DKVELOPENEBT OF THE ABOLI ZION PLOT Oar readers remember the remarkable letter' of Gen. Mc Cumr..l,l, to President LINCOLN, written at Mart/sores Landing, in Virginia, on Mon day the 7th of Jaly 1862. Although a year and a half old, this sagacious and prophetic erlistle from the accomplished General of the Army of the Potomac, was never given to thtS public until together with .his report, was forced out by popular and congressional clamor. From the letter question, we select the following par agraph and ask for it the reader's atten• tive perusal: "This rebellion has assumed the char• acter of wart as such it should be re garded, and it should be conducted upon the highests known to Christian civilize ton. It should not be a war looking to the subjagation,of the people of any State in any event. It should not be at all a war upon population, but against armed forces and political - organization.. Neither confiscation of property, pblitical execu tions of persons, territorial organizations of States, or forcible abolition of slavery should be contemplated for a moment. In prosecuting the war all private property and unarmed persons should be strictly protected, subject only to the necessity of military operations. All private prop• arty taken for military use should be paid or receipted for; pillage and waste should be treated as high crimes, all unnecessary trespass sternly prohibited and offensive demeanor by the military toward citizens promptly rebuked. Military arrests should not be tolerated except is places where active hostilities exist, and oaths not required by enactments constitution ally made should be neither demanded nor received." • The advice to the 'Preeident was bat in accordance with the expression of Con gress at the beginning of hostilities, in relation to the purpose of the Govern ment in undertaking their suppression. Bat Gen. MCPLEI.I.AN, saw that the Rad icals were determined to convert our struggle for National unity, into one for negro emancipation; and he, like a true Christian patriot, admonished the Presi dent of the danger of adopting that bloody and brutal programme.. Wag he not right" Efiti his advice beenialcen, and the efforts of the Government put lota' simply to erualwthe rebels in arms, and at the same time encourage tht Union feeling then so prevalent en the South, the country would now be in the enjoyment of a lasting peace. But this was not the purpose of those having con trol of the Administration. Their purpose from the bciginning was and is the de struction and devastation of the Southern country, and in order to be successful in their infamy Gen. MCCLELLAN must be go rid of. Ilia letter of the 7th of July 1 , - , 61 insured his removal: it accounts for al the efforts of the congressional ma ion of his countrymen, and it satis factorily accounts fur the persistent ca iumny heaped upon him ever since. The attempt of the Abolitionist. , to weaken the force or McCi KI LAN'S letter, by styling it a piece of dictation to the President, only shows the poverty of their malignity towards that soldier and patriot. He, eighteen months ago, warned the President of the dangerous tendencies Of radical counsels, and, as soon as it was . made known, that conclave of traitors to the Union resolved upon hie prostration, and have pursued him with all the fero city of half-starved wolves. He exposed their designs against the integrity of the Union, designs which Abolitionism no longer pretends to disguise. Bni if this serious and sagacious advice from IlenalsoN's Landing, by the bead of the Potomac Army, be dictation, what will be thought of the following 'piece of icsolence from Fano. DOUGLAS to the President, and that, too, 'while face to face in the White House? In a late leo turn in New York Docul.es' describing the interview said: "One thingj.toldtim which I now tell you; and it was; that if I were called upon CO point out the most discouraging feature of the presen, situation, it would not be any of the distress experienced by it ood and field by our forces, but it would be the tardiness and hesitation and vacilla• tion of the Preeident of the United Sta Ms. Mr. LINCOLN did not, of coarse, admit that this came from me, but went on at once to defend himself from the charges brought—and there was one charge he did not defend himself from at all., He ad• mitted that he was slow, but would not allow it to be understood that he was vas cilliating. He Said to me withgreat ear fleetness, "Mr. Donoue, I don't think that charge can be sustained." The distress occasioned by flood and field," the hundreds of thousands new made graves, and the countless thousands of widows and orphans throughout the land, are nothing, in DonaLas' estima• lion, to the tardirreall of the President in adopting the Abolition ;programme; and for this "the