I wish you and your men to stay with me as couriers, and assigned me with four men to go with Colonel Baylor, commanding the Stonewall brigade, who was to make the advance on the works. We advanced through the woods to the top of the same ridge I had been on in th with skirmishers well out to the front, and reported to Stonewall (who was back hurrying up troops) that we were ready to advance. The order came, Advance. Colonel Baylor gave the order, Forward! The skirmishers moved across the field, the line of battle following. The enemy were not yet seen, but we expected to meet them in the next field. Not a shot was fired. Just as our skirmishers got over the fence, and as we with line of battle got to the fence, here came a courier to Colonel Baylor from Jackson to halt. There we stood possibly fifteen or twenty minutes, when another courier came from Jackson ordering the line of battle to fall back to the r

d Shelburne was provoked into saying that he never would serve with any man who would consent to its independence, when in truth independence was become the only way to peace. The menaces of the proclamation were a confession of weakness. The British army under Clinton could hold no part of the country, and only ravage and destroy by sudden expeditions. Towards the end of Sept. September Cornwallis led a foray into New Jersey; and Major-General Grey with a party of infantry, surprising Baylor's light horse, used the bayonet mercilessly against men that sued for quarter. A band led by Captain Patrick Ferguson in October, Oct. after destroying the shipping in Little Egg harbor, spread through the neighboring country to burn the houses and waste the lands of the patriots. On the night of the fifteenth they surprised light infantry under Pulaski's command; and, cumbering themselves with no prisoners, killed all they could. In November a large party of Indians with bands of Nov.

ile Norfolk would become a rival of New York. In conclusion, he thanked the Convention for the patience with which he had been listened to. Mr. Morton spoke more than two hours, and the foregoing is but a mere outline of his remarks. Mr. Baylor, of Augusta, next took the floor. He said he was glad that almost every gentleman who had spoken had disclaimed party politics. It was on that ground that he came to be elected; for he represented a county where the party to which he had belo as in it — he believed it had been said today — that Virginia ought not to hesitate, but go out at once. He believed he heard the gentleman from Orange say this, and he asked him if he understood him right. Mr. Morton.--You did, sir. Mr. Baylor.--Go out for what? He wanted gentlemen to state their reasons. Nothing had been said yet sufficient to satisfy him that there was any good reason for it. He admitted that the Union was already dissolved --that six or seven links in the great
The Convention. A resolution offered yesterday by Colonel Richardson, of Hanover, seeking further information relative to the military force of the State, was laid on the table, but will probably be called up at a convenient opportunity. The consideration of Mr. Moore's resolutions on the National troubles was resumed, and Mr. Morton made a forcible secession speech, in the course of which he alluded, in no complimentary terms, to the resolutions adopted by the Peace Conference at Washington. Mr. Baylor, of Augusta, afterwards commenced a speech on the "Union" side of the question, and will conclude to-day. It was rumored yesterday that the Committee on Federal Relations were ready to make a report, but nothing of the sort transpired.
The Convention. A number of resolutions were offered yesterday, and referred to the Committee on Federal Relations; among them one by Mr. Garland, contemplating the passage of an ordinance submitting the question to the vote of the people, whether they will remain with the North, or secede and unite with the Southern States; and another by Mr. Dorman, for a vote of the people of all the States, on the question of Union or Disunion, on the basis of the Peace Conference proposition. Mr. Baylor concluded his Union speech, and endorsed the proposition emanating from the Conference at Washington, which was subsequently denounced by Mr. Goode, of Mecklenburg, who has the floor for to-day. An animated debate sprang up on a resolution offered by Mr. Sheffet, inviting the Virginia Commissioners to the Conference to address the Convention, at their convenience, and to occupy seats on the floor. A substitute, offered by Mr. Price, merely inviting the Commissioners to seats, was finally a
rred. Unfinished Business. The Convention then proceeded to the consideration of unfinished business — the resolution of Mr.Moore,of Rockbridge. Mr.Baylorof Augusta, being entitled to the floor, resumed his remarks. He had never been able to see any good reason why Virginia should secede at all-much less before theion of those who called themselves conservatives to pour out the vials of wrath upon the heads of the Southern States. In reply to the gentleman from Augusta, (Mr. Baylor,) who had spoken of the Peace Conference propositions in terms of commendation, he said that he hoped it would never be accepted by the people. His own constit The call being sustained, the vote was taken with the following result: Yeas.--Messrs. Jauney, (President,) Aston. Baldwin, A. M. Bathour, J.

f some "miserable Southern Confederacy." Secession destroys our nationality. The flag which has waved in triumph and protected our commerce all over the world, would no longer be as a shield to our people wherever they might be. He knew the Southern States had gone, but if Virginia stands fast, the wanderers may be eventually brought back, and the Union restored. In conclusion he returned his thanks for the attention which had been given to his remarks. Personal explanation. Mr. Baylor arose to a personal explanation, and proceeded to correct a misrepresentation of his remarks a few days ago, in some newspaper, (the reporter could not hear the name,) relative to the responsibility of the Black Republicans for the John Brown raid. He had not said that Black Republican men were not responsible for it, but that the party was not. The Chicago platform did not endorse the John Brown raid, but denounced it. If they had endorsed it in their platform, they never could have elec
