California dates to the Sth of September, arrived
here last night.
GENERAL NEWS.
With the exception of some political movem nts
there has not been incident of any interest abroad
since the departure of the last express.
The Douglas State Convention held its session at

Price nominated for electors
The resolutions which were adopted by the Con-
vention censure the California delegates for seced-
ing from the Charleston Convention, and repudiate
the Intervention doctrines of the Republicans of
the North and the dsunonists of the South: insist
upon our rights to San Juan Island, and demand
their speedy enforcement; favor the overland mails
and telegraphs, and the Pacific railroad, and urge
the aid OF Congress to their support.
All the necessary steps will be taken TO conduct
the canvass vigorously.
The Bell and Everett party held their convention
on the same days. There were 2l7 delegates present.
representing 26 counties-cOnsiderably more than
half the State. The proceedings were very har-
mOnious, though the organization has not yet man
ifested much strength. If subsequent advces from
the east favorable to its fusion with the Doug

WHAT IS THEATRICAL EXHIBITION ?-rhe courts
of Boston have decided this question. The Dray-
tons were stopped in their "parlOr opera" exhibi-
before the court, and the court decided that wheth
er performance is theatrical, does not depend
upon the place where it is held the number of the
parts, or change of scene. There are dramatic
exhibitions where not more than one person per-
forms. An entertainment produced by assuming
different characters acting their parts, thereby il
lustrating some story and enforcing some moral
come within the meaning of a theatrical exhibition
prohibited by the statute.

no injury from the pouring and persistent rain o
yesterday morning between one and three o'clock,
so far as heard from. Boats, however, were not
coming in rapidly to the the Georgetown Col

rather uutayorabe. Still it is to be hoped that
the exceedingly heavy rain did not extend far up
the line, and thus that serious, ifany, mischief

The Paris correspondent of the New Ork

Perhaps some of your readers who visited
Paris two or three years ago, and who had an

remember boisiery establishment on the cor
ner of the rue Drouo: and the Boulevard
This shop was closed some time ego, and the

a gentleman between thirty and forty years
of age, (Which, In France. is considered the
marriageable age) tail and handsome, well
dressed. refined in appearance, but bearing a
provincial look, entered the hOsier's 6OHtiqEe.
to make a small purchase. While waiting to
be served, he noticed at the further end of
the shop, a rosy checked and graceful young
girl, partially concealed from view by high
desk. Upon interrOgating the clerk. he was
informed that the yOung girl in question was
the shopkeeper's daughter, who has just re-
turned from one OF the best seminaries in
France, where she had received an excellent
education. The clerk whose loquacity is un-
bounded, added that Mademoiselle Juliette
was Just turned of eighteen, and that her
amiability, modesty and good sense rendered
her the idol of all who knew her. The stran
ger asked to speak with the holster and his
wife, on an affair foreign to ordinary business.
He was forthwith introduced into the back
shop.
''Sir and Madam" said he, after taking-a
seat, ''I am the Count de T. l reside, hab-
itually, at Bordeaux. 1 have fortune of

tates. wish to maryland do not care a

months in Paris, and three months at the wa
tering places. l have the honor to ask the

This extraordinary speech threw the hosier
aud his wife into state of stupefactiCn I'M
possible to describe. Without at all MOTTO
ing the effect be had produced, the stranger
coolly replied:
AS regards this offer, L have only one
condition to impose. You will give up trade
Sell your establishment and leave the rest to
me-"
The Counts proposal was accepted, and the
hosier's daughter became countess. The
shop was sold-and at this moment, the show
window formerly filed with piles of shirts and
stockings, and striped cravats, IS occupied by
long rows of bottles, whose contents may be
healthful to the stomach, but are far from
agreeable to the nostrils.

Night 4ir-Many people are afraid of
night air. Here is what Florence Nightiu

dread of night air. What air can We breathe
at night but night air? The choice is be-
tween pure night air from within Aost peo-
pIe prefer the latter-an unaccOUntable pref
erence. What will they sag if it is proved to
be true that fully one-half of all the diseases
we suffer from are occasionei by persons
sleeping with their windows shut? An open
window most nights in the year can never
hurt any one. In great cities night air is
often the best and purest air to be found 10
the wenty-four hours. l could better under
stand shutting the windows in towns during
the day, than during the night, for the sake
of the sick. The absence of smoke. the quiet
all tend to make night the best time for air
ing the patient. \ high medical authority
has told me that the air in London Is never
SO good as after ten O'Clock at night"