Governnspat" apologized to its sable mentor. This . account of Doro. Lea' interview is now extorting the lof tiest admiration from the very papers which see in Gen. hleCLsu...aa's letter nothing but dictation. Encouraged by his reception by the President, and the progress which Abolitionism hasrecently ' made, DociaLo : B XwOunced the future programme of his party—which is "not only his right to vote, but his determina tion to be voted for. "After this, equality and fraternity will be insisted on as the last scene in this revolution's strong , eventful history. HOW THE REBELS ARE SUSTAINED The Philadelphia Agt, commenting upon the late exposition of affairs in the N. Y. Custom 'louse remarks that it has for a long time been a subject of much wonder, among a good many people, bow the rebels procured means, arms, muni tions, &c., to eal* 'oir. • the'war. Recent occurrences have finally claiied up the mystery. It is now_ Aatohtiehed that Pres ident LINCOLN'S office holders in New York, and elaeWliiiire;' iire the very "boy-, al" and patriotic parties, who *4l , 4j:wen' engaged in nelping the rebels .t04_11P94 t hings as they needed, TheAtawouit parties engaged in this "lcyal" enterprise' however, were actuated by the beet of motives, pure Yankee "philanthropic and hunianitarian" principles; they only want. ed'tio prolong the war in order to give free• dom to "American citizens of African descent:" and they no doubt feared that, should the rebels be without arms,the war might come to a close before so desirable an event could be achieved. These favor• ites of "OLD ABE" didn't intend those gnus should kill Northern white men; not at all; they were only sent to the rebajeto enable them to keep "pegging away," until Providence could find time to knock the shackles from Samba's limbs. The wonderful extent of Yankee philanthropy may now be comprehended; it not only embraces the negro, but it is so disinter ested as to extend help to our enemies ale THE REBEL LEADERS IN TEXAS A correspondent of the New York Tri I bone, writing from Matamoras ou the 16th, of December remarks that it is a fact that the leaders of the rebellion in Texas, the southernmost of the South ern States, are for the most part "North ern men with Southern interests." For example: Willard Richardson, of the Gal veston News, is a native of Massachusetts; Cushing, of the Houston Telegraph, is a native of Vermont, and General E. B. Nichols, the financial agent of the rebel Convention, is a native of New York. Scores of rebel contractors and office hold ers, civil and military, such as Giddings, Howard, Sayles, and the like, first saw the light north of Mason and Dixon's line. Such are the men that some two years since discovered that they were of a superior race, and that all loyal men were "Yankees," upon whom they had a right to look down with a lordly contempt. An "exempt" from the interior of Texas, now in this city, tells an amusing anec• dote of the last named individual. It seems that, early in the rebellion, Mr. Sayles conceived the idea that the word "General" would make a handsome handle to hie name, and accordingly got himselt elected general of the militia. Before long a conscription was ordered by the rebel authorities, who prescribed that militia officers were not exempt from its opper ation. General Sayles was conscripted, and it was supposed that so zealous a rebel, albeit of Northern nativity, would either serve in the ranks or employ a part of hie wealth in hiring a substitute to fight in his place. In this the public were mis• taken. He did neither, but caused him salt to be examined and rejected (on ac count of his short sightedness) for "phy sical disability." General Sayles' optics appear to be like those of the man who, on being censured for shooting at an ani mal through a fog, justified himself by say ing he had shot in such a manner as to kill it if was a deer, and to miss it if it was a calf. Ho could see wall enough to be a militia general, but was entirely too short sighted to be a conscripted private' Statement of the Democratic Son The following statement was presented .o the Senate yesterday by the Democratic members who asked that it might be en tared .. _ . on the Journal, and so be come a ...0..