If the Republicans are to blame for the secession movement, who was to blume for the accession from the National Demo cratic Convention? "II. If the Republicans are to blame for keeping up the present crisis by their unwil lingness to compromise (which means con cession) for the sake of tho Union, why didn't the Douglas Democrats make con cessions in the National Convention for the suko of the union of tho Democratic party? "III. ny didn t tho Democratic party let the ' nipper question' alone (on which it split,) and sacrifice their principles for the suko of tho Union, when they knew perfectly well thnt tho aepuratiou would cause their defeat? "IV. If tho South would not accept Populnr Sovereignty as a compromise in the National Democratic Convention, would they accept it now? ' A Story or Or.s. Jackbom. A corres pondent of the Tribune tells this story: A prominent gentleman in this Stute told me, on unquestionable authority, a reminiscence of4he days of nullification. It seems that Got. Letcher, of Kentucky, who sympa thized with the nullifies in 1832, called upon Gen. Jackson to learn, If possible, what the General intended to do toward crushing Calhoun's conspiracy against the Union. The Gorcrnor opened the subject mildly, and Jackson fjnly answered by tell ing Letcher to read a certain instrument of writing on tho table before them. Letcher read it, and found it to bo n war rant for the execution of John C. Culhoun. " But, my dear General, you don't intend to carry out what this paper calls for?" " Gov. Letcher, is my namo signed to tho pnper?" Yes, General, it is." "Aery well, Governor; it is very seldom that sign papers merely for effect. Governor, look on the left corner of the paper; is the seal of the United States to it?" " It is, Geiicrul." Gov. Letcher visited Sir. Cul- lionn after he left Gen. Jackson, and awakening him out of sleep, related to him his interview with Gen. Jackson. Gov. Letcher alleged that Mr. Calhoun assumed the appearance of a ghost, whon ho heard what Gen. Jackson intended to do, and nullification lost all Its venom from thnt hour. Gen. Jackson said on his death bed thnt he had only one thing to regret, and that was that he had not hung John C. Calhoun. 80" At a Into dinner party in New York, cx-President Yun Uuren related that iu his western tour, while President, one Lincoln, a luwer of somo locul ropute, was clmirman of tho reception committee; nnd in their formal interview he was so much impressed witli him that ho called at his room afterwards for more intimate dis course. Ho had often thought of that in terview and that man, nnd failing to hear of him in public life, ho had set it down thnt a brilliant intellect was lost to the vrnr lil under the insatiate lcv litijr of the gigantic West. Two years ago, however, that man emerged, and was heard of in n Senatorial contest that aroused tho in- roivsts nf the wholo country. To-day he was heard of again as tho President elect. And that was Abraham Lincoln, of Spring field, III. Mr. Yan Buran gave it as his testimony, from the remembrance of moro, than twenty years ago, that he was en dowed with talents to adorn tho station." Oregon I nlia.ns. Superintendent Gea ry's annual Report says that there are seven thousand Indiuns in Oregon, nnd thirtv-one thousand in Washington Ter ritory. Of these, about fourteen thousand are found between tho Cascade range and the Pacific, and twenty thousand in the interior. In Oregon ana the contiguous territory, there are over sixteen thousand who arc not embraced in existing treaties. The educational system has made but lit tle, if any, progress on reservations.

