From the Pittsburgh Dispatch of Tuesday 25th. Disarming? Penksylvania ! SuiFriNo Cannon South I By referenc e lo oar lo cal column it will be seed that some excitement prevails here on account of an effort by "Pennsylvania's Favorite Son" to ship tbe government cannon at this point lo the far South, where they may be used to deprive us and the great West of the use of the mouth of the Mississippi. Our people are a unit in the sentiment that not a gun shall be shipped South. Mori Treason. It is not enough that we are to be sold to the secessionists the administration would bind us hand and foot, deprive us of arms, and deliver us, tied neck and heels, lo the traitors who wo Id destroy the Union! It has already ordered 124 heavy guns from our Allegheny Arsenal to (he far South not to defend the stars and stripes, for which our skillful mechanics made them, but to batter it down under the pirate fl4g of some Lone Star or Rattlesnake govern-j ment. The order came few days ago to ship on Wednesday, Lec. 20 J, the following guns: To ship, near the Balizo, mouth of Mississippi : SI ten inch Coluinhiads, 123 pounders. 21 eight" " 64 " 4 iron guns, 'iLl " To Newport, near Galvestonlsland, Texas, 23 ten inch Columbians, 128 pounders. 48 eight inch 64 " 7 iron guns, 34 " in all one hundred and twenty-four guns, one broadside of which would throw five ton 8 of bulls. To lake these would str'p us entirely of cannon, and leave us disarmed, and (as fur as cannon are con-concerned) at the mercy of traitors. For months tbe muskets have been sent to Southern points, where rebels have already eeiied them by the thousands. Shall Pennsylvania be disarmed, and Charleston allowed with impunity to seize on Federal aims with which to overthrow The Union? Will our people submit to this? Our citizens, of all parties, b's a unit, denouce the movement us treason, aud prominent Democrats, leading Breckinridge men, have telegraphed to Washington to hove the order revoked. If it is not done when treason endeavors lo dest.oy the Union, while for two months yet in power we owe a duly to th nation, to the State of Ptnnsylvania, and to ourselves to prevent (by force, if necessary,) the transfer of these munitions of war, under the color of law, to the enemies of the nation. Had Benedict Arnold succeeded to fur in his treachery, as to have ordered the delivery of West Point, its cannon and munitions of war to the British, would his commisbioQ or his epaulettes have given force to an order tainted with vile treason? No, his gallant officers would hare torn the epaulettes from the shoulders that disgraced them, burnt his commission, put him in charge of a guard, and double-shotted their guns for an enemy howevir aithdby shameful treason. Let it be so with Mr. Secretary Floyd. The people of Allegheny county should see that the cannon purchased by the national treasure are not conveyed to the far South; nnd they need not barricade Liberty and Penn streets to prevent it. Let them decide that no cannon shall be shipped till the Charleston Arsenal is in the possession o! the Federal Government and Fort Moultrie is reinforced, nnd none will be. The Mayor, at the reiiucst of citizens of all parties, will probably call a meeting for Wednesday to consider what action is cccessuiy. On application for information to Mj. John Symington, (of Maryland) in command at Allegheny Arsenal, he politely declined giving us any information "in tho prescnr slate of nfl'.irs he should not s:ty anything about it" in reg-ird to the amount of cannon, arms, etc., and recent shipments. On inquiring in Lawienceville. we were informed that lor a week or more governmtut wagons have been hauling musktts to the city one of the employees stating mat ten tnousanu muskets were shipped within a week no doubt to be placed where tiaitora can obtain posses sion of them without a gun btinj: fired. from another source we learn that small arms, cavalry equipments, balls and shells have been quite recently shipped by river to tne aoutn. The Government is even now ''huriy ing up- me completion or tne enormous twelve itch gun at the Fort Pitt Foundry, ana nopes, aoutnicis, to nave it South be fore the 4th of March. There are about a hundred ten inch (128 pounder) cannon at the Arsenal, the orders are to ship forty-four of this size Gen. J. K. Moorhead, M. C on hearing oi tne8e movements, at once telegraphed to Mr. Stanton, chairman of the Military Cotnmittc, House of Representatives, to make inquiry at the War Department on the subject. He then applied to Major Symington for information, nnd learned that the guns were designed for two new foris, which had not yet been mounted or even named that t1 e carri!;es were made at Watcsvillc, N. Y.,and these guns were made lor those Torts; that all the muskets hiretofore ordered have been shipped, and no further requisitions made; that no cannon have been shipped except to nil ordinary requisitions. Arrangements were making on Monday to haul some of these guns to the river, We suppose tome one will tap the fire bells cn the route on their making their appearance on Penn or Liberty streets, that our people may witness their removal A' contract was made on Monday, with the steamer Silver Wave, (owned by Capt J. S. McMillcn of this city, S. S. McMil- len of Beaver county, and David Wilkins of Chicago,) at twenty dollars a ion, for taking 422 J tons of cannon to New Orleans, designed for Galveston and 271 tons formalize, remain to be contracted for. Since the above was in type we received information from Mnj. Symington, no. varying from what he gave Cen. Moore head, published above. We also learned from several that an extra guard was mounted at the nrsennl on Monday night. The House Committee of thirty-three will probably soon go to pieces. . The proposition of Mr. Adams, of Mass., to adm.it New Mexico with slavery, is gncr-allr etcou'ed by the Republicans; Thg Cominittoo of Thlrtoon. The committee of thirteen sat three hours to-day, and reached one important result. . It has been constantly charged by tho south, and was repeated ia Mr. Nicholson's speech to-dny, that the growing power of the Republican party threatened amendments to the tonstitution by which their rights iu the states would be impaired, if not destroyed. To meet this difficulty the Republicans conferred tt gether, and submitted the following propositions through Mr. Seward, though they were drawn by Mcsbis. Grimes and Collamer: First: No amendment shall be made to the constitution which will authorize or give to Congress any power to abolish or interfere in any stute with the domestic institutions thereof, including that of per sons held to service or labor by the laws of 8iiehstate, This was carried by tho following vote: Yens Messrs. Powell, Hunter, Crittenden, Seward, Douglas, Collamer, Wade, Bigler, Rice, Doolittle and Grimes 11. Nays Messrs. Davis and Toombs 2. Second: The Fugitive Slave law of 1850 shall be so amended as to secure to the alleged fugitive a trial by jury. Mr. Douglas proposed to amend by inserting "in the state from which the fugitive escaped." This was carried, and then the wholo proposition was voted down by the democrats, nil the republicans sustaining it. Third: It shall bo respectfully recommended to the several slate legislatures to review all of their laws, aQec'.in' the rights of persons recently resident in other states, and to modify and repeal all such as shall contravene the provisions of tho constitution of tfc United States or of any of the laws made in pursuanoo thereof. This was lost as follows: Yeas Messrs. Grimes, Seward, Wade, Doolittle, Collamer and Crittenden C. Nays Messrs. Powell, Hunter, Toombs Douglas, Davis, Bigler and Rice 7. The southern men voted adversely upon iho ground that, though it was not openly astigned, this proposition would affect their laws imprisoning colortd sea men. It will be seen that the extremists would not tusiuin the propositions intended to meet tho very cases they had specifically charged against the North. Mr. Toombs' resolutions were then call ed up, and four of them voted upon, Mr. Douglas refusing to go upon tho record. They were then postponed until Wednei day, Mr. Toombs aud the ultras resisting any delay. And for the transparent ob ject of using the action of the committee to operate upon the pending elections for the southe-n conventions, Mr. Davis offered the following resolution, which lies over with the others: That it shall be declared by amendment of the constitution that property in slaves, recognized as such by the local law of any of tho States of the Union, shall stand on the same footing in all constitutional and federal relations as any other species of property so recognized; and, like other property, shall not' be subject to be divested or impaired by the local law of any other state, either in escape thereto, or by the transit or sojourn of the owner therein. And in no case whatever shall such property be subject to be di vested or impaired by any legislative act of the United States, or any of the terri tories thereof. Washington Cor. N.

