VIRGINIA.

RICHMOND, April 29.-The Conserve
tive Convention assembled this morning,
and the minority report was withdrawn,
to make room for resolution TO adjourn
until ten days after Grants proclamation
for State election. This resolution was
defeated by majority of two-thirds, and
the majority report was then adopted
with but few dissenting voices. The de-
bate pointed unmistakably to Walker,
the conservative Republican candidate,
as the person to be supported for Gov
ernor. Resolutions we're adopted for
better organization, and the appointment
of committee to wait on Grant relative
to the submission of the Constitution;
and also to wait on General Candy, and
then adjourned sine die. The press rep
resentatives, of all parties, were admitted

ST.. LOUIS, April PA letter from
the Indian Territory, says those Indians
who have refused to come in on any
terms, are committing depredations on
the border and have killed three men
within the past three weeks. And those
here, while they appear to desire peace,
are profuse in their promises of future
good conduct. Bot still they are only
waiting for the grass TO fatten their
horses, and the issue of their goods,
when the western frontier Of Kansas aud
the northern counties of Texas will be
again the scene Of their buteheries.

were well received, and had q buoyant
effect generally, especially on the Gov
eminent bond market, where the speech
was interpreted as putting force to the
long-neglected period of 1861. If Mr..

nounced to day, there is every reason to
hope for an improvement in the finances
in future. m IL #q tal

A MERCIFUL CHARrTY.-A wealthy Ia
dy of Glasgow, Scotland, concerned for
the outcast Of her sex, finally set to
work in their behalf Meeting one Of
them in the street, she put her into
lodgings, clothed her, taught her, and
labored to bring her into better mlnd,
until the poor outcast gave evidence OF
a change Of life, and then procured her
steady employment. This first success
encouraged her to extend her labors.
At first her efforts were confined to the
street girls, who soon focked to her
shelter in greater numbers than she
could provide for Presently a way
opened for her to reach "higher class
of fallen women AS the result of one
years labor, she and her associates re-
port two hundred and fifty fallen wo-
men reclaimed. Only twenty relapsed,
and of these several returned in bitter
penitence, and are doing well; eighty
five reclaimed girls were restored to
their parents; forty-five engaged as
servants; forty in miscellaneous EN-
Payments, and sixty-six were still IN
der care.

SCANDAL LANE.

It is not on the signboard, sir,
Go search both far and WIDE;
Or ia the town directory,
The map or railroad guide;
And if you pump your ne1ghoorS' sif'
You pump, alas in vain,
For no one e'er acknowledged YET
He lived in Scandal Lane
1t is fearful neighbornooo'
So secret and SO sly;
Although the tenants o!tenIiiiio9
Include the rich and hlgn.
Tn fold they're even canmbals'
And when they dine or sup,
pr Nov of chance they'll turn about
And eat each other up
rr,av much prefer the youthful, sir,
The beautiful and rare;
They grind up character and all,
And call it wholesome fare
And should the helpless victim vince,
They heed not cries OF pam;
These very bloody cannlbals,
That live in Scandal Lane!
If YOU should chance to dine with them'
PRAY never be deceived,
When they seem most like bosom trlel0S
They're least to be believed.
Their claws are sheathed in velvet, SIT,
Their teeth are hid by smiles,
And woe betide the innocent
Who falls beneath their wlles
When they have singled out their prey
They make a cat-ike spring;
Or hug them like serpent, ere
They plant the fatal sting ,a
And then they wash their guilty Aauos'
But don't etface the stain,
These very greedy cannibalS
That live in Scandal Lane.

Snow EYEs.-Ellis, in speaking of
the Esquimeax, says: "Their snow eyes,
as they very properly call them, are a
proof Of their sagacity These are lit
tie pieces of wood, bone or ivory, so
formed as to cover the eyes, and tied on
behind the head. They have two Sits
the exact length of the eyes, but very
narrow. This invention preserves the
eyes from snow blindness, a very dan
gerous malady, caused by the action of
the light reflected from the snow. The
use of these eyes considerably strength
ems the sight, and the Esquimeaux are
so accustomed to them that when they
have a mind to view distant objects
they use them as spy-glasses.n"
