Thrilling Incident.

The IIollidaysburg Standard relates the
following thrilling incident that occurred
on the u>ylvania Railroad on the 4th in
slant:
AS one If the freight trains coming
east rounded a sharp curve, near Barrce
Siding, tue engineer saw a small child sit
tin. in the middle Of the track, playing,
unconscious of its danger. lie instantly
whis,lcd down brakes, and reversed his
engine, but the weight Of the train and the
high speed at which il was running, render
ed 1t impossible 10 stop before reaching the
child, which must inevitably have been
crushed 10 death. In this emergency, when
most men would have stood paralyzed with
horror, the conductor Of the train Daniel
Mccoy. with stcadiucss Of nerve that has
few parallels, ran to the front Of the engine,
crawled down on the cow-catcher, and hold
ing himself with one hand, leaned as far
forward as possible, and as he approached
the child with 4 sweeping blow of the other,
he threw if off the track. 1t was the work
of an instant. and required steady hand
and cool head to accomplish it, but he was
equal u the emergency. The train was i'm
mcdiately stopped and on going back the
child was found lying at the foot Of "a small
embankment some twenty or thirty feet
from the track Of the road, alive and kicking,
but somewhat stunned and bruised. The
child belonged to farmer named Ncff, re-
siding Immediately along the road. As may
well be supposed, the parents were protuse
in their expressions of gratitude To the no.
be-hcarted conductor. bur for whom their
child would have been carried to its home i

The Charleston Convention.

The Richmond Enquirer Of Thursday last
contains very significant article from which
we make the following extract:
"What tbs nation wants at this time, is
laws enforced, property protected from John
Browns, both in States and Territories. The
morai Of lIarper's Ferry. teaches that the IN
tercsation of authority, both State and Fed
eral, is demanded as much in the States as
in Territories. Intervention is not wanted
to introduce, but to protect slavery. The
average common sense of mankind, the Re-
publican phrase for insurrection, is but Il
pathological expression for the ncgaton Of
law-non-imterrention. Upon the Charles
ton Convention will devolvc the duty Of
drawing the line Of demarcation broad and
distinct, in platform and candidate. from
Black Republicanism. No compromise ~tN
he eHtertdiHed
The South knowsits rights, and Harper :
Ferry teaches she must maintain them
Mogtd the Union surcire the approaching
Congress-. the Charleston Convention will de-
eide its fate. If the South is permitted by
an existing Union 10 meet the Northern De-
mocracy in Charleston. the consultation will be
calm and deliberate The first men of the
South will be there assembled. No scheming,
plotting politician, seeking an opportunity to
barter rights for public plumber. will be ableto
crafty his reasonable propensities; butt in
tirmness and with dignity, the doctrine Of
interrention for protectioa will be insisted
upon BY the South, and the representatives
of the Northern Democracy will decide the
issue. If Jar Intervention, the nomination
will be proceeded with; if ayaina interven-
ton, there will be leave-taking. bidding
adieu, separation a disUaion, "A secession that
will be not only prognostic, but potent-a
shadow of coming events cast warnin2ly be-
fore to inform aud deter. The Democratic
candidates must be presented to the people
OF fall the States upon the uh,matnm Of the
Constitution as understood and decided by
the Supreme Court If there are not conser-
natives enough at the North to elect conser-
vative candidates, there will scarcely be
found Conservatives enough at the South to
save the Union: As honest journalists, in 4
position which enables us To know Southern
opinion. and to see and understand all the
movements upon the chess board of Southern
politics, we calmly warn our Northen allies
of the danger"

Arrival Of the city Of baltimore.

New YORK, April -.
The Steamship. City of Baltimore, arrived
this morning, with Liverpool dates to the
Both ult. Nothing was definitely known as
to the Peace Congress, but Baden was be-
lieved to have been fixed upon, as the place
for meeting. England consents to the adj
mission Of Sardinia, by representative,
without a vote, and the other Italian States
the same.
In Parliament, Lord Malmsbury made
some admissions in regard to Lord Cowley's
Mission, and expressed the hope that peace
would be maintained.
There was less confidence in peace at Par
is, Vienna and Turin, where war like pre-
parations continue.
! The Paris Bourse was depressed, The
report ofa pending French loan, was sup
posed to have some influence ia the depres-
sion.
The debate on the Reform Bill continues
every night. Avote was to be taken on the
3lst. The Ministry have staked their fate
on the issue. The Liberal journals consider
their resignation certain.
The Peace Congress will probably meet
between the 10th and Goth.
