to;be a bad business everywhere.
The South Carolina Legislature has

WASHINGTON ITEMS: The venerable
Lieutenant-General in conversation with
a distinguished member of Congress, ex
pressed the utmost confidence in being
able to preserve peace in this city on
the fourth of March next. According to
his suggestion, the committee who will
accompany Mr. Lincoln will be com
posed of Democrats and Americans, se
lected from the best of their organiza
tions. -
Washington is now more free from ex
citement than it has been at any time
since the commencement of the session
of Congress. Apprehensions of difficul
ties attending the inauguration of Presi
dent Lincoln exist but to a very limited
extent. However, to . guard against a
possible disturbance, ample measures
have been taken to preserve the peace,
Last week a large number of Republi.
can members of Congress, from New
England, the Middle States, 'and the
West, united in a strong recommenda
tion to Mr. Lincoln to appoint Mr. Col
ifai, of Indiana, Postmaster-General.
The demandsof Colonel Rayne, the
Commissioner from South Carolina, have
been materially modified, at the request
9 r the Southern members of Congress,
who insist upon it that South Carolina
shall not proceed with further acts of
hostility, expecting thereby to receive
the countenance and support of her sister
States.
It is stated in Republican circles, that
Congressmen Morehead and Kellogg are
to meet Thurlow 'Weed and a Mr. Sweet
of Illinois, to-morrow, at Crestline, Ohio,
to take counsel as to the designation of
Senator Cameron for a Cabinet position
under Lincoln.
It is stated that Fort Sumter is not to
be attacked, because Mr. Jefferson Davis
expressed the opinion that it cannot be
taken by war troops without immense
slaughter if at all. The Government
has no information that Maj. Anderson
gets market supplies, but Col. Rayne,
the S. C. Commissioner here, so states.
This latter gentleman has made no writ
ten communication to the President con
cerning South Carolina affairs.
Senator Yulee, after leaving the Union
on Tuesday last, called at the Post Office
Department for the purpose of ascertain
ing what the order of the acting Post : .
master General meant directing all let
ters sent to Pensacola should be sent to
the Dead-letter Office. Mr. King, the
polite head of the Department, received
him with dignity, but told him with
brevity that he could have no communi
cation with him, and declined to show
him ary of the papers. .You will remem
ber that this is the method suggested by
the gallant Holt for the purpose of giving
the Florida Disnnionists a dose of their
own medicine.
The Navy Department has received
the resignation of Commander Farrand,
who was attached to the Pensacola navy
yard, and among those who, in the name
of Florida, demanded its surrender; and
also that of Lieutedant Renshaw, who
gave orders to haul down the flag of the
Union. These resignations were accept
ed before it was known to the depart
ment what part they had acted in this
proceeding.
Mr. Holt has received no answer from
Gov., Pickens to his letter, demanding
that Maj. Anderson's letters shall be
promptly delivered to him, or, that postal
facilities will be withdrawn from Charles
ton, and perhaps the entire State of
South Carolina. Information has been
received, however, that his mail matter
is sent to Fort Johnson daily, where
Major Anderecn'a messenger may re
ceive it.
Can anything be meaner than the con
duct of the late members of Congress
from South Carolina, who drew their pay
up to the 4th of March next, stated that
they had resigned their seats, and still
exercise the franking privilege ? If that
is not the smillest, dirtiest, most "chiv
alric" swindling, we don't know what
would be.
Bailey, the South Carolinian who stolo
the Indian securities at Washington, is
one of the Clerks who gave notice that
he wouldn't serve under Lincoln ! It is
alleged that some of the funds thus ab
stracted are used in the Secession move
ment.,
Hon. Albert Pike, of Arkansas, poe
and politician. is in the city of Wash
ington. He is a staunch Union man.
Lieutenant Eggleston, who was at
tached to the United States steamer
Wyandotte, has also forwarded his resig
nation, which has been accepted.
The Hon. Reuben Davis, one of the
seceding members, who has formally left
the halls of Congress, and resides now in
Mississippi, does not disdain to use still
the franking privilege of the United
States House of Representatives.
The story That Mr. Lincoln is coming

Philadelphia Letter
rITILADELPIILI., Jan. 23, IS6I
Mr. Editor :—The state of affairs in
this city is promising ; trade is begin
ning to look up ; at the first blast of se
cession, many factories cut down their
time one-half, others discharged all their
hands; now they are improving.
A vast amount of Union-saving has
been done by the "best blood," who are
interested in slaves, in various parts of
the South ; the people of the interior
cannot imagine the extent, to which the
"first families" are involved in Slave
property; of course it is not interest,
which prompts the self-sacrificing efforts,
nor could the heavy tax imposed on
slaves have exerted any influence ; of
course it was Patriotism, that prompted
the Union Meetings.
The natives of Marylead residing in
this city have formed an association "to
draw into closer fellowship natives of
Maryland residing in Philadelphia, and
to extend a helping hand to any distres
sed Marylanders who may prOperly apply
for assistance."
Our theatres are doing very well,

