THE LAST NIaRr OF THE CELEsRATHD HoL-
MAN TROUPE Another brilliant and fashionable
audience greeted this very talented Troupe last
night, and were enthusiastic In their laudations
of the Holmsn's, especially Miss SAllie, who
sustains the character Of Cinderella splendidly.
The opera Is full of gems and could not posi-
bly, have been better or more pleasingly render
ed, for instance, her solo with variations In the
ball scene a Ia AdtlinG Patti, is most extraor-
dinary exhibition Of the power, compass, fexi-
bility and bird-like clearnesa Of voice, display
ing magnificent musical abilities combined
with careful culture. Little Julia is also fast
following in the steps Of her sister, and If she
continues to improve with years in proportion
to her remarkable precocity at present, must
become an ornament to the American Stage
Her character Of Ike in the last piece was the
most refreshing and natural exposition of the
"mischeivous' We have yet seen, and certainly
delighted everybody present.
Alfred is perfect on the Drum, and is au fat
in all he does. Master Benjamin creates fun,
excites your cachinatory muscles, and makes bis
audience very merry. We observed many
fair cheek dimple with laughter provoked by
his comic but always natural gestures. Tonight
Is the last night Of this gifted Troupe, and they
have two new pieces written expressly for Mlss
sallle, in which she appears in a number of IA
vorite characters. We advise our citizens to 90

The Evangelical Messenger, published al
Cleveland, Ohio, under date OF July co. 1852
has the following reasonable language;
The remedy nov for our political ills, is not
conciliation, but conquest. We cannot conciii-
ate slavery any more than the Devil, but we
must conquer and subjugate both, and conquest
must be followed, not by reconstruction OF the
Union; not by patching Of the Constitution;
not by compromise measures, but by regener-
alton of Southern society, slavery must perish.
Many of the revolutionary fathera-framers
of the Constitution, Madison and Jefferson
among the rest, have lived long enough to see
their errors, and to apprehend with the clear
ness Of prescience the disastrous conflict that
was sure TO arise.

A number Of the counties Of the State we're
not represented at all in this Convention, while
many others were not represented by full dele
cations. Naughton's Hall Was not more than
half full, during the forenoon session. In the
afternoon, when the Convention assembled a.
the east front of the State House, il presented
a lean appearance, being entirely spiritless and
devoid of enthusiasm The largest proportion
Of the delegates are members and officers of the
Legislature, and other office-holders. The few
men who were in the Convention claiming to
have Democratic sntecedents, are either Office
holders or Office seekers-in the so-called Union
organization.
While the Convention was voting on Secre-
tary Of State, shower of rain drove the men,
bers into the Rolunds of the State House; but
they soon adjourned from there to the Senate
Chamber, where they completed their work,
without being at all crowded.
This Convention was q complete failure,
when regarded in point Of numbers, enthusiasm
or determination they were not there,

Bounties to be paid by the Government to

seven millions. OF these, four millions have
been paid. These of course are merely the
