The Boston Journal, in alludiug to it, says— “ The variety of breeds on exhibition is very large. Indeed, we can re-call none which u not represented in the Convention by one or more delegates—and some of them came by families, and even by tribes. There is every variety of plumage, shape and size on the ground ; nnd the most fastidious fowl-fancier can certainly find among the collection, birds which will suit his taste. Besides the more common varieties of fowl, there are five or six American eagles, a number of peacocks, some l»eautiful swans, Turkish patridges, a beautiful feathered bird, pigeons of various kinds, Guinea pigs, &c.

It is not generally known that the receipts of the Lind concert in Providence were only some four or five thousand dollars. The citizens had previously boasted that they could get up u 810,000 concert; and after the auction sale, it was announced that the seats had brought over $8000, when in reality (hey brought ouly about one half the ai During tho evening a gentleman was pro ceeding leisurely along towards the concert hall, when he met Mr. Barnum, with his hat his hand, rushing through the street, ap parently in a state of great excitement, " Mr. Barnum, my dear sir, what i matter 1” hurriedly exclaimed the gentleman. I—I—I—’in going after a magistrate !” said P. T., as he he struggled to get away. A magistrate!” Yes, a magistrate! I want to take my Oath !” Your oathT—concerning what!” Why,” yelled Barnum, “ I want to take my oath that I merer will come to Providence ain as long as Hirer Wild Cat.—Of this wily chief (whoso departure from the Seminole country wo to since noticed) the Fort Smith Herald of the 8th inst., says: This fellow hns left the scminole country, understand, for the Rio Grande, and has taken o(T with him about a 100 negroes. A largo number started with him, but a company of Creeks pursued them, and succeeded in capturing 70 or 80, mostly women and chil dren. Wild Cat did not succeed in getting many of his tribo to follow him, only six oi ’ght Scminolcs being in his company. It i: lid that the Agent, Marccllus Duval, Esq. convinced that this crafty and ambiliou: chief has some mischief in view, as he told the Scminolcs ono thing and him another. It probable he will give the Government eat deal of trouble on tho Rio Grande. ] is now a wide range, and a large field for his operations. Tho troops on the Rio Graude will have to keep a sharp lookout for him. Death or Ex-Governor Speight.—Died at his residence near Ncwbcrn, on Sunday morning last, Richard D. Speight, ex-Gov- ernor of North Carolina, in the 54th year of his age. Governor Speight, although for several years past has lived a retired life upon his plantation, formcly took an active part iu local and State politics. He was the last Governor of the State who was elected by the legislature. He filled the executive office the term preceding the election of Gov ernor Dudley. He was highly esteemed as a gentleman of amiable disposition and kind ness of heart, and when in political life, was very popular with the Democratic party, with which party he acted. An Affecting Scene. At a last interview between a condemned criminal and his wife, their child—a bonny weo thing just beginning to prattle—was playing about the cell. Her eye was caught t>y the glitter of the bolts which coufined the father’s leg; and she cried out, in blissful ignorance of their use, “ Oh, daddy, daddy, what pretty things! You never wore those at home.” “ Many a sad thing I have seen,” said the honest jailor who tells tho story, “ and many a bitter cry I have heard withm those walls, but never one that made me blubber like a child til! then. The mother, sir, and the poor fellow himself—oh, sir, it was terrible!” Athens pmcescurrent. , SPLENDID CABINET FURNITURE, DEC. 4....Corrected weekly, by Thomas Btsnor. | -T^TW— m — ai.KE;Mtrj_ SBtetrpg-* J* J* FREDERICK CLARK, 19S KING-STREET, VICTORIA RANGE, " III charleston, s. c.

The boiler is about a foot long, and ight inches in diameter, with a fluo through , not quite in the centre, into which the fire appears to have been placed. The cylinder stands perpendicular, and the frame-work that supports it, is not unlike that now used imo of tho low pressure boats on Lake There is a paddle wheel on each side, in fact, everything appears to be plcte with the exception of a condense force pump. The boiler is even supplied with a safety valve, though part of it has been broken off.” Wilkes Railroad.—We are gratified be able to announce to our readers that th work has actually commenced, and that, af ter many years of hard struggle, we, at last, have tho assurance that the object so indus triously sought is destined to be accomnlish- The engineering corps under theui of Mr. B.

Martin, a citizen of Edgefield Dis trict, South Carolina, committed suicide while on a visit to a friend in Autauga county, Alabama, on the 19tli ult.; by shooting him self through the body with a rifle. He first attempted to cut his throat, and then to dis charge the contents of a double barrel gun through liis head, placing the muzzle Just under the chin; failing in both these efforts, he finally resorted to the rifle. We under stand that the deceased leaves a wife and two children to mourn his loss.—Montgt ry Adr. THE GRAVE OF WASHINGTON. Immense Railroad Travel.—Some idea of the travel between the city of New York aud Albany may bo formed from tlic fact that over six hundred thousand passengers liav passed over the Hudson River railroad dur ing the time it has been in operation, a little more than nine months. When tho road ii complete to Albany, the travel will be still further aud largely increased.

Delay is dangerous—neglect that cold nnd cough few weeks and the hopo of recovery will bo lost I you forever. Let not any pecuniary consideration de ter you from trying to save your life and health while there is a chance. Consumption is annually sweep ing off thousands to the tomb: no disease has baffled the skill of physicians like it: no physician, perhaps, has ever done more for this largo class of suffering humanity, than Dr. WLtar. An “ounce of preven tive is worth a pound of cure:” therefore, before youi lungs become ulcerated, and so diseased that no 1 man means can save you from an early grave, try season, try at once, a medicine which has been such infinite value to thousands—obtain a bottle Dr. Wistar’a Balsam of Wild Cherry, take it, get another if necessary, persevere in using it until you have lemoved the disease entirely, which if neglected will terminate your life.
