The Know-Nothing Stole Cunyentlon was in session three or four Illtyr , last Week, sent so little interest - War manifested—even among the rank and tile—that not ten out of a thousand knew or cared that such a gathering was assembled in the city. Their deliberations were attended by secrecy and with closed doors, and the light of day was shut out. After a sharp and protracted scramble after office—nearly all, It is sold, of the delbgates were applicants -for some office or other—the following ticket for State ulll oars was agreed upon For Governor, Robert C.

This convention also chose the requisiti , number of Presidential electors. Thu ticket was published in the j se per, on Friday morning last, end very little, if any, entlin. niacin was ma II reStl,l, e‘ett among the most noisy members of the order. They all feel mighty sore shire the drubbing we gave them at the polls taut Monday week. A grand ratification meeting was called for Saturday night. and us Gnu. DOlllllO.ll was announced to speak, (but eli t et torn up) a respectable crowd congregated arcund the' Court fiance steps. The same enthusitutn did not characterize the speakers, as that experienced on the eve of the late election. The patriotic ordor is fast dying out, and their love for the Constitution seems to be eiliausted. Verily. verily, the way of the transgressor is leant Some of the more intelligent of the order, a n d in fact many of them, openly declare that they have uo idea of Fillmore accepting the nomination, and are prepared for his declination' any day.. This feeling prevails among u large proportion of the K. N's„ and they know not what to do. They are In but water, very hot water, about the selection of the Philadelphia Convention. Many there are, too, who will not support the nominee because Andrew Jackson Donation M placed on the canto ticket. We are still inclined to believe that Mr. Fillmore has too much re. gard for'his character us a man. and his reputation as a statesman, to allow his name to be used by this mid-night hand of office seekers and crusaders upon our adopted citi zens and the religions opinions of a large number of the people of this country. We still think Mr. Fillmore has not fallen quite so low as that, and unless eve are very much mistaken he will soon hand in his declination. The Democratic State Convention meets at Jefferson citythe present week. Notwithstanding the two wings o f Democracy, so long separated, united upon one ticket at our municipal election. and as a matter of course curried It through triumphantly, as they always did and always ran, when united—there are reasons for believing that thesame harmony will not prevail at the August eleetiod, but we still hope for conciliation, union and harmony in the Democratic ranks of Missouri, and the state is safe against all 'opposing parties, factions and isms—against all odds. The present week, however, will determine the fate that awaits Missouri in August next. A large meeting, called together by huge handbills for a grand rally of the "National Democracy' , of St. Louis, convened at the Rotunda on Monday night last. Some fifteen or twenty prominent Whigs took an active part.— We think this meeting rather premature, and destined to create a bad feeling In the party throughout the state. The delegates to the State Convention will do a good day's work If they can succeed in constructing a platform long enough and strong enough and broad enough for the united Dem ocratic masses to stand upon—if they can, the day Is ours and if they do not, for the.first time Ike •reins of the Slot , Gorernment passes into new hands. Gen. Preston, of Ken' tacky, delivered an able and powerful speech at the meet ing on Monday night last. We are not, however, willing to give up the approaching struggle in this state, without fighting our political enemies to theiileath ; we still hope and believe there Is virtue and patriotism enough in the Democratic ranks to save the State. and with this conceit.

