cover the rebel operations The railroad from Jackson to Columbus is destroyed vo annual message to the Virginia Legislature was read yesterday It is nine columns long In relation to the division of the State by Congress he says that Western Virginia must necessarily be free territory I cannot suppose that in any treaty of peace that may be agreed upon Virginia will ever recognize a division of her territory or ever consent to a treaty that will strip her of any portion of her domain It Is better that this war should continue for an indefinite period than that Virginia shall be even partial ly dismembered He accuses the North with vandalism without parallel in the history of warfare and reiterates a long list of in dignities outrages and wanton destruction He estimates the balance in the

the evening of the 6th 'J'here is nothing new from Vicksburg as no boats had arrived All kinds of rumors are in circulation and the secessionists appear to be joyful We understand that reports have been receiv ed via Grenada to the effect that 'there had been no fighting since Monday and that the rebel loss at that time was quite small Dispatches have been received in official quar ters that Gen Banks with his fleet and army is ascending the Mississippi and we presume Gen Sherman will wait his co operation before re newing hostilities The Bulletin of the 6th says it was reported at Holly Springs yesterday by a party who said he read it in the Jackson Appeal of Dec 31 that Vicksburg had fallen We give the re port for what it is The Navy Department here has received no later intelligence than that already published The Commercial brought 5000 bales of cot ton and left 1000 on wharf Over 16000 bales were shipped from this port last month According to a notice issued from the Cus tom house at Memphis the only places on the Mississippi River between Cairo and Memphis to which merchandise can go for sale are Col umbus Hickman and New Madrid Permits to other places can only be granted for strictly family supplies Dispatches to th Associated Press Cairo Jan 8 The reason assigned by passengers for 'the non arrivai of steamers from Vicksburg at Memphis is that the rebels have planted bat teries at Cypress Bend and thus prevented in tercourse for the present These can be easily cleaned out by our gunboats when communi cation becomes necessary ROM THE SOUTH Washington Jan 7 The Richmond Enquirer of the 5th says that Governor Letcher has selected from among the prisoners recently sent to Richmond from General command the following gener al officers who will be held in strict solitary confinement as hostages for Colonel Zaroona and others similarly held by the abolition gov ernment Captain Wm Graum Lieutenant Isaac A Wade Captain Thomas Damon Lieut Wilson Damaron John Howe Isaac Gob ble David Annem Samuel Puck and Wm Dills To the Senate and Assembly meet under cirumstances of unusual solemity to legislate for the honor for the in terest and for the protection of ttie people of the State of New York The oath which we have taken to support the constitution of the United States and the constitution of the State of New York and to perform our duties with fidelity has at this lime especial significance It teaches us to look upon each of theeecoostitu tions as equally sacred that each is' to be up held in its respective Jurisdictions At this lime the power of the one is op nly defied by armed rebellion while the other is endangered by the confusion and discord growing out of civil war Tins oath declaration or is not a mere ceremonial it is a part of the tenure of the offices we hold Until we have thus solemnly submitted ourselves to the com mands of tnese instruments giving up our personal views and opinions and pledging ourselves to obey their requirements we arc not permitted to perform one official act To uphold thegeneral government New Yoik has sent since the outbreak of this war two hundred and twenty thousand soldiers into the field To organize this vust army my prede cessor and those acting under Lis direction in his military staff have used unwearied labor and shown high capacity The duties growing out of this service have been greater than those falling upon the officials of other States and in their performance compare favorably with the conduct ot the war on the part of the general government While our soldiers are ptri ing their lives to uphold the constitution and res tore the Union we owe it to them who have shown an endurance and patriotism unsurpass ed in the history of the world that we emulate their devotion in our field ot duty We are to take care when they come back that their home rights are not impaired that they shall not find wnen they return to the duties ot civil life that the securities of their persons the sanctity of their homes or the protection of thtir property have been lost by us while they were battling for their national interest in a distant field of duty I shall deem it my duty to fill all vacancies in official stations in the army by promotion for meritorious services or gallant concuct in the field this is a measure ot ustice as it will give to them the rewards where they have been iair ly earned and will stimulate both officers and menby a laudable ambition to excel in patriotic services in an honorable pursuit Here follows a resume of State affairs which we omit as of no interest to the general reader AAIRS The constitution makes it my duty to com municate to you the condition of the State I cannot do this without speaking of our Union and of the war which afflicts our country and which also affects the extended commerce of New York taxes all its pursuits has taken morehan 200000 men from our workshops and fields and has carried mourning into the homes of our citizens The genius of our government and the Interests of our people demand that the aspects of this war should be discussed with entire freedom Not only is the national life at stake but every personal every family every sacred interest is involved We must grapple with the great questions of the day we must confront the dangers of our position The truths cf our financial and military situation must not be kept back There must be no attempt to put down the full expression of public opinion It must be known and heeded to enable govern ment to manage public affairs with success There is a yearning desire among out people to learn their actual condition They demand free discussion This should be conducted in an earnest thoughtful patriotic spirit The solemnity of the occasion and the sufferings of the war should revive the virtue the intelli gence and the patriotism of the American neo ple The decay of these have brought our ca lamities upon us There are now no causes for discord that have not always existed in our country and which were not lelt by our fatheis in forming the Union They had the greatness the magnanimity and virtue compromise and adjust them The value of the Union they then formed has proved to be greater than they hoped Yet we became iidifferett to it when we were in the full enjejmeut of its blessings We became ignorant ot the charac ter and resources of our own countrymen while we had the benefit of an untrammeled commerce with ail sections of our land It was when the world was astonished with the power and wealth growing out ot our national Union that sectional prejudices aud passions were active in destroying fraternal affections aud generous love ot our country While we boasted most of our intelligence there were those persistently and latorousiy engaged through the press ana in legislative hall in teaching the people of the North and South to undervalue and despise each other Hostile legislation and the division oi our churches impaired religious and social inter course If the North and the South had un derstood the power and purposes of each other our contentions would have been adjusted This misapprehension so bloody and terrible in its effects was systematically and laborious ly inculcatted CAUSES THE WAR Affrighted at the ruin they have wrought the authors of our calamity North and South insist that this war was caused by an unavoidable con test about slavery This has been the subject not the cause ot controversy We are to look for the causes ot this war in a pervading disre gard of the obligations of laws and constitu tions in disrespect for constituted authori ties and above all in the local prejudices which grown up in two portions ot the Atlantic States the two extremes of our coun try whose remote positions have made them lees well informed and whose inte rests have made them less considerate with regard to the condition and character of our whole people than those living in the great central and western sections of our Union There is no honest statement of our difficulties which does not teach that our peo ple must reform themselves as well as the con duct of the government and the policy of our rulers There is not a calamity we are suffering which was not clearly foretold by our fathers as the result of the passions and local preju dices which have grown up during the past fif teen years It is not too late to save our country if we will enter upon the sacred duty in the right spirit and in the right way When we do so the effect will be seen and felt throughout our land and by the civilized world We shall then strengthen our government we shall weaken the rebellion we shall unite our people and the world will recognize our capaciiy for slf govemment when we show that we are capabld of self reform RESPECT OR LAWS AND RULERS In the first place we must emulate the con duct of our fathers and show obedience to con stituted authorities and respect for legal and constitutional obligations The very idea of the power and the right of the people to estab lish government presupposes the duty of every individual to obey the established government Yet a spirit of disobedience has sapped the foundations of municipal State and national authority in every part of our land It is not only the nnderlajing and pervading cause of the war it is also the immediate occasion of pur calamities When the leaders of the insurrection at the extreme South bay that free and slave States cannot exist together in the Union and when this is echoed from the extreme North by the enemies of our constitution both parties sim ply say they cannot because they will Dot res pect the laws and tne constitution This spirit of disloyalty must be put down It is incon sistent with all social order and social security with safety of persons and property In order to uphold our government it is also necessary that we should show respect to the authority of our rulers While acting within the limits of their jurisdictions and represent ing the interest the honor and the dignity of our people they are entitled to deference Where it is their right to decide upon measmes and policy it is our duty to obey and to give a ready BUDDort to ir dfWHgiAna virtual maxim of liberty Without this loyalty no government can conduct public affairs with success no people canbe safe in the enjoyment ot their rights This duty is peculiarly strong under our system which jrives the people the right at their elections to sit In judgment upon their rulers to commend or condemn them to keep them in or expel them from offi cial stations This war should have been averted but when its floodgates were opened the adiniui stration could not grasp its dimensions nor control its sweep The government was borne along by the current and struggled as it best could with the resistless tide ew' seemed able to comprehend its military or financial problems Hence we are not to sit in harsh judgment upon errors in conduct or plicy Bat while we concede all these excuses for mistakes we are not to adopt errors nor sanc lolAtions of principle The same causes which extenuate their faults in judgment must make us more vigilant to guard their influences Unusual dangers demand unusual vigilance ECONOMY AND INTEGRITY Economy and integrity in the administration of affairs are essential at all

