SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2. 1861.
It is said that the "lobby" has al
most entirely deserted Harrisburg this
season, the political troubles not being
favorable to speculative undertakings.—
Some of the members of the Legislature
are sorely distrestied at this lamentable
condition of things; so unpromising to
their prospects. As the lobbyists do
not "go up," it is impossible that they
can "cone down," the two processes by
physical law and legislative experience
necessarily operating together.
sr" Bestor's Varieties," is the title of
a neat little Philadelphia monthly,varied
in: contents, as its name indicates, and is
full of entertainment. It is furnished at
the. ridiculously low rate of fifty cents a

dozen of "Bestor's Golden Pens."—
These pens, good metalic pens coated
with gold to prevent corrosion, are pro
nounced, a capital article. Either the
paper or the pens are amply worth the
price of subscription.

SECESSION is now said that
valuable improved fire-arms aro being
sold at Harper's Ferry for a mere trifle,
in obedience to an order which was given
by Secretary Floyd, several months ago,
ostensibly to sell a lot of old and unser
viceable arms. An agent of the War
Department has been despatched to in

Senator Bragg, of North Carolina, de
livered a brief address at Raleiglr on
January 25. He deprecated precipitate
action„ since he thought it would be
much better for North Carolina to re
main in the Union, and seek an honora
ble adjustment. While he despaired of
a settlement of our difficulties by-the
present Congress, he .was not without
hope that they would be adjusted, and
the Union preserved by the people of
the. States.
Hon. W. C. Rives has become a can
didate for the Virginia' State Conven
tion. In his letter accepting the nomi
nation, he warns those whom he addresses
that the hope of reconstructing the Union
is a fatal delusion. The present emer
gency is not sufficiently desperate, in his
opinion, to warrant a resort to such des
perate measures 'as those proposed by
the Secessionists. . •
Capt. Ingraham, who left the Mediter

to enter the service of the State in ques

Power and has no navy et her command.
A very sensible conclusion.
The marines at Fort Washington, on
the PotoMac, below Walhington, and

artillery from Fort Monroe. The move

The Legislature has agreed on the

therein.
The Senate adopted a resolution to
day authorizing the Governor to send
volunteers to the assistance of Florida
if needed, in case of a threatened inva
sion. The number of men is unlimited.
In Georgia there is a slight streak of
resistance to secession. In Pickens
county a Union meeting has been held
and the U. S. flag run up.
The South Carolina Legislature has
unanimously passed resolutions declining
to appoint commissioners in response to
the invitation of Virginia, as the State
has no desire to reconstruct the Union,
and has . no further interest in its Con
stitution. The seperation is declared
Texas is said to be arming in all di
rections; In nearly every county one
or more volunteer companies may be
found active. Governor Houston has
made great efforts to stem the tide of
secession, and failing in that seeks to
excite a counter passion for territorial
aggrandizement by directing attention
towards the helpless condition of Mexico.

A PARALLEt,.—The New York Times
says Antwerp had 200,000 inhabitants,
and was the most commercial and pros
perous city in the world-2500 merchant
vessels arriving there in a year, bringing
merchandise to the value of $133,000,000.
When the Noithern provences revolted
they took possession of the mouth of the
Scheldt, built forts on the sides and sunk
obstructions in the channel, to prevent
free navigation, in consequence of which
Antwerp was ruined, and the grass grey(
before the warehouses of those who had
been the greatest merchants in the world,
and her population was reduced to 60,
000. The obstructions were removed,
and, after centuries, her commerce be

000 f. in improving her harbor, and she
has now, perhaps, 90,000 people. Char

covered those sunken vessels, and have
lost two-thirds of her population and all
her commerce, who will provide the mil

Will she be able to raise it by selling

ifir The State of Massachusetts keeps
up the old custom of giving a dinner to
her Representatives annually, on the as
sembling of the Legislature. The knife
and-fork, performances follow a blue
light sermon, as in the olden time. This
year the State bought the dinner for its
Representatives at the Parker House, in
Boston—a splendid house, by the way.
Besides any quantity of eating, these
Massachusetts legislators did a " rather
tall amount " of drinking ! They swal
lowed 225 bottles of wine, worth from
$2 to $4 a bottle, (being about one bot
tle to each Representative present.)—
The State bought it—and its law-mak
ers drank it—the Maine law being in full
force when the liquor ran the law-mak
ers' throats. Does that need any com
ment?
gir The Springfield Correspondent of
the St. Louis Democrat says : Mr. Lin

islature of the State of Indiana, empow
ered to invite him to pass through their
capital city on his way to Washington.
He had previously received such an invi
tation from the Legislature of Ohio. He
will probably accept both. He holds
that an invitation coming from the Leg
islature of a State in their official capaci
ty carries with it too great an authority
to be disregarded. Although Mr. Lin
coln has not yet definitely decided upon
the time of his departure, or the exact
route of his progress, it is thought' that
the capital cities of Ohio, Indiana, New
York, Pennsylvania, and Maryland will
be honored by his presence.

then given a draft. on New York, which
was paid ; the Treasury Department re

told some wonderful stories of their ad

There is no truth in the statement
of the New York Herald, that Mr. Lin

Washington on the 11th of February.—
He will go by Lafayette to Indianapolis,
where be will receive the hospitalities of
the Indiana Legislature; thence he will
proceed, probably, by way of Cincinnati
to Columbus, Cleveland, Buffalo and Al

for Harrisburg direct, thence to Balti

to New York and Philadelphia, is not
impossible. Arrangements for special
trains all the way through are making.—
No military escort will be accepted.—
The entire journey is expected tó be
made inside of ten days. The Presiden

Lincoln's departure, under the protec
