It would seem that no defalcation at the scat of Government, however startling, can retain possession of the public mind twenty-four hours without being buried fathom deep by some unexpected develop ment of Treason. We learn, one day, of the disappearance of nearly a million dol lars, concerning which there exists only a doubt wheiher the Secretary of War or the Secretary of Ur. Interior is the greater criminal. The next, we are apprised that the commanding officer of a Federal fort ress has abandoned lhe,trust committed to his charge for the want 1 of a pitiful remf forcemeat of men to make a head against an overwhelming mob. But tins is not all The paradoxes of the hour arc not half exhausted. While the guns in the Pittsburg arsenal are being shipped a .vay to other mobs, threatening armed rebellion against the United Slates, the guns of Fort Hooltric are being spiked, to prevent their falling into the hands of avowed traitors to the American Union and Constitution I While thousands, if not millions of men, arc within call of the President, ready to defend the threatened integrity' ai d the threatened property which lie is sworn to protect, the handful of soldiers, whom he has allowed to remain there exposed to an nihilation, arc compelled to abandon their post and set lire to the implements of their craft The most reasonable solution to Col. An. derson’s movement is this: Fort Sumpter, to which helms removed his sixty-sis men, is a very strong fortress in the mouth of Charleston Ilarbor, surrounded on all sides by water. Its guns command not only the harbor, but Fort Moultrie itself. It can only be assailed by a strong naval force, such as neither South Carolina nor all the seceding Slates can send against it. Hith erto it has been garrisoned only by a squad of bricklayers, who are said to with the conspirators in the treason Con vention. By transferring his sixty-six men to Fort Sumpter, Colonel Anderson not only saves that fortress from becoming an easy prey to the mob, but he adds tenfold to the danger of attacking Fort Moultrie—he preserves the key to the port of Charleston— and he throws upon the President the responsibility of ordering him to surrender to the enemies of the Vrated States. ITe is now master of the situation. He is now no longer an expectant victim of treason iu Charleston and treason in "Washington. It is no longer a question of time merely, when the South Carolina con spirators, aided by the Fedci x\ conspira tors, shall sacrifice the hixtj -.six men and seize upon the entire property of U c Uni ted Slates in that quarter. It now becomes a question of hard knocks, of Ion", doubt ful and expensive siege to the South Caro lina rebels, or of undisguised treason on the part of the President and his Cabinet, subjecting each and even- one of them lo conviction and execution for that crime. As we view it, CoL Anderson has accom plished a skillful and patriotic &?vp d'etat; and the 41 indignation ” of the Cliar csinn dlsonlonists is altogether justifiable and well taken. But what shall we say of the homy head ed traitor in the White House, and h*s villain accomplices—the sworn defenders of the Constitution, to whom the people have committed their aggregate power for the maintenance of order and the execu tion of the laws? We arc of the opinion that no ;ood end is subserved by permit ting them longer to go nnimpcachcd. Per haps an impeachment might not he sus tained in the Senate, as that body is at present composed, hut that fact does rot relieve the representatives of the people from their duties and responsibilities in the premises. In the name of the fathers of the Republic, let a record he made against them! If they arc lost to all sense of fehamc, let us see whether they aro also void of all sense of fear. THE PITTSBURGH BOW-DE-DO It is lime for the pcoplg to indicate their desire to have peace, and, hy the exercise of their sovereignty, to prevent treacher ous conspirators at Washington from tiring the power of the Republic in aiding and comforting their confederates of the Cotton States. With such views of the necessities of the crisis, we arc ready to justify the ac tion of the people of Pittsburgh in pre venting the shipment to Texas of the arms and r. unilions of war now iu that city, and under order for removal to local ities where, through the complicity of the President and his associate villains, they would fall Into the hand - of the enemies of the Government within thirty diys. The Piltshurgura have a proper appreciation of the duties which devolve upon them as citi zens of the Republic, and we beg to assure them, that if war is to he begun hy those who plot against the pence of the country, it can begin in co heller place than Alle ghany county. Let them stand to their position; and let Springfield, Massachu setts, follow their patriotic example. SLAVERY IX NEW 3IEXICO. We have not yet been permitted to see the proposed compromise of Hr. Charles Fronde Adams, of Massachusetts, involv ing the question of slavery in New Mexi co, hut we asc prepared to indorse fully the objection raised by Judge Kellogg, of this State, to wit: that slavery as it exists by law in New Mexico is the very worst slavery in the United States, and lienee it is the wrong point at which to begin a compromise. Whether the number of slaves in that Territory be fifty, or five hundred, or five thousand, it is no fault of Hie law if there he not as many white slaves at black ones. Both kinds are tole rated by the Territorial statutes, and the difference between white slavery'and black relates only to the length of time in which the serf may be cuffed and thrashed by* Hs master. If we are to have a comprom&c let it take some other starting point. Democratic State Convention* The Democratic State Central Cummilte of Blinols have called a Convention to meet at Springfield on the 16th of January, to take ac tion on the present crisis in our national affairs.

