Telegraphic dispatches from Lecompton an nounce that the constitutional convention has ad journed to the third Monday iu October. We fur ther learn that the free State delegates were refused teats in the convention, but the reason for the re fusal is not given. A Defaulting Collector. —It has been ascer tained that Jacob Richardson, deceased, who was collector at Oswego, New York, under the Tatlob and Fillmore administration, is a defaulter to the enormous amount of two hundred thousand dol lars. His bail is but forty thousand dollars, and suits have been commenced for that amount. The Kansas Convention.—The Conventiou elected for the purpose of framing a Constitution preparatory to the admission of the Territory into the Union as a State, met at Lecompton, last Monday. Rev. Geo. H. Doank, son of the Episcopal Bishop of New Jersey, was on Sunday, the 13th inst., or dained a priest of the Roman Catholic Church, in St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Newark, N. -I. Louisiana Intelligence. The Homer (Claiborne parish) Advocate, of she Ist instant, says: During tbe past week we have had several show ers, with the nights aud mornings cool for the season. We understand that some of our planters fear their cotton crops will be cut short, as the forms continue to drop off, and the bolls have taken the rot. The Vernon (Jackson parish) Herald, of the 4th instant, reports some very cool nights for the sea son, during the past week. The Alexandria Democrat, of the Bth instant, reports the weather delightful, and the crops “do ing as well as they can under the circumstances." The Pointe Coupee Echo, of the 12th instant, says: From all sections of our parish we hear reports of the prevalence of chills and fever to a consider able extent, and within the past week several deaths have occurred. Our cotton planters have fairly commenced picking, hut do not, we believe, anticipate a large crop. The cane is growing and looking finely, and we hear of some who will commence to grind the first of next month. The cane, generally speak ing, is fully a month backward, and the yield, the first run, will be quite small, on account of the greenness of the cane. Upon the whole, an aver age crop, we think, will be made in our parish. From the Montgomery {Ala.) Mail, Sept. 17. Awful Poisoning. One of our subscribers, from Pike county, in formed us yesterday of a most horrible and atrocious ease of poisoning in that county, just below the line of Montgomery, aud in the neighborhood of Bruceville. The annals of crime will hardly show a more extensive and diabolical piece of villainy. It seems that a German, or Hungarian, whose name our informant had forgotten, was on intimate terms with a negro woman, the property of old Mr. Thomas Frazell, one| of the earliest settlers of Pike. This man had once been in the employ of Mr. F., aud was familiar with his premises. Some time since he had been detected m gambling with Mr. F.’s negroes, and Mr. F. had instituted a pros ecution against him. On Saturday evening, 12th instant, lie was seen iu conversation with the ne gro woman above alluded to, at the well, although he had received orders from Mr. Frazell never to come about his premises. On Sunday, there were some thirty-sren persons Jiniug at Mr. Frazell’s house, of whom about thirty were visitors from the neighborhood. All these became sick soon after eating, vomiting violently; and the cook being arrested immediately, on a suspicion of poisoning, at once proceeded to state as follows: she said that the white man above re ferred to, wlule at the well, had given her a vial containing arsenic, which he instructed her to mingle with ‘‘the meal, the milk, the butter and the coffee.” He was particularly desirous that it should go into every article of food, because old Mr. Frazell was iu delicate health, and generally ate very sparingly. The negro woman said she followed the directions of her lover to the letter— who, by the way, added to his instructions the re mark, ihat “ after the old man had taken that, he would hardly prosecute him iu that case.’’ The poison was administered, as we have seeu, but too successfully. The whole assemblage oi persons were put under its influence; and at the fast accounts, sir had died from its effects. Old Mr. Frazell died about sunset of Sundar, the day of the poisoning. His overseer’s wife aud two children, Mrs. Cloud, a widowed daughter of Mr. F., and Mr. F.’s grand-daughter, died the next day. Several others were lying in a critical con dition, and doubtless there will be more victims of this awfully fiendish crime. Mr. Jack Frazell, son of the old man, happened to be out of meal on the day of the poisoning, and sent to his father’s and borrowed a bushel. Ail who partook of this, including a brother "who had declined to eat at his father’s—having come in af ter some of the company had got sick —were more or less affected. After we had written ihe above, our informant, Mr. J. M. Johnson, of Pike, called on us again, and gave us the name of the poisoner, which is Comiska. Mr. J. further states, that the infuri ated people of the neighborhood have burnt the negro woman, and will perform the same service for Comita on next Monday. Iu the meantime he is safely lodged in jail at Troy. He neither de nies nor admits anything. People.— On Monday, the 14th inst., a French wpman went down from this city, on the car= of [the aut * Toledo railroad, to Mon roe, vrho has attuned the great age'of one hun dred and eleven years*, bhe was nearly blind and almost entirely helpless. The same day an Indian idok tbe cars for Pon tiac who had reached the age of one hundred and tour years. He was smart aud vigorous s»p*- such incidents as these occur now-a-days. Detroit Tribunt. The Democratic Meeting Last Night, The court room of the City Hall was crowded last evening by the voters of Richmond, anxious to see and to hear the Democratic candidate for the office of Governor. Before Judge Brown’s ap pearance, the meeting was organized by the nomi nation of George W. Lamar, Esq., as chairman, and Thadecs Oakman, as secretary; and on mo tion of James M. Smvthe, Esq., the following committee— James M. Smtthe, 1. P. Gap.vin, A. ( Philip, W. H. Howard, Berrien Rachels, | L. D. Lallestedt, and J. B. Weems —wasappointed j by the Chair to report the name of a suitable can | didate ol the Democratic party for the Senate. | This committee having retired for a few moments j from the Hall, returned and reported through their chairman,’Mr. Smtthe, the name of G. W. Lamar. The announcement of this selection was received with enthusiastic cheers by the assembled multi tude, and Mr. Lamar, in his place as chairman of the meeting rose, aud iu a few appropriate remarks accepted the nomination tendered. Immediately afterwards, Judge Brown made his appearance, and being introduced by the chairman, proceeded with his address. This occupied two hours in its delivery. It was a close, compact and con vincing argument, and one of the most candid and conciliatory political addresses to which we have ever had the pleasure of listening. Many members of the American party were present dur ing its delivery, gave it a respectful and attentive hearing, and went away doubtless better pleased than they would be willing this morning to con fess. We shall give the substance of Judge Brown’s admirable speech in our next issue, de siring that all our readers may know his posi tion upon every important question of the can vass, for he has a position, and states it so plainly and so frankly, that no one who hears him speak can misunderstand him, or ignorantly misrepre sent him. After the conclusion of Judge Brown’s ad dress, Capt. Walker, one of the Democratic candidates for the representative branch of the General Assembly, in response to repeated and urgent calls upon him, came forward and entertained the meeting with a short but tell ing speech, in which he showed that the Ameri can candidates in this county had a different platform, and raised different issues in almost every militia district in it, just as the party to which they belong has a different platform and a different policy m almost every congressional dis trict in the State. Judge Brown has made an exceedingly favora ble impression in this city, not only with Demo crats, but with Americans ; and with a full ticket in the field for the legislature, upon which the party is cordially united, we shall poll a vote in October which will convince all that the Democra cy of Richmond never can be dispirited. It has resisted the American Order when it was a power to be dreaded in the State and in the nation, and it will do its part, now that this Order is making its death struggle in tins State, iu dealing the blow which shall effectually aud forever “ kill it off.” There are sixteen candidates for the otlice of of Sheriff iu Dallas county, Ala., already; the elec tion comes off’m August, 1858. From the Wilmington, (X. C.) Journal. Disasters, Barque Colin Mcßae, Bramhall, from Liverpool for this port, with salt, arrived off Main Bar on Wednesday afternoon, six o’clock, came to anchor with the wind N. E. Could not obtain a steamer to tow in. On Thursday and Friday had heavy blow from N. E. About five o’clock Saturday af ternoon, wind changed to W. S. W., blowing very heavy; at eight o’clock, p. m., parted