Bowling Green. ——— ......Our levee yesterday morning presented a more lively appearance than we have witnessed for many days. Several boats were receiving and discharging freight at the same time, and the levee was thronged with produce awaiting shipment. ......The River was rising during the day and is now very nearly bank full. The weather was warm, clear, and delightful, though very unseasonable. ......The clipper packet Charley Bowen will be at the landing this morning. She receipts for freight through to New Orleans at the regular rates. Passengers will find the Bowen to be a first class steamer in all that makes traveling pleasant. Capt. Dexter is an old and experienced commander, and he is assisted by accommodating clerks. ......The Bracelet having taken the place of the "big" Grey Eagle, will be at the landing this evening with shingle out for Louisville. The Bracelet is a substantial little boat, with affable officers. ......The huge Clara Dolsen arrived on Sunday night. She had a large crew busily at work all night, stowing freight away. Yesterday, too, all day long a stream of freight kept pouring into the huge leviathan, and yet at night she looked as though she could easily dispose of as much more. ......The Jacob Musselman arrived Sunday night with an excellent trip. She brought out of the Wabash country 175 bales hay, 460 bbls flour, 500 bags bran, 150 bbls pork, 200 bags corn, 400 kegs lard. Most of her cargo was reshipped on the Clara Dolsen. ......The Grey Eagle was at the landing yesterday morning on her way to New Orleans. We are sorry to lose her from the Louisville trade, but was glad to see her have so good a load to New Orleans. ......The West Wind and High Flyer were torn from their lines at Shippingport, yesterday, by the high wind that prevailed, and started up the Falls together ou their own hook, having neither pilots nor crew on board. The wind, however, was not quite strong enough to make them stem the current of the Falls, and they drifted over to the "Canada" shore. The job boat Charley Miller went to their assistance, and a crew placed on the West Wind when she soon got steam up and came to the wharf. <Lou Cour>. ......FOOD FOR SOUTH CAROLINA.—The huge Aleck Scott, on her way up the river from New Orleans, discharged at Memphis the other day 500 kegs of powder for poor suffering South Carolina's use. If our Northern Abolitiou "brethren,"' or their orders elsewhere—those who are circulating reports that the people of Charleston are starving, are taxed $16 per head on their aiders, and compelled to pay 35 cents per pound for beef, &c.—will make a trip down there, we venture to say they will be welcome to as much powder food as they can stomach, and a " little more grape " free gratis.—<Lou.

NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. BY THE E. & W. LINE.

