[COM M t SICATED. |
The Late Democratic Conven-
TION.
To James A. St.edge, Esq., Editor of the
“Athens Banner,” •
Sii■.— \s you were present at the Demo
cratic C invention recently held in the city of
Milledgeville, I am perhaps right in assuming
you to be the author of the article alluding to
that < .invention which appeared in the issue
of your paper of the 23d inst. lam certainly
warranted in addressing you in relation to the
misrepresentations contained in that article, a-
I was a delegate to that conven ion and one of
the • handful of malcontents” at whom you
have been pleased to make a most malicious
and unjustifiable fling. Alluding to these last,
you use the following language which may be
regarded a chef ffouvre so- frosty impertinence
and deliberate assertion:
“A mere handful of malcontent®, wh- ante
there for the purpose of defeating any action
io regard to the Federal Administration, or
breaking the convention tin in a row. create.'
uch “no’ e and confusin'- ’>.*t for a time it
was impossible to procc d w '• h any regularity.
But the consent. live element of theconventioi
finallv forced a fair vote upon the res .lutim
endorsing the adtnini- fra.ion of Ar. Bu.-han
an, excepting his p.flicv upon the Tariff and
the Pacific railroad, and then ibe real strength
of the gentlemen who had made such a hub
bub was aeon. There were tii ! votes in . vot
'd the administration and 34 against—ma
jority of 3401 ’
A perusal of the whole extract will convince
the most careless reader that the “male.intents’
referred to were the “thirty-four” wh voted
against the resolutions endorsing the patriot
ism of .Mr. Buchanan and his ability as an
essayist upon affairs of State: but a mos l
thorough scrutiny and study of the full report
of the proceedings of the convention, will fa’l
to impress any clear intellect or impartial
judgment that the gentlemen who had the
honor to compose the thirty-four, had attended
the convention with the intention of breaking
it up, if their views upon Federal reln'io
were not endorsed, or that they were respons'-
Ide fir the “noise and confusion” which oc. ti
red at the opening of the debate.
A- one of the thirty-four and in behalf’ f
the thirty-three with whom I had the h< io •
act, 1 fed authorized to pronounce y ur •‘o '
ment unfounded in fact, ami an unju®' ami Il
liberal imputation upon gentlemen wh. ®e e
curds in behalf of Democratic principles w.n.’
lose no lustre by comparison ev'it with y n
own.
The published proceedings of the i onvi : i
will bear me out in the assertion wl '. It v u
know to betrue that, the ’noise and e nfusb.n’
was occasioned bv a .premature and inf ma’
organization of the assembly, a® wa- ’tt'el by
its Presiding officer.
The next assertion is mot by a flat de ,i:tl
which, unfortunately for you. appears in anoth
er column of your paper. I refer to the res. -
lotion itself, from which it will be seen that
the “conservative element” were unable to get
what they desired ; that the administration of
Air. Buchanan was not endorsed-. ami that be
himself was merely rewarded with a slight
patting on the back for his pa’riotism ; a com
plimentary notice of his ability a® a writer.
< upon which from his late speech at Chapel
Hill it seems he rather plumes himself) ami an
unmistakeable intimation that the Georgia De
mocracy expect him henceforth to stand by
what he writes.
1 our statement in relation to the stren th ot
the gentlemen who “made the hubbub” i
about equal in fairness to those upon which 1
have already commented. In order to show
this it will be necessary to make public a por
tion of the history of the conventii n whi< h
even a stenographic reporter could not reach.’
and if in doing so 1 expose some things un
pleasant to yourself and sonic of the “-conser
vative clement,” I trust you will remember
that you have made an attack upon tli .se who
will not quietly allow their characters ami mo
tives to be impugned.
1 ou arc aware that the only question likely
t< have disturbed the harmony of 'he conven
tion was the endorsement of the present Fed
■ral Administration. 1 say you were aware of
this, for you endeavored to c mvince those upon
whom you inflict the rending of your inane
effusions .upon Conserve ive Nationality in
iceel.lfi <1 that the Administrate n was wor-
thy of endorsement, and that notw distancing
an ominous silence upon the part of the Geor
gia Democracy— broken only by a couple of
faint sighs from your own district, the late
home of the head of the Treasury Department
'he party in convention would endorse it.—
Agreeably t<. this programme your immediate
representative atttended the convent on. and f
in the security of conscious strength and the f
anticipation of an easy victory, rejected a re- i
solution offered by one of the thirty-four, which j
was fu.lcr, stronger, and more emphatic than I
that passed by the convention. 1 need not re '
mini you or any one else who wit- present, .
how earnestly he begged the small boon contained
in the resolution passed, or the classical and
feeling allusi. ns made by him in relation to
the method of procuring the fruit iudigeueous I
to his section of the country ; f„r those who '
saw his earnest face and heard hi- pleading '
tones would not sooner have l,„k,d upon h nt i

