At tae hoav earned one o'clock the tw honsa wero asierabled ! joint convention in the hall of the Hocst, wnich waa filled to overflowing by the addition of a Urge oonocurje of Udies and citiaens. The Presideat wis warmlv sreated bv the auaience wnen Be emerta h hall, And eloqaently w?i- t . . . - . . . . nu to AiaDanra, in wnoae fair canitol be erst asmmed the cares and responsibilities of hla ealted position, by the speaker of tb Home, when ht promptly responded in an adiress occupying an hour and ten minv.es in its deliv ery, ana eucitec from those assembled rreqaent outbursts of approval. We teeret the absence of a comtetent roDorter on this occaslca, as the remarks ware of a character that would have made it profitable to have r-iad them before the whole oountry.

After a few prelimioarv remarks, the President alluded to the fact that almoal ia the very apt he then stood, be had acsomed the cares of the position he held. This s'ep. he averred, was made agaiust hia o wn wkht. He tben felt that his w.ilitary teacbicg and ezpeneoe bad perhaps better flvted bim for th leld, and tbat, recofcniau g his services 10 oa aae tne couatry inner straggle, wbich he foresaw culd be a long and bitter one. that posl-ion was preferred Bis political life. 100. had been one of anUgo nisms, necesiarily no from the earnestmss of bis tamper ament. wbich led him to persistently adhere to idea fnce dett-rmioed to be right and nroner : cons aaentlv he doubt e i hi ability to lose aight of past dldereces, aad do jus- wuo 10 i i wno wee mvoiTsa m the strugeie tor th mde penderce cf their native land. But former p litical adv tr aarics as well &a frieads, chose to diarepatd his earnest aod candid importuaities ; thpy called him to tbe work, arid its peitorma&ce was Hodertaaen. Taat any favoritism t ad been shown, or r Janice dune, to any one, ihrongh theim pnise of the heart, was solemnly dioavowed. Errors of judgment might have been made, but such were allotted to bumauity, withoat subjecttag it to be accused of cimi nuiity. inference was made to the present atatui of tbe Con fedetucy, aa cum pared with tbat exiaicg when it was formed, paiticulariy witb repaid tb our ability to CuDtioue a war. ihen we bad no armies trained as cow t tbe da ties of tbe soldier. Tru, wben it became apparent a bk.cdy strmrgle was, through the madness and foil of those trom whom we only deBired a peaceful separation, inevitable, our people did not lag. Ou tbe cout ary the government was overwhelmed with applications from or gauizatioiiB to enter the service, from one end of the land 10 tho other ; but, ucionuuaiely wo were without an ade qaate tupply ot aims. Tueee bad to be supplied, and i was olI, accoaipiisbed after surmuntiag the grfaest ob stacles. We were deficient in ammunition, and without eitber tbe material from which it cou d be manaactnred. i t the fecili'.ies to make it. steadi y, however, tbe eflorta of tbe gov rnmect had been dirrcted to romedy every disa bility. Tha government had no money, aod no credit, and therefore had to rely upon the r sources of it own pect .e prii cipal y. Notwitbstandiog all tbi, to da it coulJ be truly asserted tbat we weiw in better condition to buccestfully combat our tots than at the inception of the war, ve t ad a credit that ved to auswer oar home iu-lercoan-e, where cur wauts ere tupi'ed; we had ammo uition beyoiid tbe poini ity of a tuture scarcity, and we have arw.u to serv&al! who wt re capable of bearing them, and might be cal.ed upon to d j bo.

Alluding to the military situation, the President sr d there ws no cause for despondency.

The gallant army ot Uood waa not only iu position to dauk Alabama lor her safety, bat alse, ir supported as It could and hhould be, to operate with success ia riddlag the Em pire btate of her invaders. The idea of reconstruction was not entertained by the government, and if, said tne President, theia ia & siagle in dividual within the boundaries of the Confederacy who da! entertain it, the least harsh thing that cou d be said of h-m is tbat he is on the wrong aide of tho dividing line. Peace was desired by all, prayed for by ail ; was prayed for by the m tbers ot the Hnd ia their closets, and by the soldi. 8 in tbe field ; but hither 1.0 all attempts to inaugurate peace bad tailed. And now, Mr. Lincoln only cfiared us peace upon terms of tbe mobt abject submission.

