As it is not likely thats .National Convention for the consideration of amendments to the Constitution of tbe United States can be called, inasmuch as the consent of the Legislatures of three-fourths of j|be Statss Is necesMry thereto, which consent i» not likely to be given, the Democratic State Committee of Connecticut proposes that as a substitute therfor a party Convention shall be called, for the purpose of considering what is best to be done 2 in reference to "the revolutionary proceedings of the present Cpngfes." What those revolutionary proceedings are might be asked in vainjas it is impossible to point to any proceeding of Congress which are "revolutionary.: At the last session certain amendments to the Constitutionwere proposed by Congress, which being strictly within the province of that branch of the Government, cannot be considered revolutionary by any ingenuity of perverted argument. At tbe present session the only measure of any importance thus far perfected by Congress has been the passage of the District of Colombia

Suffrage hill, which, as that District is specially in the control of Congress, and made so by the Constitution, cannot be considered revolutionary, although it inay be to have such bearing by the D°» -inocracy of Connecticut, which happens to "to be the minority in that State. The I proposition of these Yankees is that the

Rational Convention, if sanctioned by the '-Connecticut Convention, shall be held in the city of New York, and that delegates from the thirty-six States shall be invited, iit "is very possible that the plan will go through, although wo should think that the late attempt of the Democracy, at fe'Philadelphia, having been unfortunate, there would not be a warm desire to try it again. However, conventions are convenient assemblages for ambitto orator who are anxious to hear themselves talk "a:id read their ntu.n'j in the newspaper.

And there reay be a sufficient- number of such patriots, even the South, to be willing to attend the cor.voof.tion and make their grievances known. The affair under any name will be an affiliation of tee whipped Domorracyof the North and of the whipped Rebels of the South An appropriate opening anthem wiii be the ancient refrain.

Tuesday is the day named foT the

Turnpike meeting, near the residence of Esquire Pearson, in Pierson Township. It is supposed the meeting will be largely attended- Thore is much interest manifested in the matter, by the farmers, traders and merchants, along the proposed route, arid there is a settled determination to build the road. Our citizens, if they comprehend their true interests wili not allow the enterprise to languish for want '.of the proper encouragement

ViP.QXKiA seems to be somewhat interested now, in regard tc the Constitutional Amendment. The Old Dominion is awakening, if reports are correct, to a proper tense of her situation, and her leaders are beginning to belive that the host thing she can do is to ratify the progosed amendment to the organic law of the land. Mr. Segar, the United States Senator elect from Virginia has been in consultation with the members of the Vir ginis Legislature as to the probability of theiT adopting tbe Amendment, provided the Representatives and Senators from the State axe admitted to Congress. The country is bound in good faith to abide by the proposed amendment, and as soon as any one State ratifies it, her representatives should be admitted to their seftta in Congress, and will Wso admitted Without doubt. Sumner, and ptabably one or two others may oppose their admission, but the great majority of the Union'members of Congress will stand By their plighted faith to the terms of reconstruction proposed. The plan is -toild, reasonable and just. There is no oppresaSoniiii it whatever, nor does it humiliate' or disgrace the State which adopts it. "Were Virginia to ratify •t at once, her members would be admitted to Congress, and the example would have a powerful influence towards the final (settlement of all the questions growing out of the late war. It is the only practicable and just plan yet proposed for the restora tion of the lately rebellious States to their prpper relations in the Union.

n^ taken pang to

ascertain the fcciicgand disposition of the citizens and stock dealers along the proposed lino of th« new Turnpike, or Gravel jRoad, to Worthington, Ind.. I wish to state on that point some matters of interest.— Thejroad will certainly be commenced and go on to completion within the next two years, from Terrc Haute to Center-nil?, at the southeast corner of Vigo county, a •iistance of i? miles, and I think the chances are very favorable to construct .the road to Coffee Post Office and even to

Hawesville, at the Gre«ne county line, a distance of CS rniies from thf citv of Terre Haute, an now of the opinion that the road will take that course, and run near the old traveled road, straichtening tho short crooks in said road, lrom tno city of Terro Haute, by way cf Idaho Grocery, thence south. t: tbe old Bishop Mill Bridge, on Honey Creek, ibehce oy way

Samuel Young's, crossing tho railroad near .James Lane's, thenco along the old roaf to tho Irish Comer, near old Union Church, thence to Wni. Jenkins' farm, thenco by the nearest route to Ccntervillo, where the road will leave Vigo county, going -straight through several small farms, by way of the' Friendly Grove Church, and Lewis Township House, to the Babor Futrri, near CoflVe Post Office. This place is one among the most central points on the route, and is a good location for a pleasant village, or several business houses, being just one mile from the New Eldorado Mills, recently erected on Eel Biver, below the old Reservoir.— Then by the influence of tho business men at Hawesville James Fox, Wm. Morgan, fm. Muer and Moore Jewett, the road can be extended to tho Greene county line, a distance of 30 miies from the city of Terra Haute.

And right here at the Greene county line the new turnpike or gravel road will end, for I have the very best of authority for saying tbut tho merchants and business men of Worthington, Johnstown, Point Commerce, Linton and Bloomfield will all use their money and influence against the trade lrom Greene county going over a good road ton Terre Haute market. 2fow gentlemen, farmers, stock dealers, merchants'ar.d business men generally, who are interested in the construction of this road, lot us have a series of road meetings, commencing at Esquire Pearson's on New Tear's day at Hawesville School House, Saturday, January Otb, 1867, at 1 o'clock p.

and then neighborhood meetings at Coffer's Grocery Store, Puckett & Heingate's Store, at Centerville School House, Irish Corner or Old Union Church, Honey Creek Township House. 3bc.. &c., at suitable times public notice. "We can and will make a good road if we all help each

A Veritable Instance of Snake Charming, That tbe serpent is eadov/ea with the power to charm birds which they capture, and the ability to fascinate the larger animals, and eveu to influence the intellect of mau, is an eld and well established theory.

