The National Gazette is quite enthusiastic
over the activity which now prevails in ship
building generally. It says that in the month
of April 116 vessels of all classes were regis
tered; in May 180; in June 157, and in July,
up to the 2Cth day thereof, 170. It is notice
able too that wooden ships are coming in favor
again. One reason of this is the cost of con
structing iron ships in Great Britain, and an
other is the partiality of our builders for the
old style. Near Boston, among other vessels
now building is one of 2,000 tons, one of 1,500
tons, one of 1,400 tons, one of 1,000, and one
each of 700 and 500. At Portsmouth, N. H.,
a 1,200 ton ship is ready for the water. In
Maine there is great activity in the yards. The
rates of ireight are high. Ships are quickly
chartered, and the prospect of a remunerative
business is good.

The State Centrai Committee met early, and will
probably be in session all night, hearing and deciding
upon claims of contesting delegations. Their report
will be presented to the convention in the morning.
The canvass joat closing has been the most exciting
that ha* ever occurred in Maa*acha*etts.
General Butler arrived this afternoon and .* top
ping at the Bay Stale Hones.
The butler faction engaged Mechanics' Hall, the
largest in the city, lor the evening but, contrary to
general t xpectationa, no meeting was held and the
hall was not opened.
The Convention will organize by the choice of ex-
Governor Bollock Chairman, John D. B. Cogswell
Chairman of the Committee on Credentials, and ex-
Governor Ciafiin Chairman of Committee on Resolu
tion*. The names of George Hoar and Charles Hale
will be on the committee.
All the afternoon was consumed in diaenming the
preamble and resolution* offered by General Butler*
directing that a delegate named Greene be debarred
from voting in the convention, a* he had dedarod his
intention not to vote for Butler if nominated. The
question was debated with a good deal of spirit by
Hoar and W. W. Rice In opposition, and Butler and
others in favor. Butler made a point of hie fealty to
party, and declared be would not bolt if defeated.
An incident of the debate was a speech by Rev.
James Freeman Clarke, an anu-But!er delegate of
West Boxbery, who took strong ground in favor of the
right of every delegate to vote as he choosea at the
election regardless of the action of the Convention.
He opposed the idea that the action of the Convention
was binding, and declared that a bolt was always in
order.
Geo. F. Hoar having moved that the resolution be
referred to the Committee on Credentials, his motion
as adopted by £84 to 539. The total of this vote be
ing more than the total number of delegates, it was
voted 58G to 406. Pending the motion by Butler to
verify the former vote by which the resolution was
referred, the Convention took a recess until half-past
At the opening of the evening session Butler took
the floor and withdrew his motion to verify the reaul
of the last vote by counties. He said he was satisfied
that a majority of the delegates were in favor of the
re-nomination of Gov. Waehburne, and he did not
care to delay the business of the Convention by a re
sort to parliamentary tactics. He declared mew his
fealty to tho party, and said he did not want to do
anything to cause dissatisfaction in its rank*. He
consequently withdrew his name, and sold he saw no
cause to run independently.
Washburne was then re-nominated by acclamation.

Throughout Germany, wherever females

Total, $40,000. Mr. Getz, the acenic artist of the thea
tre, loses about $3,000; and many of tbe companies
and other employees loose from $100 to $1,000. Mrs.
Linton, who had charge of the wardrobes, and with
her daughter Nellie, aged 18, and her little son aged
12 years, occupied a room in the building, and were
asleep when the fire was discovered, had a narrow es
cape, the two children being badly burned abont the
face. The theatre was opened four weeks ago for
the season and every night since has been densely
•wded. For two weeks the spectacular play. Ice,
drew ths largest houses ever congregated within its
walls. Last night the play, After Dark, was performed
large audience.
With the exception of Walnut street Thtat r, of

