peak; which certainly have convinced me, that the Southern people must now look to their own State authorities, and to them only, for their safety in the future; whether in the form of other and higher securities in the present Confederacy, or in a new Confederacy, the injured States must determine in Convention. Indeed, in the progress of events, so far, the field of deliberation may be narrowed. One State has already made her election to abandon the confederation. I think, as to South Carolina, we may safely assume that as a fact, and with which the future has nothing more to do than to establish it in history. As to three other States, and most probably four, there is every reason to believe they are prepared also to secede as soon as the acts of separation can be reduced to form. What may be the sense of other States in this great crisis, (for great it certainly is,) as to the proper measures to be adopted for their safety. I will not venture to anticipate. But the seces

The market is more easy. We quote Exchange on New York 5 per cent. premium; Philadelphia and Baltimore 2 ½ @ 3 per cent. premium. Gold 2 ½ premium. North and South Carolina notes 5 per cent, discount. Uncurrent Virginia solvent notes 2 per cent. discount. The money article of the N. O. Picayune, Nov. 26th, says: The market opened this morning with a much better feeling, which continued up to the close of business hours. Our New York dispatches report a decided improvement there, occasioned by the action of the Banks in discounting to the extent of seven millions. This, of course, aided materially in the movement of Exchange, and has reacted favorably here, as the private advices contained instructions to operate freely. On the strength of these accounts the negotiations to day were more general and extensive, resulting in sales of Sterling to the amount of about £100,000. The Cotton market responded to this change, and the business has been quite large.

Congress than any other of our public men. He entered the United States Senate when Missouri was admitted in 1821, and continued there until 1851, a period of thirty years. He never held any other office. John C. Calhoun entered the House of Representatives in 1811; served there until 1817, when he became Secretary of War under Mr. Monroe. In 1821 he was elected Vice-President, and re-elected in 1828. In 1831 he resigned the station of Vice-President to become a U. S. Senator from South Carolina. The reason for this extraordinary step was that he might champion the cause of nullification in the Senate and reply to the arguments of Mr. Webster on that subject, which were producing as extraordinary effect on the country. He continued in the Senate until 1844, when he became Secretary of State under John Tyler. In 1845 he re-entered the Senate, and was a member of it in 1850, when he died. Daniel Webster came to the House of Representatives in 1814, from New Hampshire. In
