To the Soldiers Aid Societies Of s. G..

In answer to the numerous enquiries which have
been made by the different Aid Societies which have
been recently formed throughout the State, 1 have
been imtructed by his EXcellency Gov PICKENs to
give the following information.
Depots will be established by the Quartermaster
General, both in Charleston and Columbia, for the
reception of all donations of clong and he is also
charged with the duty of forwarding and distributing
the same.
The department" will receive all donations Of
clothing say frock coats and pantaoons, of heavy
worsted goods, shirts ano drawers, of heavy home
spun or flannel, WOOL or heavy cotton socks blankets
new or second hand, also heavy shoes.
The plan upon which the State designs supplying
her soldiers with all necessary clothing is based upon
their Willingness to surrender to the State the amount
of money appropriated by the Confederate Govern.
ment for this purpose say fortytwo ($42) per annum
this sum not being sufficient in consequence of
the greatly advanced cost of material 1t is in view
of this fact that these laudable Associations of la
dies and gentlemen cordially welcomed as coad-
tutors in this noble work, and in proportion to their
voluntary contributions Of labor and materials, will
the absolute of clothing for gallant volunteers
be reduced.
In the event that any of the Associations should
not feel themselves able to furnish both material and
labor the Quartermaster General is instructed by his
EXcellency the Governor, to reimburse such Associ-
tons the cost of all materials, at rate not exceeding
similar materials purchased by the Departments" :"
and the quantity allowed for each garment shall be
the used in our Manufacturing Bureau.
Societies are particularly requested to advise the
Quartermaster General of the quantity of work they
can do per week, and the amount of donations they
will probably send.
To prevent confusion and loss, the following method
for marking packages should be strictly observed All

officer could not, before he left Fort Moultrie, have held that post fortyeight or sixty hours He had warned his countrymen of its dan ger He felt that the duty was faithfully but imperfectly performed. He was conscious he meant well for his country.
 Mir. Howard, of Michigan, moved that the message be referred to special committee of i've with instructions to inquire whether any executive officers of the United States have been or are now treating or holding commu- nication with any person or persons tor the transfer of forts or any other property ; whether any demand for their surrender has been made, and by whom, and what answer has been given; whether any officer or officers have entered into any pledge not to send rein forcemcnts of troops to the harbor of Charles ton, if so, when, where, by whom, and on what considerations; whether the custom house, Postoffice. and Arsenal at Charleston have been seized and by whom held in pos session; whether any revenue cutter has been seized, and whether any efforts have been made to recover it; the committee to have power to send for persons and papers, and re- port from time to time, such facts as may be required for the national honor, etc."

PREsIDEyTs uESS1GE TO CONGRESS.


 The following message from President Buchanan was dispatched to Congress on the 9th inst. After somewhat exciting debate Mir Towards motion to refer it to a special committee of five prevailed:
 "The speaker laid before the House a mes sage from the President. He says at the open ing of the session, he called attention to the dangers of the Union, and recommended such mcasures of relief as he believed would have the effect of tranquilizing the country, and save 1t from the perils in which 1t is needless ly and unfortunately placed. It is not neces- sary to repeat this opinion and recommends tion. His opinions then expressed remain un- changed. He regrets to say that matters in stead of becoming better are still worse, and hope is diminishing.
 Alluding to the condition of South Caro- lina he says there is no other alternative but to collect the revenue and protect the public property as far as practicable under existing laws. lis duty is to execute and not to make the laws. The right and duty to use military and naval force against those who illegally as sail the Federal Government are clear and ln- disputablc, but the present state of things was beyond executive control. We are in the midst of great revolution, and he rccom- mcnded Congress to act in the present cmer- pency. To Congress is reserved the power to declare war and remove the grievance that might lead to war, and restore peace to the country. On them rests the responsibility. After eulogizing the blessings conferred by I ,+ 4, ty will be as severe in Southern as in North ern States. The secession movement is chiefly made on an apprehension as to the sentiments of a majority of several of the Northern States. Let the question be trans ferred from the political assembly to the ballot box. The people will redress the grievance. In heavens name let the trial be made before we plunge into the assumption that there is no other alternative. Let us have reflection Would that South Carolina had reflected He appeals to Congress tosay in their might: The Union shall and must be preserved by all constitutional means. He recommends Con- g6ess to devote themselves to prompt action, with view to peace. A division on the line of 36 deg. 30 min. is suggested as calculated to produce an adjustment. It was an impu- tation on members to say they will hesitate a moment. The danger is on us. In several of the States forts and arsenals have been seized by aggressive acts. Congress should endeavor to give the difficulties peaceful so- lution. He states reasons why he had re- trained from sending troops to Charleston harbor, believing this would have furnished the pretext, if not the provocation, on the part of South Carolina for aggression.
 Referring to Major Anderson, he says that

