The gist of the Southern meeting
in Mobile, on Monday night last, IS
contained in the following, the fast
of the regular series of resolutions
ResolvedyThat we cannot acqui-
esce, much.less can we rejoice In
this consummation. Still the mode
1 and measure of resistance, we leave
to the people Of Alabama in conven-
ton assembled. Each State in con-
convention must Judge for itself; but
! we now distinctly express tlle3opin-
1 ION that, if any of the Southern
States acting through a convention,
|, shouldy for these aggressions, secede
from the Union, would abecofne
the duty ofrthIs State, as of all the
other Southern States, sternly to re-
sist the application to such State of
any physical &C ercion, should such
be attempted by the Government of
the United States. ps.Q eaa'"f

lowing extract from the concluding
portion of the late speech of the Hon.
I. David Hubbard, of Alabama, in
Congress, containsmmch truth sensi-
bly, andiforcibly expressed: 4
/ Before j concludes j wish.to, sneak
word to Southern members, and
through them TO The Southern people
upon the subject OF our own eraniscon-
duct; arising from ,ourjealousies and
rlvalshlps among one ar other. 1t is
our own divisions which have ena-
| bled the Northern section of the
Union to encroach upon the rights OF
our constituents And, our conduct
here for the last ten years reminds me
of an incident reported IN history,
J. where England was trying to reduce
Scotland ,tosubmiss!on byarms, Sir
William Wallace, was The patrio, ic
leader of the Scots, and Eng!andg like
our Northern 3opposer, had seduced
many of the Scottish leaders into her
armies, Robert Bruce among others.
y In these contests, it is related that
Z one day, after, n hard fought battle,
Bruce sat downto his meal with the
English mobiles, with his hands all be.
i smeared with the blood Of his own
countrymen slain in the battle; upon
seeing which, naughty English earl
uldnotconceal his disgust. HLookn
said he, at that Scot: see he eats
his own blood This insulting taunt
although true, cut Bruce 10 The
heart. He could not cat another
morsel, but quietly rose from the Ia
BILE without uttering word. That
night Bruce joined the standard O
his countrymen; and never rested, o.
slept quietly until every hostile foot
