the text of the last sermon. "And what

ALABAMA AND THE NASHVILLE Con-

ALBANIA, which has just ended its session,
no legislation took place on the slavery
subject. Each House, it is true, passed d
resolutions concerning it, but neither
House would agree to the others reso-
lulions. Delegates to the proposed
Nashville Convention were appointed by
the members Of the Legislature, but not
nnder any legislative act declaring any
particular objects to be accomplished by
that convention. In addition to this
there is the positive contrary action oI
the Legislature of both Kentucky and
Tenne which we have heretofore
noticed; aud we have now the statement
also from New Orleans. that the Louisi'
ana Legislature are strongly opposed tC
any revolutionary movements. and are
not disposed to recognize tho Nashville

has recommended that $250,000 be pla.

to be used in case Mississippi is thrown
on her reserved rights in the great con,

the slavery question. In view of this
fact, contemporary respectfully reminds
the sovereign State of Mississippi that
there is a small balance of several mil.
lions of dollars due from her to certain
creditors, part of which her Legislature
has repudiated but another portion sim.
