eensure Of Capt Pickett that the order was on pub
lie reasons having no regard him personality and that
no dsapproval Of him implied in any degree In
tended.
Bya recent order Of General Harvey Captain Pickett
has been replaced in command at San juan IsAnd and
this IS alluded to in the London Times Of the 9Th
Of June in an article which was rePublished in the Whg
Of the l4.h Of July The writer, who is evidently par
tisau of Gov. Douglas, says of General Harvey: HE
has removed the American officer in command, Who
q seems has English proeivities" and has replaced
him by commander of very different oharaeter-the
same gentleman whom he selected as his instrument
when he first seized upon the Island and who more
over seems to hare been removed from his post By Gs-
neral Scott, at s request Of The British authorities
The latitude which the writer in the Times has allowed
himself in respect Of facts, would necessarily make US
hesitate to believe statement-an nsiHUation rather
so extraordinary For instance be asserts that the joint
occupation was proposed by Gen. Scott and at rst de-
eRs9 BY the British; suppressing the fact that it was
proposed by Capt Hornsby declined by Capt Pickett and
ONLY brought up sgain by Gen Scott under the instrue
tons Of the President He says also that Gen. Harvey
replaced Capt Pickett in command in order to interrupt
the good understanding which existed between the Eng
sh asS American officers whereas the fact is, that the
GOOD understanding began with the intercourse between
the English naval officers and Captain Pickett Hospital
bic visits were exchanged between them and they parted
with every token Of mutual respect The same cordially
exists no between Capt Pickett aud the English Captain
Bazagette and his officers Seeing, therefore, how in
different to the truth this writer shows himself to be- We
should be slow credit assertion so dsparagiug to
Gen. Scott as ths-that &c had removed officer whose
conduct was approved BY the President himself at the
request of the British athorites that is to crafty the
sentiment OF Gov Douglas. But the Tunes possesses
such extensive circulation and influence we trust it may
be deemed worthy Of contradiction by some competent
/ authority.

DISTRESSING SUICIDE OF A YOUNG vIRGINIAN

in Memphis Tennessee last Saturday. The victim was

about the time the guests of the house were taking din
ner report of pistol heard, and nearly hve min
utes afterwards second report proceeding from the
same locality The officers of the house immediately re-
paired TO the room from whence the report came but
time were unable gain admiItauce, the door being
securely locked An entrance however, was effected by
forcing the door, when OF the most horrid sights,

This was his eliminating point One step mere and he

WHICH WAS THE NATIONAL CONVENTION ,

One of the most impudent assumptions have
exhibited is the claim set up 10y the Breckenridge
supporters that the convention which nominated Breckn-
ridge and Lane u national convention. To explode
such pretensons only necessary to refer to the facts
and figures
The convention which nominated Judge Douglas
composed of delegates representing twothrds Of the
electoral Of the whole Union, while the bogus and
unauthorized concern which nominated Breckenridge ard
Lane composed only Of delegates representing los
electoral and many OF those being represented
in violation Of positive instruction. Judge Douglas
nominated in accordance with the usages of IN, Demo-
cratic party while the nomination OF Breckenridge was in
violation Of every principle and usage which the Demo-
cratic party has regarded sacred and nyioate Add
yet this bogus concern, which met without authority,
composed OF the dsunion clement Of the South the lick
sptes aud hirengs OF Buchanan, aud spawned erubs
of the public crib from the North ia held up 10 the Dem
ocracy OF the South the National convention OF the
Democracy when it is known by every familiar with
the facts il a miserable sectional romp convention
without the shadow of nationality or legality
Such miserable attempts to deceive and hoodwink the
