From the Louisville Courier. Democratic Convention at Lex ington. ADOPTION OF A PLATFORM. Lexington, Oct. 6. I had barely time between the conclusion of Senator Dougins’ speech aud the departure of the train, to drop you the imperfect notice of the Convention that appeared in the Courier of this date. A hydropathic dinner having been procured at the public tables, for it rained in cessantly, returning breads and pies to their ' original consistency of dough, and swimming vegetables and meats in small oceans of water, - the crowd adjourned to the upper market house. There, upon a reorganization, the committee on resolutions and an address reported the fol lowing : PLATFORM OF PRIFCIPLKS. 1. Resoved, That the Constitution of the United States isa political contract between the people of independent sovereignties which be stow paramount authority to the extent of the powers delegated, but leave those not delegated to the States respectively, or to the people, that a vigilant guard against the centralization of the powers is essential to the preservation of our institutions, and that by the instrument, Congress has no power express or implied to establish, abolish, or prohibit slavery in the States or Territories. 2. Resolved, That we re-afirm the time-hon ored principles of the Democracy, and believe the only sure garantce for the public tranquili ty is a strict adherence to the provision of the Constitution upon the subject of slavery, ap plying alike to the Stales and Territories, obser ved in the passage of the Compromise measures of 1850 and confirmed in the Kansas and Ne braska act, the carrollary of the former meas ure, by which Congress have declared that it is . their “true intent and meaning not to legislate slavery into any State of Territory, but to leave the people thereof from to form and regulate, their domestic institutions in their own wlr subject only to the Constitution of the United States, and’ that we do pledge ou selves to resist* the repeal amendment of modification of the Compromise of 1850 including the Fugitive Slave Law, and the Kansas and Nebraska act of 1h54. as we hold that they arc wise and just measures, and should be maintained undisturbed for the preservation of the national peace and the union of the States. 3. Resolved, That the Constitution of the ™ United States is founded upon the fundamental principle of entire and absolute equality among all the States of this Union and it is not com teut for the Coiigress or any other power to impose upon ndtStutes coming into the Union any condition wrestriction in respect to their domestic institutions or internal concerns which the Federal Conslstution has not imposed upon the original States; and that any effort on the part of Congress or any other power, to violate this principle, should be met and resisted by all good citizens, as an attempt to trample up on the Constitution and destroy our glorious Union. 4. Resolved, That all men have a natural right, antecedent to the formation of civil so ciety, and beyond the control of government, to religious freedom, the surrender of which is tin neccessary to ths temporal welfare of the State and cannot bo relinquished even by the consent of the citizen, 5a a free government; that much less can any iv.4’o party act, against his consent and that wo that the Know-Nothing Or der in the per :'»jn and pn aeription of Cath olics, have , j this eardiua principle, and are bigoted <. 3 to religious liberty, and foes to our cowtf, ■ ... o«ir laws and our free gov ernment. 5. ResaJ; ■ we do not recognize any distinction t>, . iizens of the United States based upon th sJoeratic principles of birth and we hoi If .., i; is dishonest to repudiate the contract giver; ‘if the government confer ring all the rightsof American citizenship in its letters of naturelizutii n, and afterwards by a party compact to debar naturalized citizens from the full benefits while we leave them subject to the full burthens of the agio meats. 6. Resolved. That open discussion of public affairs is the foundation of the intelligence of the people and the safe-guard of freedom; that any secret association or brotherhood for politi cal objects is dangerous to free institutions, destructive of social confidence, and contrary to the frank an 1 manly character of a true Ameri can; and that we regard with abhorrence the organized falsehood and treacherous secresy of the Know-Nothing Order. 7. Resolved. That the recent election in the city of Louisville was marked by the most glar ing fraud upon the elective franchise, am d con flagrations, murders, and barbarities, contrary to the character and unknown before in the history of this people, the offspring of a cruel system of reli ious bigotry and polical hatred of race, engendered in and executed by a secret, oath-bound,jacobinieal society re-producing in America tiie savage scenes that stained the su premacy of their kindred fraternities in the French Revolution. 