Tho Approaching Qr&OTnatorial
The Democratic Convention which Assem
bles in this place on the 15th of June, has bnt
one duty to perforin. It is so plain and pal
pable no mistake can be made, unless some
men for personal or sectional purposes shall
endeavor to throw in to it new and outside is
sues, as to which the people have not been
consulted, and upon which no county meeting
has expressed an opinion.
We see the names of several men in the list
of delegates appointed, wlio have been riding
a hobby of their own for months, and who
may endeavor to contuse and divide the con
vention by agitating issues to the members of
the Convention by the people who appointed
them.
From the tone of public sentiment—from
tho expression of the Democracy in more than
half of the counties of the State, it is unques
tionably true that the Convention has but a
singlo duty to perform —that is, to re-nominate
Jos. E. Brown for Governor of Georgia. Let
tho Convention do this, and adjourn. We !
want no new platform to tight this battle up
on:—we have a platform of ettfs—the admin- I
istration of Gov. Brown —and that is broad I
enough, high enough, long enough, strong ;
enough, to bold every man who admires a
faithful, able and honest discharge of public
duty.— Ee I. Union.
The Democratic Executive Com-
MITTEE.
A dispatch from Washington, of May 11th.
and published in the Baltimore Sun. contains
the following in reference to the Democratic
National Executive Committee:
Judge Smalley, of Vermont, chairman, and i
Hon. Clement L. Vallandigham, of Ohio, sec
retary of the Democratic National Executive
Committee, have to-day, by virtue of the pow
er given to them in the premises, concluded to
call a meeting of the cammittcc about the 7th
of December next, formal notice of which will
be publis ed in October. This committee will
fix the time for the assembling of tho Dctno
cruic National Convention of Charleston,
which will probably bo toward tho close
of April or early in May, 1860.
The members of the executive committee arc
the same a- those appointed by the Cincin
nati con ven 1 ii—a member of each State. It
will bo r< inmeiided to the Democracy of the
Slate- .i.'in ■ J , th< Union since 1856, to
appoint members of the exc utive committee.
It may be meutione 1 that tho meeting of Messrs
Smalley and Vallandigham in Washington
was accidental : and they agreed, after a brief
personal interview, on what tbev bad proposed
to effect by correspondence. This is the first
official movement in behalf of the executive
committee since tho adjournment of the Cin
cinnati conven'ion.

“ One noitrt of erent interest to the United
States is involved in this possible complication ;
of European aft*lira. Sonin will be brought j
under the dominion of France, and France,
before she nets through with the assumed war
with England, will need monev. Cf course
she will sol] Cuba to the United States for a
hundred millions, and as much more as we may
be willing to g’ve.
“The administration are. it is believed, fnllv

quisition of Cuba, and our European diploma
cy will ho at once directed to that end. and
not without some tope that it will lie effective
before the termination of the next session of

The Experiment of FreeNegroism.—James
Ttedpath has recently been on a visit to the
Negro Republic of Hayti, and in writing a se
ries of articles for the New York Tribune,
which gives a most unfavorable account of the .
morals and the condition of the people of
country. Mr. Redpatli’s account of the low
state of morals is truly deplorable. He says
marriage is almost unknown. Promiscuous
association degrades neither the man nor wo
man in the estimation of society. The corres- |
pondent says the doctrine of free love, ns ap
plicable to the present condition of society,
has bad free scope there for many years, and
a more utterly demoralizing system, or one
better adapt’d to drive out all purity there is
from the ear'll, can scarcely be conceived
of-
Hail Storm.
We have been informed that a hail storm I
passed over the neighborhood of Friar's Pond •
and Briar Creek. Burke co nty, on Sunday
evening last; which a gentleman some seven,
ty years of age ays was the most violent he
ever saw. The stones are represented as be- i
ing very large. The cournsof the storm was ’
not given : but we hope it was contracted in •
its limits.— Aug. Const.

Wholesale Desertions.—Sir Charles Na
pier says that thirteen thousand sailors have
deserts I the British naval service within three '
years; an 1 tin with inure than $130,000 1
due them. So long as the brutal practice of flog- ]
ging seamen is continued, it will be a difficult

Sever© Storm
A very severe form of rain, wind, thunder
and lightning, passed over our city on yester- ,
day afternoon, about .fifteen or twenty minutes I
past five o’clock, doing some injury in its
course. Its duration was not very great, but
the lightning was most vivid, and the fall of
rain veary heavy.
A dwelling house on Ellis, between Centre
and Elbert streets, wns struck by lightning.
I during the storm. The electric fluid was first
attracted by a tall poplar tree on the South
side of the building; chipping a small piece off
the tree, it glanced into a sitting room, tore
otf the sash casings of some of the windows,
broke a few panes of glass, nnd filled the room
with smoke. Jfbst fortunately, there was no
person in the room at the time, and, therefore,
no farther injury was done, save the stunning
for a moment, of a lady in the house.
On Telfair street, near the corner of Jackson,
wc observed a large tree torn up by the roots,
by the force of the wind.
At the stable of Walker & Son, on Mclntosh
' street, a valuable bay horse, belonging to Mr.
, James W. Walker, was killed by the light-
I ning.
Wo have also been informed that the liglit-
I ning struck in one or two other parts of the
city, and that it played strange antics on some
of the lightning rods; but we heard of no se
rious personal injury.
Hie course of the storm was from West to
East, and was one of tho most violent that has
been witnessed here, we believe for some
time — Aug. Constitutionalist May 18th.

