ible threats, with a view of menacing and scaring the Southern Government. Fortunately, Mr. Davis is not the man to be annoyed by these missiles of the fanatics. Mr. Davis has sent a special messenger with dispatches to Gov. Pickens, of South Carolina. As to the purport of these dispatches, there are many conjectures, "wise and otherwise," which I do not consider worth the ink and paper that it would require to detail them. It is impossible for any outsider to know the contents of secrett has, however, several very excellent and able men in its administrative departments, and we may yet hope from them a repudiation of the partisanship that appears to have influenced their own selection. Such men are Hon. C. G. Memminger, of South Carolina, and Hon. L. P. Walker, of Alabama, gentlemen who have ever exhibited an independence of party in emergencies requiring devotion to their country lone. Captain Armstrong. The result of the Court of Inquiry in the matter of Capt. Arm

. He did not believe secession was a constitutional measure. If the framers of the Constitution had in tended it to be there, they would have put it there. If the States had been forced into the Federal compact, they might have some excuse; but as it was voluntarily entered into, he believed they had no right to secede from it. He was, however, opposed to coercion. The Constitution gave the Government no such power. This Government could never be kept together by force. If South Carolina were to be conquered by force, no power could make her send representatives to Congress. Secession he looked upon as a revolutionary measure. He wanted the matter settled without war. If there were a war, how could the matter be settled after it was over, when treasure had been spent and thousands of citizens slaughtered? [He denied the imputation that he or his people were submissionists. But if to rally around the flag of the country constituted a submissionist, he was one. Wh

Man with two wives. --William T. Cummings was arraigned before the Mayor yesterday for having more wives than the law allows. He is charged with marrying and taking to wife one Josephine Donnella, having before married Sarah E. Holsworth, in Washington, D. C., at Maddux's Hotel. Both wives were present in Court. As will be seen by the list of licenses published this morning, Cummings was married in this city about a week since, to Miss Donnella. The "first female" in this drama of human life, says she can establish the fact of her marriage by respectable witnesses, some of whom are in Washington and some in South Carolina. In order to allow her time to do so, the case was continued until the 9th inst., and the man with two wives sent to jail, consoled and attended by the presence of neither of the dear creatures.

The cat after the Rats. The town is all agog over a most amusing caricature of Lincoln and the Seceding States, in which the former is represented as a ferocious looking cat, with one paw on that un-fortunate rat, Virginia, whilst the rest of her sisters are scampering for dear life. South Carolina leads the race, Mississippi and Georgia are next, Alabama and Florida are going it neck, then comes Louisiana, whilst Texas has barely escaped the right paw of Grimalkin, which nearly touches the tail of the fugitive prey. In one corner is a large rat lying on the flat of his back, with his head off, the United States flag waving over him, and beneath, the inscription, "The Union must and shall be preserved." Virginia is held fairly in the cat's sinister paw, whilst out of his month comes the words: "Nothing is going wrong. Nothing really hurts anybody. Nobody is suffering anything," and the unhappy victim consoles himself with the exclamation, "We can go out on the 4th of July as
