Moses Y Beach, the late proprietor of
the New York Sun, was recently prose-
cuted for libel before Judge Oakley Of the
Superior Court in the city of New York
by John Thompson. and a>verdict was
rendered for the plaintiff for ten thousand
dollars and cost. the heaviest verelict for
libel ever rendered, il is said. in that city

action was found, accused Mr.. Tompson

served the Safe Prison. aud the de.endan
pleaded the general issue. but failed TO
produce any thing whatever in lusiitica
ton of the attack on the plaintiff. which
the Cour, characterized as most unlusiiti-
able libel. The jury added to their YER

Destructive Fire.-The residence Of
George Mccullough was destroyed by
fire on Sunday morning last. The fire
was caused by ashes which had been
placed in box in the wood house. The
Joss is about $ $500, and no Insurance.
Aside from the loss 1T is a most Indictment
season of the year to be driven from a
comfortable home, and it is said there is
not vacant house to be found in the
town, and our friend will have to quarter
upon his friends until he can repair his
house. This great loss comes upon him
particularly heavy at this time, and it is to
be hoped that all persons indebted to him
will call and pay Immediately. Every
one should exert himself to do something
to assist him at this time, and then only
perform their duty.

The Indiana Journal says the 'Free
Soilers' held a State Convention in the
capitol on the 18th inst. The attendance
was not large. but composed of very re-
spectacle gentlemen from various por-
tons Of the State We did not attend
their deliberations, but learn that they
nominated James Ii. Cravens, Esq, OF
Ripley, for Governor, and John w.
Wright, Esq, Of Cass, for Lieut.. Cover
nor.
We learn also that a good deal Of diff:
ference Of opinion existed as to the pro-
priety ofattempting to keep up a separate
put in nomination as good free-soil men as
can be found in the State. resolution
confirming the nominations of Messrs.
Embree and Stanfield was offered by John
II. Bradley, Esq.
The propriety Of its passage was ell
forced by that gentleman in a speech Of
much eloquence and power--but it was
voted down. lie contended that the can
didates presented by the Wing party
were all that could be asked on the slave
ry question, and by the proper effort and
union they could be elected, whilst there
was no possibility Of electing the nomi-
nees Of a third party organization. The
effect Of such a course would most prob
ably enable James II. Lane to give the
casting vote against the passage Of proper
instructions to our Senators on the slavery
question, and would elect Mr.. Wright
whose whole past action proved him to be
opposed to any interference on the part o.
Congress in relation to slavery in our ter.
ritories.
| We have no doubt Mr. b. expressed
the views Of three fourths Of those who vo
ted for Mr.. Van Buren, last November
but interested and selfconstituted leaders
wish 10 build up party, and his advice
was unheeded.

in procuring some temporary place of in

Bishop Hughes. in recen. sermon
preached by him in New \ ork. SAYS that
the present Pope is the two hundred and
fifty ninth from ST. Peter; that it is not ne
cessary that he should DE a sovereign, but
il is necessary that he should be free. and
ifthere is no choice between sovereign and
vassal. then he must be sovereign The
popes have exercised temporal authority
one thousand and forty years, The Bishop
further says. tina, the dignity and office OF
Plus X do not depend upon his being
chief of the Papal States: and that the
faithful of the Catholic world will recognise
him, if he be a wanderer upon the Appen-
ines. The sermon is reported at length,
in the \. Y. Tribune Of the 9th inst.
