Invite medal attention to their stook of SILVER
WARE, whin!' is now unusually large, affording a va
riety of pattern and design unsurpamed by any house
the United States, and of finer quality than is manufac
tured for table use in any part of the world,
Our Standard of Silver is 985-1000 parts pure.
The English Sterling 925.1000 et
Alined= and French 900.1000 "
Thus it will be seen that we give thirty-five parte porn,
then the Amerioan and Freneh coin, and ten parts purer
than the English Sterling. We melt all onr own Silver,
and our Foreman being consented with the Refining De
partment of the United States Mint for several years, we
guarantee the gush ty as above (035), whaoh le the Amiss

`OTANLEY'S LIFE OF DR. ARNOLD.
Ono-ef the moat delightful and improving of
modern English' books, is "Tom Brown's
choOl-days at Rugby," which describes that
reeowned poblic Academe as it flourished du
riag the Miciouit. reign of Dr. Arnold, its ac
complished Iload-Master. Arnold was a man
cr grQat scholarship, wise judgment, strong
Islings, unpharisaleal piety, strictest honor,
d deep affections. His pupils loved him as
children love a parent, who is also a friend.
/4 Rugby School, among several hundred
toys, such a thing as a falsehood was rarely
Pored. The boys would say among each
other, , g We . must not abuse the confidence of
Arnold, for he trusts us." If an accusation
were brought against any lad, and ho denied
It, there the matter ended—Arnold would not
think that any one could tell a lie to him. The
`rdsttit was, that a high feeling of honor pre
veiled in the school, which was one of the most
popular, as it was one of the bust conducted,
in England. Among scholars, Dr. Arnold is
known as a historian, and by his admirable
edition of Thucydides. He wrote a volume of
Sermons also, which are practical and clear.
He died, in 1842, at the comparatively early
age of fortjtseven. Tho «Life and Corres
pondence of Thomas Arnold, D. D.," was
published, not long after his death, by Mr.
Arthur Penrhyn Stanley, (son of the late
Bishop of Norwich,) now Regius Professor of
Ecclesiastical History in the University. of
Oxford. This biography is full of Interest, and
immediately obtained reputation in England. It
was republished in this country with equal suc
cess. The third American, from the last London
eBition, has just been published by Ticknor &
Iltelds, of Boston, got up in their usual neat
Manner, in two volumes. The author, who
Was himself t‘ a Rugby boy," from 1829 to
1884, enjoyed a friendly intercourse with Dr.
Arnold to the close of Isis career, and indeed,
*Ett3 selected by his family to write tho life. It
May be remembered how Boswell, Moore, and
,Lockhart made the correspondence of John
eon, Byron, and Scott tell a great deal of the
Story, and show much of the character of their
oubjects. Just so, ham Professor Stanley dealt
With the letters of Dr. Arnold, weaving them
into the story of his life. Tho new edition
tiontains many letters not previously published,
'ejnd we presume that the biography may now
he considered
: complete., Wks do not know
whether the previous edition contained the
highly interesting and valuable extracts from
travelling journals, kept by Dr. Arnold, in hie
tours through Italy, France, Germany, Swit
serland, and Scotland, from 1825 to 1841, only
the year before his death. Whether new or
Old, they aro capital. The life of Dr. Arnold,
it strikes us, is a necessity in all private collec
tions of books formed with a view above mere
amusement.
GOETHE% CORRESPONDENCE WITH A CHILD.
I There died, at Berlin, about eleven months
ago, a remarkable woman, named Bettina von
Arnim, sister of Clemens Brentano, a brilliant
dramatist and novelist, whose plays continue
to be performed in Germany. She was widow
of Ludwig Achim von Arnim, poet and novel
-Ist, who died in 1881. At an early ago she
lost her mother, and was educated chiefly at
Frankfort, her native place, by her aunt, So
phia Laroche. When aged only eighteen, ex
cited by the example of Madame Gunderode,
who committed suicide be:it:s l e w : cneorttaoinnwPrfoor
teaser Creuser did not return her wild attach
ment, Bettina became violently enamored of
works.the celebra te , ( r l bl G . oLthe . , from merely reading
leis
Ills genius, but even for the man himself, who
was then a sexagenarian. She entered Into a
correspondence with him, through his mother,
Whom she knew, and the letters of both par
ties aro very curious. In her letters, which
spread over a period of seventeen years, there
can bo perceived the double character of
Bettina's admiration of Goethe as a great poet
and as a man to be loved. She was somewhat
of what the French call a femme litre; but,
sensuous rather than sensual, her love passages
were intellectual. Goethe replied to her let
ters in sonnets and touching epistles, and the
whole correspondence was published in 1885,
at Berlin, after his death, (when Bettina was a
,widow,) under the title of (‘ Goethe's Biel%
weehsel mit Maim Kinder "—Goethe's
Correspondence with a Child-:. of which
a translation into English, executed by
Bettina herself, was published in London.