A MAX BYTNG TWICE.
A man diol in the Seventeenth Ward a dav
or two ago. who might bo said to have died
once before, and recalled to life bv a singular
circumstance. He bad suffered for a long time
from consumption, and grown weaker and
weaker, and more nnd more attenuated, until
he could not stand uor speak. lie felt that he
had but a few days to live, and made every
preparation for approaching dissolution. His
: wife watched beside him, and one morning be
beckoned to her to put her head to his lips,
when be whispered, “I am going, Jane.” and
took her hand.
A slight snasni passed through his frame ;
a deadly pallor overspread his face; his eyes
rolled upward, and tho rattle of death was
heard in his throat. At that moment his wife
screamed, and be started up with a new vigor,
and asked faintly, “Why did you do that. —
Why did you not let me die in peace'.”
From that moment lie began to recover and
grow strong, and in a month was enabled to
leave bis bed and work at his trade. He lived
('Sr nearly two years after that strange event,
iVit finally was attacked w'th a return of his
old complaint, and died after an illness of three
months.
This is a very singular instance, hut entire
j ly true, and would seem to show that the soul
of the dying man was culled back by the voice
of a living heart, lingered for a while longer
ere it left a kindred nature to battle with the
world alone. Cincinnati Enquirer.
The Monster Steamer.—Bell in his “Year
Book,” says:
It is contended that the Leviathan, withall
' her misfortunes, is constructed on the securest
• principles, the cellular system introduced by
Mr. Brunel being the great source of her
strength it is calculated that she rould stand
the thest of being suspended upon the two ex
treme points of stem and stern, with all her
machinery on board ; or she might be poised
upon a point in the middle, like a scale-beam,
without fracture or injury t< the material of
whieh she is composed. She would dash aside
the surge of the Atlantic at a speed of eighteen
or twenty miles an hour.

has given her vote against the re-opening of
the African slave trade. Kentucky will give
her vote against it, and if necessary, her hemp.

A New Game.
“Pool" is a game extravagantly indulged in
;at Buffalo. The game is played on a billiard
| table, with twenty or thirty balls, each ball
numbered, the numbers running from one up.
A dozen or more can join in the game. Acer-
number is fixed upon, and the player who
' shall first pocket enough balls whose numbers
will amount to it, wins the pile, which is made
up by the players staking a certain amount
each before the game commences. Previous
• to the commencement, each player draws a
marble from a box and puts it out of sight in
I his pockeet. Those marbles nre all numbered
to correspond with numbers on the table. The
i player, after receiving his marble, recollects
' the number, and his game is to pocket balls
I enough, the numbers of which added to that of
I the tn i-ble in his pocket will make the nnm
\ her which wins the pile.
Th? “Republic” tells a pood story of an nd
i venture nn old pent passionately fond of “pool”
■ bad. a few niphts apo. Tie is occasionally piv- j
■ co io ctianee in other games, it is intimated, j
Well, he enme home very late from a siege at ,
j “pool.” His wife was asleep. When she ti
i woke in the morning she found upon the floor. .
i a marble which bad droped ont of her hns
j band's pocket when lie came to bed, upon 1
which were the figures “17.” “What is this!’
i said she to her lord. Lord opened his eyes ’
looked, bln-hed. wns confused, and stammered
“why—why—it's a marble, ain’t it?” “Yes,”
said she. “but what are yon doing with a mar
ble in yonr pocket ?” “In my pocket!—well
—nh ! —the fact is. I’ve had that marble in my
pocket for the last thirty-fi-e years—ever since
• I used to play for keeps with Bill .” “In- •
deed !” incredulously asked his wife—but what !
are these figures on here for? what does 17
mean ?” said he hesitatingly—“Oh! 17? —why
I that was the number of marbles Bill owed me
when we quit playing, lie marked it on there
!so I wonld'nt forget it.” The old fellow had
I a narrow escape, and hasn't played any more
I “pule” since.

Umist? Because she makes a great deal of

‘A name which is in every one’s mouth should

Italian language do not all have the same
sounds which they have in English. The pro
nunciation of this name is Teechecno. It is a
small river, connecting the Lake of Maggiore -
with the I’o, and has its importance from its be- |
ing the boundary between Lombardy and Sar

Borax for Washing.—Powdered borax, at
the rate of ft large handful td ten allons of
I water, is used in Belgium by nearly all the
I washerwomen, and by large laundries, who
prefer it to soda, as less injurious to tlie fab
rics. In fact, it is said that borax, being ft nen- •
tral salt, does not injure tho t, .ture of linen
in the slightest degree ; yet it ! s the effect of
softening the hardest water, s > t! t not more
than half the soap is roouhed. In washing
laces and fine linens, such as are proverbially
very white in Holland nnd Belgii ■ •. the wo
men are said to use borax in in ' ' -er quan
tity than above indicated. N-ooe borax is
found in Persia, and it al-o inn :te ’ from In
dia; and it is manufactured by combining bo
racic acid 69 with soda 82, combined with wa
ter in crystalization. Refined ••rnx. such as
is sold in the shops is not expensive, and it
may be a valuable assistance to the washerwo
man. Let her carefully test itseffi 1 1 upon the
