TEE LATEST wAB NEWS.

We have some good news from the great
Southern expedition, though no intelligence Of
its landing has yet reached US. The MoDti-
cello, of the blocka3iDg feet stationed at Sa-
yannah, came to Fortress Monroe on Monday,
and reported that the squadron was on Satur-
dsy night within thirty miles Of Bull Bay; the
storm which the feet had encountered, and In
which one or two of the vessels suffered to some
extent, lad abated, and everything looked well
for the expedition. Concerning the destination
of the feet we have two copjectures-One from
the officers of the Monticello, the other from
the columns of a Norfolk paper. The former
say that it has probably before this time
entered at Bull Bay; the latter state
that its destination is known to be Port
Royal. If the troops have landed at
Bull Bay, their frat blow is undoubtedly
aimed at Charleston, which lies twenty-five
miles south of it, and to reach which two
rivers must be crossed. If they land at Port
Royal, they are to take Beaufort, S. c. Beau
fort being taken, they will be between Charles
ton $50 miles north) and Savannah (about 80
miles SOUTH On Monday as many as sixty
negroes came into Fortress Monroe. They re-
port that the Rebels have been leaving Great
Bethel, Yorktown, and the vicinity Of Norfolk,
but whittier they have gone the refugees did
not know.
Our intelligence from the fight between
Floyd and Rosecrans, at Gauley River, is yet
fragmentary and by no means clear 1t still
appears, however, that our arms have been
successful, and that Floyd has probably been
STACKED in the rear. All accounts agree in
this, Though few details have reached us.
There is a report at Norfolk, and also at
Richmond, to the effect that Gen. Beauregard
has resigned the command of the Rebel army.
No cause for the step is mentioned.
We have report from Washington which
says that Gen. Wool has resigned. 1t rests
apparently on good authority although no Off
cisl information Of the fact has been re
ssived.

Hiram Ketchum for Judge of the Marine
Court and Abraham r. Lawrence for District
Attorney are beaten because their names were
on no party ticket. Had they been on any
one of the three party tickets, their success
would have been triumphant. As it is the
vote polled for them is a proud tribute to the
public consciousness of their capacity anl
worth. They are neither our political nor
personal associates; we supported them because
of their eminent fitness, and we would do so
again tomorrow though certain of defeat.

a resolution contemplating amendments TO the

Wet2ei, offered resolu tons on the same sub
lect which were tabled. petition from Mr..
COLLIER of Petersburg, relating to the national
troubles, was referred to the Committee on
Federal Relations. A report fixing the COM

Of Roc kbridge, submitted resolutions demand

wrongs opposed to going into any Confedera-
cy which had for its objects the re-opening Of
the African slave trade, free trade, or direct
taxation and proposing to go into Coniedera-
cy on the basis of the CRITTESDEy resolutions
or their equivalent. Mr.. MOORE sustained his
resolu tons in an anti secession speech, which
was replied to by Mr.. GooDE, of Bedford. Be-
fore the last-named gen tleman concluded, the
President was compelled TO give an order to
clear thegalleries, in cOnseq uence of a popular
demonstration, and the further considera-

One of the mitigating circumstances of an
attempt at coercion would be the de velopment
of u fact which we have often endeavored to
impress upon our readers, that society in the
United States is not SO much divided upon
slavery by geographical lines as is generally
supposed. 1t is not true now as we have
said a hundred tiincs-it never was and never
war upon the social system of the South. 1t
is the Puritan element of the North which
does so-now in the majority, no doubt; but
there has always been a powerful minority
who, from their cradles up, have refused to
bow the neck to this spiritual despotism, not
alone upon the slavery subject, but upon
every subject on which it has attempted to
force it's peculiar ideas of morals upon the
public sentiment We are not surprised,
therefore, to see generous and chivalric souls,
like stockton, throwing down the gauntlet to
the fanatics who threaten the coercion Of the
South. And, let us add. this will be most
effectual check to coercion. Once convince
these gentry that there will be fighting upon
their own soil, and they will become meek,
patient and forgiving

Weed and Greeley.

These two dis tinguisned leaders of the Black
Republican cohorts show signs Of compro-
mise. 1t is now believed that WEED has the
inside track for the spoils, fact which har-
rows the sensibiiities of the patriotic HORACE
to the core. He processes TO have no taste nor
scent for the official larder, never theless, be-
cause Mr. SEWARD, in the innocence of his I'M
sophis tica ted nature, did not offer him that

crushing as the dagger with which "the well
beloved BRuTUs" stabbed the Roman tyrant.

Feb. 49,, the object of which is to promote
the introduction of Southern spun cotton
yarns into the markets of France, Belgium,
Switzerland, Germany and Russia The Con-
yention was largely attended by cotton plan
ters and others. A report was adopted, in
favor Of making mp complete set Of samples
Of Southern spun yarns to be forwarded to
Europe and Of taking steps to obtain accurate
information from abroad as TO prices styles,
numbers and kinds of cotton yarns saleable in

dressed by Messrs. FULroS, BKuABY, DAYTON

statement Of the financial, commercial and in
dnstrial issues bound mp in the political fut ure
Of the South. He argued that separate political
existence. unaccompanied by financial and
commercial independence, was but the shadow
without the substance OF liberty. A resolution
was adopted in favor Of Cotton Spinners' and
