DEAR, DUxB AND BLISD.-Abby a., daugh-
ter of g. G. Dioway, Fall River, Mass, Is one
Of the wonders of the age, another Laura Brig
man. She is deaf, dumb and blind; her right
limbs arc paralyzcd, she is confined to her bed;
cannot be moved much without being thrown
into a fit-yet she will converse fluently with
the mute alphabet, writes very Iegibly with her
left hand, and reads common writing on paper
or slate or print Of the book be not too much
worn,) by passing her fingers over the words.
She will also distinguish the different colors Of
variegatcd dress in tho same way. She has
wrought several pieces of crcwel work that
would be a credit to any girl of her age, select.
using only her left hand. She plays draughts
and backgammon cxPertly. She knows when
any ono comes into the room by the jar of the
bed, ION which she constantly lies,) and in this
way distinguishes the different members of the
family.

There Is little doing here further than has
been temporarily effected, and will be compile
I'D Tomorrow. Three committees have been
appointed, oneon credentials, one on organiza-
ton. aad the third on platform. One member
VAS appointed from each State on each commit
tes. They VIII probably report In the morning.
The New York question viii probably consume
much time. The Hsrds and Softs have both
y,-esonted a full delegation, and the Convention
!. must decide between them. The impression Is
that the Harlls will be let in, but many think
botbde,egations will be rejected. Missouri also,
!. has two sets the Bentons and the anti-Bentons
The anti-Bsntons have been admitted by the
Democratic National Committee, and viii hold
their seats until the Convention decides between
taem. The contestants are as bitter as the
Herds and Sofs Old Tom is here and report
n siroag Buchanan man His aid viii not
materially aid Buchanan. The Bcntonians rush
Cd into the Convention to-day and forced their
way to seats. Col. Medary refused to rscog-
niSe them, and after much confusion they with
drew. Such conduct is universally condemned,
and Col. Richardson of Illinois, administered to
Them very severe castigaion, which was rap
turousIy received They have injured their
chances very much by this conduct, although
they had but little at first jenkins and Jack
son have been admitted by the Va delegation in
place of Lewis aud Carr, appointed by the Wes-
ton Convention.
I Buchanan stock is high. He will geta major
ity Of the yotes-but can he get two-thirds?-
This is the question. l do not think that ne
can, and if he does not, neither Pierce nor
Douglass will Then the indications are that
the South will have to present candidate, and
ffso, Mr.. Hunter of Virginia will most likely
be the candidate. He is Objectionable to none,
and respected by all. His friends viii not offer
his name If it be possible to nominate North
ern sound man. They will wait patiently, and
If Northern man can be agreed upon, Mr..
Hunter will not be named. The chances arc
various aud give these only as speculations.-
1.-The platform is the great test and all look anx-
iously to it. To have union anti.fanatical
platform is thought more important at present
than the nominee even, as it is desirable to
know who arc Union men in fact The South
= ern vote will mainly be cast for Mr.. Pierce on
the first ballot, and then probably for Mr.. Doug
lass. Mr. Buchanan will receive tho vote of
Virginia, IL she casts her vote as unit which
viii most likely be done. Immense efforts are
making by tho friends of buchanan, to put him
in nomination. The outside pressure is intense
but not as effective as at first Nous rerT0ns.

The SUBMARINE TELEGRArH RErwEES AMERI-
CA AND EuRoPE.-Thc bill for the formation ola
Transatlantic Telegraph Company, which was
some time ago introduced into the Canadian
Parliament, has passed its second reading in the
lower house, aud the committee to whom it was
referred have recommended its fnal passage
The telegraphic line forwhich provision is thus
made will begin at Quebec, and following the
course of the st. Lawrence, reach to the eastern
extremity of Labrador. A submarine cable
will then convey the wire to the soutlcrmost
coast Of Greenland, thence up the eastern coast
to the point nearest to Iceland and thence across
the strait to that island, which the line will tra
verse from west to east. Finally another sub
marine cable will stretch away to the Farce ISL
ands, and thence tothe northeTnmost extremity
of Scotland. There will be but three or four sta
tions in crossing the Atlantic, and the cables,
whose junction will form the ocean line, will va
ry from hundred to five hundred miles in
length. Quebec and London will form the two
tcrmini of the line, which it is stated can be
completed in less than eighteen months.

BALTIMORE AND OnIo RAfLRoAD.-No railroad
in the United States offers greater advantages to
travellers than the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
The receipts for the past three months show a
vast increase over the receipts of the same
months of last year, and clearly proves that the
road is appreciated by the people in the Mississip
Pi valley. Besides the advantages of scenery,
travellers bound East have the option of visiting
and trading in three cities, viz: Baltimore, New
York, and Philadelphia, an advantage, afforded
by no other road from the West This is given
at no additional cost for travel. We warmly
commend this road to our travelling friends

greatest producer, giving about million Of tons
Assuming the population of tho world to be 600

TRIBUTE 70 PRrsTras-The chaplain of the
New Hampshire Penitentiary, in reviewing the
events of his life, since his connection with that
institution, pays the following compliment to
journeymeu printers:
81 have the happiness to number among my
friends many printers, but though it may seem
to imply either lack of ability Of the minister,
or the want of the qualities that are necessary
in order to appreciate good preaching on the
other part, yet will reveal the fact that have
never succeeded well with that class. For nine
long years, and with all the inducements offered,
not one Of that trade has connected himself with
my congregational do mt think man could
be found, Of all who ever tenanted our prison,
who could set up column Of type. leave the
reader to make his own comments, only remark
ing that this cannot be accidental, nor can the
explanation be that the employment keeps them
ignorant Of prevailing vices and imnoralities,
nor yet that young printers are removed from
the large masses where corruptions engender
and spread In all these respects this class of
our people arc very much exposed. 1t is evil
dent, we think, that the employment has an cl-
eyating tendency, aud is favorable to intellectual
and moral improvement"

A coxuOS SENSE y1Ew.-The New York
Courier closes an article on the Champion case
with this language:
But although SIr. Champion now must go,
and although he has Obliged US to send lin
home at time when most unwise recognition
Of the government of Walker has added greatly
to the Complication of our negotiations with
Great Britain with regard to Central american
affairs, and at q time when there is some sore
ness on the part of both nations towards each
other, and some disposition on the part Of those
who hold the power of both Governments to
precipitate hostilities for party purposes, and
although Great Britain is at present in condi-
ton as regards her great arm-her ileet-which
would enabled her to attack us at the greatest
possible advantage, we do NOS now believe that
the chances Of war, although increased, are i'm
incnt; and we rest our opinion upon an appTe-
citation of the common sense and the common
interest of the two countries. England and
the United States will not go to war except up
on the direst necessity. That may arise; but
we cannot believe it will. We shall see Ar.
Champion leave US with much regret, but with
little apprehension.
