The Southern Conveftiox.?
We lake tho lb Ho wing extracts Iron i
the Nashville Arbetfcan, in reference j
I to llie Southern Convenlipn:
Tlic Convention assem&ed under |
a prejudice state of feeling on the pari
ol thousands in the South, who had
been misled by the presses opposed
f, ' to its convening and really began hon-;
estly to imagine that its sole object |
was to propose direct plans ofsepara- j
ting the Confederacy. * *
The convention met, composed of;
the ablest and most patriotic stalesmen
of the Nation'. Perhaps there
has never before been convened in the
Union, an assembly which could boast i
of morejjenius and practical wisdom.:
And what is still more commendable, ;
they came thoroughly imbued with ]
the most intense love of tlu; Union and I
desires to perpetuate to the latest posterity,
a government bequeathed to
us pure and undefiled.
* * The phantom ofTrcason not
once intruded upon its deliberations.
I he spirit ol harmony was invoked
and prevailed during the whole ses-!
sion. They met as men meet who
know their rights and intended to as-j
sort them. * * The effect of the!
late ('(invention hero, has been to dis- ;
ipate the aspersions which have been
heaped upon it. \\ hat influence it!
will have on the North and in Congress
yet remains to be seen. That it
will prove salutary, we entertain 1
scarcely a doubt
The following from the Nashville
Gavotte, is entitled (o more weight,
coming as it does from a press which '
has bitterly opposed the meeting of
Delegates from Southern States on
the ground of its being unwise and j
impolitic at the present time. We j
dout not that many papers will follow
ihe lead of the Gazette, and acknow- j
ledge the wisdom and policy of the !
Convention and insist strenuously that j
its recommendations be carried out j
by the people of the South. The fol-!
lowing is the extract referred to:
uWc doubt whether the lower |
House of Congress often affords a
greater intellectual feast than that i
spread by the convention, and which |
was highly enjoyed by many of our
citizens, who will not soon forget it.
The debates have had the effert of
lliorlifvinor. in enmo iloirron
.........J ...V wp,JWsition
which was expressed against
llie convention before it met, and the
result of its deliberations, should Congress
fail to adjust the questions in !
controversy, between the North and
the South, will doubtless, hove the effect
of causing every Southern State i
to send delegates to the convention
when it meets again. It were well
for the Northern Representatives in
Congress to take warning. There is j
a point of andurance bc3'ond which
no true Southern man will permit
them to go, and they are hastening to
that point. If they do not pause, they j
may raise a storm which can scarcely !
bo controlled"
Outt New Sf.natou.?The South- j
ern Press of Friday, says: "i\l r. Barn- j
well, the new Senator from South j
Carolina, was called up by Mr. 1
Footo's exposition of the. views of his !
predecessor, and defined his position
and that of the South with equal zeal !
and ?j!oquence.?Mr. Barnwell is a j
very impressive and dignified speak-1
or?clear and concise in his state* j
nients of facts, logical in his reason- '
ing?and very decided in the expres- i
s!.on of his opinions. He took strong i
Southern ground, hut expressed lite
willingness, for the sake of concord,
to accept the Missouri Compromise
bill."