Cotton Mill Burned.
Baltimore, S*-pt. It), 1873.
A aeveL-Uory stone cotton mill at Withersvtlle has
been burned. Loss $50,000.
At half-past two o’clock this morning an alarm of
fire was sounded, and in a few moments s volume of
flames burst forth from the Holliday Street Theater,
enveloping the building in s mass of fire. The flume*
poured out simultaneously from the roof ami
upper windows; and before the steamers got to
it was evident that old Holliday was
doomed to destruction. In leas than ten minutes
after the alarm was sounded the central part of
the city was lit up as if by a great calcium lttUt, up
Lexington to Charles, on Monument street, ou Balti
more street from Frederick to Charles and Calvert, as
far north as ths Northern Central Depot, the reflec
tion was so Intense as to crests the impression that a
general conflagration had begun. A deluge of flaming
cinders rolled up from the burning mass, and
borne by s gentle breeze from the north
east in the very heart of the city, s distance of
five or aix blocks over the roofs
Sun aod American and
the Western Union Telegraph offices and the ad
jacent buildings. The great blaring cinders rained
down a sheet of fire. Many of the awnings of the
stotes on Bath aud fAmtk streets caught on fire from
the fiery shower of embers, and at 3 o’clock these
streets were brilliantly illuminated by the burning
canvass, adding to the general consternation. In the
mean time the steamers began to work with an abun
dance of water, and the firemen with a good will
to quench the flames. The fire had already commu
nicated to the roof of tbe St. Nicholas Hotel, adj >in.
ing the theatre in the north, and to the large brick
building adjoining to tbe south, and also to the factory
of Grey, Walpart k Co., in tbe rear of the theatre
The entire fire department was vigorously st work,but
all their efforts to save the theatre were unavailsing.
Shortly after three o'clock the room
and only four bare walls were
standing. The theatre and some adjoiniDg property
was purchased three years ago by John T. Ford,
for one hundred thousand dollars. The dama?o by
the fire will reach about seventy-five thousand dol ars,
on whldi there is an insurance of $40,000, principal
ly in the city companies. 1 he St. Nicholas hotel ad
joined the theatre on the north, aod a large lour
story building belonging to W. B. W. Earle. The pro
prietor was patronized almost exclusively by the
tors and actresses performing at the Holliday and the
Opera House, about fifty of whom were in the build
ing at tbe time of the fire. The rear portion of the
four story brick building was ent.rely burned out
sad all the lower floors deluged with water. Many of
the guests were forced to escape with nothiog on but
their night clothes. Soma of the actresses lo*t their
wardrobes, watches, money, Ac; hut s majority of
them succeeded in saving their effects which, with
the furniture of the hotel that was rescued from the
flames, was piled up in the streets. Mr. Earl esti
mates his loss st about $20,000, and gives his insur
ance as follows: The Pennsylvania, of Philadelphia,
$2,500; Franklin, or Philadelphia, $2,500; Westchest
of New York, $2,600; German, of Baltimore, $2,500
total. $10,000. The building was owned by
Wm. J. Albert, Baltimore City. The college adjoin
ing on the South had its roof and upper floor burned
and the whole building was damaged with water. The
first floor was occupied by the Baltimore School Com
missioners, and ths second and third floors by the
Baltimore city College. The damage to the books by
water is estimated at $3,000. The furniture
aod carpets wore also damaged. Lo** on books, fur
nltnre, etc., amount to five thousinl dollars. The

Tbe Secretary of the Navy received the following
to-day:
United States Steamer Juniata,
St. Johns, N. F.. Sept., 10. 1873.
Hon. Geo. M. Robinson, Secretary of the Navy,
Washngtou, D. C.—The Juniata arrived today; met
the Tigress at Upbernavik, aod coaled her.
She sailed August 11th for Littleton Island. Ths
Tigreas met the Juniata, a steamer bound for SL
Delong, off Terauiah, who had been to Cape York.
At Disco she met the Tigress again and coaled her.
August 25th Commander Ewen reports that the camp
of the Polaris was found off Littleton Island, latitude
78 deg., 23 min. north, longitude 73 deg. 46 min. west.
The crew of the Polaris were all well, and had gone
south about two months before in two whale
boats made from the ship. The Polaris sunk one
mouth after. Kept careful lookout going north aud
coming south—no signs. Stopped at all aettlements;
no news. Tbe crew of the Polaris were probably on
board of the whaler from Now York. The Tigress
left Disco August 25, for Lhbrador coast to continue
the search as long as the coal and season permits.
D. L. Brain, Command s
Tbe above diapatebwas received from Commander
Braiue, commanding the Juniata. Littleton Island re
ferred lo is about 60 miles north of Northumberland
Island, where the party rescued from the Polaris sup
posed they had left her. It is a little south of tbe life
boat depot of Dr. Kane in 1853. Tbe prob
ability is that the 1 igress party were
mistaken as to tbe locality of
their separation from the Polaris, aud that it was
really Littleton Island, instead of Northumberland.
It is hardly possible that after tbe separation tbe Po
laris, in her disabled condition, succeeded in aDy way
in reaching a point sixty miles farther North. It is
understood that orders were sent by telegraph to
commander Braine to emtinne tho search for the
crew of the Polaris.