FLORIDA STATE CoNvENTIoN.-In this body, on the Sth inst, Judge Mcintosh offer ed the following preamble and resolutions, which were made the special order:
 WHEREAS, All hope of the preservation of the Union, upon terms consistent with the safety and honor of the slavehoding States, have been finally dissipated by the recent in- dications of the strength of the anti-slayery sentiment of the free States, therefore be it
 Resoleed, By the people of Florida, in con- vention assembled, that it is the undoubted right of the several States of the Union to withdraw from the said Union at such time and for such cause or causes as, in the opin- ion of the people of each State, acting in their sovereign capacity, may be just and pro- per; and, in the opinion of this Convention existing causes are such as to compel Florida to proceed to the exercise of that right.
 The preamble and resolutions were adopted by vote of ayes 62, nays 5.
 The Convention was in in secret session the most of the afternoon.
 It is reported that the forts, and other Federal property in this State, have been taken possession of by the military acting un- der the order of the Governor

IT SEEMS to us that every effort which has yet been made, by those who wished to sec the Union of States perpctuated in honor and harmony, has been misconstrued on both sides of Mason's and Dixon's line, and turned as batteries against the very cause in behalf of which such endeavor was made When those who did not pray for the precipitate dismcm- berment of the government, having resolved to try every means in human power to ar range plan by which the several States could prosperously exist, banded together by com mon Constitution, have expressed themselves, in solemn convention, as anxious for all the Southern States to unite upon some sure basis and solidly demand permanent recognition of all their Constitutional rights, and ask pledges of their perpctuity and in the event that such an effort should be unavailing. the best means must then be devised for uniting the entire South, under the inalenable right Of revolution, to establish a separate confcde- racy for the purpose of protecting and enjoy ing their rights, they have been denounced by the warm-blooded Southerners as being "con- temptibe submissionists," and unworthy the land of their birth, and the report of these meetings heralded forth by the lying, fanatical Republican presses as gatherings which were sympathetic with their own detestable senti- ments, thereby lulling their followers into the belief that their cause had friends enough in the Southern States to bolster up an admins tratlon for them during the next four years
 while they could batten upon the spells of ottce, and wage war in words and deeds upon the institutions of the section which claims the right of property in the African race
 We deeply regret this state of things for two reasons first, because the past Accommodations by the immediate Secessionists, of the friends of the Union in the South, will, in all probability, cause non-concert of action in the dark times which will shortly be upon us and most re- qulre unanimity; and secondly, that the mis- representations of the Union meetings by the Northern press have so misled their peo- pie as to the real state of feeling which exists Tn the South, that it will most likely be the cause Of many bloody fight, and forever place the hope, of bringing together again the States which once composed the Confederacy upon any kind of terms, beyond all possibility.

MR B. F. BOONE has introduced bill into our State Legislature, entitled an " act to vim dicate the rights of the citizens of Arkansas against such States as have passed Personal Liberty. bills in notification of the Fugitive Slave law, which, we notice, has passed the House. The substance of 1t is that no one residing in the States enumerated, among which are Indiana and New York, shall have "redress for or on account ofany property, in the courts of Arkansas" until their Legisla- lures repeal the said Personal Liberty bills. If MR. BOONE had investigated the matter fully, before framing his bill, he would prob ably have found that New York and Indiana have enacted no Personal Liberty statutes

A REMINfSCENCE OF EULNORE'S ADNIJN

A "REMINISCENCES OF FILLMoRE's ADMIN IsTRATIoN.-When, about ten years ago, Mill lard Fillmore was President of the United States, and the frolicsome Palmetto threatened q to cut up some of their old shines, that excel lent executive officer caused strong body of troops to be quietly put into Fort Moultrie. The gay and gallant Palmettoes, says The New York World, awokc one fine morning and found this awkward fact suddenly staring them ill the face whereupon their chivalric Governor waxed wroth and applied to Presi- dent Fillmore for explanation. Sir" was the answer, "the President of the United States is not responsible for his of1icialconduct to the Governor of South Carolina" The amiable President then in office did not particu- larly affect leonne or heroic qualities; but he understood his duty to the Constitution he was sworn to support, and his vigorous mode of confrontingrebellion, nipped it in the bud, to the great satisfaction of everybody, except the combustible and explosive Palmetto
