KF Sometime ago, the wife of a man
living near Georgetown, Del., left her
husband and took up with a younger man.
The next day the husband called upon
his rival, when the two men sat, down on
a log and calmly adjusted the difference,
the husband accepting seven dollars and
a dog for his claim and right to his for
mer wife. What a philosopher !
03" Last Friday night wo listened to
the lectures delivered by Messrs. W. C.
McQuiston and J. II. Smith. We have
been requested to publish one of these
lectures, and would comply with tho re
quest, but tho space it would occupy,
could, according to our notion, bo filled
with matter far more entertaining to the
general reader. Beside, it would be
strewing a partiality incompatible with
our nature, and, unprecedented iu our
journalistic history. Dr. J. Y. Thomp

Awfi'L Accident. From tho Mem
phis Avalanche we learn that the steam
er St. Nicholas, Capt. McMullen, from
St Louis, exploded her boilers at Island
60, under full headway, at 10 o'clock on
Sunday night April 24th, 1S59, by
which nearly sixty lives were lost, and
the boat with a large and valuable cargo
entirely destroyed. The destruction of
life by this accident was, perhaps, great
er, in proportion to the number of souls
on board, than was tho case on the occa
eion of the memorable explosion of the
Pennsylvania, -which occurred near the
same place in tho Spring of last year,

THK KOlITHfcltN CONVENTION.
On the (second Monday in this month
this Convention will bold its unnual meet
ing in Vicksburg. Many affect to look
upon these conventions as traps to invei
gle patriotic men into positions danger
ous to the best interests of the Country ;
or, as fountains for the dissemination of
sentiments disloyal to the Union. It
cannot, plausibly, be denied that in such
assemblages there will be demagogues
whose sole olijoct is self advancement,
regardless of the public weal. Yet at
the same time all must admit that in them
will also bo men whose intentions are
pure, and whoso objects are to discuss
measures most conducive to the advance
ment of the interests of our section.
The interchange of opinions on topics of
political economy always contributes to
the evolition of principles and combina
tions beneficial to a Country.
The discussion of the project of re
opening tho African Slave Trade con
suincd tho time of the lust, and will prob
ably be brought before the present con
volition. v e cannot imagine any good
tnat will result lrom carrying into prac
tice the theories of those long-winded,
visionary dreamers, who have hopes fur
the South only in the reopening of this
heathenish traffic. It is immoral, irre
ligious and illegal. We think the mem
bers of this convention can restrict them
selves to the discussion of subjects which
will tend to the enrichment of our
section socially as we 1 as intellectuallv
v
without gassing about this slave trade.
Independent commerce and home edu
cation are objects, tho development, of
which, ought to be f .stored and sustained.
These, and not such subjects as divide
and distract the public mind, demand the
judicious deliberations of patriotic men. J
We hope the present convcniioii will ig
nore the existence of the slave trade pro
ject; or at least pay to it only the re
spect which its importance, as an idle
dream of idler minds, deserves. It
will be time enough five years hence to
discu- s its expediency. In other respects
wo bid the Southern convention god
speed.
The Co.nfesmox okMrs. Sicklkp.
Tho following notice, from the Richmond
Dispatch, of the confession of Mrs. Sick
les a document which carries on its face
evidence of having been most carefully
and craftily prepared so fully expresses
our idea of that precious piece of villainy,
that we adopt it entire :
We suppose no one can have read the
confession of Mrs. Sickles, with its revol
ting particularities of detail, without be
ing satisfied that it was not the produc
tion of that unhappy woman, vIio.mii her
agony of spirit, would have said all she
bad to say in tho briefest and most plain
tive terms, but a statement dictated to
ber by tno " insano" gentleman who shot
Mr. Key, and who preserves such excel
lent " method in his madness." Is it like
ly that a broken-hearted creature, or any
other creature wilh common sense or
common sensibility, Would have descri
bed with minuteness the various kinds of
dresses she wore to the place of meeting,
a thing which was wholly irrational,
which would neveroccur to her own mind,
except the crafty " lunatic" who wished
to indentify her by the dress with the
woman who visited the house of ill-repute
with .Mr. Key? Would Mrs. Sickles
have ever voluntarily subscribed her
name to that confession, Teresa JJagliofi,
instead of Teresa Sickles? The whole
production reads like a succession of ans
wers given to a searching cross-examination,
rather than the voluntary confession
of an humbled and agonized spirit. Mrs.
