FROM CHARLESTON. AYe did hope to be able to give our readers tho benefit of the old-line nomination for the Presidency in this issue of our paper but from the telegraphic news from Charleston to the Lafayette Courier, of yesterday, we find it will be impossible, as there is but little prospect of the selection being made before Friday or Saturday. To show the true condition of that august bod}*, however, and her deliberations, at the latest advices, we subjoin the following from the Courier: The cotton States have presented a slave code as their ultimatum, and threatened to secede from the Convention at the alternative, either before or after the nomination has been made. The Douglas managers, in their desperate extremity, seem disposed to encourage the threatened secession in the hope of securing a two-thirds vote for their candidate. On the other hand the conservative southern States urge upon their fire-eating bretherm to remaine in the convention until after the nomination at least, with a view of aiding in the nomination of a southern man. The Committee on the platform had a stoi'my session last night, and a proposition to endorse the Cincinnati juggle was voted down, the representatives of the extreme south demanding a slave code as a sine qua non. It was proposed finally to inject the Dred Scott decision into the body of the platform as a compromise, and we presume the upshot of tho matter will be a majority report in favor of something of this sort. A dispatch was received at Charleston from the battle-ground of San Jacinto, announcinga mass meeting of the people of Texas and the nomination of old Sam Houston as the people's candidate, The effect, says o-ur correspondent, was "electrical.'' and ft is intimated that in I

the event of rejection of "Wood's dele-1, ,,

gation by the Committee on Credentials, an electoral ticket, with Old San Jacinto at the head and Fernado "Wood as Vice-President, is among the probabilities.

The Convention adjourned at noon and would assemble again at four o'clock, when comes the tug of war on the adoption of the platform. There will be no nomination before to-mor-row or next day.

Mr. Robinson, chairman of the Vermont'delegation, died suddenly at Charfleston. this morning, of appoplexy.

A large-number of ladies were admitted to the floor of the ball to-day, and their presence, doubtless, had a restraining influence upon the ruffianism incident to such an assembly. At any rate we are advised that Mr. Richardson, the shoulder-hitter of the Douglasitcs, was induced to keep his shirt on and did not again mount a chair in the middle of the hall, as yesterday, with his sleeves rolled up, tender a knockdown argmnent in vindication of squattor sovereignty and tho right of free speech..

BSg^Should Stephen A. Douglas fail to secure the nomination at Charleston, the lieview will eschew politics and turn its attention to spiritualism, and occasionally give an article on Penitentiary experience. We understand that the services of an eminent medium has already been engaged conditionally,

ygyOnr friend Henry Nicholson, a backsliding Know Nothing, is now the most promiuent candidate for Recorder before the Democratic convention. If Henry can marshall a sufficient number of dark lanterns he will undoubtedly be tli coming man I

have had three severe frosts

in as many nights past, and it ia feared that th& fruit has been very seriously injured.

-A.noth.er Heception!

Tremendous Outpouring or the -i, .,4 Maswes! x: Tlie citizens of our town werfe al, ways noted for thoir unbounded admiration of their distinguished citizen, and last evening, another of' those outbursts of popular enthusiasm, told plainly that this spirit wanes not, but increases. It was the largest demonstration ever mado here, not excepting the reception of General Cass,

Yesterday afternoon it was rumored that our friend Bowen, of tho lieview in his anxiety to hear tho fate of the Little Giant at Charleston, resolved to visit Lafayette, for the purpose of procuring the latest advices from the seat of war. He departed on the five o'clock train and was no sooner gone than his many friends and admirers determined to give him a reception worthy of a Roman General. Much credit is due Mr. G. AY. M. M. L. Riley and Mr. Alfred Callawffy for their untiring exertions, which rendered the affair glorious as it was.

Long before the nine o'clock train arrived numbers of anxious and enthusiastic citizens were crowded about the depot, caeh vicing with his neighbor in effort to add interest to the occasion.

The train was soon heard, and its approach was greeted with loud and prolonged cheering by the hundreds who waited to do honor to the man of genius. As the train drew near the depot the engine whistle was sprung, and the Iron Horse mingled its shrill notes of joy with the rapturous applause of the multitude. The committee of citizens, appointed for the purpose, boarded the train and informed Mr. B. of the honor his fellow citizens designed doing him. He, with his usual modesty and gracei desired to decline, preferring to appear as an humble American citizen. This, as a matter of course, was refused, and lie was escorted around the North end of the depot and placed in the front of the procession. A complimentary salute of one gun was fired by Private Robinson, of the Montgomery Guards, and the procession proceeded up Green street.