fenbluten.was six years younger than the pres
ent oentury, between him and which there
was not a single link of sympathy; for he be
longed to tho class of German princes, now
fortunately extinct, who copied tbe despotism
of Louis Quatorze and tbe vices ot his effemin
ate brother, the Due d’Orleans. The Duke of
Brunswick was the last wait which tbe ebbing
lido of French fashion left on the soil of Ger
many. His feverish and vagabond existence
began when Goethe and Schiller were io the
zenith of their literary career, and the reac
tion across the Rhine against Versailles, and
all its works had well set in. This reaction
was greatly aided by the victories of the
French armies under the generals of the re-
S ublic and the first Napoleon. The battle of
eua took place when the duke, w ho died on
Monday at Geneva, was two years old. On
the day following the ooe on which the news
of it reached Brunswick he was hastily trans
ported to Sweden, where, at the age of four,
he lost his^mother. From her hands he passed
into the tutelage of a French emigre —a mar
quis, who wqs brought up at the feet of the
Marshal de Richelieu. The young prince’s
father, the organizer ot the Deaths
Head Brunswick Hussars, was too
much absorbed in military schemes to
counteract the teachings of the exiled no
bleman. Quatre Bros, at which tbe founder
of the Black Regiment fell, placed Charles
Frederick at the head of the duchy. The
youthful heir became, pending his minority,
a ward of “the best wigged prince iu Chris
tendom,” who was his uncle-in-law and first
cousin. Accompanied by the French mar
quia, his Serene Highness went to London,
when the allied sovereigns were there, to
study life at the Court of the Regent, and
finish his education. He was thrown iuto a
congenial soil. The example of the Prince of
Tailors was not throwu away upon him. His
Serene Highness' escapades, and his green
room adventures aod wild doings iu a lodg
ing ho had in tbe New-road, furnished a cu
rious chapter in a cause celebre which was
heard in Paris in 1870. In 18*23 Charles
Frederick, becoming the absolute master of
several hundred thousand Germans, returned
to live in his State. But, after Carlton-
house and tbe Chinese gew-gaw palace of
Brighton he found the ancestral Graue Hot a
very dull place. With Versailles tastes im
proved on by Beau Brummel, it may be well
conoeived that he had but little sympathy
with the earnest fellow-townsmen of Schiller,
Lessing, ond Spohr. The. antique streets,
with their quaint houses, offended his sight.
He shut himself up in his palace with theat
rical people imported from abroad, English
tailors, French hairdressers, and quacks and
charlatans who professed to have discovered
the fountain of rejuvenescence. The library
of Wolvenbuttel, with its rare missals, its
relics of Luther, its Louis Cranachs and
Albert Durers, was visited but once by the
sovereign duke, who was accompanied by an
auctioneer. He was curious to know what
its market value was, for he regarded it as a
spendthrift nobleman does the tree3
planted by his ancestors. It was a
resource for raising the wind on
rainy days. The eccentric ways of the
Duke end his aibitrnry mode of governing
drew down a remonstrance from the Diet But
he turned a deaf ear to his fellow sovereigns,
and went on as his whims and financial needs
prompted People will long put up with ty
rants of grave exterior ; But their patience
is soon at an end when the prince who tram
ples ou them appears in the streets in the
•qwipege-of xrtiiens rider seeking to'advertise
his hippodrome. The quiet Brunswickers at
length rose in revolt against their painted
prince, deposed and exiled him. When he
was thus bereft of his duchy he went to Lon
don; but, finding the generation of Brummel
passed away, he did not settle there. He
eventually elected to domicile in Paris, and
bought the house, near the Folie Beanfon,
in which Lola Montez lived when Mrs. Heald.
His diamonds, his wigs, his extraordinary
equipages, his avarice (for as years rolled
on be grew miserly to excess), and his precau
tions against burglars, were for a while
the town talk. His peruke was changed once
month. In the course of the year the duke
went through all the shades between jet black
and flaxen. The complexion was made to
suit the hair, which, considering that thero
a thick coat of enamel laid on the duke's
face, was not a work of difficulty. The
diamonds used to be exhibited in the Grand
Opera or the Palais Royale Theatre. Some
of them were stolen four years ago by an
English valet skilled in the ait of making
beautiful for ever.” His Serene Highness’s
favorite carriage was a yellow one, the color
of a butter cup. He h »d a fancy for cream-
colored and pie-bald horses, and fot pages in
eccentric ;liveries. Tne siege drove Charles
Frederick out of Paris, and the Commune
prevented him reluming to his rose-pink
palace. He feared another insurrection, and had
an uncomfortable notion that the lusurgents
might seize him as a hostage. The last two
years of his life were spent at Geneva, where,
it would appear, he got into the hands of an
American magnetizer.

