should be recognized, and the following or

1t will be observed that the conven-
ton exercised no power save what was i'm d.
periously demanded by the exigencies of
the times. They formed no new Govern
ment, but retained the old. They provided
for the assembling of the Legislature at
Wheeling on the first day of July, 1861. The
members Of both General Assembly and
Senate, comprising that Legislature, with
the exception of few vacancies, had been
elected duly and regularly before the State
seeded.
In the prosecution of their undertaking to
wrest the State from conspirators and trail
tors, the battle bugle of the convention bic W
no uncertain sound. They did not ask to
have the line between treason and LOYALTY
clearly, distinctly, and definitely laid down,
III order that they might see how near they
could dress up to the former, without run
ming the risk of hemp. They we're at heart
for the Union, and made no nice distinctions
against it. Thorough" was their motto.
Thus Virginia was Ike pit on the con-
stitutional track. In those mountainous re
gions the Thermopylp passes where free
dom's most holy affairs have ever been raised
and where her fires have burned brightest,
treason found no resting place. The motto

true as to her in those dark days of 1861, as
