From the Alabsma Journal of April 19. The North and: the South.

A pamphlet. written over the signature or One of Tite People." entitled the North and the Soith, the Question slated and considered," has been published at Columbia, (S. and as a copy has been fbrVarded to us. we presume it has been or is being circulated extensively in all lhp Southern States. Wejdesire briefly to call attention to it.

It commences as follows 44 There is now a great controversy existing between the North and the South. Can this controversy be settled After going into a consicration of Ihe grounds' of the difficulty, the w-riter, on the 5th page, comes to this Ii results, thenl'from the very nature of this controversy, that itannot be settled. And after considering the difficulties in ihe way of a settlement, the authorsays, on page 6th, 1 take it for granted. then that a collision between the North and the Sooth is inevitable." He intimates that it majr not be immediate, but it must come sooner: or later. He then says I If we take it for? granted that a collision is inevitable, what is to be done And thai is my ohject in writing.

I desire, as one of ihe people, to give my opinion let it pass for what it is worth." Under this head the author says My idea is, first, to perfect the union.of the South, now so happily in progress. Secondly, to dissolve the Union immediately form a Southern Confederacy and take possession, by force of hrm, of all the Territories suitable for slavery, ichich would include all south of the parallel of latitude oj Missouri. Let this territory, then, be settled up by slate-holders. Let the Southern States give a tract of land and one slave to every poqr family who will settle there." We have endeavored (says the Journal) to give in the above extracts enough to show the author's views in full, whichsujn up as fol lows: il First, ili at there: is a controversy between the North and the South. i Secondly, that ihe controversy cannot be i Thirdly, that a collision is ineVflable.

Fourthly, thai an immediate dissbliition of ihe Union, a Southern Confederacy, and a taking possession of certain territories by force of arms, are the remedy. And fifthly, that this should be the object and action of the proposed Nashville Convention. Were this ordinary communication to a newspaper, at stopping and that, it were enough to be deprecated, we should not have felt called upon to notice it but when these views are gravely embodied in pamphlet form, and issued from so distant ahd prominent a point, scattered over the country at large, embracing such startling proposition as are there madewe feel called upon to make a few observations upon therri. First, there is a controversy between the North and the South. The North has-been and is wrong has been, and is the aggressor.

The South should maintain her position, and will do it. It is this that has led us lo favor, countenance and support, wilh whatever abili-ly we have, such measures as would lead to I r. i our ueo-nce anu protection, aucn measures we shall now and ever stan I ready lo advocate and press, let the consequences be what they may. Secondly. We beliex-e the question can be settled.

Nine tenths of the people of the South and of the Union believe it can. Every indication at Washington promises its peaceful and satisfactory adjustment. The weighl of the Administration, and ofiihe conserviiive mind of both great parties in Congress, will be ex. erted for the speedy amicable, and honorable settlement of all the causes of difficulty. We not only believe the controversy can be settled, but We shall labor with all becoming zeal to produce so desirable a result.

I Third, If the questions that lie ait the hot. lorn of the controversy are settled, we be-lieve they will be, "ra collision is not inevitable," nor will it take place. Letter's flom Wash, ington, the collateral votes on Pooje's move, ment in ihe Senate, with other demonstrations at tVashsngtoh and ihe North, indicate clearly thai thesei questions will be settled to the South and the country. Where, then, in thai case, can come the collision Fourth. The writer should wait for the wagon.

Not one solitary Southern State, embrac-ing Virginia, i Mississippi, Georgia! Ace, has by resolution or otherwise, avowed or intima ted its determination to take any steps leading to any suen results until, the happening of cer tain contingencies such as abolishing slave, ry in the District of Columbia, or excluding the South i from the Territories by the passage of the Wilmot proviso. one pretends that either or any of these contingencies liavfe hap. pened since Gen. Taylor came into power, or since the passage of the various resolutions by the different Yet this pamphlet pro-poses "to dissolve the Union immediately." whether such a contingency happens or not. Sqch uliraists iil find that instead oitryingto lead the Southern States by the nose before they biave declared their readiness to move, it will I quite as pleasant and agreeable, and fully as to keep pace quietly with them in their determination to delend the right and not submit lo he wrong at least, that isthe view we lake of the matter, and shall be goverened Andffth.

This should not be the object of the Nashville Convention. We should not ad- yocate it, or sustain it, or say one word in fa. tor of ill, il it wvre. Tk- i i j- i. o.L.

