Ascending Sherifs.

Geo. W. Glass, Sheriff of Mcdowell county, left
home about the middle of September last ostcnsbly
to visit Raleigh and settle his taxes with the Comp
trollcr and Treasurer of State. At Salisbury, it is
presumed, he took the wrong end of the railroad,
and so far as we informed he has not since been
heard Of No doubt he has absconded, carrying of
large amount of money.
Mr. Glass has always been considered an honor
able, upright mar and good citizen His flight has
much surprised all.his friends and acquaintance
and for some time it supposed that he had been
murdered on his way to Raleigh, his friends choos-
ing to think So rather than that he had betrayed his
trust.
Last week the Magistrates of the county elected
James NJ Neal to fill out the uncxpired term of Mr..
Glass.
Solomon Ray, The Sheriff of Yancey county, has
also absconded. He came to Raleigh in due time
and settled his tax account; but few weeks ago
he left home to attend Court in Madison county, and
has not been heard from since. 1t is supposed he
carried off about $4,000.
The Magistrates of Yancey have elected Charles
Byrd to fill out Rays unexpired term.

SOUTHERN CONVENTION.


By reference to the publication elsewhere it will
be seen that the committee appointed by the late
Southern Convention at Montgomery have called
another Convention, to be held at Vicksburg, Miss
on the 9th day of May next The committee, which
by the way is very influential one, consists of
Messrs. J. D. B. DeBow of Louisiana, John j.
McRae of Mississippi, Guy NJ. Bryan of Texas, W.
l.. Yancey of Alabama, and ". Fl. Chase of Florida.
The call of the committee is very strongly worded
and audes to the preponderance of sectional fanati.
cism at the North in terms not to be misunderstood
We hold the observations on these points to be well.
timed and trust they will be productive of one good
effect at east-that is, We hope they will have ten
dency to induce our people to think seriously on the
subject. There is yet time for thought and action,
but not much to spare The South has dilly.dallied
too long already. The wolf of Abolition is not yery
far from her doors.
If these annual Conventions accomplish n,thing
else, they do much good by bringing together large
numbers Of intelligent and prominent men from all
sections Of the South, because thus albeit informally
a unity OF sentiment is brought about, and unity
of sentiment generally results in harmony of action
We again refer to the call of the committee. II
will be found worthy attentive perusal

IMPORTANT ACTS.


We publish in the Crescent this morning two i'm
portant laws passed by the last Legislature Of Louis
ana. The first, introduced in the House of Repre-
sentatives, by the Hon. John E. Holland of this city
is entitled an Act supplementary to an Act entitled
an Act to provide for leveeng draining and reclaim
ing Swamp Lands in certain portions of the Parishes
OF Orleans and Jefferson" approved March IA, 1858
This is a measure of considerable importance, and
will we are inclined to believe accomplish the highly
desired end aimed at. If these swamps can be com
pletely reclaimed of which there is little or no doubt
in the minds of scientific men who have investigated
the subject thoroughly the health of this metropolis
will be vastly improved, and, with good health, it
will increase in population, wealth and importance
with almost incalculaby rapid strides.
The other law is entitled "an Act to prevent per.
sons from transacting business under fictitious
names." This law, although short, is remarkably
stringent and comprehensive. We commend those
interested to pay due heed to it, If they do not tbey
may be mulcted in heavy fines.

lhese performances were different in their nature
and IN Ihe manner OF their delivery bnt they were
NOT dnerent IN general excellence. We never saw
boys declalm with more SPIRIT or afford more pleasure
TO an audience. The acting scenes, and " Box and
Cox in particular afforded the keenest entertain
ment, and drew forth the most enthusiastic plaudits,
Next in order came the presentation Of the prize
medals The first, the Touro medal, presented annu
ally to the first proficient in ancient history was
awarded to Master Ernest Lewis. The presentation
was made by J. Ad. Rozier, Esq, and accompanied
with tasteful and feeling address to the recipient

Claudius W. Sears, Esq, Dean of the Collegiate
Faculty afterward read list of the names of those
popIs who had in general acquitted themselves with
honor during the past year.
The exercises were closed with an address, on be.
half Of the Board, by Chief Justice Merrick. He
complimented in high terms not only the young gem
tlemen who had SO finely illustrated the value of the
unvers'tys education, but the Dean, Prof. Sears,
and the General Superintendent, Prof Dufau.
The crowded audience dispersed whilst the band
played parting air, all highly gratifed with what
they had seen and heard.
