eacons to be replaced to warn vessels of their danger, and, in conclusion, desire such information as will allay anxiety of British subjects. Mr. Schleider also complains, under date of January 8th, that the lights in Charleston harbor have been extinguished. Among the documents is also a letter from ex-Judge Magrath, dated from Executive Department of South Carolina, saying that the activity of the pilots will prevent any serious injury or inconvenience to commerce. On the 10th instant Secretary Black replied to Lord Lyons, and sent a copy of his letter to Messrs. Schleider and Tassaro. He says that he had laid Lord Lyons' communication before the President, who would deeply regret that any injury should happen to the commerce of foreign and friendly nations, and especially that British subjects at Charleston should suffer by the anamolous state of things existing there. Secretary Black then quotes from the law to show that the jurisdiction of the Federal Government i

on notifying me of my appointment, by the concurrent vote of the two houses of the General Assembly, as a Commissioner to the President of the United States, with instructions respectfully to request the President to abstain, pending the proceedings contemplated by the action of the General Assembly, from any and all acts calculated to produce a collision of arms between the States which have seceded, or shall secede, and the Government of the United States, on the afternoon of Monday, the 21st Inst., by the mail of that day; and in disregard of a severe state of indisposition under which I had labored for some time previous, I resolved, at all hazards to myself, personally, to carry out so far as I could, the patriotic wishes of the Legislature. By the earliest conveyance, I reached Richmond on the evening of the succeeding day, (Tuesday, 22d,) and having had an interview with your Excellency and my Co-Commissioners, proceeded by the morning train of cars the next day (Wednesday, 23r

"Deluge" in Tennessee. --The Tennessee River is higher at this time than it has been since the year 1847. The freshet has occasioned heavy losses. Many farmers residing near the river have been forced to leave their residences. It has not been an unusual sight to see houses, barns, and in some cases even residences, borne away by the almost irresistible current. The large brick block, known as the Stevenson block of this city, is almost a total wreck, having fallen in. Hay, corn, fences, houses, &c., have been swept away.--A great many cattle and hogs, we understand, have been drowned. The losses have been very heavy. The abundance of water, and the scarcity of money, are playing "fearful havoc" with the people.--Chattanooga (Tenn.) Advertiser, 24th ult.

or the sailing of the ship, as will be seen, were issued before I reached Washington. After receiving the letter, and willingly adopting the most favorable construction of its expressions, I resolved to remain in Washington until after Monday, when the Message would go to the two Houses. I listened to its reading in the Senate with pleasure and can only refer to the newspapers for its contents, as no copies were printed and obtained by me before I left Washington, on Tuesday morning, the 29th inst. On Monday afternoon, I bade my adieus to the President, in the accompanying letter, marked No. 4, to which I received his reply. The morning newspapers contained the rumor that the proceeding had been adopted of mounting guns on the land side of Fortress Monroe, and in my letter I deemed it no way inappropriate to call the attention of the President to those rumors. Thus has terminated my mission to the President under the legislative resolutions. I trust that the result of the

At the points, however, that bear upon Sumter, South Carolina still continues to concentrate her forces, and when the struggle does come it will be terrible. Important Correspondence between the ministers of foreign Powers and the Secretary of State. Washington, Jan. 31.--It appears from official sources, that on the 27th of January, Mr. Schleider wrote to the Secretary of State, Mr. Black, informing him that he had received a letter from the Bremen Consul at Charleston, stating that the consignee of the "Copernicus" had tendered duties at the Custom House, which were refused, and from this the Consul infers that the functionaries there are acting no longer for the United States, and the Minister therefore asks how are the Bremen captains and consignees of goods imported from Bremen in Bremen vessels to any port

Seward says all will be right--Mr. Everett Thinks not. We have been furnished with the following extract of a letter dated "Washington, D. C., Jan. 29," from a highly respectable gentleman to a member of the Virginia Senate: "I spent a very pleasant afternoon, on yesterday, with Mr. Everett, at a friends's house, in Georgetown. He says that Seward assured him on Thursday last that all things would yet come right, but declined giving his reasons for so thinking; but that he (Mr. E.) has no hope of an adjustment, or even peaceable separation."
