NORFOLK.

A large meeting of citizens was held in the city
of Norfolk on Thursday night last, at which reso-
lutions declaring the Nashville Convention mex
amendment sufficient compromise and stipula-
ton for the South, but at the same time averring
readiness "to resist any and every encroachment
upon our rights either of person property, come
from what quarter it may and to "unite with our
brethren Of the Southern States in maintaining
those rights either in Convention or otherwise,
whenever an occasion shall arise calling for ac-
ton on our part''-were unanimously adopted
Mr. II. c. Tabb presided. The committee who
reported resolutions were Messrs. A. F. Leonard,
R. E. Taylor, John P. Leigh, S. Hartshorn, R..
w. Bowden, t. R. Lee and VIM. N. McKen-
ney.
"The meeting was addressed (says the report of
the secretaries) by R. J. Lackey, Esq, of North
cumberland, "a delegate to the late District Con-
vention in Hampton) who being present and called
upon, responded in a train of remarks of much
force and effect-bearing down without stint upon
the getters up of the Nashville Convention, and

partisan character of the whole movement

have too vivid recollection of the utter failure
of the 'no-party' scheme recommended by the last

we shall notice the substance of the Address more
particularly hereafter. 1t procaims that the papers in
washington are engaged in lulling the South into
false security and in manufacturing there an artificial
public sentiment suitable for some Presidential plat
form" 1t we had any confidence that members OF
Congress were better than the Washington journals in
this regard, should think their reasoning more orc
BILE. They have, at least, given cruel blow to the
Union the senior editor of which has declared Tint NOT
the Union his private opinion to be in favour of the
Nashville Convention.

the State sum up, for the, Convention 7,o49
against it 1888, Adding unofficial returns from
Augusta Frederick and Rockbrdge, the Valley
| exclusive of Allegheny Bath and Clarke gives
for the Convention 1851; against it 1,233--ma-
jority for it 8,6l6.
The official returns from the Trans-Alleghany
Division sum up, for the Convention 1927; against
it o,o56-majority against it 1929. Unofficial
returns from Grayson, Lee, Monongalia, Russell
Tazewe and Wood, increase this majority about
450, making the whole Trans-Alleghany majority
thus far about $3.50.
The official returns from the two Eastern d.
visions sum up, for the Convention 26,562; against
it 3,834--majorty so far 22,728; which is in.
creased, by the unofficial returns of Fauquier and
Henry, to 23,S72.
1t now seems probable that the two Western
Divisions will very nearly counterbalance each
other, and that the majority given for the Conven
ton in the East will be about the majority by
which the people of the State will demand it.
