MEANNESS.

Mr.. Huger, the postmaster at Charleston,
writes the Department that he will collect and
hold for the United States all postages, &C.,
and make his quarterly returns, as usual. He
esteems this course consistent with the postal
ordinance of the State. AS other postmasters
in South Carolina will probably take the same
course, these gentlemen evidently expect tha
their postal system will continue to be carried
on, and the mail contractors continue to be
paid by the National Government, as hereto.
fore. This is throwing upon the country an
annual burden of two hundred thousand dol.
lars for the benefit of a State which has seized
forts, arsenals, revenue cutters, custom houses,
and post Offices, and is now throwing up bat
teries to cut off relief to Major Anderson.
This is mesnness with vengeance. They
have neither the money, or the administrative
skill, to manage their own mails, and they
want it done by a Government which they re-
pudiate.
The national Republican., 1861-01-08
THE FORCED LOAN.

The Charleston Courier says that the $400, 600
loan has been taken by the several banks Of
the State, contributing in proportion to their
capital. This must mean the balance Of the
loan, not squeezed out of individuals by terror.
The Charleston papers have themselves stated
that individuals have contributed, and the fact
is otherwise known.
The following case, which we have had re-
ported to us from the most authentic sources,
will show the modus operandi:
A lawyer in Charleston, who went there from
New York city, is possessed of a property
which he values at six thousand dollars, being
his house and furniture. He received an init.
nation, of course delicate, that he was expect
ed to take two hundred dollars Of the loan.
This sum, in the terrible condition Of things at
Charleston, he was unable to raise. He wrote
his friends in New York, describing his pre-.
dicament, and expressing his apprehension
that his house would be mobbed if he did not
produce the money demanded. His entreaties
were SO urgent that his friends in New York
mustered up the required sum.
This is the way things are carried on al
Charleston. 1t is as much Pandemonium as
ever Paris was in Rcbespierre's time.
The national Republican., 1861-01-08
ARMS SENT TO THE SOUTH.

The following precious piece of deception
has been telegraphed from this point all over
the country:
Washington, January 5.-On inquiry at the
War Department, have received the following
explanation as to the large quantity of arms
that are reported to have been found in the
Southern arsenals. They state, that before
June last it being found that the arms at the
several arsensls were not proportionally dis
tributed, and that Southern arsensls were quite
deficient in those supplies, distribution was
made for equalization only, and for no other
object. They we're principally drawn from the
Springfield armory and the arsenals at Water
vliet, New York, and Watertown, Massachu'
sets. They represent that the secession trou'
bles had not then commenced. After this dis.
tribution was completed, there remained pre-
ponderance Of arms at the North"
1t is easy to see why the necessity of this
"eqnalization happened to be discovered,
about "June last," when the secessionis's had
carried their point of securing the election of
Mr.. Lincoln, by breaking up the Democratic
party. Secession was then determined upon,
and Mr.. Floyd proceeded to furnish it with
arms
The national Republican., 1861-01-08
THE NEW YORK MERCHANTS OPEN.
ING THEIR EYES.

At meeting of the New York Chamber of
Commerce, (January q, certain things, not
strictly mercantile, were discussed, according
to the reporter of the Herald in this wise
"Previous to the commencement of the bust
ness of the Chamber, and after the close of
the same, the members Of the body began con.
versing, in strong terms, regarding the conduct
of South Carolina. Mr.. Royal Phelps stated
that he had but one of two courses of action to
choose from, viz To join in with the secession.
lists or his country. His choice was easily made.
He strongly condemned the course pursued by
the South Carolinians. He had lost all sym
pathy with them. Others Of the Board, who
had previously sympathized with South Caro-.
lima, now denounced them as traitors, declar-
ing, that when the issue was between the sup
port of Union or Treason, there could be little
choice left, not only for the whole North, but
for all true Americans-and that was to oppose
the latter, heart and SOUL"
We have never doubted, all appearances to
the contrary notwithstanding, that the great
body of the New York merchants would see
that after all, it is their interest to support q
Union upon which the greatness of New York
depends, and that, seeing this, they would final
ly abandon their Democratic disunion associa
tions, and rally around the only national party
pledged to uphold the Union and the Constitu
tion, Just as our fathers established both.