PROPOSITION PROM SENATOR DOUGLAS ;
It is understood that Senator Douglas
proposes to introduce to the Senate a
'compromise proposition some day this
week. This proposition is a simple re
affirmation of the principles laid down
in the Comprbmise Measures of 1850.
In the plan it is not proposed to re-affirm
the principles of the Kansas-Nebraska
bill, to which the Republicans object,
bilt simply organize the Territories upon
the doctrine of the Compromise Mea
sures of 1850. The suggestion that the
President of the United States shall be
elected for six instead of four years, and
that hereafter all district Presidential
electors shall be elected as Representa
tives in Congress are, will be received
with favor. The African slave trade is
forever suppressed ; the elected franchise
is not to be exercised by persons of the
African race, in whole or in part; the
colonization of free negroes and mulat
toes is to be encouraged at the expense
'of'the Federal Treasury; fugitives from
service or labor rescued from the hands
of the officers aro to be compensated out
of the Federal Treasury or State or
county in which they have so been res
cued.
CRITTENDEN FOR FORCE IF NECESSARY.
—During the debate on the nomination
of Secretary Holt, Mr. Crittenden is said
'to have taken the ground that, as Ken
tucky is now a Central State; enjoying
all the prosperity consequent upon the
present Union and form of Government,
she never would consent to its breaking
up and the formation of a Southern Con
federacy, of which she would be a Border
State, exposed to all the dangers and
losses of such a position. He was much
affected during his remarks, and the man
ner in which he upbraided the Southern
men who defeated his compromise in the
Senate was very severe. He took the
position that the Union must be preserved
at all hazards, either by peaceable means
or by force, and that force used against
the lawless citizens of a Government is
not coercion of . a State. • The speech,
being entirely unexpected, created a
great sensation among.the Senator.
STOPPED.—The Montour Iton works,
at Danville, Pa., have suspended oper
tions, thus throwing out of employment
several hundred hands in mid-winter,—
The Intelligencer says, in consequence
of the hard times, the company proposed
a reduction of wages, which the work
men refused to accede to, and hence the
stoppaie.
How TRUE !—The Hon. Ding S. Dick
inson says that the destruction of the
American Union would be a second fall
to man, more sinful than the first, be
cause without temptation, and more fatal
because beyond the prospect of redemp
tion.
a• The people of Jamaica have made
up a sum of money sufficient to give Gen.
Garibaldi a handsome testimonial in sil
ver.
lEir A machine has been invented in
England, - which, being attached to the
stern of a ship, pumps her out with a ra
pidity in proportion to her speed.
eir The Buffalo Express says it is fast
becoming fashionable in that city for la
dies to wear the Balmoral without any
dress over it.
Or Tho- cost of the Crimean war is
said to have been $250,000,000.
ra—The Fire Department of Baltimore,
last year cost $50,783.
Gov. HICKS AND ins UNION : This
patriotic and Union-loving Governor sta
ted to a committee appointed to wait on
him and urge him to convene the Legis
lature, that from information which
was derived from sources not accessible
to the people of the State, he was con
vinced that the Legislature, if convened,
would at once declare in favor of the
Southern States, and send as ambassa
dors to those States, gentlemen who
have been prominent in urging the call
of the Legislature. That immediately
on this declaration being made the city
of Washington would be taken by a body
of 8,000 men now organized for that pur
pose. That civil war would be caused
by this step, and would thus be brought
by convening the Legislature. That the
existing militia law is sufficient for the
defense of the State at this time, and
there are now more arms ready for de
livery than the people seem disposed to
apply for.
That a majority of the people of the
Cotton' States do not want their consti
tutional rights secured within the Union,
but prefer a dissolution; and are coer
cing the minority into a compliance with
their views. That they are endeavoring
to compel Maryland to join them in or
der to Secure the possession of the Dis
trict of Columbia. That the interests of
the Cotton States are different from ours,
and ours would be sacrificed for the ben
efit of theirs. • That our interests are
identical with those of the border States,
and after ascertaining what they intend
to do, we should act in concert with
them. That the beg mode to effect such
co-operation is by correspondence be
tween the Gov6rnors of these States, in
which he is now and has been for some
time engaged. That he is satisfied Mr.
Lincoln will not attempt coercion, and
thinks that we ought to wait until a
reasonable time after his inauguration
to see whether the personal liberty laws
will be repealed by the Northern States.
That if this should not be done he would
then be in favor of a separation from
those States, but not of a union with the
Cotton States. - That he preferred a cen
tral Confederacy confined to the border
slaveholding States.
The committee adds that the Govern.
or declared that the people had the right
to call a State convention, and should
do so if they deemed it necessary.
erThe Harrisburg Telegraph of Mon
day last, in speaking of the reception of
the so-called Pennsylvania Commission
ers to Maryland, says the truth of the
old adage that "a man must go away
from home to find news from his neigh
borhood" is manifest in the above report.
Governor Curtin has no authority to ap
point, nor did he appoint, commissioners
to visit the Governor of Maryland, On
any subject. If gentlemen from this
State really visited Governor Hicks,
they must have done so as private citi
zens, solely on their own responsibility.
The Legislature passed no law providing
for the appointment of any one, and there
is none on the statue book empowering
the Governor to do so, of his own accord.
We assure our Southern friends that
Pennsylvania has no desire whatever to
interfere with their affairs, and we ask of
them similar friendship. Maryland needs
no commissioners from Pennsylvania;
her people are loyal to the Union, and
will do their utmost to keep us "one and
inseparable, now and forever."
Cr The Baltimore Patriot has receiv
ed a letter stating that men are patroll

