Dear Sir : I duly received, under your cover, two memorials from a portion! of m;y . fellow-citi-zens, for whose intelligence, patriotism and worth I entertain the highest' respect, requesting me, as President of the SUte Conventionale reassemble that body "at an early day i" an4 a few other eminent citizens, by letter orotber wise, expressed a similar desire. ,Tbeir suggestions have. been dnly and maturely Icohaidered, and I have con suited several gentlemen, whose talents, experi ence and pubtic services: entitle their views upon any question connected with bur State policy to ureal weight, and, after a careful and anxious re view of the subject la all its bearings, and avail ing myself of all tie lights accessible .to me, I have been unable td perceive any sufficient cause, iXthvi time existing for calling the Convention together. Respect for the opii ions f my fellow citizens, as well as for the imposing character of tbe solicitations made to me, and just.ee to myself require that I should state some of the leading reasons which have led to this por.cltuion. j The memorialists Tepreseiu bvhUIuSI of the Convention is rendered necessary by "the unfinished and impe!fect condition 'm which the Constitution of thVfetate was Jeft at the late ad journment;" while-others desire one to meet the Jexigencies of the war. The ConventWn, on the 30th of April last and at its fourth session, passed a resolution in these words: '. ' ; ' - "Haired. That this .Convention, do, on Tues day, the 13th of May 1 next, at 2 P: M., adjourn, subject to the call of the President ; and in case of Ms death, inability or resignation -ot Messrs.

As to remoddeling the Constitution, there is reason to believe that all further action to that end was abandoned! by, t,he Convention itself. i- uinnld have adiourned to some named dav as it did on three tormer occasions, and net have left H as a mailer of discretion, with its presiding- officer, or his! alternates, to call H together Or not as they might think) proper. .vVhetber moments were neeueo or uptcerwuijr v THE MiLFTABY- EXEMPTION ACT.

AJ large number of Colonel tFerebe's" Partisan Hangers irom North Carolina, were quickly pos ted in the dense undergrowth on the Bides ofthe river.' No sooner had the gunboats got within range than , the sharpshooters opened on tb'em, quickly clearing the decks.