8. Resolved, That the President of the Uni ted States and the present administration have been faithful to the principles of the Democra cy, and especially deserve the thunks of the country lor the course pursued in relation to the Kansas and Nebraska act. for the measures to secure our western frontiers, and for the maintenance of the honor and dignity of the government in our foreign relations, J). That we have witnessed with pleasure the official conduct of the late Governor of Ken tucky, and that we fully approve his adminis tration 10. That the Hon. Beverly L. Clarke, Beriah Magoffin, R. W. Woolley, and the other State candidates, deserve the thunks of the Democra cy for the able, eloquent and fearless manner in which they sustained the principles of our party in the late canvass. 11. That the sect ionnl hate has been engender ed in the country, the bloody tumults which have marked the progress of the Know-Nothing or der. the inefficient administration of the law and the social and political demoralization that has followed, call upon all honest aud patriot!* Atnercans, whether Whigs or Democrats regard less of past opinions, to make common against the secret order of Know Nothings, and to pre serve inviolate the inestimable blessings of civil and religious liberty guaranteed by the consti tution of the United States. 12. That the thanks of the country are due to those Whigs who, loving tiie republic more than parly, gave patriotic support to those prin ciples which lie at the foundation of public liber ty and social order; we hail t hem us brothers and co-laburers in the great contest for equal rights and religious liberty. 13. That we have an abiding confidence in the patriotism of the Democracy at the North. 11. That the Northern Democracy are enti tled to the thanks of all good and true patriots for their firm adherence to the principles of tin constitution and their steady support of sound priciples. • 15. That this meeting recommend that tht Democracy of the State be vigilant and prompt in appointing delegates to attend the Uonven tion in Frankfort on the Bth of January. 1856 IG. That the proceedings of the Convention be published, and that John C. Breckinridge John 11. Harney. B. B. Taylor, aud Robt. W Woolley, be requested to superintend the pub lication of u sufficient number of copies for dis tributiou. colonkt. preston’s remarks. [By some oversight of the Committee of Ar rangements, not the least facility was provided for reporters to exercise their ’ functions. Sc that we of the fraternity had neither place upon the platform, nor scarce standing room in tin. crowd. Our notes of Judge Douglas’ speech were taken in the midst of the rain, using r friends back for a writing desk. The remarks of Col. Preston subjoined, are entirely from memory, and we would be doing that gentleman the grossest injustice did we not state that wt present but the substance of his main points. 1 is important to the public that his position U known on the great nutters of political concern ami hetice we state them briefly. We came give them in the eloquent and expressive lan guage with wbud: he e'er uotu*- lu» ibuqgl.*. O.i this occasion his oratory was more than usually graoufui aud cvmmaudiiur. Tin axv. ing listened with the profoundcst attention, verv frequently, however, cheering him with the loud est huzzas.] Col. Preston began by saying that in the highly flattering introduction of the late Gov ernor some allusion had been made to his lat< defeat aud the manner in which he had been de feated. He would assure his friends there pre sent that he did not feel cast down, nor conquer ed by the result of the election iu the Louis ville district. He was convinced of its fraudu lency, yet that in no wise impaired his senti ment of faith in the ultimate justice of a fret people. Hence upon their more dispassionately viewing his position, upon their calmly review ing their own conduct, he felt atsured that rea son would resume its sway in the popular mini and truth be reinstated. There had been some thing portentious of the direst evils to the com; try, aud to freedom, in the rise and swift-foote< progress of the new party; if so that organize tion could be called, now rent and sundered ii so many places North and South. Its secres; —its proscriptiveness—its vindictive spirit—it. manner of clothing intentions to do wrong, un der the hypocritical guise of friendship—these things had rendered it dangerous; and these things pandering, to the inclinations of depraver men of all parties, had given it at theoutset un usual ’ strength. But the specious attraction of this dark-dealing Order