Wo are in favor of a nominating Convention

this Btate, and iu a “scrub race” it Is possible
that a mint might be chorea who would not re
ceive one-fifth of tbo popular vote. Let us have
uo more partisan contents. Tho presence of a
common danger and the certainty of a common
fat© has buried old issues and parties, we trust,
beyond the hope or power f recurrection.
Let the people in the several counties, for*

fnfrienilly Altilade of ballot towards Liorolo’i tn
cnmnt...lt il! not allow llw Privateers to be
Irealrd as Pi rales.
Tho Northern press is bitter ou the lute news
from England. Tho Cincinnati Coroiuoruiui thus
refers to it .
The debate in tho British House of Lords, which
wo published in full yesterday, is certainly tbe
most unfavorable .sign yet of the altitude of tbo
iiritish Government towards the just side of tbia
great struggle. The Lord Chaucwllor went fur
ther than hud been previously reported, in bis
outrageous advocacy of tho rights of piracy. He
went #o fur ns to pronouuce that ihe United
Htntcs has no right to punish British privateers
ia Jeff. Davis’service aspirates! He added that
the war of the Confederate States against the
North was a just one, and their right ns bellig
erents was “admitted.” Hie words nrc:
“No one(* no Koglish subject), ought to be
regarded as :i pirate far acting under © commission
from the State admitted to bo entitled to tbe
exercise of belligerent rights, and carrying on
what might bo callod a j-tinm beUum. Anybody
dealing with a man under those oircutmtamcs
ss a pirate, and putting him to death* would be
guilty of murder.”
Lord Kingsdown followed the Lord Chancellor,
an 1 announced that “JCngland bad recognised
the seceding States as a body possessing tbe
rights of a belligerent}” that the “ex'ravagant
order of the Wasniogtcn Uover ment in reertncj
to privateering was a mere brvtcm fufmtn }’* or,
if not, that it “was a piece of barbarity which
would raise an outory throughout tie whole c;vi
lis©d world.” Earl Granriil , a member of tbe
Cabinet, threw in his sneer at tbe blockade of
the (iouthern coast, asserting that “mere paper
blockade would uot be recognistd.'’ and com
mented upon the “agreement of Puri- ns not
effecting a change in international law, except
iug a: regards those powers which sigoifUd their
of it,” thus ignoring the hist clause of
the Paris treaty, by which those who “might
hereafter” accept it, were placed on a par with
th*eo who had done so.
If those Poors wbo adhere to the Palmerston
Ministry wore thu explicit, iu tb©i quuti boa
tillity to tho United States, the lotas-of the
opposition were still more bo. “I appreh*.ad,”
fluid the Earl of Derby, “that, if tier© is oue
thing*clearer than another, it ia that, by
of nationa, privateering is not piracy; that no
enactment on tho part ts any one nation can
make that piracy ad regards th© subject o another
country which is not piracy by tbe ia-* of nuti- o°,
or by the lav. of thut oountry. The Non hem
Stater, therrfere, mutt not be allowed to enter tain
that opinion. It ii very important, Le added,
“that* Her Majesty’# Government should not
commit themselves to the doctrine tnat the
United State? are to lay down tbe principle ot a
universal blor!; e, and that that blocs.ado wi uld
be rocognired by Her Majesty's Government.”
Lord Chalma ord ‘''.'Ujmentflrd upon Iho serious
step tskeu bv tha Britich, in Cabinet, io “admit
ting tho Confederate States to be entitled to tbe
rights of btrlligcrerm*,” but il ttn, dear that
“idi utheru prtvntc vr could not b© treated ss
pir nto*.”
From the Richmond Despatch, June £.
TDF FIGHT AT PHILLIP! 1 !.
Coi. J. W. Spalding, of this city, who as a
participator in the rect.nt. light at I'bil ippi, gives
us th© following particulars of tbnt affair. Our
forces were posted in ihe ‘own oi l’htllippi, and
numbered in all about7oo tfltc.iV© fighting tnen.
The commanding oflioor, Col. Poruifield, Lav.tig
been informed on Sunday by a courageous lady,
who redo from Foirmount, in Marion county,
through the lines of the enemy ut Graft* n, Rod
thence to Pbilltppi, a dmiunvecl 2o miles, tout
it was tho purpose of tbe em my to attack us, aou
knowing his superior force, determined upon re
tiring to Bevetly, which is distant thirty miles.
Not having at hand the proper mode ot convey
ance, horses and wagons wore raiprereauu, with
a view of leaving at midnight.
It is stated that an older wa# issued for the
pickets, outpoets and scouts to be in at 11 o\ lock,
on buuday night, and this order was ob yed—
The baggage of the respective cum panics was
placed upon the wagons, hut lor some reasun,
