The War Department bas neither given an order nor received any communication on the subject.

RY Woop may rs a rg eBaee sete ean York Herald, whose ‘‘good things” none appre- ciate more than ourself, published a day or two since the following brief paragraph : “ Candidate jor Lincoln's Crean — Douglas Wallach, of the Washington —to which we can but reply—Ahem !—they will insist on making aman of importance of us, whether our consents or not. We recol- lect that during the administration of Pierce, the same paper gave us credit for writing an im- portant portion of one of his annual messages; saying of one portion of it—That’s Marcy's wri- ting; of another, that’s Cyshing’s, and of still another, that’s Doug Wallach’s. Fifty times, too, itinsist upon paying us the compliment, in those days, of attributing editorial articles from our own pen, at times to Pierce’s pen; others to Cushing’s; others, again, to Marcy’s, and not un- frequently to that of Jefferson Davis. Thus the Herald sought to make us famous; but Rever succeeding as capitally as we did in our effort to make its conductor famous (somewhat after the same fashion) by getting up the well- known joke about that never-to-be-forgotten “« diplomatic coat” made in Paris to it Mr. J. G. B., in anticipation of the reception of the commis- sion for that full mission, that never went out from ‘the State Department. That joke found a lodgment in every newspaper published in the United States, and nearly every one published on the other side of the Atlantic also. For years it stuck and stuck—like the shirt of Nessus—unt!l never was poor mortal so blistered by anything of the sort, as was him of the Herald. Nevertheless there was no malice whatever on our part in get- ting it up; but purely a determination that he should net haveall the fun to himself; for he woe then in making as much aa possible out of our friends of the Administration. We take it for granted that the recollection of that ‘ diplo- matic-coat”” joke induced this effort to pay us back for it, even at this late day. But a word in the Herald’s ear. We doubt if it “sees anything green’? about the Star. In truth we are happy to know that its private opinion {s that the Ster is by no means verdant in any particular. It usually gives us credit for shrewdness and enterprise unparalleled in tle conduct of any other newspaper published in this Pegion—for too great enterprise and shrewd- ness to admit the idea that we can be ambitious to swap the profit and prestige of the Star’s well known entire independence in all matters, for the doubdtfal honor, and, in these times, very trouble- some *nd profitiess vocation of being the organ of any party or administration. Our friends of the Herald, by the by, wi!l doubtless do us the particular favor of taking oc- casion to announce, editorially, that in gracefully declining their soft impeachment about that organship of Lincoln’s administration, we are preparing to g t out, commencing next week, a new series of the Weekly Star, at the very low Price of one dollar per annum, which will prove the largest, richest, raciest, most active, news-y, and agreeable hebdominal the world ever had an opportunity to secure for buta single dollar per year! Every man, woman, and child in the country will look to Washington city throughout the next year as the point from whence intelli- gence of universal and most absorbing public interest must emanate from day to day. Already the Star’s accounts of current Washington matters are more quoted by other journals than those of any other fifty newspapers. and very great interest is taken in it’s (the Star’s) course, asthe Herald's brief two lines printed above show; and, with the Herald’s help, we intend that all our fellow- citizens everywhere shall be constantly agog to see what the Weekly Star has to say concerning what may be transpiring here. We would’nt give the prospective profits from this Dotan WEEKLY Stan, for double those of the organship at this Point of any administration or party. By the by, our fellow citizens of the Federal Metropolis, ladies and gentlemen, young and old, who may desire to keep friends at a distance Posted concerning doings and sayings here, had better lose no time in stepping into the Star office and subscribing for copies of this new series—the Dottam Wexx.t Staz—to be mailed regularly to them, every Friday morning. PRG EGS Tat Paxic Maxers, we trus., will have their labors for their pains, afterall. In New York there appears to be quite as many as elsewhere. Those in that city are evidently operators as ‘“‘bears’”’ in the stock market, aiming to ‘make their jack” out of a fall iu prices. The manner in which Virginia, Kentucky, Maryland, and Ten- nessee are now awaking to a sense of their duty to themselves in the crisis, bids fair, however, soon to spoil the sport of those in New York and elsewhere who are thus ‘operating for a fall.” The question with the people of the States named above is simply whether they will consent to have their slave property rendered st{ll more insecure, in order that the people of the States further South, whose slave property is now certainly se- cure, may, a8 some of them fancy, render it still more secure. The extreme Southern States can. not precipitate themselves even, into revolution, without well nigh entirely depriving the northern tier of slaveholding States of all hope of the future security of their slave property. Hence the even greater and more immediate interest than their own, intbeir proposed action, which the northern tier of slaveholding States really have. Under such circumstances whatcould be in worse faith towards Virginia, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, and Tennessee than the matter of the late speech of Mr. Keitt, delivered at Charleston, wherein he proclaims itto be the purpose of South Carolina alone, to pull down the pillars of the Constitution, if the other slave-holding States de- cline taking part in that undertaking? Who is there that does not perceive in that declaration, that the election of Lincuin is not the cause of, but rather the mere opportunity for the Present attitude of South Carolina with reference to the future of the South, in which her interest is—to make the most of it—nota tithe of that of ‘Virginia, Maryland, or Kentucky? Where she now loses one dollar by the escape of slaves, each of those States lose one hundred. Were ber cur- Tent scheme carried out, they would lose five thousand dollars in that way where she would lose five dollars. Yet, forsooth, Mr. Keitt claims for ber—South Carolina—the right thus to Jjeop- ardise without Virginin’s consent, her vast pro- perty-interest in slaves, under the plea of seeking greater security for slave property where it is at this moment as secure as ary property existing under the Government of the United States! —_—__.

