WhSseas, ut the last Session of the general
Conference ofthc Dr. T. Church South, propo-
sition was made to expunge from the Book Of
Discipline, the ninth section relating to Slavery,
and whereas majority of said conference voted
against entertaining said proposition, contrary
to the views aud wishes Of this Conference, and
as we believe contrary to our membership gem
orally, therefore be it
Resolred, That this Conference holds that the
ninth section OF our Book Of Discipline does
cia of the Southern People holding member
ship in the M. f. Church South, and in its ma
turr and operation will ever be principle that
will mar the harmony and prosperity OF the
Church South. 4F M o4 6sr

Auburn resolutions, calling for a conyocation
Of the General Conference to reconsider their
action upon that subject.
Resolred, That tho thanks and appreciation
of this Conference are hereby rendered to those
of our delegates who voted for striking out said
ninth section.
Resolred That the Secretary spread the fore

From the Stafford Republican,

THE aSETrLEMENrr-C it be possible, that
the compromises themselves believe they have
SETTLED the Slavery Question :" They say they
have settled it, and their echoes all about the
country, repeat what they say. But do they
really believe it No! They only think and try
to draw attention from it, and they would not
hesitate TO do any thing TO accomplish this OBJ
ject.
1t took about nine months to debauch and
bedevil Congress sufficiently to get through the
Compromise projects. The passage of the Fugi-
tive Slave Bill shows that the work was done
thoroughly.
The compromisers and gamblers for the next
Presidential election try to feel in cxtacies over
what has been done Clay praises Foote. The
Tammany Hunkers praise Clay and Webster.
Fillmore feels exalted The administration pa
pers are taking courage to denounce those who
do not swear by tie Omnibus measures; or if
they do not go quite so far in the more Free
soilish regions they exult over the settlement"
and then by way of appendix say they regret
the loss of the Wilmot Proviso."
Meanwhile we do not hear who are the can
didates for the office of slave-catcher in the va
rous counties of Connecticut. This most dig
nified and honorable Office will doubtless occa-
sion tremendous rush among the o1ce-seeking
gentry. We;re to have three slave-catchers to
4 county.
Meanwhile slavery already exists in Utah, and
Congress must prohibit slavery in the territories
This question settled Gentlemen will see
whether it is or is not settled.
The Frce-soi men Of the country never had
more work to do than at present.

From the Fredericksburg (Eu.) Recorder.

SECESSION --When South Carolina nulified
the tariff law, because she considered it oppres-
sive and unconstitutional, the Legislature Of Vir-
GINA adopted series of resolutions in which
they did not recognise the right of State to
remain in the Union and refuse obedience to
the laws of Congress, but expressly maintaining
the right of secession. This is the position VA
now hold, ard upon none other can states-right
republican stand. The only question, isnot,
Gas it seems to us,) in regard to the right OF
secession, but whether this be or not, proper
occasion for the exercise of that right. We shall
not repeat the facts and arguments which have
convinced us that it is. Let it suffice to say,
that they prove beyond controversy, that the
North by partial and unconstitutional legisa-
ton, have for thirty years beengrowing stronger,
and the South weaker, and from this let us draw
fair and rational deductions Instructive of the fu
tire Let us look at the question not with ex-
element. but in calmness and sobcrness of
thought Let us be guided by our Judgment Of
what is right, worthy of us, and becoming an
honorable people. These questions, we are
persuaded, should be settled by aSouthern Con-
vention OF discreet and sober minded men,
We trust such Convention will be held We
are persuaded that there are many who concur
with these views, who have feen kept from so
wing, from the fear of beirg stigmatiscd as dts
unionists Let them take courage, and come
out.

respectable body of citizens OF the Con yresslonal

terrain Church in the town Of Columbia, ON
Saturday last, at IL o'clock, a. m.
The object of the meeting was to greet their

marks explained the "pace that he had occu-
pied in the picture'-spoke Of the many grie-
vances the South had borne at the hands OF
Northern Legislators, and their only ultimate
remedy, SECESSION.
He thought it best for the State Of South
Carolina, not to be precipitate in rushing into
the breach. He thought that she should await
the action of the Southern Convention and OF
her sister States, Georgia, Alabama and Missis-
sippi' South Carolina he knew to be prepared
to act on any Observation-Disclosures he thought
it best to bide her time, and come into mea-
sures simultaneously with the action OF the
above named States If they refused to con-
slider the late agrressions of the United States
Congress, not sufficient cause for the united,
energetic action Of the Southern States (Which
God forbid then South Carolina lie knew, to

RESOLUTIONS PASSED AT THE Mass MEET
TING AT Town CREEK CHURCH, ON THE 9TH
uLT.-Whercas, in our opinion, an important
crisis has arrived in the history Of this Govern.
ment, in which are involved the dearest interests
of the South-her political rights, her honor,
and future satety--and whereas resolutions have
been almost unanimously adopted by the Leg.
slatures of the Southern States ard by the peo-
pie in their primary assemblies to the effect, that
the enactment Of the Wilmot .Proviso, would be
resisted by them to the last extremity And
whereas, by the admission of California into the
Union, contrary to all precedent, and constitu-
tional law--and by refusing to assert the repeal
of the Mexican law, which abolished slavery,
and which is maintained to hold now in the
ceded territories, Congress has virtually, and to
all Dtents AMI purposes, enacted the Wilmot
Provso, and enforced the great principle thereof,

the territories belonging 10 the United States

Whereas, portion of the population Of that
part of our Territory embraced in the county OF
Santa Fe, countenanced and aided by the OH
GERS of the Federal Government has attempted
to set up therein State Government, in VIOLA
ton of the rights and in open defiance OF the
authorities Of Texas; and whereas the Governor
of this State has called togctherthe Legislature
to consider of the emergency presented by
this action of the people of Santa Fe and the
officers Of the United States, and it is deemed
expedient that there shall be general express
