OF all the Periodical Journals devoted to Ltera-
ture and Science which abound in Europe and in
this country, this has appeared to me to be the
most useful. 1t contains, indeed, the exposition
only of the current literature of the English lam
guage, but this, by it's immense extent and COM
prehension, includes a portraiture of the human
mind in the utmost expansion Of the present age.

James Summons, convicted in Cincinnati of
the murder of Electa Reeves, has been senton-
ced to be hung on the Sd ofFebruary next
The time was fixed so distant to give full op-
portunity to bring the case before the highest
Court ofthe State. We copy single para

Thurman, Of the Supreme Court. 1t conveys
warning all should heed. especially the young
and any who Gin an evil hour" have given a.
way to dissipation. That was the point whence
young Summons started for the gallows and
became double murderer. Read, ponder,
and be warned. In addressing tho prisoner
the Judge said: 9rp i1s12 9h7oloteu '''''1,'
'You have thrown away many and great ad.
vantages. You were once, perhaps, kind
and dutiful son. a fond and affeciionate broth

ton From that moment your career was
downward. You becnme idle, careless and
abandoned. You sunk from hour to hour in
deprsvity, until at length your hand was rails

whom YOU owe your own. A little child you
should have loved and poor woman who had
never offended you, pcrished by your means.

Suspension Of the Enlargement

The whole Lake region is interested in tho
enlargement of the Erie Canal, and the suspen-
sion of the work is serious calamity to doz-
en- States besides New York. Every producer
in the West, rs well as every business man is
directly or indirectly interested in New York
canals. They arc the great channels of trade
between the East and the west and the cn-
largemcnt oftheir capacity to tho immense
business which is yearly and rapidly augmen-
ting, is the policy of wisdom but not Locofoco-
ism. The Albany Evening Journal thus point
edly speaks of the suspension of tho Public
Works:
A new chapter is opened in the history of
the Erie CANAL. The enemies of tho cnlarge-
ment have gained signal victory. In lS42
thoy suspended the work by party Logisla-
ture. In 1852 they have effected the same
thing through the action of partisan Judicia-
ry. The Court of Appeals has decided by n
regular party vote, that the Canal Law is un-
constitutional After tho law had been partly
executed by raising 81 100000 under iis pro-
visions, and by putting the whole work under
contract: after the whole people, with the ex-
ception of a ft fictionists. had acqniescod in
the measure, and both parties had promised
to carry it out in good faith the State is brought
to dead stand, its progress arrested, and
thousands of its citizens thrown into intermn-
dOlc ullicuitles ny tbe SOunt oi hcsOftI
blow has thus been given to the public pros
perity which will be fclt for years. Mischief
enough has been brought upon the people to
satisfy even the wantonness of n faction.
1t is understood that only five of tho eight
Judges of the Court Of Appeals united in opin-
ion that the Canal Law was unconstitutional
viz:--Me-srs. Ruggles, Edmonds, Jewett, Gard
ner and Johnson. Judge Gridley was not pre-
sent and Judge Watson did not hear tho ar
guments. Neither. therefore, submitted any
opinion, while Judge Welles gave an opinion
in favor of tho cons,itutionalitp Of the law.
Although it may soem ungrocious to refer
to the political affnitics Of tho Judge of the
highest Court in the State, the public have a
right to know something about them whom the
question decided is of a political character
II is understood tha, Messrs. Gridley, and
Watson (who gave no opinion,) arc Hunkers

situtionaty Of the Law is Wing; and

The PrIn,ersi Convention.

The Printers National Convention e6rfi:
pletcd their business and adjourned at six o.
clock last evening, after q session of four days
The session throughout has been characterized
by the greatest harmony of feeling and senti-
ment, and its deliberations have been !conduc-
ted with degree of dignity and decorum
which we should be glad to see initiated by
other Legislative bodies, that we might name.
The President, Mr.. M. c. BRowN, of Philadel-
phia, has proved himself well qualified for tho
post, and though he now retires from his offico,
he will ever be held in high estimation by the
delegates generally, that We have never seen
assembled finer looking or more intelligent
body of men, and this was remarked by ma
ny Of our citizens, who looked in. upon their
sessions. 1t is with pleasure and pride that
we viewed this first National Assembly of
Workingmen that ever convened in Cincinnati
ii. The men there assembled were the Nobil-
ity of the Land--selected from among the
most honorable Of an honored profession-and
they have performed their duties as became
Workingmen legislating for Workingmen.
The final organization of tho National I'm
ion was completed at this session, and the
Charters for the Subordinate Unions were yes
terday issued in due form. In casting lots
for precedence, the Indianapolis Union was
honOred by receiving the first Charter ever
granted to Typographical Union in America.
The last hour of the session was passed in ex-
changing pleasant congratulations, and senti-
ments of good will and brotherhood, such as
are exchanged when printer meets printer
Nearly every member participated in this in

Mr.. WILDER. of Boston, taking tho lead, in a
speech peculiarly happy and appropriate.
These National assemblages of Laboring
men, 80 recently unknown in this country, or
the world, form a marked feature in the prog
ress Of the Age, and can but be looked upon
with qualification and delight by every friend
of human Progress and Reform. While our
sympathies are naturally strongest in behalf
of the Typographical profession, we look for
ward earnestly to tho time when the Labor
ers of every trade in every part of this great
nation, shall succeed in establishing q Union
