since the arrival of King Ape's Inaugural, universal. To give you an idea of the intense anxiety for Virginia's immediate withdrawal, I instance the departure this morning of Mr. William Townes for Richmond, for the avowed purpose of using his influence with his Whig friends of the Convention. Mr. Townes is one of the wealthiest and most influential citizens of the county, and has, up to date, been very conservative. He deems the occasion appropriate for the resumption by Virginia of the powers she delegated to the Federal Government. The most rabid Union men now join cheerily in the chorus of secession. If the Convention don't do something for the honor and safety of the Commonwealth now, the people will take steps to abate it as a nuisance. The issue of battle has been made up, and the South now stands ready to come to a trial of arms. Will Virginia hesitate? Under which King, Bezonian? The weather very cold. Wood high, and little money to buy it with. Occasional.

Delaware Legislature. Wilmington, Del., March 8. --The Delaware Legislature adjourded sine die to-day. An endeavor was made to call an extra session in April on the state of the Union, but it failed. The Legislature refused by a large majority to renew the present lottery grant held by Messrs. Wood & Eddy, which expires in a few months. It is probable that no more lottery grants will be made by this State.
