City of Janesville. Danr I EGO. Official Paper of the City. The rusaor, by ttlagrapb; ysstertny, the authority of th N. Y.

Timw correapoa-dent, that the government had giren orders to surrender Fort Moultrie, if attacked, is not confirmed to day aod we hope is sot correct If each orders had been gt en, vc think some mention would have been made of it in the Washington news of to-day. The TmUn 1 Sneaker Ksnm. We hare received from a correspondent at Monroe, in this state, a slip from a Mound City, E. T. paper, containing the proceed ings, of a public meeting of the citizens of Linn and Bourbon counties, giving an ac count of the origin of the recent troubles in southern Kansas.

The resolutions of tbis meeting state that the reports of bloodshed and robbery grew, oot of the fact of the execution of three persona, the arrest of three, and the trial of two others. Ru. Binds and Samuel Scott, were bang, nud L. D. Moore was abet.

J. M. Hoffuagle, Dustin, Scott, were arrested, submitted to trial and in default of sufficient evidence of guilt, were released, and John McDonald was arrested, but released without a formal trial. These persons were not arrested, tried and executed by a email party of ruffians, outlaws and crimiual adventurers, but by a committee of the citizens of Linn and Bonrbon counties. The statement of Judge Williams, aud other fugitive United States officials, and all others, which differ from theabove facts, are pronounced willful and unmit-lasted falsehoods, entitling their authora to the contempt of every honest citizen.

The meeting justified these executions, oa account of the plottings of those who were executed, to murder and assassinate citizens, and because of the slow and inef-detent administration of the laws. They declare that they will not commence hostilities against any legally constituted authority, bat will defend themselves against all violence, as the exigences of the case may demand. Ou Monroe correspondent says he is acquainted with Judge Williams and that he is an arrant paltroon, having in 1850, run away from the village where he lived because he was afraid of the cholera. He says His absconding from the of danger at Fort Scott, and his reports of murder and blood and thunder were only a second edition of his cowardice in 1850, and his awful yarns on that occasion, when he spread the most exaggerated reports of i the scourge of God ou bis coward path to the interior of Iowa," were characteristic of the individual. A Succession or Aitmctioss.

Election-week was a trying oris to our Larra-bee." He was badly beaten at the polls on Tuesday. Wednesday ha had a personal set to" in Milwaukee, and came out sec- ond best. Thursday he slipped from the roof of his house in Horicon and tried thi; aolidity of the ground on which the house is built. Such a rapid succession of afflictions ought to exempt him from any future calamity. Ear the Dally Gnxette.

Messrs. Editors i In these times that try men's spinal column, when slavery propagandists at the south are threatening to batter down the Union, that slavery may rnn rampant over the territories, and their sympathisers, aiders and abettors, at the north, are holding meetings and bringing every immaginable force to bear on weak kneed republicans, to induce then to sacrifice their principles, or in doughface phraseology to sacrafice their party to save their country," and when some repub lican are unmistakable signs of weakness tn the aforesaid spinal region; would it not be well to hold a meeting here in Rock county, if they hold one no where else, and give an expression by those who don't believe that the election of Lincoln, nor the suppression of the African slave trade, cor yet the personal liberty bills of northern states, are sufficient cause for a dissolution of the Union My opinion is that each meeting should be held in all the northern states. It would sustain those who are strong, stiffen those who are weak, and give doughfaces and traitors, both north and soutb, to understand distinctly, that we do not propose to compromise away that for which we have fought so hard to win. Let as stand forth and tell those legitimate sons of tory sires in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, South Carolina, Georgia and elsewhere, that they can neither destroy the Union nor carry slavery into the territories with our consent, nor dictate to us until they subdue oa.

Charleston, Dec. 209 P. M. The cbair announced the committee to draft a summary of causes for the secession of South Carolina; also four standing committees. Mr.

Rhett's resolution, for a committee of thirteen, to provide for the assemblage oi tue seceuing states, aua for a constitution, was adopted. Air. lngaus reported toe following oral-We. the Deoolo of South Carolina, in con sultation assembled, do declare and ordain that the ordinance adopted by us in the convention on the 23d ot May, 1778, whereby the constitution of the United States was ratified and all acts and parts of acts of the general assembly of the state, rati- hereby repealed. The Union now' sub-ttinir between South Carolina and other states under the name of the United States of America, 11 hereby dissolved.

