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.

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 rW* I-I 1- - - i ? wm o\/inv iiiuiv'iif cv,r? i uio exact number I have been unable to find out. + + 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 Khl'itni^n ..II MMi! 1 i.vi wj oil' i ins n'lii.iius lis vH3ys j the Philadelphia 15u!!etin) of* the sylo-1 jrism, by which some crazy Puritan once sought to defend the wars upon 1 the Indians, "the earth is the .Lord's ; and the fulness thereof; we arc the | Lord's people ; ergo the earth is ours j alone."

The writer,; 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.