Farris, Esq:" Mr. STANLY THE METHODISTS We are sorry to see that the Hornets rsest, a Whig paper of North Carolina, is denouncing the Hon. Edward Stanly, for remarks should have made in re- ply to Mr Hilliard of Alabama. Mr. H.

is a Mrthodist preacher of hiiih standing and the Hornets rsest represents Mr. Stan ly, as calling hisbrelhren in the Ministry "hundred dollar fellows" in an "opprobri ous and '-deriding sense." The man of the Hornets Nest must be maliciously disposed towards Mr. Stanly, or he would not seek by. misrepresenting facts, to ex cite the Methodists of the old North State against him. Certainly the Editor of that' paper is not the-guardian of the Methodist Church by Divine appointment.

The South will take care of hpr own true in-tercsts but she will not make the Nashville Convention the occasion for carrying out the second proposition of this pamphlet, nor any thing like it. We believe the question that agitate the coxintry will be settled, and that hence great necessity which origrvally called for Convention will have passed hefore its as-sernbling, or the difficulty be in a fair way of adjustment. Believing ibis, we regrel, more we can express, -certain new ultra views which we have recently seen expressed, and which the people will not respond, among which we may class the pamphlet here spoken From the. Mobile Advertiser. The Effect.

Many timid gentlemen have been frightened into a support of the Nashville Convention by the representation of its originators that a failure would induce the North to persist stronger than ever in its aggressions up. the South. No correct judge of human nature, who knows anything of the springs of human action, would come to that conclusion still, many thoughtless individuals have been influenced by the representations referred The following paragraph from the New York Express, after referring to ihe defeat of convention scheme in Georgia, North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, dec, shows that effecl is the very opposite to that predicted (be convention ullraists Moreover, the fact that ihe masses of 'the Southern people have frowned down this grand scheme of disunion, should encourage on the of us at the North renewed sentiments of kindness, conciliation and forbearance. Lei in nothing be wanting in a proper recipro. cation of those manifestations of patriotism and love for the Union the Southern people are giving us, as a pledge of their deternina-tion lo abide by the Union to the last.

We applaud them for it." You cannot drive men into measures threats will not avail. Firmness and courtesy defence of the right will avail, while threats incite defiance. The above paragraph shows in what liht the Southern Convention viewed in the North, and that the fact of its having Uen condemned by the people will es-ert favorable and kindly influence on public sentiment in the North. Kill off the Southern Convention, hang a few Northern Abolitionists, put a few Southern mad caps in a straight jacket, and all will be-well. From the Richmond Times.

The Nashville Convention. Since the of February last, it has been demon strated beyond dispute that neither Delaware. Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, nor Louisiana will be represented with any adequate sanction of popular authority at Nashville. It is impossible, therefore, that there can be a-" union of the whole South" in the proposed consultation, such was contemplated by our Legislature, such as will give to the acts of the Convention solemnity or consequence. In view of this now undeniable fact, those advocates of Southern rights who speak of the failure of the Convention as equivalent to a surrender of the Southern position, seem to us to commit a most unfortunate, and it may be a fatal error.

They are making for the South an issue in which it is obliged to show apparent weak tiess. They rest our cause on a reed al ready broken. In our poor judgment, it is the. part of true wisdom to decline the mere accessory measure, about which we cannot now attain unanimity of senti ment, and to stand in perfect unitedness upon our principal ground of resistance the first act of aggression. From the Hillsborough Recorder.

The Nashville Convention. The proposition which originated in the Wilmington district for holding a State Convention for the purpose of appointing four delegates, with alternates, to represent the State of North Carolina in the proposed Nashville Convention, seemsho have resulted in a complete failure. The 15th day of this month was appointed for the meeting at Raleigh but it appears that no response was. made by the people. We learn from the Raleigh pa pers that some five or six delegates, from some of the lower counties, only were in attendance and, rinding no one present to meet them, they left of course without attempting to accomplish any thing.

Conventions for the appointment of dis trict delegates have been held in two only of the nine Congressional districts in this State thus far and there appears to be little prospect of any further appointments. It very clearly appears that the people of this State are decidedly opposed to the Nashville Convention. They have constitutional representatives in the Congress the United States, and they have good hjpe that the important and agitating matters which have so lon disturbed ih tranquility of the States will soon be by i 1 thpm C4 nrllllctoH sac tn nra hof nmi the Union. Until this hope shall prove to; be futile, they will not withdraw their confidence to place it upon a revolutionary! assembly powerless only for evil. We thjnk there is evidence that this is the prevailing sentiment throughout all the Southern States.