From Ihe accents of that v ice. my friend, I see that yon have come into this oouctry from oie tht has itslf lost is liberty, and you may we.l exolairai thiee cheers fnr the Confederacy upon whose success now alone depends the exis-once of cofcBtiiutionul liberty in'the world. We are fiohting for that principle, upon us dependi its last hope. The Yat.kees in endeavariog to coerce the States have lost that heirloom of their fathers, and the men of the South along must fmstafn it. Cms is not a revolution. W were a free and indepen dent people in States tbat had th right to mtke a better Government when they saw fit. They sought to infrmge opoa the rights e bad and we only instituted a new gov ernment on the basis of those rgbv. We are net engaged ia a Qiixoic fight for the rights of mm; onr struggle is for lohgrited rights and who weuid eurender thena ? Letrverv paper guaraoty possible be given and who would submi ? Prom the grave of many. a fallen hero the blood of the s'am would cry out against och a peae with the murderers. The women of tbe land driven from their homes, tbe chil dren lacsing food ; old age hobbling from the Bcenes cf ire yomh ; the fugitives, lorced to giv way to the Yankee op pressor and iiow hiding In your railroads, all proclaim a sa of blood that freemen cannot hfford to bridge. Ther ia bot one thing to which we can accede separate State lr dependence. Some there are who speak of reconstruc tion witn blsevery maintained, but ar hereany who wonld thus mesBnre rights by proper' v J God forbid. Would you see tbat boy with a peach blocm on his cheek grow up a serf never to tread the path of honour nnless he l'gbt the torch at the funeral pyre of his country ? Wou'd 'n see the fair dangbtera of tbe land given over to the Diutality of the Yaakees ? If any imagine this would not be so. let him look to tip declarations of Mr. Lirco'.n, the terms he offers ; let him read the declarations ot ha Northern press ; let him rots the tone of the Northern people, and ne will see there is nothing left for ua bet separate independence. Who now looks for intervention ? Who does not know that cur friends abroad depend noon our strength at borne? Tha v'r'e balance is in our favor with v'cto'y, and tarn against us witn defeat, and that when our victory is un questioned, we wyi be recognized, and not till then. We must do our duty, and tbt dnty '"s tbis : Every man able to b ar arms must go to the front, and all others must devote themselves to tbe caass at borne. There must be no pleadiro; for exemution. We are flxhting for existence and bf fjg'itlng aione can iodependenci be gained. Georgia is now invaded. She is calling for succor, and he who trom Alabama, from Mississippi, from South Carolina, r'isbes to her aid strikes wben he strikes for her a blow fr his own home and family. Our Confederate States must lean one upon the other for mutual eupport. We are as the poet has said : 11 Distinct es tho billows, yet one as the se." One part must rush to the support of the other. We must beat Sherman, we must march into TeLnPssee there we will draw from 20,000 to 30 00 to our s'ar dard. and bo strengthened, we must push the enemy back to the banks of the Ohio and thus give the peace party of ths North an accretion no puny editorial can give. Words will not now avail. Yon must cor suit jonr heatta. perform more than the law can exact. yKld as mtch i frpenvn can give, and all will be well. Wi'h peac" ar.d freedom a plorioua career opens for these Confederate I Mates. Relieved from class legislation, free from Ux- indirect it is true, but imposed by your rulers for twenty I ears past no longer snbiect to Northern speculators. grinders of tbe face of the poor, and denier of the rights of men, you will stand Iorwrd m the brightest ot futures. On each of the former occasions wben 1 was m this state cf Georgia on my wav to the urmy, tbat army was on the soil of o her Statea, and t ia ony at this viit tbat this i tbe battle fi Id.

