The Sugar Planters Convention.

This body closed its session yesterday, after
having transacted business of considerable i'm.
portance to the sugar interests of Louisiana,
The proceedings of the first day were merely
the organization and the appointment of a
committee to take into consideration the OBJ
jects of the convention, and report such reso-
buttons as might be deemed advisable, expires
sive of the views of the sugar planters of the
State. Yesterday morning the convention
again assembled, when Mr.. Williams. of
Lafourche, the Chairman of the Committee.
appointed on the previous day, made the fol-
lowing report:
The committee to whom was referred the OBJ
ject-matter for which this convention was
called, beg leave, through their chairman, to
report that
Whereas, The evils complained of and set
forth In a circular address, issued by the COM
mlttee appointed for that purpose by the con-
ventlon of sugar planters, held in NewOrleans
on the 10Th OF November last, are not mag
mary but real, and that the space afforded for
inc exhibition and sale Of sugar and molasses
In the city OF NewOrleans is insufficient, and
not likely to be extended for a limited time
only, if at all.
The committee are, therefore, unanimous in
opinion that another sugar mart is necessary.
and recommend the appointment of a COM
mlttee of ten members, to be composed of plan
tiers and merchants, to select a proper location
for the same, where ample space and time may
be afforded for the better protection of the
sugar interests Of Louisiana. All of which is
respectfully submitted.
After the reading of the report, Mr.. Will
mans made u few remarks, urging the adoption
Mr.. Chinn moved to amend the report, in
order to give the city authorities an opportu-
nlty to settle thadsieyances complained of by
the planters, ort furnish q suitable sugar mart
in the city of.{ewU ORGANS,
Mr.. Payne stated that the wharves and
iievees, being now in possession of the l~essees,
it was impossible for the City Council to afford
any assistance to the planters in the way of
providing q market-place for their sugar.
MIR. Cage made some remarks in regard to
the necessity of all persons, whether merchants
Or planters, standing upon one platform, on
he sugar question. He wished the planters
md merchants to act understandingly, and in
harmony on the question, in order that all
night be benefited by their action. There
vas nothing in the report of the committee
Vhlch prevented Encouragement being made
With the merchants or the city authorities.
On the assurance of several members of the
'onvention that there was nothing in the reso-
atlon, and that it was not the intention of the
invention to prevent the city authorities from
the grievances of the planters into con-

At the annual meeting of the American
Geographical and Statistical Society, held in
New Y ork on the 18th inst, Professor A.. d.
Bache, Superintendent Of the United States
Coast Survey, in his lecture on the subject OF
the Gulf stream, explained this phenomenon,
and showed, that though the difference of tenn
perature between the stream and the surround
ing water was marked aud excessive, it was
not continuous, as had been supposed to be,
but that had cold and hot bands, which eIided
'slde by side, and continually shifted their cur
rent. 1t was, however, not variable from year,
to year Or from season to season.
Three cold and hot bands ran parallel with
each other, after they passed Charleston, but
before that time they were scarcely discernible
afterwards, they were as readily to be marked
IN the chart, as any country on the map. The
value of the discoveries which had recently been
made by Professor Maury, aud others, in re-
ference to the current of the Gulf Stream, was
to be predicted. 1t would be estimated
in the history of our nation.

! The Buffalo Commercial gives an account Of
a late exhibition. Of spiritualism in that city.
The exhibition was in the old Temperance Hall
at night, and the exhit yyors an ex-policeman Of
Buffalo, his daughter, and two sons, all said to
be mediums. The two sons were seated upon
the stage, q guitar ing near one Of them ona
table, Lid it. announced that, if a couple
of gentleman would step upon the stage and
hold the hands and feet Of the boys, the guitar,
upon the blowing out Of the lights, would be
played on by spiritual influence. Accordingly
a couple Of gentlemen held the hands and, feet
Of the boys as desired, and when the lights were
out, the guitar gave forth sounds. While the
sounds were being produced, the gentleman
who was nearest the guitar suddenly let go
the hands of the medium and moved one of his
own quickly to the spot whence the sounds
proceeded, and, as he supposed caught the
spirit. There uponhe said aloud, "Gentle">
you may strike o light as quick as yoa
I have got a spirit" A light was struck, and
10 he had his hand clenched in the hair Of the
young medium-t's mediums nose on the
strings of the guitar-caught in the very act
of playing upon it with his nose. The medium,
speaking no doubt under the influence of some
incensed spirit, roared out, damn you, let go
of my hair" That was the end Of the exhibit

Which Was BEsr?--A visitor once went
into a school in this city, where he saw a boy
and girl on one seat, who were brother and
sister. In a moment Of thoughtless passion
the little boy struck his sister. The little girl
was provoked, and raised her hand to return
the blow. Her face showed that rage was
working within, and her cienched first was
aimed at her brother, when her teacher caught
her eye. "Stop, my dear" said he, you had
better kiss your brother than strike him. The
look and the word reached her heart. Her
hand dropped. She threw her arms around his
neck and kissed him." The boy was moved.
lie could have stood against the blow, but he
could not withstand d sisters kiss. [Boston

the defaulting treasurer of Holmes county

to one years Imprisonment in the Penitentiary.

the corn-crib belonging to Fl. Desessarts, sit
uated in the rear of his dwelling on Court
street, was consumed by fire. Loss small.
II Our celebrated fire engine did not appear on
the. ground, being unserviceable for the want
of less than a hundred dollars worth of repairs.
If an engine is Of any use in such cases, it
seems to us that a proper spirit of enterprise
should induce the appropriate authorities to
act in the matter, before a serious disaster
shall open their eyes to the dangers Of delay.
