declared that II the Presidents response was un-
favorable they would 60 for immediate secession.

President would he favorable TO peace
Other members addressed the convention in op-
position, and declared that the object Of the

The movements Of the fleets were frequently
alluded to In the progress of the debate, and the
ground assumed was that Virginia having by the
vote on Thursday indicated her policy against Sc
ceslon, she had the right to know what these