A marvelous incident of this character has just been brought to onr notice. A little boy, four or five years of age, of Irish parentage, in Bracken county, was in the habit during the whole of last summer, of going out in the woods near bis home, to play with his "pretty things,'' as he called them. After much persuasion, one day his mother was induced to follow him to his play grounds to see %vhat attracted him so much, when to her horror she discovered her little darling playing with a trio of huge black snakes, wholly unconscious of his peril. The boy was completely fascinated, and would advance and retreat, and sport and dally with his hideous comrades as if he tvere in the charmed circle of his brothers and sisters. The mother ic terror ran to the bouse crying for hel/, when the father of the lad rushed to the rescue of his boy, and after some difficulty killed tbesnRke". Wonderful to relate—and wo have tfcU inferBiaticc from a gentleman of unquestionable voracity—the little boy soon took to his bed, from which he never arose—ho pined away and died—an early victim cf the fascination of the serpent.

Three fair cf Tt«ir.s in Twelve teara. A lady, thp second wife of gentleman who resides in this city, presented her hu3--band with a pRir of fine boys on the evening the 28th nit. There is nothing que or remarkable in this, because it is a very common occurrence. But tb9 remarkable p»irt will rsadiiy be seen when we tell our readers that this if his third pair of twins in twelve yeftrs. His first wife gave birth to two pair, two girls and two boys, at intervals of four years. They were" born on the same day of tbe week, same day of the month, in th'e same month of the year, and all weighing exactly tho samg number of pounds If it isn't queer, we :nay say it is confounded regular.—HarjiUy.il (Mo.)

7REHCH TRA.QEDT AND ITS BESULT3.

One of our citizens, a well known professional gentleman, was married not long ago under very peculiar, and indwd, romantic circumstances. It seems that while travelling some years ago on the Continent, he encountered and fell in love with a governess, in the house of a French nobleman whose wife was jealous of the lady, and finally caused her to leave her position in the family. The governess required a recommendation wnich should have come from the jealous wife, who, on application, refused it, declaring the lady was the mistress of her lord. The charge so excited the nobleman that a violent quarrel ensued, during which he murdered his spouse, and was arrested. While in prison, and after he had been tried and condemned he committed suicide, and the unfortunate but innocent cause of this double tragedy emigrated to this country, arriving in this city.

Here her American lover met her and married h«r, and is now living with her in the very bosom of domestic joy. His wife is said to be one of the most intellectual and cultivated women in New York, and is naturally an object of much interest on account of her romantic and tragic an' tecedents, especially as the trial of the nobleman is published in the CapsesCelebres, and is known to most of her acquaintances.

ELC9ANT DOMESTICS.

At a select dinner party of literary gen tlemen, given by a lady of distinction, few days since, several of her feminine relatives attired themselves in abort dressof, aprons and bewitching caps, and performed the part of waiters. It i3 said they looked very pretty, and performed the service they undertook in the most graceful and engaging manner. The extraordinary courtesy was thankfully appreciated by the gentlemen, who needed to be fine to understand the fineness of the act and when the ladies had changed their dresses and descended to the drawing rooms in their natural characters they were warmly thanked for tbe generous boldness, which the guests declared they did not deserve. Ordinary women would not attempt such politeness, for it requires those conscious of perfect refinement and good breeding, and altogether secure of themselves, to know that the doer is everything, and what we do—so long as it he not unworthy—only an accident or circumstance, learn that since the fashion has been set others are about to follow it- The experiment is delicate, and can be successful only with the be3t company. If it becomes the mode, diuing out will have anew attraction.

A Lion in His Old Age.

When a young lion reaches the age of two years he is able to strangle or pull down a horse or ox and so he continues to grow and increase in strength till he reaches his eighth year, and his talons, teeth, and mind are perfect and he grows no more. For twenty year3 after he arrives at maturity, his fangs and talons show no signs of decay but after that he gradually becomes feeble, his teeth fail him, and he grows "cubbish." He is no longer a match for for the tremendous buffalo he is overmatched even by the peaceful ox, so he prowls around the cattle kraals, and snatches a lamb or a kid, just as he did when he set out with hia parents, nearly thirty years before. A woman or a child at night shares the same fate. His strength and sight now decline more and more, till the mighty lion grows lean and mangy, and crawls about from place, eating any offal he can pick up and despising not even as small an animal as the field mouse so he starves and dies, or is fallen on and slaughtered by a few cowardly hyenas or discovored unable to move beneath a tree, and knocked on the head by some wandering hunter.

"The subject is a female. I am told by a black who brought i« to me that the mo1 ther was in a palm tree when he carried off the animal, It was eating tbe palm fruit, those from which the palm oil is made. The little 'ginia' is always suspended from its mother in front in such a position as to be able to suck at any moment, and it always takes up that position when the person who carries it lets it do as it likes. But it is very soon troublesome and when you wish to make it give up that position it utters cries, and it is only by a trick that it can be made to let go its hold. The sailors manage to strip off their jerseys, and In this way to let the poor 'gina' light