From our xtra, of Monday murninj but j LATER FROM THE EAST. The steamer Pacific reached Porllnnj on Saturday erouiiig, with date from the East to April S. Tho following is tho most important Intelligence: Arnit, 2. The X. Y. Tribune's Wash ingtou correspondent says Gen. Scott has given assurances that there has never been any idea entertained by tho Administration of abandoning Fort Monroe. The princl- tiles announced In tho Inaugural will not 10 abandoned: and if military necessity bo accepted as to Fort Sumter, it will bo for reasons which will not be held to apply elsewhere. Tho X. Y. World says that the Admin istration discredits tho reported sailing'of an Anglo-l'roiK'ii Ueet for our coust. The X. Y. Times says it is reported that the ' Puwuco' has been ordered to Sumter to take on board Anderson and his com mand. The other Southern forts are not to be disturbed. The Southern Commissioners Lave ad vised Jeff Davis that Ft. Sumter will be evacuated this week. Advices from Virginia soy that tho se cessionists, led by Hunter, Floyd, Dejar nctt, Mason, and Ben. McCulloch, are making superhuman efforts to carry that State. McCulloch says that somo conn d'etat will bo resorted to, as in Texas, if tho Convention fails to carry its point. Ar-iut.3. Accounts in rcirnrd to tho policy of the Administration respcclin Forts Sumter and Pickens, aro becoming mure contradictory daily. Texas advices state that Col. Ford had been reliably informed from Mutnmnrus that Gen. Anipudin, with n band of Mexi cans, was sixty miles off, marching on Brownsville. Anipudia had dispatched expresses with placards and handbills, an nouncing that Texas rightfully belonged to Mexico; that she could no longer seek sup port from tho icilcrnl Uoverumeiit; and thnt now was tho time to retuko tho Stute. Reinforcements iu largo numbers wero rap idly coming to him. Col. Ford had or dered nil heavy guns and ordnance stores at Brazos Island to be immediately re moved to tho scene of anticipated diffi culties. Gen. Miraiuon, it is said, was at Hava na, endeavoring to raise a forco for the purpose of invading Mexico. On tho 25th March, the steamer Gen. Rusk arrived at Key West with 200 troops for that place and Ft. Tortupras. The Crusader had reached Key West, with scoled orders, under charge of dipt. Cra ven, with marines. The Brooklyn was going into Key West, on the 26th, and there was no doubt she had left troops at Ft. Pickens. It was reported that the Spnuitdi (Ing had been hoisted at San Domingo by the Spanish nnd French. The Spaniards had previously written to Havnnn, stating that if Spanish forces were not sent there imme diately, they would hoist the Spanish (lag, whereupon five Spanish war vessels and 1,000 men sailed from Havana and took formal possession of San Domingo, aided by a French corvette. A letter from the See'y of the Treasury to U. S. Collectors says that, in consc- quenco of the control ol the warehouses of tho Uovcrnmcut in the ports of .south Car olina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Flor ida, and Texas, having been usurped, it is impracticable to continue tho practice of liouding goods for transportation at those ports, and Collectors are instructed that uo entry for transportation in bonds at said ports can bo permitted. Tho N. Y. Herald's Washington corres pondent says that troops have been landed at Ft. Pickens. Other advices say that the Southern Commissioners disbelieve the report. Jo Lane, just previous to his leaving New lork for tho Pacific, wrote to a friend, as follows: " I am out of politics; but I shall continue to stand by the right. I will urge tho Democrats of Oregon to adopt the Constitution of the Confederate States as their platform." The specinl Washington correspondence is filled witli reports of a warlike character, which may be thus summed np: On the night of the 3d April a steamer attempted to enter Charleston harbor. She refused to show her colors, and was fired into by the battery on Morris Island, and put to sea. Sumter, was to be abandoned or relieved at once. Anderson's supplies are complete ly cut off. Great activity prevails at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Several vessels were expect ed to sail last night. A flag of truce was sent by Mj. An derson to Gov. Pickens yesterday, bat the purpose is unknown. The Southern Commissioners demand the immediate surrender of Sumter and Pickens. The preparations for on attack ore com pleted at Sumter, and rapidly hurried on at Pickens. The impression is it will be made at both points in a few days. The policy of the United States Govern ment now is to hold Pickens at all hazards, and reinforce it if necessary. The Gulf squadron has been ordered to co-operate with Sleinmer. It is not yet settled whether Pickens has been already reinforced. It is believed the activity in the avy is designed for the collection of revenne in the Southern norts on shipyard. Other accounts say