| The alleged excitement here concerning dis
l.nion is much exaggerated, and manufactured
| in dispatches to sensation papers out Of very
| small material As this capital has no COM
| Inercc, and Is mainly dependent on Govern
lnent, every disturbing cause is sensibly felt
| by property holders whose whole means are
invested here No attempt ut secession Is ex-
l'ccted in any 6tate but South CaTolina, though
I prudence ts necessary to prevent sympathy
And cooperation from others.
| The nullitiers are rushing their movement
| in order to forestRll the reaction which they
| know to be certain after the experience u
1851, and to prevent the moral influence which
will be exerted from the South against this
raah policy They have got the cry and will
| dcnonncc as abolitionists all who favor delay
4 OF concerted action. Still, much may be done
in the next month, especially when the practI-
| cal effects OF these proceedings begin to be
felt by people already oyertaxed
The Banks Of South Carolina must suspend
soon under the demands already made upon
them for specie by the return Of their notes

fused III Baltimore for railroad fire, and the
discount upon them ii daily increasing. A

South under the defensive restrictions of the

The President admits the right Of South
Carolina 10 secede peaccably, aud will not re-
sist it, if the Convention there should SO de-
tc.1niuc next month. Resistance, it is sup
posed, would produce more calamitous re-
/ suits. But, If she should attempt to open her
ports, they would probably be blockaded In
sindication Of our revenue laws And If she
should try to set up IN independent Govern
nlent and send Minfsterlerc, he could not be
received. It is likely other nations would be
notified that any such recognition on their
part would be considered a catus teli. These
are stated as probabilities, but with some rca-
son
Mr. Toombs's resignation from the Senate
was rendered necessary by his pledges during
the canvass In holding on till the 4th Of
March, however, he takes his chances for
reelection, which everybody believes he de-
sires. Georgia has no confidence in his conn-
recover from his recent aftlltation with Dir.
Douglas Last winter he declared here that
he wanted no better epitaph than-"1lcre lies

signed, to. take effect on the 4th of Mnrch,
with II view Of makiu:, {. newspaper flourish,
were only Temporarily employed, and appropri-
atlons for their service will be exhausted be-
forc that time. All tie South Carolina and
Georgia incumbcuts arc still supportin. the
Constitution with good salaries.

It is the settled Intention Of the Administra-
tion to allow South Carolina to take any posi-
tiun she please8-6u6pend the Courts aud stop
all the mails, provided she docs not attempt to
interfere with the public revenue, or open
port. Should this be done, revenue officer
IN board man-ofwar viii Immediately attend
u them, This lave from reliable authority.
Mr.. Buchanan hopes that there will be no ef.
fort made to interrupt the collection Of the
revenue before the experiment Of secession
shall have proven bad speculation, aud hare
been abandoned.
There seems to be NO fear here Of resiena-
tions enough to give the Senate to the Repub-
Hc:ns.
ltis singular fact that States in position
secure ayaiust injury from the nol-e1ecution
Of the Fugitive slave law urc the only statgs
making this alleged non-exccution Of the Law
prctcxt for secession. Whata comment this
upon the border States, which would thus
seem to be regarded as incapable OF taking care
Of their own interests. Q.

It is said that letters from Virginia intimate
that numbers Of the wealthy planters have
avowed their determination, II the attempt to
break up the Union shall succeed, to locate in
the Free States.
Chief Justice Taney cordially re-echocs the
sentiment Of Amos Kendall, In dcnouncing
every attempt to break up the Union as trea-
sonable in the last degree
Tie National lhte{t|gencer is doing ycoman
service in behalf Of the Union. 1t publishes
this morning a long communication from q
wealthy Southern cotton planter, the owner
Of 800 slayes, deprecatfng any attempt to dis
solve the Union merely because Mr. Lincoln
has been elected President.
In South Carolina the excitement does not
as,ate. The Columbia Guardian, referring to
the action Of the Senate calling Convention,
says: ''This, rs We have said before, is the
tiret step, and VIC do not doubt but that the
House will promptly concur. The next Is to
make ample provision for arming the State
Northern States TINT Soutl, Carolina is IN ear
nest, but will give assurance to our sister
Southern States that the time has come for
action. The work Of de1iycrance has COM

take no step backwards. ALPHA.

There arc rumors to-day that prominent Of
fccrs in the Baltimore Custom House and
Post -0fdce have rendered their designations,
to take effect after Lincoln dppoints hefr succes-
surs, but they are wanting confirmation. Pub
lie feeling is still feyerisG, owing chiefly to tho
financial pressure and the decline In stocks. |
The Bank officers arc much exercised rs to |
how they will meet the cxigcncy, and relieve |
the merchants, who press hard Tor loans. Busl- |
ness Of all kinds is interrupted, but the Union |
