1--WE find the following in the Baltimore
Republican of Wednesday morning. We
suppose it hardly probable that the Teller
could have been SO long making his way to
Vieksburg:
The Vicksburg Sentinel of the 23d April.
says: "Dabney, the absconding teller of the
BANK OF Virginia, passed down the river on
,he 10Th inst. on board the Great Western,
having either bought or chartered the boat to
enable him more rapidly to escape the pur-
SUIT oil justice. The Bank of Virginia has of
tered three thousand dollars reward. in addi-
ton to the two hundred offered by the Cover
nor, for his capture.
eve are informed that the Diana left
Vicksburg two hours and half before the
Great Western, and that both boats were close
together near Red Church, putting on all
steam.
"fhe Great Western passed down without
stopping at Nlcksburg, and we are told she
did not stop at Natchez."-RicA. Comm.

THE VAN BUREN, CONVENTION

This body adjourned on "Wednesday the
9th inst, after having passed two resolutions
one nominating Martin Van Buren, as a
candidate for the Presidency at the next cleo
tion-the other declaring it expedient to
waive nomination of candidate for the
Vice Presidency. leaving it to each State to
make its nomination for that office. The
first resolution was passed unanimously, the
other gave rise to some debate. A letter from
Col *. Nj. Johnson was read, stating that he
neither solicited denomination nor declined
it. Gov. WIN. Carroll of Tennessee presi-
ded, assisted by six Vice Presidents.

OBITUARY..

Departed this life on Monday the llth inst.
III the I'D year of her age, after tedious i'll
ness, Mrs. ANN BLACKBURN, consort and rel
let of the late Gen. Samuel Blackburn OF
this county. The deceased was remarkable
tor vigorous intellect, clear perceptions and
sound Judgment. Prudence, therefore, char
acterlzed her course, and wisdom the arrange
ment and management of her concerns. Her
friendships were formed with caution, and
her adherence to them only equalled by the
discrimination manifested in forming them.
Mrs. blackburn was, and long had been a
consistent member ofthe Presbyterian church,
and her influence and liberality will cause
her loss TO be deeply felt by that Christian
Society in this place.-CoM.

STEAm ON COMMON RoADs.-A Mr.. Charles
Dietz OF France has succeeded in propelling
carriages over common roads by means Of
steam. An experiment has been recently
made, according to report read in one Of
the french Institutes, in which two LARGE
omniousses filed with people, were attached
10 tow-carTiage, and drawn for several
rhlies at the rate OF ten miles an hour. The
Velncie could be guided in any direction,
without disturbing the equability of its mo-
!ion. Companies are forming to bring the
invention into immediate use.
