The CRTTENDEN MEErNG.-We hardly
thought that any considerable number of men
could be so foolish as to assemble at Washing
ton at this early day for the express purpose of
putting Mr. Crittenden in nomination for the
Presidency. 1t now appears that the movement
was of different nature. 1t was preliminary
conference among gentlemen who are strongly
opposed to modern Democracy, but have not
yet identified themselves with the Republican
party, although some recognized members of
this party were present. They talked over the
political character-and characters of the
times, had Il very pleasant occasion, and ended
off with a supper. The Washington correspon
dent of the New York T'mes gives the follow
ing gratifying account of the neutrality-suspicious.
Journal.
This discussions Of the evening were in excel
lent spirit. Everybody declared that he had NO
candidate, and all expressed an earnest desire
for the union of all the opposition forces against
the Democracy. Southern gentlemen present
declared themselves as hostile as Northern gen.
tlemen to slavery propagandism, and concurred
in the proprety of having Presidential candi-
date who represents that sentiment Some IA
vored the construction of a new purity, and de-
sired to issue an address, but the general sentl-
mant was against this course The position OF
the Republican party as a great power was fully
recognized. and decided majority conceded
that its DISCRIMINATION would be neither polite
nor desirable; that said party has vitality and
force which must be awaited of in any effort to
change or reform the administration Of the fed
eral government The meeting adjourned in
excellent temper, without any action having
been decided upon
The effect Of this movement tends towards the
fusion of all sections of the opposition, upon
Whatever ticket shall in due time seem most
likely to achieve substantial victory"

The g tactics of Burlington are getting to
be understood IN various parts Of the State, and
appreciated. We copy from the Orleans Coun-
ty Standard IA very sensible and convincing ar
tice which will be found in another part of
this paper. The respectable inhabitants of Bur-
lington will begin to discover, probably, the
impoicy of committing their character and
onnions to such expounders as Edmunds and
Clarke-those twin pinks Of Lake Shore man
ners 1t is of no concern of ours, but if Bur-
lington chooses to endorse, by her sileAce, the
g tactics of the dough head and nincompoop
of the Times, it must take the consequences.
PS. Those who happen to see the Times will
see that the above is slightly stolen from that
paper.

PAINFUL. ACCIDENT TO Mr.. GRAY OF THE
PLAIN DEALER.-Wo were much panied to
learn yesterday that Mr.. Joseph w. Gray
had sustained the evening before an injury
to one of his eyes which resulted in its to-
tai loss. We are sure mono svmpatize with
him moro sincerely than ourselves. We
copy from last evenings Dealer :-"Early
last evening Mr.. Gray's little son was anus,
ing himself by exploding percussion caps
on toy gun, when about one-third of q
cap struck Mr.. Gray, who happened to be
standing about five feet distant, entering
the right eye, very little to tho right and
below the center of the pupil, passing en-
tirely through the cornea, giving FREQ dis
charge to tho aqueous humor, and lodging
in the anterior chamber of tho eye.
"Drs, Ackley and Garlick were immcdi
ately called but the piece being longer in
one direction than the other, and having ev.
identity entered lengthwse, and changed its
position, it was found very difficult to Sc
fasten the instrument to it as to extrac
it without enlarging the aperture, but skill
and endurance proved equal TO the occasion
and it was successfully extracted at a littlC
before l o'clock.
"Under the influence of opiates Mr.. Gra,
was able to get some rest during the latte
part of the night, and is as comfortable to
day as could we'll bo expected. Hopes arc
entertained that the ball of the eye may bC
saved, though the vision will be lost