Exclusively fjthejunial. COMGRKSSIOaiAL,. Washington, Jan. 21. Sksatk. Mr. Clay charged the Republicans as being the authors of the troubles which caused seces sion, and the Republican platform has declared war against the lives and institutions of the South Mr. Fitzpatrick endorsed his colleague's remarks. Mr. Davis stated that the separation of Mississippi terminated his functions here. In parting he said he felt no hostility towards any Senator and hoped that relations between them might be peaceful though we mii3t part. If he had oilended he would now otfer an npology, and all reparation for such offense. As the Senators from Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi left, all the Democratic Senators crowded about them shaking hands, Messrs. Hale and Cameron being the only Republicans doing so. On motion of Mr. Seward, the Kansas bill was taken up. Mr. Green withdrew his amendment creating Jefferson territory. Mr. Fitch again offered an amendment ia regard to the judiciary. air. Douglas opposed any amendment. Mr. Seward said it was contrary to all custom to introduce this custom. Mr. Fitch's amendment was agreed to 29 to 23. The Kansas bill wa3 then read a third time and passed yeas 3C, nays 16. The Crittenden resolutions were taken up. Mr. Biglr spoke at considerable length in favor of their passage and argued the ne cessity and propriety of a Convention of the pt-ople to adopt amenamenis w me Constitution. He urged the Republican Senators to consider the necessity of the passage of these or similar resolutions. He appealed to the South to consider if its rights could not be obtained in the Union. He opposed secession, but did not see how they could coerce a State. Coercion was delusion. Mr. Cameron would not make a speech. Though his colleague offered the olive branch, the other side would not listen or respond. He was inclined to do all he could to save the Union. Mr. Green said the well known patriotism of the Senator from Pennsylvania precluded the necessity of watching him, but the other side could not bear the words of patriotism. Mr. Cameron was sorry that the Senators who left would not wait until they heard lrom Pennsylvania. Mr. Iverson asked if Cameron approved of Bigler's speech. Mr. Cameron. Very much and will vote for hi3 proposition if it will save the country. Mr. Saulsbury thought that Mr. Cameron's devotion to the country m ight well be imitated. Mr. Cameron. I say to Senators from Georgia and Alabama, if they will take my colleague's proposition we will pass it. Mr. Iverson asked if be approved of the sentiments of his colleague against coercion. That's the point. Air. Cameron. Coercion is the last remedy. Mr. Green. Is it a remedy at all. Mr. Cameron It is a bad remedy. I don't know that we shall even resort to it. It is certainly a last remedy. Mr. Mason referred to the fact that the Senator voted against the Crittenden resolutions and for the amendment of the Senator from New Hampshire. He also said that Mr. Wade presented resolutions from Ohio, oue of which was against the personal liberty bill, while the Ohio Legislature refused to repeal that bill. He wanted to show the people the difference between professions here and practice there. Mr. Cameron said, Mr. Mason Beemed anxious lor an excuse for leaving the Union. He had voted as he did because he saw no disposition to compromise on the other side, unless he went on lienued knee and asked forgiveness. He should ask for no forgiveness because he had done no wrong. But he was still willing to forgive the backslid ing South. He would do all he could to preserve the Union but was not to dragoon ed or driven. Mr. Mason was unconscious of saying aueht to arouse the wrath of Mr. Cameron. He did not want an excuse to leave, but did want an excuse to remain in the Union. Six senatorial chairs were vacated to-day, aud the Union was practically dissolved. What is the remedy ? Coercion. Would you use the discipline of the pedagogue? Would to God the senator trom .Pennsylva nia would give me an excuse to stay in the Union. Mr. Cameron had not beard of any threats of war, but if it must come, Pennsylvania is ready to meet it. The people of his State are ready for anything honorable to save the Union, and are ready to yield all prejudices. The North has done no wrong, and bullying cannot drive them. If you want the Union preserved, let us know what is wrong, aud we will redress. Mr. Saulsbury believed the Senator sin cere, and though five States had gone, he thought that if this side would meet the Senator with the same spirit, the Union would still remain. Mr. Crittenden urged the importance of the measure, and spoke against the postponement. The Senate adjourned. Washington, Jan. 20. This city i3 now more free from excitement than it has been at any time since the session of Congress. Apprehensions of difficulty attending the inauguration of President Lincoln exist, but to a limited extent. However, to guard against possible disturbances, ample measures have been taken to preserve the public pence. . With the probable action thi3 week the secession movement will be retarded as to Southern States. A company of sappers and miners from West Point, acting as infantry, arrived here to-day and are quartered at the Columbian armory. Last week a large number of Republican members of Congress from New England, the Middle States and the West, united in a strong recommendation to Mr. Lincoln to appoint Colfax of Indiana as Postmaster General. Bailey, connected with the abstraction of the Indian trust bonds, has been released from Prison on 5,000 dollars bail. He will appear before a special committee. St. Louis, Jan. 21. A special dispatch from Springfield to the Republican says that Congressman Kellogg arrived there on Saturday night nnd is in conference with Lincoln. His object is supposed to be in reference to a compromise of the national difficulties. St. Louis, Jan. 18. The reported seizure of a large quantity of powder by the authorities at Xew Orleans, belonging to St. Louis merchants, is untrue. The powder has not reached that port. It is understood that the Governor of Louisiana has proposed to purchase the powder on its arrival.

Washington, Jan. 21, The following is

the letter of the Alabama delegr.tiou in Congress anuouueiug their withdrawal: Washington, Jan. 2 1st, lfctil. Hon. Win. Pennington, Speaker of House 0 Representatives: Sin: Having received luformation that the State of Alabama through a Convention representing her sovereignty had adopted and ratified an ordinance by which she withdraws from the Union of the United Statc3 of America, and resumes the powers heretofore delegated to the Federal Government, it is proper that we should communicate the same to you aud through you to tho House of Representatives over which you preside, and announce our withdrawal from the further deliberations of that body. The ause3 which, in the judgment of our State, render such action necessary, we need not relate. It is sufficient to say that duty requires our obedience to our sovereign, and we shall return to our homes, sustain her actions, and share the fortunes of our people. We have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servants. (Signed), Geo. S. Houston, Snydenhan Moore, David Clopton, James L. Pugh, J. L. M. Curry, James A. Stalhvorth.
