TRAITORS AND TREASON. NORTH AND SOUTH. The Charleston Courier sees a " melancholy evidence of the decline of public virtue in the fact that so few Carolinians and other southern ers have resigned their offices under the general government to join that of the seceding States." Now we are inclined to think that if the Courier of Charleston would but open an exchange with that of Rutland, and a few other papers of us class in the North-or what would be still better, conld fie present discouraged editor of the afore said traitorous sheet come to the North in person and strike hands with his aiders and abettors here, he would be led to look more brightly upon thP future in view of the aid.and comfort, which he would receive from a few of his old friends, the original douchfaced democrats always the " d.rt eating " allies of slavery propagandists. We don't pretend to say that he would meet Mk lRrmUmWmrrrta the trnack' of the slave power and that there are still fewer amrngus who don't begin to see that in the "compromises" so glibly talked about, and which the South claim from the North, is only another name for an entire surrender of a principle which they have contended for, for the past twenty years, and in defence of which, in 18-18-50, were arrayed the leading spirits of the democratic party, vis: Mr. Benton, Mr. Douglas, Mr. Cass, the now editor of the Rutland Courier, and other bright political stars in the democratic firma ment. Even the most devoted allies of the slave party in the northern democratic ranks are, many of them, beginning to see this. They see that when concession is talked of, that these concessions are to be made solely by the North; that for the gov ernment to do what it is its sworn duty to do to support ''the constitution" and "the laws" in the protection of government property against the raids of traitors in arms is "coeecion,'k and that when amendments of the constitution are talked of, these amendments are to be made in favor of slavery and against freedom. Mr, McClerr.and, a democratic member of Congress from Illinois, in a late speech, in speak ing of the twaddle about coercion as used by the nulliriers and their supporters, said : Vt hear, however, the clamor of coercion of co ercion of Slatet a clamor got up, if not to make us all traitor, at least to frighten us out of our pro piiety. Whitt is the foundation for this clamor ? Do the friends of the Union propose to ir.vade South Carolina for the purpose rf subjugating her people ? Do they propose to force her to send her members of Congress bik here, or to hold any Federal office, or to perform any active federal duty ? Not so. All we propose is to protect the property and jurisdiction of :he Uni ted States by defensive measu:o& no more. And is that coercion 1 Again, sir, is it coercion of a State for u to do what we are sworn to do to support "the constitution" and "the laws" and 'treaties" ..f the United States, as "the supreme laws of the land ?" Is it coercion for ns to maintain, peace abl.y if we can, FORCIBLY IF W AIUST. possession of the treasure and other property f the United States ? Is it coercion for us to stay the violent and lawless hand that would tear down the noble strccture of our Government f Nay, more, is it coercion for us to let the flag of the Union stand upon the bosom of the country, where our fathers planted it; o let the eagle of America sweep with k,.t.,, tuo WJe do mmn rf this prai nation ? Is that coercion Why, sir, it is a perversion of all language, a mockery of all ideas, to say so Rather is it co ercion lor a State to require of us to submit to her spoiliation of the forts, arsenals, dock yards, custom houses, post offit-a, aad the arms and munitions of the United States. Such submis sion, sir, in my opinion, would be m the last de gree reprehensible and disgraceful. Utter imbe cility only can tolerate; and if that be the condi tion of 'our Government, let us at once abolish it, and proclaim to the world the sad fact that the last and most auspicious experiment of free Government has signally failed. Passing by the anti-secessiou speeches and strong appeals for the preservation of the Union made by such men Etheridge, Johnson, and other democratic members of Congress from the South and whose sentiments should pnt to shame the northern panderers to the secession . movement, and those who appear as apologists of treason we would here refer briefly to a speech made in Congress on Tuesday of last week by Mr. Sickles. Mr. sickles is an able aad recognized leader of the democracy in New York, and was for a long time the editor Qf the "Dem ocratic Review," the leading organ of the party. In his speech Mr.S. stated that, in the outset, the secession movement was apparently peaceable, and "he was willing to let the disaffected States go." But he further added" that within tue last month secession had become agvess',o,u ! It bad led to the seizure of United Stut. forts, to the firing upon the United States gg, to the plunder of the United States mints and treasu 1 ries !" It had in consequence, he said, ' lost his sympathy and that of hispolitcal sspci;ites," and in conclusion he added : "I say, in the presence of this new and last " phase of the secession movement, that it can "have no friends in the North ; it can have "no ' apologists