THE CHARLESTON CONVEN-
TTON.

The latest news from Charleston places the
result no nearer, it would seem, than it was
on the lst, given in our Extra on Thursday.
On the 57th ballot, Douglas had gained but
one vote, and then lacked so large a number
to elect him, that to get it under the two-third
rule was impossible. 1t was the adoption Of
this rule which hoored the hopes Of Douglas.
II his friends are SO firm as to refuse to com
promise upon some other man, we trust that
his opponents will be equally steady of pur.
pose. However, We of the South have but
little interest now in the proceedings OF the
old Convention, although it is probable that
il some man srund on the slavery question
was nominated by it, that he would be accep-
ted by the Southern States. Appearances,
however, seem to indicate that there will be
no nomination made at Charleston by the old
Convention, and it is very probable that the
Southern Constitutional Convention will not
nominate previous to the action Of the former.

IHE SPRING SEAsoS-WEATHER, &c
The weather in The country is beautiful at
present. Our nights are a little cool. but our
mornings gush into life with a radiant and
bslmy sum-, which growing in warmth as the
day advances, renders the temperature, during
the greater part Of the day, Of that nature
which could not be improved upon had man
the power of altering it, so genial and delight
ful it becomes. A fine shower on Monday
evening last, came just at the proper moment
for the interest Of our planters, whose crops
We learn begin to assume a very promising
look generally. Spring in the country is a
delightful season, to those who love to listen
to the joyous notes of our forest birds-who
love the shade and silence of the placid bayou
and pole in hand, delight to draw the perch
and trout from its liquid bosom. 1t is the
time OF year for joyous feelings and the loves
OF all animated creation; and happy is he,
who, unembarrassed by the cares Of business
and the struggles of life, can find at such a
time, a mind free from the prejudices, the
chickering's, and the animosities consequent to
mans aspirations and vocations, and with a
contented heart, a soul unalloyed and unfet,
tered by selfish and vain longings, can enjoy
such q season with all that zest and thankful
ness, and delight, which our Creator certainly
intended that man should. The Spring season
is the brightest jewel in the coronet Of our
Southern cline.

planted another hit upon his mouth, and

ROUND 1.-THE superiority of Hec-

pressions of admiration at his fine style
of fighting were heard all around the
ring. and cncomiums Of the loudcst kind
were delivered on his courage; encomi-
ums which we take pleasure in saying
were ~substantially earned and deserved.
In this round Heenan went at Savers III
the business style of the two last, and
delivered in succession two telling hits
in the neck and mouth, Savers counter
ing neatly on the latter by a blow on
the right cheek. Heenan then caught
him on the head, at which Savers rush
ed in. clenChcd, and after a mOmentary
struggle, both fell together on Saycr's
side of the ring, Savers having rather
the best of the fall. Great cheers went
up from his corner at this ripple in his
favor, but they, like Savers, found that
they had a tougher customer To deal
with than they had bargained for.
ROUND l5.-lIcenan was again upfirst
at the scratch. as he had been every
time for the last eight or ten rounds,
while Sayers. who exhibited much dis
tress. was rising from his seconds knee
reluctantly and slowly. This time Hee-
