virsinia,s Call for a Conference

Fears are entertained in some quarters
that the Virginia call for Conference of
the Border States, at Washington, conceals
some dark design of the dlsunionists. -
People are turning 10 each other, as Wash
ington turned 10 his staff at West Point,
his face whitened with the shock of ArnoId's
treason, when he remarked, "whom can
we trust now?" There is no reason 10 ap-
prebend treachery in this call of Virginia.
Whatever may be the result, we belive the
call TO he made in perfect good faith
The fact that the traitor organs OF Virginia
most bitterly opposed The movement, and
continue TO dehounce it with unintermilten,
violence, is pretty good evidence of hnnes-
ty of purpose in The movers. The Rich
mond Enquirer. of the 23d ilst., in lead.

"Afler doing their usmost to tie the
hands of the Convention, by requiring
that their action shall, in a certain cuiltiD-
geucies, be limited merely to the oiiice of
recommending measures for popular adop-
tion or rejection, the Legislature make
bold not only to express tile opinion Mut
the people Of Virgi"ia are prepared
to submit to anti,stavery oppression, Int
to take important action, and to recon-
mend similar action on tile part Of other
STATES, an pursuance Of this opinion"
And there is much more in a similar
vein in the most scandalous Of sheets.

coDtrivance of the conspirators-we per-
ceive how nearly the Georgians came to
repudiating their nest of traitors. In Ala
bama, the opponents of immediate seces-
sion were shown by the election to be ex-
ceedingly powerful. In the Northern Sec

intense, and it is now boiIirg with indig-

submit the ordinance of secession TO the
people. The system of lying, so effective

Georgia, was used likewise 10 Alabama

the people, unsettle the sober Judgment,
and hurry them into conclusion that the
preservation of the Federal Government
was impossible, and they irrevocably COM
mitted against it, forts were clandestineiy
occupied by State troops-ihe authorities
taking the responsibility of acts of war
against the Federal Government. To
crown all, when tn. Convention assembled,
the conspirators made their appearance in
full force. There were the Knights of the
Gnlden Circle, Minute Men, and all the
other secret, oath bound, traitor organiza-
tions, in full force. getting up a tremendous
outside pressure and insisting with potency
of mob that, the disunion setiment was
unanimous. The wonder is not that the
Union men made so Intellectual a resistance
to the conspirators, but that they wer,
able to make so respectable show of op
position 10 the flood of faction.

selves in matter of no taxation. "If it

why is it not also a 'lillle bit Elegant 10 be

thing or any body may escape the honor
which is to be enjoyed in making sacrifices
for an abstraction. We re-enumerate some
of the items of proposed special levy:

The Commercial Effect Of Dis

Before the election of Lincoln, terrible
hue and cry was made to the effect that il
the Republican party triumphed, trade
would be stopped, ships would rot at their
wharves, anc railroads would speedily be-
come bopelessly bankrupt. New York was
,he head quarters Of the panic. and the
New York Herald the medium through
which the country was informed of the
universal poverty which was TO come upon
US all.
How has the matter turned out! Lin
coin has been elected and dissolution is up
on us. But in spite of all this, New York
city and Northern railroads are full of bu-
siness, and the same New York Herald,
which grew frantic over the picture of des-
olation which it drew, now writes as fol-
lows Of the extraordinary prosperity:
"The harvest never was so abundant,
and ahe prosperity Of the country ne.er
rose 10 SO high pitch, as during the last
wear. The demand for its breadstuffs in
Europe is unusually great. Money is pour
ing into New York from abroad. Ten
millions Of dollars have arrived within a
very short time, and capital is daily necu
mulating here in an unprecedented manner.
1t cannot long remain inactive when there
are products in the interior for sale. Those
who want to sell will find purchasers in
New York, and trade will become unusual
" brisk. Tg T/FgHs s.5. g9# I'll
Thus, though there may be be very lit
tie personal communication between the
citizens of the seeding States and the
North. there will be flourishing CONNER
cial intercourse, and its great center will be
the city of New York. The revolutionary
condition Of the South is driving the trade
to this market, while il is imDoverishing
the Southern ports in The same proportion.
From this cause, and from the extraordi-
nary abundance of the crops in the West,
and the extraordinary demand for them in
England, great commercial revival is ta-
hing place here, and an amount of busi-
ness will soon be done which will astenish
those who imagined that, by their insane
proceedings, they were inaic,ing deadly
blow upon the commerce Of New York,
which will ever be the free city of Ameri-
ca-free not merely in political, but in
commercial sense-the entrppot of the
trade Of the Old World and the New,

language:
'These are tie things which the people

tending to revolution rapidly; and it is the

There are difficulties, privations and dangers
