THE CALL ANSWERED.


Orr readers (says the Union) will recolleci The
resolution OF Mr. John M. Clayton, calling upon
The Presiden, for copies Of any correspondence
which may have passed between the two Govern
ments since the last call was answered. This re-
solution was discussed from day 10 day Tor some
time. Great expectations were formed OF The Ell
fects of this call Ii was commended that The Sc
nate was entitled 10 all the information they
could oblain-that il might be necessary TO assist
them in deciding the question OF notice. AT
length il was adopted on Saturday; and 50 great
had been the "secretivcness" las The Senator from
North Carolina, MIR. Mangum, called il) which
he ascribed TO The Administration, that when The
Presidents reply was returned to-day, The call
wa. mere water-hanl The President reports,
thai nothing had passed between the two Govern
ments on The subject, since his las! communica-
ZION. at is thought (said the Washington cor
respondent OF he Baltimore SUM the correspond
ence will be forthcoming next week, after which,
the Senate will have excuse for delaying action
any longer No correspondence, however,
is forthcoming; and now we shall see whether
The faction will be delayed any longer"
It's believed that from the indications OF This
day in The Senate, the question will De taken this
week. Indeed, Thursday seems TO have been IN
formally agreed upon. Procrasllnallon will
scarcely be The order OF the day. No more stea-
probably be made The Athenians will not wait
for further news from Philip. 1t is presumed,
100, from what passed to-day, that The question
will be taken on the House resolutions first IL
would be idle for us TO repeat, that this is the
form which will carry the most decided, salutary,
and moral effect into the negotiation.
The answer TO Mr.. lngersoll's call was e1Pec-
Ted to-day, and brought many an anxious audi
Tor to the House; bu, it was not received. The
charges which Mr. Ingersoll has made, are too
grave 10 be passed over A full investigation is
now demanded, as we'll by The character OF Mr.
Webster, as by the voice Of the community.
A DIFFICULTY IN THE METHOD
EPISCOPAL CHURCH.-Pursuant TO no
lice read from the pulpit Of the Nj. E. Church in
Warrenlon, Va. on Sunday morning, 9Th Of
March, the members OF that society met at hr
church on Tuesday evening, the 7th inst when
J. G. Kirby was requested TO preside, and w. B.
Carr 10 act as Secretary. After prayer by he
Rev. B. H. Berry, the object OF The meeting was
briefly stated, and series OF resolutions adopted,
10 which the decision OF the Baltimore Confer
ence on the division Of the church is unanimous
Is protested against. We have only room for the
three following resolutions
"Rcsolred, That nasmuch as the larger por-
lies in slaveholding States, that Conference, in
our opinion, acted unwisely in deciding 10 remain
under the jurisdiction Of the Northern Church;
believing as we do, that this branch OF the NJ. L.
Church 10 the Uniled States, will first repea The
Plan which provides for our peaceable separa-
ton, and then pursue such measures as will dis
lurb and asilale said Conference, and finally 10
force i, 10 secession or an abandonment OF It's
principles.
Reoired, Tha, We are mistaken in our deter
minaiion OF adhering South; that we believe our
future peace and prosperity requires il; that If
order 10 avoid all agitation, We deem II best 10
ACT now and dispose OF the question immediate
"; and that We are in favor Of transferring this
Circuit, 10 The Virginia Conference, in accord
ance with The plan of separation.
"R,~lred, That convention OF delegates from
ell the circuits and stations in the Baltimore Con-
terence, disposed 10 adhere South, is Desirable
Ia order 10 secure concert of action, that we re-
commend Fredericksburg as suitable place,
and The first Of May as proper time, for said |
convention 10 assemble, and do hereby request
our circuit convention 10 appoint delegates TO al
tend said convention in case il should he held"
