courging children when they do we'll. Be.

furious influence upon the disposition of
both the parent and child There are two
great motives influencing human action
hope and fear. Both of these are at times
necessary. But who would not prefer to
have her child influenced to good conduct
by a desire of pleasing rather than by the
fear Of offending? If mother never ex-
presses her qualification when hes children
do well, and is always censuring them
when she sees anything amiss, they are
discouraged and unhappy; their dispose
sitions become hardened and soured by
this ceaseess iretting; and, at last, finding
that whether they do well or i'll, they are
equally found fault with, they relnquish
all efforts to please, and become needless
of reproach.

from an accident, but in one instance, and
that was q French cat, which fell down

deep jumps? why does she not get con-

would, ifhe performed similar acrobatio
feat? five take down one of our dry cats
heads of the Keepers museum wall, and
break 1t up, we shall see that it has a reg

sides, good way inwards, towards the

deed, a beautiful contrivance, and shows
an admirable internal structure, made in
wonderful conformity with external form
and nocterlal habits.-Dr. auckland.

Immediately admitted as State under the
Constitution recently formed and adopted

II. That, while providing revenue for
the support of the general government by
duties upon imports, sound policy requires
such an adjustment of these imports MS TO
encourage the development of the indus

we commend that policy Of national ex-
changes, which secures to the working
men liberal wages, to agriculture remune-

commercial prosperity and independence.
| l3. That We protest against any sale or

has already passed the House.
IA. That the Republican party is op-
posed 10 any change in our Naturalization

10. That appropriations by Congress

Government ought TO render immediate
and efficient aid In its construction and
that, as preliminary thereto, daily Over

Resolved, That we deeply sympathize
with those men who have been driven,

The Tennessee Opposition state Conven-

C1O0.
DR.. Brownlow in letter from Nashville, pub
lished in the last issue of his Knoxville Wig.
thus alludes to the Opposition Convention recent
ly held in the first named city.
The Constitutional Union Convention for this
State, is over. aud most of the Delegates have loft
for home l have been attending Wing. Ameri-
can, and Opposition State Conventions in Tennes-
see for many years. and feel fully authorized to
say, that never have witnessed the assembling
OF any such meeting as this. Tho spirit which
prevailed, throughout, excelled any thing ever
witnessed. Enthusinsm, harmony, and oneness
Of purpose, marked every step taken in tho Con-
vention, from the preliminary meeting on Tues
day evening, until our close on Wednesday
night.
Another feature moro remarkable. and moro
worthy Of special notice, that of the class @
men who composed the Convention. Tho ablest
and truest men in the State, beside many, from
all parts oi the Sne who have been silent specta-
tors since the old Whig party disbandcd, were
here, giving aid and comfort" in tho CAUSE
Many Of these gentlemen assured us that there
were thousands in our State, who have been silent
for years, now iull of lilo and determined to net
III the coming struggle.
But the great feature of tho Convention was
that ct members Out Of eiyhty.onc counties in
the State. serenity were represented, and from
very many oi the Counties, the delegates were I'M
usually large lho Hull OF the CAPITOL large ns
it is. was crowded to its utmost capacity with
delegates, and The galleries crowded with
ladies aud gentlemen, anxious spectators ON tho
occasion. No othclal influence, no expectation Of
public patronage. prompted these delegates to
come from remote aud distant counties, to engage
in this ground swell of tho people. The very
souls OF the people have been stirred-tho fires Of
Indignation against corrupt and plundcring
Government have been lighted up in all dhec.
tons-and the honest masses, seeing that danger
which threatens tho Union and Constitution. have
resolved upon one more fight rs means OF res
toring our Govcrnmcnt and her institutions to
their wonted security.
With one voice. and with long and loud acclaims
this large, talented, md patriotic Convention
threw ont upon the breeze their Presidential ban
ncr, having inscribed upon its rustling folds, the
honoreJ name Of ,JoHN BELLi At night, by spe-
cn invitation of the Convention, this venerable
Statesman appeared upon the stand-mado n bow
thanked the Convention Tor their expression of
confidence and csteem--and declined under the
circumstances, making speech. The long con-
tnucd and dcafening shouts of the whole assem-
bly,, when tho Ex-senator appeared upon the
stand, was, in all, a compliment that any man
might feel proud Of, nnl glory in contcmpla-
ting.
