’ lands to aid said road. The resolution was

the free navigation of the Amazon river.
The committee then returned, and offered a
resolution urging the speedy improvement of
the navigation of the South Mississippi by deep
ening the channel, and also recommending the
“"deepening of the harbors of Charleston, Sa
vannah, Mobile and Richmond. On other sub
jects the committee asked for further time;
hnd the convention adjourned till 4 p. m.
At the evening session, General Quitman of
fered a resolution proposing to divide the reso
lution of the committee relative to the improve
ment of the mouth of the Mississippi and the
Upper Rapids, which caused an animated dis
fcilssion, and was- finally lost by a vote of uine
States to four. The committee’s resolution was
tneb almost unanimously adopted.
Mr. Merrill offered a resolution in favor of a
general and liberal system of public education
among the Southern and Western States.
Mr. Kaiser moved tiie establishment of a
Bureau of Statistics among the several South
ern and Western States.
The Committee on Resolutions not being
prepared with further reports, the convention
adjourned till morning.
THIRD DAY.
Memphis, June 8. —The committee to-day
feported resolutions in favor of direct trade,
the Pacific iailroad, the Tehuantepec route,
manufactures, education, and steamers from
southern ports; and an address to Congress

recently orde-ed by Congress shall be comple

such steps as shall insure the completion of the
main trunk at the earliest possible period.

accessibility at all seasons from all parts of the
Union.
4th. Resolved, That in the opinion of this

make liberal donations of the public lands to
the different States, and to those bordering on
the Mississippi, so as to enable all sections of
the Union to connect themselves with each
other.
The first and second resolutions were passed
unanimously, but the third was warmly debated.
Mr. Kaiser moved to insert the word “central”
in regard to the location of the road, which
was lost by ten States against one. Mr. K.
then moved the insertion of the word “temper
ate,” as regarded the climate, which was agreed
to. The resolutions, as amended, were then
unanimously passed.
Mr. Thrasher offered a resolution regarding
Cuba, which was lost, and the convention ad
journed till the afternoon.
At’the evening session the other resolutions
of the committee were passed without material
change, which occupied the time until the hour
,of adjournment.
The Hon John Bell will address the conven
tion to-morrow morning.
fourth day.
Memphis. June 10. —The Memphis Conven
tion has adjourned sine die. The proceedings
throughout were harmonious and highly inter
esting. Among other resolutions passed was
one that the convention should meet next April
at Charleston, South Carolina. Most of the
delegates have left for their homes, speaking in
ihe highest terms of the courteous treatment
extended towards them by the citizens of Mem
phis.

JiVliereas, tlie Democratic party of the Tllttd
District, having this day met in Convention, to
nominate a Representative to* Congress,. and
that dw being performed with a
which gives promise of certain success to our

triumphed. ‘ , ’
Be it therefore Restsved, That the princis

thatis<|ecessary to constitute a true Democrat.