in the North, and there will soo-n " uo exception to the general denunciation w'jch t " must meet u-ilhfron. the loyal and patriot c citizens "of Vie country " Km we would say to Our south'.rn coteraporary of the Charleston Courier hois melancholy over the hick of patriotism on the part of his Own people we would gay to him, take hope ! Air. Sickles, with all experience in the wind ing ways of the dt mocracy, is surely not fully acquainted with all the lower depths of political degration to v.hich a northern, and especially a New England defender of slavery propagandisra will go, in obedience to his southern masters. We will not here more than refer to the Hon. Caleb Cushing.for his pre-eminence in intamy renders this unnecessary. But for the benefit of South Carolina secessionists, and for the -onso la; ion of such sympathizing friends here who covertly seek to give countenance and aid to them in their treasonable acts and designs, we will show them that the "good time" coming, as spo ken of by Air. Sickles, is not, as yet, quite at band and that there are still a few among us who counsel o the North farther, submission and to the South, farther aggression. In the Bangor (Me.) Union of last week we find the following highly encouraging words to southern traitors and their northern abettors. The Union says : " If the Republican party refuses to go the full length of the Crittenden amendment, which is the very least the South can or ought to take, then here in Maine not a Democrat will be found who will raise an arm against his brethren of the South. It is enough that the Black Republicans have robbed us of our glorious Union. They shall not now precipitate us into an unjustifiable and cruel civil war. From one end of the State to the other, let the cry of the Democracy be, Compromise, ob Peaceable Separation !" It is true that we are not here precisely in formed as to what the Union is going to " do abont it" in case the Republicans do not accept the Crittenden compromise nor are we better posted as to what the Union would have the de mocracy of Maine do, in case the Republicans ao cept it and tht secessionists should refuse to meet them on this ground. Moreover, the Union does not make it quite clear bow the "Black Re publicans bave robbed ns of our glorious Union' when it is well known by every intelligent per son, and admitted by the nnllifiers themselves, that the poisonous seeds of secession were sown twenty yean before the " Black Republican party was ever known or thought of, and that the sotl upon which the seed was planted has been carefully and assiduously tended by the se cessionists ever since. But traitors, abettors of '.reason, tories and malcnna , " "LCT UBVC 11C V C 1 UCCU notea tor me Clearness of their reasons in de fence of their action, and we do not know why ...ry m tool snonia make a better showing for tmself than could those o 1776. The Boston Courier, which prides itself on eeping step to the "Music nf th TTi e. formed by such "artists" as Cashing, Winthrop, Bell, Everett & Co., is for a compromise in any event no matter npon what terms and the courier s argument upon this point, is, that "we want peace V The Moloch, "King Cotton" is, in me estimation ot the Courier, the Benificent Being before whom all loyal subjects should bow down and worship, and the human sacrifices of fered to the God of the Ammonites were as noth ing compared to such as the Boston Courier wouia now yieia to "uag Cotton" for the sake of peace ! We think we venture little in saying that the people of New England in general, and of the State of Vermont in nartimlsr rlp nuite as high an estimate upon the blessings of "meek eyeu peace as ao me eaitors of the Boston Cou rier or iuuso wuw give it direction, urn wnen this leading journal of a hisrhlv resoeetable though "crushed out," party calls uDon "the peo ple to take the matter of settlement of the- 'nres- em; national aimcuities into their own hands" ana instruct meir " delegates in Congress and their representatives in the legislature to vote for -any measure" mat will tend to pacify the prime ministers of King Cotton, we think it forgets Lexington, and Bunker Hill, and tho Boston "tea party," ana shows itselt wonderfully igno rant of the true sentiment of New England an of the entire North. Now we should care little for these extremely peaceful, not to call them pusillanimous, notions of the Boston Courier was the effect confined to t tate Street, and the money kings there assem bled, and to the very few persons in Massachu . . uux Am tnus u Jg that when a respectable journal, like that of the Boston Courier, sends forth its teaching of for bearance and submission on the part of the North and encourages further exactions and aggressions on the part of the South, we are to expect that smaller Tray's, Blanche's and Sweetheart's will take up the yell. Who, then, will express sur prise when the Charleston Courier makes its moan, an i the Boston Courier makes its respon sive cry of sympathy, that the Hutand Courier should shake its mane and rush into the conflict We here for the present leave the three. Cou riers. The first is evidently disconsolate; the second is apparently shaky, end the third is we must say, a very little beligerent in its advo cacy of treason. THE RING OF TRUE METAL.

