Lor J Bronghaoi has lately made a movement oo Slaver, io the British House of Lords, which mast altrast rtteotioo io this country. The great Octogenarian has seised the true point in tbe case, aud atilike tboe Abolitiooisfs, who merely "shriek for freedom" while they do nothing practically for its promotion fe.be, Samgoo-like, bas taken a strong hold upon tbe main pillar which upholds the accursed institution. If England bas "sinned greatly," as Lord Brougham says, both in establishing slavery in tbe world, and io tbe slave trade, we trait that bis Lordship may be able to show the British nation that tbe sin of sustaining slavery by purchasing almost exclusively its products,' should be atoned for by an immediate reform io this respect England established slavery in this country, and we have the strongest claims upon her to u?3 ber utmost exertions to aid us io its abolition, and there can be no question, bat the course now proposed by Brougham is the only one by which England can be of any service to us in this matter. Ixv-9 than 200,000 coUon growers have a monopoly which they wish to retain, and this monopoly i the main support of an institution which constilups the "greatest danger to this Govern ment, and jeopardizes the peaco and happiness of nearly 30 millions of inhabitants. We regret that Lord Brougham did oot present this point strongly that should the English Government adopt measures for procuring cotton elsewhere, only about 200,000 of onr citizens could have any cause of complaint of unfriendly legislation; while the remainder, mora than 23 millions, would have cause of rejoicing aod thankfulness. Then England can procure ber cotton elsewhere cheaper than here, since slave labor, as a general thing, is really more expensive than free. Our planters, with great 0'itlay of capital and high prices of slave?, can produce cotton for from 5 to 7 cents per pound, aud there are many other parts of the world, where cotton can be produeed with far less labor, and where labor is fur cheaper than slave labor. This was shown pretty conclusively by Dr. Leavitt's articles, which we published a lew weeks ago, on the Commercial Causes and Cure for Slavery." '. Wo subjoin a few extrarf fm-n - hmm mgnry interesting. lie. Brougham, rejoiced in the benefits which bad resulted to the people of the United States from our repeal of the duty on raw cotton ; but it tliouIJ not be forgotten that some of our own colonies presented great facilities fur tbe growth ofcottin, and he hoped that in British Guiana, Jamaica, and in Africa, every encouragement wonld b afforded by the Oovernment to the cultivation of this most important material. Above all, he trusted that a trade in cotton would be opened upon the eat coast of Africa, in tbe dis tricts explored by Vt. JUvingstooe, for upon the bighlauds of that country, cotton to acy amount, and ol the best quality might, with a slight encouragement, be raised. I!e was told that a capital of 20.000, judiciously directed there, wou d be sufficient to secure this very great advantage, and he did hope that if it were inexpedient for the government to interfere in such matters, bis wealthy friends at Manchester and Liverpool wou d lend a hand to raise that sum of money. In the United Slates thoy had what was called 'the domtstic institution,' (though in his eyes it was rather an offense than a institution), and the slave trade there was also held to be an institution, and one of great antiquity. We ourselves had sinned greatly in both these matters ; bat certainly no parallel cou'd be found io any part of our history to the law said to have been recently enacted io Arkansas. It was no concern ef ours : but, on the other band, Americans had no right to complain if we did all that we could to find a substitute for the cotton'irrown under the domestic institution. The Luke of New Castle said that the government had a deep sense of the importance of extending as much as possible the growth of cotton. In Jamaica attempts were being made to introduce tbe cotton plaLt, but both there and in other colonies the great difficulty was not so much io the soil, as iu the want of sufficiently cheap la-1 bor. Oo receiving information that in Ceylon lands were being brought into cultivation for this i purpose, the government, departing from their ! usual custom if not parting with crown IanJ.4, ex-! cept upon sale, granted certuiu of these lauds for ; the period of five years, in order that tbe experi-1 mom might be tried. Ia the new colony at' tjneeosiauu, in Australia, attempts were also betug made to introduce the cotton plant, and he earnestly trusted that both there and io other of the British dominions, this experiment would be socc, st-tul . The Bishop of Oxford had beard with satisfaction what had fallen from the coble Duke. The difficulty which was experienced ia other couo tries of obtaining free labor to produce cotton, did not exist in Africa, where there was an abundant native population, whose cultivation of cotton would be attended with the additional advantage of introdnrire a wholesome aod lawful commerce, whk-U tau.J absolutely destroy the slave trade. - Lord Woodho-se read a short extract Irom a recent despatch of Dr. Livingstone, dated May 12. IS59, referring to his visit to Lake Sbirura, and the adjacent country : 'Cotton is cultivated largely, aod the further we went the crop appeared to be of the greater importance. The women alone were well clothed with the produce; the men being content with Koatakin and a cloth made of the bark of certain i trees. Every one spins end weave cotton. Even Ibe chiefs may be sees with tbe spindle and bag, which serves as a distaff. The process of maoufacte re is the roost rode and tedious that can be connived. The cotton goes through five pro cesses with the fingers before it comes to tbe loom. Time is of no value. They possess two varieties of the plant. One, indigceous, yields cotton more like wool than that of other countries. It is strong and feels rough in the band. The other variety ia from imported seed. A point in -Ms culture worth notice is, the time of planting has been selected so that the plants remain in the ground daring Winter, and five months or is if ' ter sowing they come to iraturity before the rains r begin ot insects com forth to damage tbe crop." On May 31, Dr. Livingstone wrote: "Only tis or three ef the Portuguese have