More Indian Muudkrs and I)n- j
i'ukdations in Texas.?The Gal-1
vest on News has a letter from Sail
Antonio, of the 7th ult. which says '
The Indians are getting very troublesome,
and what is still more astonishing,
commit their depredations
all over the immediate neighborhood
of this city, killing persons within 0 or
8 miles, and even as near as ahout a
mile from here-, also, in killing cattle,
and showing themselves in the even
ings at different parts of the suburbs,!
or leaving their trails behind. Some |
few of their depredations I will here
mention.
j.M)ur days ago news was brought
$ to town that 1 he bodies of two men
'J Wore found about six miles from here
on tiie Fredericksburg road, where
not the least doubt iscntertained that
were killed by Indians, (inrtsmuch)
ns in one body thWjro were 5,
ami in the other 4 arrows', and both
were scalped* A trail was alho immediately
discovered leading to ihe
- x ueno viejo, one 01 ine. passes oy
#, wbftjn the. India/is generally enter in I
coming to this city. The two persons
rts above found arc Germans,
who went out there to cut mosquito
grass* Their names are Edward
^Tollman and Piegejman, the
>j&firttl nam d about 10 years of age.-A
pftrjy of some 6 gentlemen of this
place left here yesterday morning in
company with the brother of H. 'I'., j
ay#. one. ol the new Hanger companies,
for ih<- purpose of burying the bo
situated about i) miles from this city, j
was visited by the Indians, and that j
they took from there 8 mules and 3 :
horses, they being in an enclosure.?
As soon as the news reached here, i
Mr. Guilhoau left in pursuit with a ]
party of about 10 men, found the trail
on (lie "F-l Pinto11 pass, but was un- !
able to get hold of the Indians, a.id j
returned accordingly- On that very
same day, the raucho of Mr. Matins '
Garillo, which is in the same ne*gh-'
borhood, was robbed by the Indians j

Tu \ni: with Japan.?Some of the '
tonglish papers are agitating the sub- j
jeet of forcing a trade with Japan.? :
A writer in the United Service Jour- !
nal, after recapitulating the faihue ofj
both this country and France to open :
peaceful communications with the i
Japanese, recommends that Great
Britain should now t:y her hand, and
in a fashion that could not be refused'
IIe urges the despatch of a ma.urnifi
cent embassy, accompanied by a licet, j
so lluit if friendly overtures fail-, powder
and ball may carry the point.? j
1 lis argument is, that Japan has cer- ;
lain commodities necessary to the :
comfort and luxury of other portions ,
of the world, and that hence she has
no right to close her ports or refuse !
to exchange products and nmnufae- j
hires with European nations. The
earth, he maintains, is the common

however, after all his logic, admits |
that whipping the Chinese into opening
their ports, has not made them
buyers of Knglish manufactures; and
we do not see how he can expect a
different result in Japan. It is not .
strange, in an age like this, to see
sucii doctrines gravely advanced f

constituted the. u ndcrsigned a connnitteo to
superintend the establishment of a Southern ;
Press at Washington City, to 1>c devoted to the !
exposition and defence of Southern rights nnd '
institutions?the dissemination of correct in- >
formation as to Northern policy, und the course j
of political affairs generally, without reference
to the old party lines of Whig nnd Democrat.
Arrangements are now in progress, promptly to
ensure ti?e issno of such a paper under tho I
title of

for the conduct of which, suitable Editors have
been engaged, who will idreceive the aid of

There wHlbo both a tri-weckly and a weekly
issue?the latter to contain substantially the
same matter as the former, and intended to i
reach those points of tho country who-je mail
facilities are limited.
A Daily issue will be added hereafter, should |
it be deemed advisable or noces.cnry by tho i
press and peoploofthe Southern States.
Tho popcr will not bo exclusively political?
| but will embrace on its broad shoot t!io general
no ts of the (lay, domestic. and foreign, by
I mail and telegraph; commercial and agricultuj
ral and litcraryjpieccs; criticisms, original e.sIsays,
literary and miscellaneous; and, in t-hort,
all those items of general interest, tlie collected
aggregate of which constitutes the interesting
and valuable Newspaper. Great care
j to taken to^iu' fuiliUm voi reci liejiori of j
the Proceedings and Debates in both Houses |
oi Congress; as well as t ho action of the local
Legislatures on tlic Southern question.
A limited number only of Advertisements
will bo received?the main object being to furnish
(i large amount of reading matter.
The paper will be printed on a sheet equal
in size to those of the other Washington papers
; an?l tho material will bo procured especially
for the purpose.
Jt is confidently hoped that every trno
friend to tho South will a id in procuring auberibei's,
and forward the names, with the
amount subscribed, to somo Southern Iteproeentativo
at Washington, forthwith.
