The CULTIVATION OF Flowers is, Of
all the amuscments mankind, the one
to be selected and approved as the one
most innocent in itself, and most per-
fcctly devoid of injury or annoyance to
others; the employment is not only con
duciye to health and peace Of mind,
but, probably, more good will has arisen
and friendships been foundcd,by the in
tcrcousc and communication connected
with this pursuit, than from any other
whatever; the pleasures, the ccstacics
Of the horiculturalist are harmless and
pure; a streak, n tint, a shade, become
his triumph, which, though often obtain
ed by n chance, are secured alone by
morning care, by evening caution, and
the vigilance Of days; nm employ which,
in its various grades, excludes neither
the opulent northe INDECENT and ,tccming
with boundless variety, affords an un-
ocasing excitement io emulation without

The Lecture by the Rev. DR.. WAR
REN, Agent for the American Coloni-
zation Society, delivered at the Spring
street Church, in this town, OH Sunday
evening last, was attended by most
crowded and respectable auditory, and
listened to with every manifestation OF
pleasure and satisfaction by all present
We do not feel ourselves competent
and therefore shall not attempt to give
even an outline of his interesting and
able lecture, replete as it was with facts
and arguments touching the benevolent
formation and operations of the society.
One thing, however, he very clearly
explained, and which heretofore, by ma
ny, has not been SO fully understood, -
that the American Colonization Society
was never intended to effect the work
of emancipation-to bring about the abo-
lition of slavery in this country.-That
was matter, he said, they profcsscd to
have nothing to do with. 1t was solely
the business of the Shareholder, whose
consent must first be obtained, and the
Society never designed or proposed to
mcddlc with it. Their object was sim
ply to take the slaves after they were
liberated, with their own free will and
consent, without expense to them, to-
gethcr with all those free blacks who
felt disposed to better their condition,
and provide for them, and put them in
a way of clovating and improving them
selves, as he amply illustrated they were
abundantly capable Of lie went as far
as the most jealous aboliiionist would
go, in regard to the intellectual capaci-
ties of the colored race, and cited some
very cogcnt proofs in support orhis pc
silion-ard spoke with great carncs st =
ness against the horrid traffic in human
blood. lie also maintained that the
Society, by colonizing tho shores of
Africa, was immcasurably instrumental
in arresting that inbuman traffic, by
dlniising moral and religious principles
among them, and uplifting them from
their degraded condition. Whether DIR.
w. was entirely succ, sslu in convinc-
ing all his auditors in relation to the
purely benevolent and disin,crcsted

1t is rumorcd abroad, and recently
the report assumes shape somewhat
tangible. that if the administration par
ty should succeed in carrying New Jcr-
scy, they will appoint one for Governor
who will be hardy enough to give to the
Van Buren candidates for Congress
certificates of having been legally elcc-
ted. TO DO this they must take the a
lien votes of South Amboy and Millvillo
for legal votes,& must act in direct con-
traricty to the Election Law oftbc state
at present in force. We have already
seen that violation Of existing laws is
but slight obstacle to the go ahead"

portunity of working mischief No

The FEVER IN THE SoUTH has scarce
ever been SO universally prevalent, and
fatal withal, as it has during the present
season. The accounts from the large
Commercial cities arc gloomy in the
extreme, and instead Of growing bet
ter, the epidemic is daily assuming a
moro deadly aspect. In addition to the
accounts published in another column,
VIC subjoin an extract of letter from
NEW ORLEANS, under date Of Sept 9th,
to a gentleman in this place, which III
deed gives most melancholy picture
of their condition at the present time.
"There is but very limited busi-
ness doing in our City. The prevailing
Epidemic, which is on the increase,
will prevent strangers coming out, and
cut Off our intercourse with the coun-
try. 1t is quite task to write-the
heat is so intense, and the muschitoes
worse than any person ever recollects
them here. Whilst | write, | am al
most dovoured. The yellow fever has
not been 50 bad for the last 90 years
almost every one l know is down, and
no vehicles to be seen but Doctors
gigs, and hearses. 1t makes one
miserable to witness the state of this
City. 1t would fill sheet of paper to
give you all the names Of our mutual
friends and acquaintanccs who are

- CONVENTION AT KiNGsrON.--We
publish below call for a Convention
to be held at Kingston, during the next
session Of the General Assembly. The
resolutions adopted by the highly re-
spectacle meeting from which the call
cmanatcd, must meet the hearty appro-
val Of every friend and advocate OF
sound Wing principles. There never
was time when prompt and decisive
action OH the part of the Wings, in
support of the cause in which they are
engaged, was more absolutely nccessa-
ry than at the present. We have no
doubt therefore that tho proposed Con-
vention will be numcrously attended,
and spirit manifested commensurate
with tho Importance Of the occasion
which called it forth. Every town in
the State, we hope and trust will be
fully representative number Of dele
gates, it will be seen, being left discre-
tionary with the several towns.
At meeting of freeholders Of Rhode Is
lad, from different parts of the State, con-
vened at Providence, on the 9th of Septem-
her, 1889, for the purpose of taking into con-
sideration the influence of the general
government in the affairs of this State and
the unauthorized and unprecedented inter.
ference ofcertaiD politicians Of neghboring
State, in our institutions, as shown by petit
ton published in tho New York Evening
Post, an organ Of the administration, and
calling upon Congress without tho consent
of or even consultation with the people OF
this State, to destroy our suffrage laws:-
William Rhodes, Esq, of Warwick, was cal
led to the Chair, and Henry b. Anthony and
Edward II. Hazard appointed Secretaries.
The following resolutions were offered and
unanimously adopted, as the sense Of the
meeting:
sin view of the alarming interference of
officers of the general government in the
elections of this State, and the gradual en-
croachments of Executive power upon the
rights and liberties of the people, and the
prostitution of the influence, the patronage
and the treasury Of the government, to party
purposes ;-and more particularly in view of
| , IN, po;,,I
boring State, on the part Of the pcnsioned
officers and pensioned presses Of the general
government, to interfere with our election
laws, and alter our qualifications for vot-
ing:-
Resoired, Tint it is highly expcdent that
the good citizens, particularly the landhold.
ers, the mechanics, The artizans and the bust
ness men Of this State, should completely
and effectually organize themselves ngains,
such attempts and in defence of their rights,
their liberties, and their ancient and time
hallowed institutions.
Resolred, That for this purpose the diiIef-
ent towns in this State, be respectfully inv.
ted to elect such number Of delegates as they
may think proper, TO meet at the State House
in Kingston, on Thursday, the 3lst day OF
October, at s o'clock, p. NJ, to take into con-
sidcration what measures and what action
are demanded by the exigency Of the occa-
sion.
II V0fcd That these resolutions he stoned bv
the Chairman and Secretaries, and published
in the several newspapers in this State"

MAINE ELECTION.

We have returns from most Of the
towns in Maine. Fairfield is re- elected
by as large n majority, probably, as he
received last year. The Wings did not
make any exertions, in expectation of
success at this time. Both branches of
the Legislature, will be Loco Foco, as
they were last year. In Portland throo
Whig represe sentatives were chosen, and
there is one vacancy, owing to the abo-
litionists having run candidate in op-
position to the Wings. Tho vote for
Governor in Portland stood, Kent II64,
Fairfield 94I; in Bath, Kent 488, Fair
field 237; Brunswick, Kent 375, Fair
field 266. The votes in the towns heard
from show II great falling off, compared
with those given last year, and tho d.
mnution on the Wing side is greater
than on the Loco Foco.
The following statement from tho
Portland Advertiser, shows how this hap
pened -