i

d! an ted cotton Tbe people of the Shire, oo tbe contrary, brought several bags of cotton for aato on oureecood visit, though no time bad elapsed to allow of planting since we Informed them of the existaoce of a market. The cotton trade is quite read? for development among them by agents, such as Sierra Leone supplies to the iget. Tbe ithabitacU are quite independent of the Portuguese, bat unless a late ordinance of the government of Portugal allows foreigners to settle ia the country, neither cotton nor sugar will be collected." Report bad at the sama time been received from tbe Niger, stating that a very great increase in tbe produce of cotton had taken place, but the extension of tbe supply in certain districts was mainly dependent oo tbe suppression of tbe slave - ., Earl Grey observed that it was quite true that in oar colonies tbe want of labor must for many years be aa obstacle to any sensible increase in .the production of cotton ; but in Africa tbere was an immense torritory fitted for cotton cultivation and a population sufficient to carry it on He was sorry to bear that tbe slave trade bad increased, and be was afraid that it increased activity was mainly owing to the assistance it derived from tbe A merican flag. To the infinite and eternal disgrace of the United States, that country allowed its flag to be prostituted for tbe purpose of enabling the slave traders to defeat tbe efforts made for the suppi essIon of the trade. The Indiana. Kepubliean Convention. Tbe Republican State Convention held at at Indianapolis, yesterday, was most auspicious in its promise of a most successful campaign in Indiana the coming season. The nomination of lion. Henry S. Lane for Governor, and of lion. O. P. Morton for Lieutenant Governor, was carried'by acclamation. A stronger or more judicious beginning of the ticket could not have been devised. Mr. Morton, it will be remembered, ran as tbe Republican candidate for Governor in 1856. Mr. Lane at first declined to be a candidate for nomination, his friends preferring to see him elected to the United States Senate next winter. Under the present arrangement, however, should tbe Republicans have a majority in the Legislature, Mr. Lane or Mr. Morton will probably be elected Senator, leaving a fit man iu the office of Governor. This is a combination of strength that insures a vigorous and effective canvass, and is a certain guaratee of triumph in Indiana next fall. The balance of the ticket will doubtless give general satisfaction. The decided tendency of affairs in Indiana is towards a conciliatory and harmonious position, on which all opponents of the Admin istration can unite. Willi such a result, andi with thorough organization and a stirricg j campaign, which are sure to follow, there can be little doubt as to the complete success of the Opposition in Indiana in October and November next. Cincinnati Gazette. 1 Indiana Republican State Convention. Indianapolis, Feb. 22. The Republican State Convention assembled at the Metropolitan Hall, at 9 o'clock this morning, and organized permanently by the election of Hon. I. A. Hackleman, of Rush county, President; Judge Otto, of Floyd county. Vice President; and Mr. M. C. Garber, of Jefferson county, Secretary. Committees wre appointed to report a plan of noting the order of business, and report a platform and resolutions. A Committee was also appointed to report the names of persons to serve as a Republian State Central Committee, to be composed of five members from the sixth (Indianapolis) District, and one from each of the other Congressional Districts. Tbe crowd of delegates being entirely too Jan'st-i r ettijournmg ' the Convention to State House Square. Motions were made unanimously nominating Col. Henry S. Lane, of Montgomery county, for Governor, and lion. O. P. Morton of Wayne county, for Lieut. Governor. Doth were carried, amid loud and prolonged clieers. The Convention is very large, and great entQusiasm prevails.

