1t appears from the investigation of the

Floyd accepted A. r. Belknap's bid for one

Secretary Holt refused to recognise the con.
tract. Mr.. Belknap says they were intended
for the Sandman Government.
1t is further shown that Mr.. Floyd distribut.
ed, without any order, through the Engineer
department, sirty: :tfue thousand percussion mus
keis, forty thousand altered muskets, and ten
thousand rifles, among the arsenals at Charles

and North Carolina. With the exception OF
those for the lastnamed State, the arms oil
fell into the possession of South Carolina, Ala
bama, Louisiana and Georgia, by their seces.
sion movements.
The committee give as their reason for re.
porting the bill authorizing the President TO
accept the services of volunteers, that it is Ger.
tain that the regular military force is wholly
inadequate TO project the forts, arsenals, and
dock yards, and other property of the United
States, in the present distracted condition Of
the country, the larger portion of the army
being necessary for the defence of the frontiers.

The Virginia Convention.

Richmond FeJ. l9.-The speech of Mr..
Preston, Commissioner from South Carolina,
is pronounced to have been the grandest ora.
torical effort ever made here, and excited i'm.
mense applause. His principal point was, that
South Carolina, having borne years of aggres
sion in the Union, had exercised the right Of
secession, and was prepared for resistance to
the death. The Union could never be recon
structed, unless power shall unfx the economy
of God. Nc sanctity Of human touch could
reunite the people of the North and South.
He expressed full confidence in Virginia's
going with the Southern Confederacy.
Mr.. Hall, of Wetzel, introduced resolutions
that Virginia has q legal right to secede that
the mere election of Mr.. Lincoln was not just
ground for secession; but since a portion Of
the South has seeded, leaving the border States
greatly in a minority in Congress, Virginia
should demand additional guarantees and
proper amendments to the Constitution /; that
she should present on ultimatum to the North.
ern States, and tx time beyond which she
will not watt and if she fail in these, Virginia
should take the proper steps to secure her just
rights out Of the Union.
These resolutions were referred to the Com
mittee on Federal Relations.
