The cuuso of the delay arose from strong eas-
terly winds Betting in when the royal squadron badreached about the middle of the Atlantic.
In commenting npon the prince's arrival, theLondon press is very complimentary in its allus-
ions to the Americans. The News tf the ICth

If any thing could add to the p ibli' joy at thereturn of the Prince of Wales it woulo be the pub-lic admiration of his conduct and boi.ring duringhis sojourn among our Canadianand ovir kinsmen of he groat republic beyond theAtlantic. Wo know that a royal presence, so gra-ceful, ingenious and gentle, must win republicanh inrts; but perhaps we were hardly prepared lorthe hearty sympathy with which our American
s acknowledged the uiialiretcrt dignity, thomanly simplicity and the generous frankness of de-
meanor which uistinrmish the heir of the British
way. This is not an occasion for petty divisions
among the people, Enlarged and enlightened
views should predominate now, and after the noble
work of erecting ourselves into the high position
of a sovereign State shall have been accomplished,
we will find ample time and numerous occasions
for the settlement of nil minor dilferencos of opin-
ion. Our opinion, therefore, Is, that tho question
of State government, or no State government,
should be tested singly and alono; that it should
not bo encumbered with side Issues, that can havo
no pertinency wlintjver to the proper determina-
tion of the question. The minds of tho pooplo
should be left free and unfettered from the
fmrrttntityTottow the com-
mingling of irrelevant matters, with those which
legitimately belong to o discussion of t ho propri-
ety or impropriety of tho suggestion which tho Le-
gislature has umler consideration.

last Sunday night, between the hours of eightand nine, tho duor of the building In which Mr.Coulbert, Chas. Hampton and Col. Slerten havebeen for some time confined on a charge of mur-
der nt Pino Alto, was broken open, and the twolatter shot dead and the former wounded iu theright arm and breast. Tho person who was leftin charge of the prisoners hod chained them to apobt aud then gono down town fora few momenta,supposing them perfectly safe. The murderera,probably believing they hail killed them all, lied.Mr. Coulbert, stimulated, by fear and excitement,succeeded in breaking tho lock with which he wasconfined, and, leaving the building, proceeded In
tho direction of Mr. Lucas' house as fast as bismanacled limbs and wounds would permit, and ontho way meet some Individual to whom ho gaveinformation of the assnult. A numborof men sooncollected around the houso where the two prison-
ers lay doad und still in irons, and Dr, Black weecalled and dresBod Coulbert'a woundi Fromsomo course not clearly understood, tho citizenssoon dispersed, leaving two gentlemen in chargeof tho surviving prisoner and the bodies of hiscompanions. In a few minutes after, both thetwo men on guard camo across tho Plaza on therun, stating that the prisoner said bis woundipained him very much, and earnestly 'requestedthem to make nil haste and get the Doctor. Onreturning, Coidbort could nut bo found. Consid-
erable search was made for him that night, but noclue to his whereabout! could bo obtained. Thenext morning Dr. Black, who resides in a houseadjoining, stated thnt "his lady" heard the prisonerpass down the street by their house immediatelyafter the guard left, begging, the while, that hielife might bo spared; and that soon after she heardseveral shots bred further down tho Btreet, in thodirection he was going. About 8 o'clock in thamorning a Mexican from "California" stated thatthe prisoner was on thnt sido of tho Acequia Ma-
dre, in a jacal, badly wounded. On repairingthence, ho was found as stated, and although suf-
fering from several severe wounds, and the cold,was able to sit np and converse. He however ap-peared loth to say much regarding the uuhapnyaffair of the previous evening: but since then He
has so far recovered from his fright and the excite-
ment as to bo induced to make some further dis-
closures in regard to this dastardly murder andoutrage upon this community. He says ho lefttho room as soon as the two men on guard startedaway, hut had proceeded only a short distancewhen he was waylaid by two men who fired at '
him several times, two balls taking effect. He in-
stantly fell a though mortally woundod, when onoof tho assassins, probably supposing him to be inthe agonies of death, came up and kicked him, ex-
claiming, "D n you, you aro dead now," or inwonls io that effect, after which, having plucod hishand on his templo to ascertain if ho was still alive,quickly disappeared, As soon as he considered itsale, ho got up and, though suffering from hiswounds, hand cuffed and shackled, hobbled acrosstho acequia and ontered the jacal whero he wasfound in the morning. Dr. Black was summoned,who had his mauacles removed, dressed his wou-
nds, and had him convoyed to his own house, whereha still remains, though we believe it is the inten-
tion to removo him to Fort Fillmore Boon, for sur-
gical treatment and better protection.Tims we have very briefly stated the particular
of n double mauler of tho most anddastardly character. The murdor of tho Mines,and for which tho prisoners were in confinement,was horrible, God knows, but nothing in compari-son with this. That, so far as these three prison-er- a
were concerned, was probably done under theinfluence of excitement and the crazing effects ofliquor; this was premeditated ond accomplished byheartless men, before whose base acts hell itself ,
would pale with horror, for no others could beguilty of a crime so heinous.
Our citizens nre very Indignant, and take no painsto hide their feelings and opinions, though all ap-
pear cool and collected, May Wisdom guide theiracts il our earnest prayer. ..'

