An Evening at the Seminary.

A large audience assembled at the Semi
mary last Monday evening, and were well
entertained with vocal and instrumental mu-
sic, and the reading of compositions from
The pens of the young ladies. The exercises
opened with an examination of the Music
class, which proved satisfactory to all con-
cerned, after which the young ladies per-
formed on the Piano and Guitar, with vocal
accompaniment: between the pieces, COM
positions were read. The evening was
pleasantly spent, while at the same time it
gave evidence that we have a school in our
place which every citizen should he proud
of. The compositions were, as general
thing, highly creditable their authors-and
if they persevere, will undoubtedly make
writers of usefulness and distinction.

From the National Intelligehcer,
Jackson and Intervention.


The following is an extract from the
speech of Col. Small, at the late Kossuth
meeting in Philadelphia:
"What do you think the immortal jack
son would have said upon the subject of
non-intervention at this time? [ Immense
cheering.] lean imagine, gentlemen. The
Old hero, watching with deep interest, the
struggle between Hungary and Austria, and
the approach of the Russian Bear to take
part against the gallant Magyar, would have
said at once to the latter: Halt there, Mr..
Bear, this is none of your business; we will
just draw a ring and show the parties fair
play; but, if you do mix in, look out for your
self; I'll be in, too, by the Eternal The
applause and cheering at this remark were
of the most enthusiastic character.
What Jackson would have said is a
matter of speculation, (says the Providence
Journal in which other men can calculate
as well as Mr.. Small. What he did say is
on record, aud we have already published
his emphatic disavowal Of the policy of in

days ago, twenty-one slaves belonging to the
the estate of VIM. Pendleton, consisting Of
old and young men, women and children,
and not regarded as above ordinary, were

price of 1868. One negro man, without

child ten months old, sold for 1850; and q
girl, aged eleven years, for 5000. On the

Presidential.

The political complexion Of Pennsylvania
as exhibited in her delegation chosen for
the Harrisburg Convention, is very fair for
Buchanan. Out of firty-six he has thirty
six.
In New York, the contest lies between
''the distinguished ex-Secreary, with not a
stain on his character, and but one patch on
his breeches," and the great Michgander.
In the dongs of the New Hampshire Con-
venIion, held on the 9Th, resolution pro-
posing Gen. F. Pierce for the Presidency,
was unanimously adopted. Every state,as
we have heretofore mentioned, seems to be
in prosperous way for having a candidate
of its own. The duties of the Baltimore
Convention will prove extremely arduous.

For the Times
A Leaf from the Relics Of Childhood.
ny MRS. @. 8. SAVAGE.
ADDRESSED TO MARY:
Who asked ,Ohy sighed ,rhen my eye met
hers. Written IN q Garden.

Oh! who would strive to drive away
The memories of the dead,
Which DER life's sad and dreary day,
Such holy influence shed.
love to gaze upon these flowers,
And breath their sweet perfume,
They call to mind departed hours
OF happiness, and gloom.
The visions of the past arise
And sadly haunt my breast
Isce tears gisten in dark eyes
A dying girl caressed.
Twas such balmy eve as this;
The summers perfumed breeze
Played sweetly round in signs of bliss,
And sported 'mong the trees.
And we were wandering hand in hand,
Thro' natures beauteous bowers,
So wild, scarce long enough we'd stand,
To mourn the trodden flowers.
We spoke of happiness we'd see
When years should pass away
More joyous than the merry glee
Of childhoods's frolic day.
She had a forehead high and fair,
A dark and pensive eye,
That laughed with mirth, or wept witt
care,
Or glowed when ''hopes beat high"
Her ringlets kept no 'customed place,
So dark and yet so bright,
But fell i'll clusters Ger her face,
Like flowers Ger vases white.
Her smile was such as have deemed
A sorrowed angels smile,
So full Of thrilling bliss it seemed,
Yet yelled in grief the while.
And o! her words, they still rebound
Like music thro' my heart,
Until their mem'ry-cherlshed sound,
Seems cen of life part.
That happy evening was the last
/ ever spent with her,
For e'er few more days had past,
She sought brighter sphere.
Thus all unlocked for, suddenly
Was childhood's golden bowl
Shattered upon mortality,
And from its beauteous goal
Her spirit scared from grief, and care,
And friends who loved too well,
To Eden's pure and balmy air
With angel ones to dwell.
Twas my grief-and when thine ey
Beams on me, so like hers,
Imay not still the rising sigh,
Or check the falling tears.

