A convention Of the slaveholdine

and out Of Congress, avowedly for the pur>
pose Of affecting It's abolition in the Slales
aud also in view OF The facts set forth in the

deliberate conviction that the lime has ARR

counsel together for the common safety and
that q convention OF the slaveholding States
should be held OF Nashville, Tennessee, on
the first Monday in June next, 10 devise and
adopt some mode OF resistance 10 these ag

Twelve delegates and twelve slternales--
being double the number OF our Senators and

The project of a Southern Conven
