We seldom, if ever, witnessed a Town Meeting where there seemed so little interest manifested by the people.

It is represent- ed as being “of the largest size, measuring six and seven inches in circumference, beauti- ful form, rich, deep crimson color; fruit borne on tall crimson footstalks, of the ‘most exqui_ site nine fiavor; fiesh firm, melting and juicy, and bears transplantation better than any . .trawberry ever yet cultivated.” Mr. Pea. body proposes to send out the plants as soon as one thousand subscribers are obtained at five dollars per dozen.

Y., and written by Rev. Philo Tower, of the M. E. Church, who was settled in that city some years since. The book pro- fesses to be “ is truthful narrative of a three years’ residence and journeying in eleven Southern States, with the invasion of Kansas, and the last chapter of her wrongs.” In read- ing it, one finds himself unwittingly absorbed by his unaffected narrative of the wrongs and cruelties of the peculiar institution, and adeep- er feeling of hatred to all that enslaveg the minds or bodies of mankind, comes over the soul. The incidents are all given as truthful, and from the well-known character of the au- thor. it is impossible to doubt them, although it is difiicult to believe that any institution, however corrupting, could so beastialize our humanity as to prepare it for the commission of-the soul-sickening crimes therein narrated, enormities tha " would shame extremest hell.” Heaven protect us against the spread of such _a curse-over the free Territories of the Union! Speaking of CASSIUS M. Cur, and his fear- ;less action at home, he gives the following il- lustration: “ Reader, did you ever hear this sin- gular man in public? I presume you have, while on some of his eastern lec- turing tours. = Well, just allow me here -to describe to you, reader, how be her- angues his native Kentuckians, on the subject of Suvirar. He sends an ap- pointment to a given place, to lecture at a certain time; perhaps some of the citi- zens will send word that he will not be allowed to lecture there; he sends word back to them that he will lecture there, according to previous notice. The time comes—a great crowd is collected to hearlthe lectureror to see the mob; pre- sently. the lecturer comes—he passes directly through the crowd, mounts the forum, waves his hand for attention ;' all eyes are turned towards the speaker.- He commences with a firm, clear, and decided tone of voice, the following re- marks: ‘ v p ‘ ' " Gentlemen, (says he‘,) I have a few preliminaries to settle, previous to enter- ina upon the main subject of ‘discussion. I want to make three short appeals to three classes of persons, whereupon he holds up a small Bible. There, gentle- men, says he, is the greatcharter record of human rights, on which ‘all law and equity is based, deserving the name of law--this is my appeal to the religious portion of society; and lays it down on the stand before him. Then he holds up the Constitution of the United States: ‘Here, gentlemen, says he, is the bond of our Union, the noble Constitution of our glorious Republic, which says that all men am free and equal, with certain in- alienable rights, etc.,—this is my appeal to gentlemen, to patriots, and to all true- hearied Americans-and places it, with the Bible, before him. Then he puts his hand into his pocket, and brings out an enormous six-shooter; holding it up be- fore lhe audience, he exclaims : And here, gentlemen, is a eix-shooter, every barrel of which is heavily chaiged with powder and cold lead—thie‘is my appeal to the inobocrate ; and I will blow its contents through the heart of the first man who offers to lay his hands on me ; to silence me in my native State, or to gag free speech in my presence. This he also lays down upon the stand with his two former appeals, ready for action. Then he commences a perfect storm against the peculiar institution, enough to wring the sweat out of old Kentucky from "every pore. - By this time, all are awed into submissive silence. Such, sir, is the celebrated nephew of old Henry Clay, in his own State. Success to his efforts; may be live to see the chains tall from every slave in the land of his birth." By the way, speaking of the Brothers Dar- row, (who are both enterprising, ”thorough-go- ing ConnecticutYankee boys.) tbeyhave one of thelargest and finest Book Stores and Publish- ing Houses in Western New York, and by their energies and honest dealing, have secured a trade that will soon waft them on to fortune. It was our good fortune in our recent Western trip. to join the junior member of the firm with his accomplished bride, and family friends, at his bridal party. May prosperity and happi- ness fill up the measure of their days. “ Lir-rm Domirr.”