1,400,000. It is hoped that circumstances may arise which will give a pacific settlement to our difficulties, and if so, every reasonable endeavor shall be made to prevent the expenditure of the whole amount; but the more certain way to produce a pacific turn to events, is to be thoroughly prepared to meet any emergency. F. W. Pickens. A South Carolina view. The following extract, says the Boston Transcript, is from a letter received by Mr. F M. Blodget, of this city, dated Charleston, S. C., January 9, 1861, from a partner in a large commission produce house in the latter city: Your favor of the 27th ult, is at hand, and its contents noted.

Governor Ellis, of North Carolina, has written to the President, informing him that the forts which were recently seized without authority will be promptly restored to the custody of the Government, accompanied by a becoming expression of his condemnation of the lawless act. This conduct stands out in marked contrast with the revolutionary proceedings elsewhere. Secretary Toucey has received the following dispatch from Flag-officer Armstrong, commanding Pensacola Navy-Yard: "Armed bodies of Florida and Alabama troops appeared before the gate of the Navy-Yard and demanded possession. Having no means of resistance, I surrendered and hauled down my flag. They are now in possession." Capt. Farran, Commander in the Yard, has notified the Department of his resignation. A dispatch to the Florida Senator says: "We repaired down here and capture

Resolved, That we regard the Republican party, which, to use the language of Jefferson, "has wriggled itself into power under the auspices of morality, " as embodying the policy that Great Britain has pursued for a quarter of a century in endeavoring to equalize the races on this continent — to reduce white men to a forbidden levunerating labor return to thousands now out of employment, and suffering from the stubborn refusal of the Republican party to grant the South her just rights under the Constitution. Resolved, That Southern slaveholders, as truly said by Thomas Jefferson, are "the natural allies of Northern laborers;" that the votes of Southern slaveholders in Congress have repeatedly saved them from oppression; that the voices of the slaveholder Jackson preserved the Northern masses from a moneyed oligarchy

There were then employed at that work one officer and one hundred and twenty workmen, independent of the regular garrison. On the evening of the 26th ultimo, Major Robert Anderson, First Artillery, in command of the troops in Charleston harbor, apprehensive of the safety of his command from the insecurity of the fort, and having reason to believe that the South Carolinians contemplated or were prepared to proceed teady when occasion offers, to bind together the broken Union, and resume her place of loyalty and devotion.

l immediately into service companies, with their officers, somewhat on the principles of volunteers, and to form them into a regiment by appointing field officers. I have made a call of this kind for one regiment at present, and appointed Colonel Maxey Gregg, a brave and able officer, to command it. A portion of this company is in actual position on Sullivan's Island, and other companies for it are rapidly arriving. This regiment is for six months.--If a regiment of men enlisted for twelve months be raised, it will require about $200,000 to equip and support it. The regiment for six months, under Colonel Gregg, will be at an expense of about $100,000. If the other regiment of enlisted men for six months be found necessary, it will be an additional expense of $100,000. I, therefore, most respectfully recommend that some provision be made for the pay and support of these regiments in such manner as the wisdom of the Legislature may adopt. I recommend, also, that the bill wh
