5. The abolition of the Slave
trade in the District Of Columbia.
Upon these facts, we solemnly ad'
jured the people of the South to unite
! in one concentrated effort TO save the
/ Union and the Constitution.-We re-
commended them to go into ConVen-
ton, and each State to determine her
position on the questions and exl-
gences Of the crisis. With the north
ern majority and the Federal Gov
ernmeA fatally determined upon the
destruction Of the Institution, on
which our existence depend, We have
nothing to hope save only from our
own unity, resources and strength
When these shall have been exhibit
ed. possibly the North may recede.
The unity of the South may save the
Union of the States.
Resolved, That in view of the ag-
pressions and Outrages inflicted upon
ibe South and those threatened and
impending, we recommend that each
of the Southern States, in the mode
she may adopt do appoint delegates
to a General Convention of all ot the
assaiIed States, to be held at on
day of clothed with Illi au1
thority to deliberate and act, with all
the sovereign power OF the people
with the view of arreSting further
aggressions and restoring the Con-
stitutional rights of the South-if
possible and if not. then TO provide
for the safety and independence OF
the South in the last resort.
ReSolUed, That we urge, as de.
fensive course forced upon us by our
assaiants, and as not only unavoid-
able but essentially just, that the
Southern people do Immediately adopt
the following protective measuses:
/. That every county, district,
parish or other civil division OF each
OF the assailed states, do hold pri.
mary meeting and form a society or
association to adopt and ehectuate
any and all lawful measures and
means, whereby the resources of the
South shall be employed towards do
mestic manufactures and internal
and were by all social
commercial and political intercourse
between the South and North shall
be wholly suspended, until the North
shall become prepared to concede
and guaranty to the South the full
measures of her constitutional rights.

THE SOUTHERN CONVENTION.

This body had not at our last dates
taken any action upon the grave
questions, before it, but each State
represented, was called on for any
resolution they desired TO offer, when
the Delegation from Mississippi intro.
duced the following:
Mr.. Davenport of Mississippi, pre-.
sented the following, which he stated
had received the unanimous sanction
of the delegation from this State:
ReSOlUed, That we have ever cher
ished and now cherish a cordial at
tAchment TO the Union, which the
Constitution of the United States
created; and that to preserve and
transmit such a Union, this Conven,
ton originated and is re. assembled.
ResolUed, That the Union of these
States is Uniou of equal and inde-
pendent Sovereignties; and that the
exercise Of powers delegated to the
General Government can be resumed
by the several States, whenever it
may seem to them to be proper and
necessary.
ResOiUed, That we deem il unnec.
essary to notice the various acts Of
aggression invicted upon the South.
A simple reference TO the wrongs per.
petrated since the FIRST meeting Of
this Convention will suffice; and they
are:

But, in the event Of refusal, ] do no
hesitate to express my decided Opin
ion, that the only effcectual remed.
to evils which must continue to grow
from year to year, is to be found il
the prompt and peacable secession o
the aggrieved States.
The probability ofthe ultimate ne
cessity of a resort to this effective anC
unquestionable righ of sovereign
States, should be kept in view, what
ever measures may be adopted b!
this State, either alone or in concer
with her sister States, to remedy ex
listing evils. In the mean time, and al
early as practicable, it is of the high
est Importance that some cOmmOE
centre of opinion and action should
be authoritively established. Thi.
may be effected by the Conventions
Of the several asserting States pro-
viding for the organization, and sub.
sequent frequent periodical appoint.
ment or election of committee oi
safety for each State, to consist of a
number equal to their Senators and
Representatives in Congress. These
committees, whose duty it should be,
periodically to assemble at some Gen.
trail point for the transaction of busi-
ness, should be invested with adequate
powers, absolute or contingent, to
act for their respective States, upon
all question connected with the pres,
ervation and protection oftheir comes
tic institution and their eqaul rights
as sovereign States. Such body of
men, even ifclothed with the authority
of but two or three States, would
command respect, and secure quiet
and peaceable results to their determ.
nations.
have thus ventured TO present
some suggestions for which am alone
responsible. They may be modified
or changed by the result Of the Nash
vile Convention now in session, and
the action OF the Georgia Convention
which will shortly meet for the pur-
pose of taking the same important
questions into consideration.
Under our system of government,
happily the right and privilege OF
determining these grave -a1d momen-
touS questions, involving the honor
and safety of the State, and the
happiness and prosperity of all its
citizens, whether rich or poor,
or non.slavehoIder, belong
alone TO the people. To them the
appeal must be made, aud their
voice must control and
lirect The destiny of the State. |
therefore, respectfully recommend to
he Legislature, TO provide for the an
of the will Of the people,
" the call Of Convention at an early
ay. In this, there will be safety.
When the sovereign power shall have
poken, all good citizens, whatever
lay be their opinions, will Acquiesce.
I'll will vie with one another in
atrlotic zeal to maintain the dignity
nd authority Of the Stale. Mississip,
/ will then be united. and harmonious
Ounsels, and wise energetic action,
ill secure her safety.
The very important and vital char
cter Of the questions which are forced
pom our consideration, has ed me 10
'ok solely TO remedies, not merely
but effectual and perma-
mt There may be some temporary
medal measures, within the power ,
the Legislature. If such can be
,vised, it will give me great
ea'ure TO cooperate with you in .

THEFUGITIVE SLAVE LAW.

The New York Baptist State Con-
vention, recently in session at Brook.
port, passed resolutions declaring the
new fugitive slave law contrary TO
the spirit Of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, opposed to the immunities
granted by the Constitution to every
citizen, and opposed to the law Of God.
The citizens Of Worcester, at a
meeting recently, resolved, that sho d
the U. :. Marshal, or any one else,
visit Worcester for the purpose OF
making an arrest of any person or
persons claimed as fUgitives from
labor, it should be the duty OF the
committee Of vigilance TO ALARM THE
WHOLE POPULATION ny THE RINGING OF

OFFICERS. Three clergymen off.
cialed at the meeting.-l Phil. Post.
From these proceedings, and the

slave law, no man OF reason will fail
to perceive that it will be repealed.
