The national Republican., 1860-12-11

A writer in the Columbus (Ga.) Times pro-
poses that the new Southern Confederacy should
not repeat again the useless and disastrous ex.
pertinent of republican Government but as
soon as the States are out Of the Union, should
at once proceed to organize itself as constitu
tional monarchy.
This is first rate idea, and we take the lib.
erty of suggesting Robert Toombs as the most
proper person for King. 1t is true that Mr..
Rhett, in South Carolina, and Mr.. jeff Davis,
in Mississippi, may think they have claims to
the purple equal to those of the great Revolu.
ZIONIST Of Georgia, but the matter might be com.
promised by making them princes Of the blood
royal. Or on the South Carolina principle,
that the minority ought to govern, the case
might be submitted to the people, and the can
didate having the fewest votes could be pro.
claimed. Still, on that principle, Toombs might
carry the day. We 60 for him. Huzza for Robert
II Long may he wave IN T. Tribune.

A SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY.

One of the candidates for the South Carolina
Convention, Claudian B. Northrop, said in his
card to the electors:
"In my Judgment, the first object of the Con-
vention should be to ordain the independence
of the people of South Carolina, by immediate
dissolution of the Federal Union.
Whatever alliances our Republic may here
after form, we should never enter into any
union with other States, by which general
government shall be established, whose laws
can control our people against their sovereign
will. / hope for CoNFEDERAcY Of independ-
ent sovereign slaveholding States. None other,
and no more Unions"
These paragraphs open up part of the
questions which will arise, if the Utopian
scheme of Southern Confederacy is attempted
to be realized. 1t is easy enough to propose
such Confederacy in general terms, but the
difficulties will be found to be immense, when
it comes to the practical point of settling how
it shall be constituted, and with what powers it
shall be invested.
There will be at the threshold, the settlement
of the relative weight of the States which shall
compose it. Will the great State of Georgia
assent to Senate, in which she shall count no
more than Florida, or will South Carolina as
sent to House, in which she will be dwarfed
by the standard Of numbers2
Equally troublesome will be the adjustment OF
the powers of the proposed Confederacy, and to
be ended probably, in no other way than by de-
nying it any substantial powers whatever. The
States in favor of opening the African slave
trade, will never consent to put it in the power
of slaveholding States to control them. So, too'
the States in favor of direct taxation and Eu-
ropean trade, will never yield the power of reg
ulating commerce to States in favor of build.
ing up manufactures. These nullifying gentle.
men may agree in leaving the North, but they
cannot escape everlasting quarrels among them
selves.

Items Telegraphed from Washington.

1t is stated by some persons here that Gener.
al Scott advised the President, some time since,
to strengthen the force at Fort Moultrie; but
instead Of complying with this advice, the Pres
ident caused the troops stationed there to be
ordered to California, when there were plenty
of other troops who could have been detailed
to that duty. Northern people here, as well as
Southern, are writing letters denunciatory Of
the administration for what they allege to be
its dilatoriness in the present state Of affairs.
Washington, Dec. l0.-The President has
Just been assured, from an authentic source,
that the authorities of South Carolina will make
no resistance either to the collection of duties
or to the Federal possession of the forts guard.
ing Charleston harbor, during the remainder Of
his administration.
The conservative sentiments uttered to-day
by Senator Dixon, of Connecticut, together
with Mr. Hale's correction of the erroneous i'm.
pressions occasioned by reports concerning his
late speech, would argue well for ultimate &C.
commodation between the States, were it not
for the idea thrown out by Mr.. King, Of New
York, that coercion was the policy Of the Re.
publican party. There is too much reason to
fear that persistence to the bitter end in an ex.
treme partisan policy is the card of the leading
Republicans in Congress.
1t is probable that there will be long dis.
cussion in the House, precedent to final action,
as to excusing members from serving on the
. committee of one from each State. l hear from
well.posted quarter that only Messrs. Haw.
kns and Boyce will decline to serve thereon.
The motion for raising committee Of thirteen
in the Senate will doubtless pass.
Judge Morsell, of the Circuit Court, here
has Just decided, that when an inventor, after
the rejection of his claims for patent, with
draws the same, and suffers q considerable
number of years to elapse before renewing his
application, he will be adjudged to have for
feted any rights that he might otherwise have
had.
The immense edition of the agricultural re
port of the Patent Office, ordered by Congress
at the last session, has been completed by the
Senate printer, and will be shortly in the hands

A VrRGIH1AN THROWN OvERBoARp.-Mr.
Millson the Representative of the Norfolk
district, being grievously suspected of want
of sympathy with South Carolina notification,
is thrown overheard by the Washington Con-
stitution, in the following summary style;
"Mr. Corwin's title to be considered the ex.
ponent of Northern or Western conservatism
Is as valid as that of Mr.. Millson to the cham.
pionshp of Virginia, or Mr.. Henry Winter
Davis to that of Mary yland. We concede that

to receive the confidence of the South, or to
influence materially its conduct in the present

1t is now certain that Mr.. Secretary Cobb
will at once leave his Office and go home, to
devote his talents to the dsunon revolution in
Georgia. If he succeeds as well in that bust
ness as he has in conducting the affairs of the
United States Treasury, the new Southern Con-
federacy will be hopelessly broken down in
about sixty days from the present date.