had measurably faded In tiie North it has resolved itself into the most sycophantic ally of Abolitionism. Why. what and how have been its triumphs ? The election of Hale in New Hampshire, of Trumbull in Illinois, from a part of its achievements. And pray would those two Senatorsof Know Noth ing choice dare to come to Kentucky and advo cate their doctrines, as the two gallant speak ers, Democratic Senators from Ohio and Illi nois, have done this day. They cannot—they dare not Their own brethren would resist their appearance. It is but a sectional faction —its power confined solely to the North. But how with the Democracy North and South , they are the friends of equal rights—they dan maintain their slavery opinions in any quarter and as such, discountenancing thereby the in cendiary doctrines of all Union haters, they pre serve the confederacy intact. Col. Preston said that it was because of the attitude of the Democratic party with refer ence to the preservation of the Union—their noble stand upon the passage of the Kansas-Nc braska bill—the even handed jvstice that the;, meeted out to all sections of the country—i' was because of these things that lie appeared here to-day, addressing a Democratic Convert tion. His first political fight was against the Emancipationists, when in company with a dis tinguished Democrat. (Hon. James Guthrie) he triumphed. His last contest was against i; party composed chiefly of rabid Anti-Slaver; men, who denied the rights of the South, and set up for themselves exclusive claims to the new territories. In this battle he was in a great measure supported by the Democracy, and though he suffered defeat, he had rather meet that end aud occupy his present position, than have triumphed, with the blood of the innocent upon his hands and the rights of the South trampled under foot. Hence to-day he found himself allied, as were many of the best Whigs of the land, with tht Democracy, in opposition to an insidious foe. Kentucky’ at present cherishes that enemy tn civil and religious liberty—that proscriptionisl of equal rights to the native and forign born— the order that made reEgon a test, and attempted to usurp the place of Providence and judge of the propriety of a man's religous test. With priimples stch as these, the people of Kentucky had no affinity. Their reputation was world wide for frankness aud sincerity, for boldness and chivalry—they could not conceal their opin ions, n>r strike down an opponent because he might cherish an opposite creed. This Know- Nothingism was against all the Kentuckian’s ideas of magnanimity, and he desired the people to mark his prediction, that at the Presidential election in 1856, Kentucky would be enrolled among the Democratic Co’. Preston difcusssed at some length, in a very able manner, the doctrines of the new or der concerning religion. His s;>eech was the mos* captivating and telling of the day, despite th, ability oi the other speakers, and hasp'aced himself higher in the affections of unpledge and unoathbound of Kentucky. Female' Equestrianism. The epidemic of female equestrianism is upon us. A fair without female competition in tin ring is no fair. Encouragement iu female rid iriving is very well, but the danger to be apprehended grows out of that nationality of ours which tends to running every new thing •■into the ground.” Too often the riding anil driving ring at our fairs only needs the addition of tun bark and a clown to make it amateur circus. Ah one advance step in the physical education of American women, we are glad to • see attention dirrected generally to the healthful i jtnd graceful exercise of boys and girls, youm: I men ami young women, on horseback ; and com I petition in the ring, although confined t > bul j few directly, will necessarily create a sort i>‘. I excitement upon the subject which already has ' produced beneficial results. Now, it needs only ' to guard aginst too "fust” riding. VVe have been not a little amused at the re port of the "Riding Com iiittee” at the Onondaga (N. Y.) County Fair, as reported in the Syra ; cuse Journal. It seems that committee, instead . of deciding upon the horsemanship of others, . mounted their ovvh “hobbies,” aud away they went, each one in chase of his owu fancy, as to . style aud dress of the equestrians. The report says: ’•■With some tho Amazonian style found favor: others thought a less bold and dashing style best , comported with the delicacy of the sex; while . yet a third class admired an equal blending of . the two. Your honorable President wished it , to be distincly understood that no dangerous break-neck, dare-devil kind of riding was to be encouraged. Some preferred long flowing robes . and a hat and veil, giving as a reason for their preference that long skirts were graceful and the hat best