LETTER FROM HARRISBURG.
Cbrretpondtnu of the {Tribune. -
' Harbisbcko, Feb. 28, 1860.
| Gentlemen: —The political Conventions are put
ting a dead lock on legislation—little having;
been done last week, and probably less will be
done this week, os both .Houses have adjourned
over until next Friday.
1 suppose it is useless for me to say anything
about the Convention of the People’s-Party held
here lasi week, as you will be likely to give at
least an abstract of the proceedings 1 can only
say that the Convention ended more harmoni
ously than it commenced, and as for as my
knowledge goes, the action of the Convention
gives satisfaction to the people at large.
To-morrow the Conveution of the Democrats,
will bo held in Beading. It will unquestionably
be the largest gathering of the kind ever held in
the State. I was in Philadelphia yesterday, and
foundthe city crowded with distinguished Demr
ocratic politicians' from every section—and
among the rest'his serene excellency
Bigler, who goes to Beading as the direct agent
of the Administration of J. 8., to fix things.-f-
I shall not be much surprised, however; if he
.goes back to, Washington with a very big flea ip
his ear! Accounts from Beading last evening
stated that the little already crowded
to its utmost capacity—nearly forty-eight liouis
before the meeting of the Convention, and ,lohg
trains were still pouring in. As-1 anticipate ja
hot time, and an exceedingly lively one, I shall
go over this afternoon.
The Philadelphians pi }e a queer people, and
sometimes give birth .to very queer notions. The
last bn record is a bill introduced into the Sen
ate on Friday last, by Senator Smith, which has
fpr its object the chartering of a Company to
insure , tjie.ultimate payment of promissorynotes.
Fire, Marine, Live Stock and Life Insurance
Companies are among the institutions of tjie
day, and it is even said that in Paris there is an
Association for insuring" the fidelity of wivps,
bat an insurance of promissory notes is some
thing new Under the sun; but, uiifortunately*
the idea is impracticable. A company of tliia
"kind could bold the destinies of every poor devil
in Philadelphia, who was necessarily compelled
to give his I. 0. U.’s, in the hollow of its hands;
Another company asks to be incorporated-to
insure Bail Bead travellers against injury to life !
or limb. This is an old and exploded idea.—
Bail Boad Companies themselves arerespensibje
for such injuries, when caused by the negligence
of their servants, and it is not likely that ahy
company would issue a policy to pay a man dii*
magesincorred through .his own negligence. i;1
A bill has also been introduced by one of <|e
Philadelphia members, having for its object the
crushing but of the numerous fortune-tellers [jup
the pity. This bill should become a law. Fpw
know to .what an alarming extent .this systemof
addling 4s carried. Credulous servant gixp{s
and people who are weak - and silly enbngfa r 4
believe those who have reduced this system iof
. -'lt&dUhg;- 'to a science, pay to ka ep np no less
. tjhan twenty of these - establishments in phila
delpbia alone. ; K/ff!

and the Pope.
Scarcely any thing in the Preach and Ejngliah
papers, says a Sew York paper, bat tbe conteo
verey between Napoleon sod the Pope. It te fwt
that it may involve very grave consequences.—
. There are seriona apprehensions of personal
danger to Napoleon from the knife or the pistol
of some bigoted adherent of the Pope. Snoh an
event ns the assassination of Napoleon by an
emissary of the Church, at this crisis, might bo
the signal for a general revolution .in the Catho
lic countries of Europe. The moat rash anaom
i probable designs are attributed to the Pope.—
Letters from Rome say thas ho is deciding upon
exciting a religious war by Joining with the
Bourbons of Naples and Austria and instigating
-qivil commotion in the Italian States. The Pope
has been shocked by several public demonstra
tions of sympathy with Napoleon in Rome itself.
On the appearance of Napoleon’s letter to tbs
Pope, and also on the occasion of the change of
the Sardinian ministry and the restoration of
Count Cavour, crowds assembled about the
French garrison and raised the shout of “ Viva
Napoleon,” “Viva I’ltalia,” and refused to dis
perse at the orders of the'police. At such a mo
ment they might as well have cried, “ Down
with the Pope." The suppression of the ultra-
Catholio organ, the Paris Univert , is defended in
a semi-official article in the Corutitutionnel, which
is striking and significant in many respects. It
revives an old law, almost forgotten, ns a for
mal justification of the suppression, .which de
creed that no bull, prescript, &c., of the Pope,
should be published without the consent of the
Government. The law had been for years prac
tically obsolete, but it was convenient for use in
this emergency. The question of greatest in
terest now is, whether the Pope will submit or
resist. If the latter there will be troublous
times in the church, and possibly a new reli
gious war in Europe. It is reported that the
Queen of Spain has assured the Pope of her
support in the maintenance of his rights, but
neither Spain nor Aqstria are in a position to
give efficient aid to tbs pope, and none of the
other Catholic powers will be disposed to do it.
A man named Stephen Hamel, of Cin
cinnati; endeavored, the other night, to drive
some cats from a garret, and struck one of them
several blows with a stick, when suddenly the
cat leaped upon him with the ferocity of a tiger,
and before he could free himself from its grasp,
scratched and bit iiim about the face in a terri
ble manner. 'Ejie, next day he grew delirious,
and bis head swelled up to twice its natural
size. In this condition he lingered for several
days, when death came to his relief.
A young woman named Mary Graham,
shot George Fitzhugb, the overseer of a planta
tion in Hinds connty, Miss. Fitzhugb had se
duced the girl under promise of marriage, and
when asked by bis victim -to fuffull bis promise,
he scoffed at her petition, whereupon she drew
a revolver and shot him three times. He is not
expected to recover.
jgggr A wjorthy Scotch couple, when asked
how their son had broken down so early in life,
gave the following explanation : “ When wc
began life together we worked hard and lived
upon porridge, and such like, gradually adding
to our comforts as our means improved, until
we were able at length to dine off a bit of roast
meat, and sometimes a boiled cbuckie (chicken ;)
bat as for Jock, our son, be worked backward,
and began with the Shuekie first.”

Various theories hare been started relative to the origin
of intestinal worms, and yet the question is still a Taxed
one among medical attiliprities, Of one fcctj howiw, all

PITS ! WHY PROMINENT.
For a long time there was a a paragraph making its reg
ular weekly appearance in our columns, with the brief; but
emphatic words “Fits! Fits I” always at the head, to-soma
an offensive caption,-but not so to the bsuevoleotfand hu
mane, who could sympathize iu the sorrows of others. Some
persons are shocked at any indication of disease andaro oren
thrown into nervous excitement on witnessing a hoarse or
coffin. Such are to be pitied.' We shouldolways strive to
look disease and even death In Uip face with calmness, and
especially take every .opportunity for alleviating disease. —
Viewed in this light, the advertisements of S. S. Ilanco, of
108 Baltimore street,- Baltimore, Md, possess a certain In
terest, and those who know of any one suffering from JEpi
! lepsy, S|iasms, or F(tsiof any kind, should feel it a pleasure
to cut out his advertisement, or in some other way send
word to the affilctedcd* the great value of his remedies. They
can he sent to any pdft of tho country by mail. Pries, $3
