lJllNLi, ma, my A'Nf NV
Gentlemen Permit me to express to You
the ycry high qualification which | have enjoyed
from the peruSal Of your views respecting the
attitude assumed by the delegates who with
drew from the late Charleston Convention. Such
out.spoken sentiments cannot but arouse the
latent ~chiyalry Of the brave sold Dominion"
Always conservative. she yet stands true, |
trust. TO her ancient character for high resolve
and uuhlanchiug courage. Now that the issue
has, FOR the first TING, been distinctly rendered
In the South, will she refuse 10 accept the gage
50 vaunsingly and '~ieiian.iy thrown at her
feet: Oh for Il irumpet-blist from her glo-
rious Wise, 10 sound through her valleys and
her dalcs--tu echo amongst her noun
tain s.ra.s and to sweep ti'r marshes Of
her sea.girl coast! That one voice would
be ornnipo,cnt. to the raIlying Of the waiting
clans. and would assemble 1T her capitol the
true embodiment Of VirGinia's power. The
18th dav of June, 1860, would stand out through
all time, in letters nr light, rs a proud day in
her already proud history.
But, let the course Of Virginia be what it
may in this crisis, one thing is certain \. por.
ton of the Southern States hive accepted the
gaze. and they ,Iow stand openly committed to
make good their cause; and unless have
mistaken the tone of public sentiment, there
will be no shrinking from Consequences
no backing down-no dallying with spu-
rious,. deceptive and hollow compromises
The issue rendered is single, and the verdict
demanded must be unqualified and responsive.

MY SISTER

Cp many flights Of crazy stairs,
Where oft ones head knocks unawsres;
With a rickety table, and without chairs.
And only q stool to knecl TO prayers.
Dwells my sister.
There Is no carpet upon the floor,
Ths wind whistles in through the cracks Of the
door;
One might reckon tie miSerieS by the score,
Rut who feels interest in one so poor:
Yet she is my sister.
She was blooming, and fresh, and young, and
fair,
With Grlsat blue eyes and auburn hair:
But the rose is eaten with caDker care,
And her visage is mark'd with u grim despair.
Such is my sister!
When at early morning, to rest her heac'
She throws herself on her weary oed'
longing to sleep the sleep of the deau; ,oa +.
Yet isarinx. from all she has heard ana reau ;
Pity my sister
R,t tho brjpht sun shines on her and me,
Ard on mine and hers and on '''n' I'o ''e''
Whatever our lo. in life may be,
Whether Of high or low degree,
Still she's our sister.
Weep for our sister,
Pray for our sister,

This case, which has attracted so much
attention on account of the wealth and
reputed piety of the complainant and the
responsibility OF the New York connec-
tons of the defendant, has finally been