kept the hair in order, the veil ad ding sufficient grace to make it womanly; others wise firm in their regard for short skirts, full Turkish trousers and boots, insisting that such a dress made up in safely what it lacked in grace: some liked straw hats ; some flat caps, indeed there was as great diversity of opinion expressed as there usually is when any commit tee want to make a platform." Whether any were in favor of Indies adopt ing the Panama Isthmus style, or the circus style, the report dose not say. The committee, however, examined history, aud came to the profound conclusion that riding is of-very an cient date, though very little (if any) known be fore the flood," and that the first authentic ac count of riding to some purpose was that of Reoecca. The committee, having trot confused and em barrassed iu the mazes of history and scripture. I a varded eleven premiums, promising other pre miums next year to the unsuccessful competitors The first premium was for "skilfully managing different horeses." the second for "extreme beauty with which she sat and rode.” third, for "lady like dignity" of riding; fourth- “for spirited, fear less rid ng:" fifth, "for graceful stylish carriage," sixth.“rapid yet extremely beautiful riding:"! sevei th, "for modest, nuassnming, dignified style:' eigl th, fer riding a pony which was “managed bcauti nlly;" ninth, for -whose horse was obsti- ! nate. but was at length compelled to obey his fair rider:" tenth, "who only requires a little more practice to make her a good horsewoman:" aud. eleventh, "who was not lacking inskiiland fear li ssaess. but who was most unfortunate in her, selection of a horse.’ Each of these committee men, at the winding up of the exercises, should have been tied to the aporn strings of his favorite rider and trotted arout.d the ring.— Cleveland Herald. The Illumination in Paris and the sur j rounding village for the Fall of Sebastopol, it ■wms, was by order of government, and not at, all a v. 1 intary popular demonstration. One' it neq on lent says that in the village where he i resides a drummer paraded the streets at ten j o.elock iti the miming, ai d after hav’ng eoilee t si a crowd, he directed al! >he inhabitants of ■he vi'age to h umiliate their windows on a c rtain evening, by order of the local a'ithorities, l ■ under n penalty of a fine of seven and a half < francs for every window not illuminated.

' Belgian Steam Link to Rio.-—The Journal lo Gommercio of Rio says that a Belgian line if steamers Antwerp and Rio de Janeiro is de finitely organized. The capital of the society s 3,000.1100 francs, in 3,000 shares. The line is to consist of four screw steamers, each capa ble of carrying 600 tons of merchandise, besides their fuel, with accommodations for 25 cabin passengers and 150 others, and equal to un iverage speed of from eight and a half to nine niles an hour without using sails. The first is to commence before the 29th of 51 ay, 1857- I’he first year they arc to make bi monthly voyages, and afterwards monthly ones. The Belgian Government grants the company a ■ubsidy of 330,800 francs, payable. 150.000 .'rancs the first year, and 36,000 francs a year ’or five years afterwards. It is expected that ne of the vessels will commence running about ■ight months hence. The company is formed or twenty years, and at its head is Rothschild, jf Paris.— Balt. Amer. Nesselrode.—Of all statesmen of Europe ind America who took part in public affairs at the fall of the first Napoleon the only one now remaining in place is that Russian Minister, who commenced his political career as a powerful foe of the Napoleonic dynasty, which he still lives to combat. All the public men of the United gtates it is said, who were then eminent in political life, have departed;a new generation iccupy their places. In Europe none remain but N esselrode, the patriarch of statesmen, who has survived two Imperial masters; who as the Minister of Alexander the First, opposed the aggressions of the great Napoleon aud now, as the Minister of Alexander the Second, is the vigorous foe of Napoleon the Third. Havana, Oct. 1 —I have at length the plea sure of announcing the final settlement of the Black Warrior” outrage, by the payment last week, of the amount agreed to be received as a full indemnify for all the wrongs and injuries inflicted in that high-banded and outrageous matter. At the present moment the payment of so large an amount must have been rather inconvenient, yet let us do Gen. Concha justice: he stood up to the rack like a thorough bred, and “forked ont” unhesitatingly. It would almost appear that Gen. Concha ap prehends another fillibnstering expedition from the United States, for among other returns or dered periodically to be made, is one of the names of all machinists coming from and going to the United States, and also of all conspiracies calculated to upset ‘-the present order of things." —Charleston Courier. Ova Indian Relations.