Wma•Awexs I—.A meeting of the State Cap ital Wide Awake Club will be held in the Wig wam on Monday evening at seven o'clock.— Every member of the Club is desired to be in attendance, as special business of importance will be submitted for action. FUNERAL SERMON. —The funeral sermon of Frederick Heiny, deceased, will be preached to morrow morning in the Vine Street Methodist Church. The Paxton Hose Company, of which he was a member, have resolved to attend in a body, and invite the entire fire department to join with them. The procession will leave the Paxton Hose house at ten o'clock. =I OFFICIAL VISIT.—Hon. Thomas H. Burrows, Superintendent of the Common Schools of the Commonwealth, with four Commissioners ap pointed by the Governor, will visit the Normal School at Edinboro, Erie county, on the 23d inst., for the purpose of making the necessary Inspection preparatory to its recognition by the State authorities. Tao IXArGUBATION BALL of the Hope Fire Company comes off on Monday evening in Brant's spacious hall, which has been elegantly decorated for the occasion. Strangers in the city who designattending should procure tickets at once, as they are in great demand. The 'Evers" are determined to make this the most brilliant party of the season, and they seldom fail to accomplish whatever they undertake. RECEFEON OF 'Jarmo MuirAuv.—The mem bers of the Cameron Guard are ordered to meet at their armory on Monday at twelve o'clock, fully equipped, for the purpose of receiving visiting companies. It is understood that at least three companies from abroad will arrive by the trains reaching here about one o'clock. Others are expected to arrive by the evening trains. It is probable there will be eight or ten companies in attendance, most of them accompanied by equipped bands of music. WEER or PRAYBIL—The closing services .of the "week of prayer" will take place this even ing in the New School Presbyterian Church, corner of Market Square. Subject—" The speedy overthrow of all false religions, and the full accomplishment of the prayer, 'Thy Kingdom come." These meetings commenced on Mon day evening last, and have been continued nightly throughout the week, no doubt with great profit to all who participated in them, and benefit to the cause of religion. L'IYANTICIDE.—On Wednesday last a child, ap parently three or four days old, was found in the lot in the rear of the Lutheran church, at Altoona, with its throat cut from ear to ear. An inquest was held upon the body, and a ver dict of "murder by some person unknown to the jury," was rendered. A colored girl, who has been living at the Altoona House, was sus peected of being the mother of the child and its murderer. She was forthwith arrested, when she confessed the crime. She was committed to jail to await a trial. ANCYTIIV.R ROBBERY.—On Thursday night a sleigh and sett of harness were stolen from the stable of H. W. Hoffman, Esq., residing about two miles west of this city in Susquehanna township. It is supposed they were taken by the same fellow who stole Mr. Hoke's horse, an account of which we published yesterday. The Chief of Police last evening telegraphed to offi ten of neighboring towns, giving a description of the stolen articles, and we trust the thief will be captured. After writing the above we learned of the ar rest, at Elizabethtown, of a man answering to the name of Samuel Washington Minney, with the horse and sleigh in his possession. He was brought to this city at ten o'clock last night and lodged in prison. This morning he had a hearing before the Mayor, who committed him for trial. The man is evidently insane ; and from his incoherent raving while under exami nation we judge that he has been an inmate of the State Lunatic Hospital. He says he stole the horse and sleigh with the intention of pro ceeding to Washington, having been ordered by President Buchanan to report himself there without delay. The man is a much fitter sub ject for a lunatic asylum than a prison. lisgroga of WORKINGMEN. —We hear rumors to the effect that the mechanics and working men of Harrisburg intend holding a Union meeting shortly. We have a suggestion to make in connection with this contemplated demonstration .