DEATH OF Mrs Tow. B. MAHLovE.-
The painful intelligence of the Sh
OF Mrs. Flora Belle Manlove reached
us yesterday. She died in Marlin, Tex
as, on the 9th ult, at the residen- e of
relative. Mrs. Manlove was reared
in our midst, and is intimately known
to all our old citizens. The angel of
death could not have selected for his
victim brighter ornament of society.
Graced with irresistible accomplish
ments, and of singularly pure heart
ed nature, it was her mission to shower
sunshine and gladness On all who knew
her. Her heart-stricken husband and
family have the profound sympathy of
all their friends, but they have higher
and better consolation than this. They
have the knowledge that there is a
brighter and better world promised to
the truthful and good, and that though
the body yields to deaths alLpowerful
summons, the bright image of eternity
remains.--Vicksburg Times, It'll.

The Mississippi delegates to the
New York Convention are thus refer
red to by the Herald of the 3rd:
Mississippi is represented by a full
delegation, of which the Everett
Hosue is the present headq' rters.
The different members appear 70 have
no unity of purpose in the contest and
no end to gain other than to support
the Democratic party in nominating a
President who will give their section
justice, relieve them of the incubus cf
military government, and give peace
to the country. The choice of the
delegation would no doubt be the
nominee most favorable to them during
the war; but though fierce as wolves
in the fighting era, they recognize the
wisdom of being gentle as sucking
doves under the new dispensation, and
will in consequence give their hearty
approval to whatever course may be
decided upon by the Democratic par
ty and their votes to whoever it may
put forward. The members of the
delegation are improving the occasion
of their visit to the metropolis by at
tending the various places of amuse-
ment and making themselves acquaint-
ed with the institutions of the city.

For the Clarion.
Where are we Drifting?

The times indicate that we are fast drift
ing to an absolute military despotsm The
instances which we have had in the past few
days, are fraught with incalculable danger
to the we'll being, and liberties of so
called" free people
Allusion is made to the removal of our
Governor, Attorney General, and lastly, of
the State Librarian. The two former cases
have been fully and severely commented up
on throughout the country and need no
present notice.
But notwithstanding the outrage in the
instance of the Governor and Attorney Gen
eral yet when it became known that til
former officer of the peoples c. dice had lost
his official head by arbitrary power, and a
military man "of the line" was sent to fill
his honOred seat, instead of an imported OF
renegade citizen, great was the peoples re-
lief; for drowning men are said even to
catch at straws.
And when such instances occur as the re-
moval of the Librarian, by the incoming
Governor, we are forced to the conclusion
that we are at best, between "Scylla and
Charybdes."
The latter case, that of Keeper of the Cap
itOl, is of more recent occurrence and well
calculated to provoke an outbuI t of in1ig-
nation did not the Dry Tortugas loom up
in the heated negotiations of an already
SOrely dn1lecUeu people 10 support III.
A Provisional Governor is placed over lis
to execute the laws, and to see that they are
executed; and in the first turn of the Cub
ernatorial guillotine, he decapitates the Lii
brarian, without the assignment OF reason.
While the power is delegated to the Gov
ernOr by the statutes of the State only ''to
remove the Keeper for gross neglect or vic.
lation of his duties as Keeper of the Capitol
or as State Librarion," a common sense of
justice would suggest an avowal of the rea-
sons for such removal, that the world might
know the act was done, in fhis instance, by
a true soldier, in the concientious, yet stern
discharge of a soldiers duty, and not sus-
pect, perhaps, that it was done by the
promptings of spiteful and unworthy men.
The next anticipated Especial order is
the unhousing of the womenand children
of the rightful Governors household, to
brave this pitiless storm of oppression.
1t would seem that the stern decree OF
"Down, down to He'll and say / sen5 thee
there" goes forth from each official mouth,
and Satan triumphantly applauds the vic
tor, while yet he signs in pity for the victim.
We, the people, must, for time, endure
this military-political rule and look alone
for our deliverance at the hands of the great
and growing conservative element of the
whole country, or finally to Him who never
turns an unwilling ear to wailing and dis
tress. JUSTICE.

A SAD SCENE.-We witnessed a sad
and impressive scene in one Of the
Main street cars, yesterday. A young
mother came down from Cincinnati,
Sunday, on visit to her husband, who
is engaged in business in this CITY,
She brought with her an infant, their
first born. While here, it took sick,
though it was thought, by its parents,
to be nothing serious. Yesterday, the
father and mother, with their little one,
got into Main street car, ia the up
per portion of the city, to come down
to the mail boat, and return to Cincin-
natl, where she was living with her
relations. Coming along in the car,
the poor disconsolate mother discov-
cred her little one dying in her arms.
All the passengers n the car wei e
moved to tears. The feelings of the
father and mother can better be i'm
agined than described. When they
left the car at Third street. the little
one was breathing it's life out sweetlv
in its mothers arms, as she wendell
her way toward the mail boat, by the
side Of her weeping husband.--Louls-
vile Democrat.

Applause.
The Chair appointed Bigler of Penn
sylvania, and Hammond of South Car
DINA, as Committee TO conduct the
permanent President to the chair. Elk
Governor Seymour proceeded to
the platform amid cheering long
continued. He returned thanks, coun-
selling moderation, liberation, and
harmony and said the most impor-
tant question forced upon the consider
alton of this Convention was some
of those forced upon it by the res
olution of the late Chicago Conven-
ton. Discussed briefly the Rcpubli-
can platform accused that party of
violating its own declaration against
reputation and unequal taxation and
then asserted solicitude for Soldiers
and Sailors widows and orphans.
Accused the now dominant party of
extravagant wasting of public mon
les; tainting the national credit; expe-
diting emigration by overburdening
labor with taxation, and breaking
down all Constitutional guarantees of
Republican liberty. He denied the
assertion of the Republican Conven-
ton that the principles of the Decla-
ration of Independence are now sac
red on every inch of the American
soil, for in ten States of the Union,
military power surpresses civil law.
