 THE SOUTHERN CoNvENrIoN.- Speak ing of the Southern Convention, which is to assemble in that city on the 9th of May, the Vicksburg Sun of the 18th inst. says:
 It is anticipated that the Convention which is to meet here in May, will be largely attend ed and that much good will flow from it's ac- tion. It will be composed of the flower of Southern chiyalry and Southern intellect, and under such circumstances it would be strange indeed if it's deliberations failed to exercise an influence most salutary, and keep alive spirit favorable to patriotism. The object of this Convention is good, and the motives of those who participate in them, for the most part, are above suspicion and these circumstances alone, in the absence of any other, should be sufficient to insure their perpetuation. With in the purview of the Convention which will assemble here in few weeks, comes every thing that relates to the intellectual, moral, educational, and industrial development of the South. That the delegates will fulfill the ex- pectations of the public, and devote their time and talents to the task of creating a healthy public opinion in the South, we hope it may be the case; and that they will prove them selves equal to the exigence of the occasion. and perform the duties that may devolye upon them with an eye single alone to the glory of the South, and the perpetuity of her institu- tions, we will not permit ourself to doubt for a moment

We fully endorse the following

PosroFrIcE DEPARTMENr.-The send ing by mail of ambrotypes, daguereo- types, and photographs is permitted upon the payment oi letter postage. To en- close one in a newspaper, paying only newspaper postage, is violation of the law, and subjects the offender to penal ty of S5. The General Postoffice, the other day, received return package mark ed and postpaid newspaper" directed to a town in Illinois, containing the Waverly Magazine of March 26th, printed in Bos- ton, enclosing an ambrorype, with very pretty note. of beautiful young girl, direct ed to Mir E. A. S., of the town aforesaid. Upon consultation, the department did not impose the fine for the reason that so much youth, beauty, and propriety as her note evinces, and as her ambrotype exquisitely confirms. could never intend a violation of the statute. IL was forwarded to the llli- nois Postoffiee with simple orders to collect the difference of postage. In passing through the circumlocutions of the depart ment the ambrotype of Julia" received the emphatic lip,joining of all the unmar- ried clerks. 1 Washington Star.

CoMpLAININo.-The Brownsville Echo complains that their mall matter comes to hand via Des Arc instead of via Claren. don. Of course it would be better that it should be sent round by New York and Boston-any way, so that 1t don't come from Des fire. Where is your daily mail from Memphis s? Has Little Rock mono polized all the mail matter, and will not give you "nary package9' Those who play second fiddle to the "cenlral power" need expect nothing but kicks and cuffs. Alas! poor Tray-caught in bad company.

EEy- The Quid- .Nunc, Tennessee paper, published at Grand Junction, thus alludes to the Railroad, for the construc. ton of which the people of Prairie county will soon be called upon to tax themselves. It will take every dollar that our people may subscribe to iqudate the present in. debtedness of the Company. If all reports are true, the Company is hopelessly insol- vent and our citizens can have no secu- rlty that the amounts subscribed by them can be applied to the construction of this end of the Road. Will not the Company be forced to apply it to the liquidation of debts now hanging over them? In a word, is it safe for our people to take stock in company which possesses not single element of solvency? It is worse than folly for the people of Arkansas to expend all their energies in project so utterly unfeasible:
 "The Memphis and Little Rock Railroad has not been operated for many weeks, on ac- count of the flood. A gentleman of Marion, Ark, has just made a LEVY on the Road for S25 ,000, which, however, will not save 1t from the present or any future overflow. Indeed, an overflow of the Coinpany's cotfers is needed to raise said levy"
