 -Richard Taylor, son of President Fay Tor, is one of the delegates to the Charles ton Convention from Louisiana. letter writer says that he is wealthy, looks much like his father, and is opposed to Douglas
 fHE WHEAr CRoP.-The reports of the condition of the growing wheat from nearly all parts of the country are favorable. In no quarters have we noticed other than fattering accounts thus far, unless we except the late sown wheat in part of Kentucky.
 IMPORTANT TO NEWSPAPER PuBLIsHERs.- Both Houses of Congress have agreed to the bill authorizing publishers to state in the ad- dress the date when subscription, will expire; and also providing that the carriers in the cities and towns shall charge but one cent on delivery of drop letters.
 MASSACHUSETTS PENAL CoLoNY.-A bill has been introduced in the Legislature of Louisiana for the transportation of all negroes convicted of capital crimes to the State of Massachusetts. The bill passed its first read ing, and was referred to the Committee on Federal Relations.

A SpEcK OF WAR.-The last news from Mexico is warhke. Miramon, in revenge for the capture of the steamers by our Gulf squadron, has sent to the City of Mexico a decree confiscating the property of American citizens and order ing them to leave the country. This will very probably be regarded by our Govern men, us sufficient cause for commencing immediate hosiilities Congress beng in session. the subject of Mexican affairs will be taken up at once, and we may witness within sixty days the inauguration of another Mexican war. Meanwhile we are informed that the Knights of the Golden Circle are making preparations to invade Mexico, aud that our Govern ment will not interfere to prevent it.

THE VAN WycK AND HrxDMAN Ar FAIR. - A Washington correspondent writing under date of the 3lst uIt., gives the following version of this affair:
 There was almost a street collision this forenoon, about ten o'clock, between two Congressmen, Mir. Van Wyck, of New York, and MT. Hindman, of Arkansas in front of the National Hotel There are various interpretations of the affair ahoat, but the following 1 obtained from an eye witness: MT. Van Wyck was standing upon the front steps of the hotel with MT. Stuart. of New York, and MT. Lovejoy. of Illinois. MT. Hndman alighted from carriage and was passing near the three gentlemen named above to enter the hotel. when MT. Van Wycl, saluted him with bow and the words, " How are you, MT. Hindman." The later resented the salutation with move- ment of the hand towards MT. Van Wyck which Mir. Stuart interpreted as an in. tended blow, but MT. Hindman did not reach Mr. Van Wyck. MT. Stuart step ped between them and mildly remon- strated with MT. Hindman, and he desist- ed, remarking to MT. Stuart that MT. Van Wyck had made speech in the House of Representatives insulting to every South ern gentleman, and he MT. Hindman) could not permit Mir Van Wyck to speak to him MT. Van Wyck, not having been struck, made no resistance to MT. Hind- man. Alter some liule conversation among the friends of the parties, growing out of the affair, they separated. Out of these facts have grown all sorts of rumors of d desperate collision, the exchange of blows and exhibition of deadly weapons. nothing of which happened.
 The difficulty which occurred between two Senators did not take place in exe- cutive session, as was stated in New York paper, but at a private caucus.

B1 The fact that the Spanish au. thoriles at Havana have been conniving at the fitting of an armed invasion agains the Liberal Government of Mexico and probably furnished the means of the expedition, excites much feeling at Wash ington. and will. doubtless, lead 10 expla- nations between the two governments of Spain and our country. When it is re- nembered that but for our rigid neutrality laws, Cuba would have years since fallen . prey to fillibusterism, and probably have been now one of the United States, the action of Spain in harboring the enemies of . neighboring State, and permitting them to fit out cruisers in her ports, gives rise seriously to the inquiry whether it would be as we'll 10 repeal the neutrality act. We can hardly afford to play police officer to protect parties who themselves commit breach Of peace.

sG We learn from Washington that the Harper's Ferry investigating commit. tee have not been in session for some time. They are waiting for witnesses. Their officers are on the track of RED- PATH and SANpoRN, and they hope in a few days to be able to secure them. HYATT does not manifest any disposition yet to answer the questions propounded to him. The committee are determined to keep him in jail until the adjournmen, of Congress, unless he yields to their de- mands.
