THE SOUTHERN CONVENTION.

Our Telegraphic report, last week, was incor
rect in saying that the Address Of Mr.. BerrieI
had been adopted by the Southern Convention
instead of that of Mr.. Calhoun. The question OF
the adoption of Mr.. Berriens Address was deci
ded in the negative, yeas l6, nays SO. That O
Mr. Calhoun was then adopted, yeas 80, nays
49,
The Address agreed upon, however, is said to
have been amended by adopting some suggestions
of Mr. Benien, from which the erroneous state
ment above alluded to may have arisen. The
whole proceedings of the Southern Caucus were
intended to be secret-and the movement is fitly
compared, in point of odiousness and disorgani-
zing fanaticism, to the Hartford Convention.
Mr. Berrien, it will be recollected, is one of
the most prominent of the Southern Wings His
address presented markefcontrast to that of Mr.
Calhoun, in the mildness of its tone, and in a
settled determination, to stand by the Union, at
all hazards. This address was supported by ere
ry Wing from tie Stare States, Gov Gayle, of Ala
bama, alone excepted, while that of Mr. Calhoun
was as unanimously sustained by Southern Dem
ocrats. The large and influential minority which
steadily oppose this ultra Southern movement
will effectually destroy all its force-and the re-
sistance of Mr.. Berrien and the Wings of the
South, has already, if we mistake not, given a
blow to the authority of the Arch Nullitier and
DisOreanizer, from which he will not soon rccov-
er. Not one of the Southern Wings, it is said,
will sign Mr.. Calhouns Address
