TT "VT "I "I ' v7U. A.J From the State Sentinel 'Baltimore and Richmond. I The New York Tribune, of Monday, j has the following speculations and infor- ! roation upon the probable composition of the delegation to lialumore Irom the seeeding Suites. We give them in preference lo any suggestions of our own, for the reason that they will not be liable to the charge of partiality or sympathy between the parlies at issue : "Steps are in progress at the South to meet the emergency occasioned by the secession, tbe adjournment to Baltimore, and the call for a new Convention at Richmond. In Georgia, the most populous and impoitant of the seceding btaies, a very warm struggle is going on between j the triends and the opponents ot the seceeI sion policy, tho immediate occasion being i . f .it . - .i tlie election i ueiegates io me oiaio convention, called by the Democratic executive Committee.to meet at Milledgeville on the 4ih of June. At Augusta, a delegation hostile to the secessionists ha.H been elected, and a resolution has been adopted I in favor of sending delegates on to Balli j more. A proposition in favor of sending Ljejeatej, to Richmond also; or of authoriziuir the delegates elected to sit in both conventions was voted down. Ex-Governor Johnson has written a letter in which he takes the same grounds with Stevens, viz : that the Demociatic party is pledged to the doctrine of leaving the people of the Territories to regulate the question of slavery in their own way, subject only to the Constitution of the United Slates, and of referring any controversy that may arise as lo the binding force of any territorial laws on that subject to be settled by the Judiciary. The indications would seem to be that in Georgia the auti-seees-sionists would carry the day. The State Convention of Alabama, by which the delegates to Charleston were elected, foreseeing tho contingency of a secession, appointed an Executive Comittee, on which the duty was imposed, in case such secession occurred, to call a Convention of the Democracy of Alabama, lUIICIUCI ß I Kl b IB UCOI V Wi -11. . , lor a Convention to meet in Monto:omerv on uf JUl0 tl,e same day with Q - Convention. Certain citizens o . however, oi thu State, have issued a call f T another Convention, to be held at I Montgomery n the same day, for the purnose ol electing leleats lo till the seats at Baltimore left vacant by the secession of the Alabama delegates at Charleston. 1 In this cull the secessionists are charged with tho design, not merely with destroying the Demociatic paity, but of pieciptt.t:ing a revoluii i. intended to result in the dissolution of the Union. Tiie Democratic State Central Committee of Louisiana, instead of calling a new Convention, Iiave issued a call for the reassembling at LUtou Itouge, on the 4ih of June, ot the Convention bv which the the seceding delegates are responsible only to th-3 body bv which thev are appointed für tJw in:l!im.r it, which theV mar Iiave i,-!i 1 1 . 1 .t . ".1 : m .. lulhlled tiieirdtuies, and that tins CwovenConvention to be held at Baltimore. This call 13 addressed to all such voters as adhere to the platform adopted by the maijority of the Charleston Convention, as i are determined to support the nominations to be made at Balt imore, and are as averse j to all sorts of divisioi S in the Democratriinks tue organizuion of new parties, t and the revi ing of odious issues, under the lrntatinir distinctions ol union and anti-Union men Another call for a Stato Convention, to meet at New Orleans on the 8th of Juno, for the like purpose of selecting delegates j to represent the State at Baltimore, has been issued by the " Louisiana Democratic Association," George A. Fosdick. Pre Elder' t. A Statj Cor.rention for Mississippi is to be held at Vicksburg on the 30th inst.Thif Convention, il is alledged, will approve the act of the seceders, and will authorize such delegates as it may elect to attend both at Baltimore and Richmond. It would seem doubtful, however, whether tho Convention at Richmond will rej .jj.. com(J to anything. No movements J . . , appear to be on Io)t in Inu non-seceding State to send delegates to it. Such of the secoilers as may fail to obtain an endorsement at home will hardly feel like showing themselves at Richmond. It is evident that the expectations of the authors of that movement have been greatly disappointed. The South ha shown itself much less inclined to be precipitated into decisive measures than Mr. Vaney had hoped. Not only has the movement found no encouragement from the non-slavehold-ing States , even the cotton Sta'es appear to b3 very hesitating and doubtful. Wm. Pallon, whose singular disappearance from this city hist fall in company wish a designing woman ho loved not wisely but too well, returned to his deaerted home a day or two since, a changed and repentant man.

