Caledonia County Convention.

We have received, from the Secretary, an Off
cial account of the proceedings of the Conven-
ton at Danville on the Both ult., to take into
consideration the recent act of the Legislature
removing the County shire from DanSille to st.
Johnsbury but have not room this week for
the full proceedings. About thousand voters
were present, and the meeting was harmonious
The following were the resolutions
Resolved, That we consider the act of the
last Notwithstanding the shire of Caledo-
MIA county, and the subsequent action thereon
an outrage upon the views and wishes of a
large majority of the legal voters of this country.
We therefore unanimously request the Judges
Of said County to suspend any further action in
said act, till the whole subject matter be fairly
heard and acted upon by the Legislature at their
session in October next
Res0tred, AS the unanimous sense of this
Convention, that the law above referred to re-
moving said County Shire should be repealed,
and we hereby pledge ourselves to use all hon
orable means to effect such repeal at the next
session Of our Legislature
Resolred, That the Committee to fix location
for the County Buildings have not performed
the duties of their appointment according to
the legal tenor and meaning of the Act, and
therefore all proceedings of the Judges of the
Caledonia County Court for the purchase of
Building Sites and the erection of buildings
thereon, are null and void.
ResolCed, That the petitions of $500 legal
voters in the County OF Caledonia requesting
the Judges of said County to suspend all action
under the act of last fall, removing the Shire
from the Town of Danyille, is entitled to weight
and consideration, and we therefore recommend
the appointment of Committee to present to
the Hon. Court the remonstrances already had
in relation to the said removal, and also the
proceedings of this Convention.
Resolred That the Freemen of the County
ought to have voice in the location Of their
County Buildings, and it is the sense of their
Convention that the question should be submit
ted them by direct vote.
The first and second resolutions were passed
unanimously.
Resolvod, That we pledge ourselves to vote
for no representative, senator, Judges of County
or Destrict Court, or High Sheriff at the next
September election, who is not pledged before
the said election, to 20 for the repeal of the law
remiving the shire of Caledonia County to St.
Johnsbury.
A County Committee of FIVE was appointed
to take charge of the whole question, consisting
of Hon. H. B. Chase, Hon. A. E. Judevine, II.
Stevens, S. j. Y. Vail, and Simon Blanchard,

The PTTTSBURGH CoNyENTIoN.-The New York
State Central Committee have resolved, says the
Eeen'ng Post, to send delegates to the Conven-
ton which is to assemble at Pittsburg, on the
I'D of February, and two gentlemen from each
congressional district, and four from the State
at large, have been designated as delegates
There is abont an equal number taken from
each of the old parties, and among them will be
found several of the most Influential and es-
, tocmed members of both.
The delegates were not instructed by the
committee as to their duties at Pittsburg, from
which we may infer that they were deemed best
qualified when they come to confer with the
delegates from other States, to act upon the
question which is likely to occupy the largest
share of their deliberations; we refer to the ma
chinery by which they are to obtain the prefer
ences of the Republican party for Presidential
candidate in 1856, and whether there is any
practicable substitute for national convention.

GROUND AND UNGRoUND-CoocKED AND
UNoooKED FooD.-In communication from
the Society cf Shakers, at Lisbon, New Y ork
in the Patent Office Report, we find the fol
lowing upon the relative value of ground and
unground, and fattening cattle, &c.
4" The experience of more than 30 years
leads us to estimate gronnd corn at one-thrd
higher than unground as food for cattle, and
especially for fatteniug pork; hence it has
been the practice of our society for more than
quarter Of a century to grind all our prov
ender.
d" The same experience induces us to put a
higher value upon cooked than upon raw
meal and for fattening animals, swine par
ticularly, we consider 3 of cooked equal to
4 bushel of raw meal.
Until within the last three or four years
our society fattened annually for 80 years
from 10000 to 10000 pound of pork, cxclu.
sive OF lard aud offal fat and it is the con-
slant practice to cook the meal, for which
purpose . or I potash kettles are used"
The Shakers are a close-observng, calcuI-
ating people, and go in for the practical rcali-
ties of life and therefore, III economy Of food

Wells, it is said, is laboring secretly for Buch.

Even Wells is not so corrupt, but that standing
at the North, and watching the course of the
President, he must regard him with unutterable
loathing We might expect even less craven
and skulking spirit than his, to cringe before
taking the ponderous burden of national ad
ministration, which, like this. has tramped
upon former democratic doctrines, until 1t is
secretly detested even by those who dare not

KANSAS election for State officers in
Kansas took place on the 18th inst. SO far as
heard from it passed off quietly The vote is
reported to have been full except in Lea en-
worth, Kickapoo and Atchinson and some small
err places on the river, where it was thought the
polls would not be opened, for fear that THEN
contignty to Missouri might bring on blood
shed. The pro-savery party at Lawrence voted
generally for their own men. They did il
through fear that the State organization might
amount to something, and if it did, they said
they wished to be represented. But the regular
Free State ticket was elected.

have no reason to say but that they are all true.
The Free State Ticket has been elected by q
large majority, although the mauraders were on

sword. Gre man named Brown, from Ken
lucky, a r tie man, who had signalized
himself By Earring, was taken and literally
chopped pieces and as the last spark of life
was OK carried to his wife and children.
In contrasting upon the above affair, the
! Herald says
" 1t seems to be the determination Of the ruff
fans to STAY one after another of our prominent
citizens, hoping by so doing to intimidato US
from exercising our rights as freemen. How
long will Congress leave us thus exposed to bar
barous inroads, without either vesting us with
the power to defend ourselves, or send us relief!
Have they determined to wait until civil war
bursts upon the country in all its fury, and fire
