Charleston, Jan. l6. - Governor Pickens
sent message to the Legislature to-day, ad
vising the raising Of two more artillery compa-
MES, and one more regiment, to serve for three
years. He advises a permanent garrison Of
extensive Notifications in South Carolina.
This, he says, may be expensive, but consider
lug that they soon shall have Southern Con-
federacy, it is necessary to protect the sea.
coast, and afterward transfer the troops to the
Southern Federal Government. The fanatical
excitement of the Northern people shows US
that if we expect to preserve the peace, we
must prepare tor war.
The House of Representatives passed bill
to stay the collection and prosecution of all
debts due by South Carolinians to men in
non slaveholding States, until after December
next.

Our town is entirely quiet again to.night-no

The pavements were more free from snow
and slush to-day than yesterday; and observe
that pedestrians between our cities now gen.
orally take to the new aqueduct BRIDGE that
beautiful, though yet unfinished, structure. A
substantial footway has been very accommoda-

a standing disgrace to the corporate authorities
of your city.
The news from South Carolina has ceased to
either startle or astonish our citizens They are
prepared to hear the worst and all seem to be.
lieve that the reign of the Rhetts and Keitts
(rats and cats) will be of no very long duration.
The Anderson Rifles were out last night, pa
rading our streets. They reflect much credit
on themselves and our city by the degree Of
perfection to which they have attained in so
short period, by their soldierly bearing, and
by their high social and gentlemanly qualities.
The snow has not yet been carried off by the
slight rain which has fallen. Rather free use
of it has been made by some Of our more lively
larks, one of whom, by the way, was this after
noon brought up before Justice King, charged
with snowbaing, and as it was his first offence,
was discharged, his only punishment being
lecture, whereby he was made to understand
that snowbaling is against the law"

VIRGINIA Lecislature.

Richmond, Jan. l6.-The House Committee
on Federal Relations reported Mr.. Smiths res
olution, that it is inexpedient for the Federal
Government under existing circumstances, to
concentrate any additional military forces in
Virginia, inasmuch as it is liable to miscon-
structon, and tends to create uneasiness in the
public mind, and requesting the Governor to
obtain immediate information of the purpose
of the General Government with respect to

" preen-eyed monster" in his bosom by re-
peated doses of the ardent, undertook to per-
form the harikari which is the japanese
mode of sending a soul to eternity, on his
brighter.colored rival, Davis. His attempt at
this performance consisted in drawing a knife,
and inhicting an ugly wound on his rivals arm.

George, and took him before Justice McKenna,
who committed him to Jail to answer this
charge.

OF THE WEEKLY NATIONAL
REPUBLICAN,
WASHINGTON, D. c., December, 1s6

WASHINGTON, D. c., December, 1860.
The undersigned have commenced the publica-
tion, in this city, Of a weekly newspaper, called
the National Republican.
It is printed on large sheet, ~ by AZ inches,
and Is furnished at the low prices stated below.
It will contain all the original matter OF the
daily National Republican, with the exception of
local news not interesting to country subscribers
1t will give full reports of the proceedings
Of Congress, and Of the other departments of the
National Government.
1t will contain all the news of the day. foreign
and domestic, markets, &C., &C., as wefr as an
original correspondence from all parts Of the
country. The miscellaneous department will re-
ceive special attention, and in all respects, the
effort will be made to establish the character of
the National Republican asa
FAMILY NEWSPAPER.
In politics, the paper will be Re 4blicsn, sus-
taiDing the incoming Administration of Mr.. Lin
coin, but disclaiming, however, any pretenson
to be the organ OF the President elect.
There is no other Republican paper in the
District of Columbia, or in the vicinity of it, and
1t is believed that recent events have opened to
such paper an important sphere of useful ef-
fort. The time has come, when the actual ad-
ministraton Of the Government upon Republican
principles will explode the misrepresentation
which have made those principles so distastefu
to the South.
But it is not only here, and in this vicinity,
that the projectors Of the National Republican
hope to make it useful. To the whole country
they offer journal which will discuss national
politics from a national standpoint, and which
will never be swerved from patriotic duty by any
overpowering pressure Of local interest.