The ordinance was passed unanimously, by 169 members, at quarter past one. The news spread rapidly, aJnd a crowd collected, which did some immense cheer- the ordinance was ordered to Le engrossed Darchment and is to be sirnied br the president and members at half past six o'clock this evening, at the Institute Hall, and to be placed in the archives of the state. In the debate on the adoption of the ordinance, McGrath said: What you have done to day has extinguished the authority ot every man in ooum uaronna aenvmg his authority from the general government. I am in favor of this body making such provisional arrangements as may be necessary in the interval which exists between this moment and the time the legislature may act, I am not, however, to be implicated in tho idea that there is no lawful au thority within the limits ot the state except the general government. Mr.

Gregg thought all (he laws of congress should fall instantly to the ground. Mr. Cheever said an immense chasm had been made in the law; it is necessary to avoid the inconveniences to the people, and must make temporary arrangements to carry oa the government. Mr. Gretrn There is no law on the sub ject of the collection of duties in Carolina.

States as no looser our government. It will be for our legislature to say what laws of the United owws snail oe continued, ana what not. the federal government. All the postofflce laws fall to the ground on our dissolution with that government. Mr.

Miles We have to deal with stern facts and realities. We must prevent confusion, anarcbv and derangement of- our government officers. Things must for the will arise. Mr. Hayoe thought sadden action injuri- Mr.

Cbesnut We must revive by such laws as are nest 10 preserve us irotu Mr. 3f oGrath thought the present postal system nuisance, He thought the public would be better served br private parties.

It had already received the signatures of many influential citizens. Washington, Dec. 21. The senate committee on the crisis met to-day, and had a free interchange of opinion, during which Mr. Douglas said that he was ready to unite in recommending such amendments to the constitution as would take the slavery question out of congress, in view of the danger which threatened the republic with disunion, revolution and civil war.

He was prepared to act in the matters in controversy without regard to his previous action, and as if he never had made a speedh or given a vote on the sub ject. sen. oigier, woo is ou tue committee, nas been for some days maturing a plan by which the slavery question, by the amendment to the constitution, may be removed from congressional control, meets the approbation of distinguished gentlemen.

For tbt Daily Gutlte. I have read with much surprise, as I doubt not others, who supposed they knew something of the history of our revolutionary struggle, have, the article in your issue of Thursday evening, signed Layman." And inasmuch as "Fax" is challenged to give the name of one Episcopal clergyman who opposed the revolution of 1776, 1 ask a little space to answer the challenge. There are many copies of the Documentary History of the state of New York in this city. This work was published under the authority of the legislature of that state and has the highest claims to historical truth. Oq the 1040th page of the third volume of that work commences a long letter, written by Rev.

Charles Ingtis, then rector of Trinity Church in New York city, to a clergyman of the Church of England, entitled "State of the Anglo-American Church." The letter bears date "New York, Oct. 31, 1776." I will make a few extracts sufficient to show its general drift. I have the pleasure to assure you that all the italics are the author's the societies missionaries, without excepting one, in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, and so far as I can learn, in the other New England colonies, have proved themselves faithful loyal subjects in -these trying times and have to tho utmost of their power opposed the spirit of disaffection and rebellion which has involved this continent in the greatest calamities. I must add that all the other clergy of our church in the above colonies, though not in the society's service, have observed the same Hue of conduct." He goes on to charge that one principal reason for the rebellion, as he terras it, was a desire to bring about the destruction of the Church of England (tho Episcopal church) in the colonies, and says: "I have it from good authority that the Presbyterian ministers, at a synod where most of them in the middle colonies were collected, passed a resolve to support the continental con gress in all their measures. This and this only can account for the uniformity of their conduct for I do not know one of them, nor have I been able, after strict inquiry, to hear of any, who did not, by preaching and every effort in their power, promote all the measures of the congress, wever extra v- The present rebellion is certainly one of the most causeless, unprovoked, and unnatural that ever disgraced any country." After speaking of the steady opposition made to the revolutionary measures by some, he says "It is but justice to add that those instances were exhibited by the members of our church there is cot one of the clergy in the provinces I have specified, of whom this may not be affirmed and very few of the laity who were respectable or men of property, have joined the rebellion." Tbe letter is long and all to the same import.

Enough has been quoted to prove the ignorance of "Layman" in respect at least to one branch of history. It is true that General Washington was a communicant of the Episcopal church. But that church was then as now, divided into two parties, best known, perhaps, by the titles, High Church and Low Church," as now, but the points of difference were in the main the same. The "high" party wished an American Bishop, while the other, to which belonged Washington and most of the Episcopal church in Virginia, opposed the measure. The first Episcopal Bishop for the United States was consecrated sometime after the date of this letter, in Scotland, by some non-juring bishops, he not being able to obtain consecration in England.

Washington was. in the frequent habit, tho' an Episcopalian, of attending the services of ministers of other churches and of re ceiving the sacrement from them. ANOTHER LAYMAN. Important from Russia. A St.
