ry : ‘THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON CITY: THURSDAY January 24. 1861. oo ‘Spirut of thy Morning Press ‘The Intelligencer, in referring to the alleged right of a State to absolve its relations to the Federal Government, says: yes = ‘ riorida. Lovisiana. Arkansas. Mis coma nt tu iatias 5 go out when they plence” W bat did Texas cost ws? A long and bl ‘war We bought and fonght for Califoraia. Sball Cal- fornia assume to jodge for herself when the Con- stitution is viela nd go out of the Union that prid blood and re for her?” The Constitution is not at all pleased with the Union speech of Mr Etheridge. The Repwtlican says that the great danger of convulsion is not to be apprebended from the South now, but that the seizure of our forts and the Insults offered to the national flag is stirring Bp a threatening tempest in the North. 222 One Curtain Erract of Szcrssiox will be to stimulate Farope to achieve a supply of cotton elsewhere than from our Southern States It seems that great hope is now entertained on the other side of the Atiantic that China is not long hence to furnish the desired supply of the coarser description of cotton; if not the finer, when our cotton plant may be domesticated there. But we will let Joba Mitchell (in a late Paris letter to the Charleston Merewry) explain what is expected in that connection from China; as fol- lows:— jow China, at present, produces even siz times as wench coisas as all your Southern States t together—not of the finest kind, indeed, but of The sort of which nankeen is made, ia which about three hundred millions of people are clothed every day. Yet, where that cotton grows, it is calculated that other and better cotton may grow; and the magniticent alluvial valleys of Cen’ 1 |. around the Hoan-He and the Yang-tse- vers. are certainiyascapable of ucing the most valuable kinds of that useful plant as are the valleys of the Mississippi and the Alabama. Labor, also, is far more abundant, and costs lit- erally nothing at all. Once the counrry is sud- jected, English cotton-growers may have many miilvons of iaborers, all anz ous to work for thew bare subsistence; for what would subsist one ne- gro would be a luxurious supply for five China- men. The Chinamen, too, will b@ apprentices, not slaves—the spirit of the age forb! nd so there will be no obligations te care for them, to feed and clothe them, when the work is got out ofthem. In sbort, if the cultivation once ins on those two rivers, you may bid adswuto the Man- chester and Liverpool markets; and that’s the meaning of the China war.” A Srnsation Manivzsto —We hear that an effort is being made to get signed by Virginians in Washington city, a paper for publication, setting forth that all hope of a settlement of the troubies has departed, unless Virginia promptly follows the example of the Gulf States. Of course its real purpose is just such as was the purpose of the joint telegrams of similar import sent from ‘Washington city by disunion members represent- ing Gulf States, so as to operate at the polis in se- euring the election of secessionists to the Conven- tions of the several seceded States The mischief it might otherwise accomplish will doubtless be Gefeated by the due publication of a counter manifesto from the mem:bers of the Virginia del- egation not involved with the disunion pro- gramme. The people of Virginia may expect to be plied houtly between this and the 4th of February with roorbacks upon roorbacks in which others ‘Will endeavor to hurry them into disunion, like those ennouncing that Anderson had shelled Charleston, &c , &c., 80 universally circulated througtout the extreme South just when their utter untruth could not be made known before the people thus excited were called on to vote for delegates to their several conventions. We Max “Corace” ro Dastaor rae Union, ser You May Nor “Cozrcs” ro Praszave Ir— Buch is the pesition held by Mr. Yancey in the current Alabama Convention, as will be seen by the following extract from late proceedings in that body: “We learn that quite an exciting scene cocurred {n the Alabama Cenvention after that body bad — |, by & deeided vote, to submit their action declared his t of North Ala- bama would never abide the action of that Con- Yention tf denied the right of voting upon it Yancey thereupon d-mounced the people of North Alabama as tories, traitors and rebels, and said they ought to be coerced into a submission to the decree of the Convention Mr. Davis replied that they might attempt coercion, but North Ala- bama would meet them = the line and decide the issue at the point of the bayonet.” Mr. Yancey’s pesition as thus expiained is the coolest exposure of the utter lawlessness of the dis- union movement and the means by which itis Propesed to be carried out, conceivable. It is heightened immeasurably by the earnestness of the protests of the spologis’s for the conduct of the disunionists per se, agains: the idea of the use of force by the Government even to maintain pos- Session of its property {n the South. —_——_____. Trormret Worvs —We extract the following trutbful and eloquent passage from the patriotic speech of Senator Bigler, delivered in the Senate on Tuesday last. They should be impressed on the miad of every public man of the times : “ Nor, sir, sball I attempt to trace the history of these events with the view of fastening the re- sponsibility on this or on that, by an elabo- rate array of bis'orical facts. 1 shall only look at these things so far ast may seem necessary to {m- = men with a sense of their full responsibili- ies to the couotry In the present critical epoch, aud for this purpose only. On these points the popr- lar judgment is too far matured to be disturbed by any argument of mine. Nor is it essential to my to know what that judgmentis. The nd polley have endangered it; Thecenaernenes 2 icy have e gered it country must be rescued from the disasters of civil seen an- ereby, no matter whose folly and madness have Produced the impending peril. Hi will take care ofthis. And as for the public men of the Present day, it were wiser for them to think of what Legos thm to say of them, than to indulge in dreamy anticipations about the White House, first class missions, and Cabinet places. They havea chance for glorious or Inglorious history, but none, none, sir, to gain the great prize of Ameri- can ambitico— If the statesmen of the Present Gay, the men of these presents, should them. selves incapable of performing the great mission of preserving the institutions transmitted to them by the fathers, the sooner their names are forgot- ten the brighter will be their country’s history.”’ Tar Reomorxp Raiv on THE Fapgrat Mz- TROPOLIS.—Though we have no doubt that a ore force of Baltimore rowdies stood ready not ong since to respond to thecrazy invitation of the Richmond Enquirer, to aid similar fellows pro. posed to be raked and scraped together in Vir- ginta, if posstbic, im evenying to xe forerble pos session of the public property ere before the 4th of March, it is already evident that the prepara- tions of the War Department for their Proper re- ception has so cooled their ardor as that they are, one and all, now denying their complicity with the scheme, which they have abandoned. So far as Virginia is concerned, it is certain question that no respectable man in her limits ever dreamed of taking part in the Enquirer's Proposed raid. Since the Legislature bas been in session at Richmond, public pinion there and the determined opposition of that entire body to the scheme has shamed the Exquirer out of it, too. ———— U7 The Georgia Stste Convention yesterday determined to elect ten delegates to represent the Btate in the South Congres to meet at Milledge ville on the 4th of February. The African slave trade ordinance was passed su’ ment in the peniten for the death penaity and declaring the paw not to be piracy.

