As a noble, wholesouled, honorable man, aa a public spirited ottiaen, aa an honest counsellor, and as a faithful and Mlf-aaorlflclng friend, who kn«w no gall#, and suspected none In others—he was far above tbe ordinary standard of modern politlcisne.

We yesterday printed a proclamation from Governor Baker, oalling tbe attention of tbe people of tbe State to tbe late dlaoster on the fair grounds, and asking that collections be taken up all over the State for the benefit of the sufferers. We would say no word that woft Id tend to atop that ontflow of charity and benevolence so characteristic of our people; and vet it aeems to us that this le hardly such a case as Justifies the Governor In leaning the proclamation he has done. True, the loss of Ufa waa great, but there have been railroad and steam boat accidents In which the number of tbe killed and wounded has been greater, but we never heard It suggested that the Governor should issue hie proclamation oalling upon the people of the whole State to contribute to their

relief.

The boiler which exploded at the fair grounds belonged to an Indianapolis manufactorlng firm, aud Us performance*, If they were of a praiseworthy character, would have redounded to the benefit of that city. It would seem, therefore, no more than proper, tbe nault having proved unfortunate, that tbe people of the Capital city should at least care for those of their own cldxens wbo suffered by the explosion. Whatever is done outside should be the voluntary offerings of the benevolent, and not made nnder a sort of official command from the

The entire colored portion of onr population are itgog at the rdinor of a most extraordinary o<;currenco which happened In connection with the recent maruer on Ashley river. The readers of the Courier will remember that on Monday, September 28, tbe body of a negro man, horribly mutilated, was found floating in Ashley Tlver. It will also be remembered that, not having been identified. It wae buried on tbe subsequent morning; that two negroes irorn James Island were arrested «>u suspicion of having committed the horrid deed, and that on Friday the wife «.f the murdered man came to the city to Identify tbe body. It is stated that when the body bad been disinterred the two aoeoMd men were atandlng by, together wtffi the wise and the men who were engaged In dlsi nterrl ng tbe body.

Met at tho Opera House at twelve o’clock. The edifice waa decorated very handsomely, festoons of evergreens intertwined with tbe national colors being hang from the galleries, and winding aronnd tbe pillars. On tbe stage was. large pyramid of evergreens and flowers. Alter music hy the band, the meeting wae called to order by Governor Anderson, of Tennessee, who presided over the Memphis Convention. who, after a few introdoctory remarks, called npon Rev. Mr. Perkins, of this city, to open the sernion with prayer. This being done, Governor Stevenson, of Kentnekv, was Introduced, and In an eloquent and feeling speech, welcomed the delegates to the State of Kentucky and the city of Lonlevllle. Th* Govern or’s speech was an able effort, taking an enlarged view of the present condition of affaire, and pointing out measures by which it might be improved. He wae frequently applauded. He took strong ground tn favor of making Norfolk, Virginia, tbe great point of shipment from the South, and urged that all parties unite tn an effort to build up that city. He also spoke at length of th* various subjects which will occupy the time of the Convention, labor,^capital, emigra-

At the conclusion of Governor Steveneon’s address, and after music, Colonel Blanton Duncan, wbo bMbeen one of the main spirits In getting up this Convention, nominated as President of the Convention, Hon. Millard Fillmore, Ex-Pran-ident of the United States. Mr. Fillmore wae nnanlmonaly chosen, and waa Intro daced In a glowing speech by Governor Stevenson, which savored rather of the rhapaodistfoal. Mr. Fillmore was received with rapturon* applause, and made little speech in which the usual self-de-preciation wae appropriately mingled with the glorification of the present occasion, and a little wholesome veneration forth# United States Constitution. He vindicated bis approval of the Fugitive Slave Aet, stating that b* knew U his polltleal death warrant, it statement which was not particularly In place.

Paetagee have been permitted to behold nothing like It. Both In tbe old world and In tha new tbe achievements of genius and tha triumph# of human will and heroic endurance aa tonlab, startle sad astound ns alike with their matchless success. Human foresight- falters at tba grandeur of tbe scbemM in material program which have crowned onr past sad fleeting decade.

