FOR SURVEYOR GENERAL, JOHN HOWE, OF FRANKI.IN COUNTV. Knox, Lnuman, Forney & Co's Bonvcntion. It will bo remembered that Forney & Co. called a Slate Convention to meet at Harris burg to day, April 13th, for the purpose ol endorsing the policy of Governor Packer and nominating a State ticket to suit their prin ciples and carry out their willful designs.— According to prerious notice this Conven tion is in session, dealing out severe blows at the principlesof that time-honored organ ization—the Democratic party. In some counties they held meetings and appointed delegates to meet in this bogus Convention, styling themselves Democrats ! Is not this preposterous? Men who have not voted the Democratic ticket for tho last half dozen years, and a number who never voted with the Democratic par-y in their lives, eal'ing a Democratic Stale Convention! All sound Democrats will differ widely with those men and their perfidious movements; they can not aid them in accomplishing their wicked designs. No doubt there will be a grand outpour ing of revohcrs from all corners of lite State, for where is the spot but what has its dis appointed renegades, and they too of every hue. There can be found actively engaged in this revengeful bogus Convention, anti- Lecomptonites, Hack Republicans, Know- Nothings, and some fiw treacherous democrats Should the signers to the call for this Con vention Irotn Schuylkill county be present, tliey w ill add quite a colored and interesting feature to the Convention. This would lend to verify the old adage that "buds of a feath er flock together," and be a lair exposition of tbe material which compose this bogus Convention; but still they have impudence enough to call it a Democratic Convention ! Catch birds with chuff, will you ? We are inclined to think it a Disorganizes' Con vention, and called tc form a Republican ticket, which will be quite a saving of time and money for the regular Republican parly. Four Murderers Hung ut Baltimore. On tbe Bth instant lour young men in the prime o( life suffered the death penalty up on the gallows in the city of Baltimore.— Henry C. Gambrtll lor the murder of Police man Benton ; Marion Cropps lor tbe murder of Policeman Rigdon; Peter Corrie, an ac complice of Cropps; and Stephens, alias Oyphus, (colored) for the murder of a negro named King. Tito execution was witnessed by at least thirty thousand people Irotn the city and ■country. Two of the convicts, Gambrill and Stephens, protested their innocence to the last. Cropps confessed his crime, and said lie had repented of it; Corrie, bis accom plice, said nothing. The ciukwas never known to have been more crowded with strangers, and every train that went there was laden with pas sengers. The Philadelphia train of that morning consisted of twenty-six cars filled to the utmost capacity. ■lt is stated that the friends of young Cam brill exerted every effort with Gov. Hicks to get him to commute the sentence, but with out effect The mother of Corrie, accom panied by her sister and daughter, draped in the deepest mourning, also called upon his Excellency, and with tears and entreat ies, which only a mother and sister are pre pared to give, and with all the eloquence of maternal heart-gushings, asked him if there was no possibility of having the sen tence commuted. But this was all of no avail. The Governor with marked firmness and with great kindness and courtesy, slated that he had always the feelings ol human ity, and could feel for human woe with a heart full of sympathy, and with tears flow ing down his cheeks, but that the law had been most grossly violated and its mandates must he observed, and that he had nojnsl grounds of action otherwise than to see the law enforced. The law has been enforced and they have suffered its penalty. There were some friends of the negro before the Governor, but they had very little to say in liis behalf. The proceedings before and during the ■execution were very affecting, and intense excitement and sadness prevaded the whole community. This day will be a memorable one in the history of Baltimore BAYARD TAYLOR.— There has been a rumor extensively circulating among our exchanges stating that this distinguished writer had re fused seven thousand dollars from the propri etors of the New York Mercury, lor the ex clusive use of his pen in their behalf. This ■ is the substance of a rumor which lias bceu going the rounds, which we will lend our aid in correcting, by stating in the most positive manner, that Mr. Bayard Taylor has accepted their proposal, and that they are just on the eve of announcing the first of the series of interesting papers from his graphic pen. llis inimitable travel-sketches will introduce the Mercury into thousands of families, that have perhaps heretofore been strangers to it. Feven Thousand Dol lars is no trifle to pay; but the New York Mercury however, approaching as it already does, we learn, to an edition of a quarter of a million, can well afford it. Vive le cash box!

