This statement is founded upon committees to wait on the President, &c. Good feeling is said to have prevailed on all hands. On Tuesday, the sece»siou portion of the Messag^ was referred by the Speaker to a Committee of one from each Slate. In the Senate its reading was followed by a speech trotii Mr. Clingman complaining of it and in favor of disunion. Mr Crittendeu replied. The Message is attacked by extremists and defended by conservatives of all parties.

'it would be a useless repetition to do more than refer, ^iih oftrnesi commendation, to my former recommenda- tioni i“ favor of th» Paoitic railroad—of the grant of power to the President to employ the naval force in the Tieiiiity- for the protection of the lives and property of j,ur t’eilow citizens, against sudden and lawle.ss out- bieiks iinJ depredations; and also to protect >nierican merchant vessels, their crews and cargoes, against vio lent ao'l unlawful seiiure and confiscation in the ports jjf Mexico and the South American republics, when these Q)iv be in a disturbed and revolutionary condition. It mv settled conviction, that without such a power we io not afford that protection to those engaged in the com merce of the country which they have a right to demand. Electios of .Members of Cosgrbss.—I again re- conmiend to Congress the passage of a law in pursuance of I he provisions of the Constitution, appointing a day certain, previous to the 4th March, in each year of an odd number, for the election of representatives through out m11 the St.'Hles. A similar power has already been exercised, with general approbation, in the appointment General Assbmbly.—The Message necessarily ex cludes the usual summary of Legislative proceedings, which contains nothing of importance—mere matters of private interest, which we will bring up in our next. i esterday. Mr. Courts wa.s elected Treasurer; and a resolution was pending to send commissioners to the S. C. (’onvention. Thk County Mkktisq.—The meeting on Tuesday last was probably the largest county meeting ever held here. The resolutions adopted embody the sentiments of the moderate men of both parties—of those who de sire to preserve the Union if that can be done consistent, ly with justice and honor.

The meeting. i was then forced to consider the best remedy for this omission, and an immediate call of the present Congress was the natural resort. Upon enquiry, however, 1 as- cert.iined that 15 out of the 33 States compusing the Confederacy were without representatives, and that, consequently, these fiftefn States would be disfranchised by such a call. These fifteen Slates will be in the same condition on the 4th March next. Ten of them can not elect representatives, according to existing State laws, until different periods, extending from the be ginning of August next until the months of October »nd November. In my laat message I gave warning that, in a lime of >\idden and alarming danger, the salvation of our insti- •..luons might depend upon the power of the President vjaediately to assemble a full Congress, to meet the esf-’gency. r.-^RiFr.—It is now quite evident that the financial necessities of the gov't will require a modification of :iie tarifl during your present session, for the purpose of increa«ing the rerenee. In this aspect, 1 desire to reiterate the recommendation contained in my last two annual messages, in favor of imposing specific instead of ad valorerri duties on all imported articles to which can be properly applied. From long observation tod experience I am convinced that specific duties, are necessary, both to protect the revenue and to secure to our manufacturing interests that amount of incidental encouragement which unavoidably results from a reve nue tariff. Aj an atistract proposition It nmy l>e ndinitteil that ad yaloreio duties would, in theory. l>e the most just and equal. But if the ei perience of ihit and of all other commercial nations has demon- >trst«d that such dniies cannot be K»se'»ed and collected withtiut jreai frauds upon the revenue, then it is the part ol w isdom to re- ••Tt Ui »[>eci6c duties. InUead. from the very imiure of »n ad vhIiv ivin duty, this n>usi be the resnit I'nderit the inevitable const iiuence is, that fureisn goods will be autered at leas iti«n their irae . ilu« The treasury will, Ilieref ire.

His object is to p>uu his giM>tls through the tuiMiii h'Bse Ht the very lowest valuation necevwiry to s».vc them iroai ciintiscatioa.