RUTLAND COUNTY TEMPERANCE SO CIETY. The twenty-fifth annual meeting of the Rut land County Temperance Society w holden at the Congregational Chapel in Rutland on Wed nesday, tho 6th of Fcb.,lS6lK James Barrett, Esq., of Rutland, in the Ctair. ' The meeting was called to order and opened with prayer by Rev.Dr. Aiken. Minutes of thelast meeting read and approved. Delegates were present fron. about half of tha towns in the county , and all were invited- to , take part in the deliberations of the meeting. On motion of Mr. Marsh of Bran don the appointment of the usual committees was dispensed with, and the Convention pro ceeded to elect officers ior the ensuing year as follows : James Barrett, of Rutland, President ; A L.o Brown of Rutland, John Howe, Jr., of BraDdon, F. Parker of Castleton, Vice Presi dents ; B. W. Burt, of Castleton, Secretary ; L Sheldon of West Rutland, B. F. Winslow of Pittsford, C.

Zimri Howj introduced and read the following resolutions, which, after ageneral dis cussion, were severally adopted : Resolved, That in the opinion of thi s Tonven tion, were the laws to prevent the traffic in in toxicat-ng liquois, enforced as they might be, there would be but little it any intoxication in Vae fetate. Resolved, That it is the imperative duty of all who are in favor of temperance and good order to be active and vigilant in &Vpting all legiti mate means to secure the faithul execution and enforcement of those laws. Resolved, That for the purpose of promoting the cause of Temperaueev we would reco nmend the formation of BandV of Hope in all our towns and villages. Adjourned without day. JAMES BARFiETT, President. B. W. Bo si, Secretary. Speech of Hon. H. Winter Davis. Mr Davis of Maryland spoke boldly and ably for the Union in the U. S. House of Representatives on Thursday of last week. In the course of his speech he said he did not wish to quarrel about words( but the Constitution and laws of the United States must be enforced ; and- those who stand across the path of that enforcement must either destroy the power of tbe United States or it will destroy them. In speaking for hisSta e he said that Maryland does not recognize the right of secession. She does not recognize the right to lepeal the supreme law. If any conven tion should be called there, of whatever charac ter, and under whatever auspices, those who should presume to inaugurate a revolution would meet with revolutionary resistance on the soil of Maryland, under the stars and stripes. They will not allow either the majority or the minority to drag them from the Union. Within Mary land are men who will assume resistance to any thing looking to armed rebellion. Union Victobt in Tennessee. Tennessee had an election an Saturday for delegates to a proposed State, and also to see whether the peo ple desired a convention to consider the state of the country and the secession question ; and as far as returns have reached ns, the Union men have swept everything by heavy majoiities, choosing a large majority of the delegates, and negativing the call for the convention itself. Returns from the western portion of the State rperesent the election of alt the Union candi dates, and the Unien majority in the State is estimated at 50,000. Tbe federal arsenal at Little Rock was seized by Arkansas volunteers on the 8th- and is now garrisoned by 100 of the traitors. It contained 9,000 muskets, a large quantity of ammunition, and 40 cannons of Capt. Bragg 's famous battery - Ssow. Ice, Wind, Rain. Rutland has heretofore held an unenviable notoriety n re gard to the article of snow, and "Sledding." We think she has redeemed nerseii in ima iwf-v. ... the (we hope) passed winter. V,e nave never known a season when he have bad a larger douj of snow belter sleighing and better hearts to enjoy it than for the past six weeks. But a sad, a sudden change has, within the past wees., stole over the waking dreams of those in our vicinity. We can say, in the language of the old recorder of the weather, "First it snew, then it blew, and then it friz horrid !" only that our weather changes of late have not been arranged precisely in this orderr On Thmsday of last week we had one of the severest storms we have ever seen in this latitude. On the succeeding day, (Friday,) all the world the "beauty wore Of promise" for a long continuation of the beautiful winter weather, which our friend of Brooklyn calls the cold term." But alas ! for all human hepes and calculations, in ther change has sud denly com upon ns, and on Tuesday of the present week we have had , perhaps, the most decided ."thaw" and rain known since Noah's flood ; and as a legitimate consequence, the snow we "boasted of, as it were, to day" has passed into the minutest "airy nothings" possible to conceive of. j Well, the trains for a time didn't make time,- mails were delayed the telegraphs didn't work to the best advantage the boys at the river sides had a good time, and as old Nature has now quieted herself, we suppose, all was for the best. New Dnca Stork. E. C- Lewis, Druggis and Town liquor agent, whose former place of business was at the corner of Main and West streets, has lately entered into copartnership with Dr. Fox of Waliingford, aud the store now oc cupied by the new firm is that lately vacated by Clark & Brothers, on Merchants' Row. One- third of the building in which the store is situat o,l ha K,. 1- J -- picaeuis a very fine, neat and tasteful appearance. Our friend Mr. Lewis now finds himself possessed of all the conveniences and ample room for the prosecution of his steadily increasing business, and we congratulate him thereon a id wish him all the success that by his enterprise and his fair dealing he deserves. At the solicitation of friends in Waliingford, Dr. Fox will not remove from there at present, but will, we believe, spend a day or two of each week in Rutland. The business at the new store will be conducted meantime by Mr. Lewis, as usu il. Large addi tions bave recently been made to the stock, which comprises about everything in that line of trade usually found in any store in city or country. l'he advertisement of Messrs. Lewis & Fox will be found in another column. G. H. Cole has opened his Saloon at the southwest corner of Merchants' Row and West street, and in the upper part of Clark's new building are Mowrey's new Daguerreotype R oorns. We had intended to speak of these, also, but find our own "opinions and sentiments" so well expressed in the following communications that we give them in lieu of anything from our pen or lead pencil. Cole's Saloon. Well, well, well ! we are a city that's a fact ! What with our gas, which is some what dear ; what with our coal, not quite so dear as it might be ; what with our robberies and settings on fire, and other crimes, we are after all towards a city in some good thinys. i he ot'ner day, while walking through Broad way, we chanced upon a corner of Perkins' Block. We opened and went in. Well, well, wi ll ! It there is anything that would lead us to bel'.eve that we were in one of the handsome sa l .ions of Broadway, New York, this would de ceive us. To be sure the room is not large enough to admit of small social tables, but the stalls instead are very neat and comfortable. The front room is very handsomely fitted up and well supplied with confectionery of the most de licious relish for children and school Misses. In the back part a corner, very snug and oui of the way, is conveniently fitted up for the steward's room and kitchen, and the larder of which ap I'taC'H.te.ur m'ittVffW Vig'ftplac'e, ready to cater for tas'es most scrupulous. With his usual Mmiliri face he dished us out a plate of oysters "in no time." But, John, they were cooked .1 little loo much. You should be careful, John, to leave them full, round und fat, with all tht juice in ihem. Ws would as lief eat a dish ol stewed chips, as overdone, wrinkled oysters. But you wi.l sut-L-eeo, Johu, for the genius is iu you When you can give us a good roat, John, soft pulpy, juicy, well seasoned, then we shall think you are "in for it." Upon the wnole this is the nicest