PLYMOUTH,

The president or the Chicago convention. Mr. George Ashmun was elorjueut at Chicago upon th subject of official morality. He animadverted in measured terms of the reproachful severity, upon the impurities cf tlje administration. If ever there was an exemplification of the devil quoting scripture, it was in the instance of Mr. George Ashmun, in the painted cepulchre yclept the wigwam at Chicago. A cotemporary, commenting upon his speech, asks : And who is this bold accuser ? It is the same George Ashmun who, if we mistake not, testified, some two years ago, before a congressional committee, that he bad received a little lobby fee. of four thousand dollars for his free wool" lob by services in behalf of the tariff bill of 1857. 64,000 to Ashmun, 95,000 to Veed, and an application from the cheva Her Webb for a furnished bouse in Washington, to be well stocked with provisions and liquors, by Lawrence, Stone, fc Co., in consideration of what Webb might do as a freo wool lobby man, were all parts of the same job. And yet this incorruptible Ashmun, of this precious lobby gang, is the man who publicly denounces the corruption of Mr. Buchanan's Administra tion I" Mr. George Ahmun was a fit person to preside oversucb an assemblage as that which designated Spot Lincol i" ts its champion ; an assemblage representing a faction which aims at nothing loftier than plundering the treasury, and demoralizing the body politic, through antislavery agU tation. Washington States. What caused seward's defeat. It was generally conceded at Chicago, on Thursday evening last, the day before the balloting for President by the Convention, that Mr. Seward would be nomiaaled. Greeley wait so well satisfied of it, that he twlegraphed his Tribune to that effect, though he himslf was violently opposed to Seward. The correspondent of the Commeicial of this city telegraphed that there was no doubt of Seward's nomination the next day. Other correspondents predicted the same thing. On the strength of that general conviction, the friends of Mr. So ward cracked three hundred bottles of champaign at the Tremont House, Thürsday evening. The question naturally arU 8s. bow is it then be was not nominated ? We wil) answer as we got it from an intelligent Republican who was present. He tells us that the three Republican candid ates for Governor for the respective states of Pennsylvania, Indianaand Illinois went together to the several delegations from New England, and some other Slates, and represented to them that the Republican party, in their States, could not survive the nomination of Mr. Seward, and that in the event of h;s nomination, they would go home and decline the canvass in their re sp3Ctire States. It was that threat that produced such a sudden change, and caused the defeat of Seward. Cin. Enq. The nArPT family. The Detroit Advertiser, a furious Republican sheet, criticises some of Mr. Greely's extraordinary political manoeuvres of the last few days, and remarks as follows : ' The Republicans of llichigan will need no other evidence than this simple admission to satisfy them that Mr. Greely is an unsafe aud dishonest counsellor, and that his paper is now less entitled to tneir confidence and support than ever. Entirely in harmony as it is with the whole course of the Tribune, and of Mr. Greely personally at Chicago, in regard to tho presidential nominee of the Republican party, it adds another proof to the many we have in history, that with the highest order of talents a man may be utterly destitute of all practical wisdom. JtZT The Atlanta (Georgia) Confederacy is authorized to state that there is a man now living in Atlanta who will fight the Benecia Boy" for the sum of ten thousand dollars," the fight to come off during tho present year, at any point south of Mason and Dickson's line The person spoken of is a native of Georgia, stands six feet oni inch in hight, and weighs 210 pounds. He is just in tho prime of life. Should lleenan not accept the proffered challenge, the Atlanta 'Boy' challenges any man in Europe r America to fiiibt him for tke above amount. We have given copious extracts elsewhere, showing what the true feeling of the South is as regards the seceders from the Charleston Convention. It will be seen that the disorganize aro everywhere repudiated, and that the feeling is strong in favor of Douglas even in thoss States where delegates were most bitter in the'r denunciation of him. Steps have been taken for calling Conventions in most of thosa States to appoint new delegates, and we see no reason to doubt that when the Convention reassembles at Baltimore better counsels will prevail, harmony will be re-established, and Douglas will be triumphantly nominated for Prtsid.