There is to be great Western and Southern
Convention OF Memphis, Tenn, on the 18th inst.
The object of the Convention, as we learn from
our exchanges, is to urge upon Congress to pro-
vide for the removal of snags and other impedi-
ments in the western and southwestern rivcrs;to
reduce the tolls of the canal at the falls of the
Ohio; to establish National Foundry and Armo-
ry on the western waters; TO establish one OF

MOrnonIsm.

There has been a feud and division among
the Momons. When Joe Smith, the head i'm.
poster, was killed, there was struggle for the
lascendency; Sidney Rigdon thought that he
ought to be the next in command, but he was de-
fealed and denounced. Emma Smith, the wild
ow, seemed disposed to be the spiritual ruler,
but her claims were not recognized; VIM Smith.
the brother of Joe, set himself up as Patriarch,
but the other Mormon leaders would not give
him the control of their affairs. Brigham Young
and the Council Of Twelve, then took upon
themselves the spiritual and temporal govern
ment of the Mormons They propose to remove
all the saints beyond the Rocky Mountains, and
there sci up for themselves. To this VIM. Smith,
the pretended Patriarch, is violently opposed and
he ressts it with all his power. He fayors the
plan Of the dispersion of the Mormohs and their
Isetllementas other denominations throughout The
country; but is in favor Of an adherence TO their
religious absurdities and superstitious observan-
ices. He thinks that if their religious and politi.
cal embodiment in separate communities were
abandoned, that the violent opposition TO them
would cease, and that they would enjoy more
peace. He denounces Young and his adherents,
and the feud between them seems to be very Vi
olent. The mass of the Mormons appear to ad-
here to Young and his party as aflordng the best
chance 10 carry out the objects and purposes of
their fanatical association.--.St Louis Era.

Dreadful Accident!

Steamboat Collision The Plymouth Sunk--
1lpenty Lipes lost--From passengers on the
steamboat Mail, which arrived here last night,
says the Louisville Journal Of the 29th ult., we
learn that the steamboat Plymouth, bound TO ST.
Louis, with large number Of passengers, was
run into by the Lady Madison, near Shawnee
town, on Monday night, which caused the P. to
sink Immediately 10 her boiler deck. None Of
the cabin passengers we're lost, but It supposed
that twenty deck passengers, if not mole, were
drowned. A hole was Immediately cut through
the cabin floor, and several passengers, who had
managed to keep out of the water by getting on
boxes, &C., were thus rescued The boat, il is
said, will be total loss. Her machinery will
probably be saved.
We also learn that passenger on the Mail,
who was insane jumped overheard and was lost.

The Union of the 23d ult. has an article on
this subject which contains intmatons indicative
of the future course oflhe Administration on this
momentous issue.
"In addition TO our manifest and indsputable
right TO the sod of the Oregon territory" says
the Union, ga right derived at once from discov-
cry, from exploration, from contiguily, from oc.
cupalion, and from solemn treaty stipulatons--.
in additont to all this overwhelming mass of title
in the soil, we have another mighty hold upon
the region, in the resistless affinity to us and tc
our institutions of the population which is grow
ing on within its limits. There arc iumors in
the public journals that temporary and prov

by the dwellers on the Oregon. Such govern
ment can be merely temporary and provisional
The offspring of necessity, it will, we are assu

Lynch Law,

Lynch Law had its origin in 1850. A num-
'ber of citizens of Pittsylvania county, Virginia,
entered into combination for the purpose OF
suppressng the depredatons of trained band
of horse thieves and counterfeters, whose well
executed schemes had long bidden defiance TO
the ordinary laws of the land, and whose success
encouraged and embodened them in their OUT
RACES upon the community. The constitution
adopted for their government bears date Sept22,
1850, it provides for visiting the guilty offenders
with summaryjustice," The constitution hay-
ing been drawn up by Col. VIM LYNCH, has gi-
ven TIE name of "Lynch Lalo'' to the summary
