From Washington. [special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Washington, Dec. 27, 1860. Seward's proposition about dividing the Territories and admitting them as States immediately, as given in my telegraphic dispatch of yesterday, seems to be yet unkown to the papers. I see they do not mention it this morning. But my informant assures me that he received it from a most reliable source — from Winter Davis, and from two gentlemen more trustworthy than he. I passed Senators Hunter and Toombs yesterday as they were walking down from the Capitol after the session of the Committee of Thirteen. Their faces were clouded and sad. If Seward submitted his proposal, they doubtless considered it as a "Yankee trick," in which no confidence was to be placed. They, and the people of Virginia as well, cannot forget that the Northern presses have declared, in language most positive, that any concessions made now will be "snatched back" the moment our troubles are over.
