Gov. Seymour's message. The New York Legislature met on the 10th inst. Gov. Seymour's message was read. The following is its conclusion: The victories which have given our Government its present commanding position were won by men who rallied around and fought beneath the fields of a flag whose stars represent each State in our Union. If we strike out of existence a single State, we make that flag a falsehood. When we extinguish the name of any one of the original thirteen States, we dishonor the historic of our national banner, Let the treasonable

Trustworthy repfrom above represent that he is sweeping the country above of every thing in the shape of food, and is driving or hauling it toward a common depot in Virginia. Longstreet, it is said, considers East Tennessee as "gone up" during the war. No serious attempt, it is believed, will again be made to dislodge us from East Tennessee. Wre of our trains was not understood by me. I learned yesterday, from an officer well informed on the subject, that there were 80 wagons in the train captured by Longstreet's forces — all loaded with valuable commissary stores. These, added to the loss of forage wagons on Sunday and Monday, make about 100 teams in all which have f

An official document of the rebels, laying down the plans of General Early in West Virginia, has fallen into the hands of our troops. It appears from this paper that General Early was to cut the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad at Martinsburg, and by a combination of movements attempt the capture of such Union forces as were between Martinsburg and New Creek. At the latter place Gen. Early, having heard that we were concentrating troops at Martinsburg, and having been informed that General Averill was there with a strong cavalry force, determined to alter his pla and get into Cumberland and capture or destroy the stores there. They both failed, because General Early could not reinforce them with artillery and supplies. A correspondent of the Baltimore

Mr. Cox, of Ohio, (D.m.,) moved to lay the resolution on the table. Disagreed to. The resolution was then adopted — yeas 89, nays 24. Mr. Howe, of Wisconsin, presented a preamble and resolution of the most terrific character, which did not pass, in view probably of the great difficulty in getting the one million and the absurd proposition of enlisting members of Congress.
