It is understood that all the Delega tions except those from South Carolina , Florida, will go to Baltimore, and claim the right of admission there. A Panama Beauty. Says a correspondent writing from Panama: “Some of the women are remarkably handsome and graceful. About nine o’clock in the morning, when the rays of the sun were getting to be powerful, ['dropped into a house, which was visi ble through the verdure, to get a cup of oold water. The heads of the family had no doubt gone into the forests to pick fruits, for no one was at home but a young Indian maiden, who started up like a startled fawn at my appearance, and might have tied, if I had not been stationed in the doorway. Forming my hand into the shape of a drinking-cup, and elevating it to my mouth, I made known my wants. She was immediate' ly re-assured, and led the way to a shady grotto, in the rear of the dwelling, where a crystal mountain-spring burst forth from the gifted rock, while I fol lowed, in speechless admiration of the vision of loveliness which floated be fore me. She was attired in a loose dress of the purest white, adown which her luxuriant hair, platted in broad, flat plaits, hung to nn almost incredible length. Her complexion was a soft- tinted olive—a good, rich color, but yet so delicate withal that the slightest emotion was sufficient to send tho crim son to her cheeks. Each rounded arm was enclosed by a curiously shaped and costly bracelet, and in her ears were strangely-fashioned pendants, some what in the fonu of a crescent. Her forehead was exquisitely chiseled, and her features almost Greeeian in their contour. But, how shall I ever describe tho^e glorious, dreamy eyes, their fath omless depths of liquid blue, or those long, drooping lushes, which ever and anon came softly down, like silken cur tains. In a picture gallery on Fourth street, Cincinnati, is a tolerably fair represen tation of a Southern Indian woman, in the painting of "Cortez Burning his Fleet." Tire maidens in Powell’s paint ing of “De Soto Discovering the Missis sippi,” are still better, but both fall far short of portraying the union of every quality of grace and beauty which stood in stainless purity before me. Could an artist put upon canvass the picture there presented, the shady dell, tropi cal fruits and flowers, the limpid spring and mossy rooks, the rosy skies and pur ple mountain peaks, that sweet snd face and faultless form, he might then lay down his pencil nnd live upon his fame forever. As she stopped upon the slippery rock, with a ouaintly fashioned gourd, to dip up tho clear water, there was disclosed a foot whose polished out lines had never been sullied by the shoe of civilization, and which her native in- nocjnce had never dbeon taught to hide, I could have lingered long in that ro mantic glen, but time would only per mit mo to thank my fair benefactress by all the signs and gestures at my com mand, which were received with such extraordinary modesty that I stood abashed at my rudeness. If your cor respondent had yielded to the same in stinctive impulse which leads tho wor- shippor of art to bow before the divine productions of Phidias or Angelo, and had thrown himself at those fair feet in anuctof adoration, he would undoub tedly have made a tool of himself, and therefore wisely refrained. A Suockixg Tragedy.—The Memphis Appeal of Thursday has the following: We learned Inst evening from a gen tleman who came a passenger by ti e train over the Memphis and Little Book Railroad, that a terrsble and fa tal affray occured near Madison, Ar kansas, yostevdny morning. It seems that an altercation occurred between a gentleman who was immigrating, with his family, in a wagon, and an individu al who was passing them on the road. After the man had got some distance from the moverB, he raised his gun and fired at the gentleman in tho wagon, the shot missing the object aimed at, but striking and killing the gentleman’s wife. The mover contemplated the sad result for a moment, when ho seiz ed his own rifle and shot the despoiler of the happiness of his family. We did not learn the names of either party to the deadly affray. Jjgy-Tho Washington correspondent of tho Charleston Courier, under date of of the 11th inst., says: Some of tho members of the Baltimore Convention have arrived. Tho Douglas men are coming in from all quarters, and appear to be inflamed with enthu siasm and zeal in his behalf. Any one who had indulged the hope that- the Baltimore Convention would harmo nize either upon a platform of princi ples or of a nomination should abandon it now. Nothing is more certain than tho fact that the Douglas men come prepared and resolved to repudiate ev en tho Tennessee resolutions, which the recent Southern State Conventions hove also repudiated. Still less will tfoo Douglas men be disposed to assent to the Charleston Majority Platform.— A rupture of the Convention at Balti more may bo regarded, therefore, os inevitable. Hicks, the Pirate. Hicks, the murderer of the ' Watts boys and Captain Burr, on a sloop oil' Sandy Hook, lias made a confession.— From his disclosures as to this tragedy and the hints he drops of participation other bloody atrocities on sea and land, there can.be no doubt that he is a felsn of the first magnitude. We have been accustomed late years to regard such sea monsters like Hicks as existing chiefly in the realms of romantic fiction but a perusal of “his own report against himself," and what is being nourly de veloped about him and others of his kind, must startle the public from this delusion.) This man seems to have been engaged in deeds of blood all his life. Some days ago the. publication of certain dog- gvcl verses dictated by Hicks led to the belief that be was an actor in a sangui nary piracy on the “Saladina," and this belief was confirmed by the facts. A gentleman of New York who yvas in 1844 attached to the United States naval service, and who was in that year in commission on board a ship on the Pa cific station, visited Hicks with a view to identify him as the Johnson engaged in the Saladina affair. This gentleman at once recognized the prisoner as the man who had been for some years a “beach-comber” or cruiser on the Span ish Main, who had been several time a tried tor offences at Callao-, and the identical Johnson who engoged in the brutal murder of Captain McKensie nnd his mate on the Saladina. In this, I-Iicks was under the leadership of a brother sea-robber named Fielding' who subsequently took command of the ves sel, but Hicks and the piratical crew be coming tired of him, also, they held a counsel about putting him to ueath and in his own presence too, nnd then in cold blood threw him overboard.— There will bo no sympathy expressed at the announcement that such a repro bate is to be executed on the 13th of Ju ly.—P/iila.

FOR INFLAMATORY DISEASES ONLY. D R. COGGSWELL’S New Medical Salt, instead of being a remedy for all ills, hus control over but one ill, has hut one aim, and accomplishes but one tiling, to wit: Sub dues Intlainntory Diseases—whatever be its form or locality, whether in tho head, throat, abdomen, extremities or skill. The peculiar excellence of the Now Medi cal Salt is, that without tho useless loss of blood nud strength, it effectually cures In- flamatory Diseases (no others) by producing an equilibrium of all the fluids in tho body, the waut of which is tho solo Cause of in flammation. Invalids, Tako Notice! — The following forms which tho unbalanced fluids assume and many not hero mentioned, that have moro or less fever and p .in, are easily sub dued by the New Medical Salt as fire is ex tinguished by water, to wit: Brain Fever, Headache, Rush of Blood to the Head and Heart, Fits, Inflamod Eyes, Ears and Nose, Canker, Neuralgia, Spinal Affections, Ery sipelas, Bronchitis, Pleurisy, Asthma, In flamed Lungs and Liver, Heartburn, Coughs, Dyspepsia, vcnerial Disoases, Rheumatism, Gout Scrofula, Salt Rheum, and all Itching and other cutaneous eruptions. Dr. Coggswell’s New Medical Salt exerts like the vaccine spatter, an extraordinary in fluence over tho reins and ar|pries, resulting in a gradual declining of inflammation as in dicated by the pulso, which soon returns to its natural state, as the heat, pain and fever disappear. Dr, Coggswell’s Now Medical Salt does just what it claims to do no more no loss—equal izes tho fluids by removing from tho system all arterial and venous obstructions.
