h the voice of the people as was that held in Virginia, in accordance with the following proposition of a leading paper in Richmond in the interest of the conspirators:--It being necessary to form a ticket of electors, and the time being too short to call a Convention of the people, it was suggested that the Richmond editors should prepare a ticket, thus relieving the people of the trouble of making selections. The ticket thus formed has been presented. Among the names we find those of Wm. L. Goggin, of Bedford, and R. T. Daniel, of Richmond; E. H. Fitzhugh, of Ohio County; John B.

Wm. L. Goggin, chairman of the committee appointed for the purpose, reported a series of resolutions, asserting that the time has come when the rights of Southern men and the dignity of Southern States demand the repeal of all obnoxious measures and laws enacted and adopted by Northern Statesause of the 5th Article thereof, to settle all questions of doubt, and it is suggested that such Convention, if called, be held as speedily as possible in the city of Lexington, in the State of Kentucky. The resolutions were advocated by Messrs. Goggin, Burwell and others, and unanimously adopted. The following, offered by Dr. R. A. Clement, was also adopted, with a few dissenting voices: Resolved, That having entire confidence in the integrity and patriotism of our Representatives in

Patriotic address. We have had on the for some days a very patriotic and able address from the Hon. Wm. L. Goggin, of Bedford, for which we have been unable to make room in cur columns. This fine address was delivered on the occasion of the departure of a volunteer company (the Wharton Artillery) for the seat of war. The ceremony took place on the 12th inst.; and the length of time that has elapsed is a reason for omitting now an account of it, even were our columns sufficiently relieved to give place to it. The address is honorable to its author for its noble sentiments of fealty to the State and to the South, and the spirit of chivalry and constancy in the national defense which pervades it.

ndent of the Atlanta Confederacy, (who is a member of one of the Georgia regiments,) furnishes that paper an interesting letter, in which the following sad and affecting incident is recorded: But often our hearts are almost rent by the ravages of a foe we cannot conquer. Many who have periled their lives in the thickest of the fight, and escaped one death, have fallen by the unseen shaft of disease. We were called to witness just such a scene on Friday last, in the death of Lieut. Wm. L. Goggin, Jr. A young man of noble daring, brave and chivalrous, the pride of his parents, and the favorite of the Lynchburg community, was suddenly snatched from them by this unseen power. He was at the engagement at Bull Run on the 18th, and also at Manassas on the 21st, in both of which he gallantly led on his comrades, and, though death was all around and about him, and men falling by scores, yet he escaped unhurt. Immediately after, he had an attack of typhoid fever, which ended his life.
