STATE CONVENTION.

BeA. Tomorrow the people of Montgomery are
to vote for or against Convention and for dele
gates to said Convention in case there is a majority
vote for it. Should il so happen that the majority
Of such delegates nre men of high intelligence tried
patriotism and known prudence, Convention will
prove the best moe of shaping the action of Ten
nessee in the present crisis, and the most effective
means through which to make known the demands
Of the State and to give weight tc those demands.
If such body win firmly plant itself upon the
Crittenden Amendments" as the ultimatum of
Tennessee, and make its concession the condition of
continuance in the Union not only will the people
sustain the position but it will go far towards
vncing the North that nothing else can keep every
slave State from seeding so soon as the refusal to
accept them is authoritatively made known. In Or
der, then, to make the Convention effective Of good
it is indispensably necessary to elect men to it who
are committed to no ultra vievs-men who know
what is due to the honor and interest of Tennessee
and have the prudence to adopt the best means for
securing both. Immediate secession is neither
remedy for the grievances complained of nor does
II promise one single advantage that counterbal-
lances the evils that may follow it. It'll an extreme
measure-right and proper whenever the North
shall deliberately deny us our rights and rely upon
the force Of numbers justify aggression; but it is
no way to secure our rights in the Union, because
il is abandonment of them as we'll as the right to
demand them. The true policy of the State is to
make its demands, through Convention and then
await the decision of the North. If favorable, the
Union is saved; if not then the time to have re-
course to the extreme measure of secession. We
favored the call Of Convention, trusting to the in
telligence and patriotism of Tennesseeans to make
it the instrument Of national good by securing
Southern rights and we cannot believe that the
vote tomorrow, will disappoint this expectation
Let that vote be full that the wishes of the peo-
pie may not be misunderstood on the subject OF
holding Convention, aud let it be cast for men
good and true whose acts will rebound to the honor
Of the State and be promotivc of justice and peace
and Union.

of the Hon W. W, Pepper, the presiding Judge Of

gkS" As an argument in favor of immediate Sc
cesson, we ore told that majority of the Northern
States have violated the Constitution, nufed
law of Congress, and aided in giving us a sectional
President whose leading political idea is opposition
to slavery. This is all true and more than this,
the same party-acting upon the license granted
them by the resolutions of 1889 has virtually
repudisted decision of the Supreme Court, a CO.
ordinate Department of The Government But does
il follow because lawless fanaticsm has done these
things, that the South shall abandon its rights in
the Union-submit to these wrongs without
struggle, and fly from the uplifted arm of the enc
my and seek safety and protection under another
government yet to be organized? This is not the
way statesmen and brave patriots ought to act and
we trust that Tennessee will not fly as long as
there is chance for victory but bravely face the
enemy, and if defeated, them retreat with honor to
apostion outside of the Union 1t will be as easy
to secede under Lincoln it is under the dotard
who now doses in the White House, and it will be
more magnanimous to defy the Republican leader,
when the proper time comes than to elude the i'm
beetle grasp Of Buchanan for fear that stronger
hand may hold the reins of Government. Should
coercion be the policy of the incoming Admins
traton, Tennessee will stand ready todischarge her
whole duty but whilst that question is in abey-
ance let her pursue the dictated by true pa
triotism and wisdom, and if the worst must come,
she viii stand acquitted in the opinion of mankind,
of Al responsibility for whatever may follow A
good cause and clear conscience will be her shield
and solace in the hour of trial. and should brave
hearts and strong be needed to meet the crisis
not the iewest of these will be furnished by those
TennesseeOns who are now stgmatized as submits
sonists.
Lincoln can harm us no more If we secede after
his Inauguration than if we go out now. In either
case, he will have the army and navy, if he can
make them fight, and the empty Treasury, if be can
make it available. Why, then, should he be held
up as a bugbear to frghtcn us into hasty action ?
If he chooses TO settle the cOnroyered rights Of the
South by inaugurating civil war; let him take the
responsibility; but whilst there isreace let Ten
ncssee strive to continue it by securing her own
rights in the Uuion, and with them the rights of
her sister slave States.
