interests are identical with our own, but we will not fight the battles of South Carolina while she is safe at home in bed. [Cheers]. When we appeal to those boion there, says: The resolutions offered this morning in the Synod of South Carolina were not laid on the table because they favored secession. Far from it.

"But how the subject theme may gang Let time and chanced termine, Perhaps it may turn out a song, Perhaps turn out a sermon. And, as I am somewhat at a loss, suppose I relate a very singular incident, which just at this time is dividing the attention of the neighbors with secession in South Carolina and the war in China. I shall tell the tale as it was told to me, professing to have no knowledge about the dignity of hearsay. It appears that one day last week, a negro man belonging to Dr. Tredway, who lives a few miles above Goochland Court-House, came to his master and told him that he had overheard a conversation between a negro belonging to Mr. George W. Turner, and a woman belonging to Dr. T., whom the negro in question had for a wife, in which the husband revealed a plot b
y bills in all the States that have the Constitution and the Federal laws, and will be satisfied with nothing less. Whatever may be thought of the action of South Carolina. It is now too late for her to retrace her steps, and whenever the time of division arrives, Virginia cannot be Yankeed, but most go with the South. Mr. G. of Virginia could be preserved in it; but if the question of disunion of dishonor is presented, he should say at all hazards, regardless of consequences. If South Carolina would go, let her go in peace. If she can succeed out of the Union, no man would rejoice more than himself. He did not expect civil war would follow, but if the resolutions were too milk and waterish. Mr. James Lyons supported the resolutions as they were, and urged their adoption. He approved the course of South Carolina--believed she was right — and, for one, was ready to sustain her to the last dollar he had. Dr. Garnett advocated the preamble and resolutions of the com

Washington, Dec. 3, --The President's plan South Carolina to postpone secession on the 4th of March next will hardly avail.-- As South Carolina member said to me this evening, "We have spiked that gun."

Senator Seward is willing to grant the South Almost anything, but the Tribune of this morning says, "Let the winds howl on; the free States will not surrender their principles on account of threatened disunion." Greeley's own article states the case, but takes no decided ground, so there is no day light yet. All that money, beauty, place and power, can do, will be brought to bear in favor of Union. We shall see Southerners, heretofore fiery, backing down. Messrs Cobb, Thompson, Jeff, Davis, and Fitzpatrick of Alabama, have, it is rumored, yielded to the President's pious appeal for staving off secession.
the present political troubles, is that so much of the President's Message as treats of them be referred in the House to a select committee of members from all the States, to bring forward some compromise. Many who formerly believed that South Carolina only will secede, are now satisfied from assurances from those representing Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, that these States, too, will make common cause with South Carolina.

The Supreme Court of the United States met to-day. Judge Taney and all the assistant Judges but Wayne, were present. They subsequently personally waited upon and paid their respects to President Buchanan. The members practicing at the Supreme Court Bar held a meeting and passed resolutions of respect to the memory of Judge Daniel. The Message will be sent to Congress tomorrow. Advance copies will not be sent South beyond Richmond. The Tre

[Second Dispatch] Several Southern delegations are in secret consultation to-night. Their object seems to be to secure the co-operation of the border slave States to the secession movement. While some Republicans affect to believe South Carolina only will secede, others are beginning to be alarmed. Even Sumner privately said to-day there was danger of secession spreading. The President's Message will offend the South by positive condemnation of secession, and offend the North by opposing the Personal Liberty bills. Parties claiming to be well posted, say he (the President) will recommend the General Convention view of adjustment of the difficulties. It is evident the Administration fears trouble in endeavoring to execute the Federal laws. Notwithstanding there was an appearance of studied courtesy, even cordiality, to-day, between members from the extreme sections of the Union, yet a close observer could not fail to perceive occasional flashes of indign
Congressional. Washington, Dec. 3. --Senate--In the Senate, to-day, after assembling, nothing was done save the appointment of a committee to wait on the President, and inform him that the body was in session and ready for business. It adjourned before 1 o'clock. Nearly all the Senators were in their seats, and good feeling prevailed. House.--A joint committee was appointed to wait on the President and apprise him of the organization of the House. About an hour was spent in selecting seats, which was marked by hilarity and good humor. At 1½ o'clock the House adjourned. About 200 members were present, including all the South Carolina delegates except Hon. Porcher Miles. The galleries were crowded to overflowing. The Message will be sent in at noon to-morrow
