THE NAs1vILTE CONvENTTON

THE NASHVILLE CONVENTION.
We learn, by the Pioayune of the 18th IN.
slant, that the committee Of the Convention
have reported unanimously in favor Of extend
ing the Missouri compromise Of Sc deg. so min
70 The Pacific. This Is to be the ulfmatum o
our concessions, and the r%allying point Of all
true Southern men.
This platform, VIC believe, will unite the
South. By uniting the South, we do not ex-
nelly mean what the word would perhaps liter
ally import-that il, make the South a anil, and
every man, woman and child Of the same
mind. This we hayeneyer believed. Wehave
always known that there were menin the South
SO nOfthernised in sentiment, by the constant
perusal Of Eofthern journals Of strong consol-
idation tendencies, that they could never be
brought to unite in the outset upon any plan
Of resistance. And in this class are embraced
many p%ure-minded and patriotic, but mistaken
citizens. But their influence will always be
brought to bear against any scheme for uniting
US among ourselves. Nevertheless, we are
firmly convinced that the proposition for maxi
ing the Missouri compromise the rallying
ground, viii unite us SO far as political action
is concerned, and that each one Of the South
ern States will rally upon the platform, and
the malcontents who are opposed to adopting
that as an uaimatun, will, as good patriots,
yield their convictions 10 those Of a majority of
their Southern brethren.
The democracy will rally with great una
upon that platform, and we hope The
thing may be true of the wings Of the
South. We will express no distrust of them,
il is not our privilege to vouch for their
course. That is the province of their
accredited organs.
The Madisonian. (Canton, Miss.) 1850-1855, 1850-06-20

Resolved, That we tender to the family
Of the deceased, our heartfelt sympalhies
in their sore affection.
Resolped, That the members Of this d.
vision wear the usual badge Of mourning
for thirty days, in token Of respect to his
memory.
Resolred, That the R. S. be requested
to enter these resolutions uron the minutes,
and to furnish a copy Of them to the fam
lily Of the deceased; also, a copy for publ
cation to the Madisonian, Mississippi Gre
ole and Star Of Temperance.
E.. G. HENRY, IS.
The Madisonian. (Canton, Miss.) 1850-1855, 1850-06-20

Mr.. Vehable, Of North Carolina, in re-
terring to the candor of Mr.. Howe, said
that he preferred the bold a~ssissin 10 the
midnight robber, who stealthfully entered
his dwelling. The atrocious doctrine has
been declared, before night, that the slave
States are to be surrounded BY a Gordon of
free, 10 starve out slavery. He knew OF
but one system which he would act on. II a
man should approach 10 shoe: him with his
rife, he would shoot first. A compromise
may be patched up, but the result will Be
that we shall be buried SO deep that no
no hand Of resurrection will or should
raise Us. He was fresh from his constitu-
ents. He addressed them Yesterday and
he told them that if they instructed him
TO vote for the so-called adjustment" he
would not obey. California had sprung IN
like Jonah's gourd-not, however, for as
good a purpose, for that shielded the. pro.
phet's head-but had sprung up to take
from the South her constitutional rights.
He was willing TO run the line Of SO deg.
80 minutes to the Pacific, through the ter
r%tories, and make the Sierra Nevada one
of the boundaries Of California. Then
give territorial governments 10 Utah and
New Mexico west Of the Rio Grande. He
would give to Texas all Of her territory.
and would not consent.tO give her a bride
to part with a portior>oi it. He defended
the rights Of the South and, in the course
Of his remarks, said that he never intended
to live where there was no slavery. If Il
were removed tomorrow, Ne would be IN
favor of 1t the next day. The W races
can live together without destruction u.
either. He wanted the Southern people
TO know that they must rely upon them.
selves. They must take the constitution
aslt 49, and determine to stand BY ii, aud,
i necessary to dc battle for their rights.
L blood should flow, il would be better
than oppression,