A late number of the Louisville Journal has the following : "Some persons at the Xorth talk of manufacturing flax bagging, and flax cloth incomparably superior in quality and quite as cheap as cotton goods, and thus they hope to be able to do without either slave grown hemp or cotton, and thus destroy the peculiar institution. Well, if they can "flax out" slavery, no one will have any reason to complain." Common Pleas Jwookshp. The name of our fellow citizen, Jeremiah M. Wilson, Esq., is announced in this week's paper as a candidate for Judge of this Common Pleas District. On a former occasion we distinctly made known our preferences for Mr. Wilson lor that office, and would again respectfully urrge his claims upon the consideration of the voters of the district. He is a gentle man of unblemished private character, and 1 t a t- 1 - - puee3s wgai xiiaiumt-nis wdicu ni mm in j an eminent degree for tbe office of Judge. Though thoroughly imbued with the principies ol Republicanism, he would not, it electeu. do in me jeasi innuencea or biased in tits i official conduct by party spirit or politics. He is, therefore, just the man the people of the district want on tbe bench, and we sincerely believe they will accept of him a- a candidate, and triumphantly elect him next October. Connersville Times. Distict Attor.kv. In another place will be found an announcement that R. M. Goodwin, Esq , of Brookville, is a candidate for District Attorney. Without detracting in any degree from the merits of any others who may be candidates, we can say of Mr. G. that he is a gentleman, a lawyer of fine abilities, and will if elected, make an able and efficient prosecutor. We can, therefore, cheerfully recommended him to the support of the Republicans of this Judical district. Connersville Times. S&" Hon. J. S. Newman, we understand, purposes removing bis family from Ceoterville to Indianapolis, on the first of next month, with the view of entering on the discharge of the Presidency of the Indiana and Illinois Central R.

This road runs from Indianapolis to Decatur, IIL Mr. X. will abandon the practice of the law, as his entire time will be devoted to the Presidency of the Ind. Central and Ind. and IIL Central

The Late Connty convention We omitted, intentionally, saying anything about the result of the late Republican county Convention, in oar last paper; and it was our intention, for the sake of harmony and ; good feeling, to permit it to pass entirely on- 1 noticed, except the publication of the proceedings, until we read an article in the Trej Republican, a papr published in Centre ville and edited by Isaac H. Julian, and Company. We deem it due to ourself t eay that the '

