Western Virginia Convention.

WHEELING, June ~.
The time Of the Convention to-day was
occupied with debate on the Ordinance
recognizing the State Government.
MIR. West, of Wetzel, offered an amend
ment that no one who voted for secession
be allowed to hold office in the State
during the war.
MIR. Martin said that secessionists in
his county were in the habit of taking
the oath and afterward regulating it.
Men had to learn to disregard the oath to
be good secessionists.
The amendment was lost-ayes 10,
nays &C.
The Ordinance finally passed-73 to 3.
The Ordinance provides for an entire
reorganization of the State Government.
Every officer will be obliged to swear
allegiance anew to the United States, and
repudiate the Richmond Convention.
The Convention will now proceed to
choose Governor and Council for the
new State. A seal, and other emblems
of authority, have been ordered.

Movements of Col. Sfone-Skirmish

WASHINGTON, June 10.
Reliable accounts received from Pooles-
vile, dated 9 o'clock last night. say that
Col. Stone was still there and not at
Leesburg, as reported.
Yesterday afternoon the enemy attempt
ed to make crossing of Goose Creek, in
ferry boat opposite Edwards ferry. with
force estimated at from 500 to 1000
men.
Col Stone had given orders that if any
attempt was made to move the boat, to
fire upon it. In compliance with these
orders Lieut. Hasbrook fired spherical
chase shot which covered the boat with a
shower of bullets and fragments.
The boat was rapidly drawn back to
shore. The enemy then formed in line
along the bank and commenced firing,
but few well-directed spherical chase
shots dispersed them and sent them flying
toward Leesburg.
1t is untrue that the masked battery
at Vienna had been taken also, the re-
port that Federal troops have taken quiet
possession of Fairfax Court House. There
is official authority for both these denials.

Needed Reform.

While the great North West is pouring
forth its brave men, organized and armed,
there is strong evidence either Of incompe-
tency or neglect, on the part Of company,
regiment and brigade commanders. There Is
too much lettering away of precious time
among those who, from the moment they en-
ter service, should devote all their time and
energies in drilling and disciplining their COM
mands. After entering camp, officers and
men have no more right to be absent from
their duties than they would have when in
presence of the enemy. When in camp, or
quarters. company and battalion drills shouo
be regular, and every man required to pa'tiel-
pate. There is no use trying to disguise the
fact that our enemies are better schooled IN
military evoluticns than ourselves. We
want something more than d"ess parades TOR
show and ostentation. Our battaons should
be able to maneuvre skihful!y on the field,
whether it bs for depoy as skirmlshers-to
resist cavalry, or change the front OF battle or
any other movement, either OF which, we
venture to say, most of our troops now in
service cannot perform. There are too many
French gentlemen in service, fond of exhibit
ing gold lace, buff trimmings and bright but
tons. If they are really in earnest let them
work-first, to school themselves, and then
their men. The day is too far spent to longer
triAe. Too many lives have already been
sacrificed They can only be avenged by
perfected drills, thorough discipline, backed
by indomitable wills. More lives have been
lost and more blunders committed from a
want of military instruction and skill than
from any other cause. These are no militia
parade days, but days that demand all the
of the people. Let US mend our
ways.

PARrING WORDS OF GENERALS SCOTT AND
McCIE1LAN.-Previous to the old hero's de-
parture from Washington, the retiring and
incoming chieftains Of the American Army
bid each other an affectionate fare veil. Gen.
Mcclellan, with his staff, bowed to the vet
eran chief, whom he had just succeeded. Ger.
Scott, sitting, from inability to rise, extended
his hand to his successor, and they talked for
some minutes with hands claspcd. In this
position Gen. Scott, drawing Mcclellan near
to him, said:
General, do not allow yourself to be EN-
barassed by men who do rot understand this
great question. Carry out your own ideas,
act upon your own judgment, and you vii!
conquer, and the Government will be vindl'
Gated. God bless you."
The young chieftain's only reply was:
81 thank you, General, and will not forget
your council. May you be restored to health
and live to see your prophecy fulfilled. God bs
with you. Farewell"

~ There is a serious political complication
in Kansas, which may be aggravated to the
production of the worst results by the perso-
nal hostility between Gov. Robinson and Gen
Lane and their respective parties. The dem
ocrats are with Lane in asserting that accord
ing to the constitution an election for Cover
nor must take place on the 5th, while Gov.
Robinson and his party are acting upon a
law passed by the Legislature, which declares
that the election for State officers shall not
take place until November, 1862. George A.
Crawford has been nominated by the constl-
tuition men for Governor, while Gov. Robinson
and his friends are determined that no change
shall be made in the State Offices, except to
fill vacancies, until next year.

Port Royal.

The telegraph, this morning, informs us
that the great feet has attacked Port Royal,
South Carolina. This is about 80 miles
south of Charleston, whereas previous re-
ports stated that the Decentralization Of the
feet was Bulls Bay, which is north of
Charleston. Port Royal has the best channel
through the bars to be found below Norfolk.
1t has more than twenty feet Of water in the
sha!lowest place, from the outer bar to Beau-
fort. The harbor is capacious, and has long
been held to be superior, either to Charleston
or Savannah.
Beaufort is small town, not easily defend
ed from the sea, within ten miles OF the
Charleston and Savannah Railroad, twenty
Eve miles or so from Savannah, and fifty or
sixty from Charleston. A strong force at
Bea lfort would thus threaten both of those
cities on the side unprotected by the forts,
whiie the possession Of Beaufort and Port