-nt. Ft. Wayne Sen. The Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer says: The nomination of Lincoln and Hamlin has not created much enthusiasm, because the Republican here were all in favor of Seward. They are not at an connoeni ot carrying New York; Pennsylvania is regarded as altogether doubtful. It is a ßource of humiliation to them that Lincoln obtained his only notoriety by being beaten by Douglas in 1853. The House committee on Foreign Affairs have unanimously agreed to support the Senate bill appropriating 810,000 to Townsend Harris, for negotiating the treaty with Siam, which is intended as an act of acknowledgement of his valuable services to th commerce in the easl.

INDIANA, THTJKSDAY, JUNE 7, 1860.

A Contented Farmer. Once upon a time, Frederick, King of Prussia, surnamed "Old Fritz," while riding out. espied an old farmer, plowing his aero by the wayside, cheerily singing his melody, You must be well off old man said the King. 'Does this acre belong to you, on which you so industriously labor?' No, sir,' replied the farmer, who knew not it was the King; 'I am not so rich as that, I plow for wages.' How much do you get a day?' asked the Xing. Eight groachen (about twenty cents) said the farmer. This is not much,' replied the King, can you get along with this?' I get along and have something left.' How is that?' Tie farmer smiled and said: Well, if I must tell you, two groschen are for myself and wife; with two I pay old debts; two I lend away ; and two I give away for the Lord's sakt.' 'This is a mystery which I cannot solve," said the King. Then I will solve it for you, said the farmer. I have two parents at home, who kept me when I was weak and needed help, I keep them. This is my debt towards which I pay two groschen a week. The third pair of groschen, which I lend away, I spend for my children, that they may receive Christian instruction. This will come handy to me and my wife when we got old. With the two last groschen I maintain two sick sisters; this 1 give for the Lord's sake.' The King well pleased with his ans wer, said: Bravely spoken, old man. Now I will give thee something to guess. Have you ever seen me bafore?' Never, said the farmer. In less than five minutes you shall see me fifty times, and carry .n your pocket fifty of my likenesses.' This is a riddle which I cannot unravel,' said the farmer. Then I will unravel it for you,' replied the King. Thrusting his hand into his pocket and counting him fifty bran new gold pieces into his hand, stamped with his royal likeness, he said to the astonished farmer who knew not what was coming: The coin is genuine, for it comes from our Lord God, and I am his paymaster. 1 bid you adieu.' Fun at Home. Don't be afraid of a little fun at home, good people. Don't 6hut up your houses lest the sun should fade your carpets, aud your hearts, lest a hearty laugh 9hould shako down some ot the musty cob-webs there'. If you want to ruin vour sons let them think that all mirth and enjoy met t must bs left on the threshold without, when they come homo. When once a home is regarded as only a place to eat, drink and sleep in, the work is begun that ends in gambling houses and reckless degradation. Young people must have fun and relaxation, somewhere; aud if they do not find it at their own hearthstones, it will be sought in other and perhaps less profitable places. Therefore, let the fire bum brightly at night, and make their home most delightful with all those little arts that parents so perfectly understand. Dou't repress the buoyant spirits of your children; half an hour of merriment around the lamp and firelight of homo blots out the ie:nembrance of manv a care and annoyance during the day; and the best safeguard they can take with them into the world is the unseen influence of a bright little domestic home. L'e lllusliatcd. Fanny Fern, in one of her latest newspaper contributions relieves her mind on the subject of 'God Old Fashioned Re ligion' thus Heal devotion may stroll to church with gilt clasped velvet prayer-book, and a stat ing gilt cross on lie oover, held by the daintiest yellow gloves, in conjunction with a cob-web handkerchief heavily freighted with