fowls coining in to a roost, they are

steamers arrived this' morning from
New Orleans, Philadelphia, New York
and Boston, with four hundred pas-

as many more. Those who chartered

the Cabins on the boats,' and to-day os
soon, as they reached the wharves, dele-
- gates and othere were running about in
every direOtioxi seeking lodfdng places
and something to eat. They will have
■ to pay not only the' amount contracted
- for with the steamers, but also the give
dollars a day, which they endeavored to
avoid. The “ John A. Moore,” will leave
- Augusta tomorrow, with a number of
persons who have engaged board on
that boat. They too, will be compelled
to “give up the ship.”

If I may judge from the appearance
of those gentlemen whom I have seen,
the Convention will be composed of
large, fine looking and dignified men.—
There mil not he an organization on
Monday. It will require at least one
day, and perhaps more, to settle the
difficulties arising from the conflicting
. claims of . rival delegations from, the
same States—and in the settlement
much bitter feeling will be engendered.
The delegates and others ore busily
discussing the question—who will be the
nominee f While passing {long the
IGSKThe Charleston Cornier of the
23d gives the following : /'
“As will bo seen from reports in other
§ laces, the delegates of the thirty-tluce
tates are present in good force, and
most of the delegations are full.
The few names yet missing will no
doubt bo reported or accounted for this
morning, in addition to the delegates,
who. number roundly About aboubjggO,
here is not yet the large influx of- visi
on whioh was anticipated by sonde,
id feared or deprecated by others.
The number of visitors, exclusive ot
delegates, who were reported up to Sun
day morning, did qpt, We think, exceed
fifteen hundred persons. Many of
these wore from considerable distances,
and the list will be largely increased.—
We may expect this day some of our
visiting friends from South Carolina and
from neighboring cities, but’ it is now
quite evident that the precautions tokeh
The
by our leading landlords to prevent a
surfeit of visitom to theoity will be en
tirely successful.
There are ample accommodations for
all and formany more, and if any are
packed uncomfortably or unreasonably,
it will not he from necessity. * * *
It is pleasant ot least to state that
however sharp the political antagonisms
involved in the Convention, and how
ever varied in shape and size the axes
which ninny ore waiting eagerly to grind
the social communications between the
different delegations have been brisk
ahd agreeable.
“A delegate” or “delegation” is suf
ficient introduction to the publio rooms
or quarters of any one Of the delega
tions, and the sprig of mint tastefully
arranged in a liquid boquet has been
recognized as an olive branch by the
representatives from Maine and Cali
fornia, and all the States scattered about
between these geographical extremes.—
The South furnishes the thirst-provok
ing weather and the North furnishes
the iee and then Cincinnati gives the
platform and the “corn cordial,” and
Cuba gives the sugar, and African is
frequently represen ted in the Ganymede
Who mixes and stirs the cup and thus all
find at loast one point and principle of
union and confederation.
Mysterious Music.
The mystio music sometimes heard at
the mouth of the Pascagoula river, on a
still night, is one of the wonders of our
coast. It is not confined, however, to
the Pascagoula river, but has often been
heard at other places. At the mouth
of Bayou Coq d’Inde and other inlets
opening into the Gulf along the coast of
our own country, the cunods listener,
lying idly in his boat, with lifted oars,
when every other sound is hushed
may sometimes hear its strains com
ing apparently from beneath the wa
ter, like soft notes of distant Eolinn
harps.
The phenomenon, as we all know, has
been a fruitful source of legend, romance
and poetry. The traditions that have
been related, in explanation of it va
ry considerably from each other. One
account is a story of individual love and
soitow, and attributes tho “mysterious
music” to nn Indian maiden who once
ilunged into tho sea in grief for the
oss of her lover. Another gives nn ac
count of a bloody battle between two
tribes and the final extinction of the
few survivors by driving them into the
wa.ter—the plaintiff wail of their linger
ing spirits keeping up a perpetual me
morial of the tragical event. Yet an
other version is that given by M. Gay-
atre, an old Christian missionary and
the revenge of the mermaid.
We had always supposod that this
ihenomenon, whatever its origin might
>e, natural, or supernatural, was pecu
liar to our own coast. It appears, how
ever, from an extract given by some of
the English papers from Sir Emerson
Tennent’s recent work on Ceylon, that
something very like it is known at Bat-
ticaloa, in that island, and is attributed
streets we meet knots of them, four or to a rather less poetical and mysterious
,origin—that is, to a particular species of
m0re, and hoar, some such expressions They are said to be heard at
as the following: “distract tlio party,” nig ht,.and most distinctly when the
"availability,” “Squatter. Sovereignty,” I moon is nearest the full, and are de-
’ Ac., Ac. Douglas has one deoided ad
vantage over his opponents—he comes
here with his delegates in a solid phalanx
no element distraoting and weakening
them. The South and her friends are
divided between os many candidates as
there are States, and some Stales sub
divided into factions. The result can
be foreseen, snd> must be deplored
Douglas will soon get a majority, and
then these who are now on the ffcpce
will tumble over to his side with most
amusing rapidity, and then the balance
will sot down to a feast that will not be
of reason; or to speak in plain terms,
they, must go to work, busily and gour-
mandizo their vocabulary of anti-Doug
las oaths. i
To-morjrow is Sunday, but it will not

There will be much caucussing, discus
sing, and I fear,‘a great deal of another

The following statement was mado by
Lord John Busaoll in the British
House of Commons, on tho 30th ulti

National Democratic Conven
tion.
Charleston, April 23.—The National
Democratic Convention met in "the In
stitute Hall'at noon to-day. Judge
Smalley, of the National Democratic
Executive Committee.cal led the Conven
tion to order. >
A motion Was made that Col. Thomas
B. FlourAoy, of Arkansas, be appointed
temporary Chairman, whioh was adopt
ed by acclamation. Win. F. Richie was
chosen Secretary. ,'■ $
The Convention- w«popened with an
lpressive prayer. iby’ Bev. Dr. Henkle,
of the Episcopal' Church of Charles
ton.
V.; Fisher offered a resolution
whioh led to ah excited and animated
discussion. Many motions were made,
and amendments offered, whioh appear
ed at one time to tin eaten disorder and
confusion; but owing to the firmness of
the President, who is an experienced
parliamentarian, quiet and good order
were preserved.
Messrs, Walker, of Ala.; Clarke, of
Missouri; Richardson, of Illinois, mVd
Cochrane, of New York, participated in
the debate. Several of the speakers
became quite animated and very excited
in the course of the discussion.
There was considerable discussion,
also, in regard to the contesting delega
tions from New York, and Illinois.—
Finally, a Committee of too from each
State was appointed to report on the
permanent organization of the Conven
tion, and also a committee to report on
the credentials of delegates.
The Douglas men here appear san
guine of the nomination of their favor
ite, but there is a very strong influence
prevailing here in favor of Hunter.—
Knowing ones assert that Douglas and
Stephens will be the nominees of the
Convention, for President- and Vice
President.
Some few States will probably recede
on the adbption of a platform that does
not exactly 'Square with their ideas,
but the great body of the delegates will
remain.
Tho Convention has adjourned until
Tuesday at 10 o’clock, A. M.
SECOND DISPATCH.
Col. Flournoy, on taking the Chair,
briefly returned thanks for the honor
which the Convention had conferred
upon him, and said that ho would en
deavor to bring about a speedy organi
zation.
Mr, Fisher’s motion, the cause of the
excitement before ulluded to, was that
he be permitted to read a letter to the
Convention.
Mr. Winston, of Alabama, raised a
point of order that the letter did
not relate to the question of organiza
tion.
The Chair decided that the letter
could be read for information.
Mr. Fisher said it was pertinent..
The letter was about to be read, when
Mr. .Cochrane, of New York, objected,
and pressed Mr. Winston’s motion.
Mr. Fisher interrupted Mr. Coch
rane ; but tho latter continued speak
ing.
Mr. Pugh, of Ohio, asked Mr.
Fisher to give the substance of the let
ter.
Mr. Cochrane endeavored tomake a
motion that the rules of the Cincin
nati Convention be adopted by this
body.
■ Mr. Fisher refused to yield the
floor.
Tho Choir decided him out of or
der.
Mr. Walker, of Alabama, mountod
the Clerk’s desk, and endeavored to
speak. Ho appealed from tho decision
of the Chair, but the Chair sus
tained Mr. Cochrane's motion, and the
rules of the Cincinnati Convention were
adopted.
Mr. Fisher again attempted to read
the letter, but the Chair refused to per
mit it. It was from Hon. Fernando
Wood, of New York, and was subse
quently referred to the Committee on
Credentials.
Many motions were made during
the duy, but they were generally unira
portent.

-It is seldoni that •.
occurs in connection
tempt,,yet a .moat ludiorons affair of
this nuture occurred at the City Hall,
en Saturday evening. Wm. Williams,
a colored boy, familiarly known ns
“Bill.” and a young Irishman named
William' Jenks, r were arrested by officer
Palfrey for being engaged in a street
fight. They were lodged temporarily in
the auction room of the officer, when
Bill, after begging in vain to be let ofl,
griped his throat with his fingers and
attempted to choke himself. He was
already black in the face when he was
ordered into a carriage and removed to
the City Hall. A small bottle of R. G.,
found in his pocket, explained the cause
of the melee,
After being placed in the lock-up,
Bill made a second attempt, nob exact
ly to end his wretched existence, but to
persuade the officers into the belief that
lie was determined to kill himself, and
thus regain his liberty. Tho officer ap
proached the cell door, when the follow
ing colloquy occurred:
Bill—Mossa Officer, take dis scarf, or
I shall hang myself.
Officer (smelling a rat)—I shall not:
it’s the best thing you can do.
Bill removes the neckerchief, ties it
round his neck, taking good caro that
the knot shall come across his chin in
stead of under his left ear—looks about
for a suitable place from whioh to sus
pend himself.
Bill—Where can I tie dis, Mossa offi
cer.
Officer—(helping on the joke)—Tie
it to the top of tho door.
Bill ties the scurf to the upper bar of
thaeell door, throws his feet out from
under him, and hangs comfortably with
his back against the'door.
Officer—He dies easy I
Bill—Massa Officer, I’s most gono.
After hanging about three minutes
the darkey jumped up and recovering
himself with wonderful alacrity, ex
claimed—“D—n dese officers. Dey’d

musical cadences are said to issue from

In due time after thatjfe mentioned

husband. Last year we chronicled the
death of this husband. We have now
to state that the lady is again married,
this husband, as some say, being her
seventh, and os others maintain, her
eighth. The singular fatality among
