agriculture prosperity for prurent enervating,
and corr uptng comnercid development
But be this as it may, nothing could be more Chi
merical than the notion that high commercial de-
yelopment be secured by occasional conventions
of citizens and planters and the experience of
seven eight ten years of trial at the South has
only taught fact which might have been predicted,
and was predicted, at the outset.
Tho latest of these Southern Commercial Conven-
tons have seemed to recognise this fact themselves
and to indicate their conviction of by leaving south
to take care of itself and turning their
attention into genial field Of politics The debates
of the convention sitting in Montgomery, Ala
bama to have been innocent of all reference to
southern commerce. as the Buncombe speeches made
here in Committee of the Whole in the House, are nno
cent of all reference to the subject matter Immediately
under confederation there They have turned alto
geher the question Of reopenng the African slave
trade aproect which dare say every southernS
would vote down by overwhelming majority and,
to lug which into southern deliberations in any
arena only the bad purpose of dividing the
southern mind, just as the agitation of the slavery
question at the North to distract the northern
mind. The history Of these conventions only serves
to prove the truth Of old proverb which teaches,
that when men have nothing to do they are apt to
do mischief, that idle brain is the DEVILS work
shop. s @

civil expenses Of the government for the year ending
the 30th june 1852 it discovered that of the
representatives Of the dear people quietly sleeping

carelessly thrown the back of his head Sud-
denly the debate the proposition to substitute diff

GUS efforts of member from of the western dis

to obtain the OF the Chairman The perseverance, Of
the member rewarded such perseverance always

from another State raised point of order that It

for the accomplishment of any other purpose 1t is
needless to add that the point of order sustained
but for all that the object which the gentleman had in
submitting his motion accomplished The eyes of
the whole House. together with those of the struggling
spectators all directed to the luxurious sof and
when the sleeper did wake, his first yawn greeted
with uproarous laughter and the clappng of hands, We
leave the reader to imagine his feelings for he said

Later in the day representative from the pine tree
State requested gentleman who defending the bill
under consideration not to be vehement in his decla
nation lest he should wake up those energetic members
who had strven mnfuly the other night to procure
the attendance of quorum by arrestng honorable gen

them within the bar of the House Upon waking, the
gentleman again found himself object of wonder and
again greeted with the laughter of his fellow
bers.
