The Secession Movement at the South. The Message of the Governor of South Carolina.--No Retreat for the Palmetto State. --Position of the Border States. &c., &c., &c. The Governor of South Carolina has sent in his message to the Legislature. He thinks temporary postal arrangements can be made with Adams & Co,'s Express until those of a permanent character can be entered into., The duties of the Governor of South Carolina "in future" will be so much more arduous than in the past, that the salary of the office should be increased and a private secretary allowed. Referring to the laws of the new republic on the subject of treason, he says: The general recognition by the citizens of South Carolina of their allegiance to the State, and that obedience to the Federal Government ceases as soon as the State withdraws from the Union and asserts her sovereignty, satisfies me that she will have no traitors in her limits; but a wise precaution can result in no harm, and may be the

Runaway. --A horse, attached to Adams & Co.'s Express wagon, while standing in front of their office yesterday morning, started off and ran down the street at furious speed. A little white boy was in the wagon at the time, and his position, it may be imagined, was very perilous.

What did he mean ? Mr. Seward explained that he meant, after all Congressional means had failed, to assemble in Convention the people of the whole Union. If this failed, then to advise Senators to stand in the breach for the Union. Mr. Mason said all this meant force, and bloodshed, and tyranny. The Union was already dissolved, and he hoped his people could not be deceived by this species of reasoning. The discussion continued at great length between Mason, Seward, Cameron, and Douglas. Mr. Hale subsequently made a long Union speech. He was followed by Mr. Douglas. Adjourned. House.--The Senate bill authorizing a branch of the Alexandria, Loudoun and Hampshire Railroad to Georgetown, was passed. Night sessions for debate only were agreed upon. The House went into Committee of the Whole on the Pension bill. The Cherokee purchase was debated. Mr. Adams, of Mass., predicted that the Southern Confederacy would be an ignominious failure.

The seizure of the New Orleans Mint, &c. There can be no doubt of the truth of the seizure of the New Orleans mint and customhouse by the Louisiana revolutionists, that comes this morning by telegraph. To-day, the Treasury Department were notified by Adams & Co.'s express, that A. J. Guirot, the Superintendent of the New Orleans mint, and Assistant United States Treasurer there, had refused to pay a draft of the Department for $300,000, placed in their hands for transfer to Philadelphia. It is supposed at the Department, that in these seizures a million of the money of the Government have fallen into the hands of the revolutionists. Guirot's answer, on the presentation of the draft, was that "the money in his custody was no longer the property of the United States, but of the Republic of Louisiana."--Washington Star, Saturday.