chains, and at nine o’clock struck on Middle Ground ; vessel will prove a total loss. She was owned by J. &D. Mcßae A Co., and Wm. Neff A Sons, of this town; Capt. Bramhall and J. Pearce & Co., of Belfast, Me,; fully insured. A portion of the sails and rig ging and' pari of cargo will probably be saved in a damaged condition. The captain and crew wore tasen off during last night, and reached town this morning in the steamer Sprav. The barque J. W. Blodgett, from Turk’s Island, for New York, laden with salt, was also anchored off Main Bar, with pumps choked and leaking very badly, (intending to put in for repairs). On Sat urday night she parted her chains, and was blown across Frying Pan Shoals, thumping heavily; was run ashore near New Inlet, with loss of both an chors and part of sails. Wo learn that the captain and crew reached Federal Point, where they now are. Schooner Enniv Ward, Bradley, from Charleston 6th instant for New York, laden with wheat, flour, cotton and rice. Experienced a succession of gales and had been as far North as 34.23. On Friday the wind increased to a hurricane, and vessel la boring heavily sprung aleak ; pumps choked, and sails all blown away. At one o’clock on Sunday morning, being unable to beach her,, she was an chored about ten miles North of New Inlet bar, and five miles from land, where she sunk during the day in seven fathoms. The captain and crew left in the boat, and reached shore on yesterday morning , The schooner New Republic, Willets, from Phila delphia for this port, with a full cargo of merchan dize, went ashore on New Topsail inlet, on the morning of the 13th inst. G. W. Davis, Esq., consignee of schr. New Re public, (before reported ashore near New Topsail Inlet,) returned to town last night, and reports that on yesterday about two-thirds of the cargo was taken out, the larger portion of tvhich is in good condition ; and was carried over the beach to two small vessels inside, which will be brought to town without delay. More force had been sent to the wreck, and it is supposed that the balance will be gotten out to-day in a damaged state. Ves sel a total loss. Further advices from schrs. Emily Ward and Abdel Kader report both as being total loss; a portion of the cargo of the latter vessel has been saved. The Spanish brig Luzon, (of Belbao,) Captain Rafael de Urriz, from Havana for Falmouth, Eng land, with sugar and molasses, went ashore near New Topsail Inlet during the gale on Saturday night last; the Captain arrived here yesterday. Vessel and cargo supposed to be a total’loss. The sclir. Abdel Kader, Cornelius, trom this port for New York, with naval stores, is ashore near Rich’s Inlet, about twenty-five or thirty miles North of New Inlet Bar. We'learn that the Cap tain and crew had all reached shore. There is a brig ashore on the beach, near Bald Head, which will probably be gotten oft’; name unknown. Three or four small coasting vessels reported ashore near Smithville. The schooners Pearl and Albion, belonging in Onslow county, were blown ashore on the marsh in Buzzard’s bay, on Saturday last, and both will probably prove n total loss ; 'all hands saved. The barque J. W. Blodgett, Moore, previously reported as ashore near New Inlet bar, was gotten off on the 15th inst., by steamer Henrietta and towed up to town on Wednesday afternoon ; part of her sails were blown away, and she is in a leaky condition, and will have to discharge her cargo for repairs. Launch of the Great Eastern. The Canadian (London) News of the 2d instant, says it is authorized to state that the Great East ern steamship “will be launched in the lirst spring tides of next month (October.) The day is not as yet absolutely fixed, out this important event will probably take place on Monday, the sth of that month.’ The tides will be highest on that dav.” The same journal describes with minuteness a route of pleasure travel through the United States to Chicago and St. Louis, and which extended on the European Continent to Germany and Switzei* land, for which “Great Eastern tourist tickets" are to be provided. “ This tour can be accomplished, say from New York and back, in about eight weeks, including the two passages across the Atlantic ; but to those less pressed for time, it can be advantageously ex tended to from eleven to thirteen weeks. The cost of a first class tourist ticket for the whole excur sion, of a little under nine tnousand miles, will be about fifty-eight pounds sterling, or say two hun dred and eighty dollars. “Arrangements are also in progress for a more extended tour, which, in addition to the foregoing, and at an increased cost of about one hundred dol lars, will probably comprise Naples, Rome, Flo rence, Genoa, Turin and Milan, together with the passage across the AJps by Simplon." St. Lons, Sept. 17.