that the Miittie Cook is the mail boat this evening for Rowling Green and m.ike their arrangements accordingly. The Mallie Cook is a substantial little steamer. The Charley Bowen lett SatRrdajr afternoon with a magnificent trip of freight. She had started down the river when, bearing the Bracelet's whistle, she returned, met that steamer, and received her Southern passengers anil freight without lauding, and then went on her way rejoicing. The Jacob Miisselnian did not leave Saturday, as advertised. She expected some freight to arrive, and postponed her departure nntil this morniDg. She is to go up the Wabash as f.vr as Terre Haute. The Bracelet arrived about 1 o'clock. Her passer.gers were transferred to the Charley Bowen, and she immediately returned to Louisville. It bothers the Bracelet a little to make the time. The Lue E tve3 was favored with a fine cargo of groceries Saturday and left with her guards but slightly above the waterv . 'The Maria Denning left for New Orleans on SiUunlay night with a good trip. Her cargo will certainly keep the -Secessionists in fighting trim for some little time. We hope while they are disposing of the meaU and breadstuff? that they will come to tbe.conelusion that the north-west would much prefer feeding, to fighting, them, and shape their couise accordingly. Negotiations are pending for Ike introduction ot the Moses McLellan into the Louisville and Memphis trade. The Prairie Rose has entered the tre.de between Memphis and Cincinnati, and will ran in tbe Accommodation Liue with the Messenger and Neptune. The steamer D. B. Campbell passed up on Saturday night. She has been chartered by Capt. Shewmaker to take the place of the Caroline in tbe Upper Wabash river trade. Vin. Sun, 2-l'h. The New Albany Ledger says that the old William Garvin is lying opposite Towtisend & Wible's shipyard. We understand she is for sale, and if not disposed of we learn her owners will build for her machinery. The boat is old, and never made a dollar for her owners. She has been running in some Southern trade, and was once a packet between here and Henderson. New Mail Boat. The Louisville and Cincinnati mail line have closed contracts in this city for the immediate construction of a fine boat, to ply in the daily line between this port and Cincinnati. The new craft is to be similar to the Superior, only a much better and faster boat, with two feet more beam, which insures unusual light draught. The hull is under the contract of the Messrs. Howard, of the Fulton shipyard; the machinery is to made by Dennis Long, of this city, tbe best and most enterprising engine builder in the West ; and McCIarau & Co., of tbe steam factory, are to make the cabin ami upper works. The new mail boat is to be a superior craft in every respect, and will be out in time for the sum mer campaign. Capt. Sherley, President of the Mail Company, superintends the construction of the boat. Lou. Cour., 2th. RAILROAD RECEIPTS.

NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. BY TUB K. W. LIN. Exclasivelyforhjrorirnal. CONGRESSIONAL.. Washington, January 26. IJocsk. Mr. Grow of Pa. offered a resolution that the select committee of five appointed on the 7th inst., be instructed to inquire whether any secret hostile organization against the government of the United States in the District exists ; if so, whether any officers of the Federal Government in executive or judicial departments are members thereof. .Mr.Burnett. I desire to know and it is certainly due the House to know whether any reason or fact exists for putting on foot any such investigation. It is a reflection on the City of Washington and the federal government, and ought not to be entertained unless the gentleman from Penn. states on his responsibility that there is such a conspiracy. As for myself, I don't believe in any such a conspiracy. I don't believe that any purpose is contemplated either by citizens of this district or the adjoining States of making any foray or raid on this city or interfering with the peaceful inauguration of the President of the gentleman's choice. It does feem to me right and proper that such a statement should be made by the gentleman from Penu. before we inaugurate proceedings directly reflecting on the patriotism and faithfulness of