The Atlantic Ocean has cessed to be longer an obstacle to Instantaneous communications between Europe and America. More than one enbmarine cable now nnltM America with England and France. Tbe prioM current of Liverpool ai.d of Havre are momentarily exchanged for those of New York and New Orleans, and official dlapatchea are passing hourly tween tbe diplomatist# of London, r— — and Washington. Tbe sneering and dogmatic skeptic who so persistently predicted the failure of the Atlantic Submarina Cable moat soon prepare himself to behold others upon new and grander principles, which shall connect America by electric wires with tbe civilised world. 'Lhe lofty Alps, mighty and impaaeable barriers for so assay centuries, to short transits and direct commercial communication. is held alike to tba power and will of man. Mount Cents has been pierced and Is being tunnelled, and tbe ehril whistle of tba locomotive will soon reverberate amid Ita oiitfo of perpetual snows. Ere to-morrow’s sun shall reach Its meridian tbe nations of tbe earth may learn that the greatest and grandest enterprise of human effort Is a magnificent success. At that hour upon tbe distent shores of tbe Mediterranean tbe crowned beads of Europe, In all tbe glittering pageantry of royallty, will oonatltutea part of a mighty throng, who then and there assemble to witness and commemorate the completion of a ship canal over tba Isthmus of Musa. What a scene, what a work, what a trinmpb; what human calculation eball measure tbe Influence of tbe sueoeesfnl inauguration of such an achievement upon tbe commerce of tbe world. Bombay, Madras and Calcutta brought at once Into quick commercial transit with Liverpool aud London; ships laden with tbe magic wealth of tbe West Indies, and tha exhaust less manufactures of tbe Western world, passing from boa to soa, over an arid desert of sand ninety miles in extent, by mesne of a canal of tbe average depth of twenty-four feet, and varying at top and bottom from 150 to 300 feet in width. For each an achievement civilization will be Indebted to Ferdinand Da Lesseps, whose genius, skill and endurance triumphs alike over the terrors ol tbe Monsoon, tbe floods of tbe Red sea, the Inundations of the Nile, and

even nature itself.

Immeasurable as must bo the success of this mighty work upon the trade and

commerce of ihe world, ever suits mey follow. It may

sanctify another and holier union. The fellowers of Mahomet and those of Jesus Christ must soon be brought in closer contact, and ties of human interest will bind them together.

I know that tha courtmy of gentlemen will not permit anything like disorder. In addition to this, allow me to ask one more favor. I have long since cessed to belong to any political party, trust, therefore, that tbe deliberations of this Convention will be outsideund above all political questloos. I trust tbera before me gentlemen of all political par ties, and, perhaps, gentlemen belonging to no party. We are here for another great object. In a spirit of unity let work, and I can only say I shall endeavor to discharge my duties Impartially, sod

to the best of mv ability.

Charles M. Thru*ton, of Louisville, be

Mr. Oaakill, of Georgia, moved that the Committee of Arrangements he requested to assign tbe members of each delegation so that they may nit together. Adopted.

Notwithstanding that the girl bad been •pokao of an th* captain’s daughter, he believed her to be hie own lost Lily. Aa hto brain grew clearer, his mind grow busy with speculations, and ha soon arrived at aa idea somewhere near th*

truth.

“Lily’s uncle is a sailor, and what sailor beside him could want to carry her off? He to going to take her far away, and maybe toe mamas to kill father and mother, and inherit all the Lawrence property. Poor little Lily! My heart ache* to comfort her. The key'

matt go to her!”

Be again arose and peered out into the csbtn. Th# door of tqp captain’s stateroom was apen and the two negroes ware

making np the berth,

could not move yet to Lily’s aasiat- , He must watt—he must have pa-

tience.

