down by the wing party measure Of self-defence-

SOUTHERN CoNvENTIoN.-Never was a
scheme killed so dead as that famous pro-
ject which the committee introduced two
weeks ago, and which Messrs. Conway
and Claiborne tried to rush through the
House. We have not seen man from
the country-and we have made it our
business to inquire-neither have we
heard of one, who was in favor of that
scheme. On the contrary, it has been re-
ceived everywhere with most decided
marks of dlsapprobation. A meeting was
called in Lynchburg-not dozed could
be got together. Another in Fluvanna-
it shared the same fate Another in
Goochland, where, resolutions being Of
fered, they were postponed andeffmateIy'
The bare idea of a dissolution of the
Union is abhorent to the people of Virgil
mia. They have no thought of abandon
ing their rights under the Constitution
neither have they any thought of entrust-
ing their destinies to nineteen men in
Nashville. They have better remedies
for all their grievances in the Union than
they would have out of it, and they intend
to exhaust them. They leave the game
of disunion to Garrison & Co., and their
allies.-Rlc1tnaOaad Wing.

FURTHER FROM THE PLAINs-Mr. Mann,
who recently arrived at Fort Leaven-
worth from New Mexico, furnishes few
additional particulars, says the St. Louis
Union, of the murder of Mrs. White,
and the attack of the dragons OH the
camp of her murrerers. He informs the
Liberty (Mo) Tribune, that
Major Grier was slightly wounded dur
ing the pursuit Three Indians were
killed and several taken prisoners. Upon
the neck of an Indian Girl was found the
miniature likeness of ]. nj. White; also
wheels and other portions of gold watches,
supposed to have been taken from the in
dividuals recently murdered on the plains.
When Mr. Mann left Santa Fe, it was
fully credited that upwards of thirty Cali
fornia emigrants had been murdered at
Donna Anna. 1t was not known what
company they belonged 20, but it was
generally believed to have been Reed S.
Mr.. Mann passed Judge Browns train;
they were near Sand Creek, about 375
miles this side of Santa Fe. They had
lost all their cattle in the snow storms,
and were compelled to wait until they
could procure teams.

CARLYLE ON NEGRO SLAvERY-This
distinguished writer has come out with
an announcement of views Oh negro
slavery, which strikes with amazement
many of his transcendentalist admirers
The idea he inculcates seems to us to be,
that labor is the unavoidable lot of man
and debt due to humanity; consequently
that if man or people be in chains to
Incidence, it is the duty of the world to
emancipate them from this passion and
compel them to do the work they are fit
for. If the West Indies be peculiarly
calculated for the production Of spices
and tropical fruits, it is perfectly legitimate
to see that they are not given up to pump
kins and squashes, but that they be oc-
cupied by laborers, not by "tacO-legged
CATTLE" The article, the whole of which
was reproduced in Littell's Living Age,
abuses strenuously the policy which aban-
doned the British Antilles to an idle negro
population.

A Washington correspondent of the
N. Y. Herald says that the Wilmot pro-
viso is dead There are. he says, eight
Northern Senators ready 70 vote against it,
MIR. Webster will probably also be found
in the same category. In regard to MIR.
Benton the same correspondent says:
You may set it down as certain that
Mr.. Benton will vote "hat-footed against
the Wilmot proviso, should it come in
some shape or other in the Senate; and
he will, in addition to it, show its utter
absurdity and uselessness. He is but
watching his chance to knock it effectu-
ally in the head. Should its spectre re-
appear in the halls of Congress, each
Free-soiler will cry, 'Thou canst not say
l did it, and the great Missourian will
appear in the light of great matadoro,
who has held the red cloth before the
bull merely to get fair chance of giving
him the coup de grace. The beast will
die amidst the universal applause of the
public.

The SHORTEST CUT TO WEALTH.-The
Baltimore ArDlls saws.

THE SHORTEST CUT TO WEALTH-The
Baltimore Argus says:
A newspaper essay on the benefits of
advertising is generally supposed to be
dictated by self-interest, and is therefore
locked upon with suspicion; but undenia-
BILE facts carry conviction with them.
Six or seven years ago DR.. S. P. Town
send was probably not worth $1,000.
From the time that he commenced manu-
featuring his sarsaparilIa he has expended
more than 100000 in advertisements,
and he retires from the business worth
about one million of dollars. His profits
have been in direct ratio with his dis
bursements to the newspaper press; and,
last year, when his outlay in advertising
exceeded that of any previous season, we
understand that his net profits reached the
almost incredible sum of four hundred
thousand dollars.

