Letters are pouring in upon Republican Congress
men, from all sections of the North, commanding
and imploring them to resent the cumulatng inso-
lence Of Southern Representatives. There seems to
be quite a general impression that the spinal col
umns of the Northern men indicate want of spirit.
am happy TO testify in behalf of the great major
itv of both Senator's and Members of the House.
They have hitherto conceived-and wisely in my
judgment-that silence would effectively disconcert
the conspirators. This policy has worked admira-
bly,, and the Republicans now hold a mastery posi-
ton. To be sure, the outrageous virulence of Dis
unoniss has been hard to bear, but it has been pru
dent to submit to it under the circumstances The
outside pressure, however, is growing so strong
that the gathering storm must soon burst and we
shall then know the worst.

what the Correspondent. say.

Referring to the probability Of secession, the cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Commercial says;
WASHINGTON. Dec l3.-Whether the subject is a
fact or bold conspiracy TO defraud the North CT its
principles and power, IS something the future will
develop. Some among US maintain the latter, but
the majority perceive too much semblance of earn
estness in Southern nleGaces.@ The few are con-
scious that the Cotton States lrN withdraw from the
Union, bet they contend that such secession will be
a mere parchment operation, and that re union viii
follow in the due Of time. Such men as sew
ard, Preston King, Collamer and Fessenden-the
best men in the Senate profess confidence IN tins
programme-and some Southern members entertain
it. But against them is an overwhelming, intense
outside Southern pressure for secession whieh
prompts nine out of ten the capital to believe the
South is fatally in earnest Besides politicians have
too clearly learned that Revolutions never go back
ward" The South recognizes this philosophy and
are conscious the North has 60 concessions such as
they demand, to offer.
Ienterpret the outside sentiments of Southern
men 10 be dissolution Of the Union" Republicans
and Douglas men with few exeeptio1s) are de-
ternined under existing lights to maintain the
Union They will not use force until compelled by
inexorabe necessity, ard in self-defense. The po-
sition assumed by Preston King in the Senate an
unmistakabe foreshadowing of the sentiments of the
Republicans.
During day or two the political horizon assumed
encouraging aspects but the tide is ebbing again
Iow-water mark. Each succeeding flow of public
hope is weaker each recession of the public feeling
more violent.

The Covodc Congressional Invcsti-
eating Committee (says the Washing
ton correspondent of the Cincinnati
Gazcttc,j has made more startling
discoveries of corruption in the book
binding contracts. Even Judge Black
himself declared if certain testimony
was true, the conduct of the Pres-
dent was INFAMOUS" The same tes-
timony has since been corroboratcd
by five competent and reliable wit
nesses. The testimony referred to
fixes upon the President the direction
of the profits on the binding contracts
to support papers and influence cleo
tions in violation of law in the same
manner as was done with those from
the printing contracts.
The Committee of Public Expcndi-
lures, of which Haskin is Chairman,
is about to investigate the whole sub
,jcct of the transportation of army
stores to Utah, during the difficulties
there for the last few years Look
