The woIfboro Conven,,on.


Nihe Free Democratic Convention, at Wolfboro
N H., was eminenlly successful, and the proceed.
ings were OF the most satisfactory character. The
Boston Post, few days ago, predicted its failure
and the Boston Journal of the 18th attempted to
deprecae it by lalsehood and SANDER; but in spite
of The representations Of the Post and the bunker
ISLANDERS OF The Journal, the Convention was attend
cd by thousands of true hearted men and wo men;
and The spirit evoked by its proceedings was such as
will exert healthy influence upon New Hampshire
politics. The meeting took place in Grove BY
Lake Wlnnepisseogee, and was presided over by
Hon. Amos Tuck
Eloquent and earnest speeches were made by The
President, by Moses A. Garland, Hon. John F.
Hale, and others. On the evening preceding the
Convention, large and enthusiastic meeting was
held in hall in Wolfboro; and another evening
meeting took place after the proceedings of the Con.
vention over. large number Of ladies' were
present who lent their hearty sympahies to the OBJ
jects which had drawn together this great gathering
of freeman.
Every demonstration which is made by the friends
Of free soil, free Speech and free men, throughout
the country, shows that the sympalhes Of the true
hearled are with US, and that the Free Democratic
party has cause to congratulate itself upon The steady
extension Of its principles and its power.

% The editor Of the Mobile Advertiser has
traveled-he has been in Bombay, knows that
Sir Jamsetlee Jeleebhoy is not Hindoo and was
personally acquainted with some of the first fire
worshippers, wi o are learned and Courteous men,
I'd and hospitable, for the editor dined with some
OF the richest Of them, and cannot forget 'stheir
mansions glittering with magnificent candelabra."
The Parsee ladies are not allowed to come to the
table, but still are not treated very vigorously, as
little incident of which the editor became cog.
INFANT will illustrate. 1t is an incident full of ro-
nance
"a friend ofcurs Ga very handsome fellow by
theway, )had been dining at the suburban villa Of
aweallhy hre-worshipper. The next morning he
received note, written in good English, IN del
leate female hand, inviting him to a personal in-
terview in the afternoon, al the same house where
he had dined the day before, with the further re-
quest that he would say nothing about the invi-
tatlon. Ofcourse he accepted it, and at The APP
pointed time made his appearance, and in
ttoduced into the presence Of three or four Parsee
ladies'. The writer of the notea beautiful young
widow, (evdently person of some distinction,)
with some embarrassment, but much grace, apol"
ogzed for the liberty she had taken, and explain
edit by saying that she was an inmate of the
house OF his host of the day previous, and seeing
hlm at the entertainment, and having great de-
sire to converse with an American had taken this
method of satisfying her curiosity. An interest
ing conversation of an hour ensued, in the course
of which The lady spoke unreservedly Of her own
history, and the customs OF her own people, and
asked her guest variety OF questions concerning
himself and his country. AT the close of the in
lerview, she presented him with handsome dia-
mond ring, and added, with that fattering conf
dence which isso irrisstable when coming from
pretty woman, that she relied upon his honor
that he would say nothing to his companions, or
any other person. about the visit or the Gift until
his return home-that it was an unusual freedom
which she had INDUCED in, and would bring re-
proach upon herself and the other ladies Of her
household, sifit were talked of. Our friend kept
his word, he wore the ring, but no persuasion or
banterlng could induce him to divulge the myse-
ny connected with it; and we heard it from him
the first time, many months afterwards, when we
had both returned to America, and the diamond
was sparkling on the finger of bis bride. Mean
time, he hadhad enough of Yankee curiosity TO
take the gift to jewelIcr and ascertain that it
was genuine brilliant the value of hundred
and fifty dollars.'

a. The Memphis appeal, Mississippi pa
per, says that movement has been begun in that
State, to prevent the separation by sale of slave
families. This movement it Is said meets with
favor in the south, and will be formally proposed
in short time, in the Baltimore Cotton Planter,
as Southern question. The reasons assigned
for this movement are that it will "dbate the
clamors Of the fbolitioaists, and exempt the
poorer whites from the loss Of their slaves in
sequence of debt"
Now, we take 1t for granted that the Memphis
Appeal is correct in its statements relative to the
motives for this movement. We believe that
shame and benevolence are at the bottom of it.
Southern Shareholders are susceptible of shame
and kindness; and if they were the only persons
Abotonists had to deal with Slavery would have
a very short lease Of life; but they have auxires
who are far more obdurate and Jealous in defense
of the peculiar institution than they are, we mean
Northern dnughfaces.
No argument, denunciation or piiiiul appeal
can touch the heart of a doughlace with compunc-
tion He is too mean to be visited by shame,an
too selfish to be influenced by humanity. The
doughface is Unionst, Union Safety Commit
tee man, National Wing or Democrat, or a
pro-slavery expounder OF the Constitution, only
because he wants TO fasen like eech on the
taxes Of the country; and the shortest and surest
way to do so, is by crawling like spaniel before
SHAREHOLDERS, and doing ''wth eacrity'' all the
dirty work OF the South. What Southern gem
tleman would not coadescend TO do, Northern
doughface would glory in the privilege of doing
The Southerner is STAKEHOLDER because his IA
Their was one; and because all the respectable
people, amongst whom he was brought up, hold
slaves; but the doughfdce supports and sustans
slavery upon the same principle that vulture,
perched upon the rotten carcase Of horse, tries
TO sustain his position by turning upon any one
who attempts to drive him away. The oath.
some wretch wants to feed upon corruption be-
cause his appetites impel him 10 do so; and,
therefore, while the Southerner is either a Selby,
or an Alfred or Augustine ST Clair, the Northern
pro-slavery man is either reverend Orvle Dew
ey, or a Simon Legree.
This movement in the South is the effect of
that agitation which Congress resolved to suppress
which the National Wing and Democratic Con-
gressional Caucusses at Washington resolved to
put down. and which the Baltimore Conventions
voted to discopntenance.
How vain was the Boosting of those political
Pharoahs; how vain their attempts 10 encircle

tation has laughed at their impudent mpotency,
and has bravely penetrated even to that citadel o.
slavery, Mississippi, in which Gov. Foot declared

ACCIDENTS ON MASSACHUSETTS RAIL
RoADs.-fhe Advertiser states it to be fact
verified by official returns made on oath, that

railroads of Massachusetts during the twelve

PASSENGERS transported on those roads, amounting
in all to I0,463, 423, one passenger only aoas
killed, (and he passenger who fell from car
IN an excursion train, while standing, when there
was room to sit,) and during that period no pas
senger was injured. There were, however, a

cross the track in front of train in full motion ;at
tempting to get upon car when in moton;or w.
ing on the track IN state of intoxcation. A con.
siderable number of conductors, brakemen, and

lives in preserving the lives of passengers. were
also unfortunately killed; in consequence of the
hazardous nature Of the employment.

FRIDAY, August 26.
Ellen Powers was brought up for being drunk,
and was sentenced to two months in the House of
Correction. The defendant, who was personally
good looking, presented melancholy picture of
the effects of inebriety. The trembling hand,
the haggard face, and the dull eye, showed that
alcohol had made sad work with the reasonable
soul Of this victim. 1t was feared that she would
be seized with delirium tremens in the court
room, and she was consequently carried oyeras
soon as possible.