rich lace; real devotion may do this, but it staggers mj faith to believe it. It is a relief to me, at any rate, to look away from such a spectacle to somebody, in homely but well mended clothes, in company with a well thumbed Bible or prayer book, with the lock of hiving lee n iised: a leaf turned down here, a pencil mark there, perhaps by some dear, toiled stained hand, cold and white enough now, over which warm tears dropped, on its pages, during life's great bturggle upward.' i 1 1 Old Newsi'APERS. Many people take newspapers, but few preserve them ; the most interesting imaginable is a file of newspapers. It brings up the very age, with all its genius and its spirit more than the most labored description of the historian. Who can take a paper dated half a contury ago, without the thought that almost every name there printed is now cut upon a tombstone, at the head of an epitaph ? The doctor, quack or regular, that there advertised his medicines, and has followed the sable train of his patients, tho merchant his ships ; could get no security on his life ; and tho actor, who could make others laugh or weep, now can only furnish a 6kull for his successors in Hamlet. It is easy to preserve newspapers, and they will repay the trouble ; for, like that of wine, their value increases with their age, and old files have torn ttimcs been sold at prices too startling to mention. . , . , m m More than one hundred man are busily engaged in preparing the Metropolitan hotel, in New Yrork, for the accommodation of the Japanese visitors. Their apartments will be fixed up in the most luxuriant style.

Our Chip Basket Never be cast down by trifles. If a spider b eaks its web twenty limes will he mend it. Aunt E. was trying to persuade little Eddy to go to bed at sundown, using as an argument that the little chickens went to bed at that time. Yes,' says Eddy, 'but the old hen always goes along with them.' Aunty tried no more arguments with him. I am very much troubled with cold feet and hands, madam. I should suppose, sir, that a young gentleman who had so many mittens given him by the ladies might keep his hands warm.' A young man in conversation one evening chanced to remark, I am do prophet True, replied a lady present, no profit to yourself or to anyone else.' 'Suicide is becoming very prevalent in my city,' said a gentleman to an inhabitant of a neighboring town. Well, sir, I don't know where it could prevail with better advantage U the world at large.' It is said that it is 'better to givo than receive.' Probably Heenan and Sayrs thought so when they were pitching into each other inside the ropes. It is with charity as with money the more we stand in need of it, the less we get. Poverty sticks to a man after all of his friends and the rest of mankind desert him. When your friends are laid up with the rheumatism, always press ihem to come over and take tea with you. While such acts of kindness entail no expense, they procure for you sympathy and neighborly kindness. When preachers grow proud of the beauty of their prayers, Satan himself might readily toll the bell to snramon the congretion to church. Never answer a calumniator. If you will only give a rattlesnake time enough, he will sting himself and die of his own venom. An Odd Fellows Lodge has been established at Pike's Peak. The poet who sighed for a lodge in some vast wildorness can now be accommodated. 'Give thy children a sound education," coupled with soma useful trade, and you thereby give them a foruno. Givu them to understand from the beginning, that labor is honorable.' Madam, your shawl h dragging in the mud.' 'Well, what if it is, ain't it the; fashion?' j A word of kindness is seldom spoken in vain. It is a seed which even dropped by chance, springs up a sweet flower. The thumb is a useful member, but because you have one. you needn't to get your neighbor under it. It is veiy well to blush wheu you are detected in a mean act; but you had a gi ait deal better blush when you first think of committing it. Any thing Midas touched was turned into gold. In these days, touch a man with gold and he will turn into anything Scre Remedies. For corns: easy shoes; rheumatism new flannel and patience; toothache pull it out; debts retrenchment; love get married. It is a noticeable fact that in Sewsrd's letter to the New Yorkers, be does not even mention the name of Lincolu. JtST The Japanese Embassy are described as being mostly young men, from thirty to