WntRBAS, It i9 obvious that in the struggle between the speculators on the one part to gratify their avarice, even to jeopardising the safety of our country, and the Government on the other, to protect that country, it becomes important to strengthen the arm of the Government by the action both of the Legislatures and the people therefore, be it Rtsolved, That tlu- several States of this Confederacy be requested to pass such laws and take such measures as will mwt effectually sause the rri-Pn tixed by the Commissioners ot appraisement in their States, to be observed bv rpII fri anil riiirrhanro Ana Convention is of opinion that the most effective mods of doing this would be for the Legislature to impose a tax on articles sold over the schedule price for the same equal to the amount of the difference between the schedule price and that at which the article is sold.

Rttolvrd, That the Commissioners of the several States be requested to have these Resolutions laid before their respective State Legislatures. The Preamble and Resolutions were unanimously adopted. The Convention adjourned aitrrahan monious session of three days, and we trust that its deliberations may result in much good to tho country. Impressment is a thing to which we must submit, in timo of war, but it is, the duty of those having; tho management of affairs to make it fall as lightly and equally as possible. Incidents at Chickamavoa.

As our army pursued tho enemy into Chattanooga, the answers of some old women to ques-tiono as to tho passing of Yankee fugitives wero very amusing. I givo some colloquies Confed "Madam, have any Yankees passed up this road Old Woman. "La havo they! First, the Yankees thoy camo along, and poor fellows! they locked so tired, and they was nearly scared to death. They looked so pale. Then Mr.

Bv ''crolur-men," the old woman meant our cavalry, thus designating them, be. cause they ride horses, or "cretures." as tbe I old women call tbem. With another old woman tho following i colloquy was had i Confed.

Sometimes however these "great questions," when thoy reach their culminating point and ox-plode, scatter their fragments far and wide, and as ft proof that they, at least wore not tncro hobbies, produce it may be, a Revo-lotion, which "never rolls backward." Thus we find in the history of the great Republic of tho United that this ceaseless agitation of political questions never growing weary ovon for a moment, but gaining energy from overy circum.

stance, and overcoming overy impediment has not been barren of results. True, be. fore the harvest was guthorod, many different seeds were sown, and when one theory exploded a now ono was instantaneously tried, and many old political warriors were rtupcrceded, until finally thoso were found who wero able to form a moro prodigous campaign, and lead on to tho great revolution which has divided tho old Govornment and inaugurated with fire and blood new and we hopo eventually to be a sounder system for the bonorit of tho people. But now, since our political warriors have been so unsuccessful, it would not bo un reasonable in us to expect silence of them and willingness on their part ta stand off and look on whilo tho new order of things is being put under way, whilo the now war riors that havo sprung into being fight out tho battles and establish for themselves a name and placo in history, in other words, sinco the great question of Siato Rights has proven itself no humbug, but a bona jide doctrino, and capable of producing a war bctwocn tho North and South in which tho most, innocent portion of the latter section havo to do the lighting, tho poli. ticians, wo think should enjoy ihe season as a holiday and wait until this war is brought to a closo, beforo they resume their labors, and produce another war which might in all possibility bo much worse for us in the inlluenco it would exert upou tho termination of oilr struggle.

For our owu part wo bavo thought wo could discern sumo signs of such a desirable state of things iu looking over tho country for in Virginia at tho late election for Governor in that State, though two prominent candidates wero before tho people they differed in opinion on no important political question, and each one was consid. ered a warm supporter of tho Confederat Government, while the newspapers seemed to be silent in advocating tho claim of cither aspirant. Farther South the olec tions seem to have been conducted in the same quiet manner, anloss we may except tho rccout Congressional elections in our own State, where, in some districts wo think there has been, for the times, rather an undue number of candidate, and with somo of these a display of chicanery and demagogism altogether too strong to au gur well lor their character as honest poli-ticians or even their protestations of good will for the poople. This display, howev-er has been far irom genoral, and the Confederacy need entertain no fears from any developments that have taken place at theso elections. Wo think that all will I work out right yet, and our causo will on prospering, supported to tho bitter end by a patriotic and united people.

