Gov. Seymour, of New York, spoke in favor of all the New York delegation going for Buchan an. On the next ballot he was nominated almost unanimously. Mewn. Uuchannn nml llrcckcitridge. We use no mere formal words iu expressing our satisfaction at the nomination of these gen tlemen. With no personal preference for Ur. Buchan an over either of his noblo and true hearted competitors, Pierce aud Douglas, we are never theless convinced, that in the present feverish state of the public mind, his nomination was the best that could have beeu made. Assured, hy years of devotion to the Constitution, of his fidelity to the South, it should rather be a source of satisfaction than regret to us, that his high character, long services und approved patriot ism, make him the most formidable ot all tho opponents of Black Uepublicaniem, in the North. Fanaticism tuay swell, and rage around und dash against him—it caunot overwhelm him. We have strong hopes that he will calm aud couquer it. Nor are we ashamed to confess that we find additional satisfaction in the fact that lie la uu. questionably more acceptable to our Southern opponents than either of the other candidates for the nomination. We need not trace Mr. Bucbuuau's history Making his first appearance iu public lite as a volunteer to tight Ids country's battles in the war of Wl‘l, soon we hear of him in the lower house of Congress, then as Miuister to Russia* next, and for many years, as United States Sen- tor, still later as Secretary of State, and last as Minister to England. Nothing was left for his praiseworffiy ambition but the Presidency. With the nomination for the Vice Presiden cy, we are no leas pleased. LiUtle.if any, over thirty-live years of age, Mr. Breckenridge'h cu? reer has been short but eminently brilliant. Elected lo Congress in 1851, and re elected in 1853—from a Whig district,and that the district of Ashlaud—triumphing by the sheer force ot his character and the magic power of his elo c qnence.he voluntarily retired from Washington, after four years of public service. An ardent personal admirer though a firm polilitical oppo nent of Mr. Clay, during his first term of ser vice, Mr. B. was called upon to announce to the House of Representatives tho death of that great man. Of the many eulogies of the de ceased, pronounced on that .occasion in the two Houses of Congress, by the first men in both, that of Mr. Breckenridge confessedly carried off the palm for excellence. A few extracts from it will 1« acceptable to our readers: As a leader In a deliberative body Mr. Olay had uo equul iu America. In him, intellect, person, eloquence, and courage, united to form a character fit to command. He tired with bis own enthusi asm and controlled by Ills amazing will, Individuals und masses. No reverse could crush his spirit, nor defeat reduce him to despair. Equally orect and dauntless in prosperity and adversity . wbt«ii suc cessful, he moved to the accomplishment or his pur poses with severe resolution; wheu defeated. the rallied his broken band arouml biin, aud from liis oaglo eye shot along their ranks the contagion or his own courage. Destined for,a leader, ho every where asserted his destiny, lu his long und evcutlul lire he came iu contact with men or nil ranks nml pro fessions, but he never loll that lie was iu the pre. senco ofa man superior to himself, in the assem blies ot the people, at tho bar, in tlm Senate—every, where within the circle or his iwr.-tuial presence he assumed and inuintninod a position ol preeminence. The lire nr Mr. Clay, sir, is a striking example ol the abiding Tamo winch surely awaits the direct ami candid statesman. Tho entire absence ol oquivoca tion or disguise in nil his acts was his umslor-kcy to the populur heart; for while the people will forgive the errors of a hold and open uuture, lie sins past forgiveness who deliberately deceives them. Hence Mr. Clay, though often defeated in his measures of policy, ulwaysHocured the rospect of-his opponents without losing tho confidence or his friends. Ho nover paltered In a double sense. The country wus never lu doubt 03 to his opinions or his purposes. In nil the contests of his lime, hi3 position on great public questions wan us clear ns tho sun in a cloud- lew sky. Sir, standing by the grave of this great muu, und con.-hlerlng these tilings, how con temptible does uppeur the mere legerdemain of politics! what a reproach is his life on that false currcd the famous pamigo between himself find Mr. Cutting, of Now York city, from which,dis tinguished ns worn the talents of his opponent, it may lx) safely said tho Kentuckian did not come oil* arcomf bat. On tho rotura of Mr. Soule, Mr. Breckenridge was offered tho mission to Spain, whioh he how ever declined. With a nominee for President whose advanc ed age (60 years) makes it not Improbable that ho may not live through tho term for which he shall be elected, we deem it matter of Voicing, that, for the Vice Presidency, one has been selected, every way worthy of the highest post. Tlie Testimony In t lie Brooks und Stun ner Case* We subjoin the testimony of Messrs. Critteu- den, Winslow and Iverson,.before the Congres sional Committee. Mr. Crittenden's disappro bation has been much oommented ou, and we deem it proper that he should speak for himseir. The other two geutlemen appear to have beeu cool and collected witnesses of t’je conflict. The whole evidence is very lengthy and our apace does not permit our publishing it in The testimony of Mr.'„Edmundsou of Va., is interesting, inasmuch as it discloses the attempt which Mr. Brooks made to find Mr. Sum ner out side of the capitol.