able character, both public and private, and one

Tlie New School Presbyterians.
We published some days since, the reso
lutions of tlie New School Presbyterian Gener
al Assembly, in regard to the subject of Slavery
and Slaveholders. We are -sorry that, any
Southern man should he found coSfyorating
with such a body of pretended Christians.—
It seems that the Southern Deiegates r protested
against the action of tlie body, and oufe of them,
the Rev. Dr. Ross, of Tennessee, submitted the
following counter queries, which, to say the
least, rather strangely accord with the solem
nities of a grave, and didactic assembly.
Resolved, That with an express disavowal,
not to be inquisitorial, <fco., a committee of one
from each of the Northern Synods of be
appointed, who shall be requested to report at
the next General Assembly :
I. The number of Northern Church mem
bers who traffic with slaveholders and are seek
ing to make monev by selling them negro
clothing, handcuffs and cowhides.
How many Northern Chrflcli members
a.e ioncerned, directly or indirectly, in build
ing and fitting out ships for tho African slave
trade, and the slave trade between tho States.
3. How many Northern
have sent orders to New Orleans, atufe other
Southern cities, to have slaves sold/ td pay
debts coming to them from the South. ‘HSee
Uncle Tom’s Cabin.]
4. How many Northern Church liieijjbers
buy the cotton, sugar, rice, tobacco, oranges,
p : ne apples, figs, gingw, cocoa, melons, dbd a
thousand other things raised by slave labor.
5. How many of these Church members
have inter, earned with slaveholders, anij*
have thu-4*x*me. owners themselves, or enjoy .
the wealth made by the blood of the slav'd—Bbk I
pecially if there be any Northern ministers of
the gospel in such a predicament.
6. How many Northern Church members
are the descendants o? men who kidnapped.ne
groes in Africa and brought them to Virginia
and New England, in former years.
7. What is the aggregate and individual
wealth of Church members thus descended, and
what action is best to compel them tejpuisgorge
this blood-stained wealth, or to tjsake them
give dollar for dollar, in equalizing tho loss of
the South by emancipation.
8. How many NortherplcGu rch members,
ministers especially, haveldvocated murder, in
resistance to the laws offthe land.
0. How maiiyjworthern Church members
own stock in the ‘underground railroads l im
ning oft’ fiptMs.!aves, and Sabbath breaking
railroads dRd canals.
10.. That a special committee be.sent up Red
Rirtfr to ascertain whether Legree, who whip
jjjjprL nele Tom to death (and a Northern gen-
SKraan) be not still in connection with soma
JBnrthern Church in good and regular stand
ing.
11. How many Northern Church members
attend meetings of Spiritual Rappers, are
Bloomers, or \V omen’s Rights Conventional
ists.
12. How many are cruel husbands.
13. How many are hen peeked husbands.
These queries are quite as reasonable and
just as those propounded to slave holders by
tbe silly and impudent abolitionists who com
posed ti majority of the assembly. Still, we
think it would have been much better for the
Rev. Dr. Ross and his Southern friendirtto have
seceded in a body from the religious society
in which they have been unfortunately associa
ted, than to be engaged in perpetrating even
good practical jokes on so grave a subject.—
The enquiries are certtiinlvYery pithy and point
ed, but we must, we cattJP. help questioning
their propriety when tho occasion is ‘'consid
ered. — Sav-IJourier.

New Oilcans and Washington City, seem to
,bo the only ptte'cs in where that
chimera, with much
favor. The N. of the 10th,
‘“The tOjiMr. Petin’s system of
serial navigation have?TOtermined to form a
joint st.ock company to assist him in his experi
ment. Th/Executive Committee were honor
ably discharged man their duties, and a special
committee appointed on Tuesday last, will re
port this evening a matured plan for the oper
ations jipd government of the company.”
k The republic of the 11th, has the following:
gearn that, nearly all the work of Mr.
diroport is finished, and that in one
could be made ready for its voyage in ,
amid strong winds and carrying hu
rht! A little more money, however,
, to complete the arrangements, and a
terest is promised on tho investment, j
■ietor having no doubt about the sue- j
ces**f his airial navigator. But the people at
Ipge have uot the same degree of faith that
Mr. Porter has, and therefore are reluctant to j
r take part in the enterprise. The writer of this
paragraph never expects to travel by means of
the ieroport, whatever may be the calculations
of others who are more fond of novelty and ex
, poet to live longer.”
Mrs. Stowe’s Key and the Bible.
“Mrs. Stowe’s Key is a volume of truths,
strong qe Holy Writ.”— Detroit Daily Adver
tised
The above sentence we clip from an adver
tisement found in a religious paper. It is one
of tbe puffs which is giving circulation to Mrs.
Stowe’s “Key to Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” We
have long been aware that the Garrisonian
School of Abolitionists did not scruple to ele
vate tbe “truths” of their favorite ism above the
scriptures, and it would therefore have pro
duced in us no surprise to hear them compare
Mm. Stowe’s Key favorably with Holy Writ.
But we were not exactly prepared to find such
a comparison sanctioned by an evangelical
newspaper. It is remarkable how close is the
affinity between abolitionism and infidelity.—
The i’uuatie is at first, contented to place his
dogma on a level with Holy Writ. But when
lie finds that Holy Writ fails to sustain him in
what he calls philanthropy, he can better af
ford to give up God’s word than to relinquish
his “one idea.” It is an axiom with him, that
(lie creed of anti-slavery is truth, and if the
Bible teaches otherwise, he will “throw away
the Bible and learn his religion from the flow
ers of the field.”— Christian Index.
Creeps, Weather and Rivers.
; The Richmond (Madison Parish) Journal of
the 20th, says:
“Had there been less rain, there would have
V“n ‘ grusH in our crops. Asa general
thing, however, we believe onr plantcfs'arc weft
satisfied with their prospects, though we have
heard considerable complaint about cotton dv
ing out.”
The West Point (Ga.) Beacon of tlie 9th,
says:
“For the last two or three weeks we have
had extremely dry weather, with scarcely rain
enough during tho time to lay the dust, and in
consequence of which the growing crops of
corn and cotton are suffering very much. —
Should this state of things continue much lon
ger, the prospect of the plantei-s will he any
thing else but cheering.”
The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel of the
21st, says:
“We are aware that it is very common to
speak of the weather as extraordinary and un
precedented, yet we think that either epithet
may be applied to the present drought with
perfect propriety, for we have no recollection of
having witnessed such an one at this season of
the year as has prevailed for five or six weeks in
this section ; and regret to learn that it extends
over a large pui iion of this State, South Caro
lina and Florida, to the great injury of the
crops, and to extent that the forest
trees in places, ws*Brn, are dying from it.”
Fire in Charleston.—The Charleston
Courier, of the 16th inst., says: “At a quarter
before 10 o’clock hist evening, a fire broke out
on board tlie ship Condar, Capt. J. G. Barstow,
recently from New York, but now loading at
Boyce <fc Co.’s wharf, for Liverpool. The fire
companies were promptly on the spot, and, as
we write, are engaged in filling her. How the
fire originated is not known. She had on
board about 1800 bales of cotton, a very large
proportion Upland. We are gratified to
learn that the Insurance Companies of this city
are very small sufferers, the bulk of tho cotton
icing insured abroad.”