bsvs :
The visit of the Prince of Wales to the UnitedStates is a great political event, from which tho
best results may bo anticipated. It has Bwept
away absurd prejudices and has removed equallyabsurd International jeulousies. Tho people of
th.t United Slutes have recognized the ireat fact
that a prince may have just claims to their admi-
ration and respect independently of rank and posi-
tion. Un the other hand, too people of Eneland
irratefiilly acknowledge and highly value the kind-n-
and ulfjotiou which republican America has
shown to t heir future kin1;. Thus, wo believe, analliance has consolidated which will endureforth.' met ul not only of tho two na

whatever fate befalls us. 1 earm'.-t!- hope tliat weshall be saved from tho worst of all calamities, in-
ternal divisions, contentious and strifes. The
great and leading object ained at by ine in
was to produce harmony on a r:Qt line
of policy.
if the worst comes to tha worst, ns it mav, and

most imnortanco that all our people should bu united coruially in this course. This. I feel conf-
ident, can only he effected on the line of policy Iindicated. But candor compels me to say, that I
am not without hopes that, our rights may bo
maintained und our wrongs be redressed, ia the
C nion. If this can be done, it is my earnest wish.
1 think also that it is tho wish of a majority ef onr
people. If, after making an effort, wo shall fail,
then all our people will bo united in making or
udopting the lust resort tho " Ultima ratio reyuni."
Even in that 1 should look with great ap-
prehension as to the ultiiuuto result. When this
Union is dissevered, If of necessity it muat he, I
see at present but little prospect of good govern-
ment aiterwards. At lite North, 1 feel conjhlml,
that mtwrliti tcill soon ensue. And whether we
shall be belter off at the South will depend apon
ninny things that 1 am not now satisfied that we
have any assuniuco of. Revolutions are much
started than controlled, ond the men who be-
gin them, own for the best purposes and objects,seldom end them.
The American Revolution of 177C was one of
tho few exceptions to this remark that the historyof till world furnishes. Human passions are like
the winds ; when aroused they sweep everythingbefore litem in their fury. The wise and the goodwho may attempt to control them, will thems.lves
most likely become tho victims. This lias been
the of the downfall of nil Republics. Tho
Bellish. the ambitious und the bail will generally
take the lead. When the moderate men who aro
patriotic havo gouc as lor as they think right and
proper, and proposo to reconstruct, then will be
found a cluaa below thoui, governed by no princi-
ple, but personal ubjects, who will bo for pushing
uiatters luituer uuu luither, until those who sowedthe wiud will find that they have reaped the whirl-
wind. These aro my serious apprehensions.

A. J. Baker has jnst arrived from Palo Pintowith a despatch from Capt. Jack (,'arrington Pol-

The foregoing I have written at detached times,as I could have opportunity, and is very irregular,
tion will have been effected beyond remedy, nnd
the work of reorganization will be begun without

