pointed Wessrs. Dashie, Townsend and Smith on

: Mr.. LYNCH, Chairman of the Committee on Fed
srai Relations, reported preamble and resolutions
sproposing the appoint tment of joint committee OF
l,ight members of the Legislature, four from the
Y senate and four from the House, whose duty 1t
shall be to select from their own numbers two per-
sons to wait the President of the United States.
1.-TWO to wait on the President of the Southern Con
ederacy, and two to visit the Governor OF Vir-
gnla, and two to visit the Governor of Pennsyva--
MIA, for the purpose of proposing and urging meas
lures to provide for suspension OF hOsllltes until
the assembling of Congress on the 4h OF July, in
\ order that said Congress may, if possible. arrange
tor an adjustment of existing difficulties by means
OF the ballot box rather than the sword.
e Mr.. GoLDsBoRoUGH, of Talbot, opposed the motion
not Mr.. lellot to suspend the rules to give the
youtions final reading, and spoke at length in op
position to them.
j. Messrs. Lynch McKaig and Yellott moved the
Immediate passage of the resolutions with great
'earnestness, contending that it was the duty of
Mary Wand to exercise what influence she possessed
to save the country from the horrors of civil war.
The Senate without taking action on the resou-
tions adjourned till tomorrow.
The House of Delegates held an informal caucus
this afternoon, to which they invited the Senate.
Mr.. 1ELLoTT opposed the acceptance of the in
vltation on the ground of the popular diSapproval
recently manifested to secret sessions
Senators Yellott, Lynch, Whitaker, Blackstone
and Others declined to attend.
The ca1cus has probably under consideration tn e
subject of adjournment, and perhaps also th e
subject of the Convention.

Henri, of the Holiday Street stock company, takes
farewell benefit, and offers excellent bill as the
entertainment. Mrs. Henri actress is too
well known to need commendation. She has from
the beginning of her engagement been deservedly
popular, and few of those who have within late
years been connected with the Theatre of this city,
possess so many of the qualifications essential for
the discharge of the roles they have assumed as
this lady. Modest and correct in her department,
afable in her manners and kind in her disposition,
she has made troops of friends who Will no doubt

The Capital of the United States has never been
threatened, and it is not now threatened
1t is beyond and outside the limits OF
the free and sovereign State of Virginia. The
North has net openly and according to the usages

A PROCLAMATION BY THE GOVERNOR OF
NIRGINIA

The sovereignty of the Commonwealth Of Vir-
gna having been denied, her territorial rights
sailed, her soil threatened with invasion by the
thorities at Washington, and every artifce employ
ed which could intame the people of the Northern
States, and misrepresent our purposes and wishes,
it becomes the solemn duty of every citizen Of this
State to prepare for the impending conflict. Those
misrepresentation have been carried to such an ex-
tent that foreign and naturazed citizens, who, but
a few years ago were denounced by the North, and
deprived of essential rights, have now been induced
to enlist into regiments for the purpose of invading
this State, which then vindcated those rights, and
effecually resisted eucroachments which threaten
ed their destruction. Against such policy and
against a force which the Government at W ashing-
ingtOn relying upon its numerical strength, is
rapidly concentrating, it becomes the State OF Vir
ginia to prepare proper safeguards. To this end
and for these purposes, and with determination
TO repe invasion, !, John Letcher, Governor OF the
Commonwealth of Virginia, by authority Of the
Convention, do hereby authorize the commanding
General Of the military forces OF this State, to call
out, and to cause to be mustered into the service
of Virginia from time to time, the public eXigen-
cies may require, such additional number of youn-
teers as he may deem necessary.
To facilitate this call, the annexed schedule will
indicate the places of rendezvous at which the
panes called for will assemble upon receiving or
ders for service.