The Whig party of Kentucky is about reorganizing. An address Las been issuedand a "platform" adopted—adherin g to "ancient Whig principles." The probabilities are that this step of the whlgs of Kentucky, will be the means of rallying the members of the dead body to a sense of duty in other States, and as it is too late to bring out a candidate for the Presidency, will resolve, for this time, to go the Democratic ticket; for if they ever expect to build up the' Ca party, they must first kill oft Know-Nothingism anti Black Republicanism, for in that posture the "stray sheep' of their flock can be found, and when they are once routed may, possibly, fall into line once more. We will see what we shall see. Ike The Cleveland Plain Dealer in notic ing the election of the Democratic ticket in that city by a majority of four hundred, says; "This is, indeed, glory enough for one day. Fusionism and know-nothingism have run their race in Cleaveland. Councilmen and constables must seek some other hobby for the future. The black-republican ruffians who hung Douglas in effigy `on the public square one year ago are themselves now dang ling in the air. "'There is a tide in the affairs of men.' " DEMOCRATS, be firm ! Relax not your or ganization I Keep the enemy always in your sight This is presidential year, and this is its glorious beginning. There is not a ward in the pity we cannot carry at thenext election by the proper exertion. The city is rousingly democratic, and so will be the whole country • Ninember next !" A Candid Santimant. The subjoined remarks of the West Chester Republican, are so truthful and pointed, that they cannot fail in carrying conviction to the mind of every intelligent Democrat throughout the Union who may read them : It is not only true that Mr. Buchanan can carry the state of New York, but all the in dications are that his name will secure the electoral vote of every Northern State thathas usually gone with the Democracy. Can this be said with any degree of certainty of the other candidates named ? There is no man but one wilfully blind who will venture to say so. We do not doubt that the Southern States can be given to either Mr. Pierce or Mr. Doug las or one of their own sons, but the Southern States, without the aid of northern assistance, cannot elect a President. We must carry New York, Pknosylvania. or Ohio or we are lost, and the power of the government goes into the hands of those' sectionalists who are now 'marshalling their forces for the great struggle. If we are beaten in the next Presi_ dential canvass the fault is our own. There are men who claim to be the friends of the democratic party par excellence, who see all this, and yet they seem to say by their actions that they prefer a candidate who stands every chance of being beaten, to one who bears with him all the elements of success. If there ever was a man who was emphati cally the people's choice, that man is James Buchanan. In every section of the country the ,a,,sses are calling for his nomination, and yet it is a remarkable fact that the prditicians are rallying their forces fur other men. They dare not take open ground against him, but yet their actions show that they are not cor dially with him. These men must be closely watched at Cincinnati, or the great states man, the last of the giants, will he cheated out of a nomination that is unmistakably his, if there is any attention paid by the national delegates to the popular voice of their con. stitnents. The entire Democratic Press is deeply inter ested in securing a man for whom they can go with an earnest and undivided heart. The2,- do not wish to have the Cincinnati Convention cut the sinews of their willing efforts in the glorious cause—they du not want to be put on the defensive during the entire campaign, but they ask to he placed in a position where they can uUw•k the miserable political heresit; of a combined and reckless opposition. Fur Mr. Buchanan, with all his glorious ante cedents, every democratic editor, North, South, East and West, can go into the battle clad in armour of triple steel, defying the assaults of those who would weaken the bonds of this great confederacy of states. The Democracy will nut have to fight such a battle alone.— There are thousands who have heretofore been opposed to us, now ready and anxious to as sist us in the struggle. Give us Buchanan, and we meet the opposition with the manly and ringing shouts of defiance. Istai Span Ea,..The Legislature adjourned, sine die, on Tuesday. All the important bills of the session, we understand, were passed. Among these wore the general appropriation bill and the bill restoring the charter of the Erie and North East railroad, conditioned on the con struction of a branch road to the wharves at the harbor, and a subscription by the compa ny of $400,000 to the first 1S mile , of the 'Erie and Pittsburg railr.ad, wide!' is common to this road and the Sunbury and Eric road. This, it is supposed, will insure the immedi ate construction of a road from Erie to the rich coal mines of Mercer, and assist materi ally in the prosecution of the Sunbury and Erie railroad. Before the adjournment of the Senate, ac cording to custom, the Speaker, who.se'Sena torial term expires this year, resigned, and a new Speaker was elected. Senator Browne, of Philadelphia, who is on the second year of his term is the Speaker elect. Later from San Juan.--Defeat. of Colonel Sehlessinger.--Another Battle.--Defeat of the Costa Ricans. Ni.w ORLEANS, Aprtl 22. —Thu steamer Charles Morgan arrived to-day from San Jo an, with dates to the 16th inst. • The steamer Orizaba arrived at San Juan with 525 passengers. The defeat of Schlessinger in Costa Rica is confirmed. ,He lost 50 killed. The defeat is said to have been caused through the negli gence of Col. Schlessinger. The remnant of his party had arrived at Rivas. The men were loud in their curses of the cowardly Col onel. Captain Thorpe faced Schlessinger in the field with pistols, and threatened to shoot him, but his gallantry proved useless; the in efficiency of their commander had created a panic. None of the usual precautions had been taken against surprise, though within the heart of the enemy's country. Capt. Thorpe was a passenger on board the Charles Morgan. He reports Gen. Walker at the head of the army, and occupying a good position. His prospeots are improving and large accessions are daily arriving to increase his forces. Another battle had taken place at A rcopoka between 14 Americans under Capt. Baldwin and 200 Costa Ricans. The latter were de feated with 50 killed, while Capt. Baldwin lost only 2. Mr. Dallas in London The National Intelligencer has the following extract of a private letter from an American gentleman in London to his friend in Wash ington, dated the 27th ultimo : "Mr. Dallas has every reason to be satisfied with his recption here. Lord Palmerston called on him as soon as he arrived, and in the most friendly way pressed him to dine with him the next day without any form; which he did, and was much pleased with every thing that passed. Lord Palmerston has promised to present him to the Queen as soon as she ar rives in London. Lady Palmerston also called on Mr. Dallas, with, I believe, Lady Wolde house, wife of Lord Woldehouse, Under Sec retary of State. The Earl of Ellismere, being in the country, wrote a most kind note and sent the family admissions to his splendid gal lery of paintings in his town house, and stat ed he would make a point of calling as soon as he came to London, and wished to show them all the civility he possibly could. Many oth ers had done the same. Mr. Oakford, formerly of Philadelphia, but now a merchant of Lon don, having hpplied to Mr. Dallas on the sub ject of the missing . steamer Pacific, and wish ing to prevail on the Admirality to send a steamer in search of her, Mr. Dallas gave him a letter to Lord Palmerston. Mr. Oakford went on Sunday to Lord Palmerston's private residence, and although he found him very much engaged with two secretaries writing dispatches to Paris, as soon as be received Mr. Dallas's letter he entered immediately on the subject and introduced Mr. Oakford to Admi ral Richards ; and it was agreed to send two men-of-war steamers immediately in search of the packet, and they promised to do every thing they could to find her. Lord Palmers ton wrote a most kind note to Mr. Dallas stat ing what he had done." AMENDMENTS TO TILE LIBEL LAW.—The fol lowing bill has passed both . Houses of the Legislature OLD GUARD SucrtoN : l.