place for a par:y of ladies aud gentlemen we have ever seen in the country. We honor Mr. Cile for this specimen of good taste, judgment and a desire to gratify the public. His private pnrlors above are very pleasant and enticing. We give bira notice that s3rae day we shall very soon take the whole family, the old lady, John, Dick, Susan, Katerina, Jonquiila, Amelia, Philopena, Kate ana ttiat orient eyea ueiiiati, all cown to " th- ijaloou," and I'll engage that Johu shall do his test. A Spy Gallehv of Fine Arts. We had the p'eas- ure to step into the new and spacious and beau tiful rooms of Frauk vlowrey, in Clark's Build ing, to day , and saw many excellent specimens of art, in its various branches. It is really worth the time just to take a view of the numerous pic tures of every style and size, and all of the very first quality of their kind. It was really sur prising to find here Amhrotypes equal to those of the very best galleries in New York. There are no better Ambrotypes made in the States than are to be found in this gallery. The Pho tographs, too, are equally excellent in their kind, and will compare with the very best made in Boston or New York. I have been acquaint ed wiih the art from its very beginning, and with all its improvements, and know that such pic tures as are shown here could only have been made by one who thoroughly understands the business, and is an artist besides. 1 should, iu justice, say that Mr. Mowrey makes ihe Patent, Double Glass Balsam Sealed Ambrotype, which alone can be expected to en dure against the corrosor of time and the at mosphere. None other have stood the test. The two glasses must be sealed together by a gum or balsam, which flows over the whole surface be tween the glasses to make them secure. Stick ing them together at the corners or at the edge will not do, as the air is left between the glasses and destroys the picture sooner or later. Be sides the color of the sealed pictures is richer. The cheap single or double glass picture is only a counterfeit, and will only satisfy such as are satisfied with a spurious article generally. A coarse and vulgar mind will betray itself in im perfect woik ; but a mind refined by a thorough training, close study of a profession, and natu rally adapted to works of taste and elegance.can onlj produce specimens which it is a pride and pleasure to possess. Much work may be safely trusted to endure; and in the case of a portrait of a relative or friend the value increases with its age, especially after the absence or death of the original. The painted photographs must be seen to be appreciated j and seen many times, for at one glance it is impossible to see and understand their excellence. Careful copies, good portraits and beautifully colored, aud neatly execrated And no better can be had iu the cities (ot the same price, or even double the price. Let every lover of the beautiful art of portraiture go and see the New Gallery. 'I understand Mr. Mow rey has been engaged in his busines iu this vil lage for about emht years, and deserves the pat ronage of the citizens for his perseverance and industry, as well as skill. He has associated with him in the new room, bis brother-in-law, Mr. J. O. Merrill, who has achieved a first class reputation as an artist in Brandon, where he has operated for several years past. R. L. A. A Decided Hit. In the course of a discus sion in the U. S. Senate last week, Mr. Cling man of Ncrth Carolina compared the secession of the South to the going out of the ten tribes of Israel, to which Mr Hale, of New Hampshire. replied that the ten tribes had left the ark of the covenant behind them when they seceded, and went to destruction so completely that nobody but God knew what bad become of them. FiBE8.-On Thursday evening last, between the hours of 8 and 9 our villagers were called out by an alarm of fire, which proved, however, to have been caused, by .be burning . . . . .i,oiltnr out of a chimney in the lower Prv v Rnme few hours later, tire was umeu.c., - i: i k the nnzht watchman at the R.

