State Convention

Messrs. S. +. Chase. Sam'l Lewis, p.
r. Pullan. Amos Moore. and Stanley
Matthews have issued call for ''Liber-
"" State Convention at Columbus on the
18th to June next. As reasons for this
movement they say:
4 call is in circulation for signatures
and will soon be issued. inviting all the op-
ponents of the extension of Slavery. to
assemble in Convention of the people.
on the same day and at the same place
1t is probable that the question Of the
Exclusion Of Slavery from National Ter
ritories will make the great and paramount
issue of the approaching Presidential Elec-
ton. 1t is possible that candidate may
be nominated by the Wing or Democratic
Party. who will represent our views on this
question. Failing in such a nomination.
the signs Of the time indicate that the
Friends Of Freedom will rally upon this
question and present an independent can
didate for the sutirages of the People.
Liberty men should consider all the
duties which the crisis demands of them.
Before the time designated for our State
Convention. the course of the other parties
will have been fixed. BY that time we
shall know that our fellow citizens. who.
at present. limit their opposition to slavery
to its extension from the territory will do.
We shall then. be prepared ourselves to
determine. wisely and fully upon our own
course

(cenfIr,nen-The lamentabe accident conse-
quent upon the explosion and fro Of tho Pyro-
technic establishment Of NJ. c. Williams, on
Vine. Immediately north Of 9Th street. yesterday
morning, created quito sensation in the city.
Il being in the immediate vicinity Of the market,
and during the greatest throng Of market hours,
il seems almost miracle that more persons were
not injured, and but two lives lost in conse-
quence. There now appears to be settled do
termination amongst tho citizens that in future
the manufacture of Fire Works shall be carried
on beyond the limits OF the city. 1t certainly
ought not to be permitted in such densely Popu-
lated but this is tho first acci-
dent Of the kind it will probably escape the ban
Of the authorities. Another very destructive
fire occurred this morning on 9th street: suppo-
sed to be the work Of an incendiary.
