HOUSE OF DELEGATES.
RICH MOND, VA

Some pcrion Of he fine talents and abilities Of
new members of the Legislature, 10 which We re-
lerred few days since, was developed on Salur.
day, in The interesting debate upon the Commit
ICES report, giving scat TO each 81 the contest
Jog claimants from the cOuDiics Of Fairfax and
Alexandria Mr.. Wood, OF Frederick, made an
excellent Speech which was much admired Tor
its strong views and the fine manner in which
they were presented. We can refer 10 only one
OF his points viz: lhalboh branches OF The Legs
aure alone conld give the right OF delegate TO
any county-lhat if the House of Delegates could,
by resolution, admit delegate from Alexandria,
it might admit five or twenty, or any greater
number that in that mode the whole nature Of
the Legislature might be chansed-and that the
proper mode would be 10 reject the present Dele
ltgale from Alexandria, elected under in uncon-
slilutional act, by which Fairfax was deprived OF
constitutional right, and pass law by the Sc
nate and House OF Delegates together, giving TO
Alexandra a separate Delegate, and then issue
writ Of election under hat law, and net admit a
Delegate by resolution OF the House Of Delegates
alone.
MIR. R. c. L. Moncnre, Of Stafford, followed in
a long and very able argument in support of the
Committees Report, which was listened 10 with
the deepest attention. He realized the well-de-
served reputation which preceded him-tha: he
was every strong man." He presented. in
the clearest manner, several striking views
and strong points. He argued, among other
views, that Inc annexation OF Alexandra
was a casus omiS5us, but entirely consistent
with our Constitutional taxation and repre-
senta,ion were necessary incidents TO the annex
a.ion. and that, even had no law giving Ale1an-
dria a representative been passed, she could have
Justly claimed delegate in The House. under cur
Bill oil RIGHTS and Constitution That the House
was Judge OF the consli,uionaily Of the law,
and had The right to reject that portion Of it which
was unconstitutional and confirm hat portion OF
il which was constitutional. On the highest
grounds therefore, he commended, that The delegates
o. Alexandria and Fairfax should both be re-
ceived, whou! sending the matter back 10 The
people.
Mr. Mayo sustained the Report, and Mr.. La.
ner opposed it, conlendiDg that We could not in
crease the number OF delegates specified in lht

health, and the wounded rapidly recovering.
The inhabitants both at SaltiIIo aud Monterey
were generally returning 10 their homes, and,
in the country, are engaged in planting their

FnoM MONTEREY. A correspondent of
the New Orleans Delta writing from Mon

Since the late glorious victory at Buena
VISTA all has been quiet, save occasionally n
set to in the streets between some Of the
boys, by way of Keeping their hands in.
There is ut present no movement ofuoops
in this quarter The twelve months voIun-
teers ARE looking forward to the time of their
discharge with great pleasure, and it is
thought Ivy many here that "UncIe Sam" will
have to hold out great inducements to pro-
cure men TO volunteer or enlist for five years
or during the war.
A train of some eighty or ninety wagons
leave this place in the morning for Camargo,
escorted by the LIST Mississippi Rillemen.
The MeXicans nre returning to Monterey
in crowds, and our streets present lively and
business appearance. The weather is de-
lightiul and the climate all that men can wish
for.
Gen. Taylor was at Monterey on the 9th
April, pushing forward supplies and prepur-
ing for an advance on San Luis Potos.
Gen. Wool was with the main body Of the
army at Aqua Nuevd. Every thing was qui-

LF1Among the most gratifying conSidera-
,ons connected with our triumphs in Virgin
IA, is the establishment beyond doubt ofthc
great unpopuarity of the war in that State
The Wing candidates and the Wing papers
throughout the State, openly took the ground
that the war was unconstitutonally begun
The war question was almost the only one
discussed by the opposing candidates before
the people. The Wings were every where
revlled by their antagonists as "MeXican Fed
crasts," and denounced MS wanting in patri-
otism, because they would not sustain the
Executive in wrong doing. The Organs of
the President, the Washington Union and the
Richmond Enquirer down, expected to derive
all their political capital from holding the
Wings up us the enemies of their country
The result has wofiIlly disappointed their eX-
pcctatlons. The very issue they have raised
has established startling fact, that will he
heard by the President in thunder tones, in
the inmost recess of the Executive palace
The Ur is mol pOpuior, ii is condemned euen in
Virginia.! "The PEOPLE," says the Rich
mond Wing, 'can discriminate, as the result
ofthis election shows, between factious op-
position the measures necessary successful
prosecute the war, and fearless GER
sure OF the conduct of the Admin
lstraon in making that war. The Wings do
not recognise any identity between the coun-
nya9d The President. They do not, there
'oM feel under any obligation, in order to
sustain the country, to which they are always
Tendy to give evidence of their devotion, to
applaud him, when, by the usurpation of a
power expressly withheld from him, he i'm
poses upon the country the necessity Of un-
slcathing the sword, whereby the lives of
thousands of our citizens are sacrificed, and
many millions of dollars must be squandcr-
ed"
