THE NEW YORK HERALD. WHOLE NO. 8847. MORNING EDITI ON—WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1860. THE SOUTHERN CRISIS. Bespatches from Washington, Charles- ton, Richmond and Louisville. Proceedings of the South Caro- lina Legislature. GEN, SCOTT CALLED T0 WASHINGTON, UNIGN MEETING IN LOUISVILLE, KY ARMAMENT OF VIRGINIA, Bary Bey ae THE REPORTS FROM WASHINGTON. ‘Wasmixctor, Noy. 27, 1860. ‘The President and Cabinet are very dotirens that Gen, Roott should be present here during the approaching ses- pion ef Congress, and be was accordingly summoned by telegraph yesterday to repair hither forthwith. A de- spatch was, however, recelved by Secretary Floyd this evening, that owing to the sudden il!ness of General Scott tu New York it will be impossible for him to come on. ‘Fe announcement has caused a great deal of uneasiness tm all circles here. It je understood here that immediately on the assem- Ditng of Congress next week, a caucus of the Southern men who intend to take their seats, will be called—at Jeast of the conservative portion of them—and the pro- Dabdility is that all the members will attend it, when the present condition of the country will be discussed, We grievances under which the South now suffers will De seb forth, and some basis laid down for pacifi- cation and the settlement of all the difficulties which beset us. When these matters are in fair ‘raining, and the Southern members understand each other, the conservative members from the North will be imvited to eome into the caucus, and the whole business ‘will be discussed in solemn council. From all that has Deen said here about this measure, it seems likely that a repert upon the state of the country will be agreed upon, to be presented te Congress, and that it will recommend ‘the calling of s convention of all the States, to come to ome arrangement whereby the differences can be finally settled and the negro kept out of politics in fatare. ‘The Hon. Jabez L. M. Curry, of A'abama, ins private letter, gives a flat contradiction to the report that he is against secession. ‘The anxieties of all men here who love the Union and fee no remedy in disunion for any of the evils of which tbe slaveholding States, after years of endurance, most Jostly complain, are increased by the intelligence, public and private, that bas reached here to day. Tt cannot be doubted by any save those who will not Delleve what is reported from reliable sources, or who ave not access to those copious mountains of informa- tien which the press and the Post Office contain, that the ‘Union is on the eve of subversion and destruction. South Carolina ts bent on quick work. Disunion is ‘the work by day and the dream by night of almost every man and woman there. Senator Chestaut says #0. Senatoor Hammond sys ashe will ‘will certainly go out on the 17th or 1$ib of December at alleonts, They all regret that a commissioner had not been appointed in time to reach Washingtoa at the open- ing of the session of Congrees. This regret is quite ua- necessary, 28 he will certainly not be recstved come when be may. To receive or recognise sach an ambateador ‘would be a surrender by the general government of the whole position tt occupies. ‘The preparation for hard times is manifested by the Jedies of tho South with a epirit worthy of the noblest cause the St. Cecelia and the race balle are to be given op, and the cavaliers who erst Ggured as managers, are ‘edi opiabed to save thetr money and tholr vigor for othe porposes—exchanging the dance for the march, the music for the camnon, the ballroom for the battlefield. Domestic uniforms are becoming all the rage among ‘the military companies. Southern railroad compaaics are comntermanding tbeir orders for Northern tron, belleving that after secession they will get it elsewhere free of daty Mr. Hager, the Chasleston Postmaster, has notife:! the public that, while holding on ts bis office for their con venience, be will promptly resign when Soath Carolina Beceden. ‘The prayer for the President of the Uaited States was omitted in the Charleston Fpiscopal churches on Sunday ‘art. MRETING OF THE CABINPT. Another protracted seasion of the Cabinet was held to- day. The meneage and reports of Secretaries were under conrideration. The former, as also those of the latter, wre ready to be put in type. Moch baz been said and more written respecting the meazage of tbe President touching the questions at issue between the North and the South. If both sections will ‘dut follow the wise and reasonable recommendations of the President, the fearful and alarming crisis that is upon us may beaverted. He agrees with the South that