the people ot the District to the federal government. A more miserable, contemptible mode of engendering bad feeliDg and making tho excitement worse than it is now could not be introduced. Mr. Grow. I would not have offered the resolution unless I supposed there was something to base it on. - Mr. Cochrane. Is debate m order. Mr. Speaker. I did not understand the gentleman from Kj as objecting to the resolution. If he did then debate is not in or der. Mr. Branch of N. C. 1 will object to the resolution until I see the chairman of the select committee. Mr. Grow. I spoke to the chairman yes terday in regard to this resolution and it met his sanction. I have reason to believe that tliee was such a design entertained by some persons in the employ of the government. To what extent it basgone I don't know, and for that reason offered the reso lution. It the gentlemen on the other side don't want to investigate they can object and that would afford better evidence that there is something in it. Mr. Burnett. I have not objected to the resolution. If the member says-, there is reason for investigation he shall have tt as thorough as he desires. Therefore there was no necessity for the remark that its being objected to would afford evidence of the existence of such a conspiracy. Mr. Kunkle objected. The Speaker said he would not attempt to deprive any gentleman of his right, but the gentleman from Pennsylvania demanded the previous question before the gentleman from N. C. was recognized. Mr. Kunkle. I am aware that the gentleman who occupies the chair is not well disposed towards me at any time. Calls of order on the Republican side of the House. Mr. Craig of N. C. wanted to offer au amendment. Mr. Grow. I bavo dermnided the previous question. Mr. Craig, amid much confusion, indicated Lis amendment as follows : That the committee inquire by what authority troops are stationed on the Southern side of the Capitol. Was it to control the proceedings here at the point of the bayonet and the mouth of the cannon ? Mr. Grow's resolution was then adopted. Mr. Thomas of . Tennessee presented the resolutions of the Tennessee legislature in response to the resolutions of the legislature of N. Y., concluding with the following : "Whenever the authorities of the latter State send a military force to the South for the purpose of coercion, the people of Tennessee will unite with the South to resist such invasion at r 11 hazards." The resolutions were laid on the table and ordered to be printed. The Speaker laid before the House a message from the President, returning with his objections the bill for the relief of Hockaday h I-eggitt. Mr. Alley of Massachusetts said this bill was in relation to the mail service. The veto was a most extraor linary proceeding on the part of the President, though the President had exercised an unquestionable constitutional right if he thonght the bill wrong. There weresttong legal claims and the veto should not be sustained. Mr. Branch sustained the President in thus performing his duty. Mr. Craig of Missouri and other gentlemen made remarks on the subject. The question was then taken on the passage of the bill notwithstanding the objections of the President, ns required by the Constitution in such cases. - The House resumed the consideration of the report of the committee of 33. Clark and Gilmer ca'.v-d ou tho Republicans, who were the responsible party, to submit the Crittenden resolutions to the people. Pry or obtained the floor, and the House adjourned. St. Lotis, Jan. 26. The resolutions recently passed by the Tennessee Legislature relative to the action of the New York Legislature tendering men and money to the President to coerce the seceding states, came before the House yesterday and' were referred to the Committee on Federal Relations. Thesame resolutions were made the special order for to-day in the Senate. At a Democratic caucus last night resolutions wero adopted similar to those of Mr. Crittenden. Advices from different parts of the State indicate a union feeling, and that the Convention will be filled with conservative men. The river has fallen eight inches in the last 48 hours.

WORKINGMEN'S MEETING. Philadelphia, Jan. 2Gth. Though the deep snow that covers the streets to-night renders walking disagreeable, the mass meeting of tbe workingmen at Independence Square was largely attended, some 5,000 or 6,000 men standing ankle deep in snow listening to speeches of their representation. Employees of all large manufacturing establishments of the county marched to the place of meeting, beariug torches and lanterns, and accompanied by bauds of music. Tbe mottoes inscribed on the banners

were mostly suggestive of peaceful conciliation of the present natioual difficulties, and expressive of approbation of Crittenden's Compromise. Isaac Van boughton, of the Pennsylvania KtUroad Car Works, presided over the deliberations of the meeting. A series of ably written resolutions were read and unanimously adopted, lamenting the present national troubles, inaugurated and hastened by political demagogues: recommending the repeal by the State Legislature of all obnoxious laws and passage by Con gress of the Crittenden plan of compromise or some other measure to be submitted to the people; and in case the present Congress finds itself unable to agree on such terms, requesting the membet-3 thereof to resign their seats that they may be filled with competent men who will. Tbe resolutions also deprecate anv collision between the General Government and any of the States as such a calamity would strike a death blow to all hopes of a settlement. ' They last pledze the workingmen to sustain the general government in the main tenance of its powers. They provide for the appointment of delegates to a national convention of workingmen to meet at Phil adelphia, February 22d, and a committee of 33 to present these resolutions to the State legislature aud Congress. Much enthusiasm was manifested, and the proceedings gave evidence of the anxiety of the workingmen and their determination to interfere iu the present crisis. LOUISIANA SECEDES. Baton Rouge, Jan. 26. At ten minutes past. 1 o'clock this afternoon the vote on the ordinance of secession was taken, which re suited in yeas 113, nays 17. Baton Kocge, Jan. 2a.

Considerable debate ensued, Messrs.

Nebeker, Bundy, Veatch, and McLean advo cating the passage of the bill without the restrictions on the Bank. The House defeated a motion of Mr. Smith of Bartholomew, to lay the bill and amendments on tbe table, by ayes 40, noes 49. It was then made the special order of the day for Thursday next at 2 p. u The bill to change the time of service of process on Railroad companies from 30 days notice to 15 days, was engrossed. The following message wai received from the Governor. Executive Department, l January 24, 1861. j To the House of Representatives of the Utile of Indiana : 1 learn from the Hon. N. Cunningham, Treasurer of State, that there are not more than $5,000 in tbe State Treasury. The Legislature will at once perceive the neces sity of making some provision whereoy the current expenses ot the State Government can be paid, and the credit of the State pre served. It is estimated that S40,000- will be sufficient to meet all the expenses of the government until such times as a sufficient amount of State tax can be collected from the various counties. As the law stands, the county treasurers are not required to make their settlements with tbe State Treas urer, until the second Monday of April, and the result is that only a small part of tbe State tax is paid in .until that time. The 11th seetion of tbe act passed March 1st, 1859, to provide a general treasury system, provides that the Treasurer of State may at auy time call upon the county treasurers to pay into tbe State treasury any money in the treasury of any county belonging to, or due the State ; but as there is no penalty provided in the act for the failure to com ply with the requisition of the State Treasurer, it has, I learn, been generally disregarded There are, no doubt, large sums ot money in the various county treasuries, bulonging to the State, which, if paid over, would re lieve ii of all embarrassment, and dispense with the necessity ot making loans to meet the ordinary expenses f the government. I therefore recommend that the act of March 1st, 1839, before referred to, be so amended as to enable the State Treasurer, whenever, in his opinion, the exigencies of the State require it, to call upon the various county treasurers to pay over to the State Treasur er whatever monies they may have on hand belonging to the State, and prescribing suit able and proper penalties for failing to comply with such requisition. In this way, I think, adequate provision may bo made to meet any temporary loan contracted to meet the deficiences of the Treasury. There are two sources from which the money may be obtained, from the Bank of the State and the Sinking Fund. The oflicers of the Bank express their readiness to furnish the money, if called for, aud the President of the Sinking Fund informs me that he has now on hand some $80,000 belonging to the Fund, which he ha3 held back from distri bution to the various counties, nt the sug gestion of the State Oflicers, that it would probably be required to supply deficiencies in the State Treasury. A3 to the source from which the money should be obtained, I have no other recom mendation to make than tbi3 that if it lie tbe purpose of the State to continue the distribution of their Sinking Fund to the counties, as provided by the act of March 1st, 18a9,the loan should be made from the Bank, and the distribution be allowed to proceed as provided by law. The act or way '11, 1852, aulhorizing tho Governor, Auditor, and Treasurer ot State to borrow money, does not meet the present case, as it only confers authority to borrow money, to pay the interest on the State Debt. I therefore recommend, that the Governor, Auditor and Treasurer of State, be authorized to make such temporary loan, or loans, not to exceed 550,000, as may be necessary to defray the expenses of the State, until the receipts in the treasury may be sufficient therefor. OLIVER P. MORTON, Governor. Mr. Branham, chairman of the committee of ways and means, denounced in the se verest terms the practice ot drawing money from the treasury without authority of law. He advocated a reform of the system, and hoped that hereafter all officers violating the law would be set to breaking stone. The communication was referred to the committee on ways and means. A message was received from the Governor, inclosing resolutions of the Legislature of Virginia, relative to tbe condition of the time3, and recommending a Conventiou of Representatives of the States, to meet at Washington City on tho 4th day of February, to adopt measures to secure the rights of the Southern States, by adopting as an adjustment, the Crittenden Compromise. Referred to the Committee of Thirteen. Adjourned.