As for ourselves, we may perhaps say that we hope these suspicions mm fears are groundless. We should be very sorry to see enacted in these parts the scenes whicn took place at Utica, N. Y.. a few years since un der similar circumstances, when certain reckless young men, at the end ot what some of them may have deemed a sportive practice, found at leastone of their number dangling at the end of a the violator of a law second only in its criminality known among men Serious Accipent on the R. & W Rail- ... . . 1 1 I :n Ui V.'.rrht nmn. we are oaineu to jearu uim, iu i of the freshet oil Tuesday, an engine and lender on the R. & W.

We are glad to learn that no one else on tie en- made against the di. unionists and Meir schemes, was that delivered last week by Mr. J ohnson of Tennessee in the United Stat-s Senate. He said that a reign of terror exists in the seceding States. Tennessee will never be lashed to the car of South Carolina. Even if an ordinance to that effect is passed by the Tennessee conven tion, the people will have to be forced out of the Union at the point of the bayonet. The Union is not diswlved, hut still exists. If the old na tional flag is struck down, Mr. Johnson said he desires no more glorious winding-sheet than that same flag, no better grave than to lie beneath the ruins of the temple of American liberty. Mr. Lincoln left Springfield, III., on Mon day morning, for the East, and Washington. He was accompanied to the depot by over 1000 people, to whom, after shaking hands with his intimate friends, he spoke briefly and feelingly concluding by bidding them all an affectionate farewell. Both houses of the Pennsylvania legislature passed an act, Friday, for guaranteeing 52,800,- 000 of the new U. S. loan for $20,000,000. A well-written letter was read in the house, from Major Anderson, in response to resolutions complimenting his bravery , passed some time since and forwarded to him. The Kentucky legislature adjourned Monday noon to tbe 2uth of March . I he lexas convention adjourned Feb . 4!h to March 2d. The convention passed an ordioance favoring the formation of a southern codfedera- cy, and elected seven delegates to Montgomery. The Peace Cgsjerknce. Nothing espe cially noteworthy has transpired as yet in the Peace Conference at Washington. Lx-president Tylei has received a certificate of his election to the Virginia convention, hut announces that he shall not attend the sessions until the conference acts definitely. Mr. Bouligny of Louisiana addressed the House on Tuesday, the 5th, saying that the Lou isiana Legislature did not elect him, and he should not obey their orders. If his constituents demanded it, he would resign, but while he con tinued a member he would never forget that he Bath "to support the Constitution, and he would stand by the flag of the Union as lonij as he lived. W e notice with pleasure thnt the friends of Mr. Cole propose to give him a "benefit" next Tuesday ev ning at his new establisnmetit, cor ner of West St. and Merchant's Row, and we confidently predict tl at they will have a genuine ''good time of it. See the notice in another column. Mr. Heudley, the pedestrian, accomplished his feat of "walking lo(J consecutive hours without sleep or rest," at Franklin Hall last week so, we are told. The President elect has accej ted the invita tions to Albany and Trenton, and will te at Albany on Monday next and at Trenton on W ednesday. The legislatures have made ar rangements for his reception. Judge Kittredgc has resigned the office of State's Attorney for Rutland County, and the unty Judges have appointed John l'rout,Esq, of this place, to fill the vacancy. The Hon. Ira Harris, of Albany, was last week elected to the United States fenate, by the New York legislature, to succeed the Hon. Wm. H Seward. The southern confederacy will probably 'raise the wind' by levying an export duty of half a cent per pound on cotton. Ihe President has nominated Judge Black for Justice of the Supreme Court in place of Judge Daniels. Rnd Pptif f.tr Tliufriot .Tnrl.ta ir ir.kncno 1 .v. .