—This last, and perhaps best, work of Charles Dickens, has just been issued by T. B. Peterson, Philadelphia, uniform with their editions of his entire works. The following notice of the works of “ Boz,” from the N.Y. Evangelist, is so nearly our own opin- ion, that we copy it entire: “ Little .Dorri't.—Charles Dickens is incomparably the greatest purest, and safest of the writers of fiction of the pres- ent day; that he ever uses the form of fiction merely as the vehicle of moral and philanthropic instruction ; that with all his faults, he has been and is an ef- fective reformer of abuses, a friend of ihe poor, a diffuser ‘of democratic prin- ciples, and a fosterer of every manly virtue and elevating principle, we be. lieve no candid reader will deny. His works have attained such a position in English literature, and are exerting so wide, and on the whole, so good an in- fiuence, that they assert a place in every well-appointed library, and more than any contemporary fiction are worthy of perusal.” ‘ ~ Godey’s Ladies Book. Godey’s Ladies Book has long taken the lead in point of artistic skill and literary merit, but the December number is the very acme of success-—a perfect triumph of Art—ereditable to the literary abilityof our age, and flatter- ing to our national pride in its exquisitely fine artistic execution. We have heretofore set no limits to the genius of Godey, but we confess our credulity was not prepared for the trium- phantperfection visible in the number before us. There is another thing about it——His mot- to is “ Excelsior,” and well does he keep step to the sentiment—each number surpasses the predecessor, and so it goes throughout the year.

York Tuesday afternoon, after an unsuccessful cruise. She left New York on Sunday, the 16th. She cruised all about Nari- tucket, and far beyond ii, in a zig-zag course, so as to sweep the ocean in all directions ; tllence.ahe struck off from the shoals to the S. E., to wllere the col- lision occurred, and penetrated to the Gulf Stream. Elglii or ten vessels were spoken, all of which had experienced rough weather. Capt. Foster expresses strong hopes that, as there were many vessels in sight when the Mate was les- cued, that some of them, outward bound, picked up some or all of the other boats. Of those on the raft, be however thinks that none could have been saved. The oflicers of the Marioll report that it is their opinion that the Lyonnais must have inevitably sunk, as it would be next to impossible for a vessgl in her condition to stand such weather as they have experienced. [13-A lad was burned to death in Pearl street, N. Y., on Saturday week. At. 3 o'clock in the morning, a fire broke out in the paper store of O’Sullivan& Faye, No. 436, Pearl street, and spread with great rapidity. Patrick Hayse, with his family. occupied the upper part of the building, and Hayes immediately fled to the roof, with his three youngest chil- dren, leaving the eldest, a smart lad of 17, to follow and take care of himself.— 0li_Hayse reaching the roof,he heard his son cry out ' Where are you, father!’ and called back to him to come up. In another instant, he heard the lad appar- ently sufi‘ocating,and before he could de- scend for him, the flames _hnd reached the roof, and the _lad was dead.

The Lyuchburg Virginia of October 29th,discourses iii the following elegant terms of Truman Smith and his Address to the People of Connecticut, which ap- peared a few weeks since : " This lnsolent old abolition scoundrel was in Ly ncliburg about a year ago, and was treated with politeness and respect while here. We think he eveil partook of the hospitalities of a prominent aild esteemed citizen. Now that he has got back in his hot bed of fanaticism, and among his kindred spirits of evil, he, like a mean and ullgraieful wreich, dares to threaten Southern gentlemen who prefer disunion to the diclations, transgressions and tyranny of fanatics,with thegilllows. If he will but show his ugly countenance and contemptible old carcass here again, we will convince him that we have hemp» ‘ enough, and patriotic hands enough to ‘apply it, to'uo ample justice‘ to a traitor. in language, and a poliroon in heart and conduct,’ ” It is getting to be rather a dangerous thing to accept the hospitality of South- ern people. It can only be done, it seems, at the expense of a man’s freedom of speech, and to a great extent, of his free- doln of action. By accepting a dinner from some “ prominent and esteemed cit- izens” of Lynchburg, Mr. Smith render- ed himself liable, it seems, to he called “ a mean and ungrateful wretch,” when- ever he should venture to give public expression to opinions which he-has al- ways entertained, in common with the great body of his fellow citizens in the Northern States, and which he has nev- er disguised.

