From Washington. Washington, Dec. 7, --The Putnam Phalanx, a visiting company from New Hampshire, visited the President to- day, and were courteously received. They were reviewed by Messrs. Floyd and Toucey. They visited the tomb of Washington yesterday. They left for home this afternoon. There is a better feeling to-day among the Congressmen. It is believed a strong movement is being initiated outside of Congress for a Southern Convention as foreshadowed by the National Intelligencer. The President has given assurance that he will not reinforce the forts of Charleston harbor. Maj. Anderson, at Fort Moultrie, has not asked for more troops. The best feeling prevails between the garrison and the citizens. All the members of the select committee of 33 will serve except Boyce and Hawkins. --Hamilton, of Texas, has not yet arrived.