In tho new order of things, what is to be dona
"with tho Territories belonging to the United
States? This is a question easily asked, but we
presumo will not bo answered with equal facility.
What will be their political Btutus ? is another
proposition that will prove to be dificult to solve,
unless tho members' of the broken up confederacy
shall, in eomo legal form, agree upon a plan for the
disposition of the public domain and tho liquida-
tion of the uatiouol debt. Even in the case of an
arrangement of this sort, It may well be consider-
ed doubtful if, in times of a revolution like' this,
the destinies of a dependent people, like those of
a Territory, can bo disposed of to suit the conve-
nience or interest of States that once acknowledg-
ed the supremucy of the same Constitution that
we acknowledge, but that havo by their own uets
aminiied tho Constitution and ceased t. recognize
it as the paramonnt Inc. If a general breaking
up of th; Government is to bo the order of the
day; If the States exercise their right to resumo
their original sovereignty, it seems to us that the
onjanued Territories will be entitled to assume
an independent position, and ductile for themselves
what Ib best to be dune to secure for them future
tranquility and prosperity.
If, on the othor hand, the withdrawal of six or
seven StatoB shall not produce an overthrow of
the Constitution ; if the remaining twenty live or
six States shall remain faithful to the original
compact, then it is clear to our mind that the
Territories will be, in duty, bound to continue in
their present condition until they shall be formally
admitted as States, the same as they would have
been had there been no secession.
Whilst it is Incumbent upon every good citizen
ta reflect seriously upon the condition in which he
finds his beloved country now placed, and to have
anxiety for tho future of his Territory, it is at this
time premature to bo devising echemos for tho
regulation of Territorial nffairs. " Sufficient to the
day ie the evil thereof," and it will bo time enough
for us to put uur house in order when the devel-
opments shalthavo been made sufficiently clear to
nable us to act with a clear understanding df all
our rights. Precipitate movements may involve
us in difficulties from which it will not beossyto
extricate ourselves. A prudent delay can work
no prejudice to our rights or intorests, but may
greatly facilitate us in the consummation of what-
ever policy it may bo thought advisable to adept, if
the oirenmstances should bo such as to require us
to enter upon a new career.
A State Government,
Tho proposition which has been originated in
the Legislative Assembly, looking to the eatab- -
lish.n ent of a Stato tiorerniuent, to suponéis our
present imperfect and unsatisfactory system is one
that iuterests all classes of our citizens uud should
receive at their hands an impartial consideration.
It is i no way connected with tho fortunes of any
party, nor should it be viewed as a party question.
The magnitude of the interest involved ruisos it
high above and far superior to any question of
party politics that may now divide the p ajplo. If the
project shall succeed, and the machinery of a State
Government is put in operation, there will be
abundance of margin within which party men and
politicians can exercise themselves, and advocate
their peculiar notions of policy, and support their
favorites for various offices. The adoption of a
Constitution will have tho effect of giving the vo
ters a wider range in the selection of public ser-
vants, ami clothe them wilh full power to declare
who shall, and who shall not, fill all tho various
positions, from the office of Governor down to the
most insignificant placeman in the new Common'
wealth. In this regard the power of the people
will be nnliniited, and in tho exorcise of that pow
er It will be theirown fault if they do not select
men for office who will have the most watchful care
for the welfare of the State,
For the time being, then, would It not be acting
the part of wisdom to disregard party question- s-to let thorn reBt, whilst we1 arc engaged In tho de-
termination of other matters that are to havo bo
momentousabearingupon our future weal? It
certainly would, and we think every true patriot ;,
every nan' who laa an eye single to tho pros- -
of his country, will look at it in the sime
might otherwise exert a baneful influence upon tho
aggregate of public sentiment. May it not bo
Imped that the desired harmony in this hhnif wil'
prevail, and that all things will move along smooth-
ly until a final decision shall havo been made by
tho voice of the people, expressed in their sover-
eign capacity.

By way of Express from Denver we learn the

in tho States up to tho 1st inst.
The South Carolina Commissioners had reached
Washington and had an interview with the Presi-
dent. Fort Mou'trie wus evacuated on tho night
uf the 2Cth of December; the gun carriages burn-

forces, occupies Fort Sumpter.
Secry. Floyd has resigned. Oenl. Bcott was
appointed as Secy, of War ni inferirá but in con-
sequence of tho dissatisfaction occasioned thereby
his name was withdrawn. It is undorstuod that
troops will be sent to Charleston.
Mr. Benjamin made a speech in the Senate on
the Slit in which he said. "We are n it permit-te-
to ignore the fact that tho determination to
secede is not confined to South Carolina, fur
t week Mississippi, Alabama and Florida will
secede, and soon after Arkansas." Tho rpoeth
was received with applause.
All the propositions in the committees of l.'l

down by the Ilepnblicans.
Tho citizens of Pittsburgh resisted tho ship-
ment of guns, that tho Secretary of War had di-