The Nicklcs Affair. That the crime of inconstancy in husband lor wife, and particularly in tho wife, should be regarded by all civilized communities, and, indeed, by communities not civilized, with so much more horror and loathing than other crimes the effect of which is far great er positive injury, is one of those inexplica ble mysteries which absolutely set explana tion at defiance. The cold, but somewhat philosophical solution given by Dr. Johnson, \vill not do. Our nature revolts at it. John son says the great injury which results is, that a man may never know his own chil dren: while the mother necessarily does.— This he gives to show more particularly that the crime is of greater enormity in woman. But who of us would weigh this as a reason under circumstances such as those Sickles was placed in? What man in the hell of cuekohlom stops to make calcu lations so cold as these? The despair which comes to the heart of a man who lias fondly and doatmgly loved his wife, when he dis covers that she Itas defiled herself no! him, is so absolutely blasting that reason has little or no influence over his conduct, lie docs not stop to inquire hoxo it is and for sooth the inquiry would be a vain one, but lie Allows lie is ruined; gone, gone, forever! But bore is the mystery of mysteries. In the eye of the world there is no such de filement of man. That he should prove un true, may cause great grief to his wife; but a little contrition on the part of the litis band, a few caresses and a few promises and all is as before. Besides, there is no finger of scorn pointed at the wife. The world forgives as eornplaeantty as she, and, as they say when a steamboat blows up, no blame attaches in any quarter. This may be wrong but it is nevertheless fact ; atal this is why the stroke is so with ering to Mrs. Sickles ; and this is why the world will think she is as much to blame as the unfortunate Key. It is argued in the hearts of all men, that one having no object upon which to lavish his or her affections, is less criminal in indulging in an illigiti mate love, than one who has by a solemn vow selected a sole repository for these af fections. Key was free to love, under re strictions, where ho listed. Mrs Sickles was foresworn. She was a sealed wife ! These are the views of the world Now, under these views, how far was Sickles jus tifiable in killing Key ? Or was lie justifi able at all ? 'l'he-e questions must be consid ered in connection with the law on the sub ject. The law justifies the killing of anoth er in defence of one's own life. The de fenders of Sickles ask, if a man is justified in killing another in defence of his life, is lie not justified in killing that other in de fence of that which is dearer than life—his honor? The answer is, the killing of Key could not have been in defence of his hoi or, because Sickles was already dishonored, and that, necessairly, it must have been a vindic- i live killing. So much for that part of the wotld's argument which is based, upon the legal argument. Another popular argu ment is, that the law affords no adequate punishment for offences like this—that the law places it in the category of ordinary wrongs, and prescribes a penalty graded to correspond with the offences with which it is classed, while in reality it is the great est of all wrongs. Now this may bo so; but if so, why should society see proper to be come revolutionary on every separate and distinct occasion ? why not right the law, if it is wrong, instead of clamoring every ninth day in favor of pnva'e vindication of what are properly considered public wrongs? Why make a mockery of Justice and of Law by farcically arraigning and trying a man whom the country, to which he goes, on tri al, have already agreed to acquit ? Until a good reason for such conduct, on the part ol "the country," is given, we. need go no farther with the argument. A proper adherance to, and vindication of the laws are all that can save us frotrr anarchy. No man under any circumstances, can with safety to genuine liberty, take the law in his own hands. That is such an encroachment npon public and private rights as every good citi zen should frown upon. If the laws are wrong, lot them be amended. Until then, let them be enforced. Next week we will give a full synopsis of the case of Sickles. His trial is now pro gressing. The evidonce for the prosecution closed the 7th inst. The next morning Mr Graham opened for the defence. The excite ment continues. We would have given a synopsis this week, hut upon reflection thought best to defer it till next week, so that it could he more nearly perfect. CONSERVATORY JOURNAL.— We have recciv- i ed the first number of a new paper bearing ] this title, published in Boston, Mass., devo- j ted to establishing a Massachusetts Conser- ! vatory of Arts, Science, and Historical Rel-j ics. This work is ably endorsed by the names of near ten thousand signers of me- j morials to the Legislature in aid of litis j plan, the greater portion of whose names j can be seen in the first number of this jour- j nal. Every one of these signers has thus signified and declared bis or her readiness to co operate in the good work. Conse quently it cannot help but succeed. The Journal is printed upon most excellent pa per, and presents a very creditable appear ance. It also exhibits considerable ability in the editorial department. THE NEW YORK WEEKLY has found its way into our sanctum, and probably for a puff more than any thing else. It might "slip up" on that, the worst kind of a way, | by receiving a soulli handed one. Well, wo'll ' glance over its columns a moment or two. On the first page we find a story entitled, "One-Eyed Saul; or, the Tory League of Seven; written by the well-known author, J. H. Robinson. The paper is in octavo form, I and of a good size. It is an illustrated sheet, i both in a comical and historical way, to suit | the matter published. It makes a snug ap pearitce and bespeaks a hearty support. Its reading matter is first class. A.J. William son, publisher, New York. Terms, $2 per annum, in advance.

