NASHVILLE CONVENTION MEETING IN JErrER-
soN.-At meeting of citizens OF Jefferson county,
inMonticello, Florida, on the 18th inst, without
aspect Of party, to takei nto consideration the
proprieiy of sending delegates 10 the second Nash
vile Convention,
Col Robert Gamble, and Smith Simkins were
called to the Chair, and DR.. Thomas NJ. Palmer
was appointed Secretary.
Col. E. Blackburn made few remarks favor
ing the sending delegates, and taking ground that
Congress had legislated away the right Of South
ern people to the new territories with their pro-
perty, and that it would be infamy to submit.
Mr.. Hawkins then obtained the floor and made
some remarks opposing the meeting of the Nash
vile Convention again, under any circumstances
arguing the constitutionalty of the various bills
of adjustment recently passed by Congress, and
taking the ground that they were more favorable
to the South than the Nashville Convention uti-
matum. Col. VIM. s. Dilworth" then rose and
made some remarks complaining Of the admission
Of California as an outrage, and of other grievan-
ces, and favoring the meeting Of the convention
again. DR., Russell then spoke and took extreme
ground in favor Of the Nashville Convention, and
made motion that additional number Of dele
gates to the Nashville Convention be appointed
COL Blackburn then offered the following resolu-
tons:
Resolred, That we approve of the resolutions
and address Of the Nashville Convention, and
most cordially concur in their recommendation to
meet in six weeks after the adjournment Of Con-
gress, and also Of its recommendation to the sew
eral counties in the Southern States to send addi
tional delegates to the said convention.
Resolved, That in view Of the stupendous i'm
portance of the question now in controversy, we
will this day elect two additional delegates to
represent this county in said convention.
After being discussed by J. Fl. Hawkins against
Col. E. z. Blackburn for the resolutions, the
question was then put-yeas Sc, nays 10. Mr..
Hawkins then offered the following preamble and
resolutions: ...... -ra.
PREAMBLE AND RESOLUTION, #a 10
WHEREAS, the Congress Of the United Suites,
in order to settle, in amicable way, the various
differences which have so long and unhappily ex.
listed between the Northern and Southern, States
and between the General Government of the Uni
ted States and the State OF Texas, have, in Their
wisdom, thought it expedient as measure o
peace, and to prevent a dissolution Of the Unior
and the horrors Of civil war that must inevitably
follow upon so unfortunate an event, to pass
series Of measures, 10 wit, The admission o.
California as a free State--the settlement Of The
boundary Of the State Of Texas, with cession
Of q portion of her territory to New Mexico-and
the establishment Of territorial governments in
Utah and New Mexico, without the Wilmot Pro-
yiso thereto ettached-which measures are, IN the

From the Fredenicksburg IA. Recorder.

THE WARRENroN DlNNER-The reported pro-
ceedings Of the dinner given at Warrenton to
our honorable senator's, Mason and Hunter
are full Of patriotic fire. Tame submissionists
may profess to contemn the spirit they breathe,
but that spirit nevertheless commands their
respect, though they may tremble at its bold
ness, and fear to sympathise with it, or lis
ten to its prontptings. 1t is easier to smother,
from prudential motives, a sense of injury and
degradation, than utterly to extngush it, and we
are persuaded, therefore, that there are but few
Southern men who can reflect upon the wrongs
done them, by the recent action of Congress
with cameess or Indifference. May the spirit
exhibited at the Warrenton dinner pervade the
South, and animate her to firm resistance OF
Northern aggression. May it not expend its
power in words, but in efficient action. We have
no space for the many excellent sentiments Of
two following, which were offered by our SENATOR'S
BY Hon. James M. Mason-Our Federal Com
pact-A union founded in the equality Of the
States, and in equality Of right in the people of the
States-in such union, submission, to torong, is
the most dshonored hue of treason.
BY Hon!R. M. T. Hunter-The Constitution
of the United States, and the States united under
the Constitution.
To both Of these sentiments we cordially sub
scribe. Who oan honestly say that in the recent
action of Congress upon the slavery question, the
equality of the States of the Union or the equality
Of right in the people of the States has been re-
cognized? There can be no doubt of the terms
upon which the Union was founded, or Of the OBJ
ects it was designed to secure; that those objects
have been defeated and those terms dsregarded,
all unprejudiced minds, capable Of being influenced
by the logic Of facts, must admit. We say then,
with Senator Mason, that " in such a union sub
mission to wrong is the most dishonored hue of
treason, and with Senator Hunter we desire no
union save Union under the Constitution.

