The Douglas democrats Numbered their con-
vention work, at Springfield, in such way as
| to deal very injuriously by Judge Merrick, and
"insut," $50 the Times says,) Hon. Stephen
C. Bemis The unhandsome dealing by those
gentlemen was plain enough. The Worcester
Times offers the following very curious apology
for it:-"rhis irregularity we are willing to
attribute partly to want of experience, the
men who have pulled the wires for many years
being unexpectedly detained in Boston, so
that the usual "cuttng and drying" of which
the public has heard so much in past years.
had been entirely overlooked"
The Kennebec Journal, speaking of the re-
cent election in Maine, says, the republican
majority will be from II 900 to 10000, and
makes the following statements: "The fig

Blackstone, was destroyed by fire on the eve
ming of the 9th inst. Tie loss is sS000 and
there was no insurance. The mill had been

FALL FROM FLAG STAFF.-One day last
week in elvating the extension to flag staff
in Templeton, while a young man named
David Haskins, was some IS feet from the
ground on the pole, for the purpose of adjus-
ting it, the hook ofone ofthe tackle blocks gave
way, letting the upper part of the staff down to
the ground with great force; but strange to
say without injury to young Haskins, or any
one else

CITY AND COUNTY.

HE MUSICAL CoNvENTIoN.-The crown
ing work of the Institute was the concert, last
evening. To say it was success would be
praise; but we think we should be nearer the
truth if we called it a triumph. From its be-
ginning to its close, two hours, the interest
never tagged, but its marked popularity was
the manner in which the opera choruses were
given. While, ordinarily, the pulse of an aud
fence rarely beats responsive TO the measured
movement of great company of singers, last
night witnessed striking exception. No
pieces were so universally applauded. 60
hail, We Free" Hail to thee, Liberty
Crowned with the tempest" as well as 9TH
ers, will be long remembered by those who
heard hem.
VEGA think of no testimony to the skill of
the director, so grateful and so unmistakable,
as this fact furnishes. In saying what we have
we would do no injustice TO those who, in
song, duet, and trio, performed SO acceptably
their parts. The spirit song" by Miss Whit
ing, robin Ruff" by Messrs. Whiting and
Whitney, the songs of Miss Fiske, Miss Broad.
ers, and Mrs. Walker, were all received with
much favor. The "part song" by the Men
delssohn Club added most pleasantly to the
variety and the deep bass voices of Messrs
Whitney and Rider were able to do full Justice
to their parts. The orchestral and piano ac-
compartments were by workmen OF which our
city need not be ashamed. We suppose there
were about two hundred singers in the choir.
AT the rehearsal, nearly three hundred took a
part We hope those who absented them
selves had good reason for so doing. They
deprived themselves of the honor due their
associates, and set an example which it is to be
hoped will not find many mitators.

The WATER MovEMENT.-The city govern
ment in their proposed visit to Cherry Valley
on Monday, would be glad to be joined by any
of the citizens who have the interest or the
leisure to accompany them. The location of
the streaa and the adjacent ground is such
as to have given the committee on water con-
tidence that it might be made, by a reasonable
outlay, to furnish an abundant supply for all
the ordinary uses of the city. The proposed
visit will undoubtedly lead to some decisive
measures in regard to it.

ed none but expressions of approval and salts

tesy of their hosts and to their capable and
excellent management of the institution.

face striking upon a pitchfork, one prong of
which entered the right cheek, passed through
the cheek bone behind the eye, through the
brain, and came out on the top of the head,
projecting two inches About eight inches
of the fork were in his head, which fellow
laborer with much difficulty drew out.
Strange to say, the man is likely to recover.

THERE'S H LOST.

nothing lost. The tiniest flower.
That grows within the darkest vale,
Though lost to view has still the power
The rarest perfume to exbaIe;
Tha. perfume borne on ~zephyrs' wings,
May visit some lone sick ones bed,
And ike the balm affection brings,
Twill scatter gladness round her head.
There's nothing lost. The drop of dew
That trembles in the rose buds breast,
Will seek its home of ether blue;
Ard fall again as pure and blest,
Perchance to revel in the spray,
Or moisten the dry, 2arching sod,
Or mingle in the mountain spray,
Or sparkle in the bow of God,
There's nothing lost. The seed that's cast
By careless hands upon the ground,
Will yet take root, and may at last
A green and glorious tree be found;
Beneath it's shade. some pilgrim may
Seek shelter from the heat of noon,
While in its Dough the hreezes play.
And song birds sing their sweetest tune.
There's nothing lost, The slightest tone
Or whisper from a loved ones voice,
May melt a heart of hardest stone,
And make a saddened heart rejoice;
And then again, the careless word
Our thoughtless lips too often speak,
May touch a heart already stirred,
And cause that troubled heart to break,
There's nothing lost. The faintest strain
Oft breaking from some dear ones Lutte,
In memory's dream may come again,
Though every mournful string be mute;
The music of some happier hour,
The harp that swells with loves own word
May thrill the soul with deepest power,
When still the hand that swept it's chords.

