were so strongly denounced by Mr.. Foote
in his recent speech: THE secret session

which have befallen the country on &C
count Of capricious abuse Of the executive

he had consented to make the effort to
obtain thst Independence which no other
power on earth but the Yankees would
think of denying.
As 70 the conditions of peace, Davis
emphaticaIly asserted thst nothing save
the independence Of the Coniederscy
could ever receive his sanction. With
the approval of Providence, who. be con-
|scientiously believed, vas on their side,
and with the united resolve of the people,
be doubted not that victory would yet
crown their labors. Before reuniting he
would yield up everything he had on
earth, aud sacrifice thousand lives.
He spoke three quarters of an hour in
this strain.
A series of resolutions, spurning peace
on Lincoln's terms and expressing graft
tude TO the soldiers and pledging their
lives, their fortunes ard their sacred hon.
or, TO the cause, were adopted. Loud
calls were made for Stephens and Hunter,
