To the People of the Southern and
SOUTH-WESTERN STATES.
„ At the meeting of the Southern Convention, in
Knoxvil.e, the undersigned were appointed a com
mittee to address yon, in anticipation ofthe Conven
tion which is to be held in Montgomery, in the State
of Alabama, on the loth day of May next.
The object of the addles, as we understand it, L-
to remind yon of the approaching session of the Con
vention, and to urge you to appoint delegates to it;
and wc proceed now to perform that duty.
The motive which prompted the organization of a
Southern Commercial Convention, waa the desire to
ascertain the canaei of the decline of the foreign
commerce of the Southern States, aud to dev&e
some plan for its revival and restoration, fhe peo
ple of the Southern States saw and felt the anoma
lona fact, that the country which produces three-
fifths in value of tho exports of the nation, had not
only lost its commercial supremacy, but had become,
commercially, a dependent upon and ye! a tributary
to that portion of the country which produced much
the smallest portion of those exports J his waa not
only nu unnatural, but an exhausting and depressing
presence of such is demanded bv the distempered
-tHto ot the times and magnitude of the interests to
>*• conMt.ered. Let not the sneers or denunciations
ol jour opponents, or your enemies deter you. iind
■"Lvink not under the cry of‘’Disunion.’'
lii*' Convention will not consider the question of
nv question tending to produce that re-
iul, peaceful, patriotic object will be
prosperity, and to increa-e the wealth
uutifnl and beloved South; to n
pier, if possible, and more willin
perform all their duties in th
oisunion, ol

i'in shall arrest the march of fanaticism, and stay
1 i"i "i oppression. Hut it ins! n usun shall i
be found, and ^patriotism, aud sympathy have b
xtingiii-h. it—if those who should be our broth
shall prove to be malignantand implacable foes, a
cupidity and ambition shall dtnolve the tie whl
binds na together, still our work will have been teell
and wisely done, if we succeed in restoring the com
mercial independence of the South, and build up our
own towns and enrich our own people by our own
means, which now buildup and enrich others—forthe
Southern States will then be prepared more fully to
meet the issue thus forced upon them, and able to de
fend as well as justify their position when they shall
be compelled M to assume among the powers of the
earth, the separate and equal station to which tho
laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them.”
Earnestly we beg you then, men of the South, to
torn out and send full delegations of your noblest
sons to the Convention.