If the banks do not come to theiraid, (whith is not likely during the present distur! times,) some of the business men will be forced to wind up. They are anxiously looking for the banks to suspend, for this will relieve them from their present embarrassing position. The mer- chants, almost to a mau, are in favor of sustaining the action 9f the State. The mowey market is more stringent than ever. Banks refuse to Thefoliowing commu- nication yg in the Mercury this morning: “To the Editor of the Charleston Mercury:—We that our banks do not take some ac- tion to meet the present crisis.

No honorable man desires to repudiate his indebtedness, though our little State is going out of the Union.” The er Soe! of the convention of the cotton States, for the of adopting course-trade policy with the North, carried out in this State and Georg! factory at Cheraw is receiving heavy orders for the southern trade. There is a disposition to buy such northern gad asour merchants may now have on hand; but no new orders will be given to northern manufacturers, except for such articles as are indispensably necessary, and not procurable here. irs to be no dis] There ap; ition—whatever course events may take—to n f the Federal Qa: Hire adr iogen o wern| 2 In the arsenal there are 30,000 ‘atand or the belt arms, with an abundance of ammunition It is im charge of the Washington Light Infai A probably by grad of the General Government protect the public property. The dispatch feet ech Mr. Breckinridge stumping the cotton States in favor of union was much commented upon ; but the idea meets with no favor in this quarter. Some even 0° so far as to threaten to give him a coat of tar and feathers should he attempt to speak against secession in South Carolina. The United States Court in this State is without a judge. President Buchanan has appointed no succeseor to Judge McGrath, nor could any person bere be found willing to accept it if made. All the other Federal officers will abandon their posts the moment secession breaks forth. The ladies of this State bave started a subscrip- tion to procure a suitable testimonial for Caleb Cushing, in appreciation of his services in the defense of the constitutional rights of the South. The proposed testjmonial is a miniature on silver of the brig James Gray, which hoisted the Pal- metto flag on entering the harbor a few days ago. The brig belongs to the Cushing Brothers. “Bhe delegates to the convention, which meets on the 17th of December, will be chosen accord- ing to legislative districts. None but men known to be in favor of secession will be elected. In fact, it will be required that each man whose name is on the ticket ll pledge himself to vote $e the oceans of the State prior to the first of january, i North Carolina, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware are not relied upon to join in the secession movement.
