ilitary defences of the country, and what should be done in view of possible contingencies. He of course deprecates secession, and begs his own State of Virginia to pause and bear the ills she has rather than fly to those she knows not of. But, if secession occurs, he says it will result not in the formation of two, but four distinct nationalities. The correspondent gives the divisions as near as he can recollect them as follows: The first will probably consist of New York, New England, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota; the second will consist of Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Western Virginia, and so along down the Blue Ridge, taking in Western Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri and Texas. The third will consist of South Carolina. Georgia, East Florida, Eastern Virginia, and perhaps Maryland and Delaware. The Pacific States will constitute the fourth.

h. Fifth--Against any discrimination by Congress against slave States asking admission. Sixth--Protecting persons and property in the Territories till they have thirty thousand inhabitants, when non-intervention by Congress shall be the law. The Committee had a laborious session today, and it is rumored that it is not improbable some plan will be proposed which will be satisfactory, and that the Committee will be able to report by the middle of next week, perhaps earlier. Mayor Lincoln, of Boston, and a large party of the city government, with ladies, arrived to- night, and put up at Willard's. The business of the party is of a municipal character.

It is reported that Mr. Edwin Stanton, for merely of Pennsylvania, but now a resident or Washington, will be appointed Attorney General.

former place, on the Chickshominy river, a painful accident occurred, which resulted in the almost immediate death of the Engineer, Mr. Jacob S. Walton. Just as the boat was crossing the bar, at Cypress bank, Mr. W. discovered that the force pump was out of order, and, without stopping the engine, went below to ascertain the cause. Supposing that he could get to the pump without danger, he made an effort to do so, when his head was caught by the revolving crank, and his skull crushed in the most horrid manner. His screams attracted the attention of the fireman, who instantly stopped the engine, but too late to be of any avail. The unfortunate man died in twenty minutes thereafter.

Mr. W. was a temperate, industrious man, and enjoyed not only the entire confidence of Capt. Hill, but the company by whom he was employed.
