aid: I am just from Washington, where I have been in close consultation with all our Southern friends. They are unanimous, and their urgent request is not to delay at all, and the very last thing urged upon me by my friends of Georgia, of Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, and Texas, and from every other Southern State there, was to take out South Carolina the instant you can; and now the members are panic struck, and urge that we forthwith scamper off to Charleston. It does not seem t present Senator from Tennessee, discusses the question of secession in a letter to the Nashville Union. He admits the probability of a dissolution of the Union by the 4th of March, regarding it as certain that South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi will have seceded before that time. He then proceeds to show that on the 4th of March, 1861, when the new administration is installed, the majority of the Senate will belong to the party which elected Mr. Lincoln. On the first

From South Carolina. Charleston, Dec. 19. --The Convention assembled this morning. An encouraging prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Curtis. There were 160 members present.

Georgia Legislature. Milledonville, Dec. 19. --A meeting of members of the Legislature favoring co-operation, and urging a Convention of such Southern States as desire co-operation, has issued an address signed by fifty-two members, to South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi and Florida. The address concludes thus: "Our people must be united. Our common interests must be preserved. Our common movement must be successful. Common dangers must be avoided. Our equality — our honor shall be preserved. All these can devise a co-operation. Not for our enemies, but for ourselves, our safety, our children, our peace, our necessities, we beseech you so to order your action as that consultation and co-operation shall not be defeated, but secured. "Nearly all our sister Southern States are even at this writing, moving to this end. We believe all — most certainly a very large majority — will unite in such a Convention.

the small-pox broken out as an epidemic in Columbia. The night was one of anxiety and gloom, in spite of the conciliatory resolutions passed in the House in the morning. A South Carolina member thinks it not improbable that the Commissioners sent to his State from other Southern States may succeed in inducing her to postpone secession until early in January. Hon. Mr. Lamar telegraphs from Mississippi that separate State secession is certain. The same comes from a prominent citizen of Alabama. Wade's speech yesterday was listened to by an immense audience. He was violent as usual in regard to slavery, but took care to guard his position by saying that he spoke only for himself and not for the other Senators belonging to his party. He was very pompous in his manner, but his pomposity dwindled into pitiable embarrassment when Senator Powell, of Kentucky, demanded to know whether he sustained Gov. Dennison in refusing to deliver up a fugitive from justice. I believe that ev