„,.,, eenings. This privilege, always accorded in parliamentary bodies, was retased by the Jacobins of the Senate, lbr the reason, we presume, that it clearly establishes the falsity of the position they have assumed. We commend it to our readers as a clear and unanswerable yin.. dication of the course of Democratic Sen ators. Having sworn to support the Con• stitcition, they cannot yield to a revolu tionary proceedings which sets at defiance both law and precedent: The undersigned Senators beg leave to submit the following statement, in vindi cation of their action during the present contest for Speakership of the Senate : In many respects this contest has no Precedent in the history of the Common wealth. Its importance to those parties anxious for legislation, as well as to those engaged in the straggle, seems to justify, if it does not demand, a fair statement of the case for the consideration of the public. The Senate is composed-,of thirty-three members. Thirty-two were present at the time fixed in the Constitution for their meeting, and one a prisoner of war in the rebel States. Of those present at the pre vious balloting for Speaker, sixteen are Democrats, and sixteen are Republicans. Before the Senate met on the sth inst., each party held a caucus and nominated a. candidate for Speaker and Clerk. A num ber of ballots were had np to the adjonrn• ment on Friday last, for Speaker, which resulted in a tie vote each time. The Republicans anticipating, before the Senate met, this result, conceived the idea jof retaining their friends in o ffi ce by ad ( hering to the party organization cf the 'preceding session, under the plea that the Senate has a "perpetual organization;" and to carry out this scheme, the late Speaker took the chair, called the Senate to order, the returns of the election of Senators were read, the clerks were di recited to call the roll, and the Speaker announced that the Senators elect would come forward and be qualified. The four new Democratic Senators presented a DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL COM.

Every Legislature hug been considered independent of the precedii g one, and has invariably elected its Speaker and other officers - as directed by the Conti tution. It has been left for the Republi can Senators of this session to make the discovery, that a "political necessity," under the cloak of ''perpetual or ganization," will justify an unprecedeu , - ed and dangerous usurpation for the sake of a few petty offices. From this examination of tLe Journals, back nearly to the date of the adoption of the Constitution, it is ascertained that the Democratic Senators have all the prece dents—nearly one hundred in number— , to justify their course in this contest whilst the Republican Senators cannot point to a single case since 1791, to justify theirs. And in view of the constitutional ra quirement referred to, and the precedents for so long a period in the history of the State, there is but one proper and incon- I testible course to be pursued by Senators lupon this door, and that is, to be guided by the law and the experitnce of the past, and resist all violations of the one, and inovatione of the other, firmly and fearlessly to the end. In conclusion, the undersigned beg' leave to renew, as a basis upon which to organize the Senate, the proposition made in open Senate, on their behalf by the Senator from Berke, Mr. Clymer, on the second day of the session, viz : That the Republican Senators shall select the first office in the gift of the Senate, the Dem• °cretin Senators the second, and so al ternately through the list.

Stark, Wm. M'Sherry, D. B. Montgomery, C. M. Donovan, framers of the Citleitution, nor claimed by any previous Satiate, that old officers should preside over a new Senate and new members. The Constitution doe• not say that "each house" shall choose its Speaker annually, but that is its means ing and such has been the practice under it for seventy cad years. To divest this novel plea of "perpetual organization" of every pretense of right or custom on the part of its where, the Senate Journals have been carefully ex amined back to the year 1794, and the examitiatitiii is stated briefly as follows : From 1794 to 1864 no late Speaker has ever attempted to vualify new Senators, and 740 new Speaker has administered an oath to any Senator elect until qualified as Speaker himself. At every annual meet ing of the Senate, all the officers were elected or ro elected and qualified in due form by the new Speaker. From 1794 to 1864, the chair was always vacant during ballotinos for Speaker, and the Journals show teat the successful candidate "took the chair," or was '•run• ducted to it" by other Senators, made his acknowledgments and invited rome old Senator to qualify him. From 1794 to 1864, all the Senators voted for Speaker in alphabetical order, without the official designation, except in 1825, when Thomas Burnside voted as "late Speaker:" but he was not a candi. date for re election. From 17:44 to 1823, in the Journals made up during the annual organizations of the Senate, tie is designated as "late Speaker," and from that time to the present, he is designated as "Speaker," until the motion to proceed to elect a Speaker prevails, when he is referred to as '•having vacated the chair." In several instances there were a nuns• ber of ballots for Speaker, some of which were a tie, the