Ho they ctirnk at all ? lias any writer upon subject of natural history enter tained us with a development of the fact, that the whole race should be calculated by "copper-heating" inebriates, diners on cor ned-beef, and' people, generally, whose overnight excesses superinduce a desire to indulge in draughts in the morning? Why should such folks perpetually give as an excuse lor their little weakness that they are "dry a* a fish "? Fish, we suspect, are never in that arid condition. The character of their dwelling-place forbids it, in one sense: and their cold blood and physical organization emtio,we, repudiates it itt the other sense. Fish are sensible, well-be haved creatures. '1 hey are considered "scaly" by the world ; and some of them, of course, merit that reproachful appella tion. They cannot help it. Hut as a body, they are a sober branch of the universe, and should not be stigmatized by custom with a character which is wholly foreign to their nature, and impossible as to their habits. We take up the cudgels for lite fish ! SOCIAI. VIEW OF POLlTlCS— Political life has charms for a certain class of mankind only. It might he invidious to describe this class ; but the orator, Burke, did it very decidedly when he said .hat,in his pub lic character, he found himself, as it were, in a Noah's ark, " with a few men and a great many beasts !" Whoever has min gled in a political assembly, has had occa sion to recognize the same feeling of as sociation, whether he has expressed it or not. Nowhere else is man's selfishness so thoroughly exposed. Nowhere else is his arrogance so boldly demonstrated. It is enough to disgust good taste with all ambi tion and all fellowship! THE WASHINGTON UNION, of Tuesday, NN liuonces that Gen. George W. Bowman, Superintendent of Public Printing, lias be come sole proprietor of that journal,-and will take full possession of the same on the 1 ltli of this month. General Bowman was for many years connected with the Democratic press in this Stale ; he has proved himself an effi cient and honest public officer; his politics are thoroughly Jacksonian and National : and we cannot doubt that under his auspi ces, The Union will prove worthy of the confidence of all Democrats, North and South, East and West, who are true to the principle of the Consiitulion. Too LAIIGB. —The editor of the Easton Sentinel says he has an exchange list of 200'.

