The Convention re-assembled at 4 o’clock.
Mr. WISE resumed his argument designed to demon
itnte that the Commonwealth of Virginia has never
urted with her sovereignty, lie closed with tho follow
ug remarks:
As far as I am concerned I mean to wait a reasonable
•,me and long. 1 mean to briug down pretensions and
•Uims of right as far as safety and honor permit me.—
I mean to go along with you, according to the Constitu
;ion, according to law, according to State and Federal
(tatutes, to guide, guard, and regulate us all in our de
liberations, in our results, in our fi'ial action. But after
i reasonable time has passed, or, when our demauds are
brought down so low that I could not even prefer them
with self-respect; then, if no other man in the Common
wealth raises the flsg of Revolution, / will, as high
idoft as I can make it tlauut in Heaven’s air. “If that
be treason, make the most of it.”
The discussion of the question of State Sovereignty
was continued by Messrs. Macfarland and Wise, until
after C o’clock, when
Mr. SLA WELL proposed to amend the amendment by
adding the word “sovereign,” which was accepted by Mr.
Montague. Mr. S., then addressed the Convention in
advocacy of the amendment.
Mr SCOTT, of Powhatan, then obtained the floor, but

reasons I shall oppe«e every effort to take up, (or con

UNITED STATES SENATE—EXTRA SESSION.
Washington, March 20.
William nitkey, the newly appointed secretary of the
8jpate, was sworn in, and euteied upon his duties.
The Senate then took up the Douglas resolution, and
Mr. Breckinridge proceeded to address that body. He
had some doubts at first with regard to voting for the re
solution, but being desirous of learning the policy of the
Administration, he had concluded to sus'a ;j tt. Lie could
uot see where or in what puticular the Republican pi rty
h id abandoned the principles of tho Chicago platform.—
The extreme Southern States had not discovered it, the
B-rder States had faded to secure any compromise, and
even the party itself could uo*. tell wherein they had
sn-riticcd the least of their principles.
Tr.e complaint which had sundered the Union was, that
the property of one-half ol th>- Union could not obtain
protection. There was not a Senator on lire other ei.Jc
who would agree to give the Sbuth un equal share of the
territories. They could not cure existing evils by trying
n> deceive themseives or others as to the true issue.—
Ti ey have been sitting since the 4 th oi March, looking
at a dismembered country, at the consolidated power ol
the Southern Confederacy, and at t!-c discontents in the
Border States, but no word of conciliation or arrange
ment came from the other side.
Unless in a short time the Northern people agree to
give the South her equality, they would either drift into
civil strife or have to enter into a treaty with the sece
ded States. The adoption of the Crittenden resolutions
at the last session would have retained all the Southern
States except South Carolina, hut unless in six months
the demands of the border States wore met, the trouble
would end in war. or settle itself by the withdrawal of
State after Slate from the Federal Union.
lie believed the constitution of the Confederate States
wia in accordance with the true spirit of the original in
.-trument, and that at no distant day that might be the
larger Confederacy. He thought it strange that after a
session of three weeks during a crisis like this, the Pre-si
dent had communicated to no nu mber of the Seuate
the nature of hia policy. He appealed to Senators on
the other side to express their views, and not sit silent
and allow the country to drift into civil war. They on
the democratic side were powerless. Whatever was done
should con v from the r* publicans.
Mr. Douglas said he intended no arraignment of the
motives or conduct of the Senator from Ketnucky. He
st i; contended that under the bill organizing territories
a' the last pession, the p 'oph- of the South had the right
to enter the territmies. The Republicans had abandoned
the Wilraot Proviso and adopt d hi* doctrine of non-in
terveniion, which he had aJvocated for so many years —
The Southern S,at°j now in the Union had therefore no
inst ctuse of complaint. He was therefore- apprised that
the Senator from Kentucky had denied his (Douglas’; po
si ion*. and had contended that tin- R-p iMicaus had not
yielded one iou of their oHectionable views.
lie (Mr. Br-'ikinridge) had stated the terms upon which
aloi e the horaei States would remain in the Union, and
•it n Pii-t there wx* no hiq, * ol their getting those terras.
Oi hi» part, he held that b -mucky bt}d <;{! the justice
and equality sb- iiad ev'-r demanded, und the Senator
hv! not undertik n to dispror • tils assertion- In fact,
tin South tad all south of :’.7 degrees, inst ad of M. 3'i,
a i!alf ad-gee more than proposed iu the Crittenden
-ropo-itions. If the S u-ator’i view was correct that the
• gion dei l i th . • * on lor all lime f« r
( ill - Territories, then th* v were ali open to the South.
If the :esti-ja h_<J t? be decided by the court, a* it

Mr. Breckinridge denied that he bad committed any

Tha N V i . that it.is new
seriously endangered, mid dropping for the time its riui

“As things now are, the firosjxcte for the commerce of

cry of alarm from all classes ot our citizens, h or wo

While New York is thus frightened, the South is rapid

AFFAIRS AT THE SOUTH.
An official order has been issued which tlnilly dlspoa
s ol the subject of tho evacuation of Fort Sumter. Mttj.
Lndcrson has been ordered to Newport (Ky.) Barracks,
a superintendent of the western department of the ar
ny. As this is an official order, the evacuation of Fort
lumfer may be considered a 1 Axed fact."
Captain John Willis, ot Vicksburg, has signiAed his in
ention to present $1.0<H) to each of tho volunteer com
tanlea in that city which tendered their services to the
State of Mississippi.
Reports from Montgomery state that by the 1st of
April tbcro will be Avc thousand troops of the Southern
Confederacy concentrated around Pensacola. The New
Means Delta says it is believed iu New Orleans “that the
lute troops would be called into active service at Pen
tacola, and that the volunteer troops would be detailed
us an army of reserve, while the independent companies
ind battalions would be ordered to the local posts, now
indcr command of the State. We are not at present au
;horized to speak in detail on this sufjact, though we are
n possession of the facts."
A new regiment of three hundred men enrolled at
New Orleans for service at Pensacola is commanded by
"apt. Alfred Coppens, who served in the fifty-third regi
ment of the infantry of the line of France, and acquired
t high reputation. The officers of the regiment arc al
ready enrolled. Its system, drill and uniform will be that
af the regular French Zouaves, and their comnuuds will
he given in the French language.
AFFAIRS AT PENSACOLA.
A letter dated Pensacola, March ltvh, says:
“Fort Pickens u in a state of admirable defence—the
guns glisten in the sun, as a warning monitor not to ap
proach it on a fostile mission. Lieutenant Slommcr, with
his gartison, is able, not oulv to repulse all attacks, but
as Pickens commands all the forts and batteries iu the
hands of the State troops, he is also able to silence thtm
in an incredibly short space of lime."
We also see" it stated that nil the ships of the home
squadron arc out of provisions. Only for the energy and
enterprise of Captain Adams, of the Sabine, they wou’d
have had to leave Florida altogether. Since the vessels
arrived at Pensacola, not a line had been received from
the Navy Department. The steamer can get no wood and
water. A “smuggler from Pensacola" was selling water
at four cents a gallon. The officers and crews o! the en
tire fleet are told off, to land at a signal from IJeutenant
Slemtner.
Richard Jfildretb, of New York, the well known histo
rian, has been selected hj the President for the consulate
»t Tripoli. His health has been very bad of late, and be
iesires to try upon it the • ft'-ct of that climate.
