_ I The State Convention.

 E, I ‘We. observe that some of our contemporaries
‘ of the Press, especially in New Haven and

Hartford, are indulging in speculations as to

 ., the -exact character of the political doctrines

which may or mayuot be put forth in the

,, _.Convention which is to assemble on the_8th of

. X . January. ~

. ._ We believe that the Convention of the 8th

will be composed of a body of men who will

 »: act upon principle, and we trust that they will

act wisely and do what they think" fair and
‘ right, unbiased byany forestaliing action of
* the-‘city press. The Convention will undoubt-
-edly be able to take care of itself, and we can
-see nogoodand much embarassinent as likely

’ to grow ont‘of these special efforts to govern

‘ 1' and shape its action in advance. -

We do'_hope that our friends of the City

 ‘, Preeswill, forronce, exercise a little common

sense; and be satisfied to let the people speak
3 “and act" for themselves.
Since writing the above we find the follow-

 ing in the Hartford Courant, which exactly
 expresses our views:
. -. .‘_‘.The carfully considered call of the

State Convention to be held at New
Haven‘, on the 8th of January, invited
_“ all opposed to the present National
Administration and to the principles of

I ~. the Cincinnati platform," to send delega-

= ‘tes. This call includes, with the 42,715
~ Fremonters, the 9.615 Fillmore men;

givingan aggregate of 45,330 voters,who
' are invited to combine, to overmaster

,, | the 34,995 voters who support Bluchanf

"any Shamocracy. Now all the world

Jknows, that these 45,330 men do not
‘ agree on all points even of their political

. creed. What then! Is that any reason

'_'_why: they should not combine a point
.' upon which they do agree !—Our under-
_ ‘standing of the approaching Convention

is that our friends are to meet and settle

" the pionts of agreement, not the mattres
 _ot'd_¢'fl'erence. We are not toiuquirc into
 ‘antecedent. It is none of our buisness
' whether a man has been an American,
‘__j_or.a Republican, or a Fillmore man.-

The sole question is, Does he agree with
his associates on the matters specified in
thecall ? If so, enough said. Noman

‘."is asked to repudiate his past : no man is

expected to apologize for to conceal
his antecedens. We all stand on the
"same level. No section has a right to
ask that its peculiar idiosyneracles' should
_ be endorsed. Every man that has a mind
:of his own, has of course some peculiar
notions; but if he is a man of mere than
:one idea, he has sense enough to know
how ‘far such notion is peculiar to him-

‘ ‘self, and how far he has the sympathy

of the world about him, in such notion.
We go for a short creed ; and a hearty
no-operation in the specific matters
agreed upon, leaving every individual to
enjoy his, peculiarities, outside of that
(need. in his own individual fashion.
Such, afterfree consultation, with lead-
ing Americens in this quarter, is our
settled policy.

 

- g‘-The burning ‘of ‘a well stored barn is
certainly a serious matter to make light of, as
the whale is said to have suggested when a
harpoon assaultwas made upon his blubber,
hilt" among the many expressions of sympathy
and condolence for the loss sustained by our
esteemed fellow citizen, Judge Smith, none
have -borne a more practical and cheerful
character. than one we heard the other" day
coming from the honest heart of one whose
mind naturally takes a peculiarly agricultural
turn, and which if the deduction be true, the
burning of aibarn and heavy stock of hay and
oats, may after all proves blessing. The con-
gratulation consisted in calling the J udge’s
attention to the enormous pile of unleashed
ashes he would have to sow on his grass lands
next Spring! We do not know, after all, but
thhl. the Judge ought to relinquish his moiety
of insurance ;weconfess that our abtnseness of
intellect, with all dur natural fondness for ru-
i-aliarte;-had~ not led us to contemplate the
loss in the light of so capital an investment.

ffif We give on our fourth page a full de-
scription of Peabody’s new seedling Strawber-
ryfwhich we have no doubt will be read with
special interest by our fruit amateurs. A out,
true to nature, may be seen at our olflce, and
any of. our friends desiring to enter the list
for _a dozen plants can have their orders for-
warded by leaving them at this ofiice.

