her consent was influenced by a patriotic desire to preserve the peace and prevent the destruction of the Union. That consideration, he considered, was a potent reason why she should now turn her back upon the people who were so basely ungrateful for the efforts she had heretofore made. Mr. Goode went on to allude to the election of a sectional President as a cause for severance from the Union, taking the ground that it was sufficient, and reading from a speech of Millard Fillmore, in 1856, to substantiate his argument. The checks and balances of the Constitution he regarded as utterly impotent to restrain the party now in power. To show that the abolitionists had, in no way, backed down, be sketched their history in connection with political movements at the North, which, commencing with a comparatively small number, had constantly augmented, until it resulted in the election of Lincoln to the Presidency. He then read an extract from Lincoln's sentiments on the subject of s

t their speeches, if buncombe was their object, and let them go forth to the country as if delivered here; but he thought it was high time that speaking should terminate and action begin. The leading men had already thrown away enough time and talent. His constituents had instructed him to take the State out of the Union, and he gave gentlemen warning that he would bring in an Ordinance of Secession to-morrow morning, and would take them directly to the point at issue. Mr. Blakey, of Madison, replied to Mr. Branch, and maintained that members were not liable to a charge of delaying business because they desired to perfect and render acceptable the propositions under consideration. He advocated the amendment offered by the gentleman from Gloucester, and made an argument upon the question of sovereignty. Mr. Moore, of Rockbridge, hoped the discussion would shortly terminate. It was the most idle debate that he had ever listened to. It was a mere disagreement upon the meani

t as a revolutionary remedy, but he should uphold it as the last resort. Mr. Goode, of Mecklenburg, had listened to all the arguments with pleasure and satisface who were so basely ungrateful for the efforts she had heretofore made. Mr. Goode went on to allude to the election of a sectional President as a cause for sev slavery, that it would override any barrier interposed by the Constitution. Mr. Goode argued at some length upon the general subjects advanced from the Union side s body. In criticising the report of the Committee on Federal Relations, Mr. Goode opposed various propositions therein contained.

the Constitution. Mr. Goode argued at some length upon the general subjects advanced from the Union side of the Convention, and was occasionally "set right" by Mr. Baldwin in quoting his positions. He passed a glowing eulogium upon the course of the Virginia Senators in Congress, in regard to whom a resolution of censure had beends "in regard to." This was accepted by Mr. Scott. The roll was then called, and the vote resulted as follows: Yeas.--Messrs Janney, (President,) Aston, Baldwin, Baylor, Berlin, Boggess, Brown, Burdett, Burley, Campbell, Carter, Robt. Y.

red by the gentleman from Gloucester, (Mr. Seawell,) to insert in the fifth line of the first resolution, after the word"sovereignties, " the words "and still are sovereign." Mr. Scott, of Powhatan, moved to amend the amendment by adding after the word "sovereign," the words "over all powers not granted to the United States by the Constitution of the United States." Mr. Fisher, of Northampton, asked if there was any person in the United States who deemed that proposition? The Chairman.--That is not for the Chair to decide. Mr. Fisher desired to have something tangible to vote upon. Mr. Conrad, of Frederick, thought that altogether too much stress was placed upon the word sovereign. It was a word more applicable to European nations than to a Republican country. He thought there was no more relevancy in the insertion of the proposed amendment than in the insertion of any other truism. They might as well insert the whole bill of rights of Virginia. He would no

he Cotton States, he would think this was a high court sitting in judgment upon the action of those States, and particularly South Carolina.--It was affirmed that they acted precipitately, and without consulting Virginia. He contended that South Carolina and Mississippi did seek to consult with her, and she declined; and to prove that their purpose was to abide by the result of the Conference, he produced extracts from the addresses of Mr. Memminger, Commissioner from South Carolina, and Gen. Starke, Commissioner from Mississippi, before the Legislature of Virginia. The destruction consequent upon the refusal of Virginia, then foretold, had come to pass. Gentlemen might sing hymns and psalms and plans to the Union, but it was destroyed, and he believed that upon their heads rested the responsibility. They refused to go into the Conference with their sisters, and now Virginia was left almost alone under an abolitionized Government. In conclusion, Mr. Goode paid a tribute to the ga