The work contains Bettina's correspondence
with Goethe and his mother, known all over
Germany as Frau-Rath, mother of the Coun
cillor of State, and also Bettina's own Jour
nal. Tho correspondence is very curious, and
could only have taken place in Germany,
where romance continues to abide, and an il
lustrious man of letters 18 held in great esteem.
Bettina indulged in rhapsody and passionate
language, but her thoughts also have depth
and originality. Goethe, who fooled her to
the top of her bent, probably epistolized and
versified for her, to amuse himself. At all
events, the correspondence and journal were
worthy of being well translated, and Ticknor
& Fields have brought it out beautifully print
ml on tinted paper, in a superior manner. It
is a book to read through, of odd hours, a do
zen pages at a time. Bettina was nearly forty
when her correspondence with Goethe closes,
and, when she died, last January, was seventy
three years old, Besides her letters to Goethe,
with his replies, sho published, in 1840, (‘ Cor
respondence with Madame de Gunderode,"
sort of idyl; also, about the same time, her
letters, in 1843. 4( This book belongs to the
King," (Dies Buch gehort dom Komige,) and
in 1148 (‘ Pamphillus and Ambrosia," being
her correspondence with M. Nathusins, a
great Prussian manufacturer. In her late
years sho exhibited much active philanthropy
in regard to the amelioration of the condition
of the working classes of Berlin, where she
had pissed over one-half her lifo.
AUTOGRAPH EICHINALBY AMERICAN AR•
Photography is not long out of its teens.
On the 7th January, 1839, M. Arago first
communicated the invention to the public,
in an account of the Daguoireotype pro
cess, which ho road before the Academy
of Sciences, in Paris. About the same time
when M. Daguerre completed his discovery,
Mr. Fox Talbot, an Englishman of largo for,
tune and great scientific knowledge, had in
vented the process by which paper could be
made as sensitive, to receive the represent
ations of objects, as the French invention had
rendered plates of copper coated with silver.
There have been various applications of the
Photographic Art, but scarcely any more beau-
tiful than ono which Mr. John W. Ehninger,
an artist of some note in New York,. has
lately made. Tho results may be seen in a
volume, small 4t0., published by W. A. Town
send & CoMpany, Now York, which may be
seen at their agent, S. McHenry, 406 Wal
nut street. It bears tho name of "Auto
graph Etchings by American Artists," which
are illustrated by selections from American
Poets. The artists are A. B. Durand, E.
Leutze, J. F. Kensett, F. 0. C. Barley, J. W.
Casiloar, Eastman Johnson, S. R. Giffonl, G.
C. Lambdin, George Boughton, W. P. W.
Dana, L. It. Mignot, and J. W. Ebninger, and
the poets are F. S. Cozzons, J. G. Whittier,
J. R. Lowell, W. C. Bryant, Alfred B. Street,
Charles Sprague, N. P. Willis, J. W. Parsons,
T. B. Read, Bayard Taylor, R Stdddart, and
W. Longfellow. The etchings, as they are
called, are so very beautiful that we scarcely
know which to give a preference to. Perhaps
the best are The Puritan, by Lentz° ; Autumn,
by Kensott Noon, by Darley ; Childhood, by
Lambdin; The Seashore, by Mignot, and The
Exiles, by Ehuinger. These are the produc
fions which the artist has had the assistance of
Light to place in this perta.ment form. Mr.
Ehninger has discovered a material by which
the negative Is produced by the hand of the
artist. A Illm of collodion, rendered opaque
by a deposition of nitrate of silver, is placed
upon a plate of glass. This is put upon black
cloth, or any other dark material, and the artist
draws upon it with a needle, each touch re
moving a small portion of the thin coating of
collodion, and laying the glass bare below.
