of the Society. He afterwards stated that the choir would give a like amount to make Lieutenant. General Winfield Scott a lite member, and subsequently he said that as Mr. Buchanan had lately given evidence of a disposition to do his duty to the Constitution and the Union, they would also contribute the amount necessary to create him a life member. The feeling thus started in the choir now extended to the body of the church. One lady began a subscription to make Governor Hicks, of Maryland, a life member, another contribution towards the amount necessary to make President Lincoln a member, and a gentleman in the congregation proposed the same compliment to Hon. Mr. Stevens, of Georgia. Cuba Pitying America.

ith a commission from Gov. Pickens. From our telegraphic dispatches, published this morning, we think it is evident that the Captain of the brig St. Pierre has completely "sold" the valiant crew of the Star of the West. The officers of the latter vessel, probably pretty well frightened at the prompt welcome given them by the Cadets at Morris' Island, yielded a ready credence to the facetious yarn of the crew of the St. Pierre, to the effect that she had not been permitted to enter Charleston harbor because they hoisted the U. S. flag.--To our Southern friends, we need hardly say that the whole story was a jest; that the St. Pierre has gone to Savannah by the direction of her consignees, and that the guns of our batteries had no more to do with her change of destination than the guns of Gibraltar.--But for the enlightenment of the Northern newspapers, we may say at once, that we have no objection to merchant vessels, bearing the flag of the United States, or of any other foreign n

Fort Caswell has not been occupied, strictly speaking, by State troops, but by citizens, mainly of Brunswick county. That a large sympathy with these citizens exists throughout the State is certain, and it is also certain that even among those who may have thought the movement premature, there is a determination sustain them if necessary. Gov. Ellis cannot, as Governor of the State, while in the Union, officially recognize the occupation of these forts, which is, in truth, under any view of the case so far, only a trespass, the talk about tr

of universal comment, not alone in this city, but in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, (as it was in type there and published in whole or part after the telegraph announced its delivery,) during Saturday night, yesterday, and this morning. Coming down from the Senate, Hunter, Toombs, Benjamin and Slidell, stopped into the telegraph and transmitted their views of it to their districts. Debarkation of the Star of the West's troops. The Star of the West landed her troops at Governor's Island, New York, Saturday.--The Herald says: The debarkation of the troops was accomplished at half-past 7 o'clock in the morning. During the previous night the Star of the West was considerably inconvenienced by the large masses of ice floating in the river, and two anchors were wrenched away. She left her anchorage in the harbor — a position she had maintained since her arrival — and steamed into the slack water to avoid the floes of ice. She then passed down the bay to Robbin's Reef, a

[From the Cuban (Havana) Messenger, Jan. 8] The Dis-United States.--In view of the present aspect of affairs in the Confederacy of North America, heretofore known as the United States, we fear that this name can no longer properly belong to that people; and although we lament, bitterly, the sad result that is now threatening the peace and prosperity of the Union, and feel as keenly as the staunchest "Union" man the terrible consequences that must ensue to every branch of industry and enterprise at its complete dismemberment, yet we fear that it is now inevitable, and the world will point to the condition of the States as an unden

ance of the Senators during the delivery of Seward's speech, says: During the delivery of this remarkable production, the Republican leaders presented a strange array of physiognomies. Senator Hale sat uneasily, seeming as though he argued himself into a condition not to expect anything, and yet was constantly rebelling against it, and inquiring of himself what was the use of all this talk. Senator Sumner caressed his head with an unpleasant air of dissatisfaction. Senator Foot, of Vermont, smiled a placid smile, as is his wont Senator Wilson--made of more partisan stuff — bit his lip to disguise his discontent. Senator Wade sat stiff, with rugged earnestness, and, with fingers intertwisted, twirled his thumbs; while Senator King preserved that equanimity which he rarely permits to be ruffled. He sat up straight, his hands in his pockets, his head embedded on the top of his paunchy protuberance, looking like Falstaff at the Boar's Head waiting for Bardolph and the mug of sa

in the State of Louisiana. The North Carolina forts. The Wilmington (N. C.) Journal, of Monday afternoon, speaking of the occupation of the North Carolina forts, says: Fort Macon, has not, to our knowledge, been occupied at all. Fort Caswell has not been occupied, strictly speaking, by State troops, but by citizens, mainly of Brunswick county. That a large sympathy with these citizens exists throughout the State is certain, and it is also certain that even among those who may havse so far, only a trespass, the talk about treason and all that to the contrary notwithstanding. We feel pretty certain that it was designed that the cutter Forward, under the command of Lieut. Nones, should have slipped down with a force for Fort Caswell; but the design was given up when it could no longer be executed secretly, and of course not without a collision.