A Tale of Horror.
About thirty Jmars ago, Mr. Joseph St. C'laii
built a cabin in Arkansas, fur up toward be
head waters 0 White River. It was then all
a wilderness country for many miles around,
and game was very abundant. There vasno :
lack of I are, calami unts, wolves and pan
thers. in fact, that country was at that date, :
a perfect paradise for the practiced hunter.
Mr. St. Clair had 110 family other than a
v. ung wife and one infant. lie was fond of
hunting, but he cultivated a few acres in corn i
and vegetables. At first it was fully ten miles
to the nearest neighbors, but during the en.-u- ,
ing spring a man named Williams made a set
tlement, within half a mile ot St. Clair’s, and i
the two fa nilies became neighbors and quite
intimate.
Mr. Williams was a man in humble circum
stances and hud a large family, mostly of grown
daughters, and no small children One day
in the m nth of July, 1929, (the first summer ;
ihat Mr. Si. Clair lived there.) his wife was at -
home with the child, and Mr. St. < luir was ott
with hi. gum About lit o chick in tu.o morn- ,
( ing she left her babe asleep in the eradle. and
I went to the fieid to gather beans for dinner. —
Ou her re.urn the child was gone. She, how
ever, fell 11 alarm, because she supposed that
her busbund had conic home during her ab
' seiice. and had hidden somewhere about the
house with the child, merely for a little fun.—
So she busied herself in preparing dinner
In an hour or two her husband .eturjied from
the woods, bearing the gun and a young leer
; that he had killed, and on inquiry declare
that he knew nothing of die ch Id.
They now supposed tha one of Mr. Wil
liams’daughters had c me in while Mrs. S-.
Clair was out, and find.ng the baby ot which
she was very fond, she carried it home. This
theory was to tliYm quite satisfactory, for there
was no other neighbors, and the child could
not go awuy, unless curried. 11 w else ci uld
it have happened ?
Dinner he.ng over, Mr. Si. Clni walked ovei
t<> his neighbor's, to bring back his treasure ot
a baby that .1/ -s Lucy had borrowed that in ru
ing. Mss Lucy said that she had not borrow-
I ed the baby—she had not seen it ’bat day. —
Mr. St. Clair was hard to be e.-tiv iriceii that no
| one of the fam’ly had taken the child, but all
assured him that they knew nothing i f it.
It was now time t be alarmed. "What has
l ev.me of the poor . hild?” was his exclanta
t'on, utnl he ran back home in great agony.—
The tni.th. r in like manner was almost frantic !
Tin y could not conceive who had taken away
j tite r child.
Mr. Williams’ fam’ly joined in the grief, but
1 c.-uld i.ff rd it., aid—no consolation. They
i could invent no theory, n ir devise any plan by
! which the child Lad, with any degree of prob
ability, disappeared. Who was there to take
it nwtt- I Whv would any one wish to have
I .
it? They were utterly at a loss.
Finally it was remembered that occasionally
there were parties of Cherokees hunting
i through that country. It was now surmised
that they had happened to c me to the house
' while Mrs. St. C. was in the fi Id. and had sto
len the child and carried it away. This w>s
at once r< eeived as plausible and quite proba
ble.
Early next tu riling Mr. St. Clair and Mr.
Williams set ut to seek for the Ind an camp,
1 and Mrs. St. C. was left alone nt home. She
| was sitting in silence, weening tears of bitter
n igit sb. such as none but mothers ever shed,
and w tidering in het heart what had become
.1 her darling babe. It was now about the
li ur -f the day on which she, the day previ
ous had gone out. Ere she was aware a large
panther, with a steal.hy trend, came to the
door an I looked toward the cradle. Mrs. Si.
Clair screamed and he ran away. Tlielearlul
uu'b was m.w apparent, mid li” m w light ha
ever been ctis' upon the subject.