[From tlie New Orleans Delta.]
From Texas.
By the arrival of the steamship Louisiana, Cnpt j
Smith, we have Galveston papers to the 10th inst., 1
and corresponding dates from other parts of the !
State.
The Galveston News of the 10th has tho follow
ing intelligence from the so-called gold mines:
Mr. J. Howard and Dr. Thornton, of this city,
returned yesterday morning from Hamilton’s Val
ley, whither they travelled in search of the “gold
mines,” nnd to view the country. Mr. 11. informs
us that the party to which he was attached spent
about seven days in the neighborhood of the
Sandies, and all that they had been able to dis- j
cover, after repeatedly washing panfulls of earth, i
was a few mßtlte'parlicles’ of gold, so small that
a hundred of them would not bd worth five cents.
Ho is thoroughly satisfied that gold is not to be
found in sufficient quantity to pay half a dollar a
day. He was informed by the settlers in the vi- j
cinity that no piece of gold larger than the head i
of a amnion pin had been discovered. Abund
ance of quartz rock was found, but none of it con
tained any gold.
In tho same neighborhood is some old Spanish
or Mexican silver mines, but they are not rich.
Mr. Howard’s statement is entitled to the ut
most confidence, and we call the attention of i
those papers to it that have given circulation to ;
the exaggerated rumors of thatrichness of Ihe
mines.
It is believed by 6ome that the rumors were in
dustriously started to induce immigration and at
I tract attention towards (liar portion of Texas,
land owners. It is ih-scribel as a beautiful
try indeed, and deserving of notice. Fine
ry, rich soil, and pure, limpid^teams are
teristics rendering it most attractive. ’ AH
The impression in the interior with ninny

The one, for bis intemperate zeal, as manifested

Father Gavazzi seems to have some opportune!
ta enliven the newspapers. We are all full of the!
details cf the viot, which was certainly a most di
■grh’ ieu* -'vike. lbopress, and m the Parliament,
there are ,i two opinion.-, tlie dpliiihu is, that
itinerant lectures, on quasi-religious topics, are
nuisances, but that, to interrupt them by force, is
p flagrant violation of all civil and religious liber
ty. No one lias any right to go nnd listen, un
less lie means to listen patiently. If any one
speaks any- thing blasphemous or indecent, that is
a thing! for, the police to apprehend, and fertile
courts of justice to correct,. Polemic abuse has
never lieen considered, however degrading indi
viduals, any legal sin.
AVe can not, possibly, enter into any portion of
the theological questions raised by M. Gavazzi,
any more than we did into those raised by Mr.
Brownson. Nothing is easier than flinging dirt;
and unfortunately, the sins of humanity arc too
many not to leave to every uncharitable man
sufficient materials for reproach. In saying so, we
are not attempting to balance the merits of any
religions creed; the only opinion we wish to ex
press is, that reproach is not charity.
