O.; Fanny Bullitt, N. O.; Mattie Cook, B. Green; Mars, New Orleans. ——— ......The Weather yesterday was as pleasant as heart could wish. The sun shone brightly all day, and the atmosphere was as warm and balmy as spring. At night it was windy. ......The River is still on the decline here, but is rising rapidly above, and we anticipate that it will soon commence swelling at this point. CINCINNATI, Feb. 6, M.—River risen 4 1/2 feet. Now 31 1/2 feet in the channel.—— Weather clear. Thermometer 40°. ......The E. H. Fairchild arrived from Louisville yesterday afternoon. She took on considerable freight here. ......The Curlew arrived from the Wabash yesterday morning with a fair trip. She left again in the evening. ......The Vincennes Sun says the Wabash is now clear of ice, with about five feet of water in the channel. ......The LOUISVILLE is the name of a new candidate for public favor in the New Orleans trade. She is under the command of Capt. Billy Holcraft, and leaves Louisville for New Orleans on Saturday. She is said to possess a handsome model, and is presumed to be a fast boat. ......The Bracelet has been transferred from the Louisville and Henderson trade to that of Louisville and Memphis. The Courier says she will still be in charge of Captain Duncan. ......The Mattie Cook succeeded in getting off yesterday morning. She will be able to make only one trip this week. By Monday she will be ready to resume her regular days, and make two trips a week. ......The Little Grey Eagle will be at the landing this evening prepared to receive freight and passengers for Louisville. None know the Grey Eagle but to praise her. ......The Peytona left New Orleans on Friday last, and the Madison and Emerald on Wednesday. ......The Fanny Bullitt arrived yesterday morning. We are indebted to her officers for Louisville papers in advance of the mail. She received considerable freight here and went on her way rejoicing. ......The new steamer Samuel Orr is rapidly approaching completion. The Engineer thinks she will be ready to get up steam by Saturday and will probably be ready for her first trip by Thursday next. ......The Madison (Ind.) Banner of the 2ud says: A flat boat loaded with hay only, apparently, passed down night before last. There were three field pieces on board, concealed in the hay, besides a quantity of muskets, &c. The boat landed at the Mammoth Cave, lying there some time, whence this information leaked out through some of the crew. They will take on fifty barrels of powder just above Louisville, and are bound for Vicksburg. Our informant states that the commander said the undertaking was at the instance of the rebel government of Mississippi, and expressed fears that he would meet with difficulty in getting down. ......Yesterday the Aurora, from upper ports going South, while working her way through the raging canal, had her smoke stacks, or chimneys, curried away at one fell swoop, or rather swing, of the bridge. She was going down, stern foremost, and the tender at the swinging bridge, seeing the wheel—she is a stern-wheeler—all clear, turned the bridge, and it cut her chimneys down to the deck. The Aurora stopped at New Albany to repair damages, and the bill may possibly be sent to the Canal Company to settle.— That is the first accident of the kind that has occurred since the demolishment of the stone bridge. If not unavoidable it was an <unforeseen> disaster.—<Lou. Cour., 5th>. ———<>——— RAILROAD RECEIPTS. FEBRUARY 6, 1861. doe. brooms, J. B.

