A NEGRO SERVANT MIsTAKEN FOR AN AMER
IcAN CoNsUL.-An American Consul residing
some time since at port on the Mediter-
ranean was induced to hire servant, who
was sleek African, and as black as the ace
of spades. The Consul at the time he en-
gagged the African discovered that his ward
robe was in rather dilapidated condition,
and he took the African TO "slop shop,
dressed him in suit of blue with gilt but
tons, bought him black hat and had plated
gold band put around it.
In day or two afterward the Consul took
a drive in the country to q suburban village
the African sitting by his side a Anglais
Shortly after their arrival the Consul, who
was sitting in the parlor of the hotel, was at
tracted by a confusion in the street, and on
looking to the window to see what was going
on, lol and behold the African was walking
up and down before the hotel door with 8
procession of boys, who every now and ther
would scream out, "Look at the American
Consul, Console Americano) Here he goes
there he goes; look at himf' The African
enjoyed the joke amazingly, and puffed away
his segar like Turk of the Seventeenth Cen
tury. The people absolutely believed that
the negro was the Consul and the Consul the
servant. It.H

ST.. LOUIS, April 1.-THE proceedings OF
the Democratic State Convention, at Jeffer-
son City, yesterday, were not very harmoni-
Gus and little progress was made. rf
The Committee on Resolutions agreed npOn
a platform, which will be presented this
morning, indorsing the main features Of the
Buchanan administration; affirming. that
neither Congress nor Territorial Legisla
ture have the power TO abolish or prohibit
the introduction Of slavery into the Terri
tories; repudiating the Douglas doctrine 1a-
voring the fugitive slave law; charging the
invasion of Virginia as the legitimate result
| of the-teachings of the Republican party; re-
pudiating the stereotyped charge Of disunion
sentiments so often repeated for party effect
against the Democratic party; denouncing
the doctrine of irrepressible conflict.
On State politics the platform dodges the

TOUCHING INSTANCE OF CANINE AFFECTION.
Many months since, says the Louisville (Ky.)
Courier, James johnson, German grocer,
was detected in buying stolen goods from a
slave knowing the same to be stolen. This
constituted felony, and he was committed
to Jail to answer. During his incarceration,
master when all others had forsaken him,
visited him every day. About noon the
faithful brute would appear at the prison,
and waiting chance when the ponderous
iron door was flung open, he would rush in
and lick his masters hand through the iron
grating. Last October johnson obtained
bail and fed. Since that time the dog has
gone to the Jail nearly every day in search OF
the master he will probably never see again
Yesterday he obtained access to the prison
and failing to meet the one he sought, the
poor brute retraced his steps slowly and in q
melancholy mood.

PITTsBURo, April 1.-THE heavy rains for
the past few days have caused freshet, at
tended by the destruction of considerable
property. The low lands along the Monon-
gshela and Allegheny Rivers are completely
Inundated. The rise came so suddenly that
several coal-boats in the Monongahela were
swept over the dam and sunk.
The number lost was thirteen; the loss
being over $4,000. The loss in the Allie
ghany has been considerable; several manu-
factories have been flooded, and families in
some instances were driven from their dwell
lings. The railroads have also suffered from
land slides, which have impeded travel. AL
together it has been one of the most destruc-
tive freshets experienced for many years.
The rivers have mostly now attained their
highest stage, rising about an inch per hour
The Monongahela pier mark indicates twen-
ty-nine feet and four inches; only twenty
inches less than the great freshet of 1852.