The Empire Mills, a large five stoiy stone building in Milwaukee, were destroyed by fire on Christmas morning. About 1,000 bushels of wheat, a huge amount of mUlstnlls, some 25 or SO tons of shorts, and sevsral hun dred barrels of flour were destroyed with the building. The Mills were owned by Hayt 6c Seaman, and ran by Medbury & Hayt. They were valued at about *70,000, with an insu rance of about $31,000. Their brand of flour has always stood A 1 In market. Mr. Lincoln and 3ZaJ. Anderson, The cases of the President elect and the Commander of Fort Moultrie furnish a pood il’ustration of the working* of oar Republican institutions. During the Black Hawk Indian War of 1833, Maj. Anderson was Inspector- General of (he Illinois volunteers, of one of (be companies of which Mr. Lincoln was Cap tain. Now the former has been promoted to the position of a Major of the First Artillery, and the latter to that of Commander-In-Chief of the Army and Navy. The one is in charge of a post to which the eyes of the nation are directed, and with the defence ol which the greatest interests arc connected; aud the other has been chosen by his countrymen as th e Ex ecutive of their Government. The new rela tions which the two are to assume, will, we doubt not, prove as honorable to each as did their earlier associations, and their respective duties be as faithfully performed.— Toledo Blade. THE CITY. The WEATnER.—The sleighing holds on, and the owners of turnouts arc making the best use thereof. The St. George's Anniversary.—To-night, the evening of St. John’s Day, the St.George's Benevolent Association give their Anniversary Festival at Bryan Hall.

All passed off most happily. Not the Last.—lt should not have been In ferred, as it was in some quarters, that the lecture to-night is the last appearance of Mr. Gough in this city. It is not.

Nothing to Wea.il —The suits to be do nated from among those worn at the Calico Dress Ball, may be sent to the Ministry at Large, No. 109 Randolph street, where they will be distributed to those who have Nothing to Wear.

Almost daily, reports are coming into the City Marshal’s o files from gentlemen who have left their cutters for a moment and found their robes gone upon their return.

Holden, Esq., of the Chicago Fireman’s Insurance Company, Miller «S Wilmartb, Insurance Agents, and Messrs. Bascomc «fc Palmer, agents of the Me tropolitan Insurance Company, of New York City. This is handsomely done all round, gentlemen, both in the excellent desert of Mr. Harais, and the generous appreciation of these gentlemen under-writers. • Cocktebixit Moxet.— William M. Rhodes v.is arrested on Wednesday for pasting coun terfeit money. The examination of the ease was continued. Mr. Rhodes was arrested by officer Asa Williams for passing twenty-five dollars of counterfeit bills on the Merchants’ Rank of St. Louis, upon Charles Davidson, a clerk of Scott, Keen «fc Co., clothiers, ut No. 145 Lake street. After his arrest he was searched, and SOO more of the bogus stuff was found in Ida possession, all la lives.. Upon being questioned, Rhodes alleged that be was a conductor on the Mississippi Central R. R., and received the money from W. 11. Mason, Holley Springs, Miss., Treasurer of the com pany. City Marshal Ltpvton telegraphed at once to the Treasurer and found that the facts were as be averred. This certainly relieves the young man somewhat, but at the same time imposes upon the Treasurer of that company an un common degree of blundering carelessness. Mr. Rhodes gave gall for further examina tion, Messrs. Arthur and Forsyth of the 111 Central railroad becoming Ids sureties. Many of the bills fonnd upon him are most bnug lingly executed, while others arc calculated to deceive unless closely scrutinized. The fig in the npper comers are badly blurred as well as the word “fire,” in the centre of the bill. At the lower right hand comer is a represen tation of negroes rolling a ho£>hcad.