First in the procession came Mr. Geo. Faust, leading his magnificent Jack, Black "Warrior, signifying that the farming interests were united in doing honor to the great. Next came the military band of the Guards, consisting of one bass and one snare drum, the filer unfortunately being absen*. Next the Crawfordsville brass baud, minus the leading instruments next an eight gallon bottle, borne by two citizens next a lantern, illuminated by one tallow candle, carried by a citizen whose name we could not learn next the Culithumpian band in full force, led by Ilerr Crawford, who. as the procession moved with slow and measured tread, kept admirable time upon the Pnrsell House Gong borrowed expressly for the occasion. Next came the committee of reception, surrounding Mr. B., and it was noticed with what ferocity Baron "Watson scowled upon the small boys, who crowded around the man of the occasion. Next came a gentleman bearing a beautifully painted transparency, expressive of the many virtues and rare accomplishments of the noble citizen. Next followed between two and eight hundred citizens, who, as the n'ocession moved up Green and down

ir„

Vernon streets, to the Court House

square, gave vent to their feelings in loud and hearty cheers. Upon the arrival of the procession at. the Court House square, it halted, and after three cheers and a ''tiger' had been given, Mr. Bowen was called for and made his appearance, which was greeted with a hurricane of applause. After some minutes, quiet was restored, and he proceeded to thank his fellow citizens for the honor done.him, in a thrilling address of some fifteen minutes length, and ending by inviting such as were dry to '-liquidate''at his expense. After the performance of a very fine piece of music, said to be "See the conquering hero comes," by the combined bands, the crowd dispersed, ending the most brilliant and magnificent display ever witnessed in the West.

Among the aspirants—on the

sly—among the Republicans for County Treasurer, is Mr. John Darter.— John is exceeding anxious to serve his country, and is withal a very clever fellow. Oil the occasion of the last Republican Convention he was snubbed most outrageously, no attention being paid to his claims and services rendered. John has now concluded to take time by the forelock and out-wit his com tors..—Review. —The above from the Review of last week is in keeping with tho usual character of that sheet, for truth. Mr. D. is not a candidate, nor has he a desire to bccome such.

It is easy to see why the Review now desires to place Mr. Darter in the light of an aspirant. His sledge hammer blows tell with fearful effect upon tho rotten carcass of the sham-democracy whenever he strikes, and ho wishes to silence him by this transparent dodge. It won't do neighbor!

V' LEXINGTON, APRIL 14, '60.

|e,

Codtcas^ to my expectations I am #till remaining^for a short timo in Kentucky You are aware that I was summoned slid den ly from home to see a sister-in-law, who was suffering from the effects of a large tumor, and was given up by her physician to die.— Tho tumor had been examined by the ablest and most experienced physicians of rbotK JDouis^ille lintl Lexington, among whom was the venerable .-Dr. -Miller, who has gained a high reputatation not only in our own country, but among the nations of the old World.— They were all (five in number) men of enlarged experience, extensive practice, learned in the profession, aud occupying a front rank among the surgeons and physicians of the State. After frequent and repeated examinations they, one and all, pronounced it a solid, fibrous tumor, from, which no relief could be had fromsurgical intcrferoncc, and Avhieh must, within a short time, terminate in death. On Monday night of last week, I reached the home of the patient, and found her emaciated, sinking and almost paraded by the tumor, supposed by the physicians to weigh 40 pounds. After a careful examination I pronounced it neither solid nor fibrous, but a soft, 3-ielding. fluctuating mass of matter enveloped in a membrane, and at once proposed its removal by a surgical operation. My position and opinion and proposed practice was in direct opposition to the entire Faculty, and was condemned as visionary, impractical and murderous but my ojunions were fixed and I felt as confident of the presence of matter as if it were then flowing before ray eyes. Her attending physician was sent for, who came and consented readily and hcartity to a surgical exploration for the purpose of ascertaining the nature of tho tumor, but had not the slightest hope of or confidence in finding matter. Another was sent for who pronounced it a solid mass, and any operation would be almost equal to murder. lie left immediately and refused to stand by and see the operation. You will now readily appreciate the delicacy of my position and the fearful responsibility resting on me. The patient was given up to die, and the correctness of my opinions gave her the only hope, the only chance for life. I stood opposed by five experienced and eminent men. most of them my seniors in age and practice. If they were right my practice would do injury and probably hasten the patient's death: On Wednesday last, the patient, her husband, friends, and attending physician, gave their consent for the operation, and at 3 o'clock the operation was performed. With one stroke of the knife I revealed the enveloping membrane of the tumor within an inch and a half of the surface, and then felt that my diagnosis was correct. In an instant the trocar r.ml cannular (a round instrument with a sharp, triangular point enveloped in a silver tube) was passed in and the matter freely flowed, until more than a gallon was drawn off. The patient, friends and physician remained in mute astonishment, but hope gladdened the eyes of all. The correctness of m}r opinion, diagnosis and practice was at once confirmed, which has been cordially and heartily approved and sanctioned by all. Never, never have I passed through such an ordeal. Standing a comparative stranger and alone, in opposition to such a formidable array of numbers, talent and abilit}' the life of the wife, mother and sister, trembling in the ballanco, charged with attempting an operation barbarous andbut little removed from murder tho responsibility rested with mountain weight upon me, and nothing short of the most perfect confidence in my diagnosis bore me on in the discharge of the fearful and arduous duty but the result verified my prediction and 1 have enjoyed the proud satisfaction of approval from the family, neighbors, physicians and friends. The patient has steadily improved up to this timo, and strong hopes are now entertained of her recovery. Had tho operation been performed several months ago I have not the slightest doubt that she would now have boon woll. As it is, I havo faith in her ultimate recovery. She looks and feels better than she has done for moro than a. year.— Heaven grant that her life may be spared.

ADVICE TO LADIES.—Wo are aware there are many of our lady readers who are complaining of weakness and debility. Our advice is to go at once and get some of JifeJjeans Strengthening Cordial and Blood Purifier. It is a delicious TONIC, and just the thing to INVIGORATE the whole organization, and PURIFY THE BLOOD. See advertisement in another column. ••Y.VH
