THE VIRGINIA STATE CONVENTIO’ Traaxdun, Va., Feb, 16, 1801. ‘The Virginia State Convention reassembled to-day. Mr. Mas introduced resolutions declaring that Virginia & devoted in her attachment to the Union, and will make mpy racrifice consistent with her honor to restore and saaintain it; but ehe protests against coercion, aud is @otermined not to submit to any administration or government in which her rights are assailed or not fully protected, and that if the Union cannot be restored on terms hororable to all its componeat parts, then it shall be dived. Mr. Monroy introduced resolutions declaring that Vir- winia wil) not submit to the coercion of the seceded States aa any pretext whatever; protesting against the we the army and wavy to cocres any State wow in or out of the Union; desiring to restore the fede- and preserve it upon terme of safety and honor te members, but declaring that if tho efforts bei made to do so shall prove unavailing, then that Virginia will hesitate, but unite with her sister Southern Prater. Mr, Canciste introduced regolations declaring that since the decision of the United States Supremo Court in the ease of Chisholm against the State of Georgia, and the adoption of the eleventh amendment to the constitution, we are at a loss to understand how the impression that the federal government porsesses power to coerce a State eould Baye obtained credence. Mr. Lrace introduced resolutions declaring that if the federal government shall undertake forcibly to retake the Serts in the seceding States, Virginia will regard it as an ‘mvasion of the rights of the Southern Stateg; and that @ the government undertake to collect dutie® in the se- goded States, Virginia will regard such acts as coercion, nd is hereby pledged to resistance with al! the meaus in ‘her power. Mr fRicuANps introduced resolutions declaring that the compact between the States has been repeatedly violated and repudiated by theNorth and, therefore, that it is not Diwding on the other parties thereto; that the peaceable withdrawal of the Southern States is justiflable; that wo e coercion of such States; that it isthe duty of at once to conceds euch guarantoes as will pre- vent a recurrence of our Wronge, and secure our equal yights; that a failure to do this will be an evidence of in @ifference or hostility, alike fatal to our peace and pros- yerity; that in view of these truths we demand speedy security for our rights; that in defanit of which we will dissolve our connection with those who firet wantonly wrong we and then obstinately persevere in the injury, and that Virginia be forthwith put in 2 condition of benee. Mr. Frocnnoy introduced resolutions declaring that while Virginia baea high appreciation of the blessings ‘tended to be secured by the constitution and te Union, and will do much and forbear much to perpetuate them, she still feele bound © declare that identity of interests would demand and receive the interposition ef all her military etrength to resist any attempt to coerce the Southera Saatew: that Virg’ hopes and believes that by prudent weagsures of conciliation on the part of the government, wud A just appreciation of our present difficulties, some measures of comprom'se may be adopted which will re- store peace, friendship and union to every eection. ‘All of the resolutions were referred to the Committee wm Feseral Relations. There wae cons menttere: Governor Wisr reiterated his policy of dghting in the Union, and counselled speedy retion. Mr, Moonn, of Rock Ridge, opposed haste, He would mot be driven by the North or dragged by tho cotton Seater, who acted without consulting Virginia. He was ‘@pposed to coercion, but if the seceded States chose to wesay!t the forte let them take the consequences, Mr Comuste contended that the government had never re »pted the coercion of the South, aud that whep % was done the people would resiat.

Van Buren Wilooxson, tho Assistant United States Attorney, in opposition, Judge Smalley stated that upon the trial of the case against Hires the Court thought the evidence insufficient to support a verdict for cither murder or manslaughter, though the jury thought differently, and convicted the prisoner of the minor offence; and upon the trial of the prisoper Lane the same witnesses were examined and reiied upon by the govern- mont aé in the Hiroe case, to wit:—the steward, a white man, and one of the foremast hands, a colored man—and after hearing the crose-cxamination of those w.inesees in the Lano case, and the testimony for the defeno»—wi)' ch was more full and fe than in the Hires cate—the Court became satisfied that the evidence for the proascn- tion was #o much khaken as not to entitle It to be reli uy to justify @ conviction for any offence, but doubted whether the Court had xoy power to order a nolle prosequi EGROES ON without the of the rict Attorney.