Reports frim the plantations agree that cotton is
being rapidly picked out. All hands are busy se
curing the first crop. It is now though: that
a full average crop will be produced, and if no
unnatural combinations are formed to corner it.
In New York and Liverpool, and force tbe price below
that it would legitimately bring, the year will
upon the whole be a satisfactory one. And it is a
gratifying fact to know that at least two-third* enough
corn and long forage has been haire«ttd to carry
them through the coming >ear.

"Ooe of the mysteries of Shapespeare'. life
(says the Locdon Athcmcum of August 23)
is at length solved. Some lime ago we men
tioned that Ur. J. D. Halliwrell had had the
good fortune to discover a remarkable and
uniqae series of documents representing the
two theatres with which the poet was con
nected. They included eveu lists of the origi
nal proprietors and sharers. Shakespeare’s
name does not occur in those lists. Mr. Ilalh-
well has now furnished ns with the texts of
those passages in which tbe great dramatist
is expressly mentioned, notices far more in
teresting than anything of the kind yet
brought to light The sons of James Bur
bage are speaking in an affidavit. They
tell us that, after relinquishing their the
atrical speculations in Shoreditch, they
built the Globe with sums of
money taken up at interest which
lay heavy on us many yeeres, and to our
selves weo joyned those deserving men,
Sbakspere, Huntings, Condnll and others,
portuf rs in the proffites of that they call tbe
houBe. ’ As to tho BUckfriars they soy, ‘our
father purchased it at extreme rates, and
made it iuto a play house with great charge
and troble, which after was leased out to one
Evans that first sett np the boyes commonly
called the Qasenes Majesties Children of the
Chappell. In procease of time, the boyes
growing up to bee men, it was considered
that bouse would be as fitt for oursolves, aud
soe purchased tho lease remaining from
Evans with our money, and placed men

Death of m Child.
A little child of Mr. Freeman Napier, of Hayneville,
Houston county, died at the residence of his brother-
in-law, Dr. William Holt, of Vinevllle, yesterday, and
this morning the corpse left upon the Southwestern
train for its former home and for burial
The Old Dodge.
It is already suggested that Mrs. Hunllton, the mur
deress of her child, wae insane at the time she com
mitted the foul deed. Good, forbearing, patient, for
giving human nature would think ao. Bet if we only
had that sort of human nature in gross, or in charge
of law at least, these crimes might greatly multiply.
Tho case, however, should not be prejudged, least of
all by ths public press.
The community here pity the poor, unfortunate
woman, and when your p*p*r reached Fort Valley
and the neighborhood of her former heme jeaterday
morning, the detail* produced a thrill of horror among
those wbo especially knew her in other aud better

he has probably severed two important arte
ries in his neck, and will probably die. The
ball has not yet been extracted,
protrusion in the back of the neck. Henser
looks as though he had been drunk a month.
He is a medium sized man, with black hair
and moustache. He was too drunk to make
any explanation of the affair, and talked only
io a rambling way.
A DYING WOMAN'S GRATITUDE.
Mrs. Henser is a pale, emaciated womai
with jet black hair and eyes. She was too
weak to talk, but when the Warden told h<
that her children were asleep in the m
room, she grasped his hand and with teai
expressed the thanks which she could nd
utter.
Dr. Griffith says the ball entered her
breast just below tbe nipple, and is still in an
side, bat she is so weak that it is act raft ti
irobeiorit. Sh. oaaftMpftM intnirai raiir ■
ne pains, and it is poaible she ia aofferiDg
from internal hemorrhage. The
that she can hardly live many honra.
Mark, Jr., the oldest child, told '
porter that his lather was shooting
near the table and ordered Ins mother
oat of the door. She said “Wait,” and he "ra
llied “No," and fired. The boy told Warden
Jrennan that his father asked him where ‘
pistol was when he entered the room, and
replied that it was in a box. Tbe father the.
went for it to do the fatal deed.