Sewing Machines.
Mr. Editor:—As the sewing machine is now at
trading considerable attention, and as the question
Committee.
prO'iiesa, retarding, necessarily, the growth and pros is often asked, “which is the best machine for family
perity ofthe bocth, aud it was natural to desire, as
it was necessary to provide, a remedy for it. This
desire and necessity suggested the idea of assembling
once in every year, the people of the South, by de
puties, in a Convention, for the purpose of gathering
information, from the must reliable witnesses, as to
the causes of the evil, with the hope of obtaining
from the wisest and most devoted sonsof the South,
the suggestion of apian or system of measures which
should correct it.
We regret to say that, thus far, our hopes have
not been realized, while the predictions ot onr op
ponents have been to some extent verified, although
much good lias been accomplished. Onr disappoint
ment lias not been, however, the faultentirely of the
Convention; for although we have been too much
divided among onrselves as to the remedies proper
to be adopted, and thereby have impaired our effi
ciency, still much good has been done, <r.d much
more would have been accomplished, if we could
have carried our suggestions into execution, without
dep endence upon the will of Congress and the State
Legislatures. The chief benefit, therefore, which
has resulted from the sessions of the Convention,
has been the increased knowledge of, and sympathy
for each other, with a better understanding of our
wants, resulting from these annual assemblies.—
Sot.them men have been made more extensively ac-
qai inted with eaeh other, and through that acquain
tance have learn&d the cheering and delightful fact,
that however we may differ about men, about party
politics, or particular remedies among ourselves,
there is in the 8outli but oue heart, one mind and one
uill fur ourtraducers and assailauts, and that when
the time for a blow at them shall arrive, if unhappi'
ly it ever shall, all the energy, patriotism aud cour
age of a united nation will be felt in that blow, by
thi se who shall unhappily provoke it—that, howev
use f” the experience of an uninterested witne/s may
be of value. Last summer I spent two weeks in New
York in using the various sewing machines adver
tized, with a view of determining which w as the best
I fonnd there were only three worthy of much con-
Bideiation,—these were Wheeler 4 Wilson’s, Grover
4 Baker, and Singer’s. The stitch made by all thesei
is, in the main, the same.—It is the double locked
stitch,having one thread above and anotberbelowtlie
cloth. This stitch cannot be raveled. Singer’s is the
best for heavy work, leather. 4c., but is not to good
for fine fabrics; and the noise it makes iu operating
is objectionable. Grover 4 Baker’s is good, though it
leaves a small ridge of thread under the cloth, which
is liable to wear off. The threading of the lower
needle is rather difficult. Wheeler 4 Wilson’s ma
chine is simple in construction and operation, can be
easily learned without a teacher, and is not liable to
get ont of Older. It works equally well on the finest
cambric and the heaviest lulled cloth, and makes lit
tle noise in operation. It makes a stitch so perfect
that on thick cloth it is difficult to tell which is the
‘right side.’ The day after I purchased one, and while
showing my wife how to nse it, I made a pair of pan
taloons for my son in just thirty minutes. I made
the entire garment except sewing on buttons and
making button holes. To show the popularity of
these machines, I may state that when in New York
I learned that Wheeler 4 Wilson had 675 hands in
tbeir employ, and the machines were sold as fast as
made In doing the sewing of a family of five or six
er tve may differ ainoug ourselves as to the means of I persons the cost ofthe machine may be saved every
attack, or the mode of defence, there is no difference
of opinion as to the great conclusion that the South
mi st bo defended, and all her rights protected—cost
vri at it may. This were cause and compensation
tn jugh for any trouble and expense in holding our
assemblies. Bat rapidly occurring events furnish
adJitioual and conclusive incentives to the continu-
auaeuftlio work which we have commenced—the
c;o nmercial independence of the South—by bring-
in;; more closely and distinctly to our viewthe prob
ability that we shall at no distant day be compelled
Id assert our political independence, which canuct
ho sustained without commercial independence—
without the means of regolattug and controlling our
'em n commerce; for, without that power, no nation
ca a be free. If the South is wise, then, aud would
tie provident, she will lose uo time, in providing the
beit means, and all the means within her power, to
ret tore her own commerce to her own ports ami
pe>ple. For, whether she is to be permitted to re
in, iu in the Union—enjoying in honorable peace all
her constitutional rights—or is to be compelled, by
continued and progressive assaults upon her rigiiis,
her interests, and her feelings—the most unprece
dented and flagitious which cupidity and ambition
ever prompted—to assert her right to withdraw from
an association which no longer recognizes the orig
iual compact as the role of its government, or longer
to field submission to an oppressive and iniquitous
year, (the cost of all three ofthe machines named, is
about the same.) I have heard many persons say
that they “would not part with their machine for a
thousand dollars if they could not purchase another.’’
I have not the slightest interest in the invention
and have only written the above to give information
to those who desire it. I notice by the advertise
ment that J. B. 4 IV. A. Ross, are tho agents for this

$80,000 Worth of Hooks Destroyed.
About one o'clock this morning, fire was discover
ed issuing from the second story of a twostory double
dwelling house situated near the printing establish
ment of H. O. Houghton 4 Co., at Riverside, Cam-
bridgeport, owned by Messrs. Lettle, Brown 4 Co.,
and occupied by them as a ware-house for the stor-
age of printed sheet stock, books, and stereotype
plates. The building contained property to the val
ue of about fiioo.coo, and of such character that the
damage by salt water and smoke was veiy great—
much greater than by the fire itself. 1 he loss is es
timated at from 670,000 to 690,000. Most ofthe sheets
destroyed were those of law books. The property