Society proposes Festival and Supper at their
Church, as a forestallment of the Holidays.

 

,5“ Our Steamer commenced her winter ar-
rangements of two trips per week, on Thurs-
day last. _ ‘She now leaves New York every
Tuesday and Thursday, at 12 M., and Nor-

seems to be doing a comfortable business, but
nothing like the amount which could and
should be conferred by those whose interests
are enhancedby keeping a good boat upon the
route. _ .

The Town Meeting.
The business. transacted at the adjourned
T0}gg_,Me,eting, last Monday was very import-'"
an} ‘In itscharacter. 3The various petty offi-
cers of thetown were chosen, after which the
annual statement of the Selectmen was read,
the School Committee’s Report, die. The re-
port of the Selectmen was referred to an and-

the past four years,) consisting of Thomas B.
Butler, Isaac S. Beers, Wm. C. Street, Eben

at a meeting to be held the last Wednesday of
January, as per adjournment. They are to
suggest ways and mepne whereby the gown ex.

years past been a clerk in the famous Clothing
Emporum of P. C. Barnum dc Co., but in com-
pany with Mr. Hawley, also a Connecticut
man, they have commenced business for them-
selves, under very fiattering auspices. They
have their goods made to order and wcllmadey
and moreover whatever statements they make
concerning them can be implicitly relied upon

Slavc Insurrects'ol.—There appears
to be considerable excitement in some
parts of the South, in regard to an an-
ticipated Slave insurrection.
the apprehensions of the people are
founded, it is difficult to known at pres-
ent. Itis stated by a correspondent of
the Louisville Journal, that 24 muskets
and two kegs of powder had been found
in the possession of a gang of negroes at
columbia, Tenn., 15 negroes had been
killed by their owners. The Evans-
ville Jonrnal of the 6th inst, learns that
there was much excitement in the neigh-
borhood of Dover,.on the Cumberland
river, among the negroes. Many of
the ringleaders had been arrested and
eleven hung. One white man disguised
as negro had been sentenced to 900 lash-

as, but died before the penalty was fully
iuflicted. Au opinion prevailed that a

general uprising would take place among
the negroes during the holidays. Es-
capes of slaves were unusually numer-
ous. ~

Our New York Correspondence.
N1-:w YORK, Dec. 12, 1856.

Until the clouds opened their batte-
ries upon us yesterday morning, we had
been ‘luxuriatihg in bright December
days, the very best working weather of
the whole year. Now we are engaged
in speculating on the probabilities of an-
other hard winter. Philosopher Merri-
am, from his elevated look-out on Brook-
lyn Heights, has discovered that ‘people
had better prepare for cold weather, be-
cause if it does not come, they will only
have additional reason to be thankful.
Merriam is a philosopher. _

Wall street stock gambling is begin-
ning to attract more and more the at-
tention of that sober, moderately in-
formed part of the community, who
have been accustomed to take it for
granted that every sale made under the
shadow of the Merchant's Exchange,
must be a bona fide business transac-
tion. Men sell every day, thousands of
shares in concerns whose scrip they nev-
or had a sight of, and never expect to.
Their only object is to make every stock
company in the country,'a faro ' wheel
on which they can bet borrowed money.
Their employment is only a more res-
pectable way of hiding the "little jo-
ker" under the thimble.

