Dispatches to the New York Ilerald.
The Q,uestloti of Abandoning' Fort Pick-
euo.
Washihotor, March 80, 1661.
Tbe reports in regard to reinforcing Foil
Pickens, it is apparent, were put out for the
oole purpose of helping the Republican cause
in Conneotiout and Rhode Island. No such
orders have been issued, or been contemplated.
I reiterate my dispatch of some days since,
that within n very ehort period Fort Piekeos
will be evnounted. It is even now a matter of
almost impossibility to land supplies there,
and by the end of next week the administra
tion will find that it cannot make the attempt,
much less succeed.
THE POLICY OF THE SOUTHERN COM
MISSIONERS.
Washington, March JO, 18G1.
Tbe nervousness which has been privately
developing itself for two or three weeks past
at ihe South in regard to the policy of tbe
Confederate Stales Commissioners at Wash
ington, has broken out at last in a captions
leader in the New Orleans Della, which will
be followed up, it is understood, by a general
volley from the entire war wing of the seces
sionists. To the ability and cousumaiate tact
and address of the Commissioners, tbe country
is indebted for the peace it now enjoys, and
the removal of Federal troops from the seced
ed State*, which will soon take place. Their
policy has been “masterly inactivity'' from
the start—parley, diplomacy, the avoidance of
all abrupt issues, accepting every overture for
time, with the conscious kuowledge that if ike
administration could afiord to ask for delay
their true policy was to give it. By this means
an opportunity has been afforded President
Davis to concentrate an overwhelming force
on Fort Pickens, rendering its abandonment a
necessity, and affording time for deliberation
on the question, which must enure to interests
of peace.
Gentlemen of the Virginia Convention, (big
is what Greeley of the New York “Tribune’’
says of tbe report of your Committee. And
as Greeley’s “Tribune” is understood to speak
the sentiment of the Black Republican masses
of the Northern States, you will see what an
iuviting prospect there is for the “preservation
of this glorious Union,” through your benev
olent and patriotic exertions ! Hear what he
says:
The Virginia Convention, by a unanimous
vote yesterday, expressed its preference for
the report of the Committee on Federal Rela
tions, which will be found in full in our tele
graphic dispatches. It proposes that Slavery
shall be perpetual in all the territory South of
36° 30' now in possession of the United States,
or hereafter to be acquired ; that the Slave
holders shall have the right of transit with
their Slaves through all tbe Stales; that fugi
tive Slaves not given up shall be paid for; and
that persons of African descent shall not be
allowed to vote or to hold office. Aud these
propositions it is proposed to incorporate into
the Constitution, never to be amended or abol
iahed I If such are the term* on which Vir
ginia will iusist as a condition for remainisg
in the Union, we hope she will secede without
delay. They are too preposterous to be eveu
considered by the free States.
Greeley is mistaken. The final vote has not
yet been taken upon the report which he so
indignantly denounces.
r J he Missouri Legislature haa passed a reso
lution, declaring it inexpedient for the Gene
ral Assembly to take any steps for calling a
National Convention, to propose amendments
to tho Constitution. The vote was 02 to 42.
The North Carolina Legislature adjourned
without taking any steps for the appointment
of delegates to tbe proposed Border State Con
vention ; and Governor Ellis will take no step
in that direotion. How many other Slave
States will be represented, this deponent can
not say. But will Virginia go into the Border
State Convention without Missouri and North
Carolina? Will even the submissionists say
•he ought to do so?
Wa understand, by tha way, that the advo
cates of the Border State Convention, in this
region, advocate tbe appointment of delegates
by the Mechanics* Hail Convention, said dele
gates to be taken exclusively from tbe submis
sion party of tbe State. Tbe reader will see,
therefore, that they are for turning the “Bor
der State Convention” into a more meeting of
Union-shrieking politioiaos from Virginia,
Maryland, Kentucky and Tennessee. What
interest will the true hearted men of Virginia
feel in the proceedings of a body thus consti
tuted ? What respect will they pay to its au
thority ?