—A letter from Fort Union, New Mexico, dated September 1, says : “Our Indian relations are assuming a better aspect. Treaties have been made, or renowed. with the Mesealeros, the Navajos. and .lie Ca porto Utahs; leaving only the Blanco Utahs and the Jacarillo Apaches, with whom we have been fightiling all the winter, ont of the mystic circle. ” These latter are, at their own request to meet the Governor at Abivue in the early part of this month, and it is expected that they will make a treaty which they will keep for a year or two at least. They are all benaveing very well at present, and we hear little or noth ing of depredations iu any quarter.” A Second Whitfield.—Recent English journals mentioned that a young preacher of the Methodist church is creating as much ex citement as Irving and Whitfield did in then day. The London correspondent of the New York Times says: “His name is Spurge:: and he can scarcely have reached his 22d or 23d year. I should think. His eloquence is extra ordioary. It overwhelms you with its force anil brilliancy; and his voice has the character istics which Whitfield’s is’said to have possessed —a ringing tone, and capable of being heard by an assemblage often thousand persons.” A great Quasi—National Race. VYe were yesterday tempted. with some 1.- 500 persons, to witness the race at Broad Rock, in which Kentucky, Alabama, New Jersey and Virginia were competitors. Extra trains of the Petersburg Railroad, omnibusses, hacks am], private conveyances; furnished the means W transportation for the large crowd. There were originally, nine entries, but the following six horses appeared on the track: Monday, October B.—A sweepstake for all ages: four mile heats ; four or mure to make a race; the proprietor to add SI.OOO.

The name of the Post Office, called Tanners ville, in Warren county, Go., has been changed to Tanville. At the late State Fair at Elmira, a German exhibitetl a lock from which, if the wrong key is used, a pistol barrel with great rapidity is sues, and the short memory about the key has a sudden termination. The Carolinian of yesterday says: “The drought is very extensive through the country. In the upper districts paper and eth er mills can scarcely do any work. On the South Carolina Railroad, the freight trains are embarrassed and delayed from want of water.” Tiie Marion Star of Tuesday says : “We had yesterday morning a pretty sharp frost; not one, however, that may be called a killing frost, though still enough to give a con siderable check to vegetation. It may cause <ome damage to the cottou cron, by cutting oft the late bolls.” It is stated that the war has already imposed upon Turkey expenses to the amount of over 300,000,000 francs; of which 220,000,000 had l>een made from its own resources, and 80.000,- 000 would be provided for by the new loan, guaranteed by the Western powers. There is one very good reason why ladies should be eligible for members of Congress.— They would afford such abundant facilities for pairing off. A large merchant and importer says that in the United States wc are paying more duty on artificial flowers than on railroad iron. As an offset to this, a strong-minded woman asserts that the men spend more money for tobacco l han they do for tea, coffee, and sugar, while the sums they lay out on sherry cobblers would keep the country in new boots “the whole bles sed time.” Five hundred thousand pounds of wool were recently sold in Troy, New York, by Hebring ton & Warren, to oil eastern merchant, for 3200,000. The Merrick House, near Pittsburgh, one of the largest buildings in the State, was destroyed by fire on Friday last. The segar makers of Connecticut hold a State Convention in Hartford for the purpose of ad justing a more equitable scale of prices and con sidering the propriety of calling a tripartite convention, consisting of New York, Connect icut and Massachusetts, for the purpose of har monizing those States under one scale. By a strange coincidence, which will not again occur for a long time, the new year of 1855 commenced on the same day as in 1849. and, consequently ail through the year the date will lie on the same day. But what is more singular is, that all the movable holidays, from Sepluagesima to Advent, fall on the same dates and the same days. The almanacs of 1849 might, therefore, serve for the present year. There were 14 deaths in Houston, the week ending the 28th September, from Yellow Fe ver. TPV M. Roby of Paris deposited in the great Exliibibition at Paris, on the 22d August, where it was inspected by the Queen and Prince Albert, a timepiece made entirely of clay. All the works, plates, cogs, and