WHOLE NO. 8858, IMPORTANT NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. Couciliatory Disposition of the Conser- vative Republicans. Forthcoming Manifesto of the President Hlect. . His Position Said to be Satisfactory to the South. THE CAUCUS OF SOUTHERN SENATORS, PACIFICATORY PROPOSITIONS FROM KENTUCKY, &e., &e., dec. THE REPORTS FROM WASHINGTON. ‘Wasmcron, Dec. 8, 1900. A caneus of Southern Senators was held to-day for the ‘purpose of considering the present state of the country, ‘and whether some plan of adjustment could not be fixed upon. While the Senators from the border States were anxious to make an effort to preserve the Union, the general impression seemed to be that this was now impos- sible, The current of opinion seemed to set strongly in favor of @ reconstruction of the Union without the New England States. The latter States are supposed to be 80 fanatical in their views as to render it improbable that ‘there should be any peace under a government to which they were parties. ‘The debate, which was participated in by nearly all the Senators present, was diverse, and covered a wide field. ‘Messrs. Pearce, Powell and Crittenden were for leaving No effort untried to save the country from dissolution. ‘The Senators from the extreme South were of opinion ‘that all efforts to even stay the revolution would prove futile. They and their people regarded the eltction of Lincoln as a declaration of war on the part of the North. Tt was asserted by many of the Senators that fo the event of reconstruction, Pennsylvania, Maryland and New Jersey, and in fact many of the Northern States, would go with the South. They never would identify themselves with the fanatics of the New England States. The caucus adjourned, however, ‘without accomplishing anything, or proposing any mode Of settlement. It is not at all likely, judging from their faction, that any will be proposed either. Many of the moderate Senators thought that propositions or modes of ‘fdjustment ought to come from the republicans, Every hour convinces the more moderate of the people bere that the Crisis Committee will prove a failure, Its Compocition gy ce 1 eat dissatisfaction, If the suggestion of Governor Winslow, of North Caro- Mina, and John Cochrane, of New York, had been followed ‘out, a much better state of things would have been the result. Senator Baker, of Oregon, despairs of any reconcilia- tion. Wasiuxotow, Dec. 8, 1860. ‘The caucus of Southern Senators was fully attended to- day, Mr. Iverson being the only one absent. Vice Presi- dent Breckinridge was present. Governor Powell, of Kentucky, offered a series of reso- lutions in favor of delay, mutual concessions, and the preservation of the Union, and supported them in an able speech, which produced a good impression. No formal reply was made, and the remainder of the seasion was conducted in a mere social, conversational manner. J Nothing locking to a practical result was done except by Senator Powell, and his resolutions were not adopted. Another meeting is to be held, but it does not appear ‘that anything in the form of a compromise that could be @atisfactory to the cotton States will pass. ‘The House committee of thirty-three have done nothing officially yet, but individual members are preparing pro- Positions which they will submit, Mr. Corwin is Said to be in favor of calling @ convention to ‘amend the constitution. Mr. Kellogg, of Illinois, is preparing a basis of settlement, which has for its main feature the settlement of all the ‘Territories upon constitutional grounds, ignoring Congres- sional and Territorial legislative interference with sla- very, leaving the people to settle the question for them- selves when they come to form a State. 5 Mr. Hamilton, of Texas, arrived here to-day, and con tradicts the reports that Texas in favor of dissolution. He ays, on the contrary, that the majority of the pooplo are Gecitodly opposed to secession; but, he adds, if all the other cotton States should unitedly determine to secede ‘Texas might then join them, ‘The President stated, in a recent conversation with gentlemen, that he intended to collect the revenue at Charleston, and in case the present Collector resignel he ‘would send an officer thore for that purpose, and if re- sisted in the performance of bis duties the present law of Congrese gave him ample power to enforee their col lection; which doubtless means that ho would place a revenue officer on board a man-of-war, and collect them ander Fort Moultrie. The President, however, does not anticipate any such necessity on bis part. Hon. Mr. Lamar, of Miesiesippi, one of the most bril liant young men in the South, has received a despateh from his district, no ing him that he had been nomi nated a® a candidate for a seat in the Convention, which which meets on the 8th of January. He intends to leave at once for Missiesippi and take stump. He is for immo- diate action THE LATEST REPORTS FROM WASHINGTON. Wasutworow, Dec. §—Fvening ‘There is at last a gleam of sunshine.

