Hon. Iohn j. Crittenden.

Those who heard the speech of Gov. Bragg in the
Commons Hall on Friday evening last will long re-
member the beautiful and eloquent compliment
which he paid to John j. Crittenden, the patriot
and sage of Kentucky. In contrast with this we
present the following extracts from the Charleston
Mercury, the leading organ of the disunionists:
"Mr Crittenden is full of lamentations on the fall
of the Union. In Congress, and out of Congress
on the hastings, and in the Senate-the Union is
the theme of his laudaion and its destruction the
burden of his woes; yet, there is not man alive
not Seward, nor Lincoln, nor Greely-who has done
more to dissolve the Union than the Hon. John j.
Crittenden.
He has never respected the people Of the South,
and therefore has always counselled their submis-
sion to Northern insolence and aggression. He has
all those lively hopes which spring from contempt
He has ever been, however unintentionally, one Of
the deadliest enemies of the South"
This tratorous sheet hates Mr.. Crittenden because
he deplores dissolution and because he is now labor
ing to prevent the middle States from following the
bad example of South Carolina. Whatever the is
sue may be, the name and services of John j. Crit
tenden in this crisis will be green in the memories
of all good men long after the Ketts and Rhetts Of
our misguided sister State shall have been forgotten

REMARKS OF MR.. BROWN,

On the Resolutions Of the Legislature Of Virginia,
proposing that the sldrehOLdtng and other States
should send Commissioners to the City Of Wash
ington, on the 4th Of February merit, to confer
together Nth respect to the difficulties bet"een
the North and South.
Mr.. Brown said, that he hailed with unfeigned
pleasure the resolutions which had Just been read
from the noble old Commonwealth of Virginia.
From no State could the voice of peace and justice
to all come with more propriety; State which had
been true to the reserved rights Of the States
and to the Constitution of the federal Union-a
State which, in the perils Of the Revolution Lord
CORVALLIS, in dispatch to the British Govern.
ment had spoken of as 1.-THE great and unterrifed
colony" To no other State in this Union could an
invitation to unite in this noble and patriotic mis-
sion have been more appropriately addressed than
TO North Carolina-earest at the shrine ofindepend-
ence, among the most constant in its maintenance
during the revolution and since, it peculiarly
fit that she should take deep interest and leading
part in councils convoked to ask equal protection
for all, and aid in once restoring peace and
harmony to the country, and the enjoyment of the
great blessings won by the revolution. The geo.
graphical position Of these two conterminous COM
monweaths their great resourccs-their powerful
military force-their known devotion to the Union,
with the Constitution its basis, all would contri-
butte in conjunction with other States to accomplish
the great objects which ardent patriotism so
much cherishes
Mr. B. said that it was a matter of no small con-
ISOLATION to himself that his course and views,
for sometime entertained and expressed, should sub
stantiay find sanction in the views set forth in the
resolutions of Virginia-the largest slave holding
State of the Union and more consistent than any 9TH
er support of State rights. The resolutions of Mr.
Crittenden, with the slight notifications proposed
by Virginia he thought furnished basis of adjust
ment on which patriots in every latitude could stand
He trusted most sincerely, that the Legislature Of
North Carolina would promptly unite in this at
tempt at settlement Of the disturbing questions
which agitated the country. He bad for some time
viewed this or such plan as the only practical
BILE means of bestowing peace by safe and honor
able adjustment to the country.
Mr.. B. concluded by moving to refer the resolu-
tions to select committee of both Houses, which
Mr.. Avery moved to amend by referring them to
the committee on federal relations, which Mr.. B.
agreed to accept -

WAsHINaroN CRY. Jan. "a 1861,

WASHINGTON ClTY, Jan. "a, 1851.
There is great rejoicing here tonight, in conse-
quence of the receipt of a despatch from Mr. Gar
rard, Treasurer of Kentucky, announcing that the
Legislature of that State has decided against calling
a convention, which has been urged only by the Sc
cesslonists. This is considered equivalent to dec
laration against disunion. The Union men here
from Kentucky and other border States, especially
from Maryland, are congratuating each other at the
noble stand taken by Kentucky, while the dsunion-
lists appear very much chagrined.
letter received from Frankfort KY, tonight
says the Legislature passed resolution authorizing
the display of the national flag upon the State
House. and the firing of thirty-three guns in honor
of the Union. The flag was run up, and commit
tee was appointed to call upon Governor Magoffn
to obtain his authority for using cannon. He re-
fused. The Union men then notified him that if he
refused the use of the cannon they would take it
The Governor then assented, and the salute was
fired amid the greatest enthusiasm of the people.
Senator Crittenden and the Kentucky members of
the House of Representatives, have joined in petit
ton to the Legislature of that State, recommending
the appointment of commissioners to meet in this
city similar representatives from other States.-M
