COLONIZATION CoNvENTIoN AT P1rrs.
RURGH.-Twenty seven delegates are
present-thirteen ofthem from Pittsburgh.
Ihey have resolved to sit only in the
evening. Mos! of the business seems to
3e' to hear certain Judge Breckenridge
read book he has written on Colonial
ton, which it is thought will occupy
three eUenings. Gov. Pinney is present,
and gives it as his opinion that the book
will prove very instructive. Unless the
Judge is very good reader, we are in
cllned to think it will turn out TO be "a
dream book" Dull music, that.
MIssIssIPPI.-Some estimate NAV be
placed on the situation of things in Mis-
slssippi, from the fact, that on a single
Offering day, upwards of five thousand
notes were rendered the Union Bank for
discount, amounting in the aggregate to
/ about 8 5,000,000l Great distress must
prevail, and the worst may not vet have
come. 1t is bitter thing to wake VI
from the dream of. exhaustless wealth, to
/ the reality of embarrassment and future
poverty and labor. Such, we fear, has
been the fate of many, and we trust that
their backs may be strengthened to the
burthen.-Neao- Orleans American.
There is Rev. Andrew Marshall,
man of color, pastor of church 10 Sa-
vannl, of 1900 members, who purchased
bis wife and children and gave 5000 for
himself, after he was so years old, and is
now worth 10000 dollars, and only aged
81. Verify, this looks like taking care
OF himself-Vo.ee of Freedom.
FIRE.-The store and goods of T. S.
EEldridge of Addison, was consumed by
fire on Friday night, April 26th. The
fire was not discovered until it came in
contact with the powder which exploded,
bursting open nearly every door and
window. The report alarmed the near
est neighbors. who on rising, discovered
the building to be all in flames. We un-
}derstaad that something over four thou
sand dollars Of goods, money and other
property, were burned, besides his books,
papers, &c. Not an article was saved
from the flames. The fire is supposed to
have taken from the stove-stili it could
not be ascertained, as it was so far ad-
vanced before discovered. There was an
insurance on the property of $780,
Vergennes Kermonter.
| EXAMINATION OF CLARK.-The ex-
animation of this fellow, who was arrest
ed fol attempting to blow up the Anti
Slavery Depository. last Wednesday eve
ming, took place before Justice Perkins,
last Saturday. After full examination
of the case, he was held TO bail in the
sum OF S4O0 to appear before the County
Court in this city, on the second Tuesday
of August next For want of bail he
was committed to prison. -Ha, ford Cour.
/ PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH CAsE.-The
Philadelphia National Gazette of Wednes-
day, gives the following result of this
J much mooted question 1t is doubted
whether the parties will proceed TO new
} trial. although one Is granted by the court !:
This morning Chief Justice Gibson

, ton fer new trial in the Presbyterian
case. The opinion was brief. consider
ing the mass of testimony, and the length

stating, for the most part, merely the con-
| cluslons to which the court had arrived,

1887, are not on y constitutional, but just;