We published yelterday (March 15th) a very strange and a very sad story from Wash ington. With the retollection of Sir Cress well Cresswell's clietts belore our eyes -,ve are not about to fly Li to paroxysms of vir tuous indignation because, in the United State", as is sometimes' frail, and man/generally vindictive. Such things are of uM agxs and of all countries, and this Washington storv about Mr. and Mrs. Sickles and Mr Key might, at any giv en season, find its counterpait in the scan dalous chronicles of any of the European capitals—London included. It is true, in deed, that the husband's vengeance was swift, savage, and scvero. Such is not the way in which such injuries are resented in , England, but according to the civilization of [ n country, so is the fashion of its revenge. ! One nation uses a stiletto, another a revolv er, another an old flint-gun, a fourth a bar rister. We employ the fourth weap- | on; in the United States the second comes familiarly to the hand of an outraged hus band. The remarkable part of this occur rence, then, as far as we are concerned, is the form which the husband's vengeance assumed. Had such a story as this happened in Eng land, and had the husband in due course put his case into the hands ot the family solicitor, and had that useful personage, shll I in due course, feed counsel and brought it , before the Judge Ordinary,we should scarce- | 1 ly have given the report a second glance.— 1 Deny it who may, the truth is that habit I renders all persons but the immediate fami- |' I), friends, and acquaintances of the parlies to such suits, profoundly indifferent to the matter. We can hardly say if equal apathy J ' exists on the other side of the Atlantic, when I ' injuries of this class are avenged in. the ter- j ' rible fashion of this Washington tragedy.— J At first sight, the fact that an injuried bus- i 1 band at once rushes to the conclusion that j' nothing but the blood of the adulterer can be accepted as an expiation for his wrong j would seem to argue a higher conception of i the marriage bond than the one which oh- j tains among ourselves. We cannot how- ! ever, at the same time, forget that American j hands are swift to shed blood for h juries of a lar inferior class to those of tvhich we are | speaking. , ' | The iorm, then, of Mr. Sickles' revenge j was according to the fashion of his ngo and i his country. We think it probable that had . he been an Englishman, living in London, he would have acted otherwise. Take it ' however, as yott may, the story is a lament able one. In England much interest will he felt in it. from the fact that the unfnrtu- \ nate young wife—and surely she is most unfortunate!—was known in the social cir cles of London. When Mr. Buchanan was ' minister over here,her husband,Mr.Sickles, • was the secretary of legation. He was ac companied by his wife, a child in years,and still more a child in appearance. She ex cited interest in every one who met her in those days, and many an English friend will grieve at the termination of her brief career. The facts of the case may be knnwn in a very few words—indeed, we had rather tnake as short a story of it as possible, for it is not one upon which '.lie mind can rest without the most painful feelings. Mr. Sick les was secretary of legation hern in Lon don, hut on the election of Mr. Buchanan to I the Presidency he returned to the U. Stales and obtained the Democratic nomination for Congress irom one of the metropolitan districts of New York. In due course lie went to Washington, taking with him his wife. Now, thqre was a certain Mr. Philip I Barton Key, the nephew ot the Chief Jus- I tice of die United States who was the Unit- j ed States Attorney for the District of Colum bin. In the discharge of Ins duties he also was at Washih'glon, and thus an intimacy | arose between him and Mrs Sickles, which i seems speedily to have assumed a criminal ' ! character. Whether it was that her husband ; became distasteful to her, or that Mr. Key 1 possessed attractions which extinguished in her mind all sentiments ot her position, all feeling of duty, it must, we fear, be ad- ; mitted iliat the young wife became what ] she was not when she was known and ad mired here in London. Suspicion soon dog ged the stops of thy young wile and para- j I mour. As is usual in such cases, the hns-1 bnn.i was the last person to hear the history of his own dishonor. The connection be- ! tween Mrs. Sickles and Mr. Key, if we are ) to give exact dates, began in April of last j year—was continued through last winter,and j renewed again at Washington during the i present session of Congress. Impunity made j them bold; they had been discovered, Mr. Key hired a house, whore they used to meet. ! When her husband was away from homo, Mr. Key would pass before the house, j wnve a handkerchief, and site would hurry : I out to meet him at their usual place of as 1 signation. But now comes the terrible part of the story. On Friday, the 25tli of February, Mr. Sick les was entertaining the Presidentof the U. S.at dinner—heat one end of the table, Mrs. Sickles at the other. He knew nothing ol the matter in hand. In the midst of the dinner a ] letter was delivered to him which revealed j to him the history of his wife's shame and of; his own dishonor. At the time he could, of i course, say nothing and do nothing. There j sat his young wife opposite him, and by her I side the President. When the guests went i away he began to consider grimly with him self what course he should adopt. That night he nppears