Q. Was this at tho time of the assault? A. No; I think that Mr. Edmondson stepped down from the space on the other side of the door; after the conflict was over I think I saw Mr. Edmondson; I would uot be very positive, but I think it was about the time it was over; I saw Mr. Edmondson step down from the seats on the other side; l did not Bee Mr. Keitt approach at all? I found myself standing near him in tho aisle; I saw no interference in the fight; I did not observe upon tho part of any one auy effort toprevent an interference upon tho part of the officers of the Senate; half a minute, 1 suppose, would cover the whole conflict; during a por tion of that time I was passing from my seat to the scene of conflict; my object was to interfere to arrest the commission of violence; my im pression was, when I first s&w them, that both of the parties were engaged as combattants, but I may have been mistaken; the arms of both were in motion, and I supposed that both were combating; I was abont twenty feet from the B arries; I did not hear any words from Mr. rooks; I suppose it was within an hour after the adjournment of tho Senate; Mr. Brooks ad dressed no offensive observations to me in regard to the affair; I did express my disapprobation or such violence in tiie Senate chamber; it was not addressed to any one in particular, but was made iu the hearing of all present; Mr. Brooks was some little distance from Mr. Sumner when I met him, and had a piece of the stick in his baud, with which, I suppose, he had been com batting; I took hold of it. and he very gently yielded, and allowed me take it out of hunand; It was a common walking stick. EVIDENCE OF MR. WINSLOW. Hou. IV. Winslow, swornI was stamliug in the Senate Chamber with friends; Mr. Sum ner was in ray view from where I stood; my at tention was first directed to seeing Mr. Brooks address Mr. Sumner in what 1 supposed to be courteous language; I did not then know that be was a relative of Senator Butler; but I was surprised to see a South Carolinian address Mr. Sumher in courteous language; I heard Mr. Brooks say : “Mr. Stimner’ r and Mr. Snmner rely • “Mr. Brooks:” the remarks I did not understands; when Mr. Brooks struck Mr. Sum ner he was half rising from chair; he struck him some half dozen blows before Mr. Sumner rose up; Mr. Sumner was sitting next the par tition which separates the lobby from the bare; Mr. Brooks was before him, Sumner's desk between them; Mr. Sumner finally rone and moved about iu a circle towards tiie right hand, so that at the close of the contest tiie posi tion of the pcr .ies was directly reversed. Mr. Sumner appeared to be bewildered; I do not think he was stunned by the blow; but lie seem ed to be warding it off with his right hand, un til he had come around to tiie range of desks before him; when ho had got around, he fell between the'desks; I do not think he was knock ed down: I should think he was struck twenty licks; he continued striking until the stick w.is ontlrely broken; first two or three blows broke tho stick; Mr. Sumner said nothing but “Oh,” “Oh Lord,” or something like that; Mr. Brooks did not st rike him after he was knocked down ; Mr. Crittenden approached and said : “Don't strike him;” i'Don’t kill him,” or someth nj of that sort, and Brooks said : “I do not intern, to;” the time waa very short from the time BroolcB commenced addressing Sumner to the time he commenced tho assault; I thing there was time to have finished the remarks he is said to have made; I was struck with his man ner; I observed Mr. Brook some time previously sittihg in a seat in the Senate; there were then ten or twenty ladies on tiie floor; Mr. Sumner was upon his feet during nt least two thirds of the contest- EVIDENCE OF MR. IVERSON. Hon. A.

The town or Florence mentioned by the writer is on the east bank of that river aud luthe County of Stewart. We copy from the Columbus Tmta. A tetter in the -Clayton Alabama Banner, confirms the account given below t Glenn villi, Ala., June 54,1858. Mean. Editor$ :—Our community was thrown into a stato of great excitement yester day evening by the receipt of Intelligence of a most bloody assault made by a party of men residing in the neighborhood of Jeraigan on a number of citizens who were passing from Florence, Ga., to their homes in this conntv. The facto concerning this horrible outrage, as nearly as we have been able to ascertain them, are about these: For some years, Matthew Averett, are nas been keeping a ferry at Florence, on the Chat tahoochee nver, without a charter from the State of Georgia. In 1863, A. W. Hill, Esq., of Florence, Ga., applied for and obtained a Char ter from Georgia, for a ferry at that place, and opeued a road on his own land, on this side of the river, leading into the old Florence rood, and stopped the road leading fromAverett’s ferry on the Georgia side; whereupon Averett erected a toll gate across the Florence road on the Alabama side, and demanded and collected the same toll as he would have received at the ferry. The authority upon which Averett claims the right to do this is an order of the CommiaBio- nera’ Court of Barbour Co., Ala., granted to him in 1848, to erect a toil gate at the Florence road on the west side of the Chattahoochee river, and collect toll thereat, and lorbids any person to interfere with said gate within one half a mile on either side np and down the river. He bus erected under this order a gate several huudred yards back from the river, just at tiie point where Hill's road intersects the old road, Many persons liuve pnid toll and many have refused to do so, bnt have removed tiie obstruction uud passed. Tho matter has been agitated for Home time, aud the eitizeuHOU both Hides of the river have become very much ex cited, and have repeatedly torn down the gate.— On yesterday, several of Averett’s relatives aud ills overseer armed themselves with double- barrel guns uud proceeded to the gate, to guard it and prevent persons from passing without laying toll.

