is all for conciliation, and depreciates open war as a departure from the letter of the Constitution, which gives no power of coercion. The feeling in Virginians just now so strong that 20,000 volunteers from that State are reported as having joined the Southern army, and the desire for immediate secession appears to be carrying all before it in the Convention and elsewhere. Virginia will carry with her, it is said, the other neutral States--North Carolina, Maryland, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri and Arkansas--Again, in the Far West, things are looking badly for the Government. The spirit of disaffection has crossed the Rocky Mountains and reached the Colorado river. The Territory of Arizona has resolved to join the South, and the ardent spirits of the North are cut off from all possibility of extension in the direction of Mexico. New Mexico, which is immediately to the north of Arizona, and in which the slavery party has made much progress, will probably also give in before long
member. The free conversation on the state of religion was made the first order of the day for to-morrow morning. Rev. James N. Bradshaw was requested to preach at night on the subject of missions. Adjourned to to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock. The corporate name of this body is "The United Synod of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America." It is composed of the Southern portion of the Presbyterians known as "New School," who, three years ago, separated themselves from the New School General Assembly because of its abolition tendencies. It has three local Synods and fifteen Presbyteries, about a hundred and twenty ministers and two hundred churches, in the States of Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, Arkansas, and Texas.--The United Synod is a delegated body, composed of commissioners from the several Presbyteries. We understand that a number of the pulpits of the city will, to-morrow, by invitation, be occupied by ministers of the Synod.
The decision of the Judge has been postponed. Yesterday U. S. Commissioner Hickman visited the arsenal to testify to McDonald's affidavit, and was informed by Gen. Lyon that Capt. McDonald was a prisoner of war, and, moreover, he was not in Missouri. Gen. Harney denies that any insubordination has taken place among the U. S. volunteers, but on the contrary, says that they have submitted with alacrity and cheerfulness to the discipline of the services. The public schools of this cis recently taken from the arsenal at Liberty, dispersed on the 13th. Enlisting at the arsenal at St. Louis continues active, about three hundred having been received yesterday. It is understood that Hyde Park, in the northern part of the city, has been leased by the Government, and that a regiment of troops will be quartered there The Keokuk and Quincy papers say that hundreds of Union men have been driven out of Missouri under orders issued by the "Council of the Southern Legion."
Imprisonment of Southern citizens. If Southern men of Baltimore are to be arrested by Federal troops, it is time that the South should begin to retaliate. Already, Rodgers and Wright, the Navy-Yard incendiaries, and Gen. Harney, the bloody tyrant of Missouri, have been in our hands, and have been treated with a humanity which they did not deserve. Hereafter, prisoners like these must be held as hostages for the conduct of our heartless enemy.
to the Governor of Vermont, his native State, to lead the first regiment of Green Mountain boys" I have a nice taste for choice morsels. If the house of the Valley Bank, Hagerstown, Md., would circulate in Vermont he might arm and feed a regiment at his own expense during the war. If they will not "go," perhaps he might turn over the proceeds of Potort Lead stocks, sold to his confiding Southern guests, to this very patriotic purpose. These two institutions, located in Maryland and Missouri, only yielded the Lelands a profit of three hundred thousand dollars, as they have modestly boasted, and we should be delighted to know if they intend to apply it all to war purposes for our subjugation. We do not know how many of our Southern friends, with small families, will live at that private palace at New Rochelle, this summer, at an expense of one hundred dollars a day; but think they will not, by reason of their presence as heretofore, prevent him from taking the field as the lead
