WASHINGTON, Nov. 9th.-The President is
engaged at the State Department daily fer
several hours, and has been for the fortnight
past consulting authorities in preparation for
his animal message Its main features, after
a review Of the foreign policy during the last
three years, will be in reference to the pres
ent attempts at disunon. So far from favor
ing these schemes, or being pledged TO seces-
sion, as alleged by keitt and others, his
whole argument will he directed to over
throw any such assumption, and to establish,
10y historical facts, that the contingency WAS
not only never contemplated, but was eX-
pressy forbidden by the concurrent declare
tions Of the trainers Of the Constitution, and
the Interpretation of the most eminent ex-
FOUNDERS. Buchanan has always held this
theory, and perhaps, will take peculiar pleas
ure IN announcing it now under a sense of
public duty, and for the purpose of striking
an effective blow at the cOnspirators who
have never exhibited the least recognition OF
his services to the South, or any sense OF
common gratitude for the sacrifices made by
the Administration during the Kansas con-
troversy.
Both the Charleston and Baltimore Con.
ventions ignored his Administration entirely
and the Sonth generally gave it the cold
shoulder In their State Conventions, after
having received peculiar marks in their fa-

thus drawing off attention from the proceed

GOVERNOR LETcuER will urge upon the
Virginia Legislature, which he has summon
ed for the 7th Of January, the policy of sub
mitting propositions for an amendment of
the Constitution containing the basis of a
new compromise between the North and
South, and alternately Convention of
Southern States, to determine their course
of action in the present exigency. AS the
first is almost impracticable the latter will
be most considered. That plan furnishes the
only mode 10y which South Carolina can be
eXtricated from her predicament, for no
doubt is entertained that her rash scheme
woull be voted down in conference, by
which she would be bound to abide after
eonsenting to enter it. And she could hard
ly refuse to attend if Virginia proposed a
general Convention. Some plan will be yet
devised to escape the last resort now threat
ened.

CONSERVATIVE FEELING.-We take the fol-
lowing from the Atlas st. Louis correspond
ence dated November oath:
Notwithstanding the apparent panic, the
progress of the secession scheme is marked
10y many evidences of more conservative
feeling, and, despite few hot-headed out
breaks, in two or three instances, the secess-
ion tone has considerably cooled down. 1t
would not be surprising if Senators Chesnut
and Hammond were reelected by the South
carolina Legislature, and instructed to re-
sumo their seats in the United States Senate.
ana Tor this reason: without those Senators
there Is apt to be strength enough opposed
TO dlsunion in the Senate to make the disun-
lonists trouble and it is advisable for South
Carolina to have her two Senators present to
stay the mischief. 1t is noted that there is
no money in that State, nor Georgia, nor
Alabama, with which to prosecute the prac-
,lcal withdrawal of the States named from
the Union. The mere absence of their Mem
bers and Senators from Congress can only
serve TO weaken the whole South, and will
te strenuously protested against by Louis
lana. Kentucky, Tennessee North Carolina,
Virginia, Maryland, Della ware and Missouri
The Governors of Kentucky and Tennessee
have both come out in opposition to seces-
sion. Com Greenwood, formerly NJ c. from
ArkaLsas, just returned to Washington from
that State, says it is admitted that three
fourths of the people Of Arkansas are opposed
to secession. Sam Houston is down on the
whole movement, and refuses to commit Tex
as to it, though Senator Wigfall is one of the
most bitter advocates of secession to be found
in the South. Missouri is too ovcrv helming.
Iy opposed to disunion to admit of ques-
tion. Senators Green and Polk have spoken
against it, and not a single newspaper among
the hundreds which supported Bell, Douglas
and Breckenridge, has dared to propose it.
Maryland, through her Governor rad Sena-
tor Kennedy, EX-Gov. Pratt, Senator Pearce,
Mayor Brown of Baltimore, and her public
press, have unanimously protested against it,
and Delaware is about half nothern already.
A United South is, therefore, impractcable,
and South Carolina d Co. will find it out in
time to hesitate when the time to commit an
overt act" against the Federal Government
arrives.

A dispatch flom Washington dated Nov.
10Th, says
Great rejoicing is expressed in this city at
the disunon manifesto of Senator Slidell and
earnest hopes aroused that he may he beaten
for reelection TO the Senate but the Sena-
tors friends are quite confident that he has
capacity and means enough to secure his re-
turn.
The Union men of New Orleans laugh to
scorn the idea that the State admitted into
the Union under the auspices of Thomas
jefferson, and sealed to the national compact
10y the blood of the heroes who fought under
jackson in 1915, will ever leave the confed-
eracy
The friends of Douglas and Bell all over
the South are uniting in solid column. Some
will of course go with the secessioniss in the
cotton States, but for every leader thus lost
they will gain ten flom the Breckenridge
party.
Col. VIM. B. Polk, of Tennessee will be
presented by the Bell and Douglas interests
for Governor of that State, and the Constitu-
tional candidate for President, in the late
election will, if he chooses, he elected, under
the same influence, to the Senate in place of
Andrew Johnson who, in the Presidential
contest, went against his old friend and chief
supporter in the Homestead Bill and for the
disunion candidate.
