Ren-The Princeton Convention. was a
very harmonious one. Judge Niblack was
nominated on the first ballot, there being
only four votes in opposition, and those
were from Warrick county, for Judge Law.
The Cincinnati Platform was re-adopted,
with some unmeaning addenda.
Judge Niblack made a speech, accepting
the nomination; making suitable acknowl-
Judgements for the honor, and pledgiug
himself to beat Judge Hovey, if he could.
He was followed by Mr.. DENLY, Of the
Custom House, who glorifed LecomptoniSm
and Mr.. Buchanan. He was succeeded by
Mr.. Mcdonald the 9Th of January candi-
date for Attorney General of the State
The Convention passed resolution rec
ommending NJ. f. Burke, Esq, of Washing
ton, Davies county, as candidate for the
Office of Circuit Judge.
The canvass is now f.irIy open and the
issue is with the people.
Mr.. Mcdonald will address the citizens at
the Court House, this evening, we are in
formed.

Warriclk County Fair.

The second Fair of the Warrick Agricul-
Grounds, near Boonville, from the 18th OF
September to the lst of October, inclusive.
We learn that preparations are making to
render the exhibition worthy of the agri-
cultural riches of old Warrick. The little of
Lecomptonism spread abroad in her bor-
ders, has not impaired her products this
season, and her harvests of the fruits of the
earth, will be as sound as the crop of good
principles which she will display in 0cto-
Der. Her corn and her anti-Lecomptonism
are coming out from the effects of the I'M
favorabeness of Spring in manner to
cheer the farmers.

The Failure of the ocean Telegraph.


The project of laying an ocean telegraph
ic cable on which so many brilliant hopes
have been fed, has proved a failure. 1t has
been beautiful dream-sublime in concep-
ton, benefcient in design, but it has proved
impracticable. The only hope of accom-
plishing the magnificent scheme now left is
the suggestion to take the wire to the Farce
Island, to the North of Scotland, thence to
Iceland and Greenland ndacross to the main
land, and down the coast of Labrador to the
regions of civilization. But there are so
many obstacles in the climate and condition
of the country as to render this project for
permanent and regular use, as hopeless as
that across the ocean. But wepresume that
the idea of a Geographic communication
between the two continents will not be
abandoned till this northern way has been
tried. 1t would require the submerging of
no greater length of cable than is now sue
ceSSfully worked under the sea.
The previous intelligence from the tele-
graphic feet, told us that the Niagara had
been met not tar west OF the point at which
the two steamers were to join their por-
tons OF the cable, and start each for its own
land, and her officers stated that they had
met very bad weather, the Agamemnon had
suffered terribly, being at one time in great
danger OF sinking, the cable had been loos-
ened from its bed on that vessel by the
pitching OF the sea, the coal had been tum-
bied out of its place and was thrown yio-
lently about, and fears for the soundnesS of
the cable were entertained The Niagara
had suffered little, and the cable had not
been displaced or injured SO far as known.
Such tumbling as the wire must have
got Oh the Agamemnon was quite well
adapted to destroying its already doubtful
power of conducting an electric current
three thousand miles. Consequently, when
the junction was made and the paying out
begun, there was little TO astonish anybody
in the breaking of the line before the vessels
| had gone ten miles. 1t did break in little
| time. The vessels came together again, re-
| spliced and started on second expedition.
This time some forty miles had been run
out, when communication ceased
After communication ceased, the Niagara
! allowed swing to the cable and in addition
strain of four tuns was applied to Il Q
bral es. Although blowing fresh, the cable
held her an hour, when a sudden pitch OF
the sea snapped the cable and the Niagara
bore away for Queenstown.
Should nothing be heard of the Agamem-
non, the Niagara, after coaling, will proceed
to mid ocean, having still thirteen hundred
miles of the cable.
1t is conjectured that the Agamemnon
had not delivered the arranged quantity OF
coil at the time of the failure, and was
awaiting the Niagara.
After the experience in the trials already
made, there is little faith in the final success
| of the undertaking.

BIy"A very sad affair occurred in Prince
ton, Butler county, Ohio, on Thursday. \
butcher named Daniel Elliott had lately ex-
tended his business, and being in good
humor and full of fun, lie thought he would
play off a joke and brighten his wife. He
took with him couple of boys aud went to
his slaughter house, where he fastened a
rope, attached TO a machine for raising cat
tic, around his neck, and sending one OF
the boys to his house to tell his wife
that man 'who looked like Dan Elliott
was hanging in the slaughter house, he bid
the other pull him up. This was done, and
when Mrs. Elliott reached the place her nus
band was hanging sure enough, and per-
fectly dead-l ratchet preventing the boy
from letting him down after pulling hin
up. Mr.. Z. was always full of pranks, and
it is not doubted that what terminated St
fatally was intended as a joke.

The weather, yesterday, was warm. In
the forenoon foggy, and in the afternoon
gathering clouds gave indication of rain
The business on the levee was as brisk as
could be expected, though not much was do
ing.
Judging from the river columns of our
exchanges we should think that business
was unusually dull in all of our sister cities.
We clip the following from the Cincinnati
Gdzete of Wednesday:
The weather was hot with indications of
falling weather last evening. The river is
falling, having receded since it came 10 a
stand, five inches. At PittSburg there is
less than four feet water by the mark, which
will not allow more than 80 inches scant at
the Sisters, and 81 feet at Wheeling. On
Letart, Burlington and BlennerhasSett's,
there is fully six feet water. Hence to Lou
isville, there is nine feet water, with FIVE
and half feet in the canal, and forty inch
eS on the falls in the pass. In the lower
Ohio there is sufficient water for all classes
of steamers. On the levee yesterday there
was decidedly an improvement in offerings
for Wheeling and PittSburg. To St. Louis,
Nashville, Memphis and New Orleans, there
are only moderate offerings, the rates to all
points . naming firm.
The river is reported by the Louisville
papers to be rising at that point, with some
foot inf hu fI..Y
We learn that the Baltic, Capt. Meekin,
will be laid up at Louisville for a while.
The fine steamer II. D. Ncwcomb will be
down this evening.
The Scioto, No. ?, will also be down, on
her way TO Henderson.
The Cairo correspondent of the Missouri
Republican, is in eXtacies over the arrival
of the cars in that city. Hear him:
Well, the cars have come into Cairo
again, and the inhabitants are jubilant. 1t
sounds very natural to hear the shrill sound
of the steam whistle on our levee again. \
freight train got in Saturday night, and was
Immediately followed by the passenger train.
A number of rockets were sent up, as the
occasion was considered as a sort of second
airy Fourth of July. The trains will here
after run regularly from aEd to Cairo, and
our Mound City friends will be left Of not
bigh) at least as dry as usual, as that is the
dryest place now extant. The time on the
Illinois Central will be changed SO as &c
make close connections, if possible, with the
Ohio and Mississippi; but the change vii
not take place until next week, and then
the trains will be obliged to leave here at !
a. NJ. and p. NJ. This may be somewhat o
an annoyance to passengers, but it show:
the disposition of the managers of the Hi.
nois Central TO accommodate the public a
far as they can.
The rivers are falling here at the sam,
rate as last reported, the Ohio having re-
coded two inches in twelve hours yesterday

North yesterday afternoon.