CHICAGO, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1860. Tb« Cmlleo Ball. It was a success, and this mention was all we coold give to the Calico Ball in our last is sue. Tbe “ returns” arc not yet entirely in, bat tbe net receipts will exceed SIOOO, and probably SI2OO. And this is to be disbursed through the Ministry at Large to our city poo r, not to tbe support of good Mr. Collyer who is maintained by a stipulated salary secure to him from other sources, but to feed the channels whose gates it is his mission skillfully to tend. Tbe Ball was charming. Probably it was the largest public gathering of its general class ever given in Chicago. The precautions of the committee had secured the alienee of all unde sirables, end nothing marred the pleasure of the occasion. The ladies were out in all the charms of calico, aud did themselves credit in fully responding to and co-operating in the spirit of the affair. There were none, either gentleman or lady, in full dress, and the poor will doubtless be the gainers by many of the suits worn. It must bare struck every looker on, If such an idea never arose upon him before, that nev er ladies looked better, and never more charm ing:, than in the “ beautj unadorned” which was much more nearly realized in this Calico Ball than in any festive gathering known to city life. Many of the fair ones will pass half a day in preparation at a hatr-dresscr's and bear upon the floor the products of a month's dose communion with mautua-makers, en hanced by the highest cifeets of Jewelry, and yet come fir short of the pleasant triumph of this one night in plain print. Such an occa sion as this, abundantly demonstrates what every body knows, that Fashion should be a woman, and a Jealous and mischievous one at that, or she would not be thus eternally lead ing womankind, her sisters, into the folly of over-dressing, apparently taking her cue from the haberdasher's window and jewel ler’s show case, best contented when the one Is heaped upon the other, while the poor overdone mortal within, and the motor of the conglomerated finery plays about the same part in relation to the whole, as does the dum my that turns upon the peg in the cloak-room. Hut what has this got to do with the Calico Ball? Plainly, nothing. That was for the des titute, and a rich benefit U was. And yet we recall a ease of destitution developed on this very occasion in question that needs attending to. bald one gentleman to another. In our hear* iug: “ Is your wife liero in a calico dress ?” “ No, sir, {emphatically) the hot not yoi one. r ' “Then, sir, she belter call ou Mr. Collyer, to-morrow, uud fit herself out.” And so we think. We trust Mr, Collycrwill see to it that this plea Is not In vain. Clicck and Countercheck. Muggins was outraged. He was Indignant. Anger is short-lived madness. Muggins was both mad and angry, wheu on returning from a shopping excursion, In which he remem bered to have bought, separately and several ly, lour cigars, an oyster stew, three ales, an egg-uogaud a paper of Jlue-cut, he searched his pockets to fmd them well lined with bil ious looking paralellograms of pasteboard, iu the shape of cheeks. Thus, he had Spraddle & Co’s. “Good for tio cents,” and Muggwiuk’s ditto; and ditto the names of several light and heavy dealers In bibulants and fumigaats» about town. Muggins counted them up, Three dollars in checks! -■Co wonder be deemed that point reached, where, even if it be a pin’s poiul, crack goes the camel’s proverbial spine. Mug gins indulged in several severe expressions on the publicans, such undoubted sinners against specie, if not their species, who into the chan nels of their trade pour this chaff, these dry basks, representing the dimes, quarters and halves of old. An idea struck Muggins, and he struck back. Like all great minds, he act ed. The next day saw him on his rouuds again, iluggins. the ex-Prouuec Dealer, and his pleas ant features beamed vis-a-vis to those of his triced, D‘or Bagge, across one of the little ta bles at iluggwink'c. “Tivo slews.” The vocal waiter rushed to his dumb brother and bellowed into his ear, “ Two stews !” “Ttvo stews” came cavcmously up from beneath where Muggins sat, and directly came the bi valves themselves. They were dispatched to where all good oysters and, doubtless, many poor ones go. Theu came the little afterpiece, which exposes the mercenary motives of all catiug-housc men, and here loomed out Mug gins’ great idea, the Mugginsian theory ami antidote. He took out a handful of cat pasteboard, much iu the style of milk-tickets, and gravely .