tncky rs the shcerest nonsense in the
world. They accomplish nothing,
while the very government is hourly
crumbling away, and the Union is in
rapid progress OF disintegration." In
the opinion of the Statesman, "tho
only hope of the Union rests in the
speedy conVocation OF authorized del.
pgates from the fifteen holding
States in joint conference" and
"withont it's agency, the fate Of the
Onion is as inevitably sealed in disso.
luton, as that the 4th Of March rolls
round"
The Statesman, therefore, recon.
mends that no more Union meetings
bv held, "but instead, let the masses
assemble, in all the counties, and in
struct the Governor to commission,
with at least semi,official and unani'
mously accorded authority, reliable
and trustworthy delegates to a South
ern Convention" 1t suggests thai
twelve delegates, selected equally from
the three parties in tho State, be SC
appointed. Then let the fifteen
slave States meet in common Conven,
ton, and with due deliberstion and
becoming dignity, announce their
complaints and demand the redress
they believe due them. They may
demand what guarantees they think
necessary. In a word, lot them Sub

Exclusive Dispatch to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
From Washington.
w AsHISGToN. December 1
To tho Editor of the Enquirer:

To tho Editor of the Enquirer:
A large number Of members have
arrived to day, and considerable ex-
cltement is seen on the streets. AL.
though tho news from the South does
not seem to allay the feeling, yet the
members talk hopefully, and a conf
dence that something will be done by
Congress to ward off the impending
dangers and finally disrel them is
daily gaining strength.
Mr.. BreckiTridge arriv ed yesterday,
and his rooms have since been crowd.
ed with visitors, anxious to hear his
views upon the present crisis. Re
talks hopefully, and ccursels mOdera-
ton, torbearance and compromise.
The opinion appears to be pretty
generally received that early in the
session, before the assembling oil
the South Carolina Convention, the
leading Republicans in Congress will
bring forward some measure calcula-
ted to assure the South, which, if it
will not prevent the secession Of South
Carolina, will at least prevent any
other State from following her. In.
deed, hear it asserted that a COM
promise measure 10 actually in the
course Of preparation which will Gov
er the entire sectional issue, and
leave no State the shadow OF an ex.
cuse for wishing to leave the Union.
The rumor in reference 10 Secreta
Try Cobb: | heard to-day that Mr.
Cobb will not resign his position in
the Cabinet until after the assembling
of Congress. Ga the delivery Of the
Presidents Message, it is expected
that Messrs. Cobb, Floyd and Thomp
son will then issue manifesto dis.
claiming the sentiments OF that docu
meut; and this will lead to rupture
with the President and other mem berl
OF the Cabinet.
The general impression seems to 5e
that the next session will not be char
acterized, as some former sessions
have been. by scenes of tumuItuOus
uproar and disgracefu personal con
tlct on the part Of members from tn,
two great sections oi the Union. |
there were any doubt upon the mind
in this regard, it would be removed BY
noticing the quick, deliberate, im
pressive way in which members tron
the several States discuss the existiu;
condition Of the country.
Many OF the Southern member
here brought their families with them
indicating they expect to stay all win
ter. This looks well for the Union
There is an effort being put fort
tonight by members from the borde
States to procure caucus oil S9utherI
members, at which the subject Of Sc
cession, in all its bearings, will b
discussed, and some will define tn
line of policy to be marked on tn
J board. A determination to brln,
matters to settlement at an early do,
is quite evident.

Court House, Va:
RoLLIsroN (uear Norfolk } Nov. 10.
GENTLEMEN: Yours Of the 9th Was
late coming to hand, and now can
but regret that it was not in my pow
er, had it been received earlier, to
have accepted your call. Domestic
duties oblige me TO be at home for a
week or two from the Goth, tomorrow.
The "impending crisis" is full oi
danger on every side. There is no
election now but to meet it on every
side--in full 'front.' Instruct your
Delegates and Senators to call the
sovereign power Of the State "tO judge
of the infraction and of the mode ant
measure Of redress" The Constitu
| ton of the United States and all tha
liz establishes must be defended, anC
our rights and honor must be saved
The dangers are such as call US tC
stand on our arms, if not at once t
use them. We are in fact in a state
Of war without its being proclaimed
Our duties to ourselves is to bail the
sovereign parties to the Federal com
pact, and to demand OF each its pur
pose and intent-peace or war. |
issues can not be peaceably adjusted
then reference must be had to the las
resort Of sovereign powers. To as
sumo that attitude OF defense, We mus
resolve ourselves into the con vention
al form of sovereignty, and fall bach
upon our reserved rights. The mos
essential Of these rights is to resume
delegated powers which are about t
be perverted and abused to our ruiz
and disgrace.
Till the question of peace or war i
defined, let Virginia and every South
ern or slave State suspend Federal re
lation with Black Republican State
ii peace, return to Statn quo; ifwal
fight
In the nean time, organize Octivcl
Committees Of Safety, and arm an
equip corps Of Minute Men. Don
delay a moment. Arm and drill

Mr.. Unffmaker, Postmaster at Ma.

dcr Montgomery, on Thursday last,
and ordered to leave on pain of death,
arrived in the city last evening by the
Kansas City stage. From him we
gained the particulars of his arrest
and trial, which do not very much
vary from those given by us yesterday.
On Sunday morning last, about
eight o'clock, a portion Of Montgom.
ery's men, headed by DR.. Jennison,
his lieutenant. who seems to be ambi-
tiOus of-becoming notorious as his su-
perior officer, arrested a man by the
name of Samuel Scott, reSiding in the
northern part Of Linn County, about
three miles from Turin Springs, and
hung him mp to a tree until he was
dead. Mr.. Scott is said to have been
a clever, estimablo citizen and q man
of wealth, owning some three hundred
acres of fire land.
Having finished this job, the party
stated that they had q similar account
to settle with man named Day liv'
ing in the same neighborhood. -
Mr.. Hufinaker, before leaving homo
on Monday heard that they hung him
also, and on arriving at Ossawatomie
the report was fully confirmed.
Up to four7o'clock on Sunday night
no attack had been made upon For
Scott although one was hourly expect
ed. Numbers OF prominent citizen'
were leaving, taking their effects will
them. Judge Williams, who was t
open Court on Monday, had disap
peared. Without a comment Of on
own, at this time, we close our repor
5p giving some comments of othe
parties. The Mound CITY Report

satellites, in its issue Of Friday last
after giving an account of the hang

Silence it has become settled

is engaged in nan-hunting FOR
FElTS HIS LIFE"
DR.. JenniSon, in an article in thC
same paper, says:
"We claim that, by the law Of ma
ture and natures God, we are bounC
to protect the fugitive"
Again, the same paper says
"They 1.-THE people) were driven tt
this alternative, and they have chosel
to declare that man-hunting, under N
pretense whatever, can be tolerated

1t is now conceded by all parties
that the American Union is in most
imminent peril. The long continued
notification of the laws Of the United
States by northern States in which the
so.called Republican party is domi
rant, and the late election of a Presi.
dent pledged to the principles of that
party, by which the South is given to
understand that the unconstitutional
war on her rights is to be continued,
have brought us to the verge Of ruin
Much as democrats lament this, thoy
can truly say that they have done all
they could to prevent it. lfdsunion
civil war and bloodshed shall now fol
low--wEich Heaven for0fend us from,
the stair of such disasters will mol
be found on the skirts Of the democra'
cy. They have been willing, and are
still willing to give our Southern
neighbors their Constitutional rights
For this they have been called "slave
ocrats," "Union savers" &c. W.