wheels, are made of aluminum; and M. Roby believes that it is much better for these purposes that the metals generally employed. It is much lighter, does not require so much power to conduct the wheels, and, therefore, with a heavy balance, will obtain a better result of regularity. It is very hard and smooth when hammered, and the friction will be reduced to almost nothing. Kossuth on the Fall of Sebastopol. —The New York Times publishes a letter from Kos suth in relation to the fall of Sebastopol—the leading idea of which seems to bethat the allies are very much in the condition of the man who won an elephant in a raffle—they will not know what to do with the fortress now that they (have got it. He gives it as his “decided opin ion that the prospects of peace are rather lessened than otherwise by the fall of the south of the town.” and still insist upon the belief that it “was n great mistake that the allies chose that point for an attack on Russia.” After al luding to the fall of Sebastopol, he says: What, then, is next to come? In my opinion, for the winter, the campaign will be restricted to the Crimea, and next year it will continue there; while, on the other hand, the naval operations in the Baltic will be resumed with augumented forces, and on n more effective scale." Mailing Letters on Board the Cars.— Complaints are again made to tiie department that letters arc mailed on boardthe cars,to tin injury of the business of the post-offices. The department decides that a post-office is the place, and the only place for mailing letters, and the; are permitted to be mailed at the cars only tn meet the exigencies of those whocannot. with rea sonable diligence, get them to the u post-oflici before the closing of the out-going mail: and instructs mail ngents to refuse to receive or mail nil letters which they have reason to know or beleive have been tendered to them under ; any circumstances- Persons who have become ' offended with the post-master of a town have been known to combine for the purpose of in juring the business and revenue of the post-office by employing an agent to collect letters and mail them at the cars. The department will use all lawful means to counteract and suppress all sncu combinations.— ICash. Union.

RELre or the Past.—The propeller Manhat tan. which arrived here yesterday morning, had on board a mass of copper weighing 1,276 pounds, which, from its appearance and the place from which it was taken, renders it a Treat curiosity. It was found by a man. while i excavating a cellar at Fortune Lake, imbedded about five feet in the sand. It is a thin sheet! ' mass, and differs materia.ly from the character )of the masses found in that locality. It must 1 have been put there by some of the ancient mi ners. as the vicinity in which it was found lias ■ ; no indications of the existence of copper, and . ' the moss itself bears evident traces of having i > been beaten and worked until the rock was er.-' I tirely separated from it. leaving a pure mass cf' i copper cf the weight above stated.— Lake Supe- Miner. iNAUorFanox Ball.—The Federal Union says the Inauguration Bali will be given at , Concert Ha l, in Milledgeville, on Wednesday, . the “th cf November.

Mammoth Iron Steamship. This immense steamer, building near Green wich, England, is thus described by a correspon dent of the Nashville Union ; “Her length is sit hundred and eisr'ity feet —h ?r beam eighty-fine feet — her depth of hold sissy-eight feet — her screw power is sixteen hun dred horse, and her paddle power one thousand home. She has two sets cf engines, one for the screw nod the other for the paddles, and ten boilers often tenseach. Tiie amount of iron in her hull and machinery is estimated at ten thousand tons. She is doubleplankcdthrough out with iron plates, three quarters of an inch thicii on the sides, and an inch thick on the bottom, which is perfectly flat for the width of forty feet. The space between the planks is thirty-four inches—she has four decks—the two upper upper ones twenty inches apart, one of which is double iron plate, covered with wood. H r measurement is fifteen thousand five hun dred tons. She can convey from one port to another an army of ten thousand men. with the necessary accoutrements, including artillery.— When loaded, she will draw twenty-eight feet, and eighteen when light—at no time will there be less than thirty-eight feet of iier hull above water. It is calculated that on a comparative smooth sea. she will run at a speed oi twenty five miles per hour.” Curiosities in the Patent Office.