NO CONVENTION.

Our Tennessee exchanges, as they come t0 hand, nearly all bear evidence of 'le popular dissatisfaction at the dofoat of the Convention. We give couple of extracts from the columns of ewo influential papers. The Clarksville Chronicle thus talks out:
 "The signal defeat of the Convention has taken us somewhat by surprise. Even where the immediate secessionists were supposed to be predominant-in Memphis, for instance the result has been the same. We regret Its defeat. not because we favor immediate seces- sion, but because we fear that the failure to call Convention, taken in connection with Andy Johnson speeches, may have the effect to strengthen the backbone of the Republl- cans, and increase the difficulties ot settle ment."
 The Columbia Herald, the leading paper in Maury county, says:
 "Upon its face the late election is an em- phatc and unmistakable declaration, on the part of the people of Tennessee, that they are willing to submit to the rule of MT Lln- coin, Chicago platform, negro equality, coer- cion. or what not. And that, too, without any guarantees whatever Such is the inter pretation put upon it by the Abolitionists hence they are firing cannon and building bonfres, and exulting with exceeding great joy; such is the interpretation put upon t by the citizens of the Southern Republic hence, some are heaping curses loud and deep on Tennessee; all are filled with sorrow and regret, and many are humiliated and cha grined, for Tennessee has many sons in those States Are the Aboltionists right? Are the Southern people night? Does TennesSet, mean to be abolitionized? We answer, no Our people have been deceived-misled, Had they foreseen the effects of the vote they cast last Saturday, never would it have been giyen"

NEW ORLEANS AS TT IS.

The New Orleans Picayune speaks of the present aspect of business ard trade in that city as follows
 ''The sounds of busy, thriving industry warehouses are plentifully stocked with goods, wares and merchandise. The commerce of our noble port remains unobstructed. Ships, and other sail vessels, steamships and steam boats, laden with valuable cargoes are contln- ually arriving and departing The products of the great valley, and importations from abroad pour in upon us. Mercantile trans actions, on that extensive scale for which this city is noted, are continually occurring. The vast extent of our magnificent leyee, so adml- rably adopted for and properly dedicated to commercial purposes, is fully occupied. x
 During the pre- sent winter the habitual detractorS of New Orleans had a fine opportunity to display their malicious ingenuity, and, i'll justice to them, we must say that they have labored with zeal worthy of better cause. Their inventions, some of them very absurd, with a view to our injury, have been numberlcss, and therefore we cannot begin to rccapltu- late them The task would be too formid- able and too nauseous. Since Louisiana se- cedcd from the Federal government, the whole country has swarmed with cdnorls in reference to this city and her citizens, all evidently designed to deter the people from coming here. With timid and not well-informed persons, these, of course, in some instances, have been too successful. Nevertheless, we have had crowds of visi- tors this winter, and still they come. They find our commerce unobstructed, as we be- fore said, lively, and on as large or larger scale than ever

MARSHALL RrNDERs 0N THE CRISIS

Marshal Rynders made speech in New York the other day. We quote from it a single passage, which will show where the Marshal is
 "True Democrats at the North will never fight against the South If 1t is treason, let them indict me for it, or if it is misprison of treason let me be doubly indicted. The Democrat who would fight against the South is more than half Republican. If 2 Demo- cratic company volunteers to go South to sub- jugate the South, l say to them, you are trai- tors to 70 IT country, and l trust that the de- stroying angel will pass over you in the night time, like he did over the host of Sennachc- rib and that the rising sun will look down upon the upturned faces and fixed, Slaring eyes of your corpses"
 A voice. Y ou are political demagogue. ''
 Rynders-'' 1 won't go on till that man is put out. Are you afraid to put him out, you d-d cowardly set?' Man is put out. Three cheers are given for Rynders, who proceeds "Who brought this trouble on our land Not ourselves. We had no hand in dissolving the Union. We did all we could to avoid these troubles. But if war comes, and 1 have to fight, 1 will fight to the death for South Carolina"

SOUTHERN CoNFEDERACY TO BE RECoG- NIzED.-The following letter is from Colo nel Hennocque, Senator of the French Empire, to Prof Dubos, of South Carolina :;
 PARIS, Jan. 14-The news of the seces- sion of South Carolina struck every one here with surprise, and I must say it was at first received with somewhat of a dis dainful sentiment. But a reaction has talk en place since in the public mind, in con sequence of the explanation given by MT. Gailardet, the former editor of the Courier des Etats Unis, of New Yerk, and of your correspondence, that was published and com mented upon by several newspapers. We do not see why South Carolina should not have the right to secede from the Union as we'll as several States of Italy have done with their government. You may rely that the policy of the Emperor is not only to sym pathize with oppressed nations, but also to prevent intervention against them; and that he will recognize your Government as soon as it is regularly organized and constituted.

Navigation of the Mississipni.

The Southern Congress at Montgomery, on the 22d ult., passed an act declaring and es- tablishing free navigation upon the Mississippi river. This conduct, so characteristic of that hberalty and purity of feeling which is known to pervade that assembly of statesmen, is nothing more< than was to be expected from

LINCoLNs CABINET-From all that we can learn, the only Cabinet appointments which have yet been made by the President elect are Mr. Seward and Mr. Bates, the head and the tail of his ministerial establishment
 The body of 1t still remains to be chosen. Meantime there is desperate movement a1oat among the Republican radicals to get Seward overheard for they regard him as the unfaithful prophet Jonah, who may other wise sink the ship. The radicals are also moving heaven and earth to keep Cameron, a conservative, compromise man, out, and to get Gov. Chase in. who is a full believer in the Chicago platform. Thus the President elect hangs fire, and he may be compelled to resort to the Peace Conference at Washing ton to compromise the present squabble among his own household. TN. Y. Herald.

uvoK PENSACOLA.
FoRT BARANcAs, Feb. 12.

FORT BARANCAs, Feo lz.s Last Saturday another bearer Of dispatches arrived from Washington, and demanded passport and conveyance to Fort Pickens. lie was at once sent over by Col. Lomax but the character of his dispatches is not yet known. Some two hours after his arrival, signal flag was raised upon the Fort and heavy gun fired. At intervals through the day the gun was fred but for what purpose we could not learn. The next morning the mastS ot the Wyandotte came in sight, and immedlately after another gun was fired from the Fort the stars and stripes" put at half-mast, and' although daylight, a rocket sent up me Wyandotte came secretly into the harbor, ana under flag of truce, run up to the Navy yard, and a little to the Fort where she IS now lying Nothing new appears this morn ing, except the smoke of several fires upon Fort Pickens and two extra derrlcks and sling carts, for the purpose of mounting heavy guns. They seem to keep busy over there, and mount two or three guns day Now they have more than double the number than when we came, and in addition, two heavy Cocorn mortaas. [Cor. Columbus Times