they Bave just cause to comriatn of the North, but that they can settle and adjust their grievar ces and procure the repara ton required better ia the Union than out of it, He is understood to recommend a genera! convention of all the States for the purpose of discussing calmly and deliber- Stely the questions at eeue. If the two sections, after s fair bearing on both sides, cannot arrange the differences, if the North refuse to concede the just and equitable de- mands of the South, such af repealing the obnoxious laws ‘that are now upon the statute books in many of the ‘Stater, and guaranteeing to the Soath her jast rights un- der (he constitution, then, if they must separate, let it be im perce. ‘The President matnwaina that by @ litte concession and forbearance on both sides tbe impending disasters may be averted. The President maintains thats State has not the con- stitational rigbt to secede, and is sustained im this posi- ton by every member of his Cabinet except Mosars. Cobb and Thompson. He argues the question ably and siaborately, but be will not attempt coercion. fie will ‘nform the Zouth as well aa the North that while he is President of the United States he is bound by his oath to eee the laws execoted Hie memage 1g mild and conciliatory throughont.

She expecta nothing from the border States, provided that Mireiseipp! would continue to buy at high prices the siaven the latter raise.

Cnamuasron, 8. C., Nov, 26, 1860, ‘The Legislature meets to-morrow evening, whea the Governor's message will be read. Benator Chesnut is stumping the upper districts of tho ‘State in favor of secession. ‘The steamship Columbia yesterday carried back to New York a large number of laborers unable to obtain employment; also two abolitionists, a male and a female. The banks will probably commence discounting to- IMPOBTANT Caantastox, Nov. 27, 1960. All the South Carolina members of the federal House of Representatives have determined to go to Washington, and reeign there. This course is taken in order more convenient!y io confer with representatives from other Southern States, The proprietors of the Institute Hall, where the Demo- cratic Convention met, have tendered the use of the hall to the State Legisiatare or convention, in case the small Pox in Columbia should increase. A petition for suspension wis presented to tho banks to-day, but no action taken thereon. The tone of the message on federal relations gives great: tatisfaction here. In Cotambia nothtog important was done except the Governor’s message being read be/ore the Legislature. The message, among other matters of State policy, touches on direct trade, It says there can be no diffe- rence of opinion on the importance of establishing direct trade between Charleston and Liverpool in the Union. Tt was important to divert part of the commerce of the world from New York and otber Northern cities to Charleston, and thas build up commercial emportam and tupply meroban's of neighboring States. In view of the secession of South Carolina from the Union 1s becomes doubly important, The Governor recommends the State to aesome a share of the risk in establishing direct trade, and especially in the item of direct steam communication with Liverpool. He recommends the adoption of postal arrapgements to supersede the United States mails; also the enactment of laws ‘or the summary punish- ment of abolitionists tampering with slaves. He also recommends fostering the Charleston Marine Sobool as a nucleus for a pavy; also the establishment of a Southern armory by the united efforts of four or five cotton States. The Governor then takes up the subject of federal rela- tions, and says it is too late now to receive propositions for conference, and the State would be wanting in self. respect, after having deliberately decided on her course, to entertain any proposition looking to @ continuance im the present Union. We can get no better or safer guarantee than the present constitution, and that bas proved impotent to protect us against the fanaticism of the North. The institution of slavery mouget be under the exclusive control of those directly in- terested in its preservation, and not left to the meray of those who believe it to be their duty to destroy it. He then speaks against the right of coercion, and con- clades thus:—It follows, from the views presented, that the federal government cannot rightfully use force to prevent or force ber back, nor rightfully use force to prevent State from seceding, or force ber back into the Unien; bat, in the language | of the late Judge Harper, men having arms in their bands may use them, and I cannot too earnestly urge upon