Southern Conveutiou-southcrn Politicians
Pacific Railroad.
The Southern Convention which lately clos
ed its session at Charleston, S. c., had great
deal to say about a Railroad to the Pacific
especially for "thc SOUTH" The chief talk
crs assumed as beyond dispute that the South
crn route was altogether the hest,-that the
great aim Of the G,lslcn Treaty was to Sc
cure the wav for it-that all tho objections to
the treaty wore from Northern men, and out
Of spite :, the South" Gen. Gadsden, as
the report states, even made the ridiculous
statement that Commissioner Bartlett was
instructed ny Mr. Seward to run the boun-
Diary line, under the Treaty with Mexico, so
as to cut of from "the South" all chance of
getting Railroad t, the Pacific.
10 great extent, 60 great az t. he charae-
terist.c, the southern public men take it for
granted that the world is made for "the
South that the Government is constituted
for "the South that wisdom, honor pa
triotism, diplomatic skill, executive ability,
all have THEN special home at the South. -
They admit the existence Of illiblrality in the
nation, but none e il 10 at the South. " If
any Statesman rrrsumes to say that some
measure, unta5telul to "tne South will be
for the intcrc7t Of the nation al whole' he
itat once denounced aa a foe to 1.-THE south
