Tho Pony Express with San Francisco
dates to the 22d, passed here at ~ o'clock
last night. The outgoing Express with
st. Louis dates to Dec. 4th, reached San
Francisco on the goth. The Presidents
message came through to Sacramento on
the 10Th. 1t was telcgraphed thence to
San Francisco by two wires and immedi-
ately published in the Bulletin & AltG.-
The reading of the Message and proceed
ings of Congress up to the 7th of Dec. only
tend to increase the anxiety of the people
concerning the critical condition of the
Union.
The entire press of the State now take
serious views of the Secession movement
and favor the preservation of the Union, il
possible, by mutual concession. All the
Republican papers advocate the repeal Of
the personal liberty bills of the Northern
States.
There is some talk of organizing Pa
ci6c Republic if the South secedes, but the
present sentiment Of vast majority of the
people is undou uotedly to strive to preserve
the Union as it is, and to stay with all that
remains of the Union if any portion Sc
cedes. The Legislature of Washington
Territory was in session. Paul X. Hubbs
was elected President of the Council. The
Douglas Democrats have majority in tho
Council, and plurality in the House.

WHEREAS, Treason, as defined in the Con-
stitution of the United States, exists in one
of the States of the Confederacy; and
WAereaS, 1t is the religious as we'll rs
the patriotic duty of each State in its SOW

Whereas, The State of New York is

FROM WASHINGTON.
W. Washington. January 8.

Hs washington, January y.
1t is believed from what is known here
that in the C urse of few days the Forts al
Pensacola and Key West, Fort Morgan, Al
ALBANIA, the Fort at Ship Island, near the
mouth of Lake Borgne, together with the
Arsenal at Batcn Rouge, and ortJohnsou,
on the Cape Fear River, will be seized and
garrisoned by the troops of the respective
States in which they lie.
Senator Toombs received dispatch TO-
day, stating that the Forts in Georgia were
seized by orders Of Gov. Brown.
Private information says that if any at
tempts be made to reinforce the Arsenal
at Augusta, or remove the arms, it will at
once be seized.
The South Carolina Commissioners con-
slider the abrupt termination by the Presi.
dent of their business with him as grossly
insulting to themselves and State; that
they will treat it as a declaration Of war,
and in this spirit they left this city this
morning for South Carolina.
1t is said that the President yesterday
returned their note without comment.
No motion was made to-day to 90 into
executive session on the nomination Of Mr..
McIntire as Collector at Charleston. He
is resident Of York, Pennsylvania.
There is now well authenticated evidence
of the purpose Of the Secessionists to seize
upon Washinpton and prevent the inaugu-
ration of Lincoln. For this purpose 500
men have been drilling for months past in
Maryland and Virginia, under an officer Of
the regular army.
LATER.-Mr. Buchanan re-iterates his
determination to collect revenues at Charles
ton, and the steamer Ancasta, now here,
has been ordered to be in readiness, for
the purpose, if necessary, to assist McIntire
in tho execution OF his duties.
Five thousand citizens of Baltimore have
signed letter to Gov. Hicks, of Maryland,
approving his refusal to convene the Legs.

THE True Basis OF SErTLEMENr--No
adjustment can be reached unless the south
ern States formally agree to abandon all
pretensions, for all time to come, TO secede
from aud break up this Union. They must
recognize the government as government
capable Of preserving itself. How can they
propose to reconstruct a government while
claiming the right at any time to secedc
from and destroy it. Senator Wade made
the overwhelming point in the Senate this
morning, when he said that he had no idea
Of making bargain with men who might
carry thei, State out and Join tho common
enemy at any time, or turn the forts of the
Federal Government against the Govern
ment ITSELF Here, then, is the only plat
form upon which The Union can be pre-
served. no concession TO secession, and
when secf ssion is abandoned all the rest is

ExPosURE OF THE Isolated STATE -
The Charleston Msrrwy has had its atten-
ton directed to a very grave matter--the
exposed condition Of the South Carolina
coast. Itsays:
"From the open and accessible character
Of our coast, some persons fear that we will
be soon subject to predatory incursions.--
The Northern seaports abound in lawless
and reckless population, many Of them ac-
customed to maritime pursuits. They are
fast feeling the folly and rascality which
has controlled the politics Of the North
Want of employment and its attending des-
titution are ripeuiug them for any mischief.
South Carolina will soon be hostile and

cause of their present sufferings. Some ol
them may seek both plumber and revenge,

doubt, that a combination is forming tc
take forcible possession of the Government
at Washington on or before the 4th Of March,
but the precise time is not yet determined
The above is from sources which leave
no doubt Of its reliability. Many censure
the apparent inactivity of the President,
contending that by availiug himself of the

rested.

The ARMY AND SEcEssIoN.-Itis report.
ed that some one asked the veteran Gen.
Wool, the other day, if the army would be
likely to divide in case of secession, and fail
to obey orders from tho new President. The
gallant old man drew himself up proudly
and replid, ."Do you think, sir, that the
army is going to fail the country at the mo.
ment it is needed? No, sir. Furthermore,
| allow no officer or man under my COM
mand, to admit the possibility of disunion
and if hear that any one has spoken in
favor of it, will court martial him with all
possible expedition; and Gen. Scott feels

STARTLING REroRr.-The Springfield
Republican makes the following statement
awe have information, the correctness Of
which we cannot doubt, of conspiracy OF
certain political desperadoes in New York
to take advantage of any moment of excite
ment that may occur in these agitated
times and attempt to create anarchy and
bloodshed in that city in furtherance of the
cause Of the Southern dsunionists. With
in short time two thousand stands of mus
kets have been shipped from Savannah to
New York, and placed in the hands Of
these mon, by the fre-eating couspirators,
to be used for revolutionary purposes, and
in behalf Of tho South, whenever an op-
Iportunity occurs. This seems almost in
credible, but distinguished officer in the
army is assured of the fact, and has his eye
on the guilty parties, whose movements
will be constantly and closely watched.

The other day at the dinner table of the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, man
from the extreme South was indulging in
noisy talk and making himself very con-
spicuous and offensive by the utterance Of
radical disunion and traitorous sentiments
against the Government. A quiet gentle
man, who sat nearly opposite him, waited
until he had about exhausted his TRADE,
when he electrified the table by addressing
the braggart thus: "Sir, don't know who
you are, nor where you come from; but il
you were aboard my vessel and uttering
such sentiments, / would hang you TO the
yard arm in FIVE minutesp The traitor
arose after little and inquired of a bystan-
