has nearly died away, and the people are settling down to their daily a vocations. There is a great disposition existing among the people here to submit to the election of Lincoln. I have not seen a single person yet who is in favor of disunion. They want to wait for the "overt act" before resorting to extreme measures. When Lincoln commits any act aggressive to the South, this section will not only furnish sentiment for disunion, but matter to aid in its accomplishment. A man named Price, a school teacher, living at Spartapolis, in this county, voted for Lincoln on the 6th inst. The next morning his school-house was deserted, and he found a note lying on his desk, requesting his absence from the county as soon as convenient. I understand he left the following day. In our neighboring county, Shenandoah, Lincoln received thirteen votes. This county is the residence of Geo. Rye, the Black Republican Elector for this district.

The Secretary was then directed to read the 8th resolution, but Mr. Price, of Greenbrier, moved that it be passed by for the present with a view of amending the 9th. The reading of the 8t exerted for the purpose of subjugating the people of such States to the Federal authority. The question being on Mr. Price's motion to pass by, Mr. Montague argued that it was contrary to the rules of the Committee. The yeas and nays wer, Marr, Marye, Sr., Maslin, Masters, Moffett, Moore.

Evening session. The Convention, in Committee of the Whole, (Mr. Price, of Greenbrier, in the chair,) proceeded to the consideration of amendments to the 8th section, proposed by Mr. Sneffey, of Smythe, and Mr. Campbell, of Washington county, both of which were lost. Mr. Summers, of Kanawha, proposed a further amendment, by striking out the words "they concede," in the third line, which was adopted. Mr. Montague, of Middlesex, moved to fill the blank thus created by inserting the words "they acknowledge." The amendment was lost — yeas 29, nays 90. Mr. Goode, of Bedford, moved to amend by inserting the words "they assert," in the place of the words "they concede," already stricken out. Rejected, after debate by Messrs. Goode and Baldwin. Mr. Tare, of Brooke, offered an amendment, which was defeated. The 8th resolution, as amended by Mr. Summers, was then adopted. Mr. Montague moved that the Committee rise. It was, he said, now 5 o'clock, and he
eers, I believe, has been to Richmond, earnestly endeavoring to obtain arms and service for his men. They are to be gratified, it is understood, and hence they hold themselves ready to start at an hour's notice. The new Rifle company, organized yesterday, now awaits equipments and arms. They desire active service. A Home Guard is being organized. Troops have been drilling day and night for many days, to secure the greatest efficiency in time for the call of the Governor. Messrs. Price, Caperton, et als., addressed the citizens of the county, assembled enmasse at the Court-House on yesterday. They strongly urged sustaining Virginia in her late action. At the conclusion of the addresses the vote was taken on the question, "Shall Greenbrier vote for the Ordinance of Secession?" There was but one voice manifested in the tremendous response of assent. The Superior Court, Judge Hudson presiding, is in session. One or two important criminal cases came up for trial.
s. Plans have been adopted to continue such supply of funds as can be collected here, and we are encouraged to believe that we are prepared for any call that is likely to be made upon us at this time. We shall, however, need eventually the co-operation of our sisters through out the State, and therefore we would suggest that in every county and in every community societies be formed at once. Whatever amounts can be raised, let them be forwarded as soon as possible to our Treasurer, Mrs. Samuel M. Price. We will say in conclusion, that the most of those who may be wounded in any battle that may take place will be brought here; still, as already mentioned, we propose to send nurses and comforts to the different camps. You will therefore feel as deep an interest as ourselves in the success of this movement. We have the President's sanction for what we propose, and with your aid promptly rendered we may, by God's blessing, do a great deal for the bodily and spiritual comfort of t

Missouri. --The Northern telegraphic accounts from Missouri are altogether unreliable. We have no idea that our cause there is retrograding, notwithstanding the retreat of McCulloch to Arkansas. From accounts received by telegraph here, it is evident that both Green and Price are doing good service. McCulloch's withdrawal is merely temporary and for a good reason, intended to give his next advance increased potency and effect. General A. S. Johnston will soon add new spirit and efficiency to the operations in Missouri.