The passion for gambling seems to
be on the increase among us. Men are
hot with desire of sudden riches. Their
lives are short, their pleasures are cost-
ly, and they must have money faster than
they can make it in the ordinary process
of business. So we have a constantly
increasing list of gambling houses, most
luxuriously furnished, and located in
fashionable quarters of the city. There
are laws enough in the statute book
against places of this sort, but men who
are qualified to take charge of a New
York gambling establishment, are gene-
rally " posted up," know the ropes and
can pull the wires. They command a
large number of votes which are certain’
to be thrown against any official who
takes effective measures to carry out the
anti-gambling laws. So the faro-banks
are kept up in magnificent style, and a
race of fancy men exist on the enor-
mous profits. These fancy men are the
heavy betters in rings, and at the Long
Island race-courses. Theyficame out in
full force the other day to witness a
shooting match between Travis and Sam
Snydam, a well known character about
town. The two shot at a iife-size hu-
man figure, at the distance of ten paces,
forty shots, for $1.000 a side. Travis
men. This exhibition brought out in
full force a tribe who are very rarely to
be seen together during day-light. As
a class they are suspiciously well
dressed, moustachy, coarse featured, fond
of gay colored vests, dangling fob chains
and big seals.

Huntington's trial comes off on the
i5th. Emulous of his example, or that
of Charpentier, another Wall-st. opera-
to! has left for parts unknown, hearing
some 320.000 of other people's money.
What is singular about this case is, that
the swindler is a man of some ,sixty
years and has always sustained an un-
blemished reputation until now. He
was the financial writer of the Courier
and Enquirer, and had obtained credit
with the principal bankers on the street,
by the ability with which he had filled
that position for the last. twenty years

Louis Napoleon referred several delicate
family matters, has reported, we learn
from the Paris correspondent of Le
Nord, of Brussels, upon the important
question of the Prince J erome’s first
marriage with Miss Paterson in Ameri-
ca. The commission confirms the va-
lidity of his marriage, wnich was always
maintained by the Pope, to the great
annoyance of Napoleon. In consequence
of this decissiou the grandson of Prince
Jerome and Miss Patterson, who is a
young sub-lieutenant in the French at

Mit. Eni'rou.—There is little news of
any importance to communicate. A lie-
gro insurrection in several of the South-
ern Statee has been timely and forth.
nately for the slave holding community
discovered and timely suppressed. Fif-
teen negroes have been hung, a white
man whipped to death and other acts of
such kind committed. The Evening
Post copies the following article form
the Somerville (Tenn.) State as indica.
ting the method used in punishing slaves
in that stat_e.

" Some weeks ago, during the insur-
rection excitement, we announced that
twenty-three negroes had been incarce-
rated by the sheriff Afterwards, upon
trial of habeas corpus, seventeen of them
were taken out, whipped and taken
home, and the remaining six were de-
tained for trial. On last Monday, these
were brought out and Zed before a re-
gular empanuslled jury and threejusti-
ces, who ordered that five of them should
be whipped four times in two weeks,
thirty-nine lashes each time, and as a
further punishment, that they should
stand in the pillory four times—au hour
each time. The sixth one being an older
man than the others, and for other con-
siderations also, received hut ten lashes."
From latest accounts all seems to be
quiet again. In our city there is some
talk about the new Post Office which is
to be erected, I understand pretty soon.
The steamer Atlantic arrived from Liv-
pool Tuesday morning bringing latest
European Intelligence. The English
papers are busily engaged discussing
the election its result and probable con-
sequence. The London Times hopes
that Mr. Buchanan now he is elected
will do all in his power to preserve in-
violate the peace and good will now ex-
isting between the two Counties. The
latest accounts from Spain state that the
troubles in Malaga are rapidly subsid-
ing and that peace and quiet will soon
reign throughout its borders. Numbers
of new buildings are "rapidly springing
up on Broadway. The Broadway
Theatre it is expected will soon be open-
ed with a superior company and Mr.

Forrest who will appear in some of his
best pieces. Our friends the Wood and

style the Drama of the Phantom Ship
in which Miss. Louise the popular young
actress of tips establishment appears in
character of Vanderdecken the misteri-
one mariner. and Most. Geo. W. Marsh
of the coackney sailor. Peter Van
Burmmel. On Friday evening last, the
scholars of Word School No. 42, situat-
ed in Allen Street gave a grand concert

Hagerstown box, says the Chronicle,
they discovered a love-letter among them

as the one whose name was attached to
the letter, the vote was, of course lost.

be one of the richest Political jUnuc vi:
the season, was perpetrated not long
since at a placecalled Frankiinville, near
the east end of Long Island, some six
miles east from Rivcrhead. Thinking
it may interest, and perhaps amuse some
of your readers, I will relate it. When
the result of the late election became
known, the Buchanan and Fillmore men
of Southold, Cutchogue and Mattituck.
resolved on hearing a jubilee, come what
would. So at it they went, mustered
their force—brought out the immortaj
fife and drum-—hoisted their banners and
transparencies, hitched up their horses
and started on their way rejoicing, cheer-
ing, groaning. drinking, singing, and in
short having a general jollification.