Baornnns or Torr Tnuirn. A Runaway Stsamboat.—An scen- tric but most amusing cruise was sonle time ago made by a steam tow boat in the waters of Southampton harbor, Eng- land, the particulars of which are rela- ted by a correspondent who was an eye witness of the whole affair. It seems that the Belmont, a regular steam tug, had taken in tow the ship Walter Hood, bound from Southampton to Australia. On reaching the lower bay, the sails were set on board the ship, and at the same time the tow boat was cast off with the intention of returning to Southamp- ton for another vessel, but by some acci- dent the ship run into the steamer, a violent crash followed, and in the con. fusion all hands, including the captain and cook of the latter, jumped on board the sailing vessel, leaving their boat in charge of a dog and two cats—-a strange crew for a steam going craft. But her steam was up, and after a succession of plungings and crashing, she succeeded in shaking herself clear of the ship, and the next moment was seen “ going it alone," starting off at a ten-ific speed, and in anything but the right direction for her For a few moments her captain and crew, engineer" and all. were struck with dismay. The long til- ler of the rudder was seen dashing to slid fro, while the the fierce barking of the dog, who evidently knew little of navigation or steering, rendered the scene at once absurd and terrific-ludicrous and frightful. Meanwhile the captain of the steamer having recovered his presence of mind" and composure, optsn- ed a small boat, and with his men star- ted in pursuit of his absconded craft; but ere he was well under way she had altered her course, and from some cause or other, came round and set oui._from the point from whence she had star- ted, thus making or describing a com- plete circle. ' The men bent lueiily to their ours, but the chased steamer dodged, shied and ciculated about in the most erratic man‘- ner, the dog keeping up an incessant barking and howling, as though seeking in this manner to head her off and bring her to reason. Soon she shot ofi in an opposite direction, and now made direct- ly for a light ship in the outer harbor. Here the men on the lookout descried her position, alid, having manned their boat, also started in pursuit. The race ' now became truly exciting, the course’ of the steam tug becoming more and more uncertain as the helm shifted to . and fro at the sport of the waves of the channel. By this time, however, she had nearly run‘ her race ; her steam was getting low, and at. length her speed gradually diminished, her paddles stop- ped, and then ultimately gave in from sheer exhaustion. The cre/tv from the liglitship was the first to board her own’ crew coming up about twenty minutes after. She was at length got into work- ing order, and brought safely into South- ampton dock, where she was sentenced to undergo complete repair after her frolic. it is said that the crew were ful- ly justified in leaving her as they did, she being in imminent, perils of going down. Mr. Simmer’: Second Lecture.-—WiI- liam Gilmore Simms, who has come up here to enlighten the North upon the Revolutionary history of South Carolina, was to give his second lecture last night at Dr. Chapin's church. A: five min- utes before eight there was an audience of three persons present: at _half past eight there were thirteen gentlemen and four ladies on hand. Then the gas was turned off by the sexton and the‘-audi- ence we-.niaway.—N. Y. Tribune. Q? We understandthat Mr. Sirlims's first lecture commenced with an a,sault on Mr. Sumner, and continued with a general attack on New England, ilnd a denial of the services rendered to South Carolina by the New England tloopa in the war of the Revolution. It is not strange that the people of New York declined to hear him again. In South Carolina, under similar circumstances, such a lecture would he mobbed. 1 lie New York plan is, in all respecis,‘,tlie better one,-Proih Jour. , ‘- l l . , Our New York correspondence. Ni-:w Youx, Nov. 28, 1856. That class of curiosity hunters which takes delight in two-headed calves, Al- bia’s walking skeletons, and like mon- strosiiies, had a great treat this week,ili the shape of a " Woman's Rights Con- velition.” The meetings were worth at- tending, not so much for the sake of the ferocious platitudes uttered by sharp-vis- aged female orstore, as for the compre- hensive views there obtained of the physiognoniies of all sorts of oddities and social heretics, both male and feinale.