rona has passed act provide Tor the appointment
OF Delegates Southern Congress, to be entrusted
with iu power and authority to deliberate with the

Be it therefore Resoiued bV the General 4sse,n5iv
Of Virginia, That whilst this State deeply sympathses
with South Carolina in the feelings excited by the un
warantabe interference OF the -savehodng States
with our common Institutions and whilst diversity of
opinion exists among the people OF this Common
wealth in regard to the WISDOM justice and consttu
nonaly OF the measures OF the late Congress of the
United States taken as whole, and commonly known
as the compromise Measures: yet the Legislature of
Virginia deems it duty to declare to her sister State
OF South Carolina, that the People of this State
wiling to take any action lin consequence OF the sane)
calculated to destroy the integrity of this Union.
= 3D. ResotUed, That regarding the said acts of the
Congress OF the United States, taken altogether
adjustment OF the exciting questions to which they re-
late and clershpg the hope that if fairly executed.
they will restore TO the country that harmony and con-,
fdence which of late have been so unhappy disturbed
the State OF Virginia deems it unwise, in the present
condition OF the country to send delegates the pro-
Sd. Resolred, That Virginia earnestly and affection
atey appeals to her sister State OF South Carolina to
desist from any meditaed secession upon her part,
which cannot but tend to the destruction of the Union

spring from it.
4th. Resolpsd That Virginia, believing the Const

provides adequate protection to the rights OF all the
States OF this Confederacy, and still looking that in
srument for Defence within the Union; warned by tha
expedency OF the past the dangers OF the present. and
the hopes of the future, invokes all who live under it
TO adhere strictly it, and to preserve inviolate
the safeguards which 1t affords the rights to indyi
dual States and the interests of sectional minoles.
5th Resolced. That all Legislation or combinations

preston, which bears a construction that was
probably not contemplated by the committee, and
which we could wish 10 see altered; we refer TO
the language of the first resolution, asserting
"the understandable interference of the non-slare-
holding Sfates' with Southern institutions. How
ever much reason we may have tor complaining
of the unfriendy conduct of some of the Northern
States, there are others certainly which have
not yet merited our censure Illinois and Iowa,
for example have uniformly manifested desire
to uphold the equal guarantees of the constitution.
p. S. 1t will be seen that the House passed
the resolutions yesterday evening, by almost unan-
imous votes.

Parodi md her Ir0upe.

We doubtwhether Parodi ever enjoyed great
ef triumph than she has achieved in Richmond
Every body who has heard her seems to be en-
chanted. The editor Of the Enquirer rhapsodizes
about her in strain that causes us to have SER
Gus fears for both his reason and his heart. Her
soft Italian makes him utterly ignore and despise
his mother tongue, and, just now, we doubt
whether Democracy itself has any charms for his
Imagination. The Wing, almost equally beside
ITSELF starts upon laudalory critique of the con-
cert of Saturday evening, and wanders off into a
remarkable dissertation upon the originality and
superlative merits Of g OH Joe Sweeney" as a
banjo player! The sober truth is, that Parodi,
Patti, Strakosch, Ilauser and the Germania band
present musical combination such as Richmond
never saw before, and is not likely to see again fora
long time. The two Concerts have given unboun-
ded delight; and the operate entertainment to-
night is expected to be even more charming than
either.
