king about the probable result of our national troubles. The Baptists have been holding meetings for a week, and when the weather would permit, the congregations have been very large. Next week, Bishop Johns, of the Episcopal Church, will be here. Fredericksburg abounds in churches, and the religious element is very strong. The schools seem not to suffer from the crisis. Rev. Dr. Broaddus has the largest Female Institute here, numbering some fifty. I have noticed for several days that very few persons are passing through on the cars. The travel seems almost suspended. Black Republican rule will likely injure the Richmond and Fredericksburg Railroad more than any other in the State. But there are not a few here who are yet hoping that peace and harmony will be restored, and our country be one again. Mr. Goggin's secession resolutions created some sensation yesterday. The Dispatch seems to be taken by nearly every family here, and is read with great interest.

Mr. Harvie, of Amelia, said various inquiries had been made of him as to when he should offer his minority report as a substitute for the report of the committee. He gave notice that he would do so at the proper time. Mr. Goggin, of Bedford, said he would give a similar notice that when the gentlemen from Amelia offered his amendment, he should offer his report as an amendment thereto.

The Convention. The debate was continued on Saturday, in Committee of the Whole, on the pending propositions. Mr. Flournoy urged the presenting of an ultimatum to the North, without a Conference with the Border States. Mr. Goggin spoke in favor of his own ordinance of secession, which looks to a re-construction in union with the States which-have withdrawn. Mr. James Barbour commenced a speech, advocating secession, but was physically unable to finish. He will resume the floor to-day, if the state of his health permits. The Convention, after a pretty warm contest, adopted a resolution for the termination of debate, in Committee of the Whole, on Thursday next.

He would leave the gentleman from Princess Anne to explain his own position, though he understood that he, like the gentleman from Bedford, (Mr. Goggin,) was for immediate secession, but did not contemplate an immediate conjunction with the Southern Confederacy; that he was one who would wait for co-operation. Mr. Scott then went on to urge the necessity of a consultation with the States whose co-operation was desired, before withdrawing, and leaving them in another Government. Immediate secession, so far from being a measure of peace, he believed would be a measure of war. Within sixty days it would bring on a collision — collision wit
