Progress OF Treason.
Special Correspondence Of the n. Y. Tribune.
WAsnINGroN, Oct. 2Sth.--An intelligent
Georgiaa, just arrived from the South, told
me tonight, that the arning and forming
Of Minute Men found faver only among
the poorer classes, the petit blancs who
had nothing to lose, while the larger slave
owners and capitalists, knowing too well
thai, in the event of dissolution, they would
become prey of Great Britain, were ut
terly opposed to rebellion He firmly be-
lieved that British gold and influence were
now employed North and South to break
up the Government. The visit of the
Prince Of Wales, at the present excited
stair of affairs, was connected scheme Of
the British Ministry, calculated to operate
by the splendor Of Royalty upon our high
er classes.
POLITICAL STOCK JoBBiNGs SCHEME.
Special Dispatch to the n. Y. Tribune.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 29th, 1860.-The
political stock jobbing Of Mr.. Cobb and
his confederate conspirators in New York,
has excited deep indignation and resent
ment here and throughout the State.
Pennsylvania will give Mr.. lincoln at least
$4,000 majority, and perhaps 10000 or
10000 She is determined to meet the
issue squarely, and defy the traitors and
nullifiers, who are now conspiring to break
up and plumber the Government. Phila-
delphia, which gave Mr.. Foster nearly
1000, will give Mr.. Lincoln {, 900 majority,
or more. The Bell men, who were not
bought by the Administration to run the
machine, have joined our standard bravely,
and are now in full comm ission. They
confess having been the dupes Of knaves
and tricksters.

THE COURSE OF Elk GOVERNOR WISE.
Jealousies are rising between ex-Gov.
Wise and Gov. Letcher, of Virginia, in
consequence Of the course the former is
pursuing with reference to the organization
Of Committees of Safety. Gov. Letcher
deems tho regularly constituted authorities
Of the State capable of asserting and main
tanning all her rights, whether in the Union
or out Of it and quotes the recent fulnlina-
tons of Mr.. Wise during the John Brown
raid back upon him. The Governor in
tends to enforce the laws and support the
Constitution in accordance with his oath,
whether the penalty fall upon disturbers Of
order outside the State or within its limits.
PANIC OPERATIONS.
Panic makers are attempting to depre-
ciate the prices Of property in the Di>r.ct
on account of the present political cMite-
ment, but their efforts are Of no avail.
There is more building going on now than
over before, and the structures are of an
improved character. Property holders
declare that the election Of Mr.. Lincoln will
be followed by an influx Of Northern capi-
tai and energy here, which must result to
the benefit of oil classes.

PRESIDENCY FOR Mr.. ERECKIN RIDGE.
1t must have been surprising to many
that Mr.. Breckenridge, though he has not
the slightest hope of being elected, either
by the people or by Congress, should have
sacrificed himself and his future for mere
nomination. But it appears now that he
has been promised by the disunionists that
he shall be President, ifnot of the United
States, at least of Southern Republic. II
is on account of that promise that he has
not answered the Norfolk questions. Mr.
Buchanan sanctions the scheme, and he
| will make over to the disunionists the ar
| chives, treasury, army and navy, as soor
| as the dissolution takes place. 1t is sup
posed by them that Mr.. Breckenridge will
carry the fifteen Southern States.
THE FATE OF DisUEIoNrsrs SOUTH.
Southern gentlemen admit, that if only
Northern people will quietly await tht
action of the Disunionists and not stir the
flames by interference, there will be ar
uprising Of the conservative masses in tn
South, that will sweep the Disunionist.
out Of existence.
Secretary Cobb goes about openly avow
ing reasonable purposes, threatening Dis.
union and Revolution. Would it not be
more decent for him first to resign hi
Office and relieve himself of the oath which
specially binds him to support the Fedora
Constitution? But as he does not resign
is it not the plain duty of MIR. Buchanan
to dismiss him at once? Can it be posi-
BILE that the latter is willing to be implica
ted in the treason of his subordinate?
