A FRIENDLY VISIT TO Gov. HIcKs.-We
learn from the Harrisburg correspondent
of the Philadelphia Bulletin, that some
time last week, commission, consisting
of three gentlemen, of whom McMichael,
ESQ.,, was one, was sent by Gov. Curtin to
Gov Hicks, bearing a letter expressive Of
the good feelings of Pennsylvania towards
himself personally, and the high regard
in which his State is held by the Execu-
tive and people of Pennsylvania. 1t is
stated that Gov. Hicks was profoundly
grati6ed at the nature and character of the
mission. The secession question was fully
discussed, Gov. Hicks expressing the
opinion that if time can be gained for the
public mind in the border States to reflect
upon the madness of separation, the seces-
sion spirit will be completely and over
whelmingly arrested. He is perfectly
confident of his own power to maintain
his present position. This mission, which
was simply one of peace and good will,
and not designed 10 act or treat on any
subject is said to have been suggested to
Gov. Curtin by Mr.. Lincoln.-Boston
Journal.

tinue to be received in Lynn, from promi-
nent merchants of Charleston S. G., and
Augusta, Ga, for goods, upon the old
terms-six months credit Last week
a prominent dealer received orders for
shoes from a Charleston firm, who, like
his brother merchants in Georgia, said
not word about secession, the dissolution
Of the Union, and civil war; but coolly
ordered his goods as was his wont before
the outbreak. Under the existing state of
affairs, hevery naturally received an an
swer to the effect that if the cash, or it's
equivalent in responsible draft was sent
the goods would be shipped and not with
out.-BoSton Journal.