it is for the purpose of prc- venting the seizure of Sao Domingo by Spain . aw aiwi - v. ing the hrality of tbe collecfon of the re- neon board men-or-war. The troops from Texas at New York are again ordered booth. The A irguua Convention adjourned ,r, die last night. The final result of the pro ceedings lius not been telegraphed yet. Several resolutions reported by the mnjorl- ty of the commit ti-e hud been adopted. One opKscs the formation of geographical parties; another declares that the Territo ries conttituto a trust to tie administered for the common benefit of tho several States; Instead of the United States; another, thnt tho forts, etc., aro to be used to protect tho country against foreign foes A motion to Insert an ordinance of imme diate secession was rejected 15 to 89. Here ends report of proceedings for tho present. Reports from Texas stalo that Anipudia, with a large force, re-asserts tho rights of Mexico in lexis, is prepared for invasion, nnd is now marching a largo force on Brownsville. Col. Ford was concentrating all bin forces and heavy guns at Brazos. - It is asserted that Spain is prepared to seize San Domigo, and, ultimately, Hayti, and that Franco co-operates. Miramon was at Havnnn, trying to raise forces for the purpose of invniiing Mexico. The sailing of the Anglo-French fleet for this coast is discredited in some quarters. The reported seizure of government proiierty iu New Mexico is not confirm ed nnd is doubted yet by many. 1 ho uvcrngo luds on the new gnrcrn meut loan were 03. This is probably the new eight-million loan of the United States. Judge McLean of the U. S. Supreme Court, and Copt. Berrynmn of the Navy, aro dead. St. Lons, April 5 r. m. The X. Y. Herald's Washington dispatch says that the revolutionary movement in Virginia is progressing. Five thousand men arc ready immediately to take up arms against th? Government, under McCulloch, on the first pretext, and reinforcements were expected from New York, Philadelphia nnd Balti more. Lane nnd Pomeroy were elected U. S. Senators from Kunsas by small majorities. Increased activity is displayed nt the Navy Yards about New York. Soldiers wero embarking for points unascertained.

The entire Opposition ticlict is elected by about tho same majority as tho Mayor. II. L. Stout, Republican, is elected Mayor of Dubuque, Iowa. A majority of the other city oflicers are Democrats, and a majority of tho Common Council Repub licans. The Republicans have elected William W. Thomas Moyor of Portland, Muine. Last year a Democrat was elected. The Republicans have also elected their Mayor in Monmouth, HI., and the entire Council. Kt'RorEAN News. Wo huve dutes to the 20th of March.

Mr, Davis, of Maryland, addressing the House, said: W e are at tin end of this Hi' sain and rabid system, which, for thirty years, has, In the United Stutes, worn the musk of Government; and it now only re mains to close the masquerade with the dance of war. Whether the tieoplu will tread that measure ot their own remains yet to bo seen. We aro actually in the early youth of tho nation's life, nnd yet already our career has been marked by prematura f xccsscs. Tho pertictuntion of our ivohtlcol maxims lias utterly demoral ized nil tlio springs of Government; cor ruption, plunder, the desire of office, and tho power of ambition, hnvo usuriicd the source of patriotism. These maxims have sunk deep into tho popular mind, and have passed more thnn ouco Into tho admiuiKtra lion of public affairs, and hnvo, as a nutu ml consequence, almost effaced the very idea of government. The Government, under these disastrous influences, has gradually abandoned, liko some dried stream, all tlio fields of home, lomestic, useful IfgiMutiflii, to concentrate itself on barren, bitter fields of party and sectional strife. Within one month after tho formal, peaceful, and regular election nf a Chief Magistrate of the United States, and without any new grievance having been alleged, without any new menace having been used, wo have seen, iu the short space of a mouth, six States, sus tained, it is true, liy only a small portion of their people, usurp the executive prcrogn live of rejiealiug the supreme laws of the land, and decluring themselves emancipated from all thoso obligations which tho Con stitutiou declares to be supremo over them mid over their Stuto laws, nnd usraping to themselves all the prerogatives of supreme mid independent power They have seized the I'irtresKcs of the L intcu fetutes conuded to the good fuith or tho people amongst whom they were built, and fur whoso pro tection they were intended. They have seized tho public arms concentrated in their midst for the general protection of the United States. They have seized upon the public offices and public property, and ac tually arrested a vessel of the United Stutes charged to bear reinforcements to one of their own forts. '1 Ins was only one of the symptoms of the great uenwral.za