Rev. Mr.. STocKToN-A Church acith-
out q Creed.-The Presbyterian of the
West, says:
We understand that this gentleman,
late pastor of the Reformed Methodist
Church in Cincinnati, has resigned his
charge, and proposes to establish new
no-creed church. With view to this,
he last Sabbath delivered his first lecture
in the Unitarian Church. We have not
learned what are to be the precise features
of this new church. During the last
winter MIR. Stockton preached several
discourses, in which he held that there is
a middle place, called Paradise. in which
the better class of heathen, and all who,
having some grace, die in a state of i'm
perfect sanctifcation, are placed; that.
under the ministry of saints and angels,
they may be fitted for heaven. We pre-
sumo his present enterprise has reference
to these views.

POVERTY IN NIRELAND.-A correspondent
of the Limerick Examiner says: "Eleven
thousand five hundred helpless creatures
on the outdoor relief list in this union
have been left eleven days without a
morsel of food beyond what they could
beg, borrow or steal;' and these eleven
thousand five hundred are widows, Or
phans, the aged, and the sick. Two
thousand in the workhcuse, one-third OF
whom are helpless and innocent children,
have been subsisting for the most part
upon turnips during the same period.

The Comfy OF STATEs.-The Legis-
lature of Virginia set the example direct
ing her Governor to send back to the
Governor of Vermont the an;i-slaverv
resolutions passed by the Legislature of
that State. Maryland has followed the
example, with only the variation of as
signing reasons for refusing to entertain a
communication from another State, which
condemned and reprobated institutions
that had ever formed an essential part of
her social system. Georgia has followed
the example not only without softening
its features. but has even given it a severer
character, by adopting general rule, by
which all similar messages will in future
be disposed of without reference of them
to the Legislature. This abolition has
already undermined the mutual respect
and habitual courtesy of the States. The
example of Virginia will and should be
followed by the whole South.

We feel it our duty to again urge upon
our citizens the necessity of immediate
action in memorializing Congress in re-
lation to the removal of the Raft of Red
River The standing committee ap-
pointed by the Raft Convention, failed to
meet on Saturday last as suggested in
our paper of the 18th. The cause we
choose rather to attribute to the inclem-
ency of the weather and the almost i'm
passable state of the roads, than to any
apathy on their part. We trust no wever
this failure will only be an incentive to
further and more energetic action The
subject is one of vast importance to the
people of South Arkansas, and should not
be neglected. The time to act is the
present; let us improve it while we may,
and certainly an object so desirable and
so vitalIy important to this section of the
State, should have tendency to arouse
the dormant energies of this portion OF

A MOTHER AND DAUGHTER CONSUMED
BY FIRE.-The Grand River (Michigan)
Eagle says that fire recently broke out
in building in that village, used as a
Catholic church, and occupied as resi-
dence by the Rev. Mr.. Vizoisky, and the
Rev. Mr.. Kilroy. The fire originated in
the basement story, and spread with such
rapidity as to consume the whole of its
contents. Mr. Vizoisky and a boy that
slept in the building, made their escape
by jumping out of the window of the
second story. Mrs. Kilroy, the mother
of the Rev. Kilroy, aged about eighty
years, and a sister. aged about twenty
three years, were buried in the ruins. 1t
is supposed that the young lady might
have escaped, had she left her mother to
her fate: but in the desperate effort to
save her she lost her own life. This is
inferred from the fact that both bodies
were found together in an opposite corner
from the room III which they slept
Their remains, consisting of disjointed
fragments, were gathered up as soon as it
was possible to rescue them from the
ruins.

The Washington Division, No. 10.
Sons of Temperance celebrated the ami
versary of the birth of Washington in a
highly becoming manner. The process

livered by the Rev. c. P. Turrentine and
A. B. Williams. Esq, which we had not
the pleasure of hearing, but we are in
formed they were replete with interest,
and contained rauers of truths, oceans OF

vantages to be derived from strict ad-
herence to the principles and tenements
of the Order.
