He threatened him with the most terrible vengeance, and fivally started out onthe evening of the sed occurrence, armed with a gun and knife, to carry sitting em atog, atthe water's edge, on the oppo- aut showing himseif he fired twice | ag the freeaced, barely missing him each tlme. He then emerged from his retreat, jamped inte» skiff and cresaed over. On reaching the shore he asked the unforcanate object of his vengeance “if he waa the damned yrascel that bad ahot his chickens.” ‘Lhis was denied with the most solemn protestations of innocence, but Starkle was uneatistied, and in- sieted that he should go with him and see if his wife coulda't identify bim. This was agreed to, wheu they started in the direction of the house, the | miner's ‘comrade accompanying them a part of the | way. yy When they had reached the house Starkte asked his wife if fhat was the man, to which she re- piled that it was.

Some days since, our New Yurk correspondent informed us that the hard sbells (conchas duros)— s party which, tLough belonging to the democracy, in somewhat more moderate thaa the soft shells (conchas blandos), and isin notable opposition to the pollcy now pursued by Mr. Pierce's govern- ment—were about to assemble in Syracase, on the 12th of July, not only with the object of naming a candidate for Governor of the State, bat to make & demonstration against the Nebraska law and the Know Nothings. The convention wis held on the appointed day, and there was a good attendance of delegates from every part of the State. We should first, however, inform our readers that the preliminary steps in every Anglo- Ameri an conven- tion are to name a president, a dozen vice presidents | at least. and as many secretaries; and then proceed to the examination of the diferent points that pre” sent themselves. Paesing over an excited dispute that had arisen between two citizens, who claimed the right of representing the first district of Albany county—a dispute which was amicably settled by the admis- slon of the party who seemed legally elected, and whose political opinions were less distrusted than | the other—we will mertly say that the no nization of the President of the Conveotioa—Mr. Samael Beardsley, of Oneida—waa followed by such a tre- mendous burst of harras and applause that the on- tious assembled there were almost deafened by this patrictic demonstration. The President seemed av guirhed assembly, or expres in an intelligible man. ner his gratitude fcr the honor conferred on him. Mr. Beardsley, after a while, recovered his usual | composure, snd briefly detailed the objecta of the | convention, He reviewed the history of the demo- cratic party since 1847, “as six years of a political existence whi h has brought disaster to the party, aud bas covered it with dishonor—-s political exist- | ence, daring which the powerful elements of fraud | and corruption had muitiplied.” He had hoped the year previous that sound national principles would lixally predominate in the councils of the party, aud that the coming of Gen. Pierce into power | would ensure their "he tak but the respect he had once profeased fur him ceased, and he (Mr. ley ) condemned in the most energeti: manner, | notonly the conduct of Mr. Pierce, but that of every individual member of the Cabinet, as having lacked the fortitude to resist the influence of in- trigue and corrupticn. 1 presicent’a speech being con lnded, » com- mittee was named to draw up a series of resolutions, which were a faithful See of the opinions | | and fdeas of the delegates, