of the March Convention, he Addressed nletter to Hon. I. T. Irwin, of Wilkes, President of the December Convention, in whioh he states that this last named body whioh recommended him to the Charleston Convention,- “met in con formity to the long established usage of the democratic party of the State, and he has never entertained a doubt that it was’regular and proper in every respect ‘tod discharged a legitimate du ty and in a manner acceptable to a large majority' of the Democracy.” ' He thinks the call for the March Conven tion was a “most unjust and illiberal at- taok upon a large body of as true and faithful Democrats as ever assembled in the State.” But as the indications were that the party would-be divided, at a time when there was the greatest neces sity for union and harmony, he “waived all questions of regularity and legality —desiring to know the feelings of the Demooraoy on the subjeot." XhQ follow ing extract contains his refusal to per mit hisjoame to go before the Charles- lias assembled -and its proceedings are now before me. V have carefhlly analysed and consider ed them in connection with the action Of the December Convention. The re sult is, that I am. well satisfied that I have, received during this contest the warm arid earnest support of a decided majority of the democracy of the State; for whioh I feel most deeply and sincere ly grateful. It is clear to my mind, how ever, that the opposition to me though not so openly avowed is equally decided. Under these circumstances, I regard tho longer, connection of my name with the nomination at Charleston, as calculated v to produce discord where there should be ’.harmony, and distraction where there .- should be unity. With this conviction there is no room for hesitation os to my course. I must withdraw my name un- , ...conditionally from«,the'canvass; and . this letter is written for the purpose of . . announcing to all who may feel an in- terestinthe matter, but particularly to . the delegation from Georgia, to the - Charleston Convention, that I have done ■o. • We,of course, think this to be the on ly course for Mr. Cobb to pursue, and is just what was anticipated by every one. He has been repudiated by a Conven tion of hiis party In his own State, and he cannot reoieve a single vote in the Charleston Convention. We regret . the necessity whioh has. ((riven Bun to this oondusion, for we obnslderlhat by it, Douglas’ chances in the National Convention are greatly multiplied, and now amount almost to a certainty.-- Whether he will receive • the support of the Southern States is a doubtful ques tion, Our sectional pride ; exeitea the hope that there is too muoh honor and jpritriotism among us to allow'tt; and on tho other hand* the tenacity with whioh 1 Democrats ding to tip nominee of thdr party, no matter how objectionable he may be, destroys this hope. ; If the Administration wing of the Southern Democracy were sincere in their denunciations of Douglas as a “traitor,” “ a gambler in politics,” ;" "worse than Seward” Ac., then with , their co-operation the Constitutional Union candidate may be eleeted. But we fear that like a flock of sheep $hey will follow wheresoever the bell-wether leads them. i . What does It Mean f The Naahrillo Banner publishes a let ter from some New York correspondent with whom it is unaoquainted, who vol unteers to write an artiolo weekly for that paper “at a nominal prloe, or even for nothing if it prefers it.” He says in a private Utter, “between now and the Presidential election lie will tievoto a good share of his time to writing from New York for the Southern press,” and that “his letters will be mainly devoted to promoting concerted political action by the people of the South and tho National or bard-shetl Democracy of the North.” The writer.“expects of oourso to get his pay indirectly, if weelccl * National Democrat President.’’ The object qt his first letter is to secure tho admis sion of tho-Wood delegation to tho Charleston Convention, and wind* dp with “a first rate notice of a Guano speculation in New York,” whioh tho Banner begs to bo excused from pub lishing. We have-received from this Individual the same propositions in a letter ; marked private. His letter for publication is. devoted to the discus sion of the propriety of making Nation al politics a tost in the election of mu- niclpOl officers, and winds up with “a first rate ' notice” of a work of art in New York. We beg to be excused from publishing any part of the letter. Our notion was that it was a new trick in vented for the purpose of obtaining pufis without paying for them; the ostensible object being to discuss poli tics, but the veal one being to bring some humbug ingeniously before the people.. • . Buchanan and Douglas. Hon. Isaac N. Morris, Democrat from Illinois, in the House ot Representa tives, has “let himself out” about the President, in a letter which we find oopied in the Philadelphia Press, from whioh the following is an extract: “I stated at the last session, and re- the true policy of / is to separate from . ’and let it take care of itself, and every day convinces me' more and more that I am right. What have we to gain by adhering to it 7 This war upon Judge Douglas and bis friends has been and will be kept up bitterly. Every effort within the power of patron age, money, and corruption is being, and will be mode, to defeat his nomination at Charleston; and if he suooeeds, the same efforts will be continued afterwards to defeat his election. H Mr. Buchan an and his dependents preferred, as they did, the election of Lincoln to Douglas, is any one silly enough not to believe they would prefer the election of Seward to the Presidency 1 The' truth Is the President would not hesitate to sink the nation to-morrow, and to blow the Democracy to atonm, if he could on ly avert our Senator’s triumph. And as we ore to get no favor, no meroy, no justice, and no toleration from this Ad ministration, 1 am not for giving it any quarter. Both Not th ana South it is equally detested and abhorred by the Democratic party. There are not over three or four men that will attempt to defend and apologize for it. “Judge D„ holds the Administration at arm’s length, nor seeks or desires fel lowship with it. He proudly spurns it from him, and defies both its malice and its power. Nothing could be more in jurious to him than to have it believe he was friend to it.” [From the Correspondence of the N. Y.Dem.] Mr. Kellogg on tho Dougin*—Greeley .Bargain and Intrigue. Mr.'Kellogg, of Ill., in the House yes terday, gave J udge Douglas a tolerable rap overthe knuckles. He spoke for about an houi' to as attentive an audience as 1 have seen during the session. In the progress of his remarks, he took 06- ensionto reiterate the charges he made some weeks ago against Mr. Douglas, namely, that Horace Greeley and other MBFThe Memphis Avalanche a Demo cratic paper in the course of a long arti- clo upon Douglas’ nomination at Char leston says: While thoro are hundreds of Demo crats in the North that tbe South will ipport, there is one that she cannot id will not support. Of course wo al lude to Stephen A. Douglas. Nominate him and the Democratic party will be doomed to defeat, if not to inevitable destruction.; Tho few cowardly spaniels ever willing to take any bone which our Northern masters may throw us, might support Douglas as the least of two evils—and this would be another fatal stab to the South, for to support him will be conclusive evidence of our wil lingness to surrender all our rights,— Has it come to this, that in order to save tho Union we must sacrifice not a doubtful claim but a plain and valuable Constitutional right f Ho is unworthy of the name of freeman, false alike to the teachings of our bravo ancestors and to our obligations to our posterity who oonsuls suoh a policy. If this hate ful dootrine of the choice of evils is to be urged, there is no aggression to whioh our acquiescence may not in its name btfinvoked. If we are to support Doug las now, not because it is right, but be cause he is bettor than Seward it will not be very many years before we shall be called upon to toko Seward be cause he is less objectionable than some body else. A Lad Nearly Strangled to Death while “Playing John Brown.” Yesterday some boys, the eldest not lover twelve years, assembled in the born of Mr. McCrea, on Kinsman street, and resolved to “play John Brown.” One of the number—Master Charles Reinhardt, a bright lad of some twelve years—was selected to act the part of Brown. A mock trial was gone through with, and Brown was sentenced to death. A stout cord was procured and attached to a beam, a noose being made in therope. The cord was placed around his neok and the box upon, whioh he stood was drawn from under his feet. The noose tightened around his neck and he commenced shrieking with pain. . The boys had not expected this, and too frightened to release Mas ter Reinhardt, they stood motionless.— He.grew black in the face, and in a mo ment more must have been strangled to death had not Mr. McCrea’s hired man fortunately arrived at the barn and re leased him. His recovery, was despaired of fora while, but he is now out or dan ger.—Cleveland Plaindcaler. All experience hap proved that play ing John Brown is a very wicked and dangerous past-time, Wood’s Norwalk Speech Endorsed In the South. Mobile, March 27th.—The Mobile Mercury, an ultra Southern rights news paper, publishes tho speech delivered by Hon. Fernando Wood, Mayor of New ■ York, to a recent Democratic meeting at Norwalk, Conn.; says it is a Southern speeoh, and accompanies it with very complimentary remarks. Tub ^Massachusetts Stbikb.—The shoemakers strike, at Haverhill has ool- lapsed. Most of the journeymen have .. orgai with other prominent leaders, resigned in disgust, after denouncing tb« strikers for not holding out. ely. Republicans hod a conference in Judge D/s parlor, soheming and planning for the re-election of him (Douglas) to the Senate. He referred to many state ments and letters in proof of his posi tion. .He moreover charged Mr. Schuyler Colfax, of Indiana, with Inur ing been the confidential bearer of com munications from Horace Greeley to Judge Douglas, pending the contest for Senator in Illinois, ana that Mr. Seward although absent from the oountiy, had said that he preferred the election of Douglas rather than Lincoln. These declarations were made with a boldness and without apparent fear of contradiction whioh commanded the at tention of.every ono present,- end it was obvious before Mr. .Kellogg concluded that he had fixed the truth of his as sertions impressively upon the minds of members and others who heard him.— If the representations he made were untrue or exaggerated, why did not Mr. Colfax and others,' who are-< tho adher ents and apologists of Judge Douglas, take up-the cudgel- and pronounce his speech a fabrication 7 On such occasions Bilence is always ominous, and, as at general thing equivalent to consent.— Yesterday it was so regarded, and if there be no denial and refutation of this sweeping denunciation, proclaimed -in unmistakeable language on tho floor of Congress, Mr. Douglas can never lift bis head from the darkness whioh will en velope his political fortunes. I say, if this be true. We all know that, at a moment like the present, when parties are arrayed against parties, and sections against seotions, rivalries and antagon isms spnng up which force men to the commission of rash and fatal blunders, whioh, at other times, would bo ignored as demoraliz ng and dishonorable. The Harvard Law School. Yesterday morning, while Prof. Joel Parker was addressing the students of the Cambridge Law School upon con stitutional law, he adverted, fer the pur pose of illustration, to the mission of Mr. Hoar to Soutli Carolina* Hereupon the Southern students present felt im pelled to indulge iu applause. This being rightly construed by the Northern boys as an expression of approval of thecon- duot of the South Carolinians toward Mr. Hoar, they responded with hisses. Prof. Parker exhibited much feeling at at these unusual demonstrations, and in expressing his regret at the occurrence, took occasion to remark that, for twelve years past, a similar experience' hrid not befallen him ns a lecturer. After what bod taken placo, however,.he.would im prove this opportunity to soy. that, al though the police regulations of South a might afford some extenuation for the behavior toward Mh Hoar, yet tho.conduot of. her oitizens bn that oc casion, more than any other single act,’ had operated to create the' existing un pleasant differences between the North and South. Prof. Parker alsol, took oc casion, to assure the students that he should not be deterred by any .’expres sions of disapproval on their part, from allowing himself oil neces&fy ;lattitude of remark in the discussion of the im portant questions whioh would -be his duty, as a law lecturer, to take under consideration.—Boston Journal, 21 st. Quenching Thirst. Nearly ahundred years ago,'Dr, Lind uggested to Captain Kennedy that hirst might be quenched atsea by dip ping the clothing in salt water, and put ting it on without wringing. Subse quently, the Captain, on being castaway had an opportunity of making the ex periment. With great difficulty he suc ceeded in persuading a part .of the men to follow his example, and tney all sur vived; while the four who refused and drank suit water became delirious and died. In addition to putting on tbe clothes, while wet, night and morning they may be wetted while on, two or three times during 1 the day. Captain K. goes on tossy: “After these opera tions we uniformly found that the vio lent draught went off, and the parched tongue was cured in a .few minuted after bathing and washing our clothes, while we found ourselves as much refreshed as if we had received some actual .nour ishment.” The bare possibility *cif the truth of tbe statement makes it a hu manity for any paper to give it a wide ublicity, since there are not many ref ers in any hundred who may not go to sea and be ship-wrecked.

The gorge over which he will walk is 367 feet deep;” Mississippi University.—There has been a general flare up in the" Universi ty of Mississippi. Charges were made against the President, Mr. Barnard, of recieving the evidence of a negro against one of the students.

The foot is, (hio,) my dear, some scoundrel’s been rubbing the (hie,) bottom of my boots till they are as smooth as a pane of glass.” Something Novel Under this caption, thd Charleston Courier, of the 24th, states that cars had arrived at Charleston, from Nashville, Memphis, Ac., without breaking bulk of freight, and that the same cars would be returned to tbe same points with re turn freights. However novel such a transportation may be to Charleston, it is not at all novel to Savannah, as, for several years past, frbm Sa o train The subject is so old with us os to be past oil remark, and wo should not re fer to it now were it not to show how much Savannah is in advance of Char leston in the favorof those interior mer chants who desire quick transporta tion. On the 24th—tbe same day on whioh tho Courier mentions—there wore load ed at tbe Central Railroad depot, in this city, five cars of ice for Chattanoo ga, six cars of timber for Huntsville, for tho Memphis k Charleston road, to build a bridge with, ond a car of ice for Rome. On Friday last, a passenger car built in the Central Railroad Bhops, was shipped to Vicksburg, Miss., for the Vicksburg, Shreveport k Texas Rail road. It was packed away in box cars, and goes through without any change. .