already distracted and dissatisfied pub lic mind of the North may inspire Lincoln with sentiments of caution and cause him to with hold his programme for servile war His peo ple will not stand what they have stood His soldiers wearied and disgusted with the war will net consent to go out with halters on their necks It Lincoln were a wise man there con siderations would control his counsels But it is the characteristic of weakness to be most savage in utterance when least capable cf execution We may therefore most reasona bly expect of him to continue the ebullitions ot his madness and folly though we need not fear him and do not believe that he will be able to carry his people with him la any vigorous attempt to give the war the mutually sangui nary character which his plans involve We may have and probably will have a continua tion of those tricks which man iioor man dressed in a little brief authority ike a'mad ape cuts before high for Lincoln is of that class of men But we shall be disappointed if our own attitude as taken in President proclamation does not have the practical effect of immediately reforming and humanizing the war My poverty and not my will consents will be

motion of Mr Saulsbury the bill for the discharge of State prisoners was taken up He proceeded to address the Seuite at length He declared that partisan revengehad governed the actions of this administration and the infamy of its acts would drag it with disgrace down to future generations The cause of this war was the assertion of the right to abolish slavery and the evidence of such a purpose The Pres ident bad treated the subject with jocular and criminal indifference and when he came dis guised to the capital he whispered no word of hope to the men struggling to make some peaceable arrangement and alter be was in augurated he proceeded to place his friends in office and manifested no further care about the country except to endeavor to force the rebels to strike the first blow War exists not by act of Congress but by the acts of Beauregard and Lincoln He claimed that the power to suspend the writ of habeas corpses was vested alone in Congress and yet the