Grace to near the Pennsylvania line, ev
ery hour, day and night. Each mau has
one MiiQ to walk back and forth, and the
report is, that these patrols are under
the appointment of the Governor, 're
ceiving $2 50 per day. The writer of
the letter, as well as the Patriot, wants
to know what this means.
Cr Death has at last ended the long
sufferings of William IV of Prussia.—
He was born the 15th of October, 1795,
and ascended the throne the 7th of June,

has, indeed, for years had the direction
of the affairs of the Government.

without number, might be given from ladies

united testimony none could resist, that Prof.

and
will restore the bald
and gray, and preserve the hair of the youth to
old age,
in all its youthful beauty.
Battle Creek, Mich., Dec. 21st, 1855.
PROF. WOOD : Thee watt please accept a
line to inform thee that the hair on my head all
fell off over twenty years ago, caused by a com
plicated chronic disease, attended with an erup
tion ou the head. A coatin ual course of suffer
ing through life having reduced me to a state of
dependence, I have not been able to obtain
stuff for raps, neither have I been able to do
them up, in consequence of which my head has
sulfeied extremely from cold. This induced
me to pay Briggs &. Hodges silniost the last cent
I had on earth for a two dollar bottle of thy
Bair Restorative about the first of August last.
I have faithfully followed the directions and
the bald spot is now covered with hair thick
and black, though short, it is also coming in all
over my head. Feeling confident that another
large bottle would restore it entirely and per
manently, I feel anxious to persevere in itsusc,
and being destitute of means to purchase any
more, I would ask thee if thee wooldst not be
willing to send r:e an order on thine agents fur
bottle, and receive to thyself the scripture
declaration—' , the reward is to those who are
kind to the widow and the fatherless."

Ligonier Noble Co., Indiana, Feb. 5, I&5 9
Pear. 0. J. Worn: Dear Sir :—ln the latter
part of the year 1552, while attending the Slate
and National Law School of the State of New
York, my hair, from a cause unknown to me,
commenced failing off very rapidly, so that in
the short space of six months the whole upper
part of my scalp was almost entirely bereft at
its covering, and much of the re:nainiug out
line upon the side and back part of my head
shortly after became gray, so that you will nut
be surprised when I tell you that upon my re
turn to the State of Indiana, my meye casual
acquaintances were not so much at a Mai to
discover the cause of the change in my appear
ance, as my more intimate acquaintances were
to recognise me at all.
I at once made application to the most skill
ful physician in the country, but, receiving no
assurance from them that my hair could again
be restored, I was forced to' become reconciled
to my fate, until, fortunately, in the latter putt
of the year 1537, y our Restorative was recom
mended to me by a druggist, as being the most
reliable Hair Restorative in use. I tried one
bottle, and found to my great satisfaction that
it was producing tht desired effect. Since that
time, I have used seven dollars' worth of your
Restorative, and as a result, have a rich coat of

COMMENDATIONS :
From Han. Lewis 1). Campbell, M. C., Ohio..
My family and friends all concurin the opin
ion that the (Newell) Picture is more life-like
than anything they ever. saw. My likeness
has been repeatedly taken by artists in various
ways, but 1 have never yet had one which pre
sents so true to nature, all the features and ex
pressions of countenance as this.
From. Hon. E. Joy Morris, late Minister to
[Eow: J. ZAMI
Italy.
The exquisite finish, beauty And , softness of
your portraits, conjoined with their , durability
of color and faithfulness as likenesses, cannot
fail to commend them to the attention and pa
tronage of all who appreciate true art.

Having occasion for a portrait, I procured
one from Mr. Robert Newell, of the city of
Philadelphia, a miniature in Oil Colors, wider
the new process discovered by him, and take
great pleasure in expressing the satisfaction giv
en me, not only by the accuracy of the likeness,
'but its artistic finish in all respects, and recoil},
mend him to the patronage of those disposed to
encourage the beautiful art.
