priyateering.

The Paris correspondent of the Philadelphia
Ledger says, that while the United States Govern
ment has been officially informed that it is not the
intention of the parties of the Paris Convention
to force its stipulations the acceptance OF the
United States it is equally true Oh the other hand,
that the Count de Sartiges returned from Wash
ington month sooner than he contemplated for
the purpose of pressing the various points OF the
Convention on the immediate consideration of our
Government, with view perhaps of modifying
the point relating to privateerng, SO as to make it
accAtablc to u.s. We presume that geographical
differences viii not prevent Southern statesmen
from standing by the ship-owning interests OF the
North. 1t is pity, though, that an equal fidel
ity to great Southern interests does not prevail
throughout the country.

hoped that the resolution would prevail. He had

Mr.. Meade, of Virginis, proposed that each del

A delegate from Maryland suggested the name

The motion to draw lots was sustained, but Mr.
Ludlow, on the part of the Softs, declined to go in
to the game of chance. There being therefore but
one name in the hat. that of Augustus Schel,
that gentleman was declared the member of the
General Committee.
The usual vote of thanks of the Convention
was then rendered to the Secretary and the cit

After the adjournment, Mr. Ward, the President

The sumner Assault.

1t appears from the evidence of the most reliable
witnesses before the Congressional Committee
that Mr. BROOKS and Mr.. Sumner are men Of about
equal activity and strength; that Sumner was du-
" warned of Mr.. Brooks hostile purposes; that
Mr.. Brooks had waited for Mr.. Sumner two success
sive mornings outside the Capitol; that by the
time be received the second blow he was on his
feet that he was not struck more than dozen
blows in all, and none after he was down. The
testimony of his physician tends to confirm the
suspicion that his wounds were never serious, and
that he might have resumed his seat in the Senate
chamber the next day, if he had not wished to
make capital for his party by feigning extreme
suffering.
We confess that when we see the prodigious ex.
element which this slight fagellation of North
ern fanatic occasions, and remember how South
ern men and officers of the law, engaged in re-
claiming Southern slaves, have been ruthlessy
slaughtered on Northern soil, with mono to utter
a word of indignation or a threat of vengeance,
we cannot but feel that, practically, there is no
equality between the two sections that the one
is treated az the vassa the other as the lord

abolition of slavery But, now, when it begins to

Mr. Smith, however, excuses himself from TAX

to pay others to do it, but says he is too old and too
ignorant of arms himself to fight. We thank this
