At hand.
Mr.. II. then proceeded to state some of tho
modes By which the Society would be able to
compensate itself for the benefits it would be-
stow without taxing the cmigrant therefor
We can do no sort of justice to the eloqueuce
of his remarks in the hasty sketch we have
given. TWAS felt by all that his speech was
just the thing needed, and he was most heart
lily applauded. lEklBa
Other gentlemen spoke in favor of the re-
solves, and they were unanimously adopt
ed.
Letters were then read from several distin-
guished gentlemen, approving of the objects
of the convention. Among them were letters
fIom Horace Greedy, Charles Sumner, Edward
Wade. and ]. R. Giddings, the publication of
which we must defer until tomorrow.
A committee of five was afterwards appoint
ed to receive the names of persons DESTROYS of
emigrating to the West, and with authority to
confer with the Emigrant's Aid Society, as to
their plan of operations, and to call another
convention if thought desirable; and at four
o'clock the convention adjourned.

the LIST of August. Have been years on the
road. Was brakeman during 3 years,
This closed the case for the plaintiff.
Henry Chaplin, Esq, opened the case for the
defence. He stated that the Railroad Compa-
ny expected to prove that John Brown had
only been been slightly injured by the acct
dent at Valley Valley Falls. They would also
show that the accident was not the result of
carelessness on the part of the corporation.
Hy. w. Carson, of Worcester, went to school
with John Brown, at Worthwhile, during the
last winter. Saw him play at knocking off
caps. Saw him once slide down Tafts Hill
on his sled. Saw him have scuiflle with
Samuel Chaplin, and once put him out OF the
recitation room myself. Heard him tell the
boys to be careful not to hurt his side Could
not say how long he played at any time
Never told anything now testify to, to any
one save to Mr.. Whiting yesterday.
Or. Sytoanas Ctapp, of Pawtucket, testified
that he examined John twice, at Pawtucket,
and that he was very comfortable at those
times. Do not consider his injuries severe
Am of opinion that moderate employment is
better for any age than violent excrhon.-
Think John would have been better employed
tending some store, than in playing ball or
scufling.
Here the Court adjourned to this morning.

HOUSE, AsHEs.-rhe value of Ashes as a
stimnlant of vegetable life, is row too well un-
dcrstood to need illustration. On corn, wheat,
garden vegetables, and root crops in general,
the highly beneficial effects of wood ashes
9 have probably been witnessed by every one.
In compost, they are of great value; and as a
b top dressing for grass land--especially where
the land is cold AID inclines to the production
of moss, or has become bound out ashes
are of the greatest service. In the cultivation
Of fruit trees, no application is of greater eff
9 cheney, or productive of more immediate or
obvious results. M
The effect of leached ashes upon the crop
may be as good, perhaps, for one or two years
Z as that of the unleachcd. but it cannot be as
permanent, as most of the potash is washed
oat by the process of teaching. :" Wood ash
es may be used to advantage to almost every
class Of crops, but especially as dressing for
grass, grain, millet, and Indian corn but
they are the most perceptible upon legumin-
GUS plants such as clover, peas, beans, &C.,
As top-dressing to grass lands, they root ont
the moss, and promote the growth Of white
clover. Upon red clover, their effects will be
more certain if previously mixed with one
fourth of their weight of plaster"
But there is a remarkable difference in the
d quantity Of potash produced by equal weights
OF different trees and plants. In Sir Hum
phrey Dayy's Lectures on Agricultural Chem
istry, we find table showing this difference
In several kinds of trees and plants, which we
give below as matter of interest to the Gu
nous. Potash was once called q salts of

the name was not inappropriate when he mo-

%A terrible catastrophe occurred on Saturday afternoon in New York, in the falling of large unfinished gas house at lhe foot of Fourteenth street, East river. Three persons were almos, instantly killed and more than dozen badly wounded From what we have been able to gather 1t would seem that the building, which was nearly 200 feet square. and very heavy. was built upon made ground. and that the sinking of some of the pillars brought down the central roof and that dragged two side roofs with it. We are told that the wallswhch were overhiown showed quality of mortar of the d' y sand style, with no adhesiyeness whatever.
