THE THREAT OF ATTACKING THE
CITY OF WASHINGTON.

The repetition by the Richmond Enquirer, Of
the threat that the city of Washington is to be
seized before the 4th of March, by Virginia and
Maryland, requires some notice.
This city has white population of about fifty
thousand, and is abundantly able to defend it.
self against any Virginia mob. And measures
will be taken to have the military strength of
the population embodied and made available.
Whatever may happen, and whatever States
may attempt to break down the Government,
this city will remain the capital of the United
States. Pride and policy both enforce this de-
termination.
The revenues will be collected, no matter how
many States endeavor to resist it.
There is to be no mpromise on this point
Those who hope that rebellion can be peacea.
able, if it is only wide enough, are mistaken.
Washington is able to protect itself against
mere mobs; but if larger mennces are intended,
they will be met by larger measures.
The Government and Union will be main.
tanned. The custom. house duties will every.
where be exacted. And this capital will be
defended, and held against all assalants

IxDEMSIrY FOR RESCUED SLAvEs.-The pro

lNDEMNlrY FoRREscUED SLAvEs.-The prop
osition to amend the Constitution, SO as to com.
pei the States to make indemnity for slaves res.
cued by popular violence, was very properly
voted down in the Senate committee of thirteen.
The action of the States in the premises must
be voluntary to be of any value, and they must
be the exclusive judges Of the measure of the
indemnity, and of the cases in which it should
be rendered. Any other course of proceeding
would be violation of the sovereignty of the
States, in so many particulars, as to be an in.
tolerable grievance.

MORE TREASON.

It is stated here that two hundred thousand
muskets have been taken from the arsenal at
Springfield during the past year, and sent
South. The New York Herald, in an apollo.
getic article, admits that, during the past sum.
mer, one hundred and twenty-five thousand
muskets have been so sent to FIVE cotton States.
The Washington correspondent OF the Her.
aid has the following.
"The Secretary of War recently ordered the
Superintendent Of the Springfield (Mass.) Ar.
mory to deliver to Major Thornton, Of the army
twenty thousand muskets, as condemned ord
nance stores, to be sold. Major Thornton
has charge Of the military stores in New York
city. 1t is said that the State of Virginia has
purchased them at two and half dollars each
They cost the Government twelve dollars EACH
and are known as the model Of lS42 and could
be changed to the latest and best model for
seventy five cents each, by the simple process
of rihing the barrel"
The New York Tribune Of yesterday says:
"Several days since, FIVE hundred boxes of
muskes we're brought down from the United
States Arsenal at Watervlet, opposite Troy,
and one.half of them, FIVE thousand muskets,
were put on board the Florida, for Savannah,
and the other FIVE thousand were shipped by
the Nashville for Charleston. We are inform.
ed that an additional five thousand have been
sent to Alabama from the same place, within
a week past.
"These muskets are stated to be the supply
allowed by the General Government to the
State MALTA of Georgia and South Carolina,
respectively, and that the Governors of those
States several months since requested that these
arms should be forwarded.
IF these were part of the supply voted to
South Carolina, what becomes OF the $4,000
stand of arms in the arsenal at Charleston,
from which we have heretofore been told the
quota of South Carolina and the surrounding
States was to be drawn? The more probable
supposition is, that this is only part of the
scheme concocted between our model President
snd his beautiful Secretary of War, to put as
many arms within reach of the secessionists as
possible
We were informed, three or four weeks ago,
that boxes of arms we're being put on board
vessels in the might time, from the arsenal in
this city. The captain of a river craft, whose
attention was attracted by the strangeness of
the procedure gave us the information.

THE OLD JACKSON MEN.

