WASHINGTON, Feb 26.-The postponement
of the volunteer bill is its virtual defeat.
The conference, today, after voting down
Mr.. Franklin's substitute, are in the same pc.
sition as a week ago. Some of the southern
commissioners are much discouraged, but are
comforted by the assurances of those of other
sections, that they will endeavor to reconcile
the conflicting views on slavery to morrow.
The senate portion of the conference com.
mittee, on the tea and coffee amendment to the
tariff, agreed to recede and recommend con
current action, which will probably result in
passing the whole bill.
Messrs. Trumbull, on the part of the SEN
ate, Washburne of Illinois, and Burlingame,
on the part of the house, waited on Messrs.
LINCOLN and HAMLIN tonight, and furnished
them with certificates from Mr.. Breckenridge
and Speaker Pennington, of their election.
They formally accepted.
The first proposition to be voted on to-mor-
row, in@he house is that of Burch and Stout,
recommending a national convention.
A memorial received to-day, signed by all
the republicans of the New Jersey legislature,
recommending Colfax for postmaster general.
A strong pressure is making to induce
Secretary Holt to accept the nomination Tor
the supreme bench, if Judge Black is with
drawn. This is the only nomination for that
position which has the slightest chance of con-
firmation.

The Virginia Convention.

RICHMOND, Feb. 26.-In the convention,
Mr.. Goode finished his speech, affirming the
duty of Virginia to go with the south. Mr..
Goggin offered resolutions that it is the duty
of Virginia to cooperate with the border states
to provide measures for concurrent action
hereafter; that Virginia is attached to the
Union as it was, but it does not protect her
rights, and in the event of failure to obtain
relief, it is her duty to provide for the future
relations she is to occupy as one of the south
ern states. Mr.. Goggin made long speech,
denying the constitutional right of secession,
but holding that it was a revolutionary remedy
for wrongs. He wanted a consultation of the
border states to form confederacy and invite
others to join. He believed Virginia would
be insecure in the southern contederacy Ad-
journed.
In consequence of Mr.. Moore's speech
against secession i'll the convention, yesterday,
the secessionists called an indignation meet
ing Fifteen hundred persons assembled near
the Exchange HOTEL and strong southern
speeches were made by delegates. Mr.. Wise
was called for, but was unwell. The assembly
then adjourned to the Spottswood House,
where more speeches were made. An attempt
was made to burn Moore in effigy, but was
stopped by the mayor. The whole demon,
stration, it is said, was gotten up by negro
traders.