At an adjourned meeting of the citizens of Cumberland county, held at the Court House in the town of Fayetteville, the following proceed ings wsre had: Alex. Johnson, Sr., as Chairman, having expressed a desire no longer to serve the meeting in that capacity, on motion of D. G. Mc Rae, Esq., a committee of five was appointed to report permanent officers for the Convention, which committee consisted of the following per sons, to-wit: D. (jr. McRae, Jas. VV'. Strange, Wm. McL. McKay, David Murphy and Neill McDugald, who after consultation reported the following as permanent ofTicert? of the same: Hon. Jess* G. Shepherd, President; Dan’l McDiarmid and Joel Williams, Vice Pres’ts; Jas. C. Dobbin and J. A. Pemberton, Secretaries. The Convention was then duly organized. The first business before the Convention being an nounced as the report of a Committee appointed at a former meeting, it was moved by .M. J. McDuffie, that by reason of informality in the ap pointment of said Committee the same be dis charged, and that the President do now appoint a committee consi.'^ting of one from each Captain’s District to draft resolutions for the action of the Convention; which motion being carriecJ, the President appointed the following gentlemen to compo8« said committee: B. H Huske, Peter Munroe, Duncan Murchi son, Neill McDugald, Alex. R. Smith, Wm. G. McDonald, Wm. Cade, David Murphy, Wm. Alderman, Jas. W. Strange, B. W. Robinson, Charles 1). Nixon. On motion ot .Maj. Jno. H. Cook, th«* (’ourt Hoii.se being insufficient to accommodate the Con vention, it was adjourned to meet forthwith at Farmers’ Hall. The Resolutions of sundry District meetings having been offered, were, on motion, laid on the table. It being announced that the committee apptiiuted to draft resolutions were ready to report, it was moved and carried that the report be received. The Committee, through their Chairman, li. R. Huske, reported the following Preamble ami Resolutions: though pervaded by a deep feeling, was in the main order ly, owing doubtless in a great meaaure lo the urbanity and familiarity with the duties of the chair, of the presiding officer, lion .1. G. .''hepheni, and to the confidence re posed in him by both parlies. UouKsos CoiNTT Union Mekti.so.—We have re ceived a verbal message frotu a friend in Kobeson coun ty in regard to the publication of the proceedings of the late citizens’ meeting in that county. We would cheerfully have published the proceedings if they had been sent to us; but they have not come to band. PiBLic Mf.ktisos.—Our exchange papers furnish the particulars of numerous meetings in this State on the present condition of the country. That in Raleigh on Saturday evening was addressed by Henry W. Miller and Hon. Z. B. Vance. The resolu tions, introduced by W. \V. Holden, Esq. as chairman of a committee, are conservative. At Charlotte, the resolutions, by Gen. Voung, chair man. recommend a Stafe Convention, for the purpose, [irimarily, of preserving the Union, if practicable; and •econdarily, if not practicable, to i>Jopf measure.s for the protection of our rights. SECTIONAL TROUBLES. Milledgeville, Dec. 1.—Mr. Sprayberry in the House to-day moved an amendment to the retaliatory bill as follows: And, whereas, a compact broken by one party is no longer binding politically, socially, lesrally, or morally, upon the other parties to it; And, whereas, in the opinion of this General Assembly, the States enumerated in tlie bill have grossly violated the compact of I’nion by refusing to deliver up fugitives; he it ennctf.d, That the State of Georgia with draw its confederated faith from all the States which interpose obstacles to the recovery of our rights under the Constitution. And it is hereby further enacted and declared, that all officers of this State, civil and military, who have taken an oath to support the Constitu tion ol’the United States, are hereby relieved and absolved Irom the obligations of such oaths in all cases in the courts of this .State where States oi the citizen.s of States who refuse our Constitution al rights arc parties, or are otherwise concerned. M r. Sprayberry’s amendment was lost—ayes 36, nays 89. The retaliatory bill pas.sed the House. Tallah.\sske, Fla., Dec. 2.—The Legislature has unanimously pas,sed the Convention bill. The Convention is to meet on the 8d of January. MiLLEDfJKViLLE, Dcc. 2,—The bank bill au thorizes the su.pension of specie payments, and suspends the legal collection of all debts till De cember, Auoust.a., I)eo. 1.—It is understood in Bank circles that all the banks of this city will suspend on Monday. F'rom Boston—A John Brown meetng was calleil by abolitionists on Monday last at the Ma sonic Temple. The Temple was taken possession of by the Union men, who pa'ised resolutions de nouncing John Brown, justilying his execution, and lauding \'irginia lor the act. Fred Douglas, Redpath, Frank Sanborn, and other well known Abolitionists, vainly endeavored to be heard. Se.s’sibli: Cosi'LL'sioNs.