THE ARCHER GUNS.

A great excitement has been raised at Richs
mond, over some cannon, contracted for by
the Government two or three years ago, with
DR.. Archer Of Virginia, and upon which con
tract some partial payments have been made.
1t seems that the guns were ready for delivery
at the end oflast year, but that Mr.. Archer, in
the expectation that the State might wish to
buy them, did not offer to deliver them to the
United States. Finding that Virginia did not
propose to purchase, and needing his money,
Mr.. Archer notified the United States of his
readiness to deliver to them, which has led to
the recent uproar. The United States were
ready to receive the guns, and to pay for them,
but, naturally enough, wished the delivery made
where they could have secure control of the
property paid for.
In the Virginia House Of Delegates, on
Thursday, the following resolutions having ref
erence to the subject were passed by vote of
95 to 81:
"Whereas the people of Virginia, in Conven.
ton, are now openly considering whether they
shall resume the power delegated by them to
the General Government, and are almost
unanimous in the opinion that the exercise OF
such right, in the recent and present state of
the country, by any of the States should not
be sought to be controlled or followed by re.
sort to force and the failure of the President of
the United States fully to explain his intended
policy in this respect gives just cause of mis-.
trust be it therefore

ginta, That, under existing circumstances, a

riously demands that no movement of arms, or
increase OF armament or troops of the General
Government, within its limits, should be au.

ing the public peace.
Resclred, That the Governor communicate
the foregoing resolutions to the President of
the United States"
The proceedings in the Senate are thus given
in the Richmond Enquirer of Saturday morn.
ing:
/" The Senate Of Virginia, at its session of
last evening, passed some important resolutions
in relation to the contemplated removal of the
cannon from Bellona Arsenal to Old Point
Comfort. The reader will see in the proceed
ings of the Seuate, in another place, the reso,
lutions of Mr.. Douglas, and the reference of
the whole subject to the Committee on Military
Affairs.
"At seven o'clock the committee reported a
preamble and two resolutions, the first Of which
authorizes and directs the Governor to seize
and detain said guns for the use of the Com
monwealth, and to that end to order out the
Public Guard, and such portion of the militia
force as he may deem necessary to arrest the
contemplated removal of the guns beyond the
reach ano control Of the Government of this
State.
The second resolution authorizes and re.
quires the Governor to pay to DR.. Junus L.

The Fort Smith Timss has o letter dated
Seminole Agency, July ~, from which we make
the annexed extracts:
The Seminoles are now in council, consider
ing draft Of treaty Captain Pike submitted to
them. We shall have little or no trouble ia
making treaty with them. The Creeks rati.
fed their treaty by unanimous vote in their
council, every town being represented. Their
regiment will be ready in q few days, and pro-
badly half dozen companies more.
The Seminoles are, believe, all right. Two
or three persons endeavored to prevent treaty
being made by the Creeks. Hopotbleyohoo
and Ben Marshall have done all In their power
to keep them neutral, acting under the influence
and advice of John Ross. Itwas their right,
being Creeks, to act as their judgment and
sense of right dictated. Bntsoms persons from
abroad, acIuated by different motives also inter-
fered, with little credit and less profit to them.