—A large fire occurred yes terday on Eleventh street, near Market. Amoug the sufferers are Wm. Morris, and Wright A Co.; the former losing $60,000, and the latter $40,000. The other losses amount to $50,000. Washington, Sept. 17.—Commodore Foote, of the sloop-ot-war Portsmouth, dating at Siam, June 16, says that the treaties between Siam and Eng land, France and the United States, are rapidly developing the resources of Siam. Several ves sels were loading for the United States with sugar. W m. R. a alhoun, of South Carolina, is appoint ed Secretary of the Legation at Paris. Justice Curtis of the Supreme Court has been officially notified of the acceptance of his resigna tion. Maxims of Washington. We append below a few of Washington's “Prac -1 tical Maxims for the government of conduct in Society,” in the hope that they may interest, as well as prove useful to many young men among our readers : 1. Every action in company ought to be with some sign of respect to those present. 2. In the presence of others, sing not to your self with humming noise, nor drum with your lingers or feet. I 3. Speak not when others speak, sit not when others stand, wa ! k not when others stop. 4. Turn not your back to others, especially in speaking; jog not the table or desk on which another reads or writes; lean not on any one. 5. Be no flatterer, neither play with any one that delights not to be played with. 6. Read no letters, books, or papers in company, but when there is a necessity for doing it you must ask leave. Come not near the book or writings of any one so as te read them, unasked; also, look not nigh when another is writing a letter. 7. Let your countenance be pleasant, but in serious matters somewhat grave. 8. Show not yourself glad at the misfortune of another, though he were your enemy. 9. They that are in office have in all places precedence; but while they are young they ought to respect those that are their equals in birth or other qualities, though they have no public charge. 10. It is good manners to prefer them to whom we speak before ourselves, especially if they be above us, with whom in no sort, we ought to begin. 11. Let your discourse with men of business be short and comprehensive. 12. In visiting the sick, do not presently play the physician, if you be not knowing there in. 13. In writing or speaking, give to every person his due title, according to his degree and the custom of the place. 14. Strive not with your superiors in argument but always submit your judgement to others with modestv. 15. Undertake not to teach your equal in the art he himself professes, it savors of arrogancy. 16. When a man does ail lie can, though it succeeds not well, blame not him that did it. 17. Being to advise or reprehend any one consider whether it ought to be in public or in private, presently or some other time; also in what terms to do it, and in reproving, show no signs of eholer, but do it with sweetness and mildness 18. Mock not, nor jest at any thingof importance break no jests that are sharp or biting and if you deliver anything witty or pleasant, abstain from laughing thereat yourself. 19. Wherein you reprove another beunblameable yourself, for examle is more prevalent than precept. 20. Use no reproachful language against any one neither curses nor revilings. 21. Be not hasty to believe flying reports to the disparagement of any one. ' ’ 22. In your apparel be modest, and endeavor to accommodate nature rather than procure ad miration, Keep to the fashions of your equals, such as are civil and owlerly with respect to time and place. 23. Play not the peacock, looking everywhere about you to see if you be well decked, if your shoes lit well, if your stockings sit neatlv,' and clothes handsomely. 24. Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation, for it better to be alone than in bad company. 25. Let vour converstion be without malice or envy, for it is a sign ot a tractable aud commend able nature, and in all cases of passion admit reason to govern. 26. Be not immodest in urging your friend to discover a secret. 2i • Utter no base aud frivolous things amongst grown and learned men; nor every difficult ques tion or subject among ttie ignorant, nor things hard to be believed. 28. Speak not of doleful things in time of mirth, norat the table; speak not of melancholy things as death and wounds, and if others mention them’ change if you can, the discourse. Tell not vour dreams but to your intimate friends. 