have no whiskey.--"Humph!" grunted the head man, "I don't call dat no harvis', I don't." So is Christmas nothing if it is not merry, as Iago was nothing if not critical. We suppose, then, the 25th day of December, in the year of Grace One Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty, was, to us at least, not Christmas, for, most assuredly, to us it was not merry. We speak not of the rumors of war which were rife to the point of tainting the very air we breathe. We speak not of Massachusetts or South Carolina, of the President that is going out, or the President that is coming in. We speak not of secession or revolution. We speak only of our own peculiar aliments — of a long chill and a high fever, and a cold and a headache, on the night before the eve of the Nativity, when every hair upon our head rose up like a rebellious vassal, jealous of his sovereignty, and ached upon its own independent hook with the vigor of a forty- horse power. We speak of that fearful Christmas eve, when, followin

he former. We can't yield more than the Crittenden amendment. That they scout. It seems to me that a fight here, in this very city, is inevitable. I see but one sign of peace, and that struck my eye just a moment ago. Looking up from the paper on which I am writing, I saw Sumner sitting side by side with John Cochrane, talking earnestly. This may or may not mean anything. Cochrane is one of the best friends the South has at the North, and Sumner would hardly approach him here in the House with any other than a pacific purpose. It is thought that Crittenden and Pugh are trying to form a Union-saving combination. I have not seen one Virginian, whether member of Congress or private citizen, who does not condemn in the strongest terms Gov. Letcher's action about the cannon to fire a salute for South Carolina. The question is hotly asked, "Is Baltimore a better friend of the South than Richmond? Shall Baltimore fire a hundred guns and Richmond remain dumb?" Zed.

The New York Tribune has made a calculation that it will cost South Carolina six millions a year to support ten thousand volunteers. If ten thousand troops cost South Carolina six millions a year, how much will it cost to support an army large enough to demolish the "ten thous of the cost of transporting an invading army from the North to South Carolina, and of the additional dangers of a hot climate and its pestilele that of the army of defence. In addition to the volunteers, South Carolina can raise an army of forty thousand militia, that "cheap defenction, will be required for such a project as the subjugation of South Carolina.

Hence, besides the fifty thousand fighting men of South Carolina, there would be two hundred thousand in Virginia; or, in all thand its school, whilst felicitating themselves over the expense South Carolina (a State which produces some indispensable articles of commence

I have also a sweet morsel for those patriotic gentlemen who are doing all in their power to rend Virginia asunder by divided counsels.--The Hartford Courant, a paper which opposes Coercion and eulogizes Daniel Webster for "not denouncing South Carolina, but praising her," in the days of nullification, and so winning her over to the Union again — this paper says: "The fact is, that we of the North happen to be so situated that the best thing we can do is to do nothing, say nothing, threaten nothing, concede nothing; but just stand back, and let Virginia, Kentucky, and the other border slave States, settle this matter as they best can." So this is their game. Does any Virginian feel proud of playing into their hands? How no

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.reception of the secession news. Madison C. H., Va.,Dec. 22, 1860. I have only time to write you a line, to say that the news of the secession of South Carolina was received here with many demonstrations of delight. A "Lone Star" flag has been raised, guns fired, and bonfires burnt. Our people are fully aroused and prepared for any emergency. They believe the day for compromise is past, and that there is little hope of redressing our wrongs in the Union. Many here are for immediate secession, and all for resistance. A submissionist in Madison would be a greater curiosity than Fremont's "woolly horse." Lone Star.

Bailey, the defaulting clerk, has been surrendered by his sureties, and is now in jail. The South Carolina Commissioners have arrived. Russell has been placed in jail here for complicity with Bailey. His security was put at $500,000, and his counsel intend to apply for a habeas corpus on the ground of excessive bail. The missing bonds are $ns of Washington. The Secessionists are gratified by the recent intelligence from Maryland, Virginia, and other Southern States. The Secretary of the Treasury denies that there is any defalcation in his Department.--However, the examination into the affairs of this Department continues. The South Carolina Commissioners will center with the President to-morrow, by arrangement. The subject will then be referred to Congress in a special message, and an exciting debate is expected.

Rebellion at Pittsburg. Whilst the nation is agitated with the question of whether South Carolina will seize the Government property within her limits, we find the Government property in Pittsburg already threatened by a community which does not even pretend to be its owners, and upon a pretence so shallow and false that it low and false that it cannot possibly deceive themselves. Probably no community in the United States has had more to say about coercing South Carolina if she dared to lay her fingers on U. States property, than this same Pittsburg. What shall be done now? What have the advocates of coercing South Carolina to say in this case? low and false that it cannot possibly deceive themselves.