While he stood there, hto face paling and flashing, hto heart sinking and sw*Uiag with despondency and hope, the eaptein and mate came down the companionway, and sat down at tha cabin table, mcfiag for sundry drinks, which Tawkina hastened to prepare. Tbe two men talked over their win* a foil hour, telling what they should do in cam their present whaling expedition proved sueceastal, and drinking repeatedly to the desired success. It seemed to Richard as if they

would separate.

He crouched behind th* dosed door, waiting for their departure, and tram

hling so that be could scarcely stand.

“I shall be a rich man one of them days, BUI,” said the captain, atlaet, when th* mate arena. “I might ba sow if 'twon’t for two young una—my girl in there and m boy that’s nothing to nobody, a refuse of the waves, bat who may stand between me and a handsome property. One oi tnese days. Bill, when you are captain Instead of mate of tbe old Dolphin, I may amt you to dispose of my fine young gaatieinan for me. By George! I’d give a pretty snm to see that lad in yonr hands!” Tbe mate laughed, and said that ha should ba glad to see th* same, for a favor dora to Captain Stocks waa sure of reward. He faen went npon dank, leav-

ing tba ewwimandar to himself.

Richard instinctively understood the “youaggentleman” raterred to ba himralt Hto suaeietana that tha Captain waa the brother of hjpt foster-father and bene-

factor had received confirmation.

“But I am not going off with you!” claimed Lily. “I am going aahort

papa, mamma and Dick.”

She sprang up, darting toward the door of the cabin, with a wild hope of

0001pn.

Before the could reach the companionway, the Captain’s broad stride# had brought him beside her, and hto heavy

band was laid on har shoulder.

“None o’ that!” he said, with an ugly look. “I’ve got to go ashore again on business before we sail, and I can’t waste more time here. No um in your trying to escape. Scipio bra got bis eyeaon

you.”

He thrust her Into the dark state-room, locked the door, putting the key In hto pocket, and ordering the negro to keep a

close guard over tha captive. He then went about hto business.

The child thoroughly exhausted herself with the vehemence of her emotions and exertions t* escape, calling wildly on her parents for rescue, but at last she dropped into her berth, moaning and

sobbing faintly:

“Oh, Dick, dear Dick, come to me! Dome and rave your poor LUy!” Breathless with excitement, Richard

stole out into tbe cabin, closing hia stateroom door behind him. The time had

come for action.

Creeping noiselessly along the wall, hla restless gam divided between tbe negro, the oompanion-way, and tbe captain’s door, he stole to the entrance of Lily’s

apartment.

How ha trembled u he turned the

handle, preeaing upon it!

It yielded to bis touch—the door waa

not locked.

He softly glided in! Closing the door behind him, he softly locked it, finding tha key in ita place. Then he crept up to the berth, and looked in. ra wall ra the darkness per-

mitted.

Yea, there wm his Lily—hto lost Lilyfaint and pale ra one dead, her golden hair streaming over har pillow, ter long, curling laahra on torn cheeks, vailing the sweet, shut ayes, rad her breath faintly coming and going between her parted lips. Weary, strengthlem and despairing, she lay there like a broken flower. How Richard's heart awaiiad with joy aad rapture aa be looked on the lovely faee he had thought lying nnder the reatIsss waves! What a mighty yearning filled hto eoql at sight of her living, breathing form! “Lily!” ha whispered, softly, taking her IMMeea hand tot hto own. The eyelashes stirred a little, and the hand qoivared a little in hto grasp. “Lily!” he whispered again, with a solemn, ineffable tendernew. “LUy, darling—ills Dick!” Tha words seemed to galvanise tbe Iktle creature into new life. Hhe opened wide her wondering eyes, looked at him wildly—then a sadden comprehension of her great joy rushed over her, and she buried her face in bis bosom, weeping out her thanksgiving. She made no outcry—she uttered no seresm ■uch rapture w hers finds expression beat in went tears. Richard folded, her close to hla loving heart, and shed npon her bright head tears like hen—eolemn, joyful tears! What mattered all else? the perils they had passed? tbe dangers to oouie?