Inter naticnal Law-Conflict of
MONARCHY AAD DF.MOi RAt Y.
Several Europenn journals have suggested
that the existingi i mplicutions and tn üblcs on
that continent w ill be pretty certain to involve ;
America sooner or later, and it is said that the
next European Congress that assembles wil
not be content with the mere recommendations
of the late (Paris) Congress, to abolish priva- .
teering, but will incorporate it as a principle .
of maratime and international law, and priva
teering shall be totally suppreseed, and put
into the category of ordinary piracy. The
truth is, the European system —except in
France—is in total i nnflict with our own and 1
" imernational law,” as often declared by the
J late General Quitman, but little better than
international nonsense. It is quite possible
that the war now begun in Italy will end with
a radical change, nut merely of treaties, nation
al bounihtries, Ac., but in the European system
of political society, and instead of the old se
mi-feudal institutions which now prevail all
over, except in France, that a Dem .cratic sys
tem may become universal, even in Russia ;
for Democracy may temporarily burnt.mi. e ve
ry well with imperialism, as we now wit tes
in Fiance. And should this result foDi.w.
s. 111 thing like a sensible and consistent inter
national system of law might be made availa
ble fi r the w hole of Christendom.
But if the 1 alian war should bring on an
other conflict like that of 1813. when the old
niona. ehies combined together to crush out Na
poleunism, and picserve the principle of hered
itary rule, and end. as that did. in patching up
the old system, then it is certain that at no dis
taut day a conflict must arise between Hie new
world and the old—the American system and
■ and the old European order—that will pet haps
involve us with must of the European powers.
' While we were a young and comparatively un
known people, the contradiction did not display

It is the bona fide, L ng asserted and well un

ourselves. Then are many things where we
can harm nize with Europe on the principles

the subject, and provide means for the execu

A poison of any conceivable description and

The F* uit Season.
The season tor trait baling arrived, we feel
that a few practical suggestions wi nld be ac
ceptable to 01’tr readers, who may desire to
ship peaches, Ac., to their friends, or for mar
ket at the North, or in adjacent cities.
Beaches for transportation should be pick
' ed before tairly ripe, and packed so riiat the
air may have tree Recess from all sides, and
the cases or boxes so well fitted as to prevent
the tinlt trom rolling loostiy.
The I*. st mode w< have seen, is, to make a
box to hold one and a half or two bushels—
I about the shape ot a lemon box—torined of
-lat® naded to solid end pieces with center
board, of same size a® ends, the slats n iled so
closely a® to prevent the fruit fiom being lost
or abstract'd, y et leaving tree access for air on
all sides. The Adams Express, seeming ever
desirous to meet the w ants ot the public, have,
we learn, imide extensive nrrungemeiits for
forwarding and delivering this kind of freight
at rates greatly below the customary charges
1 tor Expre«s transportation.
Ihe 1 nltivation of fruits and early vegeta
bles tor northern market having grown to be
a profitable source ot revenue to our farmers
at.d gardener® we have taken the trouble to
enquire and inform ourselves a® to the best
manner and nieans for them to secure die prof