MARYLAND.-The reply of that old Roman,
Governor Hicks to the application of certain
Senators, that he would convene the Legisla.
ture is published.
He says
81 have extensive means of information as
to the wishes of the people, not possessed by
those who urge this measure upon me, and
am fully convinced that an immense majority
of these throughout the whole State, are firmly
opposed to such action"
The Union demonstration at Baltimore is

Immense efforts are still made by the seces.

cate that they will be defeated.

SENT NoRTu.-A Raleigh IN. C.) paper
states that on Tuesday last, nine persons were
carried through that place on their way North,
from South Carolina, with their heads shaved.
The editors suppose that these persons had
said something against slavery, but the parties
themselves stated that their offence was, being
in ,faror of the Union. The distinction would
hardly be noticed in South Carolina, where a
friend of the Union would be instantly de.
nounced as an abolitionist.
When we get at the real history of the man.
ner in which an apparent unanimity has been
produced in South Carolina, we shall have a
mass of details of ferocity and intimidation.
1t will not be long before the country will be
appealed to by oppressed citizens there, to come
and relieve them from the mob which is now
rampant.

The national Republican., 1861-01-08

V1ReryrA.-Governor Letchers message was
delivered yesterday. The points are reported
by telegraph, as follows
He renews the proposition in his last mes
sape for Convention of all the States, and
saws it is monstrous to see Government like
ours DESTROYED, merely because men cannot
agree about domestic institution. 1t be.
comes our State to be mindful of her own in
terests. New considerations are I'd be formed.
We must have the best guarantees before we
can attach Virginia to either.
He condemns the hasty action Of South
Carolina, which, he says, has taken her South.
ern sisters by surprise.
He opposes State Convention at this time,
and suggests q commission Of two of the most
discreet statesmen to the Legislatures Of those
States which have passed personal liberty bills,
and insist upon their unconditional repeal, ex.
cept to the New England States.
Virginia must have proper and effective
guarantees for the protection of slavery in the
District of Columbia.
Our equality in the States and Territories
must be fully recognised, and the rights OF per-
son and property adequately protected and Sc
cured also, that we be permitted to pass
through the free States and Territories unmo
Tested, and, if slaves be abducted, the State
where the loss occurs shall pay their full value.
That like guarantees be given that the trans
mission of slaves between the slaveholding
States, by land and water, shall not be inter
fered with.
That the passage and enforcement of rigid
laws for the punishment Of such persons in the
free States as may organize, or aid or abet IN
any way or mode whatever in organizing com
panies with view of assaiing the slaveholdng
States, and to excite slaves to insurrection.
That the General Government be deprived
of the power of appointing to local Offices in
slaveholding States persons hostile to their in.
stitutions or inimical to their rights.
He further says that he will regard any nt.
tempt Of Federal troops to pass across Virginia
for the purpose Of coercing any Southern State
as an act Of invasion, which will be repelled.
He is not without hope that the present
difficulties will find satisfactory solution.
Let New England and Western New York be
soughed off, and ally themselves with Canada.
As there is no "possble contingency" in
which Federal troops can desire to cross Vir.
ginia, the threat Of resisting their passage can
only be required for home consumption.
Morning Session.-The House unanimously
adopted a resolution to appoint committee
with instructions to report bill for assembling
a State Convention. Anti coercion bills were
introduced in both Houses.
Erening Session.-The House refused to re
consider the resolution relating to State Con
vention.
Anti coercion resolutions were reported from
the committee, and passed. They say that any
attempt to coerce State will be resisted by
Virginia.
There are strong manifestations in the Leg
islature Of disapproval of Governor Letcher's
positions.
