COMMISSION REFUSED 1t seems that the reason
why Capt. Henderson, Of the Henderson yards,

The Tribune refers to an advertisement
which discloses the fact that the Western
transportation Company are so crowded
with business at Detroit, that they solicit
the patrons Of the North Shore line of pro-
.Pelies to ship as much as possible by the
Great Western Railway, to relieve the
pressure upon their line for freight room.
The Tribune says this will serve to give
some idea Of tho immense trade now CEN
tering at this point, and adds:
TIE North Shore line has carried from
this port, since the 1st Of August, daily
ssersge Of $lO0, 900 in wool, pork, butter,
hrd, Aour, wheat, corn hides, leather, to-
bscco and hemp. Never in the memory of

THE STATE CONVENTIONS.

The Florida Convention met yesterday, and by
tomorrow the Peninsular State will be out Of tho
Union. On next Monday the Conventions of both
Mississippi and Alabama will meet--and before the
close Of the week both of those States will be free
and Independent Commonwealth, taking their po-
stons alongside of South Carolina. Georgia comes
soon afterwards, and will range herself in line with
her sister Commonweaths on both sides. And
then the other States will come out, one by one,
until the Confederacy of the fifteen States of the
South will be an accomplished fact before the mid
die of summer.
Now, then, what is the use of talking about Co
operation? What is there about cooperation but a
vague idea, ndefnable and impractcable? What,
in truth, is meant by cooperation? We hear the
word glibly used, but nobody explains what ii
means. When is cooperation to be had? Where
By uhom? Who are to be the parties to it? Are
the States already out of the Union to be admitted
when the Conference is held? By whom is the
Conference to be called, and under what rules and
regulations as to representation? What are they
to do, even supposing that they meet, except tc
decide whether to stay in the Union or to go out Of
it? If the former, there is no use for Conference
and if the latter, the effect of it will have already
been destroyed by the separate secession of al
least six or seven Of the States.
These are practical questions which no coopera
tionst can attempt TO answer without finding him
self involved in all sorts of absurditcs and incon
sistencies. Until, therefore, we can have some
clear, distinct and well-defned meaning attached
to the word, we insist that it ought not to be us2t
as the symbol Of Southern unity.