On nversl occasions we have heretofore calledattention to 'the ridiculously absurd statementsmade b; letter writers, to distant Journals, fromñamare, 'lbeacconnta which thev eivoof affair! that transpire In our midst are aometimes soerroneous that the; bear on their own faces al

People who have no opportunities for testing their
reliability.
Of thil character ii the lubjolned letter to be
found In the St Louis Republican of the 8th of
December. That the Federal office holders bad
anything whatever to do with getting up the elec
tion referred to, is so far from the truth that very
few of them knew such a thing was going on, and
the record shows that only four of them' voted, two
preferring Mr. Breckinridge and two Mr. Douglas
Nor wu there an; effort mode b; the said office
holders, to influence voters on that occasion in fa-
vor of Mr, Breckinridge.' If there were no other
reason for this coarse of action on their part,
the fact that the; did not know the voting was
going on, is sufficient to refute the charge that
the; "were instrumental, in a quiet way, in opening
the polls for the very laudable purpose of recording
their undying attachment to tho Administra
tion 4c."Whethor the result would hare been different,
hod there been a general election, thero are of
course no means of determining eicept b; surmise.
Mr. Douglass ma; or ma; not have that immense
popularity among the Mexican citizens attributed
to him by "Spectator." Not knowing how this
u weeipresi no opinion in regard to it.
'Spectator," whom we inspect ii, or was at thattime, one of tho ardent supporters of Mr, Douglas
has made a big mountain out of a and
attached an importance to this election to which
It is not at all entitled. Some three or four of
the boarders at the Fonda in conversation, on themorning of the presidential election in the States,
proposed to open books here for the purpose of
seeing what would be result among those of tho
American population who would seo proper to re
cord their preference. There was no effortsmude
by an; part; to run his favorite ahead of the other
candidates. Everything waa conducted quietly
and in good order.
The friends of Mr. Breckinridge were qnite
well satisfied with the result, but the; did aotexult over their victory in such a manner as would
warrant "Spectator" in going oh in a conniption
fit, or getting eicited to such a dogree as to make
it necessary for him to adopt the usual tactics of
politicians and explain at full length how hii oppo-
nents resorted to underhanded means in order toprevent a fair expression of sentiment. Tho only
thing that was the matter with Mr. Douglas in
Santa Fe, on the 6th of November was pretty
much the tame as in the States. He dld'nt getvotes enough.
Here is the letter:
Sam Fi, Now Mexico, Nov. 7. 1800.
Mr. Editor: Yesterday, the Fedsral officeholder!and their attache!, effervescing with loyalty to theillustrioas Jeemi, were instrumental, in a quietway, in opening a poll at tho Fonda or Tavern, for
tbe very laúdame purpose or recording their undying attachment to the Administration that givesthem tat ornees ana nut little to do.
The result was altogether different from whatwas anticipated by the getters up of the moonshineelection. Instead of Bukckinriduu receiving allthe votes, he only beat Donnus twelve. Hadail the guesta of the hotel voted who are known tobe Douirlaaitei, notwithstanding the outside pres
sure from the Palacio, Buck and Brock's cohortswould hare been greatly in the minority. The re-
sult will be forwarded to Item, as evidence thatthe; did not desert him in his last extremity.Biia i vote all toiu was just one more than a bakersdozen, aod Abraham'ewas acareo half that number.Had there been general notice of the election, in-
stead of mere!; placarding it, at the eleveath hour,
on one of the pillara of the portal of the Fonda.
and the accustomed number ol voting places opea
the Mexicans, who are almost to a man in favor of
Doiioiai, wonld then have voted, which would
have thrown the Administration candidate so far
behind that his most ardent supporters would
have seriously debated the question amongst them
selves, whether or not thsv had been supporting
a candidate whose politic J future died at the pre-
cise moment of his nomination as the disunion
candidate for the Presidency.Truly yours, c.

