Llneolu's Reeeptiou at Baltimore.

The Baltimore Correspondent of then. 7.
Tribune writes: it-
BALTIMORE, Feb, l6, 1861.
The Mayor of Baltimore, the Hen. William
George Brown, Llearn, has signifed his in
tention to meet the President elect on bis
approach to our city, and tender him the
usual official honors. It is supposed that the
Council will appoint a Committee to act in
conjunction with the Mayor but nothing is
yet known positively Of the intention of tina
body.
-Four years ago, the Mayor and Council c
Baltimore, though all Know-Nothings, re
eeived Mr.. Buchanan with all the honors,
and provided grand dinner for him al
Barnum's, but Khen the COMMITTEES repaired
to his chamber, to accompany him to the tsbIe
they found that their guest had, few minutes
before, for some unexplained cause, ordered
a carriage and driven of to the Washington
depot, in company with friend. We are
certain that Mr.. Lincoln would never have
been guilty Of such a breach of common
caurtssy, backwoodsmRn though be be.

The votes taken in the Compromise Con-

TEE WoRLD's VERDICT.-The Washington
correspondent Of the Charleston Mercury
sends to South Carolina the following state
meni:
A distinguished gentleman, just returned
from long sojourn abroad, says that the
duty Of the Southern Confederacy is to pay
no earthly attention to the opinion of the for
eign public The South is universally de-
spissd at all the European Courts. Our peo-
pie are amongst the lowest grades of human
ity, grossly ignorant and brutal and addicted
to laWlessnsss and vice. This o. inion, based
upon the ISLANDERS OF the Eorthern press, will
never be changed until we have relieved OUT
selves from dependency upon the Northern
papers, and proved the contrary by the estsb-
lishment Of vigorous and polished ltera-
ture, and, above eli, by brilliant feat Of
arms. We must hrst have our cause prop
erly championed in a way to reach Europe
and inspire respect for our courage. There
viii be plenty Of time to excite admiration
for our culture.

Mr.. Thomas HutchisoR of Boyle county,
Ky, lately visited Mr. Lincoln at Spring
field. and In reply to the question what was
the feeling Of Kentucky concerning the pro
slavery rebellion, answered that the people
Of that State we're for the Union, but that
they would regard any movement Of coer-
cion as a declaration Of war. To this state
ment Mr.. HutchisOn reports Mr., Lincoln as
replying, emphstically;
sqf Kentucky means to say that if the
Federal Observation-Disclosures to re.capture
the Southern forts and collect the revenue,
and war ensues, she will unite with the
South, let her prepare for war"

sELrna ran WORLD BY EEIEaRipH.

The report in relation to RtsIsgraphic sur
vey, made yesterday by Hon. John Joch-
rane, as Chairman Of the House Committee
on Oommerct, was based upon the memorial
of P. Med. Collins, Of California, whose
name is very familiar in connection with his
interesting journey from ST, Petersburgh to
the mouth Of the Amoor river. The report
provides for careful survey of the route ior
a line Of magnetic telegraph from San Fran
cisco via Oregon, Washington Territory, the
British North American possessions, Russian
America and Behring Straits down TO the
mouth Of the Amoor river. The two nation
al vessels of the United States which are to
assist in the survey, win necessarily ft cut
and start from San Francisco. The tele-
graph proposed, via the route named, in con-
nection with the Sibley Telegraph line from
Missouri to San Francisco, and the Russian
line, building from Moscow TO the mouth Of
the Amoor, will connect the whole civilized
wsrld by continuous telegraphio commune
cation.