The Peace Conferences continue the sittings at Paris. Austria had caused trouble in regard to the Principalities, but had ulti mately agreed to evacuate them. Turkey, al. so, had thrown some difficulties in the way of a complete settlement. The Allies had ordered the raising of the blockade of the Russian ports, and 'the Czar had permitted the resump lion of the exportation of corn 'from Odessa. There had been another unsuccessful search fur the Pacific. The French army is to be re_ dared to 400,000 men. Breadstuffs had suf fered a decline. The Cunard steamer Arabia reached Hali fax the same morning, bringing Liver pool dates to the 12th instant--three days la ter than the adviets of the Arago. The news is not very important. The tele graph is kept busy between Rome, Naples, Vienna and Paris, in reference to the Italian difficulty that was introduced into the Peace Conference by Count Cavour.

It has without the ordinary appliance used for'such purposes, won its way, and been heartily welcom ed to most of the cities and towns in the United States the Canadas, and the West India Islands.

RHODES, Esq.: Dear Sir—As I took your medicine to sell On consignment, no cure no pay," I take pleasure in stating its effect. as reported to me by three brothers who live in this ]dace, and their testimony is a Lair speci men of all I have received : W. S. CONKLIN told me—••l have taken nine bottles of Christie's Ague Reliant, and continually run down while using it until my lungs and liver was Congested to that de gree that blood discharged from my mouth andhowels, so that all. thought it impossible for me to live through anoth er chill. the doctors too did all they could for me, but thought I must die. Nothing did me any good until I got Rhode's Fever and Ague Cure, which at once relieved we of the distress and nausea at my stomach and ratio in my head and bowels, and produced a permanent cure to a short time." H. H. CONKLIN says: "I had been taking medicine of as good' a doctor as we have in our county, and taken any quantity of quinine and specifics without any good co-mil, from 25th August to 17th December. But seeing how nice ly it operated on my brother, I got a bottle of RHODES' FEVER AND AGUE CURE, which effected a permanent cure by using two-thirds of a bottle." 5. H. CONKLIN was not here, but both the other broth ers say his case was the same ILI 11. Ito. I sold the medi cine to both the same day, and the cure was as speedy from the same small quantity, and I might so specify. Yours with respect, A. lIUNTINGTON. T heabove speaksfor itself. Good proof as it is, it is of no better tenor than the Vale number of like certificates 1 hoe already published, and the stilt greater amount that is contin . natty pouting in to me. One thing more—Last year I had occapion to Caution the Public in these trords "I notice one flnn who hate taken one of my general circulars, substituted the name of their nostrum for my medicine, and then with brazen impudence end their pam phlet with the exclamation, 'Let the proprietor of any oth er medicine my as much if he dame,' " d-c. Now I take plemiure in saying that the Caution referred to the same '• Dr. Christie's Ague Balsam," that is men tioned in the above corrincate. There are several miler industrious people who areap. plying to their poisonous trash all that I publish about my Fever and Ague Cnre, or Antidote to Malaria, except the Certificate of Cures, and the Certificate of the celebrated Chemist, Dr. James R. Chilton, of N. Y., in fat or of its per fectly HARMLESS CHARACTER, which is attached to ere*. bottle. These will always serve to distinguish my medicine from imitations. JAB. A.