, On their arrival at F rankiinville they
drew up in front of a store owned, and
occupied by one Albertson, a strong
Fremonter who having heard of their
coming was prepared to receive them.
When the Buchanan men tried cheeing,
they were groaned down. They then
tried groaning, but their groans were
lost in the lusty cheers given by the
Fremonters. Finding they could make
nothing there, they made a start for
Jamesport, no doubt disgusted with
Frankiinville and its " Black Republi-
can” inhabitauts. While they were
gone, Albertson (knowing they would
return sometime during the night and
take advantage of the late hour to avenge
themselves for their former failure.) set
his wits at work to study out a plan by
which he could again defeat, and get
the joke upon them. After a little to-
flection he hit upon the following :

In front of his store was a railing, be-
tween which and the building people
were accustomed to drive their teams
when they wished to stop at the store.
Upon this railing was laid a train of
powder. Some ten or dozen guns were
then collected and charged with powder,
when they were placed in the hands of
as many Fremont men, with instuctions
how they were to be used.

All things being new in readiness,
they retired to asmall shed which was
attached to the store, and there awaited
the return of the Buchaneers and their
Fillmore Aliies—resolved to be on hand
though they should be compelled to
wait until the dawn of day. It was late
when they returned, and it was said they
were rather spiritually minded. But
return they did at last, and again drew
up between the store and the railing
where they halted, All arose to their
feet when one who acted as Captain of
the inotly crew, announced three cheers
would first be given for buchanan, after
which would follow three more for Fill-
more.’ Now” said he, " Three cheers
for Buchanan! Hip! Hip !” But oh,
horror of Horrors! just as they had
fairly opened their months for the “ Hur-
rah” that was to follow, the heavens
were suddenly lighted up with a lurid
fiash—explosion followed explosion-
the horses frightened first pricked up
their care, then reared, plunged forward
and finally darted off at the top of their
speed. leaving the smell of brimstone
far behind them as they could, the whole
company were participated to the bottom
of the waggon, all in a heap, without
any regard to their pollitcal proclivities,
and the last heard of them as their voices
were dying away in the distance, they
were crying Woe! Wool! Whether
those cheers have ever yet been given,
or whether their months are still open,is
not positively known. But one thing is
very certain—-the people of Franklin-
ville have lost the benefit of them, and
feelling their loss deeply, they refuse to
to be comforted. C. F. S.

A C'on_fesss'on.—The Norwich Post-

up that his party cannot expect sucsess

the following. paragraph, to despair,
though he tries to keep the courage to
his readers,-—he evidently has some him

self.

“ The is a bad looking balance sheet
for us to commence business on in the
Spring, supposing our opponents able to

and Congressional ticket, and supposing
futher that this enormous vote this fall
was legitimate, and will be again within
their control. We have no faith that
either of these suppositions will be reliz-

wide margin, and they may approach
near a realization ihan will be altogether
comfortable.”

The Whitfield case was resumed.
and the House reconsidered the vote re-
fusing to allow Mr. Whitfield to be
sworn, by lll agriust 108.

Mr. Grow moved that the whole sub-
ject be referred to the Com. on Elec-

The oath was then ordered to be _ad-

Mr. Whitfield took the oalli.

WASHINGTON, Dec 10.

Senate.-- Mr. Pugh made an elabo-
rate speech, taking seriatim, and reply-
ing to arguments and accusations made
against the President's message, and
citing judicial authorities to prove the
President correct, and eulogizing him
for his official course in, regard to the
rights of the South.