A greed to. - Mr. Crltteiidoo presented a petition from the citizens of Massachusetts in favor of the Crittenden compromise resolutions. Mr. Ten Eyck presented six petitions from citizens of Philadelphia, asking Congress to stand by the Constitution. Mr. Wilson, from committee of military affairs, reported a bill for the better organization of the militia of the District of Co lumbia. Laid over. Iles9rs. DfccoH and Bigler presented petitions in favor of the Crittenden resolutions. One of the petitions was from a tire compa ny in Lancaster, Pa., orgarized befora the adoption of the Constitution, printed ou. a lare American nag. .Mr. Foster presented a petition numer ously signed, in favor of the border state plan J. Mr. Cameron presented petitions in favor of the Constitution and enforcement of the laws. Mr. Fessenden presented petitions from citizens of Maine, praying that something mav be done to save the Union. A committee of conference was appointed on disagreeing amendments to the deficien cy bill. ... W igfall got the floor. . The Senate went into executive session Adjourned. House The Speaker laid before the House a message from the President inclosing a resolution from the Kentucky Legislature, which asks Congress to call a national convention to amend the constitution. He commends the proposition. Mr. Nixon introdufed a memorial from 1,000 citizens of New Jersey, asking for the adoption of the Crittenden resolutions. He was satisfied that a large majority of the people of that State desired Congress to act speedily on them. . The Senate amendments to the loan bill were taken up. Mr. Phelps advocated concurrence in the amendment to repeal the act of June, 1860, authorizing a loan and providing for the redemption of treasury notes. Mr. Sherman replied that if this was l-ftgreed to it would afford no security for re tiring the Treasury notes, authorized by the act of December, He trusted that the next administration would never coaie here with j a loan bill in time of peace. The expenses should never be allowed to exceed the reve nue. The amendment was rejected, 59 to 101. A conference committee on part of the Senate was asked. Mr Colfax tailed up the bill to suspend mail service in seceding states, which, after debate, was passed, 121 against 26. Various memorials for the settlement of the existing crisis were presented. The consideration of the report of the committee of 33 was resumed. Mr. Humphrey said he could not negotiate with traitors nor the Government compound with treason, but to loyal states there was no rational demand he would deny, consistent with honor and principle. Let Lincoln be inaugurated and then Congress could address themselves to the subject. Mr. Harris of Virginia was for the Union, even now, bleeding and shattered as it was. The cotton states are gone, but the Republicans by coming forward like men and rendering justice to the South, can prevent a further rupture until the border states, by4 a firm and conciliatory course, can adjust with them all pending difficulties.. This done the states would return and the Union be on a more permanent basis than ever. Maynard of Tenn. advocated the Crittenden propositions. He appealed to Republicans not to attempt coercive policy. The moment such a war was commenced, South Tennessee would make common war with the South. Wells argued against the abandonment of principles by Republicans. He deprecated civil: war and would use no more force agatust seceding states than was necessary for the interests of the country. Adjourned. Washington, Jan. 6th. Private letters from leading telegraph men by the last mail from California, leave little room to doubt that under the present judicious diplomacy of Mr. Wade, the representative of, the Western Union Telegraph Company, all telegraph' interests in California will be consolidated, and a strong company formed on the Pacific to co-operate with the Western , Union Company on the Atlantic side in rapid completion of the Pacific line, on the recent Congressional grant. We also understand, from well informed parties, that in connection with the Pacific line, an earnest and persevering effort will., be made to extend telegraph facilities, via Oregon, the British and Russian Possessions, &e., to Europe. The utter failure, thus far, of long submarine cables, leaves, in the judgment of these parties, little, if any, hope for a permanently successful line to Europe, except via Behring's Straits, at the intersection of the Pacific and Arctic oceans. Tho United Slates, and several of the European Governments, are confidently relied upon to favor this world-wide enterprise. Washington, Feb. 6. In the Peace Congress to-day a resolution was introduced proposing to conduct proceedings with open doors; it wa3 earnestly debated. The result was" a restriction otn the commissioners from communicating their doings to outside parties. ; The commissioners are socially harmonious, but as yet have discussed no measure looking to political results. "" A number of Republican members of the -New Jersey Legislature are here urgingthtir Representatives uot to agree to any compromise inconsistent with their " principles. The steamer Michigan on Lake Erie, will be put in commission on the 1st of March. An artillery company recently left at Augusta ha3 been ordered here. Norfolk, Vs., Jan. 6th. Northampton county Fisher, Southern Rights, has a large mnjority ; Warwick, Elizabeth City, and Williamsburg Mallory, Union, is elected.' In Accomac, Curtis, Union, is elected. Islo of Wight Whitefield, Secessionist, is elected. Fokt Smith, Ark., Jan. 6. Advices re ceived to-day by the oiitor of the Thirty- ; Fifth Parallel, state thai the Texans have ) threatened to take possession of Forts Wa- ! chita, Cobb, and Arbuckle, iu the Indian Territory. It is thought that the force at each of these statious is sufficient to pro- ' tect it. The conductor of the Overland Mail at I Little R.ock, reports that the arsenal at that ' place was taken possessiou of by State troops on Saturday evening last. "

