VIRGINIA NoM1NAT1oNs.-The Democratic
Convention which met at Petersburg has made
the following nominations; not, however, with
out a very angry and exciting contest: For
Governor, John Letcher, of Rockbridge; for
Lieut.. Governor, R. L. Montague, Of Middlesex;
for Attorney General, J. Randolph Tucker, Of
Frederick
Notwithstanding the fierce opposition made
to the nomination of Mr.. Letcher, according to
the reported proceedings Of the Convention, the
most violent of his opponents grounded their
arms, when they were outvoted, and agreed to
support him. So that there will be no division
in the Democratic ranks.
Resolutions were introduced approving the
Administration and congratulating the Democ-
racy Of Illinois, upon their recent triumph in
the selection of Douglas, which were passed
but the last named subsequently reconsidered
and laid on the table,

The Four SISTERS; a Tale Of Social and
Domestic life IN Sceeden, by Miss BEMEr.-
This work has recently been published by Messrs.
I. B. Peterson & Brothers, Philadelphia. It is
written in the best style Of this charming author
ess. The subject of the story is wonan's life
and a wonan's fate. We could not better re-
commend the work to our readers than by copy
ing what Charles G. Leland, Esq, editor of the
Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, says of it:
'sThis novel is worth all that Miss Bremen
ever wrote. We know of no novel SO inspired
by all which can deeply interest the philanthro-.
pist and the one who studies the social defects
OF the age, as this of the -Four Sisters by Miss
Bremen. There is an infinite earnestaess, an
lndlscribable truthfulness in it, which contrasts
with the flat romancer of the day as gold con-
trasts with lead. 1t is a work by one who has
studied the sufferings of daily life, and the wrongs
inflicted on woman, not only in Sweden, but in
the world; and these wrongs and sufferings, and
their remedy are all set forth with spirit and
strength. which have seldom been equalled ~
Miss Bremen has, in the Four Sisters, carefully
analysed the social wants Of woman, and vindi--
Gated their abilities No book ever written sets
forth, as it does, the social disabilities under
which women labor. 1t shows that by making:
of woman mere home-body, she may also be-
made the subject of the crueest and most wear
ing oppression, the most deadening wrongs,
those wrongs which cannot be proclaimed to the.
world, yet which slowly kill all happiness
Deny it who may, all the heroic sufferings of
men, all the agones of which we hear, all the,
martyrdoms recorded, never equalled one tenth
of the hidden sufferings of women. It is true,
that they are less than they were but it is also
true that until rational system of education as
Miss Bremen asserts, is introduced, an education.
elevating head and heart, woman will not be
what she is capable of becoming. The novel is
one Of philanthropy, as well as to those who.
simply wish to read a very interesting and af-

BsyThe Washington Union well argues
that the opening of the trade with China and
Japan is destined to exert most powerful slim
ulous on our California possessions; and the
great increase Of population and business there,
will urge through the best means of connection
with the eastern States. Settlements will spring
up all along the lines of connection, and soon
our continent will be belted by chains of popu-
tation fanking the lines of railroad from ocean

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE-Iha- dwelling no

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE--Iha- dwelling ho of
Mr.. Richard o. Mullikin, about three miles rom
Upper Marlboro was entirely consumed by fire
on Friday the 26th ult The fire was discover
ed at a very early hour, and SO rapid were the
flames, that the large force of servants and 9TH
ers who fastened to the place were unable to do
more than save the furniture and vah1ables in the
lower rooms. The building was large one,
and the loss is heavy, there being but partial
insurance-about ST. 800.

A FEEJEAN EXECUTIoN.-The Rev. Thomas
Williams, who was thirteen years missionary
among the Feejee Islanders, thus describes their
mode of executing criminals:
Young men, are deputed to naict the appoint
ed punishment, and are often messengers of
death. Their movements are sudden and de-
structlve, like tropical squall. The protract-
ed solemnity of public executions in civilized
judged in his absence, and executed before he is
aware that sentence has been passed against
him. Sometimes little form is observed. as
in the case of the Vasu to Yuma. This man
conspired against the life of Tuikiakila; but the
plot was discovered, and the Vasu brought to
meet death at Somosono. His friends prepared
him, according to the custom of Feejee, by fold
ing large new mast about his loins, and oiling
and backing his body as if for war. A neck
lace and profusion of ornaments at his elbows
and knees completed the ATTIRE He was then
placed standing, to be shot by a man suitably
equipped. The shot failed, when the musket
was exchanged for club, which the execution
er broke on the Vasu's head; but neither this
blow, nor second from more ponderous
weapon, succeeded in bringing the young man
to the ground. The victim now ran towards
the spot where the King sat- perhaps with the
hope of a repreve; but was felled by a DEATH
blow from the club of man stapanou e OF the
SAKE SaKed thighs the King sent to his brother, who
was principal in the plot, that he might ''taste
how sweet his accomplice was, and eat Of the
fruits of his doings" This is a fair sample of
a Feeiean public execution. Those who are to-
die are never, so far as l know, bound in any
way. "A Feejean is implicitly submissive to the
will of his chief The. executioner states, his err
rand, to which he replies, "Whatever the King
saws, must be DONE

CoNsUMPTIoN.-Thef following recipe for the
cure of consumption, colds, &C., is published by
the Cuthbert (Ga.) Reporter, at the instance of
a minister of that place, who is informed that it
is almost infallibe. It is at least worth trial:
''Take one quart of pure gin, one gill of fresh
just as it comes from the tree, mix
well and let it stand four hours, then add half
a pint of clear honey and shake well. Take one
table spoonful three times day and a cure is
certain"

JARVIS ISLAND Cause.-The ship White
Swallow has lately arrived at New York with a
cargo of guano from Jarvis Island, which it will
be remembered, was visited couple of years a.
go by Com. Merwin, whose report was not, ia
vorable to the prospective interests of the Amer
lean Guano Company. The guano on the is
land is declared inexhaustible, but its value as
manure is yet to be settled.

A SOLDIERS LIFE IN UrAH.-A letter to the
Philadelphia Bulletin from Camp Floyd, Utah
Territory, dated, October ~, says: "The quar-
tiers Of the troops going up rapidly, the soldiers
making mortar and carrying 'dobbies' to the
masons who are citizens hired by the quarter
master at the pretty fair figure Of six dollars a
day and found Here you see party mixing
mud, there party carrying dobies there a
squad carrying lumber, and there another squad
mailing on the rough roofs. Each man has his
place, in the allotment of which your correspon-
dent occupies the respectable and responsible
position of bod carrier for a Mormon. Many
hands make light work, however, and the 'fa-
tigue duty, as it is called, is nothing. more than
healthful pleasant exercise and all day long the
merry jokes and joyous laugh go round and all
are grateful to Heaven and the Peace Commits
sioners at the prospect of better time this win
ter than was experienced last season. The
buildings will be substantial and comfortable,
and every exertion is being made to render them
as pleasant as possible"

The SLAYER EcHo.-The Grand Jury of the
United States Circuit Court of South Carolina
have finally refused to find indictments against
the parties in the Echo case. The refusal of
a Southern jury to enforce the law against the
slave trade is fair offset to the refusal of Nor
thern courts to enforce the fugitive slave law.