A Tale of Horror and Crime iu
KENTUCKY.
We are informed by ft gentleman from Hen
derson ot one of the most deepl* tragical events
that has ever occurred in our State.
Some time ago, Dr. A. J. Morrison, of that
place, was prosecuted for forgery, and desi
rotis of revenging himself on the prosecuting
attorney, who was active in all the measures
against him, lie attempted to procure his deatl
by poison. For this purpose, lie employe'
Harrison, a negro waiter at the Hancock house
and e' gaged his services to consumate his dev
"lish intentions. The servant was to plan
the prusic acid in the coflee of Mr. John E.
Arnold, but instead of fidtilling the arrange
ment. he informed Mr. A. of the conspirac,
igainst bis life.
Not discouraged by his first failure, Dr.
Morrison gave the negro another dose of tin
deadly poison to place in a plate ot raspberries
which he was to band Mr. Arnold. But tin
honest servant boy again informed, and thei
arrangements were made tor the detection of
this worse than Borginn conspiration. At n
i certain time he was to give Harrison a third
! portion, evidencing a cool and malicious de
termination to destroy the attorney for tb<
Commonwealth. In order that l.is villainy
might be thoroughly exposed to competent
witnesses and his hellish plans completely
I frustrated, a hole was bored through the ceil
-1 mg, that persons in the upper chamber mil’ll*
notice what was going on below without be
ng observed. The plan proved entirely suc
cess id. Morrison was seen to hand the ne
gr • the poison and give him instructions con-
I cerning it. The rascal was immediatly seized
on Thursday and confined in jail.
Thus providentially was this base attempt
! against the life of a valued and efficient officer
of the Commonwealth foil d.
But the denouement ot the tragedy remains
to be unfolded. Morrison, overcome by the
weight ot testimony against him and appre
hending violence ftoin the bands of an outrag
ed and excited populace, committed suicide on
Sunday morning, lie procured a knife, and
after cutting his throat severed the main arte
ry ot his leg. When found, he was dead, lit
erally w eltering in his blood. The remains of
Dr. Morrison were brought to Louisville Sun
day evening, ami thence shipped by railroad
to Springfield, Illinois, where he has connec
tions. — Louisville Dem., June 22.
Terrific Tornado in Gloucester
COUNTY, VA.
Norfolk. June 21.—AUrrible tornado pas
sed over Gloucester county on Friday last.—
Its track was from east to west; it was fun
nel shaped, and is represented as having been
about one hundred feet wide. When first seen
it was coming from the direction of the Bay ;
it then entered the mouth of York river and
passed over Gloucester Point, which is imme
diately oppositethe famous little town of A ork.
As it w hirled past the Point it upset the ferry
boat, and an old negro num, who for thirty
years had managed the ferry, was drowned:
his assistant escaped by clinging to the* boat.
It then took its course through the country,
meeting first the residence of Capt. Win. Hob
day, Sear's Creek, it speedily demolished the
chimneys and all prominent projections, blew
his large barn from its foundation; a smaller
barn was blown over; all the other houses, and
even the fruit trees were upset and destroyed
while a very large tree near the barn was torn
up bv the roots.
A large barn and shed on the farm of Mr.
Benj. Howe, were torn literally to pieces; a
corn shelter which was in this house, was af
terwards found half a mile off, where it had
been carried by the “storm king.”
A gentleman named Diggs saw it coming,
and hud presence of mind t ’take his wife and
little ones out of the house, which in a few mo
ments afterwards was swept entirely away.—
Mr. Diggs subsequently found a trunk, belong
ing to him. five miles from where the house
had stood. This trunk among other things
contained Sl3O.
A school house was blown over, and the
teacher (Miss Glass) and fourteen children
t rued over with it. Mi s Glass received some
injuries abou' the head, white one of the chil
dren had its collar bone broken.
In addition to the above, we learn that nine
other buildings —mostly dwellings—were des
troyed, blown away or materially damaged,
among which was the dwelling of Mr. Rob
bins. which has sustained considerable dam
age. The tornado, which was represented as hav
ing been trighttully destructive, cut a perfect
road through the woods, about thirty or forty
yards wide, and in its c>u e wrong tri.. i from
their stumps which will measure from two to
three feet in diameter, and which were swept
before it like chaff before the wind.
It is reported that at one time a human form
was seen in the midst of this terrible whirl
wind, who, without power to help himselt was
borne upon the wings ot the wind, from the
river side, far into the interior, while all around
him were trees, limbs of trees, loose plank
posts, carts, barn doors and portions of fen
ces.
There is no doubt but the destruction of life
has been considerable, but the gentleman who
brings this information was on the river, and
knows not what occurred in the interior.—

