Let,meetihgs' therefore be held in every
county in Alabama, to select delegates to
q State Convention to meet not later than
the sth Of Junes to appoint delegates TO the
adjourned National Convention at Baltimore
which assemblies on the 18th of this month,

Vice President. TGe other States whose
delegations Have abandoned themselves to
the Vaccinations Of the unholy Slidell- Dav-

similar action.


From the Petersburg, (Va.> Press, May
5th, 1850:


The Convention having adjourned with
out the accomplishment of the design for

one, unless they are first willing to announce
Willingness and desire to bring about a
disrupture ofthis glorious Union which has
for SO many years found strength in the
hearts Of all true patriots, both North and
South. The South has for q long time pro-

dashed down, annihilated and destroyed, on

threatened by the course and line of policy
proposed by the secessionists from the late
National Convention. Now while we pro-

stitutions as any other man, yet we do say
at this particular juncture we can see no
reason for any movement which has ten
dency to produce so disastrous result. Oh
one thing the south or that portion oft who
sympathize with this new move on the part
of the Southern men. will find deep and
earnest sympathy from quarter from which
few men who really love their country
would desire to obtain it. Is it generally
known in this State that the Black Repub-
can party would much prefer to see an ultra
Southern man nominated to Northern
Democrat ? It is generally know that of all
the Democrats on the face of the earth, they
do most cordially despise Stephen A. Doug.