° Let the workingmen keep aloof from all entangling alliances with politi cal leaders. Let them do their own talking, frame their own resolutions, and prepare their own business in their own way. They have the ability to do this, and do it well ; but if designing and dishonest politicians get the lead, the diffidence of the workingmen will prevent them from giving full scope to their views and feelings. This hint, however, may not be ne cessary ; and we feel satisfied that if the meet ing takes place it will reflect credit upon the ability and patriotism of the mechanics of the Capital City. No persons in community are more affected, in business operations, by the present condition of affairs, then the industrial classes. It is therefore proper for them to speak out promptly and emphatically, We second the motion for a mass meeting at once. BEFORE THE MAI-cm—Four dilapidated vic tims of tanglefoot were before the Mayor this morning, having been picked up on the streets in a drunken condition, by the Chief of Police. The Mayor reprimanded and ordered them to leave the city. RESIGNATION AND APPOINTMENT.-Our friend 'Hr. Wm. H. Egle, recently appointed to a clerkship in the Post Office, finding the duties so laborious as to interfeie greatly with his pro fessional practice, resigned the position a day or two ago. The vacancy thus created was filled by the appointment of a young man named Whitman, of Halifax, brother of the former clerk of that name. ARREST FOR MURDER. —This forenoon a man named John Trump, of Fishing Creek Valley, was brought to this city on a charge of having, about four years ago, caused the death, by strangulation, of the wife of his brother Samu el, Mrs. Sarah Trump. The information was made by another brother named George Trump, upon whose oath the defendant was committed to prison by Alderman Peffer for trial at the next Court. It appears that family difficulties and altercations led to the exposure of the crime with which the prisoner stands charged; and circumstances, recently developed, are strongly against him. 1=1:1=1 PASSAGE or TROOPS.—The troops froth Fort Leavenworth arrived here about nine o'clock this morning over the Pennsylvania Railway. The force comprised two hundred and thirty-two equipped men and one hundred and twenty-seven horses, filling twenty-two cars. The party re mained here about half an hour, and were pro vided with refreshments in the depot dining saloon. Their arrival attracted an immense crowd of people, who were anxious to get a sight of so large a force of Uncle Sam's soldiers. The troops left at half-past nine o'clock, on the Northern Central Railway for Baltimore, under command of Colonel Brown, who had been dis patched here for that purpose by the War De partment. A portion of them go to Fort McHenry, and the balance to Washington city. We have seldom seen a finer looking body of soldiery. Col. Brown, in conversation with some of our citizens, very freely expressed his opinion of the.. runaway-secretary Floyd, who has long been engaged in supplying the South with arms and sacking the Southern forts and arsenals, with a view to the present treasona ble movements, and denounced him as an arch traitor who richly deserves to be hung. The Colonel is an intelligent and courteous gentleman, an experienced and brave officer, who "keeps step to the music of the Union," and can be relied upon in any emergency. I== A " LAGER PEER" DENOMINATIOX. — In a re cent prosecution in New York city against the keeper of a lager beer saloon which has been crowded every Sunday by pleasure loving Ger mans, the proprietor set up a novel defence. He claimed that his saloon . was .a meeting house for the " German Shaker Association," and that dramatic representations and thinking formed a part of their social 'worship. The court set aside this line of defence very summarily, and the ingenious proprietor suffered theitill sever ity of the law. Our readers may be curious to know the " creed" of this new denomination, of which the theater and lager beer form so im portant a part. Here it is : Constitution of the Religious Sect called the " Ger man Shaker Association."—The undersigned here by form a Society for the passing of a day of the week called Sunday, in a manner worthy of cultivated and thinking men, to rest from the labor of the preceding days, and to gather strength for the following. They meet togeth er to keep Sunday religiously with their fami lies, to listen to useful and serious addresses of serious persons, and of several speaking togeth er to represent occurrences from actual life, founded on morality, to counsel good and al ways to practice good, to avoid evil, and with our might and strength keep every one from evil, so to act toward our fellow-men as we wish to be treated by them, according to the words' in the Bible : "Love thy neighbor as thyself." We believe in the immortality of the soul im planted in us by the goddess Nature. We be lieve in the sacred beings who, by the strength of their souls, have guided thousands to paths of morality and virtue. We believe that the goddess Nature, Morality and Humanity, form a trinity, before which we bow down. We bat tle and work for this our religion by moral rep resentations. By delineations of the shady sides of human life, we strive to elevate men to become noble citizens of the universe. We declare these our Sunday acts to be our religious mode of worship. WIDE-AWAILES AND run INAUGURATION.