In Northern Virginia, Mead has already signalized bis advance with wonderful energy, and has inflicted a terrible blow upon the army of General Lee.

In Western Virginia the disaster to Gen. Echols' command shows the enemy active, bold and enterprising. The Confederate Genoral, defeated, is retiring, says the Lynchburg Republican, on Salem, and apprehensions are entertained for the safety of the railroad, ln North Carolina the enemy have landed "in large force" at AVioton and are threatening the Southern line of railroad at Weldon oe some other point. On tke Peninsula the enemy have been reportod as landing in large numbers NeportNews. Thus all around Richmond therenemy are threatening active operations -before the winter has blockaded the roads.

Meado has returned from his late retreat bv no means cowed or evincing any unwil lineness to meet Gen. Leo indeed, his ac- .9 i I i. tivity aud wnon comparcu wuu the negligence ot somebody in tho army of Northern Virginia, shors in striking contrast. He has captured ttf'O bngadoi and is reported as still advancing. Gen.

Lee's army has been said to be ready and willing to trust the fortunes of battle, aud we hope it may promptly and effectually punish the boldness which has saized and carried off two of its brigades. Whether Ge2- Lee intends giving battle in the forks of the Rappahannock or falling back to the old line on tho Rapidan, we have no means of knowing; but should not be surprised or disappointed if he declines battlo North of the Rapidan and retires to the position from which his late advance was made. We should not bo surprised if Meade, satisfied with the captor of tho two brig-ages did not hesitate to risk hislaurols in a general engagement; but ministering to Yankeo vanity, parade his prisoners through Washington and other cities, and quietly settle down at the fint good place for winter quarters. The Yankee press and people rejoice over the material evidence of success, such prisoners; take delight in parading them through cities; count, and re-count them as a miser his hoards, aud satisfy themselves that tho ie-bellion is dying out. Meade understands tho vanity of his maters, and may satisfy their clamor.s by a congratulatory order and the parado of his captives through the cities of the United States.

Having made such important capturos, hp will doubtless report Lee as flying to Richmond and himself swiftly pursuing. Tho Yankees, too mu'en delightod with tho prowess of their invint army of Che Potomac to inquire into the Sjced of the pursuit, will sattlo down to lho b'incss ot their next while Meao will go into winter q.iartora in Fauquier or Culpeper, and await the spring lor the capture of Gen. Lee. But will Meade bo permitted to settle down into wiuter quarters without a fight, afur this hold and daring insult to tho Army of Northern Virginia It is Ge.W Loo to decide whether pruaenco will best bw served by wiping out the insult in a general engagement, or awaiting the spricg for its punishuient. Whatever Gen-.

Lee may determine upon will be readily accepted as right and pnpcr; but if the wishes of tho peoplo could inflaenco him, they would like to soc the punishment fall swift and heavy upon tho army of Gen. Meade. As to Gen Echols, there has been so little received, and that so indefinite, that wo cannot inform our readers as to tho posh tiou of military affairs in that part of Virginia. From Weldon, no information of the enemy's movements have been received. Tho only intelligence from Northern Yin ginia, on yestordaj', was to tho effect that fighting was going op, but to what extent is nat reported.

Enquirert 0th. Few or no additional particulars have been received from the fight on tho Rappahannock Saturday. AH that wo havo been able to ascertain is mainly corroborative of the statement in our last issue. The fight is represented to have boon of a most desperate character, and our men did most tearful execution among tho Yankees. As wo expected, tho last reports modify, to some extent the extent of our loss, and make it considerably less serious than at Ihst reported.

A report prevailed yesterday that a fen-orai engagement had commenced within the last tweatyifour hours, and the depart' ure of tho Richmond Ambulance Committee for the scene ot action yesterday after noon seemed to give a semblance of truth to the rutnr. Arrivals from the army last night, however, did not confirm the rumcr. Nothin" ha yet been received at the War Department of an official character in relation to tho fight Saturday, or to confirm the reported battle yesterday. About ono hundred and twenty or twen ty. five wounded arrived yesterday.
