ia with regard to a Convention, and of the adoption of certain propositions for setting the present difficulties between the North and the South, was taken up and concurred in. Mr. August called for the order of the day, the consideration of the House bill creating an Ordnance Bureau, and appropriating one million dollars for the defence of the State. The Ordnance bill was amended by the insertion of the words, "and regulations of the Army of the United States." On motion of Mr. Stuart, the bill was then referred back to the Military Committee, with instructions to report fixed salaries for the officers provided for in the bill. On motion, the bill appropriating $1,000,000 was laid on the table. Bills Passed.--A bill to provide for taking the sense of the people of Henrico upon giving authority to the County Court to raise by loan $2,500 for arming the county; a bill amending and re-enacting the 2d section of the charter of the Mechanicville Turnpike Company, p

An incident of the last war. --At the entertainment given at Philadelphia to the Western Boards of Trade, Commodore Stuart (Old Ironsides) was induced to narrate the following reminiscence: Said the Commodore-- Since you have forced me to relinquish my natural modesty, I will do this much — I will narrate the anecdote correctly, as just told you by my friend. The two ships were the Cyane and Levant sent to take the Constitution. They were both commanded by captains who had won distinction at Trafalgar and the Nile, Captains Falcon and Douglass. After the Constitution had taken both ships, and their captains were on board the Constitution, a coolness existed between them, in consequence of the capture. Each accused the other of bearing out of the action and leaving the brunt to his associate. This question they agreed to leave to me, and I settled it in a moment. "It was you, Captain Douglass," said I, to the senior officer, "who first bore out of action." They wer

amiss to state that however much Gen Scott may love Virginia, he has taken special pains not to visit any of her representatives during his present sojourn in Washington. Heretofore, he has been invariably quite social and intimate with them. The nomination of Messrs. Randolph, Steger, and Robertson, in your city, and Messrs. Goggin and Kirkpatrick in Lynchburg, gives great satisfaction to Southern men here. But the Tribune says,"that patriots like Messrs. Botts, Barbour, Clemens, and Stuart, will have a clear majority of twenty-eight in the Convention." Heaven forbid! I could give the names of a party of traitors, where of "this correspondence" was one, who were busily engaged till a late hour last night in sending off the magnificent articles contributed by one "Bland," to the Richmond Ecuminer. Better antidote to the Clemens, Etheridge poison, there is none. Wealthy and working men of the North are here by scores, trying to hold water in a seive-- in other words, sa

rs during the period of suspension of specie payments by the Banks. The unfinished business of Friday, the bill to amend the charter of the Winchester and Potomac Railroad Company, was next called up, when, on motion of Mr. Carson, it was laid on the table, with the understanding that its consideration should be resumed at some day when the attendance of Senators was greater than at present. Mr. Isbell called up the resolution offered some time since by the Senator from Augusta, (Mr. Stuart,) relative to the contemplated attack upon the forts in Virginia and the Federal capital. On motion of Mr. Isbell, the resolution was subsequently laid on the table. Mr. Pennybacker offered a resolution for an adjournment of the Senate until next Wednesday, to which various amendments were proposed. Mr. Taliaferro moved that the resolution and amendments be indefinitely postponed, and the ayes and noes were demanded — ayes 11, noes 15. Refused to postpone. Mr. Douglas

The Convention The organization of this body was completed yesterday. Mr. W. J. Leake, of Goochland, was elected second Doorkeeper after an animated contest, and Capt. W. M. Elliott, of the Richmond Whig, Printer, without opposition. The Convention resolved to give a formal reception to the Commissioners from South Carolina, Georgia, and Mississippi, on Monday next. A Committee on Elections and another on Federal Relations were provided for by resolutions, and some other preliminary business was transacted. A resolution, calling on the Commissioners to the Peace Conference for information as to the prospect of an acceptable adjustment of difficulties, lies over until to-day. A personal explanation between Messrs, Wise and Stuart, which will be found in the report, terminated the proceedings of the day.

He alluded to the letter from Messrs, Ims recollection. Justice required him to say further that he had been intimately asserted with Mr. Stuart the whole winner, and that neither received information that was not mentioned to the other; and he (Mr. W never heard of the matter till he heard it mentioned in the Senate.
