The side-show % the Tammany
Hall Convention in New York is q
"Conservative" Soldiers and Sailors
Convention. Gen. McClsrnand, of Ill,
was temporary chairman, and Gen,
Franklin permanent chairman. In read
ing over the last of the soldiers present,
one looks in vain for the name of any
soldier who was creditably known dur
ing the war. Most of them were never
heard of before. The 'Gen." Campbell
who figured so extensively in the reports
of the Convention, made but sorry
figure in the army. He is the L. D.
Campbell Of Butler County, who was
Colonel for a short time, but resigned
his commission without ever smelling
powder. McClernand, of Ill, is one Of
the political Generals who PLAYED out
eFectually. Franklin, the President of
the Convention, while in sevice devoted
more time to decorating his six feet two
inches Of pulled up humanity than he
did to fighting. Epulettes, shiny but
tons and bran new uniforms were the
objects of his especial solicitude. When
he was in Louisiana, on the Red river
expedition, the rebels captured his head
quarter teams. One wagon was loaded
entirely with starched linen collars.

returned them, stating that they had
boiled them, fried them, and cooked
them in every way, but couldn't make
them digestibIe; they therefore request

load of hsrd-tack! The fighting GEN
erals were not present at the Conven-

A DKMOcRATIo paper in Chicago remarks
chat "the negro has never taken step toward
CIVILIZATION, that was not followed by three
steps toward deeper barbarisn." The truth
of this observation seems to be enforced by
the result of the, election in, Mississippi,
where the negroes very generally voted the
Democratic ticket.

A CRITICAL OAsE.-The Tribune announces
that Chang and Eng, the Siamese twins, have
determined to visit Paris for the purpose Of
submitting to a surgical separation. They
are now fifty-nine yesra old, and it is appre-
hensive that one may become the subject Of
disease which may prove fatal to both.
The progress of this curious experiment.
will be watched with great interest. The
risk attending any effort to separate these
persons would be exceedingly serious-it
might be fatal. The possibility ofperforul-
ing the operation safely was discussed by
surgeons when the twins were first exhibited
and the decision was unfavOrable. Now,
Chang and Eng are said to have made a
deliberate decision on their own RESPONSE
bility.

Mr.. Wright, of Delaware, submitted res
solutions from Alexanner Il. Stephens, of
Georgia, which he asked to have read and re-
ferred in the name of Stephens T0heers
The resolutions we're read by the Secretary
They declare adherence to the Union; that
the Union under the Constitution is a union
of states. 1t referred to the doctrines Of JEFF
ferson, and the necessity of bringing the
government back to their observance. The
democratic party, in sustaining the federal
government during the late war, did it in
good faith to sustain the Constitution aud 10
preserve the rights and dignities of all the
States unimpaired, the highest need Of pa
triOtism due to ell who periled life and for.
tune for the maintenance OF Union, but we
have no thanks for Chase, who carried on
the war for subjugation of the States or to
subject the white to the black race.
Mr.. Richardson, of H., moved that all
resolutions hereafter submitted be referred
without reading. If the Convention took
any other course it would make some mis-
take and commit itself to something it could
not maintain on the stump.

A TOUCH YARS.-There is q place
in Maine so rocky that when the
natives plant corn they look for crevices
in the rocks, and shoot the grains in
with o musket /; they can't raise ducks
there no how, for the stones are so thick
that the ducks can't get their bills be-
tween them to pick out the grasshop-
pers, and the only way the sheep can
get at the sprigs of grass is BY grinding
their noses on q grind stone. But this
Amt a circumstance to a place in Mary
Iond-there the land is so poor that it
takes two kildees to cry Z" kildeal," and
ON a clear day You a see the grass
boppers climb up a mullen stalk, and
look. with tears in their eyes, over a ff-
ty acre field and the humble bees have
10 90 down on their knees to get at the
grass /; all the mosquitoes died of starv-
alton, and the turkey-buzzards were
obliged to emigrate. But there is q
county 10 Virginia which can beat that
there the land is so sterile that when
The wind is at northwest, they have to
lie the children to keep 'em from being
blown away-there it takes six frogs to
raise one croak, and when the dogs
bark they have to lean against the
fences-the horses are so thin that it
t,kes twelve of them to make a shadow,
and when they kill a beef they have to
hold him up to knock him down!

A BoUQuEr.-George Gray, the polite
and fascinating driver Of the Carson
stage, this morning presented the editor
of this paper with a bouquet Of Carson
flowers, of most delightful perfume, ex-
traordinary beauty Of %colors, and very
large in dimensions-two and a half
feet in length, and a foot and q half in
diameter-its weight being fifteen
pounds. There was a great variety of
Howers-prominent among which was
the gay and fragrant sun flower, a full
grown corn stalk, with several roasting
ears, q large yellow flower, with a stem
as thick as q mans wrist, and looking
like o tow-headed woman from Arkan-
sas, ten sprigs Of Canada thistle, orna-
mented with some sage brush in full
bloom, a few full grown leaves of
skunk weed, taken by mistake
for the CALAIS lily, o small sprig
of mint, some tansy, some boar
hound, some mustard in full bloom,
some wild caraway, in gushing fragrance;
two sprigs of wild clover, some highly
perfumed NORWOOD, and q small wild
rose, that looked like the Last Rose Of
Summer. This beautiful floral produc-
ton is now on exhibition in a large sill
YER punch turreen at the Bank Ex-
change, and is worth seeing. George
Gray is a florist, and this elegant bou-
quet illustrates Georges style in flow
ers-as well as everything else.