Mr. Clay introduced a bill for an act
to graduate and reduce the price of pub-
lic lands to actual settlers and cultiva-
LOIS. I

Mr. Bigler replied to the remarks of
Trumbull relative to his construction of
Mr. Dunn's bill, that it established
slavery. He contended that his con-
struction was correct, and sustained him-
self by the. report of Mr. Douglass.

Mr. Trumbull rejoined denying that
Mr, Douglass’ report represented the bill
"fairly, and thus the Senator from Penn.
derived no support from that report.

Mr. Pugh remarked that while he
should have considered the election of
Col. Fremont as the greatest calamity
that could have befallen ,the American
people, he had no reproaches to cast up-
on those honest and patriotic, but as he
believed, misguided citizens, who voted
for him.

House —Mr. Keitt charged the Re-
publicans with this session re-opening
slave agitation, by objecting to allow
Mr. Whitfield to be sworn in. The
President arraigned the Repnblicaifs with
seeking to interfere with the domestic
institutions of southern States. He ask-
ed Mr. Washburne it the Republicans
had the power, whether they would
not so change the Conststution as to
emaucipate slaves.

Mr. Keitt further inquired whether
he would not do that by progressive
gardination.

Mr. Washbnrne was willing that the
principles ofiudependence. and the dec-
laration of independence that that insti-
tution and the christian religion should
have free course to run and be glorified,

Mr. Stanton said he and his constitu-
ents will abide by the Constitution as it
is. They seek no change, will insis
on its original construction as put in
practice by its framers.

Mr. Washburne replied that he would
not certainly object. to a change giving
thepower to the Federal Government,
to do what Jefferson, Madison, and Gen.
Scott, desired, namely, to ameliorate
slavery, even to emancipationzs

Mr. Keitt contended that the Presi-
ident was correct in charging on the
Republicans revolutionary designs.

Mr. Giddings advocated the doctrine
laid down in the Declaration of Indepen
dence, that every man has a right to
life, liberty and the pursuit ofhappiness.
The South deny this doctrine, and the
North dare not say aye or nay. They
are between heaven and hell. He hated
oppression. God and all good men, and
the Republican party, hated slavery.

Mr. Morrison said the Republican
party was a sectional organization, and
be thanked the President for his con-
demnation of it. Adjourned

l? Mrs, King, near Kingston, C. W.
was recently taken sick, and her bus-
band seized the opportunity to elope
with a handsome servant girl named
Miss Martin. Arrived in Albany, Miss
M. eloped with a young man named Cor-
nelius and Mr, King's money. Mr. King
being penitent, returned home and found
that his wife had eloped with a dry
goods clerk named Jeffers, and all the
moveable articles in the house. Where-
upon Mr. K. started off in pursuit, con-
sidering himselfa deeply injured man.
We don't know about that.

The Vermont Donation to Kansas.
—The New York Courier and Enquir-
er speaks as. follows of the wise and
generous appropriation recently made by
the Vermont Legislature for the relief

of suffering in Kansas.

The appropriation of twenty tliousaud
dollars, recently made by the Legisla-
ture of Vermont for the relief of her
citizens in Kansas, reduced to destitu-
tion by the warfare of the border ruf-
fians, gives additional lustre to the
character of that noble State. It shows
that she has a heart quick to feel and a
hand prompt to respond. Kansas has
-no more intelligent, honest settlers, than
those who have gone from the Green
Mountain State; and border rnffianism
has had to encounter no more indom-
itabls adversaries. But the continued
aggressions of their enemies have strip-
ped them of their substance, and so iii-
ierfered with their peaceful industry as
to leavetliem in an ill condition to en-
counter the rigors of the coming winter;
and their native State has been true to
herself and true to freedom, in thus
ampiy providing for their relief.

“ In Peace prepare for Wa.r.”—In

appropriate remedies to prevent the hair

impart to it a healthy growth, and even