29. Break not a jest where none take pleasure in mirth. Laugh not aloud, nor at all without occa sion. Deride no man’s fortune though there seems to be some cause. 30. Speak not injurious words, neither in jest or earnest. Scoff at none, although they give occasion 31. Be not forward, but friendly aud courteous, the first to salute, hear and answer, and be not pensive when it is a time to converse. 32. Detract not from others, but neither be excessive in commending. 33. Go not thither, where you know not whether you shall be welcome or not. Give not aduce without being asked, and wheu desired, do it briefly. 34. If two contend together, take not the part of either unconstrained, and be not obstinate in your opinion; in things indifferent be of the major side. 35. Reprehend not the imperfections of others, for that belongs to parents, master, and superiors. 36. Gaze not on the marks or blemishes of others, and ask not how they came. What you speak in secret to your friends, deliver not before others. 37. .Speak not in an unknown tongue in corn pany, but in your own language; and that as those of quality do, and not as the vulgar. Sublime matters treat seriously. 38. Think before you speak ; pronounce not im perfectly, nor bring out your words too hastily, but orderly and distinctly’. From the X. A. Journal of Commerce. Only One Page of a Ledger. The experience of our money market for the last fortnight has been severe enough to burn in some useful lessons on the memory, and vet, judg ing from the past, these will probably be forgotten as soon as we are once more out of the breakers. It is well, therefore, while our calamities are sore upon us, that we should follow the advice of Cap tain Cuttle, and make notes of them. If our mer chants should devote a single page of the ledger to the posting up of the errors and burdens of which they are now so sensible, they might find it at some future day to be the most profitable account in the whole alphabet. “August 18th, 1857.—Refused discounts al bank. Could’nt raise money to pay duties, and obliged to warehouse a valuable importation of goods. Cashier says come again next offering day. 21st.— Went and found matters ten times worse. Haw the President, who told me I deserved to be pinch ed for importing so heavily, and that 1 needn’t come there again for six weeks. Couldn’t discount a dollar. Concluded to call on B. and borrow a tew thousands. Found note on my desk from B. begging me to lend him some money, or he would break. Tried C. Same luck. 22d.—Pitched out at another bank. Customers in, wanting to see that fresh importation. Spent three hours trying to borrow enough to pay duties. No success! 24.—Ohie Life and Trust Company failed. Tried to sell paper in the streets at three per centum a month. No buyers. Fortunately remittance from (he West —know the post-mark—Jones is a good fellow. Draft five thousand dollars—ox the True! Company! 25.—Note on collaterals due at bank Couldn’t get it renewed for a dollar. Made temporary loan. Stocks down twenty per centum. Best securities unsaleable at half price. 26th. Loan called in. Begin to feel choakv in the throat. No appetite. Tried to sell out' my im portation of dry goods at twenty per cent. less. Nobody any money to buy. Went home sick. 27th.—Resolved never to put myself in the power of the banks again. Miserable institutions. Spent the whole day trying to borrow, and barely es caped protest. My own notes sunk in my face at three per cent, a month. Overheard nbrokersay, “You're a gone man, if you can’t take your own paper at that price.” Feel very much so, but going to keep a stiff' upper lip. 28th.—Four bankers failed. Times worse than in 1887. Feet sore with running about to raise money. Can’t collect a dollar from the country. Everybody out on the same business—all borrowers, no lenders. Desk full of bills receivable, perfectly useless. Specie line of the banks down to nine millions. Wish I’d never seen a piece of foreign dry goods. Would have been as easy as an old shoe if I had not im ported. I had no business to build that new house ; the old one good enough. Ought to have been content with the moderate things, and lived on half the money. Store rent too high. Obliged to spread out too much on credit to pay expenses. 29th.