he side of Union, the Northwest would yield the question of taxation. He knew nothing of such a bargain. He was not prepared to vote for a change in the organic law of the State, his people were interested in the great questions now agitating the nation; but he was willing to vote for a resolution to confide the subject to a committee. They could report at an adjourned session of the Convention, for it was pretty well understood that the Convention would adjourn over. Mr. Wilson, of Harrison, alluded to the constant charge of disloyalty and abolitionism, brought against the people of the Northwest. It was time it should be stopped. He admitted that there were abolitionists in that quarter of the State, but expressed his belief that there were more in the city of Richmond than in his whole Congressional district. It was his belief that if something were not done in regard to the taxation of slave property, there would be a conflict — not between sections of the State--but a d

flag, but advised them to take it down and erect it in a more suitable place.--Immediately about fifty students ascended the roof of the rotunda to carry out these instructions, and having collected in a knot on the house-top gave three cheers for President Davis and three for the flag. One of them climbed to the top of the vane, and having waved his cap and cheered to his satisfaction, descended covered all over with glory. While the flag was lowered, three groans were given for some one, and the large bell on the rotundo was tolled. The crowd having descended with the flag to the lawn, an indefinite number of cheers were given, and several speeches made in its praise. Finally, a choir struck up Dixie, and bore it away to parts unknown.--Not a Union voice was heard in the camp to-day. I was told that Dr. Harrison, who happened to be at the University to-day, waved his hat at the flag, and said "he did not know when Virginia would ever make herself respectable again." Fugle.

Wysor--61. So the motion to lay on the table was carried in the negative. The resolutions were then referred to the Committee on Federal Relations. Order of the day. The hour of 11 having arrived, the President announced that the Convention would go into Committee of the Whole, pursuant to order. Mr. Boyd, of Botetourt, asked leave to offer an amendment to the report of the Committee on Federal Relations, but objection was made by Mr. Hall, of Marion. Mr. Wilson, of Harrison, moved that the execution of the order be suspended, to give the gentleman from Marion, (Mr. Haymond,) an opportunity of finishing his speech on the question of taxation. The motion was decided in the negative. Committee of the Whole. The Convention then resolved itself into Committee of the Whole, (Mr. Southall, of Albemarle, in the Chair,) and proceeded to consider the reports from the Committee on Federal Relations.

Mr.Carlile, of Harrison, rose to correct the report of his remarks in the official organ of the Convention, the Richmond Enquirer. --He said he had written out his speech, and would publish it in the Richmond Whig. Claims for Services. Mr.Macfarland, of Richmond, from the Committee to audit claims against the Convention for services prior to its organization, made a report, which was adopted. Equality of taxation. The President announced that the subject pending before the Convention was the consideration of the resolutions offered on Monday last, by Mr. Willey, of Monongalia. Mr.Hall, of Marion, being entitled to the floor, supported the resolutions. The members of the Legislature from the West, he said, would never have voted for calling this Conventi

substitute. Is the Committee ready for the question? Voices.--"Question — question." Mr. Wise asked if the motion in this form would preclude another motion to strike out and insert. The Chair.--Certainly not. Mr. Wilson, of Harrison, had something which he desired to offer. He moved that the Committee rise. The Chair.--The motion is not in order.--The Committee has resolved to sit till 2 o'clock. Mr. Scott, of Fauquier, desired to present some views to the Commiten upon the motion to strike out. Mr. Price, of Greenbrier, and Mr. Conrad, of Frederick, appealed to the member from Preston to withdraw his call for a division, which he consented to do. Mr. Clemens, of Ohio, said, as the gentle-from Harrison, who offered the competing proposition, was absent, he hoped the Committee would withdraw the substitute, by general consent. This course was objected to. Some interrogatories were here propounded by Mr. Wise as to which report of the

y in the session, and now on the table, censuring Senators Mason and Hunter for their course in respect to the propositions. He hoped, since the evidence that had been adduced to-day that they were not acceptable to the Convention, that the mover would withdraw it, and introduce another, complimenting the Senators upon their action. He contended that Virginia ought no longer to be making propositions to the North, which had already turned a deaf ear to her entreaties. Mr. Carlile, of Harrison, said that years ago, in the National House of Representatives, he had the temerity to remark that those who voted in favor of the Kansas-Nebraska act would live to regret it. He would now say that those who voted against his substitute would live to regret it. He might, as in the former case, be subjected to years of obloquy, but would again trust to time to vindicate his position. He hoped gentlemen would make specifications. They had heaped abuse upon the propositions, but he had been

The Frankfort, Ky., correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette gives an account of the dispersion of the Convention there, which, it seems, was composed of delegates sent to nominate State officers in favor of peace.