Tho effect is like writing with a finely-cut pen
cil on a sheet of Bristol board. Thus, draw
ing dark lines on a light ground, the artist sees
his way all along, Which ho cannot see in cop.
per etching. Tho drawing complete, it is ra
pidly flooded, for socurity sake, with the
thin transparent varnish used by photograph.
ors, and an impression printed from this will
produce a fac-simile of the drawing made.
The plate is now a nigatire. Mr. Ehnin
ger described a process by which ho can
,throw in superior delicacy of half•tint. The
great advantage is that the artist, by this now
process, literally engraves his own design, of
which Light multiplies copies. The charac
teristics of the various artists who have contri
buted to Mr. Ehninger's book are wholly pre-
Served. Tho advantages of using collodion
arelhat its surface le uniform and delicate, and
it is not apt to deteriorate. Mr. Ehninger's
mode, of subduing the color—necessary to pro
duce a fine aerial perspective—is very simple,
now that ho discloses it, but without this fin
ishing'touch, the invention would be only half
accomplished. We recommend the curious in
these matters to visit Mr. McHenry, and satisfy
themselves of the beauty and perfection of
Mr. Ehninger's liscovery. It makes a new
era in Photography, and the volume contain
ing its results should find a quick sale. Only
a few hundred copies have bean got up for
sale, we understand.
DICKENS'S "TALE OF TWO CITIES."
The publication entitled All the Year Round,
of last Saturday (Dec. 8,) and Harper's
Weekly of the same date, contained the con
clusion of DICKENS' new story, "A Tale of
Two Cities," completed in London on the same
day. The reprint in Harper's Weekly was en
riched by a large number of well-executed
wood engravings, after original and very
characteristic drawings by Jolts ilictssa.s, Of
Now York, who is taking a place as hook.
illustrator, beside GEORGE ORTLESHANK and
H. K. BROWN, of Loudon. T. B. PETERSON &
Brothers, of this city, who participated with
Messrs. HARPER of New York, in payment of
$5,000 to CHARLES DICKENS, for the ad
vance sheets of this new story—which he
believes to be his best production—have
already published jive ditrorent editions of
it, viz: two volumes 12mo, with illustra
tions by McLitNAN, bound in cloth ; one
volume 12mo, with two illustrations; ono,
making the fourteenth volume of PETERSON'S
octavo illustrated edition; one, library edi
tion, with illustrations ; and a fifth, also iivo,
in paper cover. The prices of these vary from
$2.60 to 60 cents, and they may be had in all
varieties of binding to range with the previous
publications of DICKENS by PETERSON &
BROTHERS. We simply mention these facts
now to show that we have live publishers here.
No reserve a criticism on the book foranother
and an early opportunity. We will only add
that, in absolute power, there are portions of
this tale not surpassed by anything previously
written by CHARLES DICKENS. We know that
ho has written no previous tale with half the
care and anxiety to make it effective and
truthful.
Notices of New Books.
A complete edition, in six volumes, 12mo, of the
works of Charles Broaden Brown, a Philadelphian
by birth, education, and resid,enee, and the first
American novelist of any note, has been published
by Mr. M. Pelee's, of this city. Brown's novels
have been out of print for some time, and this new
and neat edition will be acceptable to many read
ers. There also Is, prefixed to " Wieland," an ex
cellent biography of the author, whose other works
are "Ormond," "Arthur Mervyn," "Edgar
Huntly," "Clara Howard," and "Jane Talbot,"
all written in about four years.' Brockden Brown,
among the novelists of this country, holds a high
place. onestss comptewty - gttrinto tiodwie
manner, and he also resembled Godwin in his
choice of eubjeots, and manner of treating them.
He was little more than thirty years old when he
abandoned writing fiction. But his writings will
live, and they deserve to be reproduced in the
handsome manner in which Mr. Polock has platted
them before the public.
Mentioning ono American novelist reminds us of
another, of no email ability—J. P. Kennedy, now
of Baltimore. In this book-making age, Mr. Ken
nedy is ono of few who can justly be accused of
having written too little. In 1832 ho published
"Swallow Barn," his first work of fiction. In
1835, "Horse-Shoe Robinson" appeared, and "Rob
of the Bowl" followed in 1838. His admirable
"Life of William Wirt," the biographer of Patrick
Henry, described by Byron as "the forest-born
Demosthenes," was published in 1819, and closed
his literary career. 'At a time when American
writers were little known in England, all of Mr.
