the North, 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
ember. 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.
s from your section. Lincoln's a block head is off our city, and we care about as much for it as we did for his wayside speeches. The old ass thinks he can strive us out, but he never made a greater mistake. We have a superabundance of bacon corn, flour, butter, lard and fresh meats. The high prices a few weeks past has caused everybody who had money to go into speculations in provisions; the consequence is that we have a great plenty. One of our largest grocers has just returned from Tennessee, where he went to buy provisions, and he told me to-day that there was the greatest abundance of bacon, lard, corn and butter for sale in that State, to say nothing of North Carolina and Georgia. The only article we may likely run short of in the next twelve months, is coffee. We hardly suppose we have a stock that will last us more than twelve months unless the people use tea, of which we have plenty. As for vegetables, they are actually so abundance and cheap that we have to feed cows
net. --There are now about thirty thousand soldiers in and around Maryland, to hold that "loyal," Independent and sovereign State in subjection to the Federal Government. If anyone of Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet is good at figures, we propose the following sum for his consideration. If it takes thirty thousand soldiers to hold the little and "loyal" State of Maryland in subjection, how many will it take to suppress rebellion in all the powerful and revolted States of Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas and Arkansas? Mr. Lincoln's war programme will require an army of at least five hundred thousand men to suppress rebellion, and then if he could suppress it, it will take a standing army of at least three hundred thousand men to keep it suppressed. This immense standing army would cost us four hundred millions a year in solid cash. Then we must estimate that one-third of our soldiers will die annually to a ho
