South Carolina is i'll motion to effect "Southcrn
Convention" The following brief account of the
Meeting in Sumter District, extract from the
Charleston Gazette. This measure, We have
before remarked, proceeds from the Union party,
as opposed to the measures recommended by the
Notification party, and is most incon;incntly rdi-
culed by the latter. Conventions may or may not
be praiscworthy, precisely they may dc designed
to exercise legitimate influence by concerted act
ion of the friends of the Union, who really think
themselves oppressed, the means of cxcitinv
the factous opposition scnseless clamor of dcma
gogues, who care not straw for the country
provided they advance themselves. A priori, we
should say that Southern Convention at this time
would be productive any thing but good; and the
violence exhibited by many of the partizan news.
papers, would confirm this opinion. Still there are
many, whose conduct hitherto has proved them real
friends Of the Union, who arc advocates for this
measure; who sincerely believe it will be 4 means
of calming the public mind and producing ultimate
good. This much will conccdc TO them, but
greatly fear they will find themselves mistaken and
that instead this, the end will be adding fuel to
the fire, and kndling the spark into an uncontrol-
able flame:

Viewing it highly important that, in the ap-
preaching election of President and Vice President
of tho United States, the friends of Andrew Jack
sons reelection should unite in choosing as Vice

the best assurance that he will faithfully, as
well as ably, sustain them: Therefore,

that meeting of the citizens was called on
the spot, who protested to the commissioners
and solicited the mayor for assistance but without
effect. The Commissioners could not alter the
manner of disposing of the stock, from that pre-
scribed by law, and the mayor did not feel himself
authorized to interfere. The throughout was
