In thia nolo thu General Biiid thu new Ailiniiiistrutiou had three ways open to deal with treason call u convention of nil the States, mid give the rebels wliut they want, nnd will" take whip them into subjection let them go. This letter having hicu published without hiu consent, and it having been intimated that Gen. Scott was opposed to 'coer cion," liu wrote to the National IitltHicU' ce' nt Washington, pending certain ineiiio randii of conversations held wiih Presi dent IJuchauan in the Full of 18(50 nnd Spring of 18(51. nnd also copies of Notts Kent to the " Old Public Functionary." This disclosure furnishes u line field for the historian, nnd binds tothee.v-Presiileiit which lasted to thu cud of his term. It was not until January .

In case of movements by the United Slates, which will doubtless be made known by the wires, there will bo corresponding" meal movement, and the attempt to leinforro will be useless."

On December I'Jth, he ugnin urged up on the Secretary to garrison the forts, but that ollieial did not, ol course, concur. He would not do It. On December loth, lie saw the IVsi dent on thu sumo subject, but the Presi dent said there was no danger of mi early secession beyond South Cnmliua that the timu for action hr.d not arrived hu would wait to hear from the South Carolina Convention, iu tho expectation that it would send u commission to negotiate for tlie Recession of the State! nnrl if Con gress disagreed to the proposal he would then reinforce Monltrie and Sumter. And to this thu Secretary of Wnr, who was present, replied that lie could send the Hronklvn iu easo the President named. with three hundred men from Fortress! Monroe, to ( hnrleston, thus throwing that fort into the hands of the rebels. but Gen. Scott replied that it would then be too late, as the Commissioners could use the wires and then cut them. On the same day, and alter the inter view, tliu General sent n note to the Presi dent f-liowing how (Jen.
