A correspondent of the Tra veiter, in writing from Newbenmn N. C., states that information had reached fuere that a call bad been istued at Raleigh, for a State | convention for the purpose of seceding from their allegiance to the Southern Confederacy. The writer says Governor Vance, and nearly every leading man of North Carolina, desire to return to the Unien. He also says an army of 5,000 men uncer Genera! Butler, could march to Raleigh, take possession of the capital, and frer the State from the rule of the traitors in one month’s time. Such an army would re- ceive an enthusiastic welcome there, and all along the lme ot march. So say men who know.

The House resumed the consideration of the first resolution amendatory of the Confiscation act. Mr. Spauiding imdica'ed an amendment which he intends to offer, namely, that no pro- ceeding shall work any forfei:ure of real estate of the offender contrary to the provisions of the Constitution. He expressed his views in favor of the Constitution, and said he had more respect for open and avowed traitors in the field than for their sympathizers. He was for compelling the rebels to submit. If this could not be done he would drive them intoextirpation, if not into extermination. Mr. Stevens denied that the Constitution has the least reference to any of the provisions of the pending resolution. The forfeiture ot estates in fee was purely a proceeding under the laws of war and of nations, over which the Consti- tution bas no control and effect whatever. The property of alien enemies is to be seized and treated as enemies’ property. No further proceedings were had on the first rerolution. The House, at five o’clock, adjourned till Monday. Maryland Legislature. The proceedings of the Legislature on the Conventior bill on Thursday evening and yes- terday were of more than ordinary interest. Thespeech of Senator Arthur John Willis of Caroline—a sketch of which will be found in our columns—we publish rather as a legisla- tive curiosity thau as havingany direct bearing on the bill. He appears to have got through in aspeech of nearly three hours with his entire stock of well intended declamation, but we hope he will not further waste the time of the Senate by repeating it. An amendment offered |. by Mr. Ricaud to the Convention bill, in rela- tion to military interference at the polis, and providing tor a new election in such cases was adopted by ayes 20, nays 1—Mr. Stirling. The Senate adjourned to Monday. In the House of Delegates yesterday, Mr. Jones offered a series of resolutions indorsiag the Administration and renominating President Lincoln tor the Presidency, which were adopt ed, and a disloyal one of Mr. Claude's, de- nouncing the Government, was laid over ander therules. Mr. Murray, of Baltimore, submitted aresolution for the expulsion of any mamber using disloyal language, bat the Speaker de- clared it out of order. The second reading ot the Convention bill of Mr. Stockbridge has pro- sed as far as the third section. The usual number of amendments were offered and expa- tiated upon by those desiring to throw every obetruction in the way of the sneedy nissaze of tbe bill. An amendment to make the Fourth ot July next the day of election was defeated. Mr. Tyson proposed to strike out of the bill the whole of the third section—the oath—3 great bugbear to the 0} he and Speaker Kemp the favor of such action, but the House ad: without coming to a vote.—Baltimore American. pee SE cs eae ARRESTS In St. Magy’s OousTy;: ‘Three persons were ia this vic' the military, on Sunday last.
