rdnance Department, was amended and passed. House bill appropriating one million of dollars for State defence, was considered and amended, but no vote taken thereon. In the House, a bill was reported for changing the names of the three State Lunatic Asylums; also, one incorporating the Richmond and Liverpool Packet Company. The House laid on the table certain coercion resolutions adopted in the Ohio Legislature on the 12th instant, which were transmitted to the Executive of this State, with directions to lay them before the Virginia Legislature. Gov. Letcher's rebuke of the Black Republican Governor of Ohio, and his scathing commentary on the military resources and strength of that State, will be found in the proceedings of the House. A bill was passed allowing the people of Henrico to decide by vote on the question of taxation for arming themselves. A resolution was introduced to amend the Code, so as more effectually to suppress the circulation of incendiary publications.

To the Voters of Henrico. Since the passage of the Bill providing for the call of a Convention of the people of Virginia, I have been approached by many of you with the inquiry whether I would consent to serve in that body as the delegate from this county; and only yesterday a communication to the same effect, asking an expression of my views upon the questions which will engage its deliberations, appeared in the public prints, emanating, as I am informed from sources entitled to my most s upon this momentous question. How far events may modify them, it is impossible now to foresee. But they are expressed to you as I entertain them. If you should think proper to call me to the great trust which some of you desire me to fill. I shall endeavor so to guide my course as to preserve and restore the Union, if possible; but, at all hazards, to protect and defend Virginia. Very respectfully, Your fellow-citizen, J. B. Young.

$20 reward --I will give $20 reward for the return of my Negro man, "Washington," who left my house, in the lower part of Henrico county, on the morning of the 17th inst., without leave or provocation. Washington is about five feet 8 or 9 inches high, very black, about twenty years old, and has very white teeth, and smiles very pleasantly when spoken to. He will probably have a forged pass in his possession, as he can read and write. I will give the above reward for his return to me at my house, or if he is secured in jail so that I can get him.
