Mr. Clymer was followed by Mr. Cass, Richard Vaux, and Daniel M. Fox, oi Philadelphia, and Mr. btyles. of Lehigh, all promising a hearty support to the nominee of the Convention. The convention tne a aajouruea sine ate. Andrew Johnson as aa Appi entice. Mr. Litchford. an old lournevman tailor, of Raleigh, thinks it was in 1818 that "Andy," as he called him, was bound apprentice to J. J. belby. He is described as a wild, "harum- scarum boy." But he had no "unhonorable traits about him." lie was exceedingly restless, and his activity In climbing fences, trees, etc., with the natural sequence thereof ot tearing his clothes, was a great source of trouble to his mistress. On account of hit propensities in this direction, she once made him a coarse, heavy shirt ot homespun goods, and the young gout lo rn an ior a short time was obliged to wear a whole under garment. in W2i he "cut," net because he was sent to a corn-field to work, as some one has said, but on account ol a "scrape with a lady by the name ot Wells, who had two right sma't daughters." With another boy named Grayson, an apDrentice in a rival shop, Andy "chunked the old lady's uouse" one Saturday nigm. jsexc aay sue neara who it was, and threatened to "persecute them on Monday." They heard of it aud "cut." Mr. Li I ch lord believes "he knew his A B C's when he came to the shop; bu 1 1 think I taught hitn to read." Mr. Litchford continued. "And he de serves unbounded credit, for some people say as how they have a grand start, and I reckon he started underground." Hi went to South Caro lina, and returned alter a year ana a nan, dur ing which time he had earned nis living w.th his needle. On his anlval he applied to Mr. Litchford, then keeping an establishment of his own, tor work; but be didn't get u because he had besn "advertised" as a runaway, and the law prevented any one from harboring him. air. BeiDy nan, during Anay s aDseace, sola out and moved into the country; but, with a desire to make due amends for his misdemeanor, the runaway walked twelve miles to sea him, and tried to make arrangements to pay bim lor his time. Mr. Belby required security, and Andy could not get it. He told Mr. Litchford that he would not let him be security if he would, and so he departed aeain, this time going to Tennes see. Mr. Litchford next heard of him as a mem ber of CoDgres s from that Slate, but did not be lieve it was "his buy Andy" tintil he saw it "ad-vertised-in the papers about the mechanics in Con gress, and saw the word tailor after his name." A pamphlet copy of one of his speeches sent to Mr. LHchtora, under his congressional iraaK, is jet in possession of the latter.

In the year 1846, the new syem of penny Hostage went into operation in that country. The revenue from the department had reached the sum of 1,600,000. The new system, as was to be expected, at nrst reduced this to ooo,uoo. At the end of the second five years this was (.lmoet doubled, and in 1864 the gross revenue was upwards of 4,000,000, on which the clear profits were about 1,160,000. Constant im provements nave been made, and although tne rates remain the same as in 1S40. there are more irequent mans, Detter delivery, ana increased accommodations for money orders. As the letters are delivered everywhere throughout the klDgaom, tne department ts obliged to keep an account ot the population aud the number of nouses. At Christmas, m 1K64. the population was 20,710,077, and if the rate of increase may be cal dilated from that of the previous year, it is no as nearly as possible 30,000,000. Tad inhabited houses were 3,603,001, having increased during the year by nearly 10.000 in Loudon and 30.000 in the rest of the kingdom. The total number of letters delivered to the inhabitants of the.'e houses iu the year 1864 was 679,084,822. This is a sufficiently remarkable statement, when we consider that in our own country the delivery of letters through tne post ollice reaches only about liO.uou.utiu, ana in trance, with a larger population, it is under 300.000,0110. The great multiplication oi letters is found to be in tne large towns, as ior instance in London where the number reached 170.000.000. which is more than the number written in all Scotland and Ireland together. In New York the nam ber delivered during the month of December, 1862. was 845.731. which is at the rate o 10,148,772 a year, or about ten letterj to each perbon, against an average oi more than nny delivered to each MhaDituni of London. The vast extent of London, and the difficulty of obtaining access to ail parts, has led to a ver extended UBe of the post otlice for tradesmen orders and many small matters of busines which otherwise would be conducted by per sonal interne vs. Of all tbe extensive and co-tly machinery con nected with the British Government, this seems to be the most satisfactory and most profitable, and its good influence upon the social condition of the people roust be very great. The custom of employing the office for the small purposes of hourly commuuication is said to be greatly on the increase, as-notbing is more convenient or cheaper than to get an errand well doue for only a penny. ,.

Nakbow Ehcapk. About noon yesterday a small child belonging to a Mr. Hnyder, who resides at r ourin and 1-euorai street.

A little djv had kiudled a bonfire near tho Catholic school house, and in pnssing it her clothes took tire, nnd the fl'imes almost instantly enveloped her. t: ortunately, bowever, they were smothered and extlncuislicd before she was dangerously injured, although ber clothes wore nearly burned up.

The present cold snap has again crowded the bta'.ion House Iu Camden with lodgers every night, and caused great dis tress among the needy in all sections of the city, making it necessary for the philanthropic and humaue to renew their exertions tor tho ame lioration of the condition of these worthy and fullering laminea. Sebiotjs Fibk. A serious flr occurred.