Fashlorable Women.
Fashion kills more women than sorrow.—
Obedience to tashion is a greater transgression
of the laws <>f woman's nature, a greater injn
l ry to her physical and mental constitution,
than the hardships of poverty and neglect.—
The slavewoman at her tasks will live and
grow old. and see two or three generations of
her mistresses fade and pass away. The wash
erwoman with scarce a ray of hope to cheer
her in her toils, will live to see all her fashion
able sisters die around her. The kitehentnaid
is hearty and strong, while her lady has to be
nursed like a sick baby. It is a sad truth that
fiishi"H-p:impered women are almost worthless
! for all the great ends of human life. They have
but little force of character; they have still less
power of moral will and quite as little energy.
They live for no great purpose in life ; they ac
complish no worthy ends. They are only doll
forms in the hands o milliners and servants,
to be dressed ami fed to order. They dre’s
nobody, bless nobody, and save nobody. They
write no books and set no example* of virtue
and womanly lite. If they rear children, ser
vants and nurse do all. save to conceive and
give them birth. And when reared, what rea
they? \Vlmt do they amount to. but weaker
scions ot the stock ? Who ever heard of a
fas ionabte woman's child exhibiting any vir- I
tne or pow er of mind, for w liicb it became em '
ineut I Read the biographies ofottr great and I
good men and women. Not one of them had
u tashioimble mother. They nearly all sprang
from strongmindeil women, w ho hud about as
little to do w <tL fashion, as with the changing
clouds.

