Abe Cincinnati Commercial on the
convention.
The Cincinnati Commercial which is
understood to be opposed to any immediate
declaration by the Union party on the sub.
ject of negro suffrage, has the following in
reference to the convention
The sessions Of the Committe on Reso-
lutions were not especially harmonious.
The debate that Was restrained in
The Convention broke out in the COM
mitiee-room, and there was q free and
emphatic exchange of views. The army
delegates were quite p~eremptorT, and
it is even complained they ware a little
rough, In obeying the instructions to insist
upon u~nequivccslly backing up Andrew
johnson. The representatives Of the
TTosaa-n Rovo~so hoE ----i-ls----Aa
thew were prepared TO stand and die for,
~pronouncing the times exigent and pro-
pilious, for the taking of an H~advsnced
stsp"-and the advanced step meant negro
suffrage North and South, and especially
the latter, and that right away. For a
time, il seemed that if'the advanced step
could not be- got into the platform the
committee would disagree, and two reports
would be presented 70 the Convention, and
the cry would be hsvoa an0 the dogs of war
would be LET slip. Fortunately, everybody
was prepared TO indorse the Declaration of
Independence, and the unity of the party
was maintained.
We must remark, however, that there
was no lack of the deepest antislavery
feeling in the convention, and that few
we're found who did not freely admit the
unressonsbleness of the prejadice against
She negro, and express a strong desire that
It should te eradicsted.
The sober masses of the people may
move slowly. Its not unknown that crest
bodies generally do. But they will move
surely, and thereby make haste.

Details OF the Arrest OF the Rebel Sec.
Rotary of the Navy.

Mallory, the rebel Secretsryof the Navy,
was arrested, notwithstanding all state.
ments to the contrary. Ho was arrested at
Lagrange, Louisiana, on the night of the
10th of May, in - house which he had
Just rented, which in size and strength, his
wife says seemed like 8 castle. His wife,
IN q letter from this "castle," whose rooms
were bare and empty, with no furniture
save a few borrowed pieces, and its repul-
siveness only softeued by tho flowers and
trees that surrounded it, writes thus:
"Night before last, at half past twelve
o'clock, We were aroused from sleep by q
heavy knock at the door; and q threat of
breaking it open followed before any one
had time to answer. When a light was
procured the servant opened the door, and
some twenty armed men entered to arrest
my husband; at the same time another
party went to Senator Hills house, at
which Mr.. Mallory was staying, and there
arrested him. Mr.. Mallory was hurried
off like a mslefactor, without being given
time enough TO put on proper clothing.
They would not listen to the entreaties Of
his wife and children to let him remain
with them only until daylight. 1 sent
Buddie to Atlanta as soon as it was day.

ing their places before the sermon is over.
He ssys: "In Episcopal churches particu-
lsrly, where, Of the morning service no
hymn is sung after the sermon, it is al
most the rule for the members of the choir
to sneak out, one after another, as soon IS
the text is given out. The soprano will
first gather Up her skirts, perhaps bend her
head a little so as TO avoid the notice of
the congregation, and steps gingerly out Of
the organ loft not ~unfrequently, however,
sweeping down q few books, OF upsetting a
chair, spite of all her care. The basso,
having no skirts to impede his pro
gress, darts out q few minutes
after, and makes no noise till he gets
on the stairs, where, unless he takes the
precsution TO slide down on the banisters,
his heavy boots are heard tramping down
like the rumble of distant thunder. The
alto and tenor follow, unless, indeed, they
prefer to remain and have q quiet little
Irritation together during sermon time.
The oTganist having to play the Conclu-
ding voluntary, grOsus in~Wardly, because
he is thus debarred the privilege of fight,
but consoles himself and supports the tedi
IN of "preached word" by stealing out
to q neighboring bar-room-there are plen-
ty Of these accessible on Sundays by back
doors known to the initiated-where he
can snatch a sherry cobbler or a glass of
lager bier, and DO back in timo to playahe
congregation out.

ATLANTIC T-eIegrapn.

It is expected that the Great Eastern.
with It's invaluable freight and precious
hopss, will begin its voyage in the early
part Of July-s time chosen purposely later
then that Of the frat expedition in 1858.
Csptsin Anderson, who is to command the
Great Eastern, is al old officer in the Gun
ard service, and it is in accordance with his
msture opinion that the time of sailing is
selected. The voysge is to be q slow one
the speed of the ship being limited, except
in certain contingencies, 10 six knots an
hour, and it is calculated that the whole
time consumed in the passage ftom VaIentia
in ireland to She Bay of Hesrts Contt mt n
Newfoundland, viii be from twelve to four
teen days.

has been badly diseased. The right ear,

BUTTER A THERMoAETER.-There is reason
and authority for believing that butter was
used, anciently, as a test of tempsrature, and
itcan be 80 used still, only it is cheaper now
TO buy q Thermometer. DR.. Nincompooper-
os, the learned and venerable German Bib
liczI commentator, in his last volume, sug
gssts the view taken above, while dwelling
upon the prOverbial biblical phrase, "wash
your steps with butter" He remarks that
in the hot countries of the Orient, butter
would very quickly reduce itself to Iique-
faction unless carefully stored away in 3
patent refrigerator; and that the a~ncients
noticing the effect of caloric on butter,
same naturally to use the phrase above
quoted in their casual, salutatOry or passing
observations about the weather. It was
considered q hot day when q man could
wash his feet in butter.
The Doctor, farther along in the chapter
on this subject, goes into . lengthy compar-
ison or contrast of that age with the pres-
emit, aiming to show, by the mere uss of
words, the levity of this day and genera
tion. Thus he observes that, when WeWish
to make emphatic our sense Of Oppressively
warm weather, We say It is "alI-6red hot,"
or-We will not use the other term-Which,
ne thinks, are phrases more expressive
than elegant or piOus. They sound vulgar
and slightly reckless and profaus when
compared with the standing and standard
terms used by the sneient worthless TO iex-
press the same feelings.
In this connection it may be stated that
the weather has been SO warm for s day or
two, that grocers and market-men have
been selling butter not by the pound, but
by the quart.
