Secession in Virginia gels on at linn,
ing pace. Wise made a furious speech
some days ago against referring things to
committees, because lie considered it L
mean, miserable dodge to delay business.
He WAS for action, and he believed every
man was as competent to vote on distinct
propositions at once, as after they had been
through the grinding process. i seems
however, that the only business done by
the Convention is to tumble resolution at'