ComdoN Schools IN CAtIF oRNIA Before the
recent immigration to this region, there were but
few schools needed here of any kind Al
Spanish school in Los Angeles, and an English
and Spanish one in Monterey, were all that exist
ed, How different is it now, even though but
few families have as yet arrived! There are
three or four schools in this city, two three in
San Jose; two in Stockton; two or three more in
Sacramento; one in Sonoma; one in Vernon; and
one IN Maysville; not to speak Of others to the
South.
What we still need Is harmonious system Of
education, under the supervision OF an able and
cultivated mind. And this we are likely soon to
have, if suitable person be chosen by the people
at the election on the 7th proXimo.
We yesterday spent part of the morning in
very pleasant visit to the public school in the Bap-
list church, taught by Mr.. and Mrs. J. c. Pelton,
OF this city, late Of Massachusetts. Mr. p.
came to California with the design of becoming
teacher, and for this lie seems well qualified by
education and experience, at least for school
such as he now holds.
We found actually assembled under Mr.. and
Mrs Pelton's charge, over one hundred children,
many of them ofquite tender age, and all, with
perhaps one exception, under ten years of age
This extreme youth of the pupils is accounted for
by the fact that they are mostly of parents who
need the services at home Of such as are Older
But we consider that it is quite out Of the ques-
ton for so large number of children to be prop
ery taught in such circumstances, by one or two
teachers. As well might one of our printers or
merchants do all the business of their several de.
partmens, which is now distributed among so
many. Still this increase of pupils which Mr.. p.
has, is by no means to his pecuniary advantage,
unless he were paid by the scholars, which, we
understand is not the case. Indeed, Mr.. T. has
been so anxious to see free school established
here, that he has been teaching gratis a good part
of the time, since he commenced last December
This ought not to be, and our city fathers would
be projecting an Improvement wiser, more perrna,
nenty useful and cheaper, by voting funds for the
support of schools, than in piovidng for the
grading of streets, and other change in the phy
sique of the town.
The exercises in reading, spelling, and singing
interested US much during our visit.

operation and the efficiency of the concert, should
be ascertained and provided.
We should know what States are willing to
defend our common institutions, and against
what invasions.
You cannot but have observed the angry de-
NAL made on the part of those in the emancipa-
ton interest, of the right of the people of the
States to abandon the government, although it
may have failed to secure any OF the purposes
of its adoption. II is held that the States COM
mitted a suicidal act in adopting the Federal
Constitution. The emancipationists seem to
suppose they have us bound by adamantine chains
which the infiiction of no injustice or wrong will
authorize us to shake of. We are to be held
for experiment and use. / regard this right as
a barrier against oppression under the govern
ment, and remedy for it, if that barrier is over
leaped II is great conservative remedy against
injustice flowing necessarily from the organiza-
ton and structure of our government, and with
out which the Union would have been measure
Of supreme folly.
When we hear the rejoicirgs of the non-slave-
holding States over the fact that they have the
command Of every department Of the govern
ment, this remedy acquires additional conse-
quence. The time has come for the Southern
States to guarantee the right to each other, to
withdraw from this Union whenever Il shall be
the will of their people-that it shall he under
stood this is not Union of force hut of consent
The danger to the Southern States from the
abuse of the military arm of the government, is
another subject upon which precautions should
be taken. ,..ss. .s...

This is to certify, that two or three

wore down to a mere skeleton, and all the
symptoms attendant upon worms Of

passed worms from her nose, followed by
copious bleeding. Attbis time obtained