Sickles is perhaps a depraved, as she is
certainly a fallen woman, but she would
have to fall us deep as the fallen angels,
when, "nino days long,, they dropped
from the battlements of Heaven, before
she would get down among tho moral
" dead men," where the author of her
" confession" lies festering.
The truth of this seems to us to be self
evident. No woman not accustomed for
years to the impure influences of the low
est haunts of vice could have written that
gross confession gross in every respect,
composition and all. There is not a line
in it that is womanly ; and it is a proper
cause of regret that the confession ever
saw the light of typo und paper. The re
publication of it is an offence against pub
Ik decency.
St. tfc O. 1UIMCOAD.
Last Thursday, Judge Brown. Jhe effi
cient President of this road addressed
the citizens of. this place and vicinity.
His speech in the main, whs an appeal
for money to build tho road from West
Point, the present terminus, to Okolona.
He says tho work cannot go on unless
the sum of fifty thousand dollars is raised.
This is a small sum, too small to pay for
the wear and tear of wagons and teams
in one year's hauling; a'ul in our sec
tion, where wealth and fertile lands are
the greatest boasts, it certainly can and
.mi st be raised. It is useless to sit, and
like modern Mahomets wait for tho niotiu
tain to come to us. It has not tho means
We have the means, and must go to the
mountain. Our most sagacious men ac
knowledge the vital interest we have in
the completion vf this work, and why
substantial aid is so persistently refused
we cannot imagi e. The folly of "wait
ing t r something to turn up," has a
striking example in the policy our people
seem determined to pursue in regard to
Ibis road. This apathetic "wailing" is
a discredit to tho name and a disgrace to
tho public spirit, of Mississippiuns. To
the citizens of this town it is needless to
enumerate the advantages that Would re
sult from the success of this effort. All
know that the very salvation of the place
depends upon the completion of the road,
and still they hesitate. " Learn to labor
aud to wait," is an honored adage. Our
citizens have waited; now is the time to
la nun. It is a general request that all
who wish to see somo means devised for
raising the tumls, meet in Okolona next
Saturday. We hope every planter, every
merchant, and every mechanic, who have,
or over expect to have, money enough to
take a Jiond, will attend.

04rA female away up North thus dis
coursed) on tho Sickles tragedy :
" It is strange how differently our sex
es are constituted. Woman survive
these dis a greeablo developments every
day. If Mr. Sickles had hired this assig
nation house and there met Mrs. Swizzles,
do you think Mrs. Sickles would have
gone out to shoot the faithless crinoline
who had stolen her husband ? No sir !
Woman do no such foolish thinjrand whv ?
Because, if we are virtuous we have con
fidence in our virtue, ano we feel that no
dereliction of the husband can or ought
to affect the virtue of the wife, But sup
pose on some fiue Sabbath morning, all
tho women in Washington who suspect
their truant lords, should sally out.
sword and pistols by their sides," to
chastise the dear creatures who had sto-
cn their affections would not this mark
an interesting epoch in history ?"
Well would'nt it !
AnoirT Furious' Maui; v I No. Read
ing the billowing involuntarily we ex.
claimed " Does'nt. a fellow, 'specially
an Editor, run a great risk in marrying ?"
Any bow we've concluded not to many
until " ue" can !
" Editors should, if possible, choose la
dies of correct literary -taste but, by ail
means aroid authoresses, or they may
throw their caps at domestic comforts.
An Editor should be more careful in se
lecting a partner than any other; for, if
he gets a scold she will sour his rtaturally
excitable disposition, and thus prevent
him from pursuing his occupation with
any pleasure profit or reputation. If he
gets a careless wife, she will disturb the
economy of his sanctum, curl her hnir
with bis manuscripts, and laHgh'at his
vexation. And if lie gets a tasteless, ig
norant wife, they will mutually despise
each other and probably do worse.
His choice should be, a neat, domestic,
well-bred, lady-like woman ; for with such
a partner (if he has tho necessajy abili
ties) he is almost certain to make his way
to fame and fortune. Indeed, with an
ambitious editor, a good wife is half the
battle ; but I would add that with an ed
itor of much imagination, beauty is an
object Uiat should not be overlooked ; for
it will add considerably to his happiness
and exertions, to have a wife who will
appear to him, as it were, the oiuhody
nient and inspiration of his ow n bright
creations.
