it has become apparent that the national difficulties can only be resolved by force, the
adequate force shall not be wanting.—
Whether Congress, at its extra session in
July, will sanction this movement of the Ex6cutive, will materially depend on the State
Of affairs which Will then exist.
Anh overwhelming majority of the next
‘Congress will be frofa the free States, and,
‘doubtlessly, will reflect the military enthusi‘asm now #0 rife in those states. It is diffionlt to predict what slave states will be represented in the extra session. Although the
‘Virginia Convention voted that state out of
the Union, by the enactment of an ordinance
of secession, yet, it is among the probabilities
_ that'that ordinance will not be sanctioned, at
the ballot*box, by the people of Virginia.
However, let the people decide the question
of secession as they may, the Convention
took especial care to prevent the election of
members of Congress, by. directly and expressly prohibiting it. North Carolina and
Arkansas will not, it is probable, be represented at Washington in July; Kentucky,
"Tennessee and Missouri may be, though it is
doubtful. The enly slave states, eertam to
‘be represented, are Delaware and Maryland.
“Under this view ot the coming extra seasion,
there is every. reason to expect that the war
_ policy of the President will be amply saactioned and sustained by the Congress of July,
With the very large and imposing military
force, now at Washington, there 1s but little
‘Wikeliheod that any demonstration will be
made against that city by any force from the

@f April, pronounved Washington safe from

have been made to the ratikg:. 0§ «ttm defendors ; and, as the Maryland“ législatire has
pened that State to the fiee passage of
northern troops to the Federal Capital, an
immenee and irresistable army must soon be.
“Wnot already, concentrated at that important point. Whether the Federal Govern‘ment will avail itself of the vast power, now
‘#t its command, to institute offensive operafons on.the soil of Virginia, is a something
which wemust leave to future advices by the
pony for solution.
It is, however, probable that Harper's Fersy and the goverumen possessions at Norfolk
willbe recaptured. Gov. Letcher's determiuation notte permit southern troops to
Miraverse Virginia in. the direction of Wash‘iogton, may be regarded, by ‘the Federal
Government, as having been arrived at too
