SUFFOLK CoNvkNTIoN.--We learn
that, in accordance with the late call, a
meeting OF Superintendents of counties
and cities composing this congressional
district was held at Suffolk Saturday
Much business Of great Importance to
the canvass was transacted and very
hopeful spirit prevailed among the
members.
No nomination, for Congress was made
at this time. the meeting considering
that such action might transcend the
powers with which they were invested
This matter, therefore, is left for future
consideration. We trust such sug-
gestions may be made, and such wise
course taken as will insure Union and
harmony upon this subject. The time
has arrived when some settlement should
be made, and some definite plan of
united and successful action indicated to
the people Of the district. Omitted we
stand divided-carpet-bagger or negro.

ket, or Saturday, presented the usual
abundance of articles, both seasonable

The WEATHER esterday and the
day before were magnificent days, and
their transcendent brightness was all the
more appreciable owing to the delight
full transition from the cloudy, dismal
weather of, the several days preceding.
The sun retired to his couch in the occi-
dent yesterday afternoon with an un-
usual majesty of, .mien aud wrapped in
robes of resplendent glorios. 1t was
grand and beautiful sight to witness the
mellow crimson glow old Sol impaired
to the dreamy, feecy clouds just as he
was sinking to rest. Just as he reached
the horizon hisuglory seemed to intensi-
fly, as if he would arouse himself once
more ere he babe us his daily adeu.
This display of the glory and the gran
deur of his power recompensed us for
the absence of his face and genial rays
for so many hours. The whole western
sky was tinged with his brilliant glory
even after no laid him down to sleep
behind thes drapery of the west-was
made Respondent with the reflection Of
his crimson majesty, meiowed by a
golden light, and softened by the pale
fleece-clouds resting, as it were, against
the deep azure vault of heaven. Our
beautiful harbor reposing beneath such
a canopy wore, indeed, lovely appear
ance even the surroundings were ra,
diant with indescribable' beauty.

Observation-Disclosures in this
city, we are sorry to say, is not going
on with that earnestness and prompti-
tude that the occasion 50 urgently calls
for. The old apathetic feeling still pre-
walls to some extent-be it said in
shame-and we. must, if we would do
our duty to our State. and all we love
and hold dear, try and try again until
we arouse from this deep, strange slum-
Der, the Rip Van Wrinkles of our city !;
arouse them to a full knowledge of the
situation, ,fraught, as it is, with such
vital interest to us. The man who re-
fuses to register, from apathetic indif-
ference, when his ;old mother Virginia
cries out to her sons for protec ton in
this, her darkest hour of need, is either
the veriest fool that ever numbered the
earth or is recreant to every principle
of manhood.

A highly Intelligent lady, resident of
Syracuse, N. Y, says that she was aff1ict-
ed nearly year, periodically, with de-
rangement OF the circulation, the blood
rushing to the lungs with such force as to
threaten congestion and death. This was
attended with the most intense pain in
all parts of the body. Failing to obtain
relief from any of the physicians whom
she employed from time to time, she was
induced to try the PLANTATION BITTERS,
and to her surprise and joy they have res
lieved her, and she Is now in good health
