Full eighteen hundred years or more,
I've kept my doors securely tied,
There is no "little angel strayed,
Nor has been missing all the while,
! did not sleep, as you supposed,
Nor leave the door of Heaven ajar;
Nor has a 'little angel left.
And gone down with a falling ster.
Go ask that 'bloshing bride" and see
If she won't frankly own aud say,
That when she found that angel babe,
She found it by the good old way.
God grant but this-I ask no more;
That should your number be enlarged,
That you will not do as before,
And lay it to old Peters charge.

The GREAT CoNvENTIoN-A well inform
ed friend at Chicago writes to us that on all
sides are heard the notes of preparation. The
railroads are not less moved than other inter
ests. In regard 10 the extra train OF next
Monday, he says: "The distance from the
Bridge to Detroit is 229, thence to Chicago
2S4, making a total of 513 miles time from
A. M, to 10 P. NJ, sixteen hours giving a
running time of thirty-two miles per hour,
stops included. 1t will stop only for wood and
water, say at intervals of fifty miles, and will
make time. 1t will be rugged with cluster"
SO that passengers will have no chance to eat
their peck of dirt while in that train Every
precaution has been made for the safety and
comfort of all. 1t will be accompanied from
Detroit by the superintendent and other off
GERS of the Michigan Central road.
After days work which one generation
since would have been pronounced fabulous,
our friends will have a welcome such as no
anti-savery men of twenty years ago could
have expected ever to have witnessed.

INFANT MUSICAL PRoGIDr.-The following
interesting particulars of a remarkable case Of
musical precocity, are communicated to the
Salem Observer from young lady, music
teacher in Essex, who has had the child under
her instruction for several months:
Martha Story is child of Mr. Andrew
Story I'd, of Essex, and was three years of age
the 10th of November last | am a music
teacher, and have boarded in Mr.. Storeys fam
lly since last September. Previous to that
time little Martha had never heard PLAYING on
the piano or melodeOn, though she had one of
the latter instruments. She could sing well
at the age of one year. When l had been
with her few days, | observed her trying to
play the air of "Greenville." 1t struck my
fancy that l might teach her to play it, with
both hands, in the course of two or three
months; but instead OF months it was only
two or three days, when by my playing it over
few times with her fingers, sine could play it
alone. | taught her two or three tunes in the
same way and in about month she com
menced to play by initiating what she heard
played; and showing her on the bass she i'm.
proved every day. On the ll,h of January,
she ran from her play to the melodeon stood,
and blew the bellows with her foot, and PLAYED
"Oh Susanna" for the first time, with both
hands, as well as any one could, and at the
same time looking out of the window. She
can play almost any tune she hears in the same
way. She never looks on her hands while
she is playing. Her time and accent are very
good. She has played tunes by only hearing
them two or three times, and can play on any
key and get the right bass the first time
She has quite an idea about composing. AL
most every day she will play chords Of four
parts Cor as she calls it, "making up tunes"),
and give strains that are very pleasing She
has made eight or nine tunes that are very
pretty, and she can play i'll the dark or blind
folded. She could play march on the KEY of
~ natural :; and while | was giving a lesson
to her sister on the same march, in a duet in
the key of OF one fiat," Martha iumped into
her lap and played it with me in the same kew
her sister had been playing, without making
any mistake.
She can lie in my lap with her head thrown
back, and looking away from the melodeon,
play the air, while play the bass, and change
her hands several times i'll the tune--that is,
PLAY one measure with the right, and the next
win the lett hand, and not break the time of
the tune. She has played in public three or
four times to large audiences, and seemed
quite indifferent to the people, looking at them
all the time while she PLAYED

Day evening, for the purpose of showing her.
she played about thirteen or fourteen times,

almost every time blowing the bellows herself
sitting in chair or standing. She ended the
concert by playing Good Night" while the
Others sung. She seems very bright in other
thlngs-has great powers OF imitation, and
good memory. Ii we wish her to play a tune
we have only to tell her the name.

This bodv assembled yesterday, with some
,rh.t ,nexpected numbers, but with no very
ASTONISHING auguries of success. The brief de-
hate which was excited by motion to proceed
10 ballot, though very even-temDered and de-
corous, evinced some very marked differences
siri the elements which compose the conven-
ton On one side, is that high respectability
which cannot bear the shock of sudden move
ments, and which INDUCED the dignifiedexpec-
tation of nominating some worthy representa-
tive of their cloth. On the other side is
mixed mass of delegates, wing, know-noth-
ing, democratic, made up in every variety OF
grotesquc and absurd combination, who are
shouting for the hero of San Jacinto, as if they
had dream of electing him. Between these
two extremes are another class not very easily
Defined but chiefly composed Of pirates in
politics, without any of that dignity winch es-
teens appearances, and respects truth, on the
one hand, or any of that hearty enthusiasm
which sometimes commends bad causes to ap'
proyal, on the other.
The vote for a candidate for the presidency
will be taken today and whatever the result,
none of them will be guilty of the absurdity Of
boiling, however absurd it may be for Mr.
Washington Hunt, Mr.. John j. Critieuden,
Mr.. Edward Everett, and Mr.. John Bell to
occupy seats upon platform taom which the
excited partisans of Sam. Houston are shouting
his noisy eulogies.
The process of ignoring the issues was fore
Swallowed, yesterday, when one of the dele
gates innocently attempted to state grounds
of difference between the two leading parties
until distinct and audible sbillation warnet
him from the forbidden ground. The utmos
blessing of which these far-seeing and saga
cious statesmen have any comprehension, is
an oblivion of present issues, and they imag
inc that if they thrust their heads in the
sand these commanding issues will not ma
ture just as swiftly to their results. In an
hour when a gang of robbers threatens to
wrest the constitution from its purpose, and to
make it the shield of piracy on the land and OIL
the high seas, these sleepy sentinels close their
eyes utterly to the fact that the constitution
itself is the battle ground of the irrepressbe
conflict
