STATE Coi\'vi-:i\"1'roN.—'I‘lie time of holding
our annual State Convention for the nomination
of State olfieers, is. "we are glad to see, eliciting
some attention among the brethren ofthe press.
The season of the year in it hicli these conven-
lions ltave heretofore been held. has been one
of the most iucleinent, a‘ d usually altemletl
with greater inconvenience in traveling than
any other of the year. This is one, and a
very strong objection. as it goes very far to pre-

dates early in the field, 5.-. gitie our opponents an
opportunity to discuss their principles 5; claims.
while we at the same time. may avail oursclvrs
ofa siuiilar privilege with theirs. A free iiiter-
change- of sentiment on these subjects are
desirable for the iriformrition of the people, to
enable them to vote intelligently. The locos
are to hold their convention at l\Iiili_l!c-town on
the 25th of October. will it not be well for
the Whigs to fix on as early a s-eason? AS (/10
Colonel of the I’alladiuni ntay be supposed to
speak the sentiments of the State Central Com-
miuse, it may be inferretl that the Committee
look favorably upon the proposed change. \Ve
therefore expect and hope that an early call will
be matle.
Tim DELUGE of rain that fell on the night
of .‘vionday the 21st inst. and the morning ofthe
22d, did much damage in and about the city of
New York. The streets of the city presented
the. appearance of rivers, and iiuudreds of cel-
lars were filled with water. The streets upon
which the greatest dainagi2\vas sustaioul were
the Sixth Avenue. Waverly Place, Houston.

In some instances, even the foundations of
the houses were undermined and crumbled
down. the side walks and sioops caved and
washed away. Many poor families
occupied the basements, ‘were driven front their
ltomes, and uiucli furiiiiiire and other property
seriously injured or destroyed.

evening says :——-
About 7 o’clock, a large portion. of ‘the
earth in the vicinity of the bath house gave
way, and slid into Fllfllliln strt-ei, covering
it to the depth of two or three feet. A milk-
[Hill], who was passing at the moment, was
forced by the avalanclie, with his horse and
wagon, through a gate on the opposite Side
ofthe street, and the whole were rolled over
and over, without, hotvcver, injuring man or
horse. Mr. B-arnet Hyde, who was struck
with the wagon in its progrt-ss, hztd both of
his legs broken. The whole (’lllbilI']l\'lllt’fll..
extenilirig from the Colonade Garden to
R-antsen street, is more or less injured, and
the beautiful green sward entirely swept
aivttv.
Fioin our News Collector, says the Jour.
of Commerce, we le.irn that the storm was
very severe on Staten Island. In the vi
ciriitv of the quzirantine a great number of
baseineuts and cellars were filled with water
from the surrounding hills, causing great
destruction of property. The walls of the
q'];]rranl_lne were 0Vt:'ffIt)\V(’tI to the depth of
3 feet. In it nu-nbt-r of plttees the inmates
were obliged to desert the lower part of their
dwellings The beautiful grounds which
front the Hospitals are iftuch injured. The
great torrents of \Vill.t‘.l' which rush?-d with
amazing rapidity, m-ride large gullies on the
side. of the hill, carrying along great quan-
tities of earth and depositing it in piles on
the dock. _
At the Narrows, a house situated on the
shore, almost imriiedizitcly under the tele-
grttph, occupied by a liiborjng Iri.<.hman and
his fitmilv, consisting of five persons was
moved fifly feet by an nlvanclie of earth from
the hill, and the back part crushed, burying
under its ruins two inert and :1 child, the
Litter being killed; the two men were dug
out of the ruins much bruised. .
A new printers’ news boat belonging to
the Collector of the associate penny papers,
which was laying near the house, was
crushed to pieces. The banks are in smite
places entirely washed away,- and large
trees have been carried lroni the top of hills
down on the beach, and in some places trees
imty be seen with their tops lowering above
the surf. -
The earth caved in on the road, about 6
feet from the light house, leaving a chasmqof
20 feet deep. At one time there was 3 feet
water on the floor, and had the storm con-
tinued one hour longer, it must have fallen.
The beautiful embankments in front of
Fort Hamilton, on Long Island side of the
Narrows. are mostly destroyed. The dam-
age sustained around the different fo'rts is
’estiinaterl at $5000. The banks all along
the Narrows are iojurvd to it great €X_tt‘Dl-

heard of no serious damage being done. The

have never seen them in so bad a condition as
at present. Our Connecticut Turnpike directors
are of opinion that it will take a smart sprink-

that while the R. L. Stevens was on her way
from Glen Cove, L. I. she W.1Sll}lCnlI()n2lll_y run

Stevens in the alierpart of the larbnard boiler.
Callatiit Peck and \Villiam \X’ood, the
master and pilot of the Fairfield have been held
to bail in the sum of $5000 each, to answer this
complaint.
HON. Jonv M. NtLns.——-We learn that the
Hon. John M. Niles is in the Insane Retreat at
Uiica. His friends have placed him in that
institution instead of the one at Hartford. in
order that he might be under the care of his
friend, Dr. Brigham,,formerly of the Hartford
Retreat. '

vicinity. this Fall, and adds: ‘The supreme
ridiculousness of the collossal niummery enact
ed in this town on a former occasion, is fresh in
the memory ofall; and we believe that the
general opinion was, that if the originators of
that affair never committed another crazy act,
they ought to have been sent to the Asylum for
that. But we cannot think that so many ofthe
laboring class are to be called again four or five
days from their homes and business. to give ef-
fect to an extensive display ofepauletted vanity
and to the benefit of nobody but blacklegs and
Bacchanalians.’
GE')RGlA.—-Glivttrnol’ t\’lt:Donald has issued
his proclamation, directing an election to be
held on the 1st Monday in October next, for
the election ofa member ofCongress, to fill the
vacancy occasioned by the resignation of John
B. Lamar. Two members of Congress will
have to be elected in Georgia on that day.
Oi-‘FICEP. DRILL. -On Tuesdayioflast week
we had a turn out of the officers ofthe 9th Reg.
in this place. The number out was small
owing to the unfavorable state of the weather.
This was to be regretted much, as we looked
for a litttle display. The Stamford Rifle Co.,
the Horseneck Co. with the South Norwalk and
New Canaan Cos, and the admirable band
belonginggto Capt. Miner's corps, were capable
of doing that thing in the right way.

hroken’out in the villages of ~Roundout_ and

The verdict for $250 iccnveretl by J. F-

but the Col. said in his paper that the money
would not be paid until the last day of the lim-

were for, and the restilt oftheir laliors is a glo-

the southern coiinties, occasioned by a contrary
teniporising,qualifying, incidental halfaod half

is invincible, and we trust we shall heed the
lesson.