Kennedy's works of fiction were republished In
London, with eminent success. Lippincott kCo ,
of this city, have just brought out a uniform edi
tion of Kennedy's novels, in three volumes, with
portrait of the author, and other illustrations. It
ought to command a large circulation, in thisband
some and complete form.
Thu Rev. Dr. Nicholas Murray, author, among
other well-known works, of "Kirwan's Letters to
Archbishop Hughes," has completed another work,
which Harper do Brothers have Just Pubilihed. It
is entitled " Preachers and , Preaching," and Its
purpose is enunciated In the declaration that "in
a ministry of thirty years' continuance he has no•
tieed the causes of the success and of the failure of
ministers, and the good and bed conduct of parishes
and people towards them ; and the results are here
stated fur the instruction of all concerned." Dr.
Murray takes the subject In almost every point of
view, and the result Is a volume which even the
general reader may reed with satisfaction. There
are hints in this volume as to the manner in which
congregations do and the manner in which 'they
ought to treat their pastors, which, if acted upon,
will do a great deal of good. Dr. Murray stands
up, as be ought, for "his order."
Parents end children will be glad to learn that
Jacob Abbott has written another story-book for
jnveniles, which is called " Stories of Rainbow and
Lucky," and has boon published, with pretty illus
trations, by litirper & Brothers. As usual, Mr.
Abbott Instructs as well as entertains his readers.
No one can read Mr. Abbott's writings without ob•
Mining a knowledge of something he was not pre
viously acquainted with.
A volume of unusually good poetry, chiefly con
slating of lyrics and sonnets, (the latter remarkably
fine,) is " Avolio; a Legend of the Island of Cos,
and other Poems," published by Ticknor do Fields,
Boston, and written by Paul IL Bayne, a South
Carolina gentleman, we believe.
We also have received, and can only thus briefly
aoknowledge, "The Law and the Territories,"
published by 0. Sherman, of this city. " C(X)s
coo-soo ; or Letters from Tangier, in Africa"
by G. Fort—an amusing volume, published by
Gaut d Volkmer ; and " The Young Men of Amo•
flea," a prise essay, by Samuel Batchelder, Junior,
of Cambridge, Mass., published by Sheldon h Co.,
New York.
The Compass Flower.
(For The Press,)
Behold the Compass Flower! &little flower
Whi c h starts up in the prairies, like a thought
Of beau yin some wasted bosom wrought,
And cheers the traveller in his dreariest hour—
For it directs him on his devious way,
Even as the needle doth the sailor, toil
On landless billows, desolate and 'oat,
Without a star to lend its guiding ray.
Pointing due North, its leaves and petals show
Where lie the undiscovered mime, and where
The icebergs lift their pinnacles in air
From deep foundations of eternal snow.
Pointing to where the Arctic circle keeps
Its awful secrets locked in merceless gloom,
And Franklin, the explorer, in hie tomb
Of frost, unchangeable, for ever sleeps.
Pointing to that lost, utmost verge, around
The pole, whereon the solid planet turns.
And, all undimmed. the Boreal splendor burns
Out of the darkness of that vast profound.
Thou extreme North what is the force that draws
Toward thee alike the needle and this dower,
What is that wierd, inexplicable powe r—
Of ouch mute marvel whet the wondrous cause
Thus, as the traveller his path pursues
Lonely acmes the Texan wilderness,
Ouch musings ma) his idle mind emcee
While the mean Compete Flower he gladly views.
Brightening the desert, as the twinging light,
Bet here and there upon a wave-borne buoy,
Inspires the ooastwlee pilot's heart with joy,
When lie surveys it through the murky night.
How email a thing, and yet how great a deed !
Like ninny a blessing which our God bestows,
From the sweet scent and glory of the rose
To the strange virtue in a homely weed.

PERSONAL AND POLITICAL.
TEXAS UNITED STATES SESllOll.—The
Galves
ton News of the 221 nit. says: •
"The Demooratio party went, the evening of the
16th, into a caucus to nominate a United States
Senator, to All the vaeanoy.caused by the death of
Henderson. Sixty-two members were present.