—We have already announced the action of the joint committee of arrangements for the inaugura tion, by which political clubs, as such, are to be excluded from the parade on that occasion. Some of our Republican friends in the House took exception to this action of the committee, and yesterday Mr. HUHN, of Schuylkill, offered a resolution extending to "all citizens, societies and organizations of citizens, of this Common wealth," an invitation "to participate in the in auguration ceremonies." This resolution was earnestly and ably advocated by the mover, Mr. HUELN, Mr. PATTERSON of Juniata, Mr. GOR DON of Jefferson, and Mr. WILLLuts of Alle gheny. All of these gentlemen eloquently de fended the Wide-Awakes, alluded in glowing terms to their gallant and effective services during the late campaigns, and denounced any arrangement intended to exclude them from participation, as a political organization, in the inauguration of the man who is mainly indebt ed to them for his elevation to the Chief Ma gistracy of this Commonwealth. The Republi can torch-bearers throughout the State are un der obligations to the above named gentlemen and will hold them in grateful remembrance. The resolution was zealously opposed by Mr. lawnr of Cumberland, (Chairman of the House Committee of Arrangements,) Mr. Sznrzsit of Philadelphia, Mr. Bumr.a. of Crawford, and Mr. WILSON of Beaver. After a lengthy and exciting debate the resolution was postponed for the present by a vote of forty-seven to forty-four. The full debite, and the yeas and nays on the motion to postpone, maybe found on our second page. The proceedings will be read with inter est by our Wide-Awake brethren everywhere, and the record carefully preserved. Two Downs REWARD will be paid for the re turn of a black and tan TERRIER DOG, lost yesterday, has a yellow'eitat, over each eye, had a brass collar on when lost. Asnwers to the name of " JA.C11.." J . NO. A. Batas.. pennovlnania Daily Orelegrapl), Saturbav afternoon, January 12 1861. THAT SERENADE TO THE GOVERNOR. —The Wide- Awake Club of this city had made arrangements to turn out in full equipments, with lighted torches, and a band of music, to-night, on the arrival of the Governor elect, and honor him with a welcome serenade. The course, however, of the Committee of. Arrangements for the In auguration, induced our Wide-Awake brethren to rescind their action, and the contemplated parade and serenade will not come off. They fear that such a demonstration, by a "political organization," might, in the eloquent and clas sic language of a gentleman of the House of Representatives, "be unsuitable to the occasion, tending to make it a burlesque and a disgraceful scene I" The Wide-Awakes, therefore, having no desire either to "compromise" the Governor elect, or to increase the "weakness of knees" exhibited by certain Republieu i' who owe all they are politically to the organization, recon sidered their action, as above stated, and will preserve their coal oil for a demonstration on some future and more appropriate occasion. OLUL COAL REOIONS. — We glean from the Lyken.stown Journal some items of interest rela tive to our coal regions. The productions of coal from the Lykens Valley region, during the past year, was about thirty-nine thousand tons more than that of the preceding year, the en tire production of 1859 being one hundred and thirty-eight thousand seven hundred and twelve tons, and that of 1860 nearly one hundred and seventy-eight thousand. The bulk of the in crease is from the colliery worked by Henry Thomas, Esq., on the Short Mountain compa ny's property. We anticipate next year, the production of more than two hundred thousand tons. The Shamokin region has produced two hundred thousand four hundred and thirty eight tons, being an increase of nearly thirty thousand tons over the production of 1850. The Trevorton company has not sent to market as much coal as in 1859, by about thirty-four thousand tons. We learn that this decrease has been owing to arrangements'for a reorgani zation of the company, but little coal having been taken out beyond what was lying, ready cut, in the mines. The reorganization, we learn, will shortly be completed, when operations will be commenced on a large scale and its pro duction largely increased. The entire pro duction of the three regions is nearly four hun dred and eighty thousand tons, being an in crease, as compared with 1859, of about thirty thousand tons.