Our Duh.iU-u. M. L. Bonham, M.
C. from South Carolina, in a speech de
livered at Edgefield, on the 4th ult.. after
pointing out the dangers which surround
the South, thus declares what is her duty :
" If our whole people, democrats, whigs
and know-nothings, will lay aside their
differences andunite ; if wo shall resolve
together to avoid all distracting issues
new or old ; we can then make the Dem
ocratic parly of the country feel that we
intend to have our lights in the Union or
out of it and then there may be hope.
But failing in this what should we do ?
Stand still and have the chains of slaves
forged upon us ? "never." Some move
ment then must be begun, if not by all,
by some portion of tho slave States at
every hazard. Wo have the examble of
the Old Thirteen to cheer us, in tho his
tory of their movement towards tho war
of the revolution. That movement was
not a simultaneous one ; and so may ours
not be. Like them, some two or more
of the slave States may bo compelled to
take the lead, and like them, all the rest
will follow and consummate the great
achievement, But in the initiation of
such a movement, there are two or three
steps it will be rifjit for us to take.
First, let us drop the existing Compact.
Secondly, let us form a new Compact
with new guards for our safety and equal
ity in the Union. If this be not accepted,
then what is left but to fling to the breeze
the banner of a southern Republic ?"

It is eminently desirable that so great
a power as that of journalism should be
wielded in the Interest of Christian mor
als, and under a constant sense of the re
sponsibility which religious obligation In
volves. That tho daily journals of this
city have improved immensely In this re
spect within tho last ten years, as well as
in the enterprise, ability and general cour
tesy, no one who has given the subject
any attention can doubt; and it is equal
ly certain that, with the improved taste
and increased culture of the mass of the
people, this improvement will contnue.
The daily press may not bo all it should
be; but the same deed characterizes
every other profession and every other
human in.-iituiioiis. All we can reason
ably expect to ask is that its tendencies
should lie iu the right direction that it
should bo growing heller instead of
worse; and we think this may be very
confidently asserted of tho daily press ol
this city, taken as a whole. In all the
respect able journals due regard is uniform
ly paid to the religious observances and
feelings of all denominations a fair pro
portion of space is given to religious in
telligence lac obligations ot Christian
duty are fully recognized, even if not al
ways fully met, and in their discussion of
public affairs Christian morality is almost
uniformly accepted as the basis of their
judgements aud opinions. Wo will be
lieve this to be true ot a largo portion of
t;ie uuny newspapers ot this city, and it
is nocouiing more anil more true ot tlieiu
all.
Exception is taken, we are aware, to
the character ol much of the inlelii cnci
that is published to the details given of
murders, police cases, divorce trials, etc.
In part, this complaint is debt less just
and tiiere is room and need for improve
ment in nearly ail our newspapers iu this
respect, liut it is i ot lair to overlook
the reason of this fault, nor to ph.ee the
responsibility of il too exclusively upon
thel 'less. Jt belongs mainly to the com
munity. A newspaper must bo publish
ed Upon I usiness principles: it enn oi.lv
exist as il. is sustained by the coinmnnily.
It is very easy to sneer at a publisher tor
.-eeking priui.uily to increase his circula
tion ; but. it would be just as sensible to
sneer at a merchant for endcavering to
extend his trade, or a physician for seek
ing to enlarge his practice. The public
support is absolutely essential to a news
paper, unless for party or other purposes
of their own, individuals are willing to
contribute the money which it requires ;
and in thai case it becomes a missionary
work instead of a business operation.
Now, it is a clear and undeniable fact,
that 'he great body of the people want a
newspaper for the news. They want to
k.mw what is going on iu the world, and
it is the business of their newspaper to
tell them. If it does, they .will take it ;
if not, they will stop it and take another.
Aim lamentable as the fact is, it never
theless is a fact, that crime, in its various
forms and successive stages, fills a vei v
large page in tho daily "history of the
world and cannot be ignored without ig
noring a very large and a very important
part of the current intelligence. Equally
true is it that nine persons out of ten in
every community read the narratives of
great crimes with much more avidilv
than they read accounts of benevolent
and religious movements, or any of the
more ordinary and less exciting incidents
ol tlaily life. I be tragic element, in life
as iu fiction, has a strong hold upon the
imagination, and very few person, what
ever their moral and religious character,
are insensible to its fascination.
