in, leads me to believe that the separate secessionists will elect seventy-five delegates out of one hundred. The ordinance will probably be passed on the 9th day of January. It is thought that Mississippi will secede on the same day. There is no truth in the reports of large Union gains in Georgia. On the contrary, it is thought by well-informed men in that State that the rejection by the Republican Senators of Mr. Toombs' proposition for constitutional amendments, will induce Mr. Stephens to declare in favor of immediate secession. Gov. Moore issued a proclamation to-day, convening the Legislature of Alabama, to provide, by State laws, for any emergency that may arise from the action of the Convention. The Legislature will assemble on the 14th of January. The Convention meets on the 7th. Mobile, Dec. 21.--The election for delegates to the State Convention, took place to-day.--The separate State Secession ticket in this city is elected by a thousand majority.

Pickens, Governor and Commander-in Chief in and over the State of South Carolina: Whereas the good people of this State, in Convention assembled, by an Ordinance, unanimously adopted and ratified, on the twentieth day of December, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty, repealed an Ordinance of the people of this State, adopted on the twenty-third day of May, in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and eighty-eight, and have thereby dissolved the Union between the State of South Carolina and other States, under the name of the United States of America: I, therefore, as Governor and Commander-in-Chief, in and over the State of South Carolina, by virtue of authority in me vested, do hereby proclaim to the world that this State is, as she has a right to be, a separate, sovereign, free, and independent State; and, as such, has a right to levy war, conclude peace, negoti
all territory we now own or mayacquire between the sections, as provided in the Missouri Compromise, and now proposed by Senator Crittenden. Third The status of slavery and personal freedom in the Territories shall remain as it was when acquired; neither Congress nor Territorial Legislatures having power to change it; the Courts to determine all questions involving the title of slave propertyand personal freedom, as was provided in the Clayton compromise bill and supported by Mr. Calhoun in 1848. In addressing the Committee, Mr. Douglas said he was unwilling to believe that Senators from the North and South were going to sacrifice the country in order to preserve their political consistency or party organizations. He did not believe that the recent election by the people had decided irrevocably that they preferred disunion to yielding one iota of the extreme demands of their partizan platforms.

the able-cloth used was brought over on the "Mayflower." Among the speakers were James W. Soutler, President of the Old Dominion Society, (on whose introduction nine cheers were given for "Old Virginia,") Hansinal Hamlin, Judge Pierpont, and Wm. H. Seward. The speech of Mr. Seward was a complete evasion of the questions of the day, the closing paragraph being, perhaps, as clear as any. This is it: We have a great many statesmen who demand at once to know what the North proposes to do — Mr. Seward was a complete evasion of the questions of the day, the closing paragraph being, perhaps, as clear as any. This is it: We have a great many statesmen who demand at once to know what the North proposes to do — what the government proposes to do — whether we propose to coerce our Southern brethren back into their allegiance. They ask us, as of course they may rightfully ask, what will be the value of fraternity which is compelled! All I have to say on that subject is, that so long ago as the time of Sir Thomas More, he discovered, and set down the discovery in his writing, that there were a great many schoolmasters, and that while there were a very few who knew how to instruct children, there were a <

We understand that our Deputy U. S. Marshal, Capt. Charles Blaine, has sent on his resignation to the U. S. Marshal of Western Virginia. He says he will not serve under Lincoln. We should not be surprised to hear at any time of the resignation of the U. S. Marshal, or of the Judge of this District.--Kanawha (Va.) Star. Excitement at Pittsburg. Pittsburg, Pa.,Dec. 24. --Intense excitement exists here to-day, in consequence of its being made public that United States Quartermaster Taliaferro was negotiating for the shipment from the Alleghany Arsenal, of seventy-eight guns to Newport, near Galveston Island, Texas, and forty-six more to Ship Island, near Balize, at the mouth of the Mississippi river, the apparent object being to strip the Alleghany Arsenal, and place the guns where the secessionists could get them. Major Symington, of Maryland, in command of the arsenal, declined to give the press any information on the subject. It seems the points referred to are

It was a happy crowd, and with coon dogs, banjoes, persimmon cakes, frying-pans, &c., &c., presented quite an interesting spectacle.