Upon their arrival, they secret ed themselves behind a fence in an adjoining field. Soon after they arrived there, Nuthaniel Roach, with his little son 5 years old, Robert Warlick, Samuel Driggers, and a man named Sykes, arrived at the gate and were about to pass through when the men fired on them from their place of concealment. At the first fire Mr. Roach's little boy was wounded in the neck and IxHly-supposed to be mortally. Sykes was also shot down, mortally tbelern, there are eomo tnterertiog particu lars about her; her great gtaJIMBclo was executed for being a Catholic priest.

Playing the Hind Leos or a Camel !■ The Paris correspondent of The Boston Post tells the following ftinny story: “The nun that plays tho bind legs of the camel ut the Folies Nonvelles Thea ter, is just now the most tulkcd-of individ ual in Paris 1 -‘Tho circus lias its elephants which stand on their heads, uud gesticulate with their trunks, and gambol in various mns sivo ways; and there are wild beast shows without number throughout the city. So the Folies Nouvells, always up to the mark, caused to be constructed an out and out dromedary, and it is exhibited nightly to crowds of delighted spectators. A spotted body, properly humped, and a well-manufactured head, and propelled, as large as life, and three or lour times as natural, by two men inside. Their legs only appear to tho public as furnishing forth the animal’s lower limbs, and nan keen pantaloons essentially assist the illu sion. The camel is led in by a little fel low in flowing clothes and a turban, who puts him through his puces in a highly ac complished manner, nml whirls him Anally oil' to the inspiriting music of a polka exe cuted by the orchestra, the four legs keep ing time in u correct mensure!

The officer, with a possce, ia iu seureh of the offenders, aud anticipates some trouble in arresting them.

The Frenoii^Minister and a Wash inoton Letter Writer.—Several duys ago Count Sartiges received through the post-oflice a newspaper containing a letter from a Washington correspondent, trea ting of the settled antipathy of foreign governments towards the,.united States, as now manifested by the conduct of„ the foreign representatives in their intercourse with society and onr public meu; and which letter was superinduced by the alleg cd indeeeut and'insultlng lauguuge against our government and especially against the Secretary of the State at a dinner recently given by Oonnt Sartiges. The envelop enclosing the newspaper iu ques tion bore the seal of the State Department. Ou Saturday Count Sartiges called on Secretary Marcy, indignantly complaiiiiug of the insult aud demanding that its sns- pseted author be punished, intimating that iu event of a failure to do this he would demand his passports. Mr. Marcy of* course, disavowed all knowledge or responsibility concerning the letter, and expressed his regret that auytliing had happened to occasion oflbnce.—Here wus a quandary, but Count Sartiges was ap parently satisfied, and the Secretary was relieved from his unpleasant position by the author, who was a government, em ployee, but who did not send the letter to Count Sartiges, promptly resigning his office. Metiiodi8t General Conference.- Indianapolis, hnl.,June 4. -Tho Methodist Episcopal General Conference ai^journed last evening sine die, and the members are dispersing to their respective homes, A writer from tho Choctaw country, on tiie boarders of Arkansas, says that so grentlias been'the recent devastation of the locusts throughout “the Nation" that nearly all there have abandoned their corn and cotton crops of the season in despair. How tiie Delegates Look.—Tho Cin cinnati Commercial, a. Know Nothing pa per in closing its report of the first day’ g proceedings of tiie Convenlion.thus speaks of the appearance of the members : "The representatives ol the Democracy in Convention nssembled, are, as u whole, good looking men.—The number of big rosy men is remarkable. Tho general ap pearance of tho body of the delegates is decidedly superior to thnt of tho House of Representatives. Among the other things, it is evident thnt tiie South has scut up its strong men to represent, it on this occasion, ms usual." A Peep at Tosi Campiiei.l.—In letter of the late Thomas Campbell, just printed, tho deceased poet expresses him- Bolf as distressed ut his inability lo dis- 01 cover materials for a life of Mrs. Hiddons, “dear,good Mrs Hiddons.” Ho writes: “She was a very angel, but devils make better stuli' for a biography than angels.

Of the corn planted some weeks ugo the ereulcr part was rotted in the ground. This is quite encouraging. Home have broken up their corn ground tho second time aud ure trying it over. But most persons re furrow tho tiieids, und replant. The diffi culty is by many, throught to be in tiie seed corn, the excessive cold ot last winter having pinched the principle of life out of tiie grain. The wheat is_ now “ heading out,’ but is very short. A New Variety of Feas.—String- less peas which ure eaten, pods and all, while young and tender, are much esteem ed in France.
