A number of gentlemen were put in nom
ination for candidates for Governor, among
whom were James 7. Brady, Chas. 0'Connor
and John A. Dix, of New York; but as doubts
were expressed in regard to their accepting
the nomination, selection was postponed
and the Committee on Resolutions reported
a series of which the following is brief
synopsis at.s1t s-cI c~.ZLBiT ST.
They declare that the National Democracy
Of New York have no new allegiance to pro-
claim, no new doctrine TO avow but renew
the protest against the absorption of all other
issues in the agitation of the slavery question,
aud repeat the question whether this Union
is 10 be preserved for white men, or destroyed
on account of negroes. ~ h.s rfr'
That we equally oppose and reprobate the
plan of Lincoln for interfering with the rights
Of shareholders in the Territories by act of
Congress, and the plan of Douglas for inter
fering with them by unfriendly territorial
legislation; and that our principles stand de-
Tended by the Supreme Court of the United
States, in the Dred Scott decision, as the doc
trine of the Constitution.
That we indorse and ratify the platform
adopted by rOuSnlngS balumOre Maryland
Institute Convention, and accept II as our
political faith. That we heartily indorse and
approve of the administration of James Bu-
chanan; also the nominations of Breckenridge
aud Lane, as the only regular candidates of
the National Democracy. That we reprobate
and condemn the conduct Of the New York
delegation to Charleston and Baltimore, and
charge upon their factious conduct the dis
ruption and division Of the Democratic party.
| That the pretended nomination of Douglas
and Johnson has no semblance of regularity,
and is not binding upon the Democratic party;
that Mr.. johnson was not nominated at all;
and that Mr.. Douglass nomination was by a
fraction of broken up Conventions; by q
minority of hopelessly Republican States;
and, fnally, that as il is REASONABLY apparent
that Breckenridge and Lane will receive from
| the Southern and Pacific States, between 120
and 100 electoral votes, and that the vote OF
New York State will secure their election,
all who desire the defeat of Lincoln are urged
to vote for Breckenridge and Lane.
The resolutions were drawn up by Gideon

| The Convention then adjourned, to find

A great many titled people and the beneyo-

the movement, and already several city firms
have employed woman book-keepers among
those recommended by the society. Two

STRIKE IN LoMBARDY.-A communication by
the Messenger du MIDI states that the opera
tives in Lombardy are striking for an ad-
vance of wages. The printers began, and
their example was soon followed by the
masons and smiths, who have compelled en-
ployers to accede 10 their demands. Domestic
servants afterward turned out, and demanded
to be paid in francs instead Of Milan line Of
seventy-seven cents each. AT Modena and
and Bologna the market people tried to raise
their prices, and the consequence was that a
number of disorderly boys joined the servants
in an attack on the provision stalls, and the
pavement was soon covered with broken
eggs, fruit and vegetables. At Como there
are nearly 1000 persons usually engaged in
the manufacture, who have struck for higher
wages, and as they have nothing to live on,
the town is obliged to feed them.

STURGEON CONSIDERED Commonplace
CEEReYMAS.-The editor of the New York
Albion, having heard Spurgeon at Geneva. in
Switzerland, gives this opinion of him:
Having read several of the preachers pub
lished discourses, and failed to find in them
any signs of decided originality-any thing,
in short, which might account for his sudden
eminence--I expected, not unnaturally, to
experience something of the undefnable
magnetism which holds listening crowd, or
at any rate, 70 notice in his manner or matter
a piquancy, an eccentricity, or even an occa-
5ional touch of vulgarity, that might make
him unlike his fellows. But the mystery of
his rise and sustained elevation remains to
me mystery still. he has fine sonorous
voice and artioulates every syllable with a
refreshing distinctness; it is plain, too, that
his heart is in his work. viii earnestness
then, and good lungs, suffice for the achieve
ment of popularity One would scarcely
have thought so. And yet otherwise Mr.
Spurgeons sermon seemed TO me, and to
others, exceedingly commonplace. | should
venture to set him down rs a most efficient
and useful minister for congregation of rus
tics; not as one likely to convince the dispu-
tations sceptic or alarm the lettered sons Of
ease. His fame, therefore, in myeyes, is only
another example of the caprice of metropol-
itan taste. -rt.... r-....-. ...r.f ..-.

An English Romeo and Juliet-sInsuIar
ic Attempt at Murder and Suicide.


AT the Winchester assizes England, recent
ly, r. Simpson, a private IN the rife brigade,
was charged with an attempt to murder Sophia
Rowe at Winchester. Simpson and Rowe
became attached to each other, and had spent
two whole days together. One morning be-
fore they got up, the prisoner said he was
tired of being soldier, and should cut his
throat, and he requested Rowe to borrow a
razor for him. She told him she would not
borrow one. He then became verv unhappy,
and the girl gave. him Is. Sd. to purchase a
razor with They got up and in the course
Of the day the prisoner bought razor and
he gave it to Rowe, who locked it up in her
box. .. a.1u". '.f
When they went to bed at night, the pris-
oner asked Rowe TO put the razor under the
head of the bed; she did so and in the morn
ing, he said he was determined to cut his
throat; she endeavored TO dissuade him, but
he said he would do il. Rowe said if he cut
his own throat, he should cut hers first. He
said he had not power TO do il. Rowe said
If he would not cut hers, he should not cut
his. The prisoner then asked her to lay her
arm down for him TO put his head on. She
laid her arm down, and he placed his head
upon il. He then cut her throat, and after
ward he cut his own. II would seem that
some noise was made, and Mrs. Whatlen, the
landlady, went into the room and saw them
both lying on their backs with their throats
cut Rowe said, "Good bye" and the pris.
oner said, "This is love-" Rowe then said
81 shall die happy" A surgeon, however
was promptly in attendance, and saved the
lives of both parties. The jury found the
prisoner guilty, and judgment of death wa
recorded.

BETTING ON BILLIARDS FORBIDDEN IN PARIS.
The reason why the decree of the Project of
Police, forbidding the ''Poule de Sebastopol, =
is, that it led to risking money among the
players on chance rather than on address.
In addition the Prefect has ordered that no
public billiard-table can be permitted to be
opened without authorization aud those now
existing must be duly registered each year.
No betting whatever isto be allowed, onpain
of having the authorization withdrawn. The
rules of the game must be hung up in every
establishment, and if any thing but fair play
takes place, the master is liable to lose his
license .4t r-

AN ERoNAur FALLS UNINJuRED Two MlLEa

AN ERoNAUT FALLS UNINJURED Two MILES
IN PARACHUTE TE.-Professor Steiner, the
eronaut has been astonishing the people of
st. Lawrence County, New York, by his feats.
He made an ascension last week in company
with another, and when at the hight of TWO
miles, Steiner took parachute and descended
to the earth. The spectators were thrilled at
the sight, and stood breathless as the daring
eronaut was descending. He landed safely,
however This has long been q fayorite feat
with the English and French eronauts. A
parachute is made chiefly of silk or canvas,
in the form of an umbrella, so as to gather in
the air in its descent, and therefore fall
steadily with its weight suspended under
meath. 1t contains no gas, and the @ronaut
has no control over it except that his weight
keeps it steady and right side up in its de-
scent .s.. r.'.
