e. Mr. Mr. Wise said if the distinction which the gentleman made was not a distinction without a difference, he might act upon his suggestion. The Constitution made all the forts, arsenals; magazines, and dockyards, National. There was no such thing as a "local" fort.-- There was no difference in the two forts mentioned by the gentleman; and Fort Pickens, located in the same State. The rule that required the evacuation of one fort required the evacuation of all. Mr. Baldwin, of Augusta, moved to amend the amendment by inserting after the word "ought," the words "in the interests of peace." Mr. Baldwin said that he had understood the gentleman from Princess Anne to indicate that the object of his amendment was peace, and he desired that it should so appear in the resolution. Mr. Wise suggested that the phraseology be changed so as to make the amendment to the amendment read "for purposes of pacifi cation." Mr. Baldwin adopted the suggestion, and Mr. Wise accepted the

Mr. Brown, of Preston, was in favor of action with out delay. If it was the design of the Convention to refuse the act of justice demanded by the West, they ought to know it. Mr. Chambliss, of Greenville, was willing to meet his Western friends at the proper time in a spirit of kindness; but he appealed to them to let the important Federal questions be acted on first. No injustice was intended towards them. He was in favor of the amendment offered by Mr. Seawell.

In reply to a question asked by Mr. Summers, Mr. Wise declared that he was ready for secession the moment any one of the forts was reinforced; and not only that, but he was ready now to leave his seat and march to the aid to South Carolina, a dispatch having been just revealed that the battle had commenced. (This declaration created a visible sensation throughout the hall, and a disposition to applaud was quite manifest.) Mr. Summers said he was not prepared to make a repattempt to starve out Maj. Anderson, and said that if the attempt of the Federal Government to supply him with provisions was to be a cause of war, he called upon the whole world to look down with an eye of condemnation upon the proceeding of South Carolina, and claimed that it was the duty of Virginia to help keep Maj. Anderson alive until pending difficulties are adjusted. Mr. Rives' amendment was then voted down — ayes 35, noes 60. Mr. Wisesaid he had offered his own amendment for t

Pending the consideration of the subject, the hour of half-past 10 arrived, and the Convention went into Committee of the whole, Mr. Southall in the chair, for the purpose of considering the report of the Committee on Federal Relations. The 12th resolution was taken up, and Mr. Armstrong, of Hampshire, moved to amend by inserting the words "within the jurisdiction of the seceded States," after the words "United States," (11th line.)
