COOLED DowN.-The .AAa's Washington cores
pondent in late letter says:
Everything, so far as it can be ascertained
here, tends towards final peaceful solution and
settlement of the present difficulties. Mr.. Hayne,
the messenger from South Carolina, who came
here last week prepared to present the utimatum
of that State prior to an actual attack upon Fort
Sumter, has modified his plan materially since
his arrival, and is engaged now in the endeavor
to preserve peace, instead of publishing to the
world the preface of war. He was notified by
leading Southern Senators that other States had
intetests involved in this matter that if they
persisted in this demand she could not be sus-
tained by single Southern State; that they
would inaugurate civil war which her sister
States could not and would not participate in or
sanction 1t was her first duty to invoke all the
appliances of peace for peaceful negotiation {;
and when these has failed and all hopes of salts
factory adjustment were exhausted, then resort
to arms might be justifiable. This notification
had the effect of producing an entire change of
policy on the part of South Carolina, and now,
sGrim visaged war has smoohed its wrinkled 'front.'
while the border States are actively engaged III
perfecting plan of compromise and Cancellation.
In this entertain scarcely doubt that they will
be successful"