The Star of the West at New York Reports from Charleston Confirmed—Two of the Shots Fired took Effect• Several Parting Shots Fired at Her When Leaving Charleston Harbor. Preparations to Return and Effect a Landing at all Hazards ! The steamship Star of the West arrived here, during the night, on her return from the unsuc cessful attempt to reinforce Fort Sumpter. The troops returned on board of her. The Star of the West brings back the troops destined for the relief of Fort Sumpter. The report from Charleston was correct in relation to two of the balls fired at her taking effect. One struck her on the bow, and the second on the starboard quarter, between the smoke-stack and; the engine-beam. No person was hurt. She struck on the bar twice in coming out. At night, steamers were seen coming out of the harbor, supposed to be in pursuit. The same night she spoke the ship Emily St. Pierre, from Liverpool to Charleston, and refused admittance in consequence of the merican flag being dis played. When leaving Charleston Harbor, the Star of the West received several parting shots from the battery on Morris Island, and they all fell short. The general feeling on board now is to return to Charleston, with proper means of defence, and effect a landing at all hazards. Secession Demonstration at Richmond RICHMOND, January 12. At the banquet last night, Mr. From, in his speech, related a conversation with the Presi dent, showing a breach of faith on the part of the latter, as leading to his resignation. He counselled resistance to federal coercion. Se cession speeches were also delivered by Lieuten ant General Montague, Attorney General Tuck er, James A. Siddon and others. The tempo rizing policy of the State Legislature was se verely commented on. Great enthusiasm was manifested. The secession of the State was celebrated last night by the firing of a salute of a hundred guns, the illumination of the prominent build ings, and a parade of the military. One hun dred thousand dollars have been subscribed for the defence of Mobile. The Hon. Mr. Dix will not enter upon the du ties of his post as Secretary of the Treasury un til next week, having previously to arrange s ome business in New York. Death of an Episcopal Bishop.

I= =DEM SPECIAL DISPATCHES NEW Foltz, Jan. 12 SECOND DISPATCH Secession Rejoicing at Mobile. MOBILE, Ala., Jan. 12 The New Secretary of the Treasury: WASIMIGTON, Jan. 12 Speech of Senator Seward STATE OP THE UNION. WASHINGTON, Jan. 12 Senator SEWARD delivered his speech in the Senate to-day on the state of the Union. The galleries were crowded to overflowing, and the distinguished gentleman was listened to with the utmost interest and attention by Senators and spectators. - He commences his speech by avowing his adherence to the Union in its integrity ; with his party, his country, his State, or without either as they may determine ; in every event, whether of peace or war ; with every conse quence, whether of honor or dishonor, life or death. After rehearsing what courses will not save the Union, he desires a truce, at least, du ring the debate on the Union. It cannot be saved by proving secession illegal or unconsti tutional ; nor can anything be gained by dis cussing the right of the Federal Government to coerce States. If disunion is to go on, this question will, give place to the more practical one, whether the many seceding States shall coerce the remaining members to acquiesce in a dissolution. He argues against the folly of sep aration' its effect upon the standing of the United States among the nations of the world, the difficulties a new Southern Confederacy would encounter in forming treaties, and liable at any time to become the prey of stronger powers. In summing up his arguments, he states : Tinily—That while prudence and justice would combine in persuading you to modify the acts of Congress so as not to compel private persons to assist in the execution of the Fugitive Slave law, and to prevent freemen from being, by abuse of the law, carried into slavery, I agree that all State laws controveuing the Constitu tion or any law of Congress, ought to be re pealed. Secondly--Domestic slavery existing in any State is wisely left by. the Constitution exclu sively to the care, management and disposition of that State. I would not alter the Constitu tion in that respect, if in my power. lam wil ling to vote for an amendment of the Constitu tion declaring that it shall not, by any future amendment, be so altered as to confer on Con gress a power to abolish or interfere