An Excursion Train in Danger
On Saturday evening last almut eighty of
he citizens of Chicago, wh had been on the
•xcursion to Cincinnati, started from that city
n t e In lianapolis and Cincinnati express
rain bound homeward. Everything went on I
smoothly till about fifteen minutes past nine
'’clock, when the passengers felt a severe shock
md a most disagreeable jarring sound, follow
ed by a slight tipping over of the cars, when
lie train came to a full stop. The cars were
ff the track, and on examination it was found I
hat some miscreant had placed two logs of
eavv pieces of timber right across the track. (
rhe one about ten rods apart from the other.— I
I'he first log did it work —the other being left
intouchod. Fortunately, and nr st wonderful ,
o record, none of the passi ngers were injured.
I'he engineer and firemen were thrown sew- (
al nils from the engine, and were somewhat
hough not seriously injured. How they es
•aped is a miracle, for the engine was coin- I
detely stripped and landed in the ditch a per- '
ect wreck.
After it was found no one was injured the j
passengers met in council to investigate the ;
• ause of the accident: and upon evidence fur
nislied by several parties who lived in the
neighborhood, suspicion was thrown on a man
named William Ford, who lived about two hun
dred yards from the place where the accident
occurred. It appears that a short time previ
ous he had two calves kilted by a train, and
ever since he had threatened to be revenged. —
It was also a suspicious fact, that while all his
neighbors came down to the track as soon as
they heard the crash, he did not make bis ap
pearance. After some consultation, it was
thought advisable to send for him to come down,
to “ assist in relieving the sufferings of some
parties who were injured,” but he informed
the deputation that lie could render them no
i assistance. They .a-k him for “an axe to cut
■ out the en inc,” but he replied that he “ had
no axe.” This depu'ation returned, and an
• other and a large one was sent to “bring him
i down.” This time he consented ; but not be-
I fore he had fully armed himself and another
■ man who worked for him, with revolvers and
■ knives. A few questions wereasked him shout
f the logs lound on the track, but he gave n -at-
isfactory answers, and proceeded at once to try
1 and prove an alibi by his man. His equivoca
tions and replies not bung satisfactory, upon
a given signal, the men were Secured and their
pockets searched. In the breast pocket of Ford
’ was found a six shooter, full loaded, and on his
man were found a single-barrelled rifle pistol.
■ also loaded and a bowie knife. Among the
passengers there was a strong disposition to
• " lynch” the men on the spot, but as no one
’ was seriously injured, it was decided to ake
1 them to Indianapolis and lodge them in jail,
where they were left in the morning.
' The place where the accident oc. urred was
■ was about so ty miles on the other side of In-1
• dianapolis. As soon as possible, information
' was sent to Ind'anapolis, when a new engine
and cars were despatched immediately to the
place, where they arrived about half-past four
o’clock on Sunday morning.— Chicago Press,
, June 6th.
e Canada.—The prevailing question at pres-
ent on the north side of the Lukes is the dis
solution of the Union between Upper and
I Lower Canada. Although the French and En
. gli<h population of those provinces seem <>p
posed to all other questions involving Consti
tutional charges, the press of the country ap
pears to forsee and to admit the necessity of a
dissolution of the Union between the Can
s i
adas. ,
I The discontent which exists seems indeed to
be serious and widespread. Clubs and con
spiracies are spoken of as increasing. In view
j of this state of things the Governor content
plates a change of advisers, and 'tis very ques
tionable whether any change of that nature
will effect a cure. The source of the disorder
lies far deeper. The population of Canada
We-t w ill not be satisfied with any thing short

Extraordinary Story
s About the Dauphin of Prance. iMuis .Vl'll —
Did he Di“ in the Temple or not ?
There are stranger things than fiction, even
s in modern times, but people will hardlvbe pre-
- mired for the startling announcement which
, was asserted at a coroner’s inquiry held vester-
- day. before Mr. Wakley, Coroner of'West
- Middlesex, that the Dauphin of France, the
- unfortunate son of Louis XVL, did not, his
t tory states, die on the 9th of June. 1*95 in
the prison of the temple, after a miserable
i confinement of three years, but that he expired
> n a London street cab but a few days since,
t and that the deceased. up< n whom the inquest
was being held was no other than that Dau ph- ■
1 in, Lmiis XVII, of France. Such was the
marvelous story made public yesterday at un ’
, inquest held at the Lord Wellington. I Hi, er-J
| sity street, upon a person who, under the name
of Augustus Menes, has for some years past
resided with his family at 35 University street, i
Tottenham court road, where he followed the j
, avocation of a professor of music. It appear-
I ed that the deceased, who was in his seventy- •
fifth year, was suddenly taken ill, when near
his own residence, and as medical assistance
could not be immediately procured, he was
conveyed, without delay, in a cub, to the Uni
versity College hospital, close bv. but he was!
dead before arriving at that institution, the
cause of the death being as the post mortem
examination distinctly proved, disease of'he
i heart. The jury returned a verdict according-
P ly. and so far the judicial pari of the proceed- j
mgs terminated : but. upon inquiring fur her '
in the peculiar statements that had been made I
by the deceased’s family, and the rumors that
I have got about in the neighborhood, causing
no littleexeitemeot, it seems that the deceased’s
conversation for the last thirty years, when be I
first made his family acquainted with the store. '
has been to the effect, that he was the Dnuph
in who was supposed to have died in the tern- j
pie. and while the deceased bore a str ng like
ness in the face to the Bourbon family of 1
France. His family assert, that he had cer- 1
tain marks on his person which the hapless 1
infant King had. He had always, himself, de
sired to keep the matter were from the world,
but his family have now expressed their deter
mination to publish the whole facts connected
