tute for the Convention bill, asking Congress to call a National Convention, was lost--104 to 12. Mr. Lacey's amendment for the original bill submitting the action of the Convention to the people was then adopted, and the bill passed.--105 to 17,--all the Republican delegation from St. Louis, except one, voting in the negative. Message of the Governor of Kentucky. In his message to the Legislature of Kentucky, Governor Magoffin asks an expression of Legislative approbation of Crittenden's resolution, says that eight States will have seceded before their deliberations close, and that Tennessee has referred the whole subject to her people. Virginia and North Carolina are discussing the propriety of a similar course. Missouri seems likely to adopt a similar policy. It submits to the Legislature the propriety to provide for the election of delegates to a Convention, to assemble at an early day, to determine the future inter. State and Federal relations of Kentucky. Meanw

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.the secession feeling on the increase. Hampden Sidney, Va., Jan. 19, 1861. Although this is a most conservative and temperate neighborhood, the secession feeling is greatly on the increase. Our last hope of maintaining our rights in the Union was centred in Senators Crittenden and Douglas, and the result of their efforts has greatly strengthened the secession party here, and weaned many Union-loving sons from their unnatural mother. A magnificent flag spans the street at the Court-House; cockades are numerous, and the students of the College have organized a military company, under a Captain who received his military training at a Connecticut Military Institute; and if their services are needed, we will guarantee the Yankee agitators a warm reception at their hands. Rutherford.

foundation that it could never again be shaken. These amendments would not in reality change the Constitution, they would only have the effect of restoring it, by the added propositions, to what it was in point of fact on the day of its adoption, through the operation of the circumstances which then surrounded it, and which erected barriers against the present sectional contest then, as the constitutional propositions would now.--If a constitutional majority cannot be united in support of Crittenden's resolutions, or the substance of them, then a dissolution of the Union is inevitable. The report recommends that steps be taken for calling a Convention of the States, with a view of peaceable separation by providing for a partition of the common property of the United States, settling the terms on which social and commercial intercourse between the separated States shall be conducted, and making a permanent arrangement with respect to the navigation of the Mississippi river.

The New Jersey Legislature. Trenton, Jan. 19. --The majority of the Joint Committee on National Affairs, reported a series of resolutions to the Senate, fully endorsing the Crittenden resolutions, and instructing the Senators of the State in Congress, and requesting the Representatives to support them. They will be discussed next week and passed by both Houses, no doubt. The committee also call upon Congress to order a National Convention in case Crittenden's or similar measures are not speedily adopted.

immediately communicate the result to the Executive of this Commonwealth, to be by him laid before the Convention of the People of Virginia and the General Assembly Provided, That the said Commissioners be subject at all times to the control of the General Assembly, or, if in session, to that of the State Convention. 5. Resolved, That in the opinion of the General Assembly of Virginia, the propositions embraced in the resolutions presented to the Senate of the United States by the Hon. John J. Crittenden, so modified as that the first article proposed as an amendment to the Constitution of the United States shall apply to all territory of the United States now held or hereafter acquired south of latitude 36 deg. 30 min., and provide that slavery of the African race shall be effectually protected as property therein during the continuance of the territorial government, and the fourth article shall secure to the owners of slaves the right of transit with their slaves between and thr