THE ATALANTIC MONTHLY.
BEGINNING OF THE FIFTH VOLUME

In assuming the control of the Atlantic Month
ly, its new proprietors deem it scarcely needfut
to spend many words in assurances or promises.
The congratulations and good wishes they have
received from all parts of the country seem to jus
tify them in the confidence that their own char
acter AS publishers will be accepted by the numer-
Gus readers and friends of the Magazine as q war
rant that they will do everything in their power to
increase its interest, to enlarge its circle OF attrac-
ton, and to raise it's standard Of ability in all
departments. ..
They think it proper to say, simply, that no
change will be made in the general character of
the magazines; that all the writer's whose contribu-
tions have established it in the popular favor will
continue 70 make it their medium of communica-
ton with the public; and that the relations Of the
publishers with authors on both sides the Atlantic
will enable them to add materially to the variety,
interest, and value of its pages.
The Atlantic has never been, and will never be,
a sectional journal. Its publishers ncknC Wedge
no parallels Of latitude in the Republic of Letters;
and, while they will judge of any article offered
them, not by the source whence it comes, but by
its own intrinsic worth, they will at the same time
endeavor to maintain it's character as a periodical
ia which earnest thinkers may find expression,
unhampeTed by fear Of that narrow censorship
which what is loudest. but not deepest, in Public
Opinion would fain establish.
TERMS. Three Dollars per annam, or twenty
Eve cents a number. Upon the receipt Of the sub
s~cription price, the publishers will mail the work
to any part Of the United States, prepaid. Sub
scriptions may begin with either the first or any
subsequent number. The postage of the Atlantic
is ~thirty.six cents a year, if prepaid.
The pages of the Atlantic are stereotyped, and
back numbers can be supplied.
CLUBs.-For Ten Dollars the publishers will
send i've copies of the Atlantic for one year,
the subscribers to pay the postage.
Clergymen, Teachers, and Postnasters will re-
ceiye the work for Two Dollars q year.
RookseIlers and NeWsmen will obtain the terms
by the hundred, etc, upon application to the
Publishers.

1t will be seen by the report of proceedings
in Congress, yesterday, that the House came
very near electing a Speaker. After several
days of subterranean preparation, the Demo-
Gratis and Southern Americans suddenly unit
ed on Mr.. Smith of North Carolina, one of the
South American members, and gave him 112
votes, bringing him within three votes of an
election. 1t appears that 116 votes were actu-
ally cast for him, one more than was necessa.
ry to elect, but four of them we're withdrawn
before the result was declared. The four
voters who marched and counter-march-
ed in this way, were Republicans, who
had been drawn in to vote for Mr..
Smith, in order to show how civil and amiable
they could be to a slaveholding member.
Some of them had voted for him on the day
previous and ii is likely that their example
was cunningly used to prepare the way and
decide the course of half score shy and ten
der footed anti-Lecomptonites and northern
Democrats.
OF course, there was intense excitement"
much hurrying to and fro, many hasty con.
situations, no little doubt, surprise, and in
quiry, with the customary Confusion" The
Republicans sought refuge and delay in a
motion to adjourn, which was carried by
six majority and this looked as if
the majority were not willing to have Mr..
Smith for their Speaker. But this sudden
disturbance of the monotony of the ballot,
quickened the blood on all sides, and we shall
not be surprised fit leads to organization
early next week 1t is hardly probable that
there can be another such rally on Mr.. Smith
We must wait and see. A failure to elect their
candidate for Speaker is not the worst thing
that can happen to the Republicans. Better
suffer this defeat than sacrifice their position
and become demralized. But they are not
likely to be defeated. A majority of the
House want a Republican Speaker, or, at any
rate, Speaker elected in opposition to the
Democratic vote The vote to adjourn shows
this feeling, which, we believe, will control the
final result.