forty years of age, courteous and refined in manners, gentlemen of taste and culture, accustomed to good society, and good things af all sorts, exceedingly fond of and gallant to tho kdies, and immensely sound on the champaign question. They are wonderful, moreover, in tho knife and fork way, and epicurean in their tastes. The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press says: lhe news lrom Chicago greatly disheartens Mr. Seward's friends, lie was warmly beloved by thousands, and his heart and theirs was fixed upon the Presidency. They wero very confident and are proportionably much cast down. They charge all sorts of ihings upon other candidates, but I will not repeat them. The North Iowa Times says: It is cheering to be informed, as we have been in the past few days, that many prominent gentlemen of North Iowa, lately adverse to Democracy are stating publicly their intention to vote for Mr. Douglas if ho is a candidate. We care not to trumpet their names, but we have them in our possession, and when the canvass begins they will be in the field to vote for popular sovereignity and its ablest defender. The number of persons who will attend the Baltimore Convention on the 18th of June, will be immense. Large delegations are going from almost every county of Ohio and the Northwest. The Convention piomises to bo one of the largest ever held in the United States. The people will be there to see that the delegates properly ratify the selection of Mr. Douglas as the President of the United States. It is estimated that over 3,000,000 artificial teeth were made in the United States last year; the largest proportion of which were made in Philadelphia. One firm in that city pays out 8800 p?r week for wages The same firm produces 9000 different shapes and sty'e of teeth, requiring 18,000 worth of molds, and using up platidum to tho amount of $2,400 and producing 1,000 teth daily or near 1,000.000 per annum, their whole value being over S300.000. To make room in people' mouths for this immonce pile cf teeth must keep the dentists buy.

The weakness of the Clucago nominee could not be more forcibly acknowledged than in the peculiar efforts that are being made io prop him up with what is called substantial timber." A Chicago correspondent writes that Carl Shurz, of Wisconsin, through whose demand the anti Know Nothing plank was put into the Republican platform, insists that Mr. Seward must he Secretary of State, or he and tiiose he represents will not be satisfied." Pennsylvania is to be further conciliated with the assurance that "Cameron wiil be made Secretary of the Treasury." New England is to luve Ashmun in the Cabinet.

Miss Martineau is a great advocate of getting up early in the morning. She says : " I fpeak from experience here. For thirty years my business has lain in my study. The practice of early rising was, I am confident, the grand preservative of health, through many years of hard work the hours being given, not to book or pen, but to activity. I rose at six, summer and winter, and (after cold bathing,) went out for a walk in all weathers. Iu the coldest season, on the rainiest morning, I never returned without being glad that I went. I need not detail the pleasures of the summfr mornings. In winter, there was either a fragment of gibbous moon hanging over the mountain, or some star quivering iu the river, or icicles shining in the dawn, or at worst, some break in the clouds, some moss on the wall, come gleam on the water, which I carried home in the shape of refreshment.

About a year ago, an abolitionist living in Madison, Lake county, Ohio, employed a negro, and admitted him o equal social equality with his family. Keceutly he has noticed with painful emotions that an attachment was growing up between his wife and the nero. On Sunday night a week ago, the wife tan off with the negro, leaving her child with her husband. The husband attributes the whole tiling to the abolition literattue with which W had supplied his house. The sea et of success in farming, as well as eveiything else, is doing everything in the right time. The reason why some men are always behind with ihfcir work: their planting r sowing loo late: their crops overtaken by wet ds, is because they put off too many things tor tomorrow that should be done to-day. He who allows the labor of one day to crowd upon anoiher.is always a liitle too latu with everything, and he at once concludes that he is born to bad luck.
