quier, that if this Union could not be safely reconstructed, the destiny of Virginia was with the South; and he hoped that it would find a response in the mind of every member on this floor. The point of difference between them was whether we should have a Conference before or after the withdrawal of Virginia. He alluded to the appointment of Commissioners to the proposed Conference. Appointments by this Convention, he apprehended, would not represent the popular sentiment of the State.--Maryland would be represented by Commissioners appointed by the Governor, who, if not a Black Republican, was cousin-german to that party. He had little hope that any of the Border States would be represented in such a manner as to reflect the popular interest. He maintained that Virginia should act for herself in the emergency — secede first, and trust to co-operation afterwards. He did not doubt that if Virginia went out and joined the Southern Confederacy, the others would follow. Until, howe

She would then be strong enough to dictate terms to the North, and by no other method could she so surely aid in on passed--Mr. Wise voting "no." The fourth resolution was then read, as follows: 4. The Territories of the United States constitute a trust to be administered by the General Government, for the common benefit of the people of the United SUnited States, and any policy in respect to such Territories calculated to confer greater benefits on the people of one part of the United States than on the people of another part, is contrary to equality, and prejudicial to the rights of some for whose eqUnited States than on the people of another part, is contrary to equality, and prejudicial to the rights of some for whose equal benefit the trust was created.

paid the interest upon the sum paid for their protection. Millions upon millions of dollars had been appropriated to the East, through which the State was deeply in debt, and he claimed that the East should bear a due proportion of the tax. Mr. Stuart continued his remarks until half-past 10, when the Convention went into Committee of the Whole, For the purpose of considering the report of the Committee on Federal Relations--Mr. Southall in the chair. Mr. Richardson, of Hanover, resumed his remarks. He said that at the time of the adjournment last evening he was endeavoring to show that the proper place for Virginia was in the Southern Confederacy, and to answer, to the best of his ability, some of the arguments of gentlemen who took a different view of the matter. He proposed to show in his few remarks this morning the ruinous consequences to all the best interests of Virginia from delay. On this point he discussed the respective tariff systems of the two

ient, and it was idle to maintain that this system of defence would impoverish the Southern Confederacy. Mr. Richardson paid a just tribute to the men and scenes of the past. He would not consent to remain in a Confederacy where not only those great names, but the Southern people of the present day, were dishonored by the fiendish spirit of abolitionism. He would never consent to a reconstruction of the Union, except upon terms of perfect equality in every respect. Mr. Morton, of Orange, said that he had designed expressing his views in Committee of the Whole, but in the very limited time that remained for discussion he would have to confine himself to a brief glance at the questions at issue. He argued that the proposed division by the line of 3630 was not the equality of the Constitution; not the equality proclaimed by the Supreme Court in the Dred Scott decision. Such a compromise he deemed a sacrifice of Southern rights, if not of Southern honor. He would never conse

Southern honor. He would never consent to a reconstruction of the Union except on terms of perfect equality — equality from the foundation to the very capstone of the Government. He proceeded upon the position assumed by the gentleman from Fauquier, (Mr. Scott,) on yesterday, that the South would not be safe under any concessions of constitutional amendment coming from the North. A guarantee of political power was the only mode through which the South could protect herself, and the destiny of the Union, which the fathers contemplated, be worked out. The principle, he believed, should be applied to every department of the Government. He responded cordially to the sentiment advanced by the gentleman from Fauquier, that if this Union could not be safely reconstructed, the destiny of Virginia was with the South; and he hoped that it would find a response in the mind of every member on this floor.

had a right to complain of the hostile action of the General Government, notwithstanding the claim set up that Virginia had always sanctioned or ratified the measures of the Administration in respect to slavery. The report of the Harper's Ferry Committee showed that the North had for years been engaged in running off the property of the South, and citizens had been murdered in the attempt to execute the fugitive slave law. A few years ago, under Fillmore's Administration, a negro named Anthony Burns was brought back, but it required not only the whole military force of a State, but a large force of the General Government, involving an expense of some hundred thousand dollars to bring back a slave worth seven or eight hundred. Such was an illustration of public sentiment at the North. Should Virginia remain under such a Government as that? He went on to argue that the free-soil had been trespassing upon the slave property of the border, almost depleting the counties there, and thi