The names of Col. L. T. Wield!, M. D Graham,
and Mat. Ward were put in nomination. After
twenty ballots had been taken, Col.Wigfall wax
nominated as the choice of the Democratic party.
The election on the part of the House of Repre
sentatives has been postponed until Friday next.
The question is raised whether a member of the
Legislature is eligible to the Senate."
The seat is now occupied by Col. Mat. Ward,
under appointment from the Governor. The term
expires In 1863.
THE DIFTIIIIENCE.--Ohlo is one of the few free
States whieh, at the &A election, gave a larger
Democratic vote than she did in 1856, at the Pre
eldential election. There were more Democratic
ballots in the box for Judge Hammy than Presi
dent Buchanan received, although the total vote
of the State was thirty thousand less. In Penn
cylvanla, the Democratic State ticket received
scaly thousand lest votes than President Bu
chanan got in 1856. The reason of the difference
in the two States is this : In Ohio, the Demeerats
took Territorial popular sovereignty groande.
while in Pennsylvania they occupied an equivocal
position. The same difference may be seen in the
votes of Indiana and Illinois. The Democratic
vote in Illinois was 22,000 larger in 1858 than it
was in 1856 for President. In Indiana It .was
12,000 or 13,000 less in 1858 tban.it was at the con
test-two years previous. In Illinois, the'Demo;
orate made 'the issue clear and distinct—that the
people of a Territory, like those of a State, should
determine the slavery question far themselves!.
In Indiana, the politicians hid and obscured the
issue, and the eonseguenee was a large failing off
in our vote.—Cinsinnati Enquirer.

delegates friendly to the nomination of Douglas
In most of the dhltriote no opposition whatever was
made to the selection of his friends. The Cincin
nati Enquirer, of the 4th invent, after giving an
account of the PrOceedings in many of the districts,
says ; "The districts to be beard from are the To.
lode, Tiffin, Knox, and Clermont. They will all
mead Douglas delegates. The t tate may be set
down as unanimous for Dangles; twenty-three votes
on every ballot."
A WOVAN LIVES SIXTY -Elfin? DAYS WISDOM'.
FOOD.—The Oskaloosa lowa Herald, el' November
21th, says that the wife of Mr. Henry Cruets, of
Madison township, of that county, who was insane,
determined, on being prevented from committing
suicide in any other manner, to starve herself to
death. She died on the sixty-eighth day after
ceasing to take food, and took nothing In the mean
time bet a little water and three dosses of cathartic
pills, which she took to shorten her sufferings,
but which her friends gave her in connection with
a dozen dough pills, as she would not take them
unless she took a large number, and they got a lit
tle food thus into bar stomach by deception. She
was a large, fleshy woman when she commenced
to refustefood, and retained her consciousness, and
resolute determination till within three days of bar
death. The editor of the Herald vouches for the
above. We, with him, consider it one of the most
remarkable eases on record of being so long a time
without food.
GP Bon. Joseph Holt, Postmaster General of
the 'United States, has recently decided a question
as interesting as it is novel. A husband, who had
been separated from his wife, demanded that his
village postmaster should deliver her letters to
him, and threatened a suit at law if his demand
was not compiled with. The wife, on the other
hand, forbade the delivery of her letters to the
husband. In these eireumstances, the postmaster
appealed to Mr. Holt for instructions. That gen
tleman pronounces the claim advanced by the hus
band too preposterous to be seriously refuted—in
deed, ha says it is abhorrent to law as it is to the
Christian civilisation of the age.
THE SOUTH CAROLINA DISUNION RESOLUTIONS.—
In tbe South Carolina Hons., Dec. 1, Mr. Ham
mond introduced the following :
Whereas, One John Brown, instigated (as it is
believed) by the Abolitionists, in the so-called free
States of this Confederacy, Lid counter:snood by
leading members of the party. known as the Re
publican party—folly cognizant of his plins—has
recently attempted to excite a servile insurrection
In the States of Virginia and Maryland and
Whereas, Although not* single clay. was se
duced to join actually in said insurrection, and
the first person murdered In the outbreak by
the conspirators was a negro opposing them.
yet the said Brown and his few amoolates were

peatrng border
a
security, to capture a town of two thousand in
habitants, and an armory and arsenal et the Bai
ted States, and to bold the same for two days .
and several peaceful citizen were sasaseinated ;
and
Whereas, Although all of the conspirators ac
tually engaged In this attempt have been, it Is rair
posed, killed or captured, and executed, or are to
be executed, according to law,
after fair trial, it
may be reasonably anticipated that others will be
instigated to renew, and ••perhaps to renew fee
quently, and in stronger gangs, each murderous
and treasonable outrages against the peace and
safety of the Southern States, and their demotic
and political institutions: therefore,
Be a Retake'', By the Senate and Rouse of Re
presentatives of the State of South Carolina—
• 1. 'That the defence and secure maintenance of
the system of African slavery, as existing in the
South, is a enure common to all the Southern
States, And that the burden of it should not rest on
the border States alone.