The following glowing and des
cription of tbe passage of the English part; with
the Prince of Wales over the Pennsylvania railway,
is from a correspondent of the London Times:
After passing the great Cambria ironworks, thescenery soon changes, and the track lays for milesoetween mountains and up a frorge, clotned frombase to summit with the densest foliage. At anytime of the year such a ravine would be grand andbeautiful, but now, when the coming winter hasroused the forest into a quick warm life of color,and robed the mountains in celestial tints likerainbows, there wu a solemn gorgeousness aboutme pose that is utterly Indescribable, i be eyeranged over mountain and valle; till tbe mind wassaturated with their burning richness, and youturned as if for relief from the great sheen of tintsto look upon the aoft unfathomable bine of the dis-
tant ranges, or watched the itripes of fieec; mistgathering with the fall of night, draping tho hillsin silvery streaks, like the haze over Turner'! gor-
geous paintings. Thii wu the entrance whichbegins tlie ssaent of the Allegheny mountains, upwhich and amid such scenes the train was to wind.For long, long miles it pulled, and toiled, andstruggled painfull; upwards, but always shut in be-
tween thiss masses of colored hills, stretching upwards on each side like feathered tapestry. Atlost the twin emerged from the gorgeous defilunear Kitisnning mountain, half way up tbe summit of the Alleghauies, and nearly IHOU feet abovethe line at Pittsburgh. What a view was gotfrom here It was like looking down through aprism upon the landscape from the summit of tholtigi Kulm. Distance had softened off the warmdeep, bright glow of the changing trees into a richmaze of gentle color, so varied vet ao equal to itsvariations, that it seemed like one grand arabes-
que of nature, a vast pasture, which covered thover; mountains, and shone up through the softblue mists that gathered in the vail in gleamsof color like jewels under water. The sun badset, but its train of rainbow l ght was still brilli-
ant in the west, shedding a farowoll fervor over thehills, and gliding down the valleys in yellow beams,filling them with an atmosphere of void. On oneside in the distance all was light and lile, and gor-
geous rays; while up in the east remóreselos nightcame crowding on. stilting out the brilliant wood-
land with a dull gray haze, and making the moun-
tains loom heavily through the darkness from
the heavens like clouds of a coming storm, Closeand sheer above the train rose a precipice, worriedaud riven iuto such fantastic ruins u ouly tbe de-
cay of mountains show stained with raw blotcheswhose trinkhid down into old graypinnacles, draped with a silent moss, and hire andthere long creepers dropping softly down from
stone to stone in rills of vegetation, rustling and
waving genuy wun me winu. Above me roca,tike sunset clouds, the forest rose iu oil its glory,with festoons of glowing woods, like old torn ban-
ners, hanging in melancholy grandeur from theirboughs, with clumps of underwood, and sweetwild (lowers still alive with bloom, with humblutimid willows, bending in low obeisance beforethese lords of the woods: tho dark, tall, sombre,unchanging pine. Maple and sumachs, swampash and hemlocks, oaks, sycamores, larches, s
and aepuens, all crowded together in everyform and hue of leaf, in everv shan of branch, huddling their tinted leaves together like a huge pa-
vilion, to screen in and shroud from view the deep,long, silent vistas that wandered into darknessbetween their stems.
rrwa tho Ndw York nirlld.Progress of Revolnttonai-- Hov.mstiu.
Events crowd thick and fast upon us. The revolutionary movement is gaining volume u it rushes ou, and every day adds to the complications.The news from Kansas is calculated to exasperatestill more the feelings of the Southern people.n e nna mat lour or nve nunared armed outlawsthere have organized themselves into a band ofbrigands to rob and murder peaceable citizens, tocarry on a war of extermination upon slaveholdingcommunities, and to repeat on a grand scale whatJohn Brown did on a small one, It is evidentthat the enme spirit of mischief which set oo footthe raid upon Virginia in the fall of 1859, ii stillat work, and that the projected raid of these Kan-s-
outlaws upon Texas and Arkansu are part ofthe same general plan. If these brigands are notpromptly suppressed by the federal troops theywill arouse a spirit or retaliation in southerncommunities which will sweep like a devastating
plague over the whole land, and will not be stayeduntil tne country snail nave bean oeiuged withblood.
With equal steps the financial revolution is pm- -
grassing. Already many of our Southern andWestern cities sro reeling the seventv of the commercial crisis. Banks in Washington, Richmond,Philadelphia and Baltimore are seeing themselvesforced into a suspension of specie uuvment. Afinancial revulsion more dreadful than any we haveyet experienced menaces all the great interests ofthe country. VI here it will end no one has thehardihood to predict orto contemnlite. Wa areemphatically taking a leap in tho dark.
This double revolution, political and financial,
involves not alone the people or the United States.Its effects will be felt all over the whole civilizedworld. The American Revolution of 1776 led totbe French Revolution of 1789, and to the sangu-
inary wars which, following that eveut. deluged allEurope in blood. Events at tho present momentare shaping themselves into a similar course. The
hostility existing on me part ot one section or theUnion towards tin other is certainly no less bitteror intense than that which existod between thecolonies and the mother country ; and that feelingia hourly increasing in volume. At an; momentthe fatal step may be taken which will precipitatean internecine war, the ver; contemplation ofwnicn is euouga w maae onesnuuaer.
the progress ol the revolution will dorante thefinances of ever; country, and produce a commer-
cial revulsion against which no firms will be ableto stand, and which ma; even cause the banks of
land and r ranee to suspend. Thus we arebeing borne along irresistably in a movement whichthreatens to go on increuing in torca and volumetill finally it sweeps like a tempest over both hem-
ispheres. If there be yet means of avoiding theseperils, that means should not be left untried.

