Nontbern CONFERENCE.

The subject Of the Southern Conference beng under
consideration on Wednesday evening
Mr. Martin of Henry, said: Mr. Speaker When
made an Intellectual effort obtain the floor at the cOnclu
siou of the remarks Of the gentleman from Bjtetour
was with 10 view Of initiating his example, either by
making a speech or by telling anecdote. Nor have
risen for any such purpose now for l have too much
respect tor this House TO attempt discussion OF the
important question under consideration, considering the
circumstances by which We are sutrouudet But do
think if ever there case in which the cousump
ton OF portion of the time Of this House in discus
sion would be proper it would be by those upon this
floor concding with in opinion upon ris question
of "A Southern Conference. Why, sir 10 is q matter OF
public uotorety that there has rarely If eyer, such
traorduary efforts been made 10 influence che decision
of a Virginia Legislature. For more than two months
the entire Democratic press of this city, the communca
tons and addresses of high officials and exoficiis
the spceches and letters of the Commissioners from South
Carolina aud Mississippi, and speeches without number
upou this floor have been circulated all over the State
in order 10 manufacture public opinion in favor Of this
obnoxious propositions Wills. the opponents OF the mea
sure with but few exceptions have been willing and
ious 20 vote upon the question with abiding conf
deuce that their position would be yindicaied 10y the
Ggbened judgement of the people Of this ancient Com
m0uwcatl--aud l certainly would not have said one
word upOu this subject but for expressions used
by the gentleman from Bofetour, which do not think
should pass unnoicgd That gentleman after alluding
TO his long public services and presenting bis views at
great length, stated that he wished to who 1t
upon this floor that prepared submit quietly and
amriv the aggreSsiOu Of the North upon the rights
of Virginia. / did perceive the propriey Of the
geutemans allo,on. have heard no such proposition
submitted no such sentiment expressed upon this door
aud am proud TO think that there is not feeling in the
bosom Of member Of this body otherwise than that OF
LOYALTY 10 Virginia in all her interests and all her ins
tatious But Mr. Speaker will say that gentleman,
that his long experience IN public life has taught him but
little Of vi guia character if he prcsunes thus 10 drive
any gentleman upon this floor from a position he has
taken as the result of his best Judgment. But torbear
arose simply Tor the purpose OF submitting proposi
ton the eff c. Of which will be- if ADOPTED, to econo-
mise the time of this House. By resolution which was
adopted this morning, the hour Of one o'clock tomorrow
was fixed upon the time when the vote the pending
question is 70 be taken. As there many other i'm
portsu questions TO be acted upon and only four days
intervene before the expiration Of the session, move
that the further consideration Of the question be post
poned until tomorrow at hai-past - O'Clock.