OUR MEMPHIS CORRESPONDENCE. Mxnrms, Dec. 4, 1860. Conservative Tennessee has caught the disunion fever, and men whoa month ago were horrified at the very name of disunion say that the Union must end; that it has failed in i's mission; that all hopes of conciliation are past; that we have borne the aggressions and insults of the North long enough, and upon the shoulders of the black republicans must rest the heavy responsibility of sundering this Union, A meeting was called for Friday night, Nov. 30, and about two thousand of our best citizens responded to the call. Fiery disunion specohes were made by the most con- servative leaders of the Bell and Douglas parties, which were warmly applauded. South Carolina was rapturously cheered, and the strongest Southern feeling prevailed. LOUISIANA. TRE ABOLITIONISTS IN NEW ORLEANS. (From the New Orleans Delta, Nov. 3) Yesterday morning the Mayor was informed by two of our citizens of the fact that a well known personage, named Arthur Robinson, was bandying about very ob- noxious sentiments in the shape of his anti-slavery opin- ions, disgusting to those with whom he and dangerous to the community and to himself in these feverish tintes. He came from Ireland to New York in 1864, and arrived in New Orleans in 1866, since which he worked as compositor in the Orleanian office, and was men 8 foreman in the True Witness office. He has always taken pains to air his abolitionism on every oc- casion, and was considered by most of those who knew him to be a dangerous and suspicious Lwmagl | ae stom from his pretensions to sanctimoniousness. «In response to the Mayor's questions, he admitted having conversed with free negroes on the subject of abolitionism, but re- fused to state whether he had talked with slaves on the fame subject, thongh he did not deny having done so. He was committed for examination before the ler, and, as he may escape the law, it is more than likely he will be escorted out of the fut some of our citizens, who think that at the least, if ‘was perfectly conscien- tious in denouncing Southerners and trying to alienate the obedient feelings of their slaves, he must have been very unscrupulous during four years to be living upon them. Robinson claimed and reoeived the t. cess.

Had the noble lord continued Colonial s 'y he would doubtless have entered still more fully into the spirit of the Emancipation act, and worked it out in such a manner as would long ere this have led to the adoption of similar measures in the United States, the Drazils and Cuba. Weare now dependent on slaveholding countries for cur chief supplies of cotton, tobacco and sugar— a matter’ of no ‘small importance, when we find that our annual revenue in the last two of these articles exeeeds twelve millions sterling, and that om the first depends the prosperity of all our cotton manufactures in Lancashire and elsewhere. The state of parties in America, consequent on the election of Mr. Lit celn, cannot Lut lead to much uncertainty in this country; and cur cotton interest finds itself in the position of a man having Lut onesstring t his bow, and that string in danger of breaking. There are but two sclutions of the Gordian lenot J trancallantic difficulties; either Me Southern States of the nicn will revolve on immediate secession, or they will adopt a waiting policy wniil overt acts on the part of the new ad- ministration give them color for rebellion. So far as Great Britain is concerned, the former alternative would be less damaging in’ its jesults; for a conteat be- tween the Northern and Southern sections of the republic could be of comparatively short dura feeling of the whole country, There is incal colubly greater danger from the course which the South is mort likely—we might, perhaps, say most certain— to follow. The slare States will scarcely dare the contempt of the whcle civilised world. by refusing obedience to a chief magistrate, elected according to the constitution, and who Las, as yet, given no cause whatever for offence. They went into he late election with their eyes open, and the very fact of participating in that election in- volves the necessity of recognizing the candidate of the majority, and rendering obedience to him as the properly appointed President. Should the proposed convention for deciding upon the time and manner of sccession ever meet, there are numbers of sufficiently cult and jong sighted Southern statesmen who will show that safety for the present and bope for the future lie in a waiting policy alone. ‘This policy will resemble an armed neutrality, in whieh the minority will ever be on the qui rite againét their opponents, and ready to seize the first opportunity for disunion. It'is easy to foresee what must be the effect of such action npon the commercial relations of the country, Uneertainty in mercantile affairs is posi- live danger, and the aclcption of this policy by the South will infallitly destroy the confidence of every capitalist in Burge; in other words, athern ‘planters will be cnable to find the means wherewith to carry (n_ their agricultural operations, and their slaves will hong a dead weight on their hands. The capital invested in slaves is drawn from other sources than the Scuthern Sictes, and the vast majority of those slaves are mortgaged. 1h it reasonable to suppose that any fur- ther advances will be mado by foreign capitalists when £0 much danger attends the investment? # #8 = daace eee asad cca poutieal Veeling throughout the North is the tyrannical Fugitive Slave law, by which the federal government is hound to seize all runaway ne- rork und restore them to their owners. Mr. Lincoln has ech elected to abolieh this act, and his administration will searely allow itself to be the sheriff of the South- erners, who will bitterly resent bis refusal to enforce a law which is the safeguard of their property and lives, ‘The question of ownership of the vast territories of the confederation will be a fruitful source of discord between the two seetions, and the slavehelders will scarcely keep quiet when they see those territories rapidly peopled frem the North, and entering the Us to outvote them at th behind.