-electing two, Landed them over to Mugg winks. The astonished oystermau read: GOOD FOR 2 5 CENTS iIEONJDAS MUGGINS. Muggwiuks demurred to that style of Ihinrr, to whom thus Muggins: “Sir, on divers and sundry occasions I have nought the shadow of your counter for that bivalvuUr and maltcsc refreshment which is your specialty.* I have on each occasion given you some good and reliable form of money of the period. True some of these bank-note paper conclu. sions may have been remote and the allusions far fetched, I refer mauiiV.-lly to the Induce ments for you to seek special redemption at the BankofFalthin Conildeace county, Egypt, however I gave thee alt But you,Muggwinks, you basely returned my business transaction* with you by tilling my pocket full of your p:istc-board cheeks. Is not the name of Mug gins as good as Muggwlnks, and If either of us must bear about lu an inexpensive but clumsy form, the name of the other, let it be you for awhile instead of me. You gave me checks, I respond with counter-checks?” By this time Muggwinks caught his breath again, and leaning over he wildly asked Hug gins and IVor Bugge to “ secess.’* Tlic amia ble pair were shortly after seen holding a Se cession Convention in a restaurant over the way, and thus they were heard of all over town.

At a special meeting of tbe City Tract and Missionary Society, held at tbe rooms of tbe Young Men’s Christian Association, Monday, Dec. iMth, called for tbe propose cf devising means of relief for tbe worthy poor, in con nection with Missionary and Sabbath School labors, Ilev. Robert Patterson was appointed Clialrmaa, and E. E. Dickinson, Secretary. Statements were made by the Secretary of tbe Society respecting t his feature of its opera tions during tbe last two winters. It appeared that about twenty-live hundred dollars bad been given in charity during each of the two winter?, and dispensed without any expense to the Society by Missionaries, Superintendents of Mission Sabbath Schools, and visitors con nected with them; that these charities have been bestowed almost exclusively upon families of thu sick; upon widows and children: and of this class, upon those only whose children were in week-day and Sablmlh Schools. That all relief was withheld from the intemperate and those whom we could not hope to elevate and improve in *OOOO6OIIOO with the charity. It was also shown that by •his systematic and intelligent method of re lief much imposition was avoided, many beg gar children turned from their trade, and hun dreds gathered into school Whereupon, it was unanimously resolved to solicit from the humane and benevolent, generally, a charity hind for the present winter to be dispensed on similar principles and by the same class of un paid Chriptian agents, as during past winters. The following named gentlemen were ap pointed a Committee to cany out the above resolution: B. W, Raymond, IX ,T. Ely, Dr. L. D. Boone, J. V. Kibwell, E. Wood, T. M. avert, E. F. Dickinson, Secretary. Pmc at Casville.— About one o’clock yes terday morning the residence of Capt. E. G. Sutherland iu CArville, at tbo comer of 3lon tcrey street and Calumet avenue, was partial ly destroyed by lire. The building was owned by Mr. Sullivan and was damaged to tbo amount of SSOO. -The fire was probably caused by a defective chimney. The fire was reached by several of the steamers, which did good service iu staying the progress of the flames, which might otherwise have caused great damage, the house being situated contiguous to a Urge number of wooden buildings. Law Intelligence.