Ara meeting Of the physicians Of Can
Ton, and vicinity, held on the morning oi
the 18th instant, DR., James Priestley was
called to The chair, and P, D. Ewing ap-
pointed secretary, when the following pre-
amble and resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, By a recent dispensation Of
Providence, we have been bereft of our
friend and brother, DR.. Henry Field
And, whereas, in his death, we have sus-
tanned a loss, which will be as deeply felt,
and as sincerely deplored, BY those with
whom he has SO freely and frankly inter
changed public opinions, as BY the social
circle, which, as a polished gentleman, he
SO highly graced. Therefore,
1st. Resolved, That We do most hearth
ly sympathize with his bereaved family
and friends, and tender to them, in the time
Of their sorrow, our most cordial condo
~lence; for in his death, an affectionate hus-
band, a kind parent and an honorable friend
has been snatched away.
I'd. Resolred, That we will, in process
sion, attend his remains TO the cemetery,
and while we bury his body in its mother
earth, we will forget his few faults, and re-
member his virtues.
Sd. ResolUed, That in respect for his
memory, we will wear the Usual badge of
mourning for thirty days.
4lh. ResolVea, That the proceedings Of
this meeting be published in the papers Of
this place, and that a copy Of the same be
handed to his bereaved family.

Canon, June l7lh, 1850.

AT a large and respectable meeting, Or
Monday last, of the democratic parry, and
others, opposed to the admission Of Cali.
fornia at this time, previously called in the
Madisonian Of the 18Th instant, Colonel
D. M. Fulton was elected chairman, and
James r. Chambers secretary.
George Calhoon, Esq, proposed the fol-
lowing resolutions, Which, after SOME dis
%cussion by Colonel f. Smith, A. II. Han
dy, Esq, Colonel Monfort Jones, George
Calhoon, Esq, and A. P. Hill, Esq were
unanimously adopted:
l. ResolUed, Thatin regard to The ag-
gressious Of The North upon the South upon
the subject Of slavery, the South owes it
to herself, and the glory of her departed
heroes and statesmen to demand full JUS
tice, and accept nothing else.
2. Resolved That the plan OF q COM.
promise now pending before the Senate
Of the United States, is unconstitutional,
unjust and d~erogatcry 10 the rights and
honor Of the South ; and that she ought
not TO submit to any act Of Congress by
which Its consummation may be attempted,
3. Resolved, That we have learned,
with surprise and regret, that our Senator
in Congress, H. s. Foote, has given this
measure his support; and that such course
Of our said Senator meets our %disapproval
and condemnation.
A.. Resoiped, That the support Of that
measure in the opinion Of this meetings
is disapptobated by an overwhelming ma
jority OF the people of Mississippi, and is
in conAiCt with the sentiments of her leg
i%slature, expressed in resolutions at its last
session.
5. Resolped, That we cannot doubt
but that the Senator referred to, recognizes
the obligation Of public servants, under
our institutions, to carry out the will Of
their constituents; and we cherish the
hope, that before this odious measure is
acted upon he will have learned the senti-
ments Of Mississippi in regard 10 it, and
viii feel that his own opinions should yield
to rhem m, or if not, that he will not retain
a position in which, if he acts at all, he
must actin direct opposition to the will of
his constituents.
g.. Resolued, That while the press teens
with evidence OF the efforts Of that Sena-
tor to ascertain the opinions Of politicians
of other States upon this vital question
we are panied and surprised at the paucily
Of evidence which appears Of an effort 90
his part to ascertain the will Of the people
he represents upon It,
Z. ResolUed, That We highly approve
Of the course Of our Senator, Jefferson
Davis, and our members in the House o
Representatives, upon this question.
On motion Of A. H. Handy, Esq, it was
ResolDed, That a copy Of these resolu.
tons be transmitted, by the secretary, tc
our Senators and Representatives in Con.
gress, and that a copy of these resolutions
be also published in the newspapersi in this
town. D. M. FULTON,
