Iverson. presented the ordinance of secession of Oeorgia, which ; was read. Headdressed the Senate justifying the course ot hia State. He said there were two important points for the consideration of the Government; either to make war or peace. If it niade war the South will seize all the fortifications and not pay a dollar of the public debt. Laughter. It coercion was attempted, the South would- fight and never 'submit to subjugation till every white man was exterminated. Cotton is king. If the Government blockades ports other nations will interfere. If : no war ensues, the South might consider thu subject of a reconstruction, but be was opposed to it. He acknowledged many courtesies, and bade the Senators farewell. Mr. Bigler presen ted the resolutions o the Pennsylvania Legislature. . ' ' Hemphill, made a lengthy address, arguing in favor of secession and that the withdrawal of a state wa3 not rebellion, and was no cause of war. He quoted the opinion of the framera of the Constitution against coercion. He said if civil war comes blood will flow at the North as well as at the South. ' There was no fear of the insurrection of the slaves, who would fight for their masters. Two confederacies would be more powerful than the present. . In his judgment Texas will be constrained to withdraw from the Cnion, and resume her glorious independence. , : . .. The subject , was postponed till Wednesday. - Adjourned. ' ".' ' , ' ' Horse.

' They were referred to the committee of five. '"' .; V On motion of Mr. Aldrich, the committee of ways and means was instructed to consider the expediency of repealing the tariff on sugar. Mr. Morris offered a resolution that members from slaveholdiug states be requested to present an ultimatum proposition, embracing their views upon which they will be willing to pledge their states lo act up to in the Union, as a final adjustment. He moved the previous question and the resolution was lost, 29 only voting in the affirmative. The Speaker laid before the House a message from the President, closing with a commendation of the peace resolutions ot the Legislature of Virginia, and hailing the proposition wjth grateful satisfaction, as to agreeing to abstain, pending the proceedings contemplated by the action of the General Assembly, from any and all acts calculated to produce a collision between the States and the Government of the United States. He says he has no power for such an agreement. Defense, not aggression, has. been the policy of the Government from the beginning. . He recommends Congress to abstain from passing any law, the enforcement of which is calculated to provoke hostilities. He trusts the mediation of Virginia may be the means, under 'Providence, ot accomplishing the ends of p?ace. The President does not yet despair of the Republic. The consideration of the message was postponed till to-morrow. ; ,,The report of the committee of 33 came up- : , Mr. Pryor vindicated the South,, ass urning that the Union was already dissolved, the only alternative now being peace or war. He argued that the Republicans by refusing concession, were about plunging the country into a war. He said the North would alone be accountable to posterity for the calamities resulting from civil war. The South is contending for the principles of constitutional freedom, and the cause of! the South is the cause of liberty. The .South would still accept satisfactory guarantees.

' ' ' Washington, Jau. 27. The Senate's spe- ' cial committee on the Tariff bill will report Wednesday. The Morrill bill after ac- ; tive investigation is pronounced to be excel- j lent in principle and general arrangement. Nearly two-thirds of the items have already been examined carefully. . No change of i duties on iron is intended. Efforts have been made to reduce the duty : on pig iron and steel, but without ' success. ! Woolens are to pay twelve cents per pound instead ot sixteen, as in the Morrill bill; j which conforms to the rates on raw material." The committee will recommend that the law go iuto operation on the 1st of April and the proposed modification of the warehouse system on the 1st of July, all the duties to be paid within 30 days after being entered. Merchandise for re-shipment can be stored six months. It is estimated that this bill will produce a revenue of $58,000, 000 on average imports. . The bill now contains a loan for 20,000, 000, which is iuteuded to cover outstanding Treasury notes. This will be increased to $25,000,000 in order to provide for objects i of special legislation and other items not included in Mr. Dix'a' statement.

The funds had ran steady, but on the 15th they became dull and heavy, and consols declined per cent., closing at 91 J91 1 for money, and 91$91f for account. The heaviness was caused by a report that the , Bank of France was still losing gold, and that a further rise in the rate of discoant there was contemplated. It was also said that the Bank of England was taking some considerable amounts of money on loans of stock. In the discount market there was no change ; good bills were negotiated at a fraction below the bank rate.

