Last evening the MiDute-Nen of the city gave
him a serenade at the Mills House. The object
was 70 get speech from him-and they sue
coded. The Governor declared that his reh-
apce was on the military. but said that he was
in possesson of information that induced nun 70
believe that there would be no appeal TO force
nm the mart OF the Federal authority. At the
same time, should force be resorted to, no pro-
fessed himself prepared 81 meet any and every
issue. He hoped that there would be no appeal
70 rush counsels, bat that the people OF the
State would prove that they are not only Tres,
but that their virtues and character entitled
them 10 be ~. With regard to the Forts,
Gov. Pickens said TINT South Carolina would not
prcsept the issue until the Commissioners sent TO
public places in the possession of Che naval au-
thority. In the meantime, should there be any
attempt to reinforce the forts, lit should not DC
a ne without an appeal t. arms" So far ar
am concerned, said be, desire TO 60 through
the present controversy without al appeal to
anne or the s.ue of blood, but if it be neces 'ary

sibihiy, and, il need be, do it again. The

New olkers and Pennsylvanians faltered; that
regiment marched alene 10 victory, ond they can
stand and march alone again.
The speech was belligerent throughout, aud
was received with tumultuous applause by half
the fighting population a Charleston. would
not have been difficult for "bOld, bad man
TO have wrought up the popOlace to On attack
on Fort Moutrie within the same hour The
only thing that saves the Fort from On attack,
uuder such circumstance, is the military despct-
ism that prevails.
The Convention gets on slowly in providing for
the cxieencies Of secession. AS yet, we are as
We were before the ordinance passed The in
convenience Of separation becomes more apParelt
as substitute for the Federal machinery is
sought after. Yesterday Mr. Cheeves brought be-
fore the Convention the following draft Of an or
dinance, which was referred to the appropriate
committee:

repeating the Secession Ordinance as possible
and not do it in 80 many words If the State
has gone out Of the Union, it still relies On the
Union to do its business.
The Legislature, having spent good deal Of
time in undertaking 10 wipe out tho record 80
far az il reelected that the adjournment from
Columbia to Charleston was Il stampede from the
ANAL pox, have gone into the confederation Of
measures designed 70 secure internal security; in
other words, 10 provide agsinst insurrection. 1t
is proposed to contract the intercourse of negroes
from plantation 10 plantation, and 10 provide for
q patrol police throughout the State. L. is not
the least remarkable feature Of this Secession
business, that measures initiated nearly month
ago as fundamental necessities to Secession, have
been suspended 70 allow those Of the above char.
acter to be introduced and matUred. Nothing
could speak palmer, that the first thing 10 De At
tended TO- as most likely to happen, is insurrec-
ton and kindred things.
A portion OF the Convention must adjourn over
to the 9th Of January, TO await the report OF the
Commissioners 10 Washington and the action Of
the other Cotton States, and an adjournment for
few days may take place, though nothing but
the passage Of the Secession Ordinance viii have
been accomplished.
