gress may prohibit it, and that the people have an undisputed right to exclude slaves. Why not, by terminating their territorial condition, determine this controversy. The same course might now properly be adopted with all the Territories of the United States. In each of the Territories there are, now, small settlements scattered along the lines of transit. Within five years, the least populous will contain sufficient population for a representative in Congress. Dacotah, Washington, Nevada and Jefferson, are destined soon to be as familiar to us as Kansas and Nebraska. It is well worthy the consideration of the old States, whether it is not better to dispense with all Territorial organizations — always expensive and turbulent — and, at once, to carve the whole into States of convenient size, for admission. This was the Jeffersonian plan, which did not contemplate Territories, but States. It was also sanctioned by General Taylor, and, but for his death, would have been a

Since the last publication which we have seen of your Excellency's views (in reply to the Baltimore Committee,) the Governor of Kentucky has issued a call for the assembling of the Legislature of that State on the 17th of January. That of Virginia, called, it is true, primarily for the consideration of another subject, but its convocation hastened by the present crisis, meets on the 7th of the same month. That of Tennessee, also, we believe, will meet in regular session in a short time; and although we cannot pretend to divine what their action will be, yet it seems to us impossible for Maryland to act with them unless she is promptly put in a condition to do so. We cannot state what course the Senate would pursue in case the Legislature should be convened; but in view of the fact that the impression has gone abroad among the people of Maryland that the Legislature, if called together by your Excellency

A settlement on such basis would be repugnant to no moral sense, would leave no room for heart-burnings, and would be essentially indestructible. If you will give it your support, no effort of mine shall be wanting to ensure its success. Yours, truly, Horace Greeley.Gen. Leslie Coombs, Frankfort, Ky. Letter from Major Anderson. We have been furnished by a gentleman of Baltimore, (says the Baltimore Exchange) with the following letter from the commander of the United States forces at Charleston. As anything from that quarter is of interest, we lay it before our readers: Fort Moultrie, S. C., Dec. 25, 1860.

Considerable excitement exists in consequence of the reports that the muskets removed from the Springfield Armory have been distributed over the South. Mr. Whitney, Collector of this port, late Superintendent of the Armory at Springfield, returned from there to-night, having been there, it is supposed, with reference to the report from Washington that twenty thousand muskets have recently been taken from the Armory and sold to Virginia.

[Special Dispatch to the Charlotte Bulletin.] Chester, S. C., Dec. 27. --There was a family residing in Chester, by the name of Hughes, and they were notified to leave the district, on account of their traffic with negroes and other conduct not becoming to gentlemen. They then settled in York, and lately it was found that they were drilling companies of negroes to raise an insurrection, and the Vigilance Committee got hold of it, and they were arrested, the number being found, and one was shipped to a free State, and the remaining three are in Chester jail, to await a trial due them. They received fifty lashes each, and had half the hair shaved off their heads. The way it came to be found out was by one of the negroes concerned in it, that told his master that they were goin
