THE RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED BY THE ALEX
ANDRIA CoNvENTIoN.-Our telegram OF
Saturday morning merely stated that the
resolutions of the committee were revised
and adopted. The revision made tho
roughly changed the preamble and the first
resolution, which we therefore publish
below:
"Whereas, while we rejoice that the ex-
ecutive and legislative branches OF the
Government both profess to desire the cs-
adjustment of the great principle that
those only who arc loyal should be con-
suited in the reorganization of the State
governments for those States lately in re-
bellion, and both at different times have
expressed their appreciation of provision
of law extending the right of suffrage to
the colorcd race: therefore
I" ReSOlued, That no recognized State
government of Virginia should be recog-
nized by the Government of the United
States which does not exclude from suf-
frage and holding office, at least for term
of years, all persons who have voluntarily
given moral or material support to rebel
lion against the United States, and which
does not, with such disfranchiscment, pro-
vide for the immediate REIMBURSEMENT OF
all Union men, without distinction OF
color"
So that negro suffrage is one of the
planks in the platform of the "Union "
party of Virginia. "Whom the gods would
destroy they first make mad"

THE PERSONNEL OF THE ALEXANDRIA
CoNvENTIoN.-Thcrew were about sixty per-
sons who voted i'm this Convention, and
though seventeen counties were asserted
to be represented, many of those seventeen
had only one representative, and many OF
the representatives stated that they had
come, as they expressed it, "on their own
hook" and without being delegated to
come by any vote or voters in their re-
spcctivc counties. OF the entire number
present not more than dozen were born
in Virginia, and a more ordinary looking
body of men we never behold. OF the
intellectual and educational attachments
of the convention, all who attended its SEES
sions have, to say the least, by no means
an exalted opinion.-Alerondria gazette.

MAKING TREASON ODIoUs.-During the
discussion at the Alexandria Convention
to-day it was authoritatively stated that
Mr.. Goodwin, the recently appointed naval
officer for the port Of Norfolk, held clerk
shipin Washington before the war, which he
resigned to go to Richmond, and served
twelve months In the rebel army. The incl
dent was cited to illustrate that, while Con-
gress is striving to make treason crime,
the President, contrary to oil his antece-
dents, is parading the act of rebellion as q
very respectable hut injudicious under

the Crimcan war, Devcnseighths OF the
mortality Of tho British troops during the
entire campaign were due to disease; and
only one cighth from wounds received in
action.
The comparison between the mortality
among white soldiers and that amongst the
blacks il quite remarkable. Number OF
whites enlisted, almost exactly 2,5o0,ooo'
Number of deaths, Isl, l22, or one "a ten.
The number Of colorcd troops, 10000, OF
whom 29,29s died, or about one ~ sir.
The mortality among the blackswas nearly
double that among the whites, but the con-
trast as to those who died of disease is
still more striking: Out of every eight
deaths among the whites, three died on the
battle field, and five from disease. Out Of
every nine deaths among the blacks, one
died on the field of battle, and eight from
disease. The negrophilists at the north at
tribute this disparity to the fact that the
black man had been enfcebled by slavery.
There could be nothing more false. No
man who has any respect for his veracity,
and who is not mailman, will have the
hardihood to deny that the African, under
the bencfcent influence of southern slave
~, had attained to a degree of physical
strength and energy, and had acquired a
resolution and manhood never attained by
him in his native land. The late southern
slave can drive before him, at will, three
or five to one, the aborigincs of his father
land

Mr.. DAVIS ENUMERATED BY HIS BITTER
EST ENEMIEs.-The New York Times makes
the following announcement, which will
not surprise any man who knows Mr.. Davis,
so far as the fact is concerned, though it
may surprise them to learn that Radicals
in the House Of Representatives have even
SO much grace left:
at is reported upon good authority that
the Judiciary Committee have come to the
conclusion that the evidence produced be-
fore them does not warrant the charge that
JEFF. Davis is guilty of completely in the
assassination of Mr.. Lincoln"
The Fortress Monroe correspondent OF
the Herald says:
"Mr. Davis expressed great surprise at
the brevity and comparative simplicity of
the indictment. He evidently expected to
find it much more elaborate paper, and
embodying great multiplicity of charges
against him, including not only the grave
one Of melting and directing the rebellion,
but the grave accusations of instigating the
assassination of President Lincoln, con-
Quoting the Canada raids, setting on foot
the wholesale incendiary schemes against
northern cities, authorizing and controlling
the piratical expeditions on the high seas
that played such havoc with our maritime
commerce, counselling and abetting the in
humanities practiced upon our prisoners
in short, as being the head and front and
impersonation of the rebellion, and all the
battles and loss of lives and waste of money,
and sufferings and miseries growing out OF
it. Seeing but the single count that is
brought against him, am assured, gives
him more abiding hope Of a favorable result
to himself in his coming trial. Each day
only increases his anxiety for the speedy
approach Of the time Of his trial."
