THE WASHINGTON NATIONAL VOL
UNTEERS.


The following matter appears among the
kilograms to the Baltimore Sun:
Washington, Jan. 10, midnight.-The Ma.
tional Volunteers held q meeting here tonight,
at which several hundred persons were present,
for the purpose of perfecting and extending
their military organization. One of the reso.
lutions adopted by the meeting was as follows
Resolved, That we will act, in the event of
the withdrawal of Maryland and Virginia from
the Union, in such a manner as shall best Sc
cure ourselves and those States from the evils
of foreign and hostile Government within and
near their borders"
This was, until lately, party organic alton,
gotten up, as its friends stated, as an Offset to
the "Wide Awakes." And it is not less
party organization now, although it has taken
q military form. 1t is composed, largely, of
employees in the Departments.
1t was these National Volunteers, who COM
posed the body and power of the mob which
attacked the Republican "Wigwam on the
night of the Presidetial election. They were
then formed in line, and addressed by their Of
fcers as National Volunteers" their " nation.
ality" consisting entirely of their "Democ.
racy."'

diate secession but, in order to thwart any
operations Of the Government here, the seced.
ing States are to retain their representations in
the Senate and the House.
They also advised, ordered, or directed the
assembling Of q Convention of delegates from
the seeding States at Montgomery on the 18th
of February. This can, of course, only be done
by the revolutionary Conventions usurping the
powers Of the people, and sending delegates
over whom they will lose all control in the es.
tablishment Of a Provisional Government,
which is the plan Of the dctators.
"This caucus also resolved to take the most
effectual means to dragoon the Legislatures of
Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, Tex.
as, and Virginia, into following the seeding
States. Maryland is also to be influenced by
such appeals to popular passion as have led to
the revolutionary steps which promise conflict
with the State and Federal Governments in
Texas.
"They have poss 'ssed themselves of all the
avenues CT information in the South-the tele-
graph, the press, and the general control of the
postmasters. They also confidently rely upon
defections in the army and navy

CONGRESS YESTERDAY.


The House, after passing a few unimportant
private bills, considered and nearly finished
the naval appropriation bill.
In the Senate, Mr.. Hunter spoke at length.
He said that Virginia had not yet acted, but
would certainly secede. The dissolution of
the present Union he viewed as thing accom-.
plished, and the work of reconstruction was
all that remained to be attended to. in addi-
ton TO the other guarantees necessary for the
South, before another alliance with the North
would be assented to, Mr.. Hunter demanded,
Substantially, two Presidents. He proposed
FIRST and second President, to serve successive
terms of four years, to be chosen SO that the
slave States should have one, and each to be
invested with the veto power.
Mr.. Harlan followed, partly in reply to Mr..
Hunter, but principally upon independent topics,
in speech Of two hours. 1t gave great salts
faction, and is regarded as one Of his most able
efforts. We cannot attempt any synopsis Of it,
and can only refer to single part Of this
admirable treatment Of the suggestion that the
Middle, Western, and Northwestern States would
desert New England and go with the South.
What probability was there, he asked, that
they would throw off six States, and with their
numbers thus reduced to twelve, make them
selves the political vassals of the fifteen slave
States2 Would the West and Northwest, whose
favorite measures Of home steads, of improving
rivers and harbors, and of Pacific railroad,
were all opposed by the South, prefer that con.
nection to the present alliance with New Eng.
land, which had supported these measures? OF
course, the West and Northwest valued the out
let of the Mississippi, and were determined to
hold on to it; but could they forget their con.
nections with the Atlantic, artificial by canals
and railroads, and natural by the lakes and the
St. Lawrence? And, above all, could they for
get the ties Of blood which united them to the
Esst2