The volume now before us was propared—we gather from the introduction—not simply as a biographical record of the Principal Tia’ion painters and a chronological account of in and progress of the several schools of painting but with the higher alm of ing opon the public portance in national ci thetic studies and taste, and of amalyzing thos el ples which underlie a) art, aod make asity of civilization.

And the result isa volume which forms an epoch in our art literature, beautiful im its exterior in every respect, and full of that sort of informatica which all who love art desire to acquire, and which could other- ‘wise bo obtained only by 2 resides and reference to many costly and rare works ix y languages. Indeed, we believe that even ebroad there exists uo Work ou Itallan painting of a more compraber- sive and exhaustive character, embodying the reauite of the most recent researches of the best Ruropean critics, veri‘ied by tho personal studies wm Italy of Mr. Jarves himself. ‘This book especially commends itself to Americans be- canse of its democratic carnestness of tone, It estad- shes the fact, so itttle known and understood, that the beet art of Europe sprang from and was sustained by the people, as democratic communities, or with republicad tendencies and forma of government. Tx the preface Mr. Jarves observee'—The nobility and beanty of that art which is herelxz delineated were the fruits of the demo. cratic en i tto thove which we owe to ourown blood, and which are preparing our country for an equally glorious career in art; while Italy iteelf, as a united whole, i@ uprising to a new birth, to keep us company {n the drama of progress, Whatever, therefore, cach American or Italian can ond to do to hasten the national advance in art, science or re- Kgion, ba should do it with his whole soul, on is divided into three parte, diseusa'ng vent of civilization, and the means 0 ment. artists that read like the pages in Europe apd America ; the rules of cr! taste, and a particular inquiry into the acthemti works of art, with much interesting and amuaing expe- rience of the author himself in the formation of hie own collection, Each of these topice is a distinct treatice, baving a bearing upon or more properly preparing the way for the main topic, which begins with the “ Pycbo- logical Origin of Art,” tracing its progrees through the different forme of Paganism into Christian: the different ideas and character of each, and the causes of the tinal triumph of Christian art.

The English press has done such ample justice to the merita of this work that ithas left the America” re- viewer but litte to exercise his analytical powers upon. it is seldom that an American author receives from foreign critics @ tribute 80 unanimous to his ability, im- partiality and breadth of views, Although the period covered by Dr. Motley’s labors is but a Instrum, it forms one of the most important epochs in history, inasmuch as ut lays bare the hidden springs and workings of the league Sgainst human liberty entered into by Spain and Rome, and ‘ta defeat by the united action of England and Hol- land. In the compilation of the splendid and tnminous narrative, which, it is admitted on all hands, he has made of these events, Dr, Motley has exhausted every sourceof information accessible to the historian, The State are: © of London, Paris, Brussels and the Hague have all been ransacked to render his task as complete as it was poss ble to make it. (me of the most attractive fea- tures of the volume is the force and breadth with which the historical portraits are painted. Take, for in- st this sketch of Alexander Farnese, Prince of Par ma:— Alexander was never more truly heroic than in this position of vast entanglement. Uutirimg, uncomplaining, thoughtful of others, prodigal of himself, generous, mo- dest, brave; with go much intellect, and go much devo- tion to what he considered his duty, he deserved to be a petriot and a champion of the right, rather than an in- stroment of despoulsm. And thus he paused for @ mo- ment—with much work already accomplished, but his hardest lite-task before him; still in the nuon of manhood, ane martial igure, standing, spear in baad, fallin the sunlight, though all ‘the scene around him was wrapped in glom—a noble, commanding shape, entitied to the admiration Which the energetic displuy of great powers, however ungcrapulous, must always command. A dark, meridional physiognomy ; @ quick, alert, imposing head, jot black, cwse clipped hair; a bold eagle's face, with ‘al, Uright, restivss eyes 4 man rarcly reyosing, always pay Fo er alarmed; living in the saddle, with barness on his back—such was the Prince of Parma; matured and mellowed, but atl unharmed by time. ‘We regret that we are unable to devote more space to extracts from this xemarkable work, The moderate price of the American edition will, however, place it within the reach of the majority of our readers, Reyron’s AngrperMest or THe Depares or Con- aress, Vols.
