A significant fact. --In the city of Hartford, Conn., on the 22d inst., not a gun was fired, not a bell rung, nor a flag unfurled in honor of the anniversary of the birth-day of Washington.

Hartford gave a majority for Lincoln last fall.

The Washington (Feb. 22)correspondent of the Richmond Enquirer, says: "Notwithstanding the report of the Committee of the House demonstrates that there is not, and never has been, any ground for the rumor that there was an organization here in Washington, or else where to seize upon the Federal Capital, Gen. Scott continues to bring troops into the city, that his purpose is not alone to protect the Government property or enhance the pageantry of Lincoln's inauguration, is now obvious to any man of commonsense; and as a proof that there is some ulterior purpose in view, I will mention to you that I was told this morning by a member of Congress, who met with an ex-member on Saturday last, just from Boston, and who told him that the Republicans there openly declared it to be the purpose of the Federal Government to throw into Richmond a body of troops as soon as Virginia passed an Ordinance of Secession, and to make that point the basis of op

ainst hope — trusting her interests and her honor to the leader mercies of Abraham Lincoln?--For himself, he had no hesitation in saying that Virginia should now, pr a peaceful measure. The coercion of the seceded States would be attempted by Lincoln's administration. The tone of the Northern press — the declarations of their ion of Federal troops at the Federal metropolis — the reported declarations of Lincoln himself — the organization and drilling of Northern Wide-Awakes — all these coe greatest seaport in the world. Let her not, then, submit to the rule of Abraham Lincoln, but assert her rights and maintain them in the fear of God. He regreout stopping to ask who applied the torch.