to have said or done noth ing, but the early part of the next day was spent in a careful investigation of the facts. When he had acquired a reasonable degree of certainly, Mr. Sickles taxed his wife with her guilt. She screamed out that she was "betrayed and lost," hut at length admitted the truth of the accusation So far all was clear; the question was how this grievous injury should be avenged 1 The account we have received from Washington states that in the course of that afternoon, whilst 1 Mr. Sickles was considering with himself what ought to be done, and was sitting at his window, he saw Mr. Key approaching hishonse, and making the appointed signal to the lady whom he had brought to this ter rible grief. Unable to master his emotion, the husband seized upon what weapons were near. These constituted a complete arsenal or arinony—we question if many English gentlemen could, in a moment of indignation, suddenly stretch out their hands as Mr. Sickles did, and find ready two single barrelled pistols and a revolver. Having placed these weapons in his pockets, lie sallied forth, and as Mr. Key was extending his hand lor a friendly grasp Mr. Sickles exclaimed, "Now, villain, you must die !" and fired the first pistol at his enemy, but without effect. Mr. Key hurled an opera glass in his face, and a deatli-grapple com menced, the one man trying to master the other's arm, the other endeavoring to dis charge his second pistol. Mr. Sickles pre vailed, and his second shot brought his en emy to the ground. So maddened with passion, however, was lie that even when , lie had killed Mr. Key he discharged a bar rel of his revolver into ihc dead man's head, and, with an oath, rendered himself up to the officers of justice. Such are the leading facts of this misera ble story, which we record with unfeigned sorrow, and which we are sure will be read with much commiseration by all persons in England who had any knowledge of the ac tors in the tragedy. ORIENTAL WANDERINGS. ARAB GRATITUDE.—THE I.IGHT OF THE HAREM During a sttccessfttl medical career of more than twenty years; in the course of which he has visited every quarter of the globe, it may well be supposed that Profes-or Hollo way has been lite recipient of many distin guished marks of honor and confidence.— As the originator of a system ol treatment which has swept over the world with a force and rapidity that, in litis enlightened age, arc the prsogatives of Truth, his fame eve rywhere preceded him. Even in Traversing Arabia, some years ago, he found that his name and discoyeries were u ell known to to lite Sheika of the various tribes,and depu tations of Arabs met him at various points of his journey,soliciting the great 'llakin,"(their name for physician) to visit their tents and administer to the sick. At every encamp ment lie was received with most profound respect, which deepened into absolute rev erence us the effect of his wonderful reme dies was w'messed by these children of the wilderness. Some of his adventures among them were quite of a romantic cast. One of their chiefs, a majestic old Bedouin, whose favorite daughter had been for years affected with a scorbutic disease, was so carried away with rapture at her recovery under Professor Holloway's hands, that, in a burst of gratitude, he offered him half his flocks and herds, if lie would remain with the tribe and he a guest for iiie. While visiting Constantinople, on his re turn home, lie had an audience of the Sul tan, and was requested to prescribe tor a fa vorite odalisque in Iho imperial harem, who had been pronounced incurable by the Turkish doctors. Site was a Circassian slave of surpassing beauty, and realized i:i Iter form and face the description of "Young Nourmahel" as described in Lalla Bookli.— Her disease was dyspepsia, aggravated, no doubt, by the enntii, created by a sequester ed and monotonous life. Within a month, however, Professor Holloway's great medi cines, with tlio aid of daily exercise in the gardens of Seraglio, accomplished a com plete cure,and lie subsequently received an autograph letter from the Sultan, thanking him in the warmest terms, for restoring to health the "Light of his I-larem." No soon er was the news of this cure noised through Constantinople, than the lodgings of the ''Great Frank Pltyscian" were literally be sieged by dyspeptic Pashas and bilious Beys, and from the period of his departure to the present time, the demand upon his agents in Constantinople lor the remedies that bear his name haaeontinually increased. —Dr. Livingstone's Duvets. THE first Agricultural Society formed in this country was the "Philadelphia Society for Promting Agriculture," established in 1795. The first cattle show held in this country, was held in I'itlsfield, Mass , in ! Oct., 1810, and from this era sprang the sys tem of agricultural societies and shows, as they exist at present, in most parts of the United States. A MODEL FLOUR INSPECTOR.—An ex change, in speaking of the funny way they have of inspecting flour in Philadelphia, gives the following words of a reliable gen tleman, who had been conversing on this subject : An up country miller told me that the meanest lot of black flour he ever sent to Philadelphia passed inspection and was branded " extra," whereas a fine lot of white wheal flour which followed was "scratched." A shipper told me that among a lot that he had undergoing inspection, five barrels were condemned. The same evening he re aranged the heads, and next day had another inspection of the flour, when it was branded extra.