' The eppcial correspondent of the "limes," writing from WilmiDgtoD, North Caroline, undu- date of June 6th, on the subject of tbe blockade, says : I cannot leave the subject of tbe blockade without pointicg tbe moral which is beiDg taught by it, and wbich it is inconceivable why England does not taae more pains to understand. There is no nation upon earth which has a tenth of tbe interest which England has in closely observing tbe working of the only block ade, on a large and i.nptriel scale, which has beeu es tablished since tbe introduction of Bteam nagation. jt can Bcatc.'iy be pretended tbat inlormation in re gard to the system of showing lights to guide in coming vetstfs, oncrning tbe infinite in tricacies of detail which experience has taught the olockade-ruoLers of Wilmington, Mobile, &c , con cerning vise moat favorable conditions of sea, sky, and tide tor running out or coming iD, ca be obuineo otherwise than upuu Southern soil. Yet it ia not otemed by tbe British Admiralty to be a matter of importance tbat tbey should ue represented at Wil mington and elsewhere by one ot our most accomplish ed naval 'fliers. It is humiliating to be told, os I nave been eg-iin and again, that no euch emissary wfil oe sent witoout the consent of Mr. Adams, and that this consent he will never gve. Bat great as it is, the concu.rer-C of opinion among Englishmen in America upon the importance of this subject, there is but too much reason to fear that this blockade will be unheeded, and its lessons learned by competent English officials It is idle for me to poin" out tbat not only is there ; opportunity for a naval officer to gain invaluable I information, but tbat, in ppite of tbe answer given j three months ago by Lord da Gray to the effect tbat it was not important to send military cfiktia to the South by reason of the inferiority of its resources, it is tne opinion of every English officer who baa been to the Southern States that there is infinitely more to be learnt here during a month tuan iu the North daring a year. It iB, I think, piet y well admitted by this time that, as regards construc- loc of guns or the architecture of iron clad monitors, Englaod has nothing to leatn from the North. But, in every other department of tbe vast science of war, there is mote to be gained as regards the present struggle by btadylr it from a Southern than from a Northern point of view. As an instance, it may be asked wheth er there is upon thia continent anything to be compar ed in interest with au inside view of Charleston and Fort Sumter. It i8 the opinion of experienced judges tbat the earthworka around Richmond are the most for midable that modern experience has known. Tee co vet system of defensive works around Mobile is describ ed to me upon excellent testimony as tbe rnott instruc tive of stuuies for a military engineer. I know not wheth er there be truth in the assertion, which has greeted me here, tbat two French officers of ability are momen tarily expected in the South, but it has alwayt: appeared to me incomprehensible tbat the French Emperor should have shown an. apathy about this war wbicn, mistakea as I bold it to be in England's case, admits, so far ub England is concerned, ot easy and piausiole explana tion. " As an illustration of the fallacy and certaiaty with which the blockade is now defi .d, I will mention in con clusion a few facts. Between tbe 1st 01 May and the 1st ot June no less than twenty-four vess.is made the port of Wilmington safely, without disaa er be'alling a single vessel. oo wouatr mat pnes upon puca ui urov.;rn ment goods are stored here, awaiting, when there ia ls s 'rain upon tbe rauroaaa, transportation 10 x.icnmma and Atlanta. I am informed by the Government agent here that, in his whole experiecce, le he a nev.T lost a single outward-bound letter. A gentleman at Bermuda, tbe agent of an eminent English firm, told me tbat during two years he bad seat an average of three mails per mouto from Bermuda and Nassau into Seces bia, and that ia the whole tima only two mails had been lost." SIEGB OF CHAULESTON. FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY-FODBTH DAY. Another flag of truce communication for the special exchange ol prisoners and delivery of stores, & i, took place in the harbor oa Monday. Shortly after eight o'clock, about one hundred and ten boxes, barrels and packages of stores for the Ootfederate prisoners on Morris' Island were put on board the flig of truce steamer Celt, Captain McNulty, which, with Captain P. C. Warwick, cf Generai Junes' Staff, and a num ber of army and n avy officers, members of the press, and citizins, proceeded down the barber, and anchored about two miles outside cf Fort Sumter. The Yankee river steamer Concaicaa Boon after ap peared, and an effort was made to lash both steamers together. Owing to tbe heavy swell the effort failed and the steamers cast tff from each other, connection being kept up by a cable. The commutation was then made in small boats, Captain Warwick, with Lieutenant Hincks, from Headquarters, and Colonel J. Welsman Brown, going aboard the Canonicas, where they were met by Col. S.

Just ai the -Celt passed Fort Sumter the enemy re operjtU fire on tbe fort, and in about half an hour after she reached the wharf opened on the city.