claim of that paper to beicg a Republican organ alone induces ua to notice it. The Central Committee issued a call for a County mass meeting to appoint delegates to the State Convention, and to determine when and bow candidates for county officers should j be nominated. Before the assembling of that meeting we took occasion to suggest that a Convention fairly representing the views of the Republican party, would more certainly secure harmony and success, now and hereafter, than by a popular vote. Our opinion for this is based on the fact that we know dissensions were exeited in the last popular nomination, which have not been and will not be easily healed. This arises from the fact that in such nominations the locofocos participate and sow 6eeds of dissensions by falsehoods and slanders. Our preference for a convention was a mere opinion which we were at all times prepared to submit to the decision of a county meeting, believing that such a meeting would decide as it did. We do not hesitate to express our opinions simp ly because others may disagree with us. We are in favor of free speech and a free press, aod we shall express our opinions regardless as to what any or all others may think, and will as cheerfully afford an opportunity to others to express their opinions through our columns. We have uniformly stated for the laat fifipn vpra our nreference for nonular nominations when they coum De aivestea oi undue excitement and the interference of locofocos. The Convention was called for an express purpose to nominate candidates for county j officers, and delegates to the State Conven- j tion. No other object was in anyway inai- j catedor thought of by the Central Commit- i tee. After the legitimate business of the Convention had been partially transacted. Mr. J. B.Julian introduced resolutions, the language and idea of which had been foreshadowed in the Republican a day or two before, a copy of which were perhaps intentionally not sent to us, authorizing a vote to be taken at the April election to indicate the choice of the Republicans of this county for a candidate (or Congress. We confess that we were taken somewhat by surprise, for we supposed that such a thing would not be attempted. We regarded the resolutions as out of order, and such as should not be entertained by the meeting, but we discovered that tbe thing had been arranged, and that the resolutions would be adopted. We opposed the passage of the resolutions, and a nisjoiity of the meeting agreed with us. ffferKisT'orine resolutions rallied their forces! and passed the resolutions. Had public no-j tice been given of the intention of Mr. Julian and his friends to introduce them, they mould not hare passed. In our remarks iu opposition to the passage of t'ue resolutions, we declared our self iu favor of a popular vote for the candidate for Congress, and only opposad the ana no action nau. Deen lanen in regara io the nomination, and the general wish we had heard expressed was that the Convention ! should not be held until after the National ! Convention shall have been held and its nomination made its platform adopted and published to the world that it was important tbe candidate nominated should fully endorse and support that nomination and staud in good faith upon the platform of the Republican party as laid in tLe Chicago j Convention that whoever is nominated 1 would be elected and that he should go to j Congress as a friend to the administration, if the Republicans should be successful, as we believed they would be. We contended that the effect of nominating on the first of April in this county was in effect holding a convention here at an early day when in other counties tbe matter had not even been thought of that there was an injustice done to can didates living out of the county to nominate Si, nere so sooa when they would probably ' ,awalt ,ne usual Ume' wnlc& has been trom , jJune to August. j The candidate for Congress should not be i nm;n,taii t th snm tima the JA,n for the Legislature and county officers are selected, because the minor offices are too apt to be overshadowed by the larger ones. Men will refuse to vote for a certain candidate for Representative, because that candidate is in favor of a certain man for Congress, and others will make an objection be cause another man is in favor of a different ' candidate for Congress. Combinations are too apt to be gotten up, and the whole election is made to turn upon the preference for candidates for Congress, instead of upon the merits aud qualifications of the respective candidates, for the different offices. The indications of this stale of affairs is already to be seen; and it will engender a degree of personal feeling that ought to be avoided if possible; and it can be done by making the nominations at different times. Without extending this article we invite attention to the following from the Republican: "A resolution, however, to extend the legitimate consequence ot nominating county officers by popular vote, so as to embrace the expression by this mode of tbe choice of tbe county for a candidate for Congress, was

ttrtnnovitly oppotrti by the discomfit ted foes of popular nominations but ia'this they rrlv Hefeatei. The pro-

9.rnm i .krt nf n.'Iiii'l wire-workers of whatever description was effectually set at naught and remorselessly trampled uuder foot by tha sovereign people." We were the only person in the convention who actively opposed the passage of the resolutiffn referred to, and we stated' distinctly that we were in f iror of a popular rote for the nomination. There wa no controversy as to the manner of nominating it was BimclT a question as to the timewjhen it should be made. We have never opposed a popular nomination for that office. In 1859 we advocated a popular vote for delegates. pledged to certain candidates, and it was - . . i

Pennsylvania preceding the Gubernatorial j and Presidential elections, which the Dem- ! ocracy regarded as imperatively necessary to secure the State for Mr. Buchanan. That money was applied to tbe object. This fact j establishes that the public money derived from printing and other jobs and assessments in departments, was used to start the Fill more movement on a practical basis, which was afterward rendered formidable by contributions from New York, through which the side-door op3rations were managed and Mr. Fremont defeated. Movements are now on foot to repeat this game next fall, but with less prospect of success. Gov. Reeder, one of the Kansas Governors whom a little experience of the beauties of Squatter Sovereignty has transformed into Republicans, has written a letter declining to be a candidate for the nomination for Governor by the "People's Party," of Pennpylvania. He alleges private reasons for dedining, but expresses his high sense ol ttie honor intended and adds that in his opinion , . , fit i- .- . 1 .k.;the nominee should be distinct and emphat.o iu his opinions on two points, the restriction f fclvrv. and nrotection for American raining ana manuiaciuring mieresis. i uuuui i . . . lt-:.l .