— Under this head, to day, among other decisions, we report a ease In relation to what constitutes such a cloud upon title as equity will .remove. The cir cumstances of that ease are not likely to be of frequent occurrence, but we conceive the prin ciple laid down as applicable to the cases of judgment recovered against persons of the same name as those in whom the title to real estate vests. These eases, we arc assured by those whose business it is to compile abstracts of title, arise daily; and the ease reported fur nishes the method ot guarding against the effects of such judgments. The decision, teaching the construction of the Homestead Exemption act, will be regard ed with interest by the Iprofetsloa and by those householders who may be intending to avail themselves of the provisions of the act. A Holiday Invoice.—At their establish ment, Nos. 74 and TU Lake street, Messrs. Brown Brothers have by direct importation a superb assortment of Parian and China wares, In rich and elegant variety for the Holiday trade. Nothing of Hie kind of equal extent aud richness has ever been offered lu Chicago. To some and imauy of these arti cles the attention of connoisseurs and art lovers may well be invited, some of the statuettes and vases being of exquisite beauty. The whole Invoice cova rredit to the house aud the taste and liberality of our citizens, attested io by this addiilcqfto the stock of one of the oldest firms iu-tholrnranch of trade. New Music.—The wen known music house of H. M. Higgins, 119 Randolph street, has just issued one of tbe moet charming pieces of music and song to wiiicit we have listened this many a long day, Its homely theme “My Trundle Bed,” is made suggestive of trains of thought and memory which will stir mauy hearts and bring toars to ninny eyes by its sim ple and touching pathos, it is a simple song, but it will live In ii» simplicity while many more pretentious fade away. It will never be any more out of fashiou than daisies, heather bells, love of home, and home itself The Lecture to-night' at Metropolitan Hall.—lt Is gratifying toknow that in these times of excitement and' political discord, some of onr prominent citlruns have united in a request to Rev. O.IL Tiffany, of this city, to to deliver his celebrated declare on Daniel Webster. The name of Webster calls to every one the most uncompromising defence of the Union, and the most authoritative expositions of the Constitution. It will be well for us if the lecturer refreshes our recollection of these great clforts of one of our greatest statesmen. Mil Gough’s Lecture Last NiGnr.—Nev cr was John B. Gough more himself than at Metropolitan Hall last evening, lie may have been more comic in some cf his previous Lec tures, but in dramatic power, point, pathos, and highest eloquence, lie excelled all his previous efforts among us. For two hours he swayed his large audience at will. The desire and rash to hear him will now be greater than ever. Tunneling tite River.-— lt will be seen la another column that the Chicago Water Works Co. invite among other proposals for contract*, one to tuuuel the Uiver at Rush street. While they are about it, why may n:t both tho schiunandthc tunnel be enlarged to accom nioduic foot passengers? It would he a great convenience at that point, and become annual ly of more and more importance. Gone to Joliet.— Sheriff Ilesing yesterday took to Joliet Penitentiary, Hageman of Hol stein, and the pretended maniac, McKnroc. The latter went off whooping and howling like a car load of Camauehesj Dr. Congdon will prescribe for him from this out His latest phantasy in this city was pulling the hair and scratching the facial scenery of Turnkey Brown, which McEnroe did as neatly as if he was—a woman. Abusing His Family. — A man named James Roberts was lined $3 by* Justice Davis yes terday, for abusing bis family. His step daughter, Catharine Carson, a little girl about twelve years of age, testified that on Christmas day he cruelly beat and kicked hermotherand thrust her out of doors. A merry Christinas will be followed with a suitably happy New Year for James, on the Bridewell stone-hca] s. Meeting op tde Bar.— There will be a meeting of the bar ai the library rooms of the Chicago Law Institute, on Friday, the 2S:h day of December, A.