—Neighbor failed—bank failed—friend calls to ask if the rumor of my failure was true. Ait black with foul reports. Half-past two P. M., ac counts overdrawn and notes unpaid. With a page like this occasionally to fall open before him, as he looks ever his ledger, a man might become a more prudent dealer, and learn to give up the am bition of displav for the sake of moderate success, an easy digestion and sound sleep. He might learn aLo to trace his misfortunes to their real source, instead of charging them on banks; for, happily, a man may govern his own affairs suc cessfully, in spite of the faults of their adminis tration. Loss of the Steamer Norlolk. We regret to statethat this steamer, Capt. Kelly, which left Philadelphia for this city on Saturday last, was lost, together with the entire cargo, in the heavy gale of Sunday last. Information was received here yesterday that none of the crow were lost, and the inference is that the passengers are also saved. The Norfolk was a strong and well built boat, capable of carrying a large amount of freight, aud was deeply laden with goodsfnr this city, Ac.,‘hav ing on board for Norfolk and Portsmouth alone, freight amounting to one hundred thousand dol lars—a large portion of which was not insured. One house in this city had on board silks, cloths, Ac., to the amount of ten thousand dollars which, we regret to state, was not insured. _ We learn there was na insurance on the boat. The particulars of the disaster will probably be re ceived to-day.— Norfolk Argus, Sept. 17. [communicated.] Cedar Creek Academy. Hart County, Sept. 10, 1 b-' 7. Mr. Ediyor— Dear Sir: To-day we had the pleasure of witnessing the examination of the pupils of Ctdar Creek Academy, and never in our lives have re witnessed such a display of talent as manifestid bv the young men on this occasion*. We had original speeches from the young men in which they exhibited such talent as is sel dom found in our country schools. Their speeches were wellcomposed, well delivered, and reflected honor on themselves and their worthy instructor. This school is in the charge of Mr. Hamilton, a gentlemtn of the highest qualifications, and wor thy the laudable post assigned him, and we can safely recommend him to the friends of education, and say tothem if they wish their sons and wards educated ii a moral and health}* community, send them to Cedar Creek Academy. A. Hast Fo.nd Looks. —When a lady (we are talking of a lady in the full height and breadth of fashion) has got her bonnet and gloves on, and is perfect ly ready with her parasol in hand, she always goes back to the looking-glass to take a last fond look. Upon our asking a dear handsome duch ess if this want not the truth, she had the charm ing candor to state: “ Yes, my dear Punch, it is the truth, but not all the truth. No woman, take my word for it, is satisfied with one look. At least l know* that 1 am not, for (and here our duchess laughed, as though she was pleased with herself and all the world) I don’t rniud telling you, 1 invariably take four, four good ones. The first look in the glass is for myself, that’s fair; the sec ond is for my husband, that’s nothing but just; the third is for my friends, that’s only generous ; and the last is for my rivals, that’s human nature. If the last look satisfies me, then I know it is all right, and I assure you 1 never take any more.” London Punch. We deeply regret to learn that a private dispatch was received here from Memphis, yesterday even ing, announcing that the mind of Gen. Wm. Has kell has become greatly unsettled. It is feared he is approaching insanity.— Nashville Daily Gazette. 53 f~ Yl' La lie’s Vermifuge in Texas.—Hear what the Proprietor of the Star Hotel has to na) r of the wonderful effects of M’Lane’s Vermifuge : Stau Hotel, Centbeville, Texas, Aug. 22, ISM. Messrs. Fleming Bros.—l feel it my duty to make the fol lowing statement: Several of my children have been unwell for the last week or two. I called at the “ Big Mortar” to get some Oil of Wormseed and other truck, to give them for worms. The Druggist recommended M’Lane’s Vermifuge, prepared by you, but having, heretofore, tried every Vermifuge in my know iug without advantage, 1 told him it was not worth while, as my children appeared proof against them all. He said to take a bottle, and offered if it done no good to refund the money. To satisfy him I done so, and the effect was so much better than expected that I got another bottle, and the result was most astonishing. Three of my children discharged a great number of the largest worms lever saw. To a young man, my Mail Carrier , who was weak, puny and poor as a snake, for a month or so, 1 gave two doses, which brought from him at least a pint of what is called stomach worms! Strange as this may appear, yet it is as “true as preaching How the boy stood it so long as he did, with ten thousand “Bots” gnawing at hla stomach, is the greatest wonder to me. All these cases are now doing well. No doubt the lives of thou sands of children haye been saved by the timely use of tills ex traordinary medicine. Dent fail to give it a trial. THOS. R.
