Suspicion* Marriage.
The Atlanta InteUigyncer tells of an old
lady, two-grown sous, and a nice Black
eyed daughter, about sixteen, appa- ,
rently in charge of a middle-aged man,
of some forty or more, arrived in Atlan
ta, by the State Road train, on Tuesday t
night last, with a negro in company. — ,
The party stopped there, and yesterday (
in the the forenoon, the middle-aged
man, accompanied by the nice young
girl with the black eyes, were married, '
by the Rev. Jas. Peacock, who knew
nothing about the suspicious circum
stances ; and the happy gentleman, ac- j |
companied by llio unfortunate girl, as
as his wife, together with the mother,
two brothers, and the negro, all left
on the cars yesterday for Macon.
Something was said during the ex
citement, about a wife and three chi!
dren belonging to one of the party, be
ing left behind. They are said to be
from Murfreesboro', Tenu. Perhaps
our exchanges in that section can give
lissome light on the subject.
Odorous Comparisons.
The “funny man" of the Savannah
Georgian , in his faint effort at a reply
to our expose, a day or two ago, reminds
us of a monkey climbing a bean-pole—
the higher he climbs, the more ridicu- ;
lous aspect he presents.

A difficulty occurred a few days
ago between Cadets Beale and Manning, i
of the Georgia Military Institute, at j j
Marietta, in which Mr. Massing was sc- \ 1
verely stabbed with a knife, inflicting 1
one or more wounds, from which it is i
thought to be impossible for him to i
recover. Young Beall left tiio place i
immediately, but some of liis fellow ■
students are said to be in pursuit of]
him, and will take him back to Mariet-|
ta, if overtaken.

Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.
Montgomery, Ala, May 11.1858.
The Convention is now very full, rep
resentatives from nearly all tlte Mouth
ern States having come in.
The speech making commenced this
morning liy Roger A. Pryor, who was
opposed to the re-opening of the slave
trade, and developed his views in a
speech of an hour and a half At the
conclusion of his able speech, the Hon.
Win. L. s'anev, offered resolutions, ex
hibiting bis own views on the subject
under discussion, and then went into an
argument in reply to the gentleman
from Virginia.
Mr. Yancey’s speech was of the most
able character. He is considered one of
the greatest men in the Convention.—
Mr. Yancey is eminently the type of a
Roman Orator, and although, on ac
count of his independence, he may not
now occupy the place in the affections
of the people, whien his eminent ability
would seem to indicate, yet no ordinary
place is reserved for him in the coun
cils of the nation.
Mr. Pryor is one of those excentrie
individuals, who, like a grindstone
worn on one side, vibrates as he re
volves in the duty of life, grinding
where it is at least expected, and ex
hibiting no grit, where it is often rea
sonably looked for.
Like many of' the most successful
men in all ages, be is indebted to his
pnpriuu, to his perseverance and per
tenacity for his success. He is a Vir
ginian, aud on account of liis allusion
to Virginia, asked the pardon of the
Convention for indulging in the usual
weakness of Virginians, to frequently
allude to the land of their birth, lie
is a’man of medium size, with long
hair combed behind the ears ; his man
ner is cool, exhibiting perfect confi
dence in bis own ability. He makes
assertions with all the dignity of an
oracle. Skylight.

Mr. Editor:— Having traveled over
portions of Georgia and South Carolina
this winter and spring, looking’round,
I thought I would pay a flying visit to
this State and Tennessee, before the
weather gets too warm.
In mv ramblings, I have paid
particular notice to the wheat crops,
and find them quite indifferent. On
leaving CassviUe the 23d nit , the
wheat looked very well, and promised
a large yield, though the ground and
fences were covered witli a very white
frost. I left too early to ascertain
whether the wheat was injured any or
not.
In all the other counties I have pass
ed through or heard from, the fly is in
juring it to a large extent. The frost
and fly together have given it the ap
pearance of having the yellow fever.—
On inquiry, we find no one who antici- ,
pates more than a half crop in this
poition of Alabama.
Having had so much rain this winter
and spring, I find the farmers generally i
from four to five weeks later this spring 1
than last in getting their seed in the i
ground.
Notwithstanding the unfavorable
prospect for another crop, I find grain
of every kind exceedingly cheap in this
mountainous country. Good wheat is
dull at 40 t 045 cents per bushel. Corn,
by wholesale, from 25 to 30 cents per
bushel.
Yours, Ac., Blok Horn.

Editor Dispatch:— On my way from Al
abama to this place I also found the
wheat quite sorry for thisgrain growing
country. Sinee t wrote you from Ala
! baina, I do not see that the prospect is
any better now than then for a good
j crop.
; ] All the.com I see up looks sickly and
■! small, having been scorched by the
! frost. I have not seen enough cotton
■ I up to form an opinion how the frost
: used it.
■ I see the peaches near CassviUe, and 1
presume other fruits in low places, are
nearly all killed.
All early garden vegetables were kill
ed, aud had to be replanted
At Calhoun and CassviUe, and all in
• termediate points, they had a little
| flood last Monday night nnd Tuesday.
. I understand the water courses were
. higher and did more damage to fencing
I I and crops than any freshet they had
■! during the past winter.
I presume a great deal of wheat in
| low places will be drowned out andcov
>i ered oveT with sand, logs, &c.

There was a hearing yesterday, in th'-j

Judge Metcalf, on the petition of Hugh
Collins, for possession of his daughter, aj
child of four years of age. The peti- j

and he placed the child, then but a week
old, with the respondent to board, at
$1.50 per week. There is now due SGO
for board, and the respondent claims to
hold the child until the bill w, s paid.
The Judge held no such right existed,
and discharged the child, who was im
mediately taken away by the father.—

wholesome revolution created in the system, the ;