There are s'gni among the Republicans that
the; are dividing into Union and Disunion Repub-
licana. The latter faction, whoaa organs an the
Tribune and Pott, are throwing cold water onall
propositions of adjustment In its issue of the 4th
the IViiune devotes almost tho entire of its edi-
torial page to ridicule of such propositions, and to
irritating epithets, intended, one would think, to
influence the minds of all parties ao u to make all
attempts to close the present breach hopeleu. Itis afraid that the more tolerant and pacific senti-
ments, expressed by the Albany Journal will pre-
vail with some portion of its part;. So it threa-
tens that paper, and threatens Mr. Sewaio, who
is supposed to bo in accord with it. It does not
do this directly but it republishes an extract from
one of tho most irritating of Mr. Skw urn's spee
ches before tbe late election, and follows up the
extract with this comment npon it:
Theso are the words of a statesmen who will notstart at shadows, or run awa; because somebodybluster. And what is uure, tho timper of thisextract is the temper of the treat bodv of the Republican party, ijmllemm who forqet thil millprobably b.t:emwlai.o ii h&reajler .h
As further evidence of the disposition of the
ft'iouneand of the Republicans it represents, may
be adduced the fact, that that paper ia anxious
to show that secession ought to be and can be a
peaceful process. In this wa; it reconciles tbe
least willing of its section to that fatal measure.
Yet tbe supervisor of its news and sensatioa col
umns oughtVo be more careful than to give fre
quent admissions to such article! u the following
extract, which we find in the Tribuiu, of a letter
from Mr. T. W IIiooissos, who is a captain in
one of the wings of its division:
Evorv day is confirming the position taken bythe Worcester Disunion Convention nearly fouryears ago. that tbe Free States and Slave Statesof America are not oue nation, but two nationsbetwoen which harmony is impossible, and ultimate
separation inevitable. A dissolution of the Union is, in my opinion, a mere question of time. Itwill coins whenever tbs North takes a firm
position, however mild or moderate, andhoids to it. The longor it is delayed, the greaterwill be the accumulation of mutual hostility andthe probability of bloodshed. I wish, therefore,that ths Slave States might fulfill their presentthreats; it must come to that, sooner or later, and
every year's delay only embitters tbe feeling.
"the Union being dissolved, tne fate or Slaveryíb in the bands of tha sluves themselves. The dayof peaceful emancipation, has probably passed.That buinjr tho case, it is impossible to show whyinsureection is notas much the riizlit and dutv. oftue negroes as ol tne Italians. And this principlecernes with it tho right and duty of aUiag insur-
rection, in both cases.
Though not precisely germane to the matter, We
may remark upon these humane and godly utter'anees of the Reverend Mr.HiouiNso.1, that the au"
tlior of thorn, not eight years since, wrote and
puhlishod a series of elaborate articles to prove
that tho Amsrican Union, "however bounded,"juld be perpetual. But In the cose of a man
who shows himself, as III ioixsok does in this
letter, a moral wreck, consistency in his opinion, is
the last thing to be expected. St Louis Repub-
lican.!