The venerable William Wilkins, of Pitts.
burgh, Pa, former Senator in Congress, mem.
Der of the Cabinet, Minister to Russia, has
written a letter. in which he takes decided
ground against secession. He is over eighty
five years of age, and still wields an immense
influence in Western Pennsylvania. Mr.. vii.
kins is an old Jackson man, and takes the
Jackson ground that secession must end in
coercion, and that disunion will produce civil
war.
So far as what is now called the Democratic
party is made up Of renegade Wings, spoils
men, and Swiss generally, there is little to be
hoped from it. But when we get down to the
substratum Of the old Jackson Democracy, we
shall find a spirit in sympathy with the feelings
which prompted Lewis Cass to leave a Cabinet
which abandoned the Charleston forts to null
fication. II is not among the traditions of the
old Jackson men 10 lore South Carolina i: and
it is now precisely in Pennsylvania, where
Democracy is more powerful than anywhere
at the North, that the greatest determination
exists to uphold the Government, and to crush
treason.
Amos Kendall, in communication in yes
terdays Star, says:
"The course which any President of the
United States who regards his oath must pur.
sue in two important particulars is pointed out
by Mr.. Buchanan in his last annual message.
He must collect the Federal revenues
g He must defend the forts and other property
of the United States.
These dutips ha ,nust parfnru ann orJ;
ndnces Of secession to the contrary notpih-
Stdnding. But it is not necessary for him to
be the aggressor in any acts of violence.
''lf State chooses to withdraw her repre-.
sentation in Congress, let them 60.
IF the Federal judicial officers within
State resi- gn, and none can be found to fill their
places, it cannot be helped.
/" If the postmasters within a State resign,
and none can be found to supply their places,
or if they refuse to pay over their quarterly
revenues let the post offices be discontinued.
" But let not a ship enter her ports, pithout
paying the larfm drties to The United States,
nor leare hem rithom clearance from the
Federal authorities.
g. Let the white population Of South Carolina,
about equal to one third of that of the city of
New York, enjoy for while the luxury Of a
direct tax to support an independent Govern.
ment, with all its paraphernalia of an army and
navy. 1t may be that a short experience would
satisfy her people that the Union is not such
an accursed thing as has been represented,
and they may deem it best for themselves to
resume their relations with the Federal Govern
ment. But should she become restive under
this state of things, and attempt by violence to
coerce the United States into surrender of
their forts or their ships, the issue must be net,
and God protect the right
The Federal Union must be preSerred!"

NORTH CAROLINA CANNOT GO,

From the North Carolina Standard, Dec o.
OnThursday last, Messrs. Garrett and Smith
Commissioners from the State of Alabama
with the Hon. Jacob Thompson, Commissioner
from Mississippi, appeared before the Legisa
ture of this State, and were received in the
Commons Hall, Mr. Speaker Clark of the
Senate presiding. The Governor of the State
and the Judge of the Supreme Court were in
attendance, with the members of both Houses,
and a large audience.
Mr.. Ransom, on behalf of the committee. in.
troduced these gentlemen, whereupon Mr.. Gar
rett rose and read an address setting forth the
object Of their mission. The address was list.
ened to with much attention and interest.
Mr.. Thompson did not address the Legisla
ture. On Thursday night the Alabama Com
missioners addressed large audience in the
Commons Hall.
is to induce North Carolina to secede from the
Union. Alabama, they say, will certainly
secede soon after her Convention assemblies.
We entertain great respect for Alabama, but
for one we cannot go tciM her in this secession
increment. She is largely responsible for the
present condition Of things-for her represent
atve man, Mr.. Yancey, disrupted the National
Democratic party at Charleston, and thus paved
the way for its defeat and the election OF Lin
coin. Mr.. Yancey and his Alabama and Mis-
sissippi followers did that thing ,oith that view
and now they coolly ask us to continue this
work Of disruption by dissoVing the Union.
But for them, ice rerily 6eliere Mr.. Lincol,,
'coutd haze been defeated, and the erl no,o on
the country ,0ould hare been postponed or
duerted.
Mr.. Thompson, it seems, looks to Southern
co operation, and not 10 separate State action 4;
but Mr.. Thompson is the representative of a
disunion State.
All three of these gentlemen are natives Of