—The Charlotte Democrat, replying to some intimations that it is not strong enough in favor of secession, concludes as follows:— ‘•If any one expects us to advise immediate secession, without deliberation and without the co-operation of the .Southern States, he will certainly be iisappointed. And if any one expects us to show our dciotion to Southern rights by threats and menaces, he, too, will be disap pointed. As a native and citizen of North Carolina, we j expect to abide by the decision of a Convention of her j people, whether it is in accordance with our notions of : right or not. But what that Cot'vention ought to do, ' we shall, at present, leave to older and wiser heads to i s*y. If a Convention says North Carolina should with draw from the Union immediately, we are ready; if it says wait, we are for waiting. We intend to take thing* coolly anyhow, though we are anxious iLat such a cour»e shall We pursued as will unite the South in action.” Pkk»o.n.\l Libkktv Bills.—The Legitlature of V er- mont rejected a bill to repeal the “Personal Liberty act ’ of that State, by a vote of I-S to 58. The act was passed in 1k43, seven years before the passage of the fugitive slave law in 1850, and of course without any reference to it. This decision is deeply to be deplored and complained of; but there are two encouraging signs connected with it, 1st, that 2.5 Republicans voted for the repeal, showing that there is an awakening even in that party; and 2dly, that a committee was afterwards appointed to inquire whether the law was unconstitu tional, with a view to its repeal, if so, at the next session. Bbooks and Sr.'H.NBR.—It may be doubted if the country will for many years feel the last of the evils resu ting from the attack of Brooks upon Sumner in the Senate chamber. One of those effects, of a notable character, is stated in a late Boston Traveller, viz: that a bill to repeal the .Masrachuselt8 “personal liberty bill” was before the Legislature of that State and had passed one branch by a majority of 15 votes, when the news of Brooks’s a.ssault arrived and produced such indigna tion that the bill to repeal was rejecte'i. But for that attack, Massachusetts would have repealed the oflen- sive and unconstitutional law, (as she ought to have done in spite of it,) and probably the other States would have followed her example, and the country might never have arrived at that deplorable state of enmity that now exists. We have no doubt, also, that Lincoln’s election is directly traceable to that assault, for it alone made half a million of Republicans—so a friend at the North assured us last Summer. Wherras: The recent election has resulted in ihe success of a sectional {inrt}' wliose past history i8 writ ten in a determined and persistent aggression up'in the interests of the South, and whose avou-eJ policy is to tally inconsistent with the preserva’ion of our most sacred rights obtained by force of .'iriiis an't s ilemnlv guarantied to iis by ii Coiistitutioii, biii iing alike upon the whole country: Therefore, be it Resolved, That I he eleciion of .\tiraham Lincoln, the candidati' of this party, to the Presidency of the I'nited Slates, should be productive of serious consideration and iinceasing vigilance upon the part of thu South, and although not in itself cause for the dis solution of the Union, yel any attempt upon his part to carry out the policy of his party, will meet with our most determined resistance. Resolved, That while the Union of these .States is dear to 118 a.s a heritage bequeathed us by our forefathers, dear to us by every tie wiiich can bind a jieople to a government, best for us as a nation, and to mankind as an exauiple, so long as its terms are faithfully adhered to; yet that our lives, our liberties, and our honor are dearer to us, and for the proservation of these we must, if the direful necessity be forced upon us, surrender our adherence to it. Resolved. That hoping and believing that a portion of our fellow-ciiiiens of the Northern States love the Union as well as ourselves and are not lost to all sense of justice and humanity, we are willing to make every appeal to their good sense and patrioti>.m to remove the causes ofour past diflerences and present disturbances; but that we are not willing that the jiresent crisis sliall fiass away without a perfect understanding as to what we are to expect in future, and a definite seitletnent of the whole slavery" question. H«so’ved, That we rcconimend to the Legislature of North rarolina, the calling of a State Convention to take into consideration our entire Federal Kebtiions, at as early a day as practicable. A minority report of Wm. Cade and Charles D. Nixon was offered and received, as follows: Whkrkas, The present state of the country demamlx expression of public opinion, and it being a privilege guaranteed under the Bill of Rights, and consecrated i in the Revolutionary struggle, for any portion of the people to meet together and express their sentiments I and consult for the common good.

