Mr. JOHNSON, of Missouri:--I represent a youthful State. She is not the daughter of any particular State or section, but of the Union. We Missourians love the Union, but we have fully arrived at the conclusion that the time has come when something must be done to prevent our entire separation. We have hitherto remained silent. We came here to preserve the Union. Not that we love the Union less, but we love our rights more. We love our rights more than the Union, our property, or our lives. We desire to come to a speedy adjustment. Ten days of Congress only remain. It will be difficult even to introduce our propositions, still more to get them considered. I sustain the motion of the gentleman from Kentucky; and Missouri will vote for it. Mr. WICKLIFFE:--I will make the proposition as acceptable as possible. I will insert one o'clock instead of ten. Exclamations were heard from several members of, "Let us agree," and the question being taken on the first resolution as amended, it was adopted. Mr. BACKUS:--I move to insert in the second resolution, ten minutes instead of five, wherever the word occurs. That time is none too long to state the purpose of an amendment properly. Mr. NOYES:--Is this resolution designed to exclude all discussion upon an amendment, except by the member moving it and the committee? Mr. WICKLIFFE:--No! Such is not the intention. Any one can speak five minutes. I rely on our sense of propriety not to abuse this construction of the resolution. The amendment of Mr. BACKUS was decided in the negative by a vote _viva voce_. The resolution was then adopted, together with the resolution relating to motions to strike out and insert. Mr. BROWNE:--I move that when the Convention adjourn, it adjourn to meet at half-past seven o'clock this evening. Mr. CHASE:--I hope the Conference will not hold night sessions. Our day sessions are protracted and very laborious. I agree with Commodore STOCKTON, that night sessions are dangerous. Mr. MOREHEAD, of Kentucky:--I do not agree with Mr. CHASE. I have particularly observed the demeanor of all the gentlemen in the Conference, and know that they are as well fitted for business at five o'clock in the afternoon as at ten o'clock in the morning. A vote by the States was called for, which resulted as follows: AYES:--Delaware, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, and Virginia--13. NOES:--Connecticut, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Ohio, and Vermont--7. Mr. WILMOT:--In pursuance of the instructions of the Legislature of Pennsylvania, I offer the following. I wish to have it laid on the table, and printed, that I may move it as an amendment to the committee's report at the proper time. The motion of Mr. WILMOT was agreed to, and the amendment is as follows:
