HE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE. This
body convened in Tallahassee on
Wednesday last. Gov. Walker takes
ground, in his message, against the
constitutional amendment, and pre-
sents his reasons at length for so
doing. The Floridina says it is not
likely there will be any votes in the
Legislature in support Oft.
The Governor touches brieflyupon
the conflict between the military
authorities in this State and the
policy of the President, as shown by
the interference of the former with
the civil tribunals, in utter contempt
of the Presidents proclamation, and
the setting up of special judicial tri-
bunals in equal contempt of the Con-
stitution of the United States.

From Washington.


The correspondent Of the Baltimore
Gazette writes
AS the radical members arrive, it
becomes more and more certain that
they will resort, as at the last session,
20 II preliminary caucus to inaugurate
u junta, into whose hands will be
committed the legislation of the coun-
try, at least SO far lis the question of
Southern representation is concern
ed. The adoption of this course is
undoubted proof that suspicion still
turks i'll the minds of the leaders as
to their ability, without the most
stringent tactics, to hold their party
up to the work cut out for them. In
deed, [ learn from reliable sources,
that some thirty or forty members of
the present Congress claimed by, and
heretofore acting with, the radical
extremists, will peremptorily refuse
10 support the ultra programme OF
their self-constituted leaders Ihave,
myself, heard members of the radical
side of the House, within the past
few days, scout the idea of the i'm
peachment of the President. Such a
movement is no longer thought, by
Intelligent men of any party, to be
among possible contingencies.
\ despatch to the New York Herald
says:
1t is reported that there are now
III the forts around this city and
between them and Baltimore some
fifteen or twenty thousand United
States troops. and the question is
asked what does this mean? Some
suppose these troops were collected
IN view of probable insurrection in
Maryland with the late election; some
conjecture that they are intended for
Mexico; while other astrologers OF
the radical stripe suspect that under
President Johnson's apparently COR
dial resignation to the results of the
late election, he meditates tremen-
dous coup d'etdt; that the Southern
rebel and the Northern copperhead
organs still agitating this thing, some
openly and others in mask, know
what they are talking about, and that
Mr. Seward, when he asked the peo-
pie, on the late Chicago pilgrimage,
whether they would have Andrew
Johnson cas- President or as king"
limited at what was coming. Presi-
dent johnson, they suspect, is pre-
pairing to quash q threatened i'm
peachment F.; but, they say. the ''boys
III blue are on the ga 0ice.
A special despatch to the Baltimore
Sun gives us the following informa-
ton
The internal revenue receipts to
date for November are Is, S92, 548,
and for the whole month are likely
to reach about twenty-one millions of
dollars, which is material falling off
from the same month last year. The
receipts OF the present fiscal year to
date are in round numbers SAL
100000.
Commissioner Rollins is now ex-
clusively engaged on his annual re-
port and one feature will be COM
paratiye showing of the workings of
the new revenue law as contrasted
with the law of last year.
The Secretary of the Treasury is
making heavy drafts upon the Ma
tlonal Banks, for the purpose of re-
deeming accruing debts of the Go
vernment. AS much as nineteen mil
lion of dollars were thus drawn from
the banks in one day.

Sunday Morning, Nov. 25. 1866.
Let the Worst Come.

Let the Worst Come.
Our telegaphic dispatches yester-
day morning, reported that Thad-
Stevens had arrived in Washington,
and announced his intention Of being
more radical than ever. Well, let it
be so. We agree with the Memphis
4AcGl niche, that it were bootless now
to demonstrate against anything the
radicals may do, or to inquire by
what authority, law or custom, this
OF that thing is or may be done.
In the radical catalogue Of preroga-
tives, "might makes right, and con-
stitutions and laws are regarded rs hnt
tracings upon the sands Of the sea
shore, which every wave may erase.
The South has taken her stand. 1t is
one of dignifed patience and waiting.
Let the worst come, and the sooner
the better, if there be any worst in
store for us. With unanimity as
cheering as it is just, the ten South
ern States will reject all further
amendments to the Constitution of
our fathers.
If we must live with men in the
Union, who teach rs nothing
but hatred, it shall be under the
framework Of . Government found
ed by the great and glorious pa
triots of the past, who left it to us and
our children as O legacy Of liberty,
which has won the admiration of the
civilized world. IF that foundation
or its superstructure be ever again
altered, it will not be by the sons of the
men who were its architects and
builders. Let that be tie work of
vandal hands, not that Of Southern
men. These last have always revered
the Constitution Of the United States
When the Southern people aspired
to separate Government, it was that
they might not live with the fanatics
who now control it. They had no
objection to the Constitution itself
for they adopted it as their own,
almost word for word. They did not
think they could much improve the
work of Madison and Hamilton.
This achievement is left for Stevens
and Butler. The South will never
consent to it, and, with Kentucky,
Maryland and Delaware by her side,
she cannot but feel proud of her posi-
ton.
The Legislature of South Carolina
meets tomorrow evening, and meets
at time fraught with the gravest
questions and most momentous issues
that ever were presented to the Ame-
can people. AS humble journalists,
who have endeavored to watch with
jealous scrutiny the current of events
in national politics, we venture to
urge that body to give the proposed
constitutional amendment due con.
sideration, and reject it upon the
strongest grounds that committee
of both houses, appointed for the
purpose, can bring forward. South
Carolina, the first to rebel against
what she thought was injustice, owes
it to her Southern sisters who have
already spoken on the subject, to
sustain them in their spurning Of this
attempt to make them record an act
of self-degradation, by trumpet
tongued eloquence and the most pow
erful arguments that her ablest men
can bring to the cause.
