DIssoLuTloN or THE UNIoN.-Under date of
Washington City, December lst, the New
York Herald's correspondent has the follow
ing:
We are approaching crisis in our polit-
cal affairs which may, possibly, bring this
Union to a speedy dissolution. While all the
beer politicians and spoismen at Washington
are debating, plotting and counter plotting
for the offices and spoils of the House organi
zaton, you may depend upon it that the
leading men of the South are brooding upon
"a far more important matter. The para
mount question with them is, are we and our
institutions any longer secure in this Union,
and if not secure, what steps shall we take
for our securityg Acting upon this order |
understand that the following programme
h. been substantially agreed upon by u
number of leading Southern men in Con-
gress and out of Congress;
lst. In view of the Harpers Ferry aboli-
ton invasion, and its extensive and alarm
ing ramifcations. and in view of the sylnpa-
thes of AT clifton Republican party for Old
Brown, and the threats Of the party to re-
duce the South to submission, a special law
shall be demanded of Congress for the future
pfOlectlOn anu SecuIlbJ VI IHo pOutHCl
States against abolition conspirators, ennis
saries and incendiaries.
ID That in default of some such Congress
sonal protection, the Southern members OF
both Houses shall withdraw from Washing
ton and meet in body in Richmond Va, or
some other convenient place, in view of the
initial steps for an Independent Southern
Confederacy.
In anticipation of this alternative, am
further advised that this southern congress
sional meeting in Richmond or elsewhere
will place the South in a proper position be-
fore the great western powers of Europe, in-
Guiding programme of commercial tire itie'
on purely Southern basis that can hardly
fail to attract the sympathies of even Eng
land for southern cotton including southern
slavery.
There is a movement on foot among men o
wealth aud political influence quite capable
OF carrying out their programme, 10 furnisl
the Liberal Government of Mexico the mean
and men to overcome the opposition in tina
country 1t is proposed in legal shape, an,
it is believed that the Administration vii
not discourage, but may possibly favor it.

LAST HoURs OF WAsnINGT0N IRvING.-lhe
New York Tribune says that MIR. Irving,
aside from the asthmalic complaints, with
which he had been for some time ailing, had
also suffered for several months, with frequent
attacks of severe pain in the region of the
heart. Upon the evening of his decease MIR
Irving had passed the hours in lively CONVEX
sation with his three nieces and his ncphews,
Mr.. Pierre Irving and Mr.. Ebenezer Irving,
upon which occasion he manifested quite a
cheerful disposition, and engaged with his
usual pleasing manner in the subjects of con-
versation. At about half past 10 o'clock he
left the drawng.room with a view of retiring
for the night. He manifested no signs OF
unusual indispostion, though as upon fire.
Quent occasions before, expressed fear OF
unsound sleep and broken rest. Upon ap
rroachins his bedside he was observed to
manifest sudden and severe attack of pain in
his left side, pressing his hand suddenly to
the spot, and at the same time he was OBJ
served to fall partially to the floor. The
household were soon around him, but only to
behold his lifeless form, though not until a
physician had been called and restoratlves
al piled was it ascertained to certainty that
life was extinct.