Testimony from all hands corroborates thit opinion. yTmrnt Kailw-ay Company received on Saturday a splendid sleeping car from the manufactory of Murphy &; Allison, Philadelphia. It was visited by quite a number of persons and highly commended by all who examined it. It is the best ven tilated car we have ever seen, and in points of comiort, either as a day or night car, is equal if not superior to any 011 western roads. It is highly finished and refloats credit on its inventors i.nd builders. The company will have a second car of similar pattern finished for their use in a few weeks- These cars are designed to run between Indianapolis and Columbus by way of Dayton and Xenia. They are labelled "Great Central Route sleeping Car." The Philadelphia Prej and Journal thus describes them: On entering one of these palace cars one is impressed with tbe idea that it must only be iutended for day use, being entirely free from partitions, posts or any other obstructions, when suddenly, as if by magic, the scene changes, and you find yourself surrounded by couches and curtains, all in order for sleeping, and the car divided into fourteen sections, each of which contains fiv berths, thus affording accommodation for seventy passengers. The backs of the sats reverse as in ordinary day cars, but when intended for sleeping purposes are supported in a vertical position by a slide drawn from under the seat. from which drops a brass pin, running to the floor. tJy this arrangement the length of the lower double berth is increased about 12 inches. The cushions for the seats are double, and about six inches thick, made of the best crimson plush, filled with pure curled hair. Under each cushion is a board, which is placed crosswise, ftom one seat to the other; the cushions are then spread out, and fill up the entire space between the backs. The upper double berth, which is folded up agsinst the ceiling, is then lowered by means of a double jointed binge, and rests upon the backs of the seats, entirely shutting in the lower beiths, making them as private as a bed chamber. Tbe fifth or upper berth is single, and is lowered m the same manner as the double: in k, ; . .j l . rods fastened to tho ceiling Each berth is ventilated independent of the other, and is supplied with heavy blankets and pillows. At each end of the car is a wash room with private room adjoining, with all the conveniences imaginable. I a' fact, so perfect impossible that anv real im. rovemen nl,! . - ; be suggested We feel proud in saying that the whole is the Production of Philadelphia irr-niu, H mechanical skill; and through whatever parts of the country these cars mss thev must refleet the highest credit on the patentee ndi builders. 1 .

The editor here alludes to the well-known piece in Webster's spelling hook, where . an old man found a boy in bis apple tree steal ing apples, who first pelted the lad with tufts of glass, which only excited his mirth and derisiou ; seeing that tufts of grass were in effectual, tha old man pelted the boy heartily with stones. Did not this answer to my first article "suggest stoning? 1 charged the editor with favoring mob force to reform smlul females m every article I have written. Why did he not deny it at once, and end the controversy T Why wait so lonyr and then dare me to point out the remark, that would "suggest any thing of the kind ? " The editor says: We do not consider any thing iu her article worthy of notice, except the charge that we were guilty of a wilful falsehood." In what article of mine did I use such language ? I presume tbe reader wnnl.1 jwrcaditv in tor tht I had thus rhartred the editor of the Itroadaze, (altho such v - P j

words were not used by me.) as that said miau m. wiijon, of Fayette editor was iu favor of stoning, altho' he diitSSSl

