In our tclcgraphic columns will be found an account of what has been done jn that body, now sitting at Little Rock. The time seems to have generally been taken up by speeches from members of the Convention and the Commissioners from South Carolina and Georgia, upon the political troubles of the country. Nothing definite has yet been set tied upon. Col. R. G. PAYNE, of Memphis and Hons. R. H. JOHNSON and T. C. HIND MAN have addressed the members of the Convention upon the subject of secession.

No such person in the State or State Convention could remain in the Union, and assist or countenancc q Black Republican President in making war upon the people of those seven sister States for the purpose of bringing them back under his rule, whether they desired it or not.

President Davis was born in Todd county. Kentucky, in 1908. Lincoln was born in Harden county, in the year l8O9 Vice President Breckinridge was born in Fay ette county, in 1921. Senator Crittenden was born in Woodland county, in l7S6. Jas. Guthrie, the chairman on compromise resolu- tions in the Peace Conference, was born in Nelson county, in 1795 Joseph Holt, the late Secretary of War, is native of Brock inrdge county, Major Anderson was born in Kentucky, in 1895. Gen. Harney sis also a Kentuckian, and Cassius Clay, both of whom arc somewhat connected with the current crisis.

/FoRT SUMTER FIRED INTo.-Thc Charles ton. Courier of Saturday says: |" The firing heard between seven and eight Friday morn ing, was from the battery known as-Stcvens' Iron Battery, on Morris island. The troops, with Major Stevens in command, were en- gagged in practicing at the guns with blank cartridges. Several gentlemen, who were spectators, after the firing Of one of the guns. observed ball to strike near the gate or door of Fort Sumter. Major Stevens was appriscd of the fact, and immediately went to Fort Sumter under white flag, and informed Ma jor Anderson that the shot was purely acci- dental. No one was aware that any of the guns were shotted. The ball struck the granite on the wharf, in front of the ga.c, leaving a white streak in its passage, and fell in the water toward the city. The easements of Fort Sumter were not opened at the time, as has been reported They were opened two hours afterwards merely for the purpose of ventilation, and not with any hostile intent"

SOME of our subscribers whose papers reach them by the Brownsville wayside post office Of Walnut Plains, informs us that they frequently do not receive them until they have been sent to Brownsville, and then re- turned to their destination. As the package for Walnut Plains is not directed to be sent by the way of Brownsville, it seems somewhat singular that it so often selects that route.

MR. ETHERIDGE AND THE FORCE BILL We are proud to sec that the te,cgraphtc dcs- patches which announced few days ago that our representative in Congress, voted Tor the Stanton Force Bill, are absolutely false h. stead of supporting it he is the ch eff opponent of the measure. 1he telegraph of late has become mere tell tale conccrn-whollv un- rcliablc-and people should place confidence in no despatch until confirmed by some rea- ble authority. We could not at first believe that Mir. Etheridge would be so untrue to the South as to enable the lawlc3s abolitonists- who respects neither the laws of God nor the Constitution Of thc.r coantry-to inauguratc civil war-a war of extermination-whi must inevitably prove the destruction of the nation. Coercion is but declaration of war, and hanging would bc death too honorable for either those in the North who deny the South liberal coucesS Sons and thus imperil all or those per SC disun;onists who in order to unite the slave States, are using every means to bring on a civil war.

EoTE IN TIE RECENT ELECTIoN-Thc following is gleaned from the returns of the late elections:
 Union vote, 23,G2G Secession, l7,927 Union majority, 5,G90 The foregoing is the result of comparing the number of votes for the leading candidates on each side There were scattering votes given for both Union aud Secession candi- dates these reduce the aggregate vote, but do not materially vary the result. There were probably 2O,U00 in the Stite who did not turn out to the election. It would bc d fair estimate to say that at least two-thrds of the non-voting citizens are Union men.
 The vote on the Convention stood as fJl- lows:
 For Convention, 27,412 Against, l5,S26 Majority for Convention, 11.5S6 Showing that, though the people of Arkan- sas arc decidedly for the Union if 1t can be preserved with their rights, yet they are in favor of an adjustment of the difficult qucs- tions which now conyulse the public mind and threaten destruction to the country.