It was moved by Neill McKay, that the min ority report be received as a substitute for the report of the committee; which motion was not agreed to. It was then moved that the report of the com mittee be adopted. Pending this motion Neill Mc Kay offered the following Resolution as an amend ment to the same, which was agreed to; Resolved, That we recomtuen'l a re-organiza'Jon of the Militia, and the formation of volunteer corps with a sufficient appropriation for arms and e(juipmfnts, if in • he opinion of the Legislature the same is necessary. The report of the comn*ittec as thus amended, after sundry motions to further amend the same, which were voted down, was adopted. On motion of D. (j. McKae, Estj., the meeting Lincoln's Administration.—A letter from a Democri'tic gentleman ot Springfield to a friend ill Virginia as.«ures him in the most earne.st man ner that the South has nothing to fear from the administration of Lincoln. lie says that he knows Jiincoln well, and as a friend of the South and a friend of the country, he feels it his duty to express the tirin conviction that Lincoln’s ad ministration will be national, patriotic, and give no just cause of offence to any section. The Springfield writer is a gentL*man of the highest personal character, and a life-1 jng Democrat Bdltiuiurt American. Tlbned Adriit.—The N. Y.

Besides whioh there are 85 from foreign countriea. .^’'ot for Sale.—A subscriber residing in the .State of North Carolina writes to us, under date of the 2tjth ultimo, that he observed in one of the papers of the day a rumor to the effect that Mr Oorwin, of Ohio, is negotiating with the pro prietors of the National Intelligencer for the pur chase of that venerable journal, with the intention of converting it into the organ ot Mr. Lincoln. Our correspondent, apparently thinking the state ment “important if true,” tiesires to be authenti cally informed in the premises, and further re quests that we will “defitie our position.” I'rotesting again.st the amenability to which our correspondent .seems to hold us, in calling for any notice at our hands of the idle rumors daily writ ten or telegraphed from this city to the “sensation press” at the North to excite a momentary interest and then be forgotten, we beg to say, for his per- .sonal satisfaction, that the paragraph he refers to has no foundation whatever. Mr. Corwin has never intimated to us any such purpose, and, we ; are confident, never eiitert;uned any such; and, to prevent any misconception.on the subject, we may as well add that the National Intelligencer will never pass from the control of its present proprie tors into any other hands while life and heal'h last—unless, indeed, sharing in the common ruin in which unhappily political events now threaten to involve all the interests of this great country, the Intelligencer shall sink with the rest, and its property passthrough the bands of thesherifl s That day, we trust, is far distant. As to “defining our position,” we have been defining it during forty years, and any one who desires to know it may satisfy himself by ex amining the files of the paper for any year during tliat period, and learn what it is by what it has been. The principles of the paper have been the same under Presidents to whom it was opposed as under those whom it favored. Its principle* will remain under Mr. Lincoln’s administration what they have always been; the same that they have been under his prodecessoi^, and the same that they will be, we hope, under many of his suc cessors.—Xatiuual Intillijencer. adjourned.

