So the politician, who has mistaken the

measures, and does not hasten to retrace his
steps and put himself right before his con-

bitterness of defeat, to regret that he had
not oboyed the honest proverb, and by a

THE SOUTHERN CONVENTION met at Savan
nah on the 9Th inst, 600 delegates appeared
from ten Southern States; five, viz: Missis-
sippi, Arkansas, Missouri, Kentucky an
Delaware, were not represented. The Con
vention was, after prayer, organized bJ the
election of Mr.. James Lyons, as President,
who on taking the chair, made long speech
declaring it to he the desire of the South to
maintain the Constitution and the Union, but
it was their intention to prepare for future
contingencies. The speech was out Of place
unless politics rather than commerce was the
purpose of the meeting. The members gene
rally manifested a strong conservative spirit
in their remarks The Pacific Railroad and
the Nicaragua question will be the prominent
topics The re-opening Of the slave trade
will be blinked out Of sight. A resolution
was offered instructing Southern members Of
Congress to urge the repeal Of the tariff and
the law interdicting the slave trade, which
was unanimously laid on the table. A reso
luton was offered that all notes and bonds
given by Southern men be made pay able al
the South. The convention thought it wisest
to borrow money where they could, and leave
the terms of payment to the lender. 1t was
resolved that each member subscribe 800 t.
the stock of Dudley Manns European Steam
ship Line, but this was afterwards reconsider
!, ed and laid on the table. Resolutions in favor
of supporting the government by direct taxa
tion Of educating Southern youths at home
of encouraging Southern books were Offered
and discussed; the pertinence Of these SUI
!, iects to the commercialinterests of the Soutl
was not made apparent.

Power OF CoNGREsS OVER THE Terrific
RlEs.-In the debate in the Senate of the
U. S. on the Presidents Message, Mr.: Trum-
bull Of Illinois, asserted that the U. S Su-
preme Codrt had defined the powers of Con-
gress over the Territories. Gen. Cass inter-
rupted him with the remark, that he had new
er heard Of the decision. Mr.. Trumbull sent
for the first volume of Peters Reports, and
read from page $40, in the opinion pronoun-
ced by Judge Marshall in the case of the
American Insurance Company against Canta,
the sentence: "In legislating for them (the
"Territories) Congress exercises the combined
power of the General and State Govern

timating what people can pay, we should
count the productions of their annual labor
and business. Their real estate has no value
as security for debt except as it contributes to
business and labor. If labor languishes, the
value OF houses and lots in a city yanishes
Ike mimic castles in the clouds.
We don't know much of the present condi-
ton of Savannah. She pays her 100000
interest. Her property, business and popula-
ton have increased amazingly; and we see in
a valuation of the city property, lots and
lands belonging to the city government, val
ued at 100000. which before her railroad
enterprises were started would not have sold
for $4,000. We can only judge Of the effect
Of her policy by this single instance.
The history Of Mobile enterprise is but a
repetition of Savannah's history. Mobile with
population of 10000, and about 1900 or
1900 whites, undertook, almost unaided, one
of the gigantic enterprises Of the day. She
has many local disadvantages; the country i'm
mcdatey around her is unproductive-she is
inaccessible to ships, which lie 10 and II miles
below, at an anchorage, to which it costs as
much to lighter cotton, as to send it to New
Orleans; and the trade Of her rivers was de
serting her and going to New Orleans Lines
Of steamers were running from ali the large
towns on the Alabama, Tombigbec and War
rior rivers, carrying freight and business pas
her wharves to another State. Her renta
scarcely paid her taxes-her population wal
deserling-her streets were her pastures, anc
gloom and dependency were gathering upoI
her spirits, when she took courage from thu
example OF Savannah, and followed in her foo;
steps, with a success that will eclipse her pat
tern. We have 10 statistics by US now t
state the liabilities Of Mobile for her railroads
We believe they exceed 100000, and he
citizens are paying railroad tax Of 211a pc
cent. annually on all their assessib les; and NJ
contribution was ever made by people NOR
cheerfully-
This is tho spirit manifested at the South
where it is supposed enterprise, energy ant
public spirit are dead-among peopl
oppressed, we say, by an institution, wither
ing demoralizing and ruinous in all its in
fuences. If under cur happier auspices GU
people could be stimulated to like enterprise
we should see equally happy results. Itneed
but the heads, the hearts and the hands to &C
compish them. This latter proposition we vii
reserve for another day, as we have said al
ready more than will be read, we fear.
