Another, that he had been slighted by the authorities in Baltimore, and the Republicans were de- termined to make a demonstration that wouldba unwise, tend to provoke resant- mont, and make bad feeling. The president elect took supper with his family, Immediately after the la- digs had retired hoe was waited upon in the same room by two efficers of- the United Stites Army, who had come from Washington direct. The conver- mation was earnest and prolonged, and carried on in whispors inaudible even to the faw persons who were privileged to remain in the apartment., The officers used every argument to induce Mr. Lin coln to consent to leave Harrisburgh at once, and in seoret, for Washington via Baltimore. . Finally Governor Curtain was admit- ted to the «Conference, 'and very reluc- given to the proposed «arrangement. Soon after, while the barroom and par- lors of the hotal were crowded with par- ties desirous of seeing the guest, he qui- etly passed through the dwelling of Mr., Caverly, adjoining the hotal, and went to the house of Gorernor Curtain. From theneo, by an arrangement made with the officers of the Pennsylvania Railroad, he proceadad to the same car in which he had reached Harrisburgh, in com- any with the Superintendent of the g’ofinsylvaniu Railroad. Reaching West Philadelphin, they took a carriage and drove rapidly to the depot where two tickets ware bought for Washington and berths taken in the aleoping car. ' Passing quietly to the car, the Presi- dent was soon safely ensconced in a berth unkrown to any one on the train, save Fhe writer, after | his companion, Col.

The Republican argues that, because the property of the General Government in some of the States\ has been seized by the secessionists, ike Afaie of New. York must arm.to reclaim it, - We had always supposed that the duties of the State of New York extended only to looking af ter the Affairs ofthe State of New York, and that the care of the common inter- ests of all the States devolved upon the United Statesgovernment. If the Gene- ral Government has any lack of means- the men or munitions of war-it has only to understand and make known its wants and deficiencies, and at once by loan or by revenue to supply them. Most cer- tainly, the State of New York is interes- ted in General Governuzeut property, but so too she is interested in having the citizens of the United States protec- ted from:-the depredations of the Mor- mons, the Mexicans and the Indian tribes; and her might with as much propriety, and with much great- er prospect of being of some service, raise $500,000 to fit out an expedition against the \latter-day-saints or the Camanche Indians. When the General Government shall call upon her for as- sistance, it will be time enough for New York to offer it, - The result, and, thus far, the only re- sult, of this ill-advised legislation of a republican legislature has been to exas- perate Southern States, and still further When the resolutions, tendering the aid of New York to the President, were sent to the Governor of Virginia, they were returned 'by the Legislature of that State with the request \that no such resolution be again sent to this General Assembly, . Gov.

Nothing that has occurred in the progress of this controversy has been worse timed and less excusable. the Governor and Legisin- ture of New York desire to preserve the Un- fon, a tender of men and money, under the pmmpflnfi‘s of passion, prejudice and excite- ment, will not produce the result.

In 1798 and 1799 the action of. Virginia was marked by calmness, alignity, and on earnest desire to preserve the Union, without preju- diceto the rights of theStates, No feelin of resentment toward the other States was manifested by. those great men in that day of peritand trial. No effort was made to pro- duce estrangement between the different see- tions of the country, orto inflame popular pre- jugdices. Their example is worthy of imita- tion when events are hurrying us on so rap- idly into civil strife.\ * % # % This very State, (the commoriwealth ofVirginia) so indignant at the head- long course of our ill-timed legislation, is now commended for her.course in set- tling our troubles, (even by Republican journals: In speaking :of the result of the ference, the \ World\ of Feb. 28th, says : \The anclent commonwealth of Virginia de: serves a git-eat share of the praise of having put this dangerous controversy in so falr a way of amicable adjustment, At atime when the secession fe was spreading like wild- fixential state interposed its good officts by and from that day tothis there has been'a con- stant abatement in the progress of disloyalty,\ Waller's statesmanship and Waller's bravery partake very largely of the G1ee- ley and Van Wyck school. When Reu- ben Davis is away in Mississiypi, it: is very loud-mouthed and bloody in its abuse of him,. - It is very fierce in beard- ing the lion's den when the lion himself is out of it. It is quick to select the time out of a bundred years, when the President elect may be assassinated with radiant glory ; but it is shy in exposing itself even to the tender mercies of , a rabble by lecturing in St. Louis.

Twiggs, of the regular- army of the Uni- ted States, has thrown up his command, with 3 view of'tenderiug his services to the Southern Confederacy. ~ It is also re- ported the rumor 'needs confirma- tion) that lé had surrendered 'the mate viet of the army under his command to the authorities of the: State of Texas, Such are the results of the, breaking up of our confederation. The naval and military‘officers, who are natives of the Southern States, and many who are not, will never consent to beat arms against their own countrymen; > Gen, Twiggs is one of our inost hero- ic officers. During the Mexican war he was actively engaged in almost every battle, from the sanguinary conflict of Palo Alto to the victories at the city of Mexico. Perhaps there is.not another general officer of whom it may be said, that he was in-every battle of any conside- rable importance, except the baitle of Buena Vista, at which time he was do- ing duty with another portion of 'the ar- my under General Seott. .