Col Hayne and Lieu-. Hall left Washington Friday morning for Charleston. Advices from Pensacola represent matters as f n statu quo The correspondence between the "South Cam. lina authorities and the national executive in re lation to Fort Sumter is published. They bring io ngnt no new tacts, but show considerable dip lomatic craft on the part of the South Caroli nians in attempting to blind and bluff the cabi net. Ihe tone of Secretary Holt is admirable, calm and conciliatory, but firm and outspoken, as these passages from his letters to Secretary magraia win snow : "In regard to the proposition ef Col.Hayne,'that no reinforcements will be sent to Foi t Sumter in the interval, and that the public peace will not be disturbed by any act of hostility towards Souih Carolina,' it is impossible for me to aive tou anu such assurances. The President has no authori ty to enter iuto such an agreement or under standing. As an executive officer, he is simply hound to protect the public property ,so far as this may be practicable ; and it wculd be a manifest violation of his duty to place himself under en gagements that he would not perform this duty either for an indefinite or a limited period. At the present moment it is not deemed necessary to reinforce Major Anderson, because he makes no such request, and feels quite secure in his po sition. Should his safety, however, require rein forcements, every effort will be made to supply them." In his letter demanding free use of the mails for Major Anderson, Mr. Holt says : " Should you, however, decline doings so, it is my duty lo inform you that this office will be regarded as having, under the pressure of the local government, lost its integrity ; and being no longer entitled to the confidence or support of the government of the United States, will at once be discontinued, and the postal service sup plying it suspended. The question will be re served for future consideration how much fur ther than this, fidelity to the administration of this department will require this suspension to be extended.

The unusually heavy body of snow which has fallen so far during the winter, appears to have had a bad effect npon buildings and sheds in various parts of the country. On Saturday last, the wood sheds of the R. It. Com pany in Poultney, Vt., were brought down a complete wreck. The sheds belonging to the M. E. Church in Cambridge, from the great weight of snow upon them, fell in on Friday last. I he sheds were newly erected two years ago, and the loss by their demolition will be about $300. In Salem several accidents have occurred from this cause. The Press says that "the row of sheds in rear of the White Church in this vil la. e, numbering eighteen or twenty, fell on Wednesday last, from the great body ot snow which had gathered on the roof. The same nitfht the lare wood shed of the Rutland & Washington Railroad, near the Machine Shop, also fell from the same causes." Granville Regis tcr. Georgia Retaliates. At Savannah, last Friday, Gov. Brown seized five vessels owned in New Vork, viz. : briggs R W Kibbey, Gol den Lead, barques D C Murray and Adjuster, and schooner Julia A Hal lock This is proba bly in retaliation for the seizure of arms, desti ? ed for Georgia, in New York. ' Reparation on both Sides. A dispatch from Savannah states that the New York mer chant vessels have been released. The muskets seized by the New York police on the steamer Monticello, some time since, were uncondition ally placed in charge of G B Lamar, Saturday, who immediately telegraphed the fact to the collector of Savannah. The Postmaster at Mobile denies to tbe Post Office Department that letters passing through his office have been violated. l.s -a - - ti.. .rmorv building, at Windsor wer i . . j m the amount ol Dr. Riblee of Montp-lier Hj rvtoro (mm his Visit W the E.urop" ..-r- Qa Monday of last week, r" fcT nfl yn otohu j (.MAhaW fel into a I"1 on Of Chester ocnou . . hot water and wa iwv ' . . a : ' iLaAwiniv .