— Spiritualil-ts, Shakers, Free Lovers. and Mormons, were there in abundance. The declarations of the few indignant women who engineered the affair, were decided- ly of the “ high falutin" order, weak de- coctions of metaphysics, stirred up with bold assertions. altogether reminding one of Mrs. Candles in an " ercles Vein-"-— The entertainment, on the whole, would have been fiat and stale enough, having lost the charm of novelty, had itnoi. been varied by the outbursting eccentricities of an escaped lunatic, who was drawn, by some mysterious principle of affinity, into this assembly of congenial souls.— The congenial souls, however,‘didn’t ap- pear to relish his presence very much, particularly when he proposed to repeat the Lord’s Prayer, as a thank offering for " Heaven's last,_best gift to man.” The ladies of the Convention showed a par- ticular animosity to Sts. Peter and Paul for their advice to married women. The only sensible measure proposed during the meetings was, a regulation of the husband's right to his wife’: property. The old Tabernacle was the scene of these performances, and was pretgy well filled with unbelievers, at a shilling a head. ' General Vega, and some other Mexi- can exiles of distinction now in this city, visited lately the public institutions on the East River. The military evolutions of the boys on Randall's Island, which are really admirable, and their evident enthusiasm, called forth very complimen- tary remarks from the courtly represen- tatives of Mexico. The boys are kept under a rigorous drill, and at the same time are treated with proper kindness and indulgence. The lecture season is beginning in ear- nest. Popular lecturers are pulling out for the fiftietli or one hundredth time, thumb-worn discourses n “ Lost Arts," and poems about “Golden Calves.”- Lectures are patronised a great deal by a class of people who are not fashionable enough in their faster for opera, and too scrupulous for theatre going. I speak of the patrons of those pretty essayists of lectures, who deliver a string of very neatly-expressed common places, in a very unexceplioiiable manner. But there are some lectures by distinguished trav- eleis—illusirative lectures, which call out fine audiences. Between Thalberg’s magnificent Concerts and the LaGrange Opera, we have enough now in the way of amusements. A coutralto of wonder- ful abilities has lately engaged with Tllalberg. P. T. Barnum goes to Eu- rope, on a liberal salary, in charge of Gen.Tom Thumb. Next week, Aptom- mas begins his popular " Harp Soirees.” Gov. Clark was thrown from his horse during the Parade in this city, on Evac- uation Day, but escaped uninjured. The principal event of that day was the an nual excursion of the Veterans of 1812. There is quite a fralel: nity of these vete- rans in the city, and they are generally men of noble presence. The trial of Baker dzrage along slowly, and is now almost as interesting as a glass of dead soda water is palatable. Fruit seems to be very high in our markets this fall. Two or three daily papers, which sprung up during the political campaign, have given up the ghoiat this last week. NORWALK.

Judge Haliburlon tells a Vt‘l'y..l£lllgl!?‘--I ble story about the first piallo ever heard in Illinois: A Baltimore Physician having remov- ed, with his family, to a settlement near the Illinois River, during the earlier pe- riod of emigration ihiiher, with his goods and chattels stowed away in seven large wagons, excited no little wonder and consternation among the ba-ckwoodsmen on their appearance, in those fill‘ off re- gions. whose inhabitants had “ never seen the like before.” " Glass——this side up with cars l--—- Why, I thought this ere fellow was a Doctor. What on yearili is he going to do with that box of winders ?" said one. " This side up, with care," exclaimed another ; " he's got paragoric and ile of spike fixings in that. Won't be physio them augur fellere on the river !" In the last wagon, there was but one large box, and on it were painted the words, " Piano Forie,—keep dry, and handle carefully.” It required all the this box, and great was the curiosity ex- cited. " Pine forte,” said a tall, yellow haired fever-and-ngue looking youth ; “ wonder if he's afraid of the injuns? He can’t scare ’ein with a pine forts” , “K e e p d r y,” spelt by a large, raw-boned looking man, who was evi- dently a liberal patron of ' old bald face.’ He broke off at at the letter y, with- “ D-n your temperance carraciure! you needn't. come round here with yer tracts.” He was interrupted at this point by a stout built personage, who cried out : “ He's got his skeletons in thar, and he's afeered to give ’em likker, for they'll break ont if he does.” “ Handle carefully,” said a man with a red hunting shirt, and the size of whose fist was twice that of an ordinary man's. " There's some live critter in that-— don’t you hear him groan ?" This was said as the box struck the ground, and the concussion caused a vibration of the strings.” No sooner had all hands let go, than the doctor was besieged by his neighbors to know what was the meaning of the word “ pianoforte.” On his telling them it was a musical instrument, some ‘reck- oned it would take a iarnal sight of wind to blow it;’ others, that ‘ it would take a lot of men to make it go.’ The doctor explained as well as he could, but he could only get rid of-- his inquisitive neighbors by promising them a sight at an early day. l Three days elapsed, and all was ready for the reception of the " vizlers,” and Miss E was to act as first perform- er. The doctor had but to open the door, and half a score of men were ready to enter. Some went directly up to the instrument ‘ critter,’ as it had been call- ed on account of its four legs; some, more shy, remained close to the door; while others, who had never before seen a carpet, were observed walking round on the stripe of bare floor, lest by tread- ing on " the handsome caliker,” they might "spile it.” The first tune seemed to put the whole company into ecstacies. The raw-boned man, who was much opposed to temper- ance tracte, pulled out a flask of whiskey and insisted that " the gal," as he called Miss E., should drink. Another laid down a dime, and wanted " that worth" out of the " forty pains,” as the name had come to him after traveling through five or six pronunciations. Anoiher,wiih a broad grin on his face, declared that he would give his “ claim," and all the “ truck" on it, if his “ darier” could have such a “ cupboard.” The " pine forte" man suggested that, if that sort of music had been in the Black Hawk war, “ they would have skeered the Iiljuns all hol- ler." The result may easily be anticipated ; the ladies were long tired of playing ere their " vizters” were tired of hearing.- 'I‘he whole country, for twenty miles round. rang with the praise of Dr. A.’s " consarn,” the -‘ musical cupboard.”-— Patients came in crowds for advice or a " few agur pills,” all determined to ap- pear in person, but ilone of whom would leave without hearing the ‘ forty pains ;' and the physician, thanks to -' the first pianoforte in Illinois,” becalne one of the first men of the State.

Mr. Ed-itor——'l‘he VVolnaii’s Rights ' Convention have held several sessions ill the Broadway Tabernzu,-le, commcilciilg Tuesday morning and ending Wednes- day night. The speakers were Lucy Stone, Paulina W. Davis, Lucretia Molt, Ernestine L. Rose, Horace Greeley, and a number of others. Some of the ad- dresses were well delivered and well re- ceived. The affalr passed off well. Oil‘ Tuesday evening last, the Ninth Ward Republican Association, had a grand time at their rooms in Bleecker Buildings. The building was illumina- ted, and in spite of llle storm which was then raging, the room inside was crowd- ed. Tilis demoiislpntion was held in honor of the election of the whole Re- publican ticket in this State. Tlle weather in the city at present, is varying, rain and shine, continually re- miliding one of April showers; varied a little today by a dash of rain and snow. Our fashionable thoroughfare, Broadway, is throllged with beauty and fashion ev- ery pleasant afierlioon, especially be- tween the hours of 3 and 6. To a strain- ger. it affords an agreeable stroll during the promenade hour. The Theatres offer at present superior entertainments. Laura Keene’s new building was opened, after long expecta- tion, about a week ago. It is situated in Broadway, between Bleecker and Hans- ton streets. The opening performance consisted of Shakspeare’s comedy, “ As you ,Like it.” The company is large, and comprises some of the best talent in the city. The performance, this week, is a new piece, eniil__led, " Young New York.” The scene is laid in New" York and Saraioga—-lime, August and September, 1856. Miss Laura Keene sustains the character of" Miss Rose Ten-per-cent," a fashionable New York belle, said to be taken from life. Bur- ton’s, Wallack’s, Chambers Street, and the Nation, all offer superior bills. At N'iblo’s, Mr. Thalberg, the great pianist, still holds his sway, varied with emer- tainmenis by the Ravel Troupe. At the Academy of Music, the Italian Opera appears to be in full blast. At the Amer- ican Museum, Gen. Tom Thumb has just completed an engagement of several weeks. Speaking of the Museum, I see in the papers that P. T. Barnum has gone. to Europe, in company with Mr. George C. Howard and their daughter, Cordelia Howard, who have lately made such a sensation at the National Theatre in the great play of “ Dred. At the Bowery, Manager Brougham still holds out nightly to the admiration of the New York news-boys, no doubt greatly invig- orated by his laie trip to Philadelphia. The Broadway is still closed, Thanks- giving Day has passed, and New York- ers will rest content until Christmas and New Years. So we go on, day after day. Yours, &c.. P. DDNTAL ESTABLISHMENT.
