western Virginia.

The Wheeling Convention adopted
resolutions condemnatory Of the Rich
mond usurpation, urging everybody to
vote on the 23d, and creating Central
Committee, to exercise provisional pow
ers over the objects contemplated in the
call of the Convention, should an emer-
gency require before the election Of q
new and larger body, to be chosen June
4th and to meet June 18th.
From careful examination Of the
different reports, we gather that the Con-
yention declined to adopt, at the present
time, any one of the three schemes for
organizing a new Government. (.
we infer that the following views Of
the NV York Evening Post fairly en-
BODY the "sobor second thought" of the
Convention. .T
"There is rumor that the convention
will rrobal ly determine on secession
from the State. We trust they will do
nothing of the kind. They arc men
who proclaim themselves faithful to the
Union and the Constitution. But the
Constitution says: "No new State shall
be formed or erected within the jurisdic-
ton of any other State, nor any State be
formed by the junction Of tao or moro
States, without the consent of the Legls-
lature of the States concerned, as well as
of the Congress.
"The rebels are violators Of the Con-
stitution. We who support it must also
obey it. We trust to sec the men OF
Western Virginia taking a wiser and
higher stand. They form the true com
monwealth of Virginia. They, her loyal
citizens, are the only ones who have
right to speak for her or in her name
1t is the traitors who now hold the east
ern part of the State by force of arms,
who have seeded from the State. Let
the faithful districts of Virginia take care
to elect good Union men to the next
Congress. Let them raise their quota
of troops for The Government. Let them
act in all ways as bese,ms the State of
Virginia; and then we may hope to see
the whole State restored shortly to law
and order, peace and safety"
This is good advice, and is inspired,we
have reason to believe, by tho Lincoln
Administration. Western Virginia will
act on the maxim, "Be sure you are
right, and then so ahead"
Believing ourreaders equally interested
with ourselves in this movement, we
shall watch it closely and give full par
ticulars of its progress.-,Saint Paul
Press.

IOok Out for Breakers.

There is no system of Banking. private
or public, in the United States that can
be safely depended upon. In ordinary
circumstances, most of them can be re-
lied on, but in emergencies ike those
which ara now experienced. there is not
one of them that is perfectly safe. The
surest way in times ike these is for eve
nv one to become his own banker, and
to make assurance-doubly sure-every
dollar put into Banks should be Con-
stitational dollar aud deposited in his own
Bank, 10 this way your money will not
be injurieusIy affected by Bank failures,
panies or ether causes which depreciate
everything but real money, the standard
of all value. Els rs
That there is more breakers ahead is
selfeyident, and that there will be
a universal crashing among the
Banks, more terrible than In '37 is to ap-
psrant to be denial.

Cost Of the War.

1t would not be out of place TO count
upon the probable cost of tho war, at
least indulge in few speculations. 1t
costs about one thousand dollars to out
fit and keep soldier one year This in
cludes all expenses of arms, clothing,
food and transportation, but it does not
include the ravages necessarily and often
times wantonly committed by troops in
their progress through the country. At
this estimate, which is nearly correct, of
q thousand dollars to maintain each SOL
on war footing, and that we shall prob
ably have 100000 men in the field be-
fore long, we have an aggregate cost for
their maintenance for one year, of two
hundred millions of dollars.
Another item is that which is beyond
computution-the loss consequent upon
the depreciation of stocks; the failure of
banks; the arrangement of business; the
suspension of manufacturing establish
ments. and works of internal improve
ments the interruption of commerce,
net only upon the high seas, but even
upon the navigable rivers all these
form an aggregate of evils that cannot be
computed by figures.
And lastly, but far from the least, is
the calamity, pecuniary and social-of
the ravages, devastations, spoilations and
destruction comm tilted by armies in an
enemies country, and especially in fra
tricidal war. Who can estimate the
amount Of this destruction that is about
to be committed Who can imagine
the pogancy of grief which will be in
ficted on thousands of households p
Who can picture tho scenes of horror, of
cruelty, of ravage, of devt station, of
personal outrage. which will be commit
ted by an infuriated soldiery 2

WASHINGTON, May 10.

w AoHINGTON, May 1 ..
The announcement of a new military
department including Virginia, North
Carolina and Tennessee has added in
tensely to the war excitement. A fur
Their announcement that the conn and
was assigned to Gen. Butler is no way
diminished this feeling. General Scott,
Mansfield, and Butler have been in con-
sutation with Mr.. Cameron, must of the
day. The Massachusetts 5th and 9Th
regiment have received orders this P. M.
to prepare for an instant start.
A battery Of IL guns on Acquia Creek
was discovered, also extensive earth works
near its mouth.
Last night three Zouaves strayed from
camp, and on arriving before Colonel
Ellsworth's quarters this morning, one
of them unwound from his body secess-
ion flag, seventeen feet long, which they
had hauled down from q pole at Alex
andria.
A person direct from Richmond. who
saw Gov. LetcLer night before last, re-
ports the Governor TO be very much
frightened, and to have said that he
hoped and believed there would be no
fighting.
Dispatches to the World says that by
Wednesday 1t is believed that 10000 of
our soldiers will be encamped on Airing
ton Heights. ~.
Secretary Cameron declined to accept
four Maryland regiments, offered by Gov.
Hicks, simply for the defence of that
State or the District of Columbia. The
Governor has entirely mistaken the ten
or of the Secretary's explanation, and if
Marylanders enlist, they must enter the
general service. 20 q 30. a.
A letter received here from the editor
of a Memphis paper, formerly a resident
Of Washington, states that provisions are
very scarce in that city all business ruin
ed, and that soldiers are not coming
forward as rapidly as was anticipated,
President Lincoln has been absent
from home nearly all day, accommodating
in the vicinity of Washington.
1t is decided that no more troops will
be accepted by the Government under
the last requisition. either from New
York or elsewhere. Some 100000 men
are enlisted.
A special correspondent of the Herald
says that Memphis is in deplorable state.
Troops are constantly arriving and being
transferred to Fort Randolph. The uni
versal talk there was the ease with which
the North can be conquered.
A Union man was hung in Louisiana
few days since for expressing Union
sentiments.
