How 1T WAS DoNE.-we presume that all are
well aware that the ordinance Of secession by the
Virginia Convention was secured by system Of
terrorism and mob rule that far exceeded any
thing Of the kind brought to bear upon the con-
ventons Of any other nominally sec ded State
Rumor has 1t that there were but seven votes In
the negative-Mr. Carlile, and another gallant
Union patriot, having barely escaped from Rich
msnd alive, before the vote was taken. Mr. Car
lilies lodgings were surrounded during the night
before he escaped by some hundred young men
and nearly grown boys, engaged discussing the
best means Of getting hold of and hanging him;
they were Of course terribly over-stimulated with
bad whisky. Messrs. jackson Of Wood, A. II.
n. Stuart and Baldwin were among the seven
nays, and their lives were of course in imminent
danger. II 10 to be hoped for the future of Viz
ginia that they have gotten out Of Richmond
alive
Virginia, by a majority Of 81 ,OOSpopular votes,
directed that any ordinance OF secession the Con-
vention might pass should be submitted to and
affirmed by the people at the polls, before going
into effect The Convention have doubtless
laughed 10 scorn any such idle ceremony. Respect
for the WI Of the people is no longer the law Of
the land wherever secession seizes upon the Gov
srnmenti, and we see no reason to believe that the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. have paid more respect for
the popular will, than those Of Georgia, Alabama
or Louis Jana.

details O. the means by which the Virginia Con-
vention !Tere induced to place Virginia in the
position pr taking off the hands of the Gulf States

munitions and all the material of war by land
and sea. 1t is manifestly Of great importance
that they should be such officers as will keep
pace with the rapid and vigorous movements Of
our young generals. If water and fuel are not
supplied in abundance, and the right kind Of
men are not placed in charge Of the fires and
the steam boilers, it is impossible for the engi-
neer of the Ship of State to make good time, or
for her commander and crew to give good &C.
count of themselves.
We perceive that the Southern papers bitterly
complain of the Incidence and neglect of their
War Department, to which they attribute the
failure OF Beauregard to make such use of his
victory at Manassas as to have captured the
whole Union army and the city Of Washington.
We apprehend that the Union has been cheated
out of greater victories by the insctivity ana
incompetence of the subordinates incur Navy
and War Departments.

regarded in England as one calculated
to enable Canada to preserve her provincial
integrity against all complications and shows forth
the identity of interest existing between Great
Britain and the colony. The London Times was
still exercised on the subject of the capacity and
Willingness of the Union citizens of the North to
endure taxation for purposes of war. The same
journal expects that the high price of cotton is
certain to free some of the staple, and intimates
that it may find its way from Texas to the ports of