' Edward Manchester, formerly of Benning ton, arrived home from tbe Palmetto State a few days since. He says b had a choice between three things to leave the State, to remain and join the rebels, or doo a coat of tar aud feathers. He chose the former, and withdrew in the night, ltaviog his trunk" behind, and an unsettled ac count with his employer, who was owing him 3uite a sum. Two other Bennington comrades, erome Seymour and Albert Cushman, were not so lucky, but, as Manchester says, were impress ed into the service of South Carolina. He be lieves they will never fight against the Union. UNION AND DISUNION MOVEMENTS. Warlike preparations still continue at Wash ington. A stand of arms has been supplied to the watchmen in the capitol, and all employees faithful to the government are to be supplied with Colt's revolvers. Ninety-four marines from Governor's Island, and fifty-five United States dragoons from Carlisle barracks, fully equipped, arrived in Washington on Thursday. In answer to a call of Mr. Magrath, the South Carolina secretary of State, Collector Colcock of Charleston has given an account of the busi ness done at the custom house since the State took possession of it. The receipts for the thirty six day of secession were $14,532; Um vear ic the corresponding period tbey were S6i,007. Tbe exports in the same time were $505,717, against $3,09-5,618 in tbe corresponding days last year. The failing off in the number of vessels cleared is three fourths. As the secession had not been heard of at foreign ports during tbe first part of this time and is not yet fully realized, the falling off is only a beginning of hat the record for the next few mouths will show. The collector says the prospect of future business de pends very much on whether they bave peace or war, and that if a new government is established an extended increase in tr-de and commerce may be confidently looked for.

The Norfolk ( Va ) Day Book, a strong disun ion paper, does not despair of ihe secession of that State, notwithstanding the defeat of the se cessionist in the election for tbe convenii d. It says : " Long before the vote on the secession ordinance is uUn the attitude of the North wi; be such that even the Union men will find them selves competted to Lake the very steps that were urged by the secessionist. And even il they then hesitate tbe secession party in that cooveu lion will be sufficiently strong to baa ihe r.nii. nance, and old Virgiuja will come out ali rit'ht.

The action of Georgia may be ritrht aud it may be wrong." h There was a grand secession jubilee at New Orleans, Thursday night. The city was mag nificently and extensively illuminated in honor of secession. All the public building, and larCe stores and dwellings were exceedingly brilliant with appropriate mottoes, felican flaes were flying everywhere. The people were out in great crowds, and there was general rejoicing. The South Carolina papers deny that there is any uneasiness among the slaves, but the Green viUe Patriot tells that " Peter, the slave of Mr Francis Davenport, was last week tried and con victed of insurrectionary conduct, and w.. fenced tobe hung on' the Fourth Friday in A resolution was lately proposed in tbe Miss issippi convention to the effect that reconstruc tion of the Union is impracticable and unad visa- hie. On a test vote it was laid on the table, 44 to 32, which shows that a majority of the conven tion still entertain the idea of coming back into the faiiy in some way. A. Pulmetto flag made its appearance at Glas gow, Ky , the other day. It was treated with little respect. A crowd took it in charge, placed it over a barrel of tar, after dipping- it in the same material, and burned it. Lieut T. A. Craven, commander of the U. R. steamer Mohawk, has addressed a patriotic letter to the officers of the navy urging them to stick to the Union and its flag whatever happens. Mr. Collamee presented in tbe Senate, on Thursday, Feb. 7th, a petition from citizens of Vermont, asking Congress to adopt an amend ment to tbe Constitution similar to the border States propositions. He said be was willinji to do all in the power of Congress, but not any thing which was not allowed by tne vJonstitution, which says that Congress may propose amend ments to be submitted to the States. And fur ther, if States want amendments let tbera say so by convention, and Congress must agree. If tbe States call such a convention and adopt amendments, Congress must send them to the States for ratification. But does the govern ment need more delegated power 1 He contend ed that the provision of the Constitution was per fectly plain, but none of the complaining States have taken any means to secure amendments in a constitutional way, yet Congress was asked to make amendments which somebody conjectures tbe Stales need. He never would attempt to make any such amendments, which none of the States, he said, wanted. Suppose two or three States present amendments, asking Congress to submit them to the States. In his judgment Congress could not pas on the merits of such amendments, but present them to the States as the request of certain States. He quoted as a precedent the former amendments made in 1769 when Congress took tbe same coarse. His views would govern his vole. FIRST REGIMENT U. V. M.
