CHARLESTON, May 5.-South Carolina State
Convention. Southern Rights Convention
met to-day pursuant to notice, at Military Hall,
and organized by the appointment of ex-Gover-
nor j. p. Richardson, with the following Vice
Presidents Ex-Governor w. c. Seabrook, j. s.
Ashe, n L. Griffin, j. w. Simpson, r. H. Good
wyn, B. K Hannegan, and w. II. Gist. The
editors of the Greenville Mountaincer, Camden
Journal, Black River Journal, Edgefeld Aduer-
tiser, Chester Standard, and ]. c. Walker, were
appointed Secretaries Forty Associations were
represented, and four hundred and forty
delegates were in attendance. The President,
on taking his seat, delivered an address, in
which he calmly and temporarily reviewed the
state Of affairs which had brought the Conven-
ton together. He said that under existing cir
cumstances Southern institutions could not last
twenty years. He alluded in forcible terms to
the disregard paid to the expenditure of blood
and treasure by the South in the Mexican war,
by the exclusion of Southern institutions from
the territories acquired by that contest; and re-
marked, when dangers thus reach our very
doors, it is time to arm. 1t is futile, continued
he, to expect that Constitution based upon
such legislation as has lately characterized Con-
gressional action can survive. Concession could
yield nothing to its support.
He hoped that the deliberations would be
Cohuucu cnlICiy W tuc COuslucTdtlOu VI Iue
question when, where, and how resistance
should be made, but confessed that it should
not rashly be resorted to. He would not dis
cuss that, however, as he did not wish to bias
the minds of the Convention. He loved the
Union. There could not be in the whole assem-
blage an amateur disunionist. He counselled
union among ourselves. If any foes are form
ing in our rear, let us await their approach.
If they approach US in front, let US march
boldly forward to meet them. 1t has been said,
Let not man put asunder those whom God and
nature have joined together; but the reverse
may be applied to those whom God and nature
have divided: let not man join them together.
The eloquent speaker then went on at consider
able length to show the want of natural bonds
Of affinity between the different sections of the
Union, and concluded by advising temperate
elaboration.
The Convention then adjourned.
The votes tomorrow will decide the fate of
notification. The president has heretofore
been considered q strong Union man.

TooTH-PULLYG ILLUSTRATED. Before the
days of chloroform there was quack who adver-
tised tooth-drawing without pain. The patient
was placed in a chair, and the instrument ap-
piled to his tooth with wrench, followed by a
roar from the unpleasantly surprised sufferer
stop" cried the dentist compose yourself
told you would give you no pain, but only
just gave you that twinge as q specimen to show
you Cartwrights method Of operating" Again
the instrument was applied-another tug, an
other roar. CHOW don't be impatient; that is
Dumerge's way; be seated and calm--you will
now be sensible of the superiority of my method"
Another application, another tug, another roar.
"Now, pray be quiet that is Parkinsons mode,
and you don't like it, and no wonder" By this
time the tooth hung by thread; and whipping it
out, the operator exultingly exclaimed: "That
is my mode of tooth-drawing without pain, and
you are now enabled to compare it with the
operations Of Cartwright, Dumerge, and Parkin-
son.

FoR THE TRAVELLING PuBLIo.--A reduction
Of fare has recently taken place on the route
from New York to Buffalo via Albany. Roches-
ter, &C., which makes ii as cheap for western
travellers to go by New York as over the noun
tains. From this city to New York the fare is
W 90, for irst-class passengers; from New
York to Buffalo, 81 30. From Philadelphia the
traveller can take the Camden and Amboy road,
and have an opportunity Of witnessing some Of
the most magnificent scenery in the Union, be-
sides the pleasure of railroad and steamboat
ride, both of which will thrice compensate him
for the amount of his fare. For accommoda-
tons, pleasure and comfort the Camden and
Amboy route is one Of the best and most desi-
rable.

The FRosTs AND THEIR FRUITS. Yesterday
morning Jack Frost spread his mantle over
mother Earth, and in his cold embrace slightly
touched some of the fruit about this part of the
country. And again this morning he descended
to the earth. In the country the frost was
quite thick Much apprehension is felt that
the larger portion of our fnely-promising fruit
crop will be lost. Peaches, pears and apples
are just in that state of young vigor when they
are most easily killed

MAY BALL.-The ball last evening at the
Temperance Hall went off with much eclat. The
arrangements were well made, and the utmost
order and harmony prevailed. The ladies were
happy and beautiful, as they always are, and
their joyous spirits kept the young men in de-
lightful humor, and caused all to regret the ap-
preaching of another day, which compelled them
to separate. May all see and enjoy many a
return of the same happy season.
