CHARLESTON, May 7.-Soutaern Conuention-
The proceedings of the Southern Rights Con-
vention yesterday justify the belief that very
large majority of the members are determined
upon separate State action. Judge Butler and
Hon. Langdon Cheves have in vain endeavored
to stay the current. Their moderate counsels
are entirely dsregarded. Mr.. Rhett is evil

commencing the secession of South Carolina,
solitary and alone, were received with tremen-

prevails throughout the city To-day will de-
eide the fate of our State.
HALF-PAsT TEN.-.Second Despatch. Nothing
definite transpired in the convention to-day.
The committee reported an address and resolu-
tons which were ordered to be printed, and
will be considered tomorrow. During the ses-
sion to-day several strong resolutions were
offered fayoring immediate separate State ac-
ton. Referred. A letter was read from Lang
don Cheves, regretting his inability to attend
/ the deliberations Of the convention, and depre-
eating separate State action. He advised for
bearance and Cancellation, and expressed the
opinion that the main dependence Of the Soutl
was on the Democracy of the country, and tina
the question had better be settled at the ballot
box The letter was laid on the table ant
ordered to be printed. The resolutions ant
address submitted by the committee are to tn
effect that South Carolina cannot submit to he
wrongs without dishonor and ruin, and that i
was necessary she should relieve herself, whe
ther other States joined her or not.

THE PRESENT STATE OF RoME.-From our
foreign files we gather that the state Of affairs
and Of the public mind in Rome is not Of the
most peaceful promise. The faction which gov

rulers are ill-assured by the presence of their
own native and foreign spies, knowing that they
are the objects Of popular hatred. They trem-
BILE at every breeze that brings the echo of a
new cry for liberty in any part Of the world.
All the energy of the government is at present
devoted to the collection Of funds, which it de-
spatches to Dutch English and American bank
ers, in view of the catastrophe which it fears
Therefore, despite the increase of taxes and o.
all other means of squeezing their substanc,
from the people, the treasury is always empty
and misery is at its height.
To illustrate the melancholy condition o.
affairs, we note story which says that the
Pope, whenever he receives any person not Of
his immediate circle, holds in his hand, and
with as much concealment as possible, the cord
of bell, which is answered in three different
places where guards and domestics are assem-
bled. The Pope was lately las runs the story
giving audience to Dandini, an old advocate of
20, and fancying that he observed the bell-pull,
his Holiness dismissed him angrily, saying,
EDO you come here to play the spy? begone ~

sacred presence as rapidly as possible.

reason for his absence, that his father kept him
to help grind the handsaw. A topper, account
ing for bad cold he had, said he had slept on

the water making free passage over him, when
asked how he came there, replied that he agreed