" - Arrival of Rarey. THE HORSE TAMER IN THE METROPOLIS—HIS RECEP- TION HERE, ETC, Among the passengers of the steamship Asia, that ar- rived here on Friday, was the celebrated J. T. Rarey, the professor of horse taming. He took roome in the aristocratic quarters of the Fifth Avenue Hotel, where he was waited vpon by his friends and admirers during Friday evening and Saturday. He has been absent about three years, during which time he has astonished John Pull with his feats with the horse, accomplished won- ders in the land of the theoretical Frenchman, caused the Arabs of Asia to look with amazement and call upon Allah to attest his wonderful power. Tho Ishu Pacha of Turkey gave him free access amongst his well trained animals, and on visiting Russia caused the Czar to look around him for @ magician to perform the same deeds. Having shown to the Europeans that some things can be done as well as others, ho has now returned to his native country to practise his art and make our wild horses as docile as a lamb. In personal appearance Mr. Rarey is the last person that would be selected as an adept with a blooded and flery animal. He is a little below the medium height, rather slim built, light complexion, dark auburn hair, light colored mustache, of the most approved English style, witha bluish grey eye, witha stern and sharp, piercing look, and in fact, the only point in his personal appearance that would indicate to an observes +e re wet that he posseser= <r=+ suemorse. He would be taken by @ physioghomist as more of a practical person, possessing greater tact to apply his knowledge than originality ; dresses genteelly and has a pleasant and agreeable ad- drees. He left his rooms at an early hour yesterday morning to call upon friends at the St. Nicholas Hotel, and spent most of the day thus and looking after his baggage. A large number called at the Fifth Avenue Hotel during the doy to await upon him, and were obligetl to go away without seeing the lion of the day. His roome during the cvening were thronged with former acquaintances who went there to bid him welcome. Mr. Rarey leaves this city on Monday or Tuesday for Ohio, to visit bis friends, and after spending @ short time recruiting, Will again virit the metropolis and give a series of exhibiticns in our midst, at which time be will no doubt inform the public in regard to the mystery of making the wild and ferocious Cruiser as docile a8 a Lamb. Mexican Affaire—Prospect of Peace. IMPORTANT STATEMENT OF THE MEXICAN CONSUL GENERAL. {From the New Orleans | icayane of Nov. 30.) Mxxicas ConRULATE GmWERAL, New (ninans, Nov. 29, 1860. The interest manifested by many persone of calling at this Consulate, and their evident folicitate in regard to news from Mexico, arising from their desire to see peace cstablished in that republic, where they are anxioue to take their families settle themselves permanently , induce me to communicate to them, briefly, through the columns of your esteemed journal,’ the information re- ceived by the United States steamer Tennessee, which ar- rived at this port a few days ince. From this inforrna- tion the strongest presumption arises that the long de- 4 moment is about to be realized, and that very soon country, favored by nature, will offer to those who desire to settle in it those guarantees of order and quie- tude so necessary to the developement of its prosperity and greatness. It is well known that the war, which for Miree years has laid waste the country, bas bad for ite object on the part of the liberal 'y the securing of these guarantees: which, as well ax the enjoyment of civil, political and re- ligious Hiberty,, the constitution of 1857 had indeed grant- ed to nil, foreigners as well as natives. Their enemies oppose reform and contend for the of ancient abuses, in which are particularly interested the clergy, the aimy, afew large proprietors and some speculators, not all Mexicans, who enrieh themselves under their pro tection. The struggle appears to have come to an end in eccordance with reason and justice, as represented by the cat liberal mayses of the nation,’ Let us hope that the crifices which have been made, and the blood which #* been shed, will not prove fruitless, and that the Mex people, taught by the painful experience which they e undergone, will prove to the world by their pra nee and cound jn’gment how mveb they have deserved the sympathy whieh their misfortenes have inspired. an? that they may still be entitled to consideration and e#- teem, though they may have been regarded by some as an wrelvilized and enebristian 5 ‘dhe following is @ ehort compendium of the news brovght by the Tennessee, preceded by a brief account of anterior events, which I’ decm necessary for the better comprebensicn of the subject, omitting commentaries or flection } rel — After the defeat of the reactionary ander the command of Len Miguel Miremon, near Silao, In the month of September last, the whole country between the two teu fens, and an the American frontier on the north, ity of the constitutional govern: m of the city of Guadalajara, the . with w strong and well ld by Generals Castillo and .! f that defeat, the eastern mand of Don Mignel Robles, eva- M Cordova, Jolapa and Origava, and con- where, the garridons of Tulan- ach, were ordered to since joi rmy, ponent.