TEXAN ORDINANCE PASSED. GALVESTON, Feb. 5.—The ordinance of

') secession passed on the 1st inst by a vote . j t ir.fi i.. 7 ine uoveruor, legislature and supreme ' Judges were present. The ordinance is lobe voted on by the people on the 23d of Februj ary and if adopted will go into effect on the j 2d of March. ' ' . Governor Houston recognizes the conven tion- of the people, declares hia attachment to the South and a desire to join the Southern confederacy, but if none is formed, favors the Republic of Texas. The secession news from Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana, creates much excitement in Northern Texas. INTELLIGENCE FROM FORT SUMTER. New York, Feb. 6. The steamship Marion from Cbar'sston arrived to-day. Among the. passengers wera twenty wives of soldiers and seventeen children, who suf fered very severely from sea sickness during the trip. They represent the garrison at Fort Sumter as in excellent health, not a single soldier being on the sick list. The strongest Union feeling pervaded the com pany, and they looked forward to an attack with confidence in their ability to repel an assault. There are sevetj'-five soldiers and thirty laborers all of whom are now busy in mounting heavy columbiads, on tae ram parta and in the fortress yard. The majori ty of the soldiers are of foreign birth, about half of them being Irish, and a large mini -bar Germans. The garrison is now supplied daily with fresh meats and provisions of all kinds from Charleston, although only enough was brought in for each day's use. The supply of salted meats and camp rations is ample for a long seige. No reinforcements had been received when the Marion left, and from Capt. Adkins's statement, it would appear that great difficulties would be met in entering Charleston harbor with reinforcements or supplies. The Charleston volunteers are drilling daily, and they with the aid of laborers are placing Moultrie and other f.trt3 in the best state of defense. There are about 3,000 soldiers now in the entrenchments, and their numbers are constantly augmenting by arrivals from the interior. It is repre sented that whatever work is done in the way of rendering Fort Moultrie capable of repelling an attack, she cannot be made to command Fort Sumter in any event or to damage it by her cannonade. Tha wives and children will leave on the Marion at four o'clock thi3 p. m. on their way to Fort Hamilton, where they will remain during the winter. They are in good spirits and seem to think that their husbands are per fectly safe in their present situation. Washington, Feb. 5 The great speech of Senator Johnson of Tennessee to-day is the universal topic of discussion. His denunciation of secessionists was terrific and overwhelming. He did not hesitate to hold up as traitors the late Senators who had committed themselves as leaders in secesfion and rebellion.-' Mr. Chase of Ohio expressed himself as particularly gratified with ex -President Tyler's speech in the Congress, and assured him as most of the other commissioners did that they were willing to follow where Virginia led. The hopes of the Union are high tonight. . ; In the Peace Congress to-day notice was given that Massachusetts would send. Commissioners. The motive for not proceeding to business was the desire to wait for the Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee and New York delegations. Mr. Kellogg of Illinois to-day received a dispatch from a distinguished Republican of Springfield stating be wouM be sustained by many leading Republicans oi that State in the proposition for compromise which he has introduced into the House. Major Haskin commands the company of artillery stationed at the eastern front of the Capitol. He was in command at Baton Rouge' when that arsenal was taken by State, ti oops. The War Department entirely approves of his conduct in surrendering. ' Washington, Feb. 5. John Tyler on taking the Chair overthe Peace Congress delivered an address, which is eulogized by those who heard it as highly patriotic and conciliatory. .The proceedings were chiefly confined to an expression of riews and somewhat conversionat. A committee of New York merchants is here opposing the Warehouse system proposed in the new tariff bill. Bouligny is the only member from seceding states who takes an active part in the proceedings. v ' The tellers to count the votes for President and Vice President, are Trumbull from the Senate, and Washburn of Illinois and Phelps for the House. Several Alabama Postmasters decline to render accounts saying they await the action of their State. Additional evidence continues to be received of the violation of private correspondence in tbe South. The Court of Inquiry to investigate the surrender of the .. Pensacola navy yard, meet3 on Friday. Gov. Hicks was summoned a few days ago to appear before the investigating committee on conspiracy to eeiae the Capitol. He will probably be examined on Thursday. Commander Walker is to be court martialed for surrendering the store ship Supply. Secretary Black was nominated to-day as successor to Justice Daniels and Jno. Pettit for District Judge of Kansas.New Haven, 'Feb. 6. The democratic state convention met in this city this morning and organized by the choice of Wm. B. Burrill as President. The morning was occupied-in the appointment of the usual committees. Hon. J. C. Loomis of Bridgeport is prominently named as candidate for Governor. The convention is a lull one. It is supposed a majority of the committee of 21 on resolutions are Douglas men. . New Orleans, Feb. 6. In ths convention to-day a resolution to appoint commissioners to all slaveholding states not yet seceded and invite them to join a Southern Confederacy was tablod by a vote of 08 to 47. Washington, Feb. C. MrCorwin awaits the action of the peace conference before pressing for a vote on bis proposition, as reported from the committee of 33. It is reported that tbe Minnesota delegation in Congress had" advised the Governor of their state to send commissioners to the couventiou here.
