Alarming Intelligence.

1. is stated upon reliable authority that
it is the intention of the rebel leaders OF
South Carolina to attack Fort Sumpter as
soon as Major Anderson's envoy, Col.
Havne. returns from Washington. Not
withstanding all that is said about the
improguability of the fortress, tits almost a
physical impossibility for garrison Of
sixty men to successfully hold out against
such odds. Unless they are reinforced,
and that soon, Major Anderson and his
command will be destroyed, and the key
of Charleston Harbor taken by the rebels
Lieut.. Hall was to leave Washington on
Sunday evening, with final instructions tc
Major Anderson.

The Voice of Henry Clay.

During the debate in the Senate in 1850,
on the "Compromise Measures OF that
year, Mr. Dawson, of Georgia, declared
that the contingency had arrived which
compelled the calling OF convention IN
his State to provide for the extreme rem
edy Of disunion. Henry Clay followed
him, and in the course OF his remarks
threw out the following patriotic senti-
tments, which every man at this time
ought to read:
Now, MIR. President, [ stand here in
my place, meaning to be unawed by any
threats. whether they cJme from IN

much as any man living or dead, that

This village is in two sections or divis- |
ions. the one embracing the vicinity OF
the western end Of the Pennsylvania Kaii- |
road tunnel, generally known as 'N est /
End :" the other, known as Tunnel hiil,
occupying the high ground above the shalt
of the tunnel Though part Of the same
village it is nearly half mile from Tunnel
Hill to the western mouth Of the tunnel
The village is all in Allegheny township.
Gallitzin occupies the summit OF the
Allegheny mountain, and that portion
known as Tunnel Hill is perhaps the
highest populated territory in Pennsylva-
MIA. 1t overlooks the eastern brow or the
mountain, and affords a magnificent
view.
Bituminous coal is found in great abun-
dance in It's immediate neie hborhood; and
MANI Of its citizens are engaged in mining
/ this article. Until within the last year or
so. it has been shipped to the east in large
quantities; recently, however, the work
has ceased, owing to the tishtness Of the
money market The Allegheny Coal and
Mining Company have been the chief
operators.
The population of Gaiitzin is about
400 inhabitants. Its Improvements, IN
addition to the Railroad and tunnel, are
the public road from Summit to Ashland
Furnace, which runs on the summit Of the
mountain. on the line between Blair and
Cambria counties, over Tunnel Hill, divi-
ding the village and forming the principal
street, and public road from West End
by Dawson's mill to Loretto.
The settlers are mostly Irish or their
descendants. \ Catholic church Is still
I standing, but is about to give place 70 a
: chapel, to be atteuded from Summitville
There IS also a Presbyterian church, and
school house.

A Costly ADMINISTRATIONS graph
ic eptome of Mr. Buchanan's a1ministra-
ton is contained in the following brief
extract from Washington letter in the
Philadelphia North Amertcan.
Three hundred millions Of dollars will
have disappeared by the 4th of March
next, for the administration of the Coy
ernment in time of profound peace with
all the world. What is to show for this
criminal extravaganza and mal-appropria-
ton Nothing but distracted country
beggared Treasury, aq enormous debt
and deficient revenue. These are the
results Of Mr. Buchanan 5 single term.

News EteEE 5.

We learn, says the n. Y. Tribune, that
Mr.. Lincoln has invited the Hon. Henry /
Winter Davis, of Baltimore, to seat in
his Cabinet. We are not aware OF any
reason why Mr.. Davis should not accept
the invitation. We presume he will have
the portfolio of Secretary Of the Navy 1t
is hardly necessary to say that we regard
this as an excellent appointment. Mr..
Davis, though still young man, has had
great experience in public life, and COM
bines ability with energy aud frmness.-
The country will approve the selection.
All the important forts at the South,
except part of the works at Pensacola,
Fort Sumpter, Fort Monroe, Fort Wash
iprton on the Potomac, and Fort NJ Hen
~, are now in possession of the revolution
lists. This condition of things was pre-
concerted by Mr.. Floyd.
RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 18.-The State
Senate debated the resolutions passed in
the House yesterday, contemplating hold
ing National Convention. Amendments
were proposed for the more certain protec-
ton of the South in the proposed basis of
adjustment No action was taken The
House passed a bill appropriating one
million of dollars for the defense Of the
State, and authorizing the issue Of treasury
notes to that amount, bearing six per cent
interest.
WASHINGTON CITY, Jan. 19.-Secre,
tary Holt transmitted to Congress a state
ment from Col Craig, chief of the ord
nance bureau, which shows that early last
year, by special direction of Secretary
FLOYD, he transferred 115,000 stand o
arms from Springfield and Watervliet t.
arseuals in North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, Georgia, Alabama and Louisiana
The arms sent to South Carolina, Ala
bama and Louisiana have since been seizec
by the State authorities.
RICHMOND, Jan. 19-The followin
resolution was adopted by the Legislature
"ResoLccd, That if all efforts to reconcil
the unhappy differences between the sec
tions Of the country shall prove abortivt
then every consideration of honor and il
teres, demands that Virginia shall unit
her destinies with her sister slaveholdin

MILLEDGEyILLE, Ga, Jan. l9.-Th

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.-Gen. Scott now
openly declares that he will be at the side
Of Abraham Lincoln from the moment he
arrives in Washington upti! he is iraugu-
rated, and If any blooi is to be shed to
virdicatc the Constitution and the laws,
his shall be the first to crimson the earth
in defence of the honor and majesty Of his
country and her laws. The old hero is
aroused, and takes no pains to conceal his
anger. In his position and declarations,
he is sustained and applauded by the Chief
Justice OF the United States Supreme
Court, Roger B. fancy. Judge fancy
declares that he will travel to either the
shores of the Atlantic or the Pacific, to
administer the oath of office to Abraham
Lincoln. provided an attempt to prevent
his Inauguration in Washington should
succeed.

TnE MoB.-Private letters from the
best sources in Charleston dated on Sat

PREPARATIONS FOR WAR.-There Is
no Disgusting the fact, says a correspond
cnt Of the Tribune, that Massachusetts Is
ready to respond promptly to any demand
made upon her for troops to sustain the
Union and the laws. l learn to-day, from
the highest authority, that seven thousand
troops can be put in marching order on
twenty-four hours notice, and that one
hundred and forty-fve thousand men are
enrolled in the militia of the State. OF
this number, twenty thousand could be
easily mustered. The financial resources
Of Massachusetts were never in better
condition for an emergency, and the peo-
pie are enthusiastic to be enrolled Adiu-
tant General Abbott, of New Hampshire,
arrived at Boston on Saturday, from Wash
ingtOn, and left Immediately for Concord,
with the intention OF recommending to
Gov Goodwin that the Granite State be
Immediately placed On war footing
! Considerable excitement exists in conse-
quence of the reports that the musketS
removed from Springfield Armory have
! been distributed over the South. Mr.
! Whitney, Collector of Boston, late Super
iutendent of the Armory at Springfield
had returned from there, having beer
there, it is supposed with reference to the
report from Washington to the Heralc
that 20 600 muskets have been taken from
the Armory and sold to Virginia. The
feeling is deep and not to be misinterpret
ed. There is no mistakin@ the fact tha
! Massachusetts, is in earnest in this crisis
The merchants are plucky, and the nam'
of Anderson is uppermost in every conver
