fz-There is scarcely y day passes that
we have not calls at the Office for "tho
Mornings Paper" by persons residing
in the town who do not take it regular
ly. Again we have to say the paper
cannot b. had ut the Office Of publica-
ton. II is issued regularly every
morning and will be promptly deliv-
cred In any part Of the town before
breakfast, for the exceedingly low price
of FIVE DOLLARS per annum.--
Any man who cannot afford to pay
that amount for an abstract chronicle"

nrOur friend of the Gazette at
Plaqamine notices the call for Prin.
tcrs convention on the 4sh of July
next and says lit lies in the power
of high.minded editors to remedy ex.
listing evils-but not in editors who
debase the printing business SO low as
to do work for nothing
Tho Convention might adopt rules
md regulations to guide the craft, but
this latter species Of editors would Vi
olate them (where there is opposition)
on account Of niggnrdly avarice.'
In answer to this, we might, say
that the very argument he uses is the
strongest argument in favor of unity.
The acrimonious and bitter feeling,
that exists amongs. our brethren grows
out Of political opposition which in
many instances degenerates into per-
sonal abuse. This SO dsunites us az
to render the craft prey to every
species of abuse, not the least Of which
j. the sale Of our labor under the
auctiohcer's hammer. Let all our
battles be with words, but when the
means whereby we live are assailed
Let us united in solid phalanx aud set
down in peace and good fellowship to
devise means of defence. We hope to
be able to make all our jarripg friends
shake hands with this most potent Of
all potent arguments. 1t is omy IN

by MIR. Whigham to save the gold in his

troughs with rifles and quicksilver,

washes itself with every evolution, then

AFTLIcTING CAsuALTY.-A gentleman n
named Mason, of Sucker Flat, about IL
miles below this city on Deer Creek, has
sent us an account of sad accident that
occurred in that place on the 2lst inst,
at the dwelling of Mr.. John Morris. A
quicksilver flask had been filed with
powder by some previous inhabitants oI
the house, for safe keeping and put out
of doors, and probably forgotten. This
flask was taken for an andiron, and a
fire built upon the hearth. When heat.
ed it exploded, throwing off the entire
roof, bursting out the windows and scat
tering the furniture and the fire in all
directions. AT the time Mrs. Morris
and two little girls, of the ages Of 9 and
10, and an infant child, were in the
room Mr.. Morris was out Of town
Other members Of the family had retired
but few moments before. Mrs Nor
ris and young child escaped unscathed,
One interesting little girl was SO severe,
ly injured by falling missile striking
her ON the head, that she died next NOR.
ming The other child vas somew hat
burnt, but her clothing was timely strip
ped from her, and she will probably re-
cover.
