Correspondence of the President and the
Aauth q IN 1 mini siunerS

South CarOIima ommi ksiUnfrs-
The correspondence, which will be found in
another column. was not terminated by Mr.
BUCHANAN a III oment TOO soon for his own
polemical and epistolary credit. The Com
missioners seem 10 have cornered his Excel
lency in a style from which there was es-
cape, bat throwing himself upon his dignity.
The parties appear 10 have differed materially
in their recollec ton of matters of fact. We
DOM undertake To decide between them, but
tn. Caroliuians being younger gentlemen, aud
their mem ories not affected by the inf mites
OF age, the presumption is in their favor.

Roth Houses OF the General Assembly yes
tsrdav promptly look up the impor tanI ques-
,,os. Of the day. Ia the Senate, after the read.
ing OF the Governors Message, very decided
resolu lions against the coercion of seeding
S,xte we're offered by Mr. DOUGLASS, and or
dsred 10 be printed.
In the House, however, different course
Vas taken. II was considered that In the
periious condition of the country, and the
strong proba oilities of the commencement OF
q war between the Federal power and some OF
the Southern States, Virginia should speak
without the delay of single day. Resoiu-
tions proposed i'm nediateiy after the reading
of the Governors Message. were referred to a
committseof fifteen, with instructions TO re-
port upon them " ith as little delay as possible
The House took q recess until five O'CLOCK.
When IL re.ussembied, the Committee reported
very decided resolutions (see report OF pro-
ceediues) against the power Of the Federal
GyerLment TO coerce a seeding State or
s1ates ard pIedging Virginia 10 resist with all
her means any such attempt BY the Federal
Government SO to coerce seeding sister
State. These resolutions-with little or No
debate, and with only some brief explanations
by mem bers as they yoted-were passed by the
almost unanimous vote of l12 ayes TO > mays
This glorious result was received with eyldent
signs of joy by the Assembly itself, as well as
the galleries. The resolutions, in order to Sc
cure unanimity, avoided the question OF seees-
sion but we have not the slightest doubt that
an immense majority Of the Virginia Legisla-
ture would maintain the right OF secession.
The House OF Delegates also passed a resolu-
ton instructing a select committee promptly
to bring In bill providing for the calling Of a
Convention OF the people 10 consider the ext
gencies OF the country.
The spirit manifested by the Legislature is
the very best, and foreshadops harmony and
union In the South. The first step of coercion
bands the South as one man. II the Federal
Government keeps its hands of, the South Will
consider what is best, and it is to be hoped
will come in coed time to that condition OF
harmony and union which can alone prevent
war, and in which alone there can be any hope
OF reconstructing the Contederacy.

Iv fn;ured by falling from the lookout alof',
and his dying request of Capt. Baker, who
watched over and cared for him as ii he had

to do SO il possible, and being in the vicinity OF
