Tn'orjHAi'itioAï, E krorb.—We bad
a little articlâ ou Ulis subject a few
days ago, which laigbt convince the
uninitiated that the difficulty in de
tecting error« of the press is much
greater than they are inclined to be
lieve. The npcliing may be correct,
and yet a wrong word is very apt to
escape discovery. Biute we spoke of
the Glasgow publishing house, wit
have heard of a singular misprint in
an edition of Shakspeare's Merchant
of Venice, Aot III, Scene II, where
I'ortia speaks of
"young Alclden, when lie did redeem
The Virgin tribute paid by bowling Troy.' -
The printer (an ardent Whig per
haps) had it ''howling Tory " The
gontleinau who detected this ludi
crous blunder was a victim ot a wôrpo
one in his own case. In briefly enu
merating the prose works of Pope, in
a shurL biographical notice which he
had compiled for an edition of bis po
ems, he named his "Memoirs of a Par
ish Priôfct," but when the proof came
before hiin he was horrified to lind
that the compositor had set it "Me
moirs of a I'aint Brush."— St. Louis
lit publican.
P roposition for a C onvention of
thf. Southern Pkopi.k .—The Mem
phis Commercial recently contained a
propositon lor holding a convention
of delegates from the Southern States,
to declare the sentiments of their con
stituents upon their late and present
relations to the General (iovernrrieul—
their opinions and determinations re
specting their duties as citizens, arid
their fixed resolution to give a faith
ful support to the constitution and (he
national administration.
The Richmond Whig says ; "This
proposition.strikes un as exceedingly
appropriate and important, in view of
the present condition of public affairs.
It is urged as necessary to disabuse
the public mind of the North of the
erroneous impressions made upon it
respecting the disposition of the South,
by gross misrepresentation, exaggern»
tion, and all those means of deception
resorted to by vicious and unprinci
pled newspaper correspondents, to
mislead the convictions of the Nor
thern people.
Looking i<ok a Cki.khtiai, Vihttob.
—Biela's Comet is expected soon to
make its appearance, as it is now on
its way to its perihelion. It is not
yet neat; enough to be visible, being
not nearer the earth than about 11,
000,000 miles. On the first, day of
November next it will be close to the
bright (Alpha Pegasi) Markab, one of
the four bright stars forming the well
known square of Pegasus. It then
pursues a southerly course, crossing
the celestial equator about the middle
of December. It then crosses its old
path in 1840, near where it separa
ted in two comets. At the end of
February its distance from the earth
will bo fess than 20,000,000 of miles.
This cornet's period is 6$ years.
E mancipation in R ussia .—Sunday,
March 17,1861, will always be a
memorable day in the history of Rus
sia, as that on which 20,000,000 of
serfs were presented with a decree
which made them freemen. This vast
slave population was in the hands of
aristocracy of about 100,000, less than
1,500 of whom owned 1,000 each.
They are required to allow thaeman
cipated peasants the dwellings which
th«y occupied, and the ground upon
which they stand will be legally grau
tod to them upon the payment of cer
tain rates,. As fast as the late serfs
caa raise money enough to pay these
dues they become landed proprietors.
The Scarcity of Men .—The Fred
oricksburg (Virginia) Ledger has the
following paragraph :
At a marriage here a few evenings
since, when the minister made per
sonal application of that awful ques
tion, "Will you take this man whom
you hold in your hand, &c."? the
bride, with a graceful inclination of
the hefcd, 'midst a profusion of blushes,
ejaculated, *"/ thank you .sir'' ?
Thera are already nearly three huo
<lr«<i practicing physicians i& Indiana
polis, and more coming.
agrThe Times special says : There
is the best authority for saying that
Alexander II. Stephens and J. H.
Reagan now confined in Fort Warfen,
in writing to their friends at the South
express their most liberal views res
peeting recortMrtieiion, of the negro
rare, and the future of the ' South.
They urge that the agricultural system
of the South must be revolutionized.
That the negroes being a large, per
manent element iu the population of
the South must be so treated as to in
crease his self-respect and manhood—
Iiis freedom must be cheerfully ac
ceeded and the negro educated for
the intelligent wielding of that polit
ical power which the progress of
events promise to put him in posses
sion of.

hearty welcome of all who come South