Mr. Benjamin, of La., will open the discussion in the Senate. A call for a convention of the border slave States is being signed by the Sena tors of those States, to be held in Baltimore in February. Vice President Breckinridge favors such convention. It is said that Gen. Scott states that had he been in Mnj. Anderson's place ho would have acted as he did, in evacuating Fort Moultrie. The General further declares that if the President orders the removal of the Major, or the evacuation of Fort Moultiie, he the General will at once throw up his commission. Ex-Got. 8teele, of New Hampshire, has just arrived at Washington from an extended lour through North Carolina, and reports that the mountaineers of that Stale are not thoroughly tinctured with secessionist!!, but that the feeling is spreading rapidly, with no effort to cheek it. The navy-yard at Wasuington is very poorly protected, and could be readily taken by the secession roughs. Northern members of Congress return" from a brief holiday sojourn among their constituent, with lmkboucs materially tiffiptd.

The Illinois State Journal, published at Springfield, and edited by a nephew of the President elect, published on Tuesday an article under the head, "The Republican Parly stands by the Ccnstitution." The Journal says that tbe Republican party wants no legislation that does not square with the constitution, but insists that the constitution must be respected and the laws enforced. It publishes thti oath taken by the President of the United States upon his inauguration, and tayi Mr. Lincoln ' will not try to evade the performance of bis duties, however painful, under certain circumstances, these duties may be, by a sophistical construction of the constitution. 8worn faithfully to execute the laws, he will do it." The Jour nal says further that Mr. Lincoln will en. force the laws in all sections, and "will doubtless, construe his oath of office to' mean that it is his duty to enforce all the laws, and not one particular law alone," On the secession question, the Journal says' the Republicans occupy the Jacksonian position, and Mr. Lincoln ".tnnds there.".. Some strong expressions from Jackson' message of Jan 16, 1833, are quoted and the Journal concludes by saying: "The Republican party is, we are satis- j lied, planted immovably on Jackson's J gronnd. The Democracy of the North '' cannot well occupy any other. We think-it might as well get abroad among th people that the incoming administration ' will be constitutional, anti secession, and law-enforcing. Pass the word. A Great Change in Georgia. -J Times change, and men wiib thern" Two weeks ngo we estimated the vote n ' our January Convention as probably 169 for immediate secession, to 130 against.-, it.

We do i not believe, from present indications, that one hundred and forty immediate se '" cessjonists can possibly be elected ' to the Convention, uuless ' soma ' great and unforeseen revulsioa takes place. ' By immediate secessionists we mean ihoisj " who are pledged to carry Georgia out of " the Union as soon as the Convention meets without waiting lo make any further at tempt at adjustment of oar trouble!: x ' Many of these designed to take Georgia" ' . out Dy tne action oi tue legislature, ana., tu make ner tbe leader ol the secession t .1. i . a . .. movement, out tney were aeieatea oy tn , sober-minded and cautious. .