a y so in so many words. I am free to say, however, that I intimated as much, and I am now more inclined to think he intended to tell a " wilful falsehood," since he reiterates the base and unmanly calumny that I am still defending " the vile and impure;" when he knoK that such is not the case. The only difference between the Broadaxe editor and myself, is the manner of reforming them.He believes in mob law, whilst 1 approve the law laid down in tbe Gospel. - Guar itt. For tbe I'llladium. IV tint at Family Newspaper Should not be. Messrs Editors: Having read the controversy, if so it can be called, between the editor of the Broad Axe and your correspondent "Charity," I beg leave to offer few remarks. In tK ' r- iua tne -i'-w reierred to, inserted the paragraph concerning the erring girl without due reflection. It was a thoughtless uncharitable motive, such as he appears to be too apt in picking up and sending forth to the world. Charity remarked upon the glaring inconsistency of the editor's course, which, ia my opinion, was perfectly right, a it is to be presumed that he (the editor) is uot so pure that he cannot look upon sin with the least degree of allowance. I think "Charity's" view of the case a just and proper one, his quotations from holy writ are exactly to the point. It proved too much for the editor, and in the plentitude of his wisdom he concluded that discretion is the better part of valor "He thit lights and ram away, May lira to fiht another day." Ha has evidently most ingloriously shown ' the white feather by declining any further! controversy with Charity. In the fast Axe. the editor is unjust to Charity, charging him, for I differ with the editor in regard to your correspondent being a female, with rather encouraging "bawdy houses" and "sich like." There was nothing, not one word in either tf Charity's articles that any sensible person could draw any such a conclusion from, and while I wish there was a thousand Charity's in Richmond, I as heartily hope that tbe editor in question, stands alone in his glory. It may not be pleasant to the editor to hear it, but after two or three weeks have passed since he published to the world scandalous paragraph, there has been, and ia but one opinion in regard to it, and that is a vnit ersal censure of his course toward the "lair, frail feminine," as he terms her. In jiii mat issue ne is enocaea mat auy one would so pervert At language as to quote ' -ix " for are." Oh shade of Mnrrev proa- t hl . - . ain't he? A poor excuse it better than none' and finding that he could not make his rcor'tect us: V fiat A VPP7 nrftnAP man lio .r. ality "take" that it was understood irenprj any inai consistency was expected as well as protssions, lie becomes nghteouslv indi nant at the perversion of his good grammar, and declares the controversv ended. Let it rest, but I hope it will convince him of that which bis readers have long been aware of, mat a family newspaper should not be venicie tbrousu which to proclaim to all th world an 1 the ret ol mankind, the errors of uis neighbors.

Conley, Strattan, W. O. Stevens, and others, who had donated their premiams. The executive committee presented the premium list for the Spring Exhibition, for any suggestions members might make. , J. J. Cooley, stated that most of the eyes of the graes were killed; also, the peach, nectarine and most of the varieties of tbe cherry. He thoaght they were generally killed tbe first severe cold weather in Dec ember the trees being then rather full of sap. and the sleet that fell at that time made it more severe. W. G. Stevens, said that the fruit bads were killed on a peach tree he had trained to the south side of a wall be thought it not altogether the cold, as he Lad raised them in a higher latitude than this. O. J. Hyde, had found the buds of the peach, on Irvin Reed's place, growing bw his smoke house. J. IL Ha tton. had a peach grafted on a

plnm stock, that stood out until after the severe cold nt Deoemberjlie the removed it to his green house, and now it is quite fall ef bloom. He thoaght this mode might has 4 an influence on the peach, because the pliun always ceased growing sooeer in the fall. J. P. Lancaster, stated that a few years ago, they had the peach on the plum stockcrop seldom failed, and the fruit was always large and well flavored. ' W. R. Smith, thoaght he should bo 'very sorry to give up the idea of no longer having the peach, nectarine, and the finer varie-' tios of the cherry; he thoaght it was not altogether the effects of the eil J for in the extreme north of Maine, apples were raised successfullylind sent to York for exhiutstion. Io Wisconsin, they were now raising the cherry with success, where, but a few years ago.-'twas thought it could not be done. h. lie thought it must be tbe circunostaooeiby which they were surrounded, and would rocommend the appointment of a committee to

ascertain the damages done the present win- ; ter. and cirenmstauces connected therewith.? On motion of Benj. Straltaa, Dr. 0.