tiou which had tukcu possession of the Government and tho public mind. We kuvc seen also a Cabinet Minister delihcr ntelv, for months, preparing fur this great change. We have seen him distributing tho public nrms to be placed in the hands of those who were ready to seize thn pub lic properly, thus providing them with tho means of waging warfare against the Uni ted states. Jt is a symptom of tho same demoralization that we have teen Commis sioners, iu flagrant violation of tho Constl till ion or tho Lmted States, wandering from State to Stuto to stir up rebellion. A Cabinet .Minister still holding a commis sion under tlio authority of tho United Stntes, and still bound by his oath to sup port that Constitution, himself a Commis sioner from his own Stato to another State of this Confederacy, for the purpose of or ganizing there another portion of tho great scheme of rebellion. This is but a pnrt of the great demoralization. Another pnrt of it is, as we have sron, tho rrcsidcnt of the United States neglects the solemn warning of the first military officer of the age, and allows tho forts to be taken possession of; and wo have seen him, if not formally ex acting, yet substantially making bargains for pence till ho should bo removed from the responsibilities of office. It is a part of tlio same demoruli.iition that lios al lowed him to fail in every instance to de fend tho public property and to vindicate the honor of the nation, without bloodshed nay, without remonstrance, we have seen him standing in his Cabinet multering, " Not in my time, not in my time." He has demonstrated his incapacity for the high charge- nnd honor which the people have showered upon him. a 8onnr.ri.N- nKiTin.ic. Mr. Speaker, wo havo now this day, in a greut measure, to deal wilh the conse quences of tho President's incapacity. And it is to these I desiro to call your at tention. Six or seven States have' thrown off their allegiance to tho United States; it was fondly hoped only temporarily a proper partisan contrivance to restore the chief actors to power. But wo ore now informed by a response to the kindly mes sage of Virginia, from South Curolina, that their present position is permnueut, and that they desire to have, and will hnvo, no further o!iticul connection with tho United Stutes. And they wero told by a man who a moath ago was a Cabinet Min ister, and who was recently elected Presi ident of the Convention at Montgomery that man has informed us, in his inaugural speech, that their purpose was finally to sever their relations with the United States, nnd to take all the consequences of organ izing an independent Southern Republic. Wo are therefore driven to one of two al ternatives: we must recognize what we have been more than once told was nn ac complished fact, not to be recalled; or we must refuse to acknowledge it, nnd ac cept all the responsibilities that attach to that refusal. Hecognize what? A South and abandon to them the ern Republic! golf coast of Mexico; surrender the forts of the United Mates; change the policy we hare maintained for forty years; aban- don the privilege of free commerce and free intercourse; strike down the gnaran tiii of the Constitution; destroy the pros pect of onr fellow-citizens engaged in commerce in all the wide regions of onr country, covering thousands of miles of internal frontier, to be kept and protected by Internal forte and fortresses; to organ ize a standing army in order to be ready at a moment's warning to r;ist aggression; ll.VTMOK ADVUUTIHINU.

Mr. Speaker, 1 do not want to qtinml about words; I do not wish to say a word calculated to cxnsicrnto the already too much inflamed slate of the public mind; but here I any that tho Constitution of the United Stutes and the laws inado In pur- suanco thereof mutt be tnforctd, and tho.it vho ttunJ aerom the path of that enforce men! mutt either dct'rvy tht jwirer of tht I niled Shtet, or it will dettroy them. f Applause!

The courts of tho country, if mid be, may be separat ed ns they wero In Utah. The United Stntes mny remove or enlarge, tho jurisdic tion of the courts, expand the districts over sercral States, or hold courts in States which arc not disturbed. Tluso tiro tho regulur peaceful methods of enforcing tho laws of tho United Statrs. Time methods, if pursued, will allow time for reflection to thoso who have been huriied on under n sudden impulse, nnd who wero taken un prepared for so momentous n step by thu contrivance of thoso who wero mad for rev olution. The Government of the United States is vested with adequate constitution al powers to meet every emergency. If tho loyal citizens of nny Statu or portion of a Stuto who huve been unthinkingly precipitated into revolution shall see lit to withdraw themselves from their position uud recognizo tho Government of tho Uni ted States, Iho President can, on t.ie purl of tho Government, recognize thnn nnd xtcud to them the protection of the luws.
