He therefore moved that the Committee rise. Negatived. Mr. Stuart, of Doddridge, was in favor of the Peace Conference propositions, but would vote against them in Committee, since they made no protest against coercion, nor did they provide for a Border Conference. He desired, however, that the majority reporrshall, Marye, Sr., Maslin, Masters, Miller, Moffett, Morris, Morton, Moore, Neblett, Nelson, Orrick, Osburn, Parks, Pendleton, Preston, Price, Pugh, Richardson, Robert E.

tion of interest, but as a question of principle, and proceeded to demonstrate that the Western people would in a few years pay into the State Treasury every dollar that had been appropriated to them, while in the East the tax upon slaves scarcely 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 ge

Mr. Scott, of Fauquier, nominated Hon. Wm. Ballard Preston, of the county of Montgomery. There being no other nomination, Mr. Preston was unanimously elected as one of the Commissioners.

Methodist clergyman of Rappahannock county, Va., at the solicitation of many influential men, is forming a volunteer company to meet the invading foe. The Kentucky Senate has passed a bill suspending the civil courts till January, and ordering all executions issued since January last to be re-issued and returnable next March; Major W. H. C. Whiting having been ordered to Harper's Ferry, has resigned his position as Inspector General of Coast Defences in North Carolina. Hon. A. H. H. Stuart recommends an undivided vote upon the part of Virginia in favor of the ratification of the Ordinance of Secession. It is said that Ben McCulloch, of Texas has received an appointment of Brigadier General in the Confederate Army. Augusta is the banner county of the State, having eleven companies already in the field, and two more forming. Any quantity of troops from Arkansas and Louisiana arrived at Lynchburg on Thursday.

serted would be the case, that there was no free expression of sentiment. In reply we point (before we have received the returns) to the Valley. We take out a single county and point to Augusta. Augusta was pre-eminently the Union county of the State. Her vote for strictly Union candidates was nearly unanimous. She polled 3,394 votes for reference to 263 in opposition to it. Col. Baldwin, one of her delegates, was designated by way of distinction as the "champion of the Union." The Hon. A. H. H. Stuart, another of the ablest and warmest of the extreme Union men in the Convention, was another of her delegates. Out of a population of 26,000, there are only 5,000 slaves in the county. Breckinridge in the Presidential election only received some 218 votes. The old Whig majority in the county was from 600 to 1,000.--There are not, perhaps, twenty men of the original disunion school among the whole body of voters. Now, we think it probable Augusta has voted almost unanimously for se

easons of Statepolicy should require a different order. The debate on this motion was protracted and occasionally warm, many members, including Hon. A. H. H. Stuart, opposing its adoption, either on grounds of State economy or personal comfort. Mr. A. R. Blakey especially vindicated the rights of the press to publish and cricancies on committees occasioned by the withdrawal of absence of members, gave rise to the principal discussion of the day. It was first submitted by Mr. A. H. H. Stuart, but was limited to the vacaney on his committee, caused by the resignation of Mr. Summers and subsequently made general by an amendment from another member. Messrs. Anelee, A. H. H. Stuart and Goggin chiefly took part in the quite exciting debate which followed. The motion and its amendment were lost by a large majority. Various resolutions relative to the financial condition of the State, the bonds of the Southern Confederacy and the Banks, were referred to the Finance Committee.

battery in the road, but screened from sight by a small house and by woods.--The Confederate battery on the right and close to the road opened on the U. S. battery and on the column in its rear. The U. S. battery replied, and columns of U. S. troops wheeled to the right and left, circled around the position of the Confederates, and assaulted it on the right and left. On the right of the Confederates there was a route line of defence consisting of a battery of one howitzer, supported by Colonel Stuart's battalion entrenched on the right, and a company of North Carolina infantry entrenched on the left.--The howitzer becoming spiked by the breaking of a priming wire, was run back into the bushes, and the infantry supports retired.--The outer line being lost, the U. S. troops approached and opened a heavy fire of musketry on the Confederates concentrated on the hill at the Church; but owing to the thick growth of woods intervening, the fire was not effective. At the same time the left o

rot gun belched forth a shot which took effect on the column in the road and did considerable damage; this was replied to by the enemy from their gun in the road, and replied to by Captain Brown's Battery in the field. The action then became general, and the deafening roar of the guns was all that could be heard for an hour — our shot taking good effect, that of the other side not having hit a single man or gun, all being aimed too high, doing great damage among the boughs of the trees. Col. Stuart's command were placed fifty yards on the right of Capt. Brown's Battery, to serve as a protection to them, and we soon saw the approach of a company of Zouaves of a New York Regiment, advancing under cover of some nouses, and a large orchard to the right of the field. The Virginia Life Guard were ordered to rise and shoot them, as our position had not been discovered; the men of the first platoon rose, and taking deliberate aim, fired; the shots had good effect, 7 of the Zouaves falling,