bust known to the commanding officer, theboreeft
were uot attached, aud they were left stuudiug .a
the street.
It was iu this position of affairs that on tho
morning oi Moodiiy, about daylight, the enemy
opened fire upon u- from a two gun bauery of
six poundora, posted upon n crowned point, upon
tho opposite shore ot the Tygart*’ Vulley River,
which successfully cctntiiaculod the campa of the
Churchville Cava ry, of Augusta, and the Cavalry
of Rockbridge, numbering about one
hundred and eighty men, who were shuttled on
the opposite side of tho river.
The horses of these corps being unaccustomed
to the fire of artillery, brake train th© picket
ropes, by which they were tied to the f#:tce, and
stampeded in tue wildest centurion, dashing tn
among tbe hHlf-foruKd infantry aud filling the
streets.
It was sout*’ time before the confusion produced
by both the tiro aud the stampede was ovcicuuae.
Mtauwhtle the enemy upon the opposite aid© oi’
the* river endeavored t * force the passage of the
bridge with one piece of artillery, which he had
held iu reserve; but iu thia movement he was
checked by a bold charge of Capt Richard.-, of
the Bath Cavalry, who wa* stationed oa th© op
posite side of the toad. A running fire then ca
nned, which continued up to the main street of
tho town, the mumy having flualiy succeeded ia
rrosuiug the bridge, and ttiesucocraive dia. barg
i j trout the troop# brought buu to stand every
few rods of his progress.
On reaching the curve of th read leading to
ws ds Beverly, tfie toot troops having been loan
ed by thit respective officers, ib© mum tn,:nge
uteut took place and teimiaatcd in tb© fit.ul Ugh:
ut Stum’s house, a uiiie and a hulf Horn tb© vil
lage. Here the ouerny received a check, gave up
tho chase, aud Col. Forlerfie'd made goau h.s re
treat to the village of Bevtr'y.
The successful termination of the fight, and tbe
warmth of the contest, may be atinouieu o the
wonderful gallantry of th© men, ra> her than to the
superintendence of any goncrul officer, aud tu
rnerouH instances might fie related of tb© most
determined bravery un tho part ot individuals.—
The inojority of our meu showed admire, le
pluck.
Th© U. B. soldiers fired at random, though
armed with Minnie rifles, which account? fbrour
small loss. The enemy wens about 3'oo strong,
though,from the character of the country, they
were unable to bring toe entire body into action.
Through a lady, who ha-since arrived Horn
Beverly, it spp ars they acknowledge to 25 kill
ed, but tbe prtsumpitou is that there weru many
more, to say nothing of sixty ot soveury woun
ded, who were rapidly removed from the field.
Ourowu loss, so far us ascertained, me Mr.
Hanger, of the Augusta Cavalry, who w a killed
near the bridg ; Mr. Martin ot Rockbridge, aud
Mr. Thomas E. 6itc!, of Richmond The latter
individual, when last seen, waa bravely delud
ing himself nar tbo wagon of the Quartermaster,
to whom he was au assistant. The first wound
he received was from a man wbo was mounted,
hat who afterwards met bis deserts ut ihe mouth
of a musket. Hi# lust and mortal wound Mr. S.
received while between bis wagon and the tence,
when he was endeavoring to mount a horse which
was near by. Ho bad been up during tho entire
night, preparing th<*vouchers for the horses
which had beeu pressed into scrv co, nnd were
to bo paid for. These vouchers were upon his
person, and, with bis body, are presumed to have
been tak-n by the urmmy.
Capt- Richards, of the Bath Cavalry, wh o was
reported a* killed, escaped unhurt, aud reached
Boverly with his corps on Monday.
Private L. B. Dangirfield, from lb© Warm
Springs, was uot killed, at repotted. li© receiv
ed a flovo-e eud painful wound ou the lett leg.
Bnch was the stiddentesa cf Uo attack that
fiom# of the men bad not time to dress.
Col. Porteifield is now at Beverly, where, it
is expected, ho can succossjully maintain his
position until reinforced. No doubt is enter
tained that tbo reformation of the absence of
artillery in the command of Porterfield wae
oommuuioatfd to Gen. McClelland at Gralt n,
together with the fact that our forces intended
to move thut night, by resident traitors.
Tbe cheat of Adam*’ Express Company wus
captured by the enemy, but fortunately Quar
termaster Jordan bad taken the precaution to
remove the money it contained, and the funds
are now safe at Boverly.
A number of defective rifle# froui llarperi
Ferry, were no doubt also taken irorn the jail,
but tho number of arms heretofore reported as
raptured in greitly exaggerated,

waa discovered floating from the top of th© flag
