to the probable action of the Charles.
ton Convention "lt is more certain
than ever that the Northern delega-
tions, both in regard to the platform
and the nomination of candidates for
the Presidency and Vice Presidency,
will defer to the South. The South
must furnish nearly all the electoral
votes, and of course have a right to
choose the candidates. If Southern
man be nominated as President, it is
very probable that Governor Horatio
Seymour will be selected as Vice
President, in Difference to the wishes
of the vast majority of Democrats Of
the Empire State. 1t is thought that
bis name on the ticket would go far
TO secure the electoral vote of New
York; but must say that no one
can count upon New York in any
event. But the result of the Fall
Election of State officers may indi-
cate change favorable to the De-
mocracy."

"The Warren Sunbeam" is the title
ola newspaper published in Warren,
Bradley county, Arks., by Tom W.
Neal, formerly of Tennessee. The
Sunbeam appears to be quite an "El-
ephanl' to the inhabitants Of its re-
gion. The editor has had all the elite
of the town as visitors to his office,
where the guests uncorked bottles Of
wine and other good things, and leas-
ted al handsomely. The editor re-
turns his thanks to one Of the green
bag gentry for services as mailing
clerk, and signifies his willingness for
the said legal gentleman to do the
same thing again. The editor is the
big bug, and the people will not allow
him to buy anything, but give him all
he wants. If anybody will buy us
out, believe we will go "thar."

SLAVERY ACrrArIoN.-The N. Y.

We have been suffering the extrem-

ought now to begin to see that the
most important political work we have
to do is to combine as one people in
the resolve to put this tremendous So
cal question OF Slavery out Of the
reach of partisan agitatatons. 1t is
a madness, to which the madness Of
John Brown was statesman.like good
sense, to triae any longer in caucuses
and conventions with issues so full of
the very lfe's blood of one great Sec
ton of the Confederacy.

ROMANCE.

The history oil nymph du pave -
one Of our most charming courtezans,
in fact, is quite romantic. She is the
daughter OF a professor of theology in
Ohio. Four years ago she was belle
in her native city--courtcd and ad.
mired, and hence vain and proud. A
young man, a carpenter, now in this
city, made honorable proposals Of
marriage, but was haughtily spurned.
A merchant became her accepted lo-
vcr-the wedding day was appointed
and the night before that one on
which she expected to become his
bride, and while her father was atten-
ding a meeting to raise funds for an
African Missionary enterprise, she
was seduced by her lover. Next day
he clandestinely left the city, having
made an assignment. Her father,
when the fruit Of shame was Bios
soming, absolutely kicked her from
his door. A compassionate woman
took her in-nurscd her--her child
lived four days--and she became, per
| force, a prostitute. Such is the story
of n woman's weakness and a fathers
hardness of heart, and such is the ro.
nance of novels actualized.-Spring.

NOT AN lNSURRECYION.


The recent outbreak at lIarper's
Ferry, was. in no sense. an inSu,1'ec.
ton The slaves had no part nor lot
in the matter, except in so iaras some
Of them were (orccd.Io take part by the
mcnaces of "Old Brown" and the
fourteen white men under his com
mand. There were five free negroes
engaged in the affair, but not a Sjngic
Slace And even the free negroes
thus engaged were not Virginia free
ncgroes-that is, not residents Of this
Stale-but residents Of the Northern
States, whom Brown brought along
with him to aid in his lanatical and
diabolicaI scheme.
We repeat that the affair at IIar-
pcr's Ferry was not an insurrcction
at all-that the slaves had nothing to
DO with it--that, on the contrary, the
slaves themselves were terrified and
panic stricken by the audacious inva-
sion Of these Abolition conspirator3.
We desire the Northern people-espe-
cially the Northern Abolitionists, who
prate ahou, the oppression and dscon-
tent of Southern slavcS--to remember
the striking aud significant fact that
the slaves were not participants in the
late alla r, and that affair itself was,
therefore, not slave insurrection in
any sense OF to any extent. but a pure
and absolute conspiracy and invasion
on the part of Northern Abolitionsts
alone We wish them to put this
great and instructive fact in their
pipes, and smoke it at their leisure {;
and they will learn thoreirom another
great, instructive, and incontroverti-
bic fact. to wit:-that the slaves of
the south are contcntcd with their lot,
pcaceabIy disposed, loyal TO their
masters, and hate a medding Northern
intruder and Abolitionist with per-
feet hatred. Let them remember this
truth, too, that the c!.ief unlappincss
of Southern slaves is produced by
fear of the Abolitonists--by an APP
prehension on their part that the ABB
olitionis,s will, some time or other,
and some how or other, iorcbly ab-
duct them from their humane masters
and comfortable homes, and take them
to the free North or to Canada J.
This fact may be new TO the Northern
| Abolitionists but it is nevertheless a
fact and should be allowed to have its
just and proper influence upon the
Northern mind. The slaves both fear
and hate the Northern Abolitionists
and look upon them, as they reall,
are, as their worst and only enemies
With here and there a single excep
ton, the slaves of the South hav,

rection. nor can they-with such ex

HIGH RENTS IN NASHVILLE.


HIGH RENTS IN NASHVILLE.
A Nashville correspondent of the
Huntsville Independent states some
pertinent facts in the following para.

"a word about houses and rents.---
Nashville has fewer houses and high

What with the present frightful ex.
