(son of the late Ex-Governor Hill) has re-
tired from his connection with that time
honored and fourishing establishment, the
New Hampshire Patriot and State Gazette.
We regret to learn that he is compelled to
do so by the declining state of his health.
Removal to more genial climeate we hope
will soon restore him. Mr. Butterfed,
who has been associated with Mr. Hill in
the management Of the paper for the last
six years, will continue its sole editor and
proprietor. He is, without exception, one of
the very ablest gentlemen of the press in
the country.

The Southern Convention.

Inc oouthern convention.
The proposed Commercial Convention
about to be held in Memphis, Tenn, bids
fair to be one of the most numerous and
influential bodies ever held in this country.
The Editor of the Memphis Wing, allud-
ing to this important movement, says:
''The deep interest which the citizens and
governors Of every Southern State have
evinced, satisfy us that all past assemblages
of like character, in the history of our
city, will be thrown in the shade; and that
we will be visited by a multitude, which in
point of responsibility and numbers, has
never convened for like purposes avn yhere.
We have been both astonished and pleased
to witness the feeling-almost amounting
to enthusiastically which every Southern
State has entered into this movement. In
some, the Governors have ordered an cleo
ton of delegates by the people, the State
defraying their expenses, and thus giving
to them purely representative character;
whilst in many counties, and civil districts,
meetings have been held, appointing large
numbers of delegates and alternates. The
entire South and West seems determined to
be fully represented"
That is the spirit for the South. "In
union there is strength" The Convention
takes place early next month
Should not Washington be represented?
NOT ANOTHER SLAUGHTER FOR THREE
lEARs.-At the coroner's inquest, Norwalk,
Tuesday, Mr.. L. B. Simonds, Superintend-
ent of the Motive Power, stated that, in his
opinion "a similar accident vould not occur
on the road for three gears % This is decid-
edly encouraging. The public have long
vacation ahead, before another terrible
slaughter will take place. Travellers should
make the most of their time, for three years
is not very long period.
Such an opinion, before jury, and in
sight of so terrible sacrifice is certainly
most remarkable Mr. Simonds, we are led
to infer expects continuation of carriages,
but to the best of his calculation the worst
ones will not take place under tArty-s sic
months Let every body remember the fact
No more accidents, where half hundred
men and women are to be sent into eternity
in moment, short Of three years. The
public will be gratifed at the information,
and think Mr.. Simonds every kind' for it's
communication.-Bosto Bee.
The above is about the coolest specimen
of official impudence that we have ever met
with. 1t is like knocking man down with
a sledge hammer, and then telling him that
next time you will usea mallet!
Merciful monopolies Most gracious COR
porations! What a benign protection all
this is to human life!
Yes "Such protection as cultures give
to lambs.'

PRACTICE VS.. PREACHING.-It is stated
that a Boston deacon, once hardware
dealer, and a man whose orthodoxy has been
long and loudly professed, and who for
more than thirty years has unsparingly
denounced novel reading as poisonous to the
minds and morals of the young, is a very
large recipient of the profits of the novel
entitled ''Uncle Toms CABIN and that he
has already amassed quite snug little for
tune from its avails.-Worcester Transcript
Give US the Deacon's name. He will
become notable.-Boston Bee.
He is probably near relative of the
medical porsom who, having made fortune
out of Uncle Tomisms, grinds down the
faces of his workmen to the last cent
Shouldn't wonder if the pious Deacon was
brought up at the very feet of Gamoliel.

IMPORTANT FROM SAN JUAN.-A letter.

lence of rumors that the State of Nicarapua
was about to take possession of Greytown

General Montenegro, commander-in-chief
OF the Nicaragua forces, had been sojourning
at San Juan for some time.
The Cyane, it was thought, would remain
IN port for some months.
The sloop-of-war Portsmouth was at San
Juan del Sur on the LIST; officers and crew
well. She would sail On a cruise about the
9Th.
The American charge d'affaires at Mica
ragua had made his arrangements to return
home in June.