with slavery in any State. Thirdly—While I think Congress has exclu sive authority to legislate for the Territories, and while I certainly shall never directly or in directly give my vote to establish, or sanction slavery in the territories, yet the question with regard to what constitutional laws shall be passed in regard to the Territories, is to be determined onpractical ground. If Kansas were admitted Under the Wyandotte Constitution, I could vote to organize the organization and ad mission of the remaining States, reserving the right to effect subdivisions of them whenever necessary into several convenient States, if such reservation could be constitutionally made ; but if the measure were practicable, I should prefer a different course, namely : that when the eccentric movements of secession and dis union shall have ended, and the angry excite ments of the hour subsided then, say, one two or three years hence, I yould cheerfully advise a convention of the peope to decide whether any and what amendments of the organic na tional law shall be made. Fourth—l am ready now, as heretofore, to vote for laws to prevent mutual invasions of Fifth—l. remain constant in favor of two Pa cific Railways—one to connect the ports around the mouths of the Mississippi, and the other the towns on the Missnuri and the Lakes with the harbors on our western coast. He conclu ded with the expression of an unshaken faith in the Constitution and the 'Union. He feels sure that the hour-has not come for this nation to fall.- ___lt§ , Teonle are not perverse or wicked enough to deserve so dread= and s - c - frbre - 76, - punishment, as dissolution. This Union has not yet accomplished what good for mankind was manifestly designed by Rim who appoints the seasons, and prescribes the duties of States and empires. No, sir; if cast down to-day by faction, it would rise again and re-appear in all its majestic proportions to-morrow. Woe! woe ! to the man that meanly lifts his hand against it. It shall continue lind endure, and men in after times shall declare that this gene ration which saved the Union from such sudden and unlooked for damagis surpassed in mag nanimity even that one which laid its founda tions in the eternal principles of liberty, justice and humanity. PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS. No Hundred. Ladies and Gentlemen in the Senate Galleries. THE DIPLOMATIC CORPS ON THE FLOOR. GREAT SPEECH OF SENATOR SEWARD. Interesting Session in the House. Withdrawal of the Mississippi Con- grqssiontd Delegation. PROPOSITION TO STRIKE THE NAMES OF THE SOUTHCAROLINA AND MIS SISSIPPI MEMBERS FROM THE ROLL OF TEE HO USE. SENATE.—After prayer, Mr. CAKERON asked whether a vote could be taken on a motion to allow persons to:the floor of the Senate. Mr. Tomes (Ga.) made in objection to "a vote. The Pruoronrr decided that the rule might be dispensed With by unanimous consent. There being no Objection, the Diplomatic Corps were accommodated with seats. At least a thousand ladies, and more than that number of gentle men occupied the galleries, which were so crovded that-no more could enter. A motion to fill a vacancy in the Board of Regents of the Smithsonian Institute was laid aside. . Mr. Gwm (Cal.) moved that the Senate pro ceed to the special order, the consideration of the President's message. Mr. &wean took the floor at 12.38, and pro ceeded to the delivery of his speech. HOUSE.—Mr. CLARK, (Mo.) said that after reading the telegraphic accounts that the Post- Office Sub-treasury and Custom Househad been taken possession of by the U. S. troops, he de sired to explain for fear the account might lead the people to presume that these offices were located in the same building. As to what con dition of things at St. Louis could justify such an act, he knew not. The people there, so far, have been quiet and loyal to the Union: The legislature of Miisouri is now in iession, and will consider what measures may be necessary for the perpetuation of the Union. She makes no threats, while she is determined to take such steps as her honor and safety require; and this she will do in her own way and in her own time. Mr. Fmrlort (N. Y.) and others on the Repub lican side objected to further - remarks. Mr. Crams asked leave to offer a resolution, calling on the Secretary of War to communicate whether the Post Office, Sub -Treasury and Cus tom House, situated in St. Louis, have been taken possession of by United States troops ; if so,'-by whose orders, and whether there has been any attempt by the State or