The Post's Pari3 correspondent says the people seem fully convinced that the armistice will expire without any decision and that Francis 2nd will surrender Gaeta. - The Paris Moniteur publishes a decree abolishing the surtax ot three trancs per hundred killogrammes on foreign sugar imported in French vessels from countries out of Europe.

First, for mal-administration in office. Second, for complicity in the abstractions of bonds. Third; for conspiracy against the government. It is expected that indictments will be ready for the action of the Jury to-morrow. Richmond, Jan. 26. Intelligence has reached here that previous to the passage 0f the Georgia Ordinance of Secession Harrison Rielly a promiuent .citizen of the mountain region of that State, proclaimed in another portion of Georgia that he was on bis way home, and intended to raise a party and take possession of the United States mint at Dahlonega for the United States Government in case Georgia passed a secession ordinance. His declaration caused considerable excitement in Milledgeville, and the Governor was requested to send military to Dahlouega, but had not d ne so at the date of the advices. On the same authority as above wa learn that there is a considerable union element in the mountains of Georgia and an anti-secession meeting was held in Pickens county. When they beard of the passage of the secession ordinance the old tttars and stripes were run up and the demonstrations of resistance to secession wre emphatic and unequivocal. The impression however at Milledgeville, was, that the people of Georgia will generally sustain the ordinance of secession and co-operate ia the formation of a Cotton Republic

We clip the following items of interest from the telcgraphicWashington correspond, ence of that excellent paper, the Cincinnati Gazette, under date of the 25th. Wm. H. West has been dispatched by Government to the Southern cities with most important dispatches and in great haste. . . As soon as Louisiana secede:', Congress will probably pass a bill repealing duties on sugar. The House Military Committee have unanimously agreed to report a bill for the relief of the officers and soldiers of Fort Sumter, sustained in their removal from Fort Moultrie. Russell and Bailey were indicted to-day by the Grand Jury. It is well understood that a true bill has been found against ExSecretary Floyd. The Brooklyn, it is believed, sailed for the defense of Fort Pickens at Pensacola. ., Cassias M. Clay is here, vigorously urging the adoption of Corwin'3 Compromise. By invitation he will address the Republican Association to-morrow night. It 13 quite certain that Crittenden's resolutions will not pass Congress, but some plan of compromise most likely will. An officer of the Navy, just from the South, says that all the States which have seceded except South Carolina, are ready to come back upon reasonable concessions being made. . . Messrs. Crittenden, ' Bigler, Douglaa nnd others called a meeting to-night with Etheridge and other conservatives of the House to consider a new Compromise measure, just elaborated, of a highly important character. The proceedings are strictly private. Mr. Adams's proposition regarding New Mexico gains ground slowly among Republicans. Letters from Tennessee say that the struggle between the Unionists and Disrnptionists is terribly bitter. The latter threaten, if beaten at the polls, to resist by force. It is believed that New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, and other Free States, will le represented at the Conference called by Virginia. A dispatch from Harrishurg, Pa., says that the Conservatives expect to effect the repeal of. the State Pereonsl Liberty Law next week. A wealthy planter just arrived from Arkansas reports that the triumph of secession in that State is inevitable. Death ok Ex-Gov. Letcheu. It be comes our painful duty to record the death of Ex-Governor Robert Letcher, who breathed his last at hia residence, in Franktort, at eight o'clock on Thursday evening. His history and character are known to Kentuckians. He hud filled many honorable positions in public life, commencing his political career as a member of the State Legislature, representing his district through several terms in Congress, occupying the gubernatorial chair, and retiring with the close of his mission to Mexico under Mr. Fillmore. We have confided in him as a politician, loved him as a friend, and will cherish his memory as one of the glories of the past. Louiaville Journal. g-a It will be seen from our Frankfort correspondence this morning that the Legislature of Kentucky Las adopted the 1 Resolutions applying to Congress to call a V:al rinnir.nlmi, fr.r nr,,.,; n ..,,..l meut3 to tae ('onstitntion.

The next step is a Convention of the IJorder States, iu ruspect to which the proposition of Virginia, embraced in the, Resolution we publish elsewbere to-duy, is worthy of consideration. We commend this proposition to the attention of the friends of the L'niou at Frankfort. Lou. Jour.
