much interest felt In the coming charge of
Judge CatroD, as it emanates from Southern
Judge, and who is supposed to be q Union
man; Certainly the weight OF his feelings may
involve important precedents, and upon his
action depends the conviction Of many an ar
rant traitor.
The State Convention has been called to-
getker again-thfs time to assemble in Jeffer.
son City on the essd Of July. The State jour

ton could not be assembled, and that the
schemes Of the Union men were thereby foiled.

calls upon every friend Of State rights in the
Convention to attend the session at any sacri
fee, and If they are unable to carry out their
programme in peace at Jefferson City, to ad.
iourn to the Ozauk mountains or the camp of
The State troops where they will be protected.
