A meeting was to be held at Richmond, Va. on the 24th inst. to take into consideration the incendiary movements at the North on the subject of slavery. The Richmond Whig says: "It is hoped the whole People will attend, in order that it may be seen that however divided on other subjects, the Southern People are and will be unanimous on this, which involves every man's safety. Let the People beware of those few in number, but deep in design, who go about crying Peace! Peace! when there is no peace, and who would have them to wait until the fetters are forged and fitted to the limb. It is time to present a front, and let the Fanatics see that their designs are only to be accomplished by marching over the prostrate bodies of the Southern People."