—Among the greatest curiosities in the Patent Office at at Washington, are the busts of a number of fifteenth rate notorieties, which are struck up among the crocodiles, alligators, behemoths and monkeys, and are voyaging in the same vessel to immortaltiy. We certainly think most of these busts are the ugliest representations of animal nature in the whole collection. If the originals sought to gratify any personal vanity by such an exhibition iu the Patent Office, they ought to hear the remarks that aro made by visitors: “What ugly wretchthat?"—“Never heard of him before?’ “What is he, doctor, law yer, or highway robber?” “What did be ever do, to bring him here ?” &c., &e. Such arc the questions and remarks which arc constantly elicited by the crowd of hideous looking busts of the smallest great men that the world ever produced, now on exhibition iu the T. S. Patent Office. Wasdington endeavored to collect all the coin that had his image uponjthem, and destroy them. What a contrast to the conduct of fho aspring manikin of our times! But Washington could afford it, for his image was stamped in everlast ing letters, on every American heart. These dwarfs, on the contrary, would never be res cued from the tide of oblivion, unless they adop ted some such device for notoriety as that which wc have described, and then they are only I thought of to be pitied for their ugliness, and laughed at for their folly.— Richmond Dispalch. The Nashville Union & American, of the 7th inst. says: “Wm. K. DeGraffenreid, of Georgia and’James A. Whiteside, of Ten, nessee, Commissioners appointed under Legisla tive resolutions by the Governors of the respec tive States, to confer in relation to the law of Tennessee which subject the Western & Atlanf )ic Railroad to suits in the Courts of Tenncssee and fix upon such terms of negotiation and re cijirocity asshall be acceptable to b »th States,’ he d an informal conference at tie Executive, office iu this city on yesterday. “The questions involved in the negotiation are understood to be of a delicate and highly im portant character, involving deeply the inter ests of the citizens of the two States in their commercial intercourse with each other. The questions of the jurisdictions of the Courts of Tennessee over suits brought against the Wes tern and Atlantic Railroad in this State, is now pending before our Supreme Court at Knox ville. in the case of McClung against that road, carried up by apjieal from Bradley county, iu which a judgment was rendered against the Road for 310.000, and is expected to be deci ded in a few- days. On this account and to give time for a proper examination and considera tion of all the questions and interests involved, the Commissioners have determined to await the decision of the Supreme Court and to meet again at Milledgeville for further conference be fore making any report.” Uncommon Growth.—There is hanging in our office, the forked bougn of an apple-tree, each part of which measures only twenty-two inc , 'es in lenght, on which there are one hun dred and forty-seven applei.’ thicker upon the wood than human ingenuity could possibly affix. They are of an average diameter of two and a half inches, and the weight of the branch is thirteen pounds. It was cm from n tree on the premisis of Mr. John Haley, in the western art of the city, and Is called “ Anti-Know Nothing Apple," from its great yield.—New Huven Register.

I The Weekly Examinek will after the first day of August next, be issued to subscribers, at the low price of ONE DOLL AR per annum, paya able invariably in advance. Many reasons have induced the proprietor ol this paper to embark in an enterprise never be fore attempted in the South, and which has proved, not only successful in the Anti-Slavery Slates North and West, but has received a pat ronage in the Slave Stales, that had better be con fined though at greater expense, to the South ern Press. To obviate, then, the objection, as far as we can, tc the price of the Weekly Examiner, we from and alter the period designated willforwaid it to subscribers at one dollar, per annum, and this will place it within the reach of the poor, a» will as the rich.

In short, every thing that I can reasonably be expected of a weekly paper. . will be laid before the subscribers to the Exarn ! iner.

This book tells her what to tlo for it, in simple but chaste words, and such n> she can understand. Those suffering from obstructions or ities peculiar to t’.Q female system, or from prolapsus uteri (falling of the womb), or fromfium albus. will each find in its pages the means oi prevention, amelioration, and relief. Much distress of mind, as well as thousands pecuniarily, might be saved to cviry husband, ii the simplest laws appertaining to the mi stale were better understood. That they are noi better understood is traceable to hnt natural and ihnoet commendable sensitiveness that will rath er sufler than consult or converse with even n medical man in rvspectto complaints peculiar to the female ordy.