11. That at the call of any border or other South.
ern State, for a Convention 'of the slaveholding
States, the Governor of the State of South Carolina
bo required to appoint suitable delegates to said
Convention, who are'hereby authorized 'to pledge
this State to furnish her full quota of men and her
full contribution of money for the fortification of
all the neoessary points on the northern frontiers
of tho slaveholling States, and the garrisoning and
perpetual support of the same.
111. That while considerations of safety and se.
entity. obvious and paramount, justify and compel
snob measures of defence, in view of this incendi
ary attempt of John Brown, and the apparent state
of public, sentiment in the so-called free States,
this Legislature does not hesitate to declare that
this Union—at best, of doubtful value to the South
—would be scarcely an atom in the scale against
the perpetual maintenance of our system of Afri
can slave labor ; and to advise that when the con
tinuance of the said Union endangers or seriously
embarrasses that system, that the South should die
card said Union at once and forever.
IV. That the Governor of the State be requested
to forward a copy of those resolutions to the Go
vernors of all the States of the Confederacy, and
to our Senators and Representatives in Congress.
[A II accounts from Dr. Living stone prove that
he is pushing his explorations with a commendable
and admirable spirit. One of his latest discoveries
known to the scientific public is a magnificent
lake, compared with which Lake Ngami is a mere
pond. It is called Lake Shirwa, and is located
one hundred miles up the River Shire, and about
two thousand feet above the level of the sea. It is
twenty or thirty miles wide, and between fifty and
sixty, long. He represents the district of the Shire
end Shirwa Valleys as abounding in cotton; he
never saw anywhere so much of it grown. The
River Shire is navigable to within thirty miles of
Lake Shirwa, and perhaps the time may come
when a profitable trade can be carried on in this
staple of this favored lend. The Doctor finds him
self unable to prosecute his explorations without a
more powerful steamer than the fragile one hitherto
employed on the Zambesi, and has appealed to his
friends in England for aid.
PARSON DROWNLOW AND sits Coerm—Among
the notables present at the late mass meeting at
Lynohburg, Va., called to express the opinion of
the people of that section in relation to the Har
por's Ferry raid, was the well-known Parson
Brownlow. his remarks on the occasion were
characteristic. A reporter, in noticing the speech,
says it WSJ "intensely Southern," and represents
the parson as saying he would rather be with the
South in Pandemonium than with the Abolitionists
in Heaven." The parson also remarked that he
intended to give his family Instructions not to
bury him in a Yankee coffin ; but if. in case of an
emergency, they should be forced to do so, that
they must leave both ends open, so that when the
devil or abolitionists came at one end he could
crawl out at the other.
DEATR ov Mae. DOANE.—Died, at Florence,
Italy, on Friday, November 11th, Eliza Greene
Doane, widow of the late Bishop of New Jersey.
Mrs. Doane, it is stated, never recovered from the
effects of the outrages of the Papal troops in the
assault on Perugia, where she and her eon's family
were stopping a few months since, during the early
part of the Italian disturbances.
"How TO PRESERVE THE UNION."—The Rich
mond Enquirer of the sth instant concludes an
article under the above heading as follows :
"There can be no peace for Virginia and the
South in the Union, as long as the question of
slavery is the foot-ball of political parties. Even
the Harper's Ferry invasion has failed to warn the
conservatives of the North of the dangerous fac
tion that disturbs their peace, as well as endang'bra
the Union. We have been charged with exaggo.
rating the importance of the Harper's Ferry affair
for party purposes. The cause of sectional ani
mosity must be elevated from the arena of po
lities, and submitted directly to the sovereign
States.