The Plank Road Meating.

A meeting of the Stockholders Of the
Plank Road Company will be held in this
place on Monday next, for the purpose of To-
eating the road. Several routes have been
and we are indebted to the Secre-
tary for the estimates Of the Engineer, which
will be found below. These estimates en-
brace all the essential points, viz: Distances,
Total Cost, and Average Cost, per miles and
self interest will point out the balance tothe
stockholders. The route that will bring the
greatest income TO the Company, having in
view the cost and distance, shouldbe decid
ed upon. The route that costs the least, may
not promise as great an income, as the one
that will cost more-and may it prove to the
interest of the Company to adopt the most
expensive route. So of distance. 1t is an
object to an individual traveller to travel the
shortest route, but the interests of the COM
pany may lead them to adopt the longer route.
These are the points now TO be determined
upon. But as this matter that belongs ex-
clusively to the Stockholders--the interested
persons-further remark might be constru-
ed into oficiousness, and we forbear.
The estimates below may be relied upon,
and are based upon the present prices of la
Dor and lumber, in this section. The esti-
mated price of lumber, we think, is at least
one-fourth higher than contract can be fill
ed at.

State Convention of Colored People

state convention OF C0lored People.
This body has now been in session five
days, and will probably adjourn this even
ing.
On Saturday, letter from James G. Bir-
ney, Liberty Party candidate for President
to the Convention, was read and received
with many demonstrations of APPLAUSE
Mr.. Birney, as well as his brother-in-law,
Gerrit Smith, has for years been most de-
cided and Incorporating opponent of every
scheme for the colonization of the free color
ed people of the United States, but within
the last year his sentiments have undergone
a change, and in the letter to the convention
he takes strong ground in favor of emigra-
ton. His letter will have great weight.
The subject of emigration has been the
principal one discussed during the session.
On Friday, the President John M. Lang
ston, Ga graduate Of College,) addressed the
Convention for nearly two hours, in support
of the policy of emigration. He pointed to
the significant fact that nearly every one of
the distinguished gentlemen who had writ
ten letters to the Convention had heartily
approved of the policy of general emigra-
tion-and the devotion of these men to the
best interests of the black race was unques-
toned. He contended there was a natural
repellency between the two races, growing
out Of consciousness, on the part of the
whites, that they were the oppressors, and
among the blacks that they were oppressed.
He warned his race that when they decided
to remain in this country they tamely and
meanly assented to the absorption and rx-
JUNCTION of their race. He would never
consent to this. Mr.. Langston's scathing
denunciation of all who would assent to the
policy of amalganation, will be remember
ed by all who heardit 1t was an able eff
fort.
A resolution recommending military Or
ganization, for the purpose of rendering eff
cient aid to the United States, in case of for
eign invasion, was, we believe, adopted.
Another resolution, constituting the men,
bers of the State Central Committee agents
er-oGcio of the underground raaluay, was
adopted. A system of cipher to be used by
these negro stealers in telegraphing to each
other, was discussed.
In the course ofthe discussion, Mr.. Clark
of this city, stated that in one year, recent.
ly, count was kept by the forwarding agent
at one point on the Ohio river and the tota
number Of fugitive slaves "put through" tc
Canada, was one hundred and thirty eight
Is there no force competent to break up thi,
extensive system of negro stealing. 1t is
nothing less.