municipal author ities to improperly interfere with the said bunk Tugs, or whether the public property was threat ened. He said he did not believe the report. He was again called to order from the Republi can side. Objection was made to the reception of the resolution. Mr. CLARK asked whether he could move a suspension of the rules. The SPEAKER replied that it could be done only on Monday. Mr. CLARK hoped the majority of the House would not continue to object to the resolution and countenance a military despotism. The SPEAKER said that objection having been made, the resolution could not be entertained. The SPEAKER laid before the House a letter signed by the Mississippi delegation, stating that they had received official information that the State has passed an ordinance, through a convention representing the sovereignty of the people, by which the State has withdrawn from the Federal Government all the powers here tofore delegated to it, and that they thought it to be their duty to lay the fact before the House, and withdraw themselves from the further de liberations of that body. While they regret the necessity for this action of their State, they ap probate it and will return to her bosom to share her fortunes through all phases. Mr. Joass (Ga.) moved that the names of the South Carolina and Mississippi members be stricken from the roll, and shall not hereafter be called by the Clerk. Mr. ELY (N. Y.) objected. Mr. Pcrrr (Ind.) demanded the yeas and nays on the motion. Mr. Ibiltwnrr (Ky.) submitted that as these gentlemen have withdrawn it certainly cannot be assumed that they are now members of the House. Mr. Semes., N. Y. Do yon consider that they have resigned their seats ? Mr. Buns Err. I do and not only this, but that they are out of the Union by the act of their respective States. Mr. litxonam, Ohio. The remarks of the gentlemen from Kentucky are not in order. The SPEAKER ruled that the motion being ob jected to, it could not be considered..

Jan. 12 =I There was a Cabinet meeting last night, which was continued up to a late hour. The subject under. consideration was the dispatches brought by Lieut. Talbot from Major Anderson. There is no reason to believe • that anything farther will be yielded to South Carolina. TUE ST., LOUIS SUB-TREASITRY, SEC It is believed that the bill introduced in the Legislature of Missouri, prohibiting the Mayor or Sheriff of St. Louis from using the military force to suppress riot, looked to the seizuse of the public property; and hence the U.

The galleries of all the avenues leading to the Senate chamber were densely thronged at .arLearly hour this morning by persons anxious to hear - Elie great speeercor - Mtmator reward. TOOMBS A11:1 GENERAL At a private dinner party, yesterday, high words passed between Senator Toombs and Lieutenant General Scott. According to the relations of the scene in Cbrigressionol the conversation turned on the sending . of troops to Charleston, when Mr. Toombs expres sed a hope that the people there .would sink the Star of the West. General Scott, with much earnestness, asked if it was possible that he (Toombs) as an American, desired .such an event. Mr. Toombs replied affirmativer?, - and that those who sent the vessel there should be:itink with her. General Scott thereupon said he was re sponsible for what he said, and Mr. Toombs re marked, " You have known me for twenty five years, and are aware that I, too, am respon sible." The matter here ended, but the sub ject, it is said, is now in the hands of the friends of the parties. CONFER:RATION OF GENERAL DIX General Dix, of New York, was, as stated yesterday; tendered the position of Secretary of War, but preferring that of the Treasury, the President, to-day, sent his nomination to the Senate.for this office, - Mr. Thomas having re signed. The rule.requiring a reference of nom inatious to the appropriate committee is always courteously suspended When the nominee is an ex-Senator, as is General Dix, on the ground that his Character and qualifications are suffi ciently known without a special investigation. The rule on this occasion was unanimously sus pended, and the appointment. of General Dix immediately confirmed. TILE Is'"EW CABDIET The members now in the Cabinet are a unit on the present political questions, all those claiming the right of secession having retired. The Cabinet as reconstructed, is as follows Secretary of State—Mr. Black, of Pennsylvi.- nia. • . Secretary of the Treasury—Mr. Dix, of New York. Secretary of the Navy—Mr. Toucy, of Con necticut.