Jones, a Love, John Mr. Etheridge, of Tenn » then addressed the House. In a lengthy speech he reviewed the causes that have led to the present crisis; and rec- ommended that the subject now agitating the country should be referred to the people for their adjustment at the ballot-box. Mr. Lovejoy said secession was treason, and be would listea to no compromise until the forts and public property were delivered up to the United States. He did not wish to interfere with aevey in the States where it now exists, but he woul never consent to its being extended beyond its present limits. Mr. pry, apes J thought it would bea good plan for all the members to resign, and let another election be held upon the direct issue now before the country. Mr. McPherson then addressed the House, de- nouncing secession, and said that, though he was anxious to see the country restored to peace and harmony, he would not vote for a compramise os to the true spirit of the Constitution. ‘he House then adjourned. ~~ Tuvxspay, January 24.

During the discussion of this bil!, the hour for the Pacific railroad bill arrived, and that bill was postponed until 2 o’clock. Hovsz.—aAfter the presentation of several me- morials from the citizens relative to the national crisis— Mr. Stevens, of Washington Territory, offered a resolution instructing the committee on Military Affairs to report without delay a bill in relation to the suppression of Indian hostilities in the ‘Territories of Washingtou and Oregon, and that it be made the special order for Thursday, Feb- ruary 7th Objected to, and not received. Mr. Colfax called up the bill, with amendments to the House yesterday, for faciltating communication between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Mr. Hamilton, of Texas, desired to offer an additional amendment. Mr. Colfax wisbed to know if Texas intended to remain in the Union, before amendments were received from her representatives. Mr. Hamilton said that as a citizen of that State be hoped and believed she would. She had no cause yet for absolving ber alleyiance to the Uni- ted States; and when be returned to his constit- uents it would be to bear testimony to the hon- orable conduct of the northern Representatives towerds uia State He did not believe that she had any desire to go out of the Union After a protrac! debate, the morning hour oe expired, the regular order of business was taken up.

Another conjecture is that the object of the visitors was to run the geuntlet of the sentries and spike the gure, but of course Major Anderson would not, espec during the present sus; ally jon of any movement towards actual hostilities, undertake such an en- terprise. In fact it is not actually the boat was really from Fort Sumer, but in the present feverish state of the public mind, with the wh whether secresy which is observed as to the negotiations in Progress between the Fort and the Governor's quarters, Sumter is looked upon with great susp!- cion.