"State sovereignties must assemble in Conven
tion, and then and there agree upon future peace
in the Union. or deolde upon the most peaceable
mode of dissolution. No Southern Convention, but
a Convention of all the States having an equal vote,
should bo assembled, and in that Convention of the
States of the American Union the ultimatum of the
South should be laid down.
"Such a Convention would arouse the conserva
tism of the North; none but men of liberality of
opinion would be delegates, for upon its delibera
tions the future of the Union would depend. Once
convince the North that the slavery question is
tot a Subterfuge of party, but is a real issue involv
ing the Union, and all our rights will be imme
diately secured. The material advantages of the
Union will weigh with the North far more than
negrophilism. The Legislature of Virginia must
decide for a Convention either of the South or the
whole Union—the Ant will inevitably dissolve the
Un ; the latter may perpetuate it and tender it
cafeand mum to the •Soutii."

The publication of the monthly tables of i T rizia,
and exports, at this port, Is looked for with an
tereseproportioned to the !setae/tot the busiruter ,
The imports have 'reached an 'aggregate - that hrtut.
Preeedented. During the mouth of November Mi.
imports of dry goods alone emanated to $5.192,068, 4„
exceeding the imports in November last year $2,- .
218,813, and 33,777,870 larger than those of Newasa..
ber 1857. The importations of the eleven months
of the year are of the same hags proportions, as
you will perceive by the following figures :
1859, Imports since Jan. 1 ...... ..&.. $lO-1.395.7713
1858, do do 55,870,929
1857, do do 88,829,53 T '
There is every reason to suppeee, from these
amounts, that the aggregate importations of dry
goods at this port, for the year 1859,wi11 reach the -
sum of one hundred and ten million; of
Speaking of dry goods, I heard, a day or two sines,
that the sales of A. T. Stewart h Co win tits year
amount to wren millions of dollars, of which eight
hundred thousand dollars are profits.' -
Mr. Belmont, one of the °Guarded einem of the
Central Park, Lae proposed' to plate, at his inia ex
pense, in some eligible partllon &we grounds,
a bronze or marble slate(*) of his father-in-law, the
late Commodore M. C. Perry. The propositionles'
been accepted, and we shall soon have the gratiti- .
cation of seeing a fine produetion, which will
doubtless be the precursor of many other similar '
memorials of men, whose serviette to the country
entitle them to their country's remembrance. Mr.
Belmont's fine taste in art is abundantly attested
by his gallery of paintings=the most extensive
and valuable private collection, I am , seared, In
the country. It is fortunate that this initiatory
in the artistic embelliabinent of the monde,
should have been taken by - a- gentlemen whose
opulence and cultivated Ude iefil be eatishealith
nothing abort of the highest wieeUeuee.
I apprehend that the newspaper reflorts of the
John Brown fasting•and-payer meetings, Johan
Brown lemons, and John Brown powder-bnraings
in this city, are greatly exaggerated. The execu
tion of the old men was of course the Remotion of
.Friday ; but to-day it is among the "his beens.”
It will WWI cease to have prominence, etre among
the zealots who are eternally !emit:mar about other
people's affairs. It is creditable to the oonservative
feeling and good sense of this city and its suburbs, -
containing over a million of people, that only :
three or four hundred persons—a large portion of
them blaots—could be drummed up to fast, and
pray, and dug over the execution of a murderer. .
in looking at the names of those who figured at
these gatherings, not a aingla'one, excepting that
of Dr. Cheever, is recognised as being of the
slightest account in the business, literary, or reli
gions world. I was last evening eourersing with
a distinguished anti-slavery man, who bas written
much open the slavery question, and he ex - preened .
the utmost disgust at all these fanatical per
formances.
B avemeyer mayoralty ;took appreciated very
sensibly on Saturday, and is on the upward turn to

The present board of directory of the Iris Rail
road Company have taken a step that will add ma.

The musical critic of the Herald, who usually
gives the first announcements of what is to happen
in the operatic world, says that there is a move
ment on foot among some persons in this city, con
nected with musical and theatrical matter!, to
make a purse and engage Adelina Patti for fire
years, paying her $50,000 a year clear of all ex
penses.
During the absence of the Bilman-Strakoech
company at Philadelphia, a series of operatic per
formances will be given at Niblo's, at the regular
prices of that house. The company will include
Fresh)lini, Albertini, Beaucarde, Macaferri, Ar

The season will commence on Monday the 12th