nut of absolute necessity, that she should seriously
anil earnestly address herself to the restoration of
her foreign commerce, and to the encouragement
within her limits, by her owu means, of the manu
facture of those articles which are necessary to her
comfort.
Vhe candid lover of the union ofthe States must
be satisfied, as it seems to the undersigned, that if
not already abroga. ed in spirit, by the deliberate vin-
int.ons of the compact, to the injury, and fur the in
jury ofthe South, by many ofthe Northern and Eas
tern States, there is uot only little ground to hope
forthe preservation of it, upon the basis and under
the gaara.itees of the Constitution of 1767, but there
is the mostimmineut dutnter of its entire destrnciion
belore many years shall have rolled by. For a num
ber of years, not only the most offensive denuncia
tions have been poured out upon the South, but the
most wauton aggressions upon her Constitutional
rights, have been committed—commencing with
that most absurd and uufounded claim, of a right to
convert the Halls of tbe National Council into an
arena upon which to discuss the tenure by which
we hold our slaves, under the pretence ofpetitioning
for a redress of grievances.
Not only has our right to reclaim our slaves (when
they escape into a Northern State) been denied, but
the law passed by Congress for our protection, has
been resisted by people who claim still to be in tbe
Union. And receutly the State of Massachusetts has
perpetrated an act such as was never committed be
fore by any Constitutional Government—to wit; tbe
removal of a Judge (Luring) without impeachment
for any crime, simply because he has honestly and
faithfully enforced that law.
If the Southern States were to pass laws, prohibit
ing any citizen of Massachusetts from recovering
any debt or other property within their limits; or
without auch law should remove from office every
nai,3tL
Rnllaanistu at the Federal Capital.
Washington is becoming even more famous
than the great commercial metropolis, for its
deeds of violence and murder. To such an
exteut Jias this deplorable condition of affairs
progressed, that Congress has become alarmed
for the safety of its own members, and been
forced to devise the means of protection. A
correspondent of the Philadelphia Bulletin thus
refers to the matter, and the differences of
opinion in regard to the remedy:
Both Houses of Congress, to-day, have
been engaged in discussing Senator Brown’s
bill, to provide an efficient force to restore
quiet to our city. One opinion only hns been
expressed by men of all parties. All agree
that the city is the prey of assassins, highway-
robbers and incendiaries. Some expressed an
opinion that the federal capital is, at this mo
ment, the worst governed city in the world.
Others, more patriotic, say it is only the worst
in the Union. Senator Douglas hinted that
the citizens would organize a vigilance com
mittee and hang the rogues, if something were
not immediately done. Iverson (Georgia) said
the remedy was to make Washington a milita
ry station, and hunt the ruffians down with
This suggestion brought to his feet
Weed’s Patent Sewing Machine.
We have been often asked which is the best Sew
ing .Machine in use, and to satisfy ourselves, have
spent some time in examining them all* and now
give our opinion to our readers for their benefit.
We purchased one of the above named Machines,
and have tried it on every kind of work required in
a family, and it gives the best satisfaction; doing its
work very rapidly, neatly and stronger than the usu
al hand work. It is much harder to rip work done
on this Machine than that done in the ordinary way.
It is neat and tasty, being very nicely finished, and
to all appearance, simple, beyond the possibility of
getting out of repair, by ordinary use. It is very
strong and durable, and we are well assured one of
them will not wear out in years of constant use.—It
has already saved tailor's and dressmaker’s bills
enough in our family to pay its cost, aud we think it
a very profitable investment, to say nothing of its
convenience and the hours of needle work it saves a
mother. We must emphatically pronounce this
the best Sewing Machine in use, and the greatest
labor-saving invention of the day.

not complain, but the Union, with Massachusetts,

tbe Southern States chose so to regard it ? But this
is not all, though this is enough to expose tbe danger;
and tbe true question is, shall the South wait until
the danger overtakes her, unprepared then to meet
it fully, and ward off its evils. Again :
You are painfully sensible of tho protracted and
excited struggle which has, for aeveral ye ira, been
in progress in relation to tbe settlement and govern
ment of tbe territory of Kansas. Finally, the strug
gle seemed to havo been terminated, by the adoption
of a Constitution for the territory, to constitute it a good many other gentlemen were severe on

manner good to hear and denounced the day
when Janissaries should rule the capital and the
President be furnished with a Pretorian guard.
Hale (N. II.) thought the hour had about come
for removing the seat of government to some
civilized part of tbe country—Concord, for in
stance. Crittenden (Ky) feared this auxiliary
guard was too like the spirit of Banquo—too
suggestive of the corps of 25 guides which
swelled into the 50,000 Imperial Guard. A
details of that controversy we do not propose to deal.
We shall speak only of results. When that Const!
tutition was adopted, it was transmitted to tbe Presi
dent, and, with a noble patriotism, coming as he does
from tbe North, and with a faithful adherence to the
constitutional opinions of the States Rights party, he
submitted it to Congress, with the recommendation,
that it should bo received by it, and the State of Kan
sas left to correct tho errors, if any were committed,
or redress the wrongs, if any were perpetrated, ofthe
territory of Kansas; and thus remoye lho agitation
of slavery f.-om Congress, to whom it in no wise be
longs, to deal with the question tf slavery in any
form, aud who can meddle with it only for mischie
vous purposes, and in violation of its constitutional
duty.
The consequence of this act has been the re-open-
ing not only of all the sluices of abuse and detrac
tiou of the South, from more than one quarter, and
oblivious as to the nature of that much-abused
corps. A similar debate occupied the House.
