Caleb Cushing was made Chairman or that Committeo by acclamation. The report of tlio Committee on Cre dentials was adopted, mid Mr. Avery, of North Carolina, reiHuted the Plat form and Resolutions, (they are precise ly the same res tlio majority report at tlio Charleston Convention;) which wero adopted. _ Great enthusiasm was heio manifested.

It transpires that tho money was re covered lust August, by tho qiu of Allen Pinkerton’s detectivo agency, of Chica go; and wliat is more surprising, tho culprit did not know that the company hud possession of tho money; or that it was not still in tlio hands of his confed erate, until confronted in tlio Cqurt with the detcotivc and tlio stolon irioncy.— The hlstoiy of this cqso discloses one of the boldest robberies,” ftnd ono of tho most rcmnrknhh' ruses of detection In tho record of crimes in this. country.— The facts implicate tho wife of Maro- nby.nml other parties, who had buried the money, in an obscure place near Philadelphia.

Tale of ax Elbpiia.vt.—Tell my grand children, said the late Right Rev. Dan iel Wilson, writing homo from India, that an elephant hore lmd n disease in his eyes. For throo day a ho had boon completely blind. His owner an engi neer officer, asked my dear Dr. Wobbif ho could do anything to relievo tho poor animal. Tho doctoi said ho woulil try nitrate of silver, which was a rornody commonly applied to similar diseases in tho human oyc. Tho lingo animal was ordered to lio down, and at first, on tho application of tho remedy, raised a most extraordinary roar at tho acuto pain which it occasioned. The effect, how ever, was wonderful. Tho eye was, in n manner, restored, and tho animal could partially see. Tho next duv, when ho was brought, and heard tho doctor's voico, ho laid down of himself, placed his enormous head on ono side, curled up his trunk, drew in his breath just liko a man about toenduro an operation, gave a sigh of relief when it was over, and then, by trunk and gestures, evi dently wished to express his gratitude.