Mr. Megrath, from the Gomiiitteaoniuch por- -
tloni of the Prceident'i Menas ee refera to theproperly of the United Blatas W the limita ofSouth Carolina, aaid that he preferred making hie

the Convention went Into aecret aeaaion, which
aa eontinned two honra, daring which time a nrjanimated diacoaalon took place on the report.
Commiaiioaere to Washington were appointed,
and before their eredentiala were given them, the;were mora to keep tho strictest aecrecr In regard

what couno the Government will pursue. A na-
val fleet will probebl; be forthwith dispatched to

The Committeeof were in aeniontenia;, lij end a half hours, considering various
propositions to arrest the progress of dissolution
and give peace to the country.
The amendment to the Constitution proposed
b; Mr. Crittenden to settle the tontrovers; between the North and South Onall; and forever, b;a division of the country from ocean to ocean, on
the parallel of the Missouri Compromise line, waa
tho subject of discussion. After a long debate itwas lost under the rule of the Committee requi-
ring a majority of 8. The Republicans voted in
the negative. Several other propositions were
made, but without acting on them the Committee
adjourned."
A dispatch dated New York, December 23rd,
says : " At the banquet of the New England So-
ciety last evening, Senator Seward made a speech
which occupied three quarters of an hour In deliv-
er;, in which he discussed in a style half amusing
and balT serious, the question of accession. liecounseled mild, quiet, fraternal forbearance, and
predicted that, as the secession feeling hud been
growing weaker ever since the (ith of November,
and so within sixty dsys more, the whole troublewill have passed away." At the time thil NewYork Senator waa making his harangue one Statehad airead; withdrawn from the Union.
A dispatch from Richmond, Va., bearing dateDecember 21st, says: The secession of South
Carolina seems to give great satisfaction here. Amovement la on foot to hoist the Palmetto Hag

A Washington city dispatch of the 21st nit.,says: "That at a meeting of the Committee on
the Union the following propositions ware
discussed : An enabling act for l'ike'i Peak andNew Mélico and the admission of Kansss. The
Committee adjourned without taking action. Aft-
erwards tho Republican members held a caucus,
and came to the conclusion that no proposition
eatisfactorr to the ultra Southern States, by way
of amendment to the Constitution, could be adop-
ted b; the poople, and, therefore, It was necessary
to prepare."
A correspondent of the Rerald, from Washing-
ton city, says : "There is a doubtful report that a
litter from a prominent citizen of Lancaster, Pa.,
aays, that so sure as Fort Moultrie la taken b; tho

la misma prum.-s- sagrad ha sidi rciterada por cada uno de' los Gobernadores

al gobierno general en esto Torritorio,
desdo aquel tiempo hasta la p esenteVuestra comisión es bien satisfecha que
muchos de estos oficiales federales, han
hecho estas promesas de buena fe, y han
adoptado todos los medios en su poder
para su cumplimiento. Cada Gobernador
de este Territorio exceptuando el presente
han cumplido con las nececidades del
tiempo y nunca han faltado de usar iu au
toridad de la cual están revestidos en el
efecutivo para llamar i los Ciudadanos
leales do un paiz oprimido y sufriendo, su

durante los diez y ocho mesaa pasados,
excedeu 4 aquello de cualesquiera otros

las causas que han producido tales efectos
desastrosos T El valiente, vizarroy muy

igualmente en diferentes tiempos, y el
vizarro Garlead, reconoció la superioridad
de ana fuerza mixta, haciendo ana requi

hechas baj i su administración, en medio

trar concluyentcmente: qne durante los
últimos dos ados una guerra aaagriente
é insesante ha sido proseguida por los
Nabajoes, contra los ciudadanos de nues
tro Territorio. El Secretarlo de Guerra ersu mforae de Diciembres de 1860 dice;"En Nuevo Méjico los ultrajes y depreda-
cionea délos Yndios han sido muy desca-
radas y numerosas; y se puede decir que
asi todo el Territorio ha sido infestado
por ellos durante la estación entera. Para
hacer una campada efectiva contra los
Yndlos y castigarles en una minera ejem-
plar; fué necesario llevar unagai.de por-
ción de la tropa estacionada en Yuta asi
él sur de Nuevo Méjico, hay muy poca du-
dado que estos salvajes reciban aqu í
castigo que es necesario, para reducirlos
otra vez al buen orden."