you the importance of arming the State at the car- Nest practicable period, and thus be prepared for the worst, It is gratifying to know that « we mast resort to arms in defexce of our rights, and a blow should be struck at South Carolina before the other States move up in line, we have the tender of volunteers from all the Southern and some of the Northern States to repair promptly to our standard and share our fortunes. We cannot pene- ‘trate the dark future; it may be filled with ashos, tears and bicod, bat let us go forward in the discharge of our duty with an unwavering trust in God and a conschous- ness that anything ie preferable to dishonor and dogra. dation, The Attorney General’s report has some ‘n- teresting details on the system of the land tax, He says over 10,000 0° acres have been returned, valued at 20 cents per scre, agreca- bly to the law of 1815, whem several of these millions were worth immensely more; be advises an alteration of the law to increase the revenue; he objects to the ays- tem of banking of the State, but considers the institu. Hons as solvent as Northern banks; he advises, tncidont- ally, @ granite capitol, at Columbia, as the capital of the Southern confeseracy. The public debt, in stocks and bonds, is $4,406,000; aggregate receipt of taxes near $000,000; average tax on lands, a fraction less than five cents per acre. The Military Committee advise the establishment of a Board of Ordnance, and the adoption of ali moans neces fary. The commitice on raising supplies, recommended nego- tating ® loan and not taxing, amd proposed issuing bonds tm small amounts, relying upon the patriotiem of the citi- zens to take up some. A reeolution was cifered to inquire into the expediency of providing ® coast police for Soath Carollza. In consequence of mber of cases of smal! pox, the Legisiature wil! probably adjourn to Charleston. THE FEELING IN RICHMOND. - Rucumosp, Nov. 97, 1960, The Charleston Review publishes a letter from ex-Preal- dent Madison on secession, written to Hoa. Alexander Rives, which bas never been published before. It was called forth by a communication in the Review, written by Rives, under the signature of ‘(A Friend to the Union and State Rights.” It is published verbatim from the manuscript, and bears no date; but one in answer to it, written by Rives, is dated January 17,1863. from it I tako the following extract — | 40 not consider the proceedings of Virginia in °98 and ‘90 a8 countenancing the doctripe that a State may at will secede from ite constitutional with the other States.

Lovievnin, Kr., Nov. 27, 1860. A citizens’ meeting, composed of all parties, was held Ingt night, which passed the minority resolations, de ploring the election of » President upon sectional issuer declaring that Kentucky hae s common interest with al! the siavebolding Siates; thatebe dont despair of justioe within the Uaion, as both houses of Congress would be opposed to the Executive; that Kenitcky will inaiet upon the repeal of the Northern statutes nullifying the Fugitive Slave law, appealing to the Southern States not to desert the common cause of the South within the Union, and resolving that Kentucky will stand by the Union till aggressions on her conetitu- tonal rights become more tatolerahle than revolution. VIRGINIA. OUR NORFOLE Norvoux, Va., Nov. 24,1860. Progress of the Secession Movement— Federal Int. rposition Regarded as of Litile Importance—A Collision Between the North and South Apparently Inevitable—The Feeling of Virginians Prior to the Late Presidential Election— Of the South— Unsuccessful Attempis to Bacile Servile In- surrection— The Cotion Trade, de. ‘The wish of secomsion grows stronger every day, and the benefit to be dertved therefrom is discussed more fully than ever before. The course which Mr, Buchanan, as President of the United States, or anybody else, may take, isa matter of little covsideration with men who feel that their rights in the Union have been trampled upon, and their equality tn the States not conceded by those whom they have fed and clothed for #0 long a time in detriment to their own growth and importance asa people. However Virginians may dissent as regards this or that policy in the inevitable collision between the States North and South, honor is dearer than all else, and the attempt to march federal troops through her territory for the purpose of invading and subjugating the people of a sister Southern State will assuredly be taken at open declaration of war against the sovereign people of ‘the sovereign Btate of Virginia, and will be met with all the force of arms which an excited and outraged popu- lace can muster.