We are not a diiloyal peopU, but w« have been deotiTeti." The Hug Trade.—At a rough estimate there has been about ten thousand hogs passt^d through this place. It is thought but few more will be driven. Compared with previous years the num ber is remarkably small. Exceeding one hundred thousand'have passed here annually, Itut the num ber has gradually diminished until as above inti mated, but few now pass this way. From obser vation, we are enabled to account for this. Large numbers now pass over the Tennessee and Virgi nia Railroads, and are baconed at Lynchburg and other markets. Kailroad facilities have al&o in duced the formation of companies in Tennessee and Kentucky who butcher very extensively. AaheviUe Spectator. We have received the prospectus of the “Ad Valorem Banner,” a new weekly paper about to be established in Raleigh by Frank L. Wilson Esq. An able writer in the Fayette (Mississippi^ Times argues as follows against the policy of se cession: “There is no wrong if we are united that we cannot remedy under the Constitution, and no right that it cannot protect. Our safety, our ex istence, now depends upon the integrity of that instrument. The moment we throw off the re straints of the Constitution, surrendering to the North our rights in the Territories, our interests in the public domain—in our courts, our navy and our army, and our Federal Treasury—that mo ment we are doomed to destruction. Secession can afford no palliation for our wrongs; it can only precipitate us into greater evils, as we must for feit all of our rights under the Constitution when we leave the Union and give to our Northern foes all they need to render their aggressive policy I more effeotiTf.” The American Flag.—At this juncture in otir national troubles, when the flag of the Union is being treated with contumely and thrown aside to give place to those that were used in the days of our colonial vassalage, the following extract tfom the speech of Mr. Poinsett, delivered at Charles ton, S. C., during the nullification excitement, will be perused with pleasure by all friends ot the Union: “Wherever I have been, I have been proud of being a citizen of this Republic, and to the remo test corners of the earth have walked erect and secure under that banner which our opjKinents would tear down and trample under foot. I was in Mexico when the town was taken by assault. The house of the American Ambassador was then, as it ought to be, the refuge of the distressed and persecuted; it was pointed out to the infuriated soldiery as a place filled with their enemies. They rushed to the attack. My only defence wa.s the fl:ig of iny country, and it was flang out at the in.staiit that hundreds of muskets were levelled at us. Mr. Mtwon (a braver man never stood by his Iriend in the hour of danger,) and myself placed ourselves beneath its waving folds, aud the attack was suspsnded. We did not blench, for we felt strong in the protecting arm of this mighty Republic. We told thum that the flag that waved over u.s was the banner of that nation to whose example they owed their liberties, and to whose protection they were indebted for their safety. The scene changed as by enchantment; those men who were on the point of attacking and massa- creing the inhabitants, cheered the flag of our country and placed sentinels to protect it from outrage. I'ellow-citizens, in such a moment as that would it have been "iny protection to me and mine to have proclaimed myself a Carolinian? Should J hate been here to tell you thin tale if I had hung out thf Palmetto anti Single Star? Be assured that, to be respected abroad, we must maintain our place in the Union.” MAKKIKU, .\t the residence of the bride’s father, on Tuesday evening, the 27th ult., by Itavid I>.

With but few exception, these discourses, in deal ing with the impending crisis, it is a pleasure to ay, breathe the true spirit of Christianity, and as uch, we may indulge the hope that they will do something to pour oil upon the troubled waters and help to calm the tearful agitation which is now shaking our beloved country to its centre. Mie of the most powerful, impressive and appro priate of these discourses, was delivered by Rev. I»r. Hawks, of Calvary Church, his theme being the perils which threaten the people, the Union and the government. It drew tears from many eyes, but was received with favor or otherwise as it harmoniaed with the views of his hearers. We felt every word he uttered to be not onlj’ solemn truth, but (rod's truth, especially when he traced step by step the causes of present public disaster, and laid these causes at .the doors of those whose prejudices, passions and partizanship have pro duced the threatened and almost certain dismem berment of the country. He did not believe the South to be without faults, nor altogether blame less in producing the present state of affairs. But he believed that she had great provocation, W.1S in earnest, sincere, and that the mass of her citizens were but demanding justice, fraternity and their Constitutional right. Justice and etjuali- ty in the Union would satisfy all her statesmen, and tlie majority of her people. But so long as there were inequality, crimination, and an ab sence of love, there could be no real unity. He hoped for the best, and thanked God heartily that there w^ere sij^ns of receding from the extreme positions which had been taken.—N. y. Expresi. KEVIEW t)F THE .MARKET.

The hen took a no tion to set. Mr. Church encouraged her in it to the extent of giving her sixteen eggs to com mence on. With commendable industry the hen went to work ‘"setting.” For one week she de voted herself to it without interruption. At the end of the week Mr. Tinker’s turkey came along that way, and crowding the hen off her nest, took the business of incubation under her own wings. Being more “on her muckle” than the hen, she maintained her position until a brood of chickens stepped out of the shell and peeped. The turkey then took the chickens in tow, and returned to her own anti Mr. Tinker’s residence. Mr Church brought an action of trover for the chick ens, claiming them on the ground that his hen laid the eggs and did the best part of the setting. Judgment was given for plaintiff to recover eight Qents apiece for the ohiok«ns. M'l Apply to W. G.