chair always vacant and the late Speaker voting with other Sena tors, in alphabetical order. In 1842, there were thirty-five ballots for Speaker, and mach time consumed by the contest. Daring the struggle several efforts were made to elect a Speaker pro tempore even, for a few houre, but they were unsuc cessful. In 1838 is the only instance on record of a late Speaker entertaining any mo. Lion not strictly pertaining to the organi zation, and that was in relation to con tested seats. but when the Senate pro ceeded to elect a Speaker, Mr. Penrose vacated the chair. lie was re-elected on the first ballot, and "took the chair" agaia. In 1855, on the 4th day and on the twenfy seventh ballot, a Speaker was ohoseh. The late Speaker was the un successful candidate. Re did not occupy the chair, nor attempt to quaify the eleven new Senatorpresent. They were qualified by the. Speaker elected after be was qual ified himself. In every election of Speaker the clerks. have acted as tellers, except in 1814, when a Senator was named to act as one of the tellers, and, judging from the journals, they have conducted the eke- Lions as presiding officers. In 18u1, 1813 and 1819, the Speakers resigned their offices near the close of the sesston, in these words: "The Speaker reminds the Senate that in case of the death or resignation of the Governor, the Speaker of the Sense its the person appointed by the Constitution to exercise the office of Governor until another Governor shall be duly qualified. that the time for which he was elected Senator will expiry immediately preced ing the day of the general election: and that his oftice of Speaker will expire ac cordingly at the same time; that from a consideration of these circumstances, the propriety of electing a Speaker who may continue in that cflice until the meeting or . the next General Asseni6l4 in Deceniber next, is evident.

Resolved, That we deplore the enuncia tion of the schemes and purposes embod ied in the late Proclamation of the Presi- dent, appended to his Message, the inevi• table effect of which mast be to prolong and extend the bloody strife now raging among the people of the United States; and to furnish an additional verification of the worst apprehensions entertained as to the purpose of administration, to wit: the intention to subordinate the cause of the Union to the cause of Abolition. Resolved, That no State can withdraw from the Union by its own action; and that the assumption of Mr. Lincoln, as in dicated in hie late Message and proclama tion, that the revolted States are now out of the Union and are no longer States, and that they can be reconstructed as States and re admitted into the Union by a mere fractional vote of one tenth of their people cast within the limits of each, is a proposition at once revolutionary and pre posterous, manifesting an astounding in clination on hie part to act in utter disre gard of the Constitution and the elemen• tarp principles of our republican form of government, and at the same time tore shadowing a scheme through which stu pendous frauds may be practiced upon the ballot at the next election, and still more stupendous fraud upon sovereign States that have furnished without limit of their blood and treasure to put down rebels and rebellious States, ,y ndmitting into the Electoral College men who would have no legal or constitutional right to seats in that body; the :consammation of which scheme would be so dross an out rage upon the rights of the people and the States, as might fully warrant resistance on their part by all the means which God and nature have placed within their reach. Resolved, That it is our deliberate judg ment, that the enunciation of a wise and judicious political policy, at this time, on the part of the Administration at Washington, to the effect that, any State heretofore in revolt, within which resis• Canoe to the authority of the Government shall cease, should be allowed, through the vote of a majority of its electors, to resume its former statue and functions in the Union, would promptly draw to the cause of the Union thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of citizens of the revolted States, theredy hastening the res toration of peace and union among the States, and saving the lives of thousands of our fellow citizens now in the field. Resolved, That the Democratic party will cortinue their efforts to uphold the Constitution of the United States, and to re-establish its supremacy both at the North and at the South; so that neither the revolutionary schemes of the Aboli tionists nor of the Secessionists shall avail against it. The resolutions were unanimously adopted. On motion of the lion. GEORGE 'SAK DERSON, of Lancaster Co., it was unani Resolved, That. the thanks of this Corn. mittee be tendered to the Hon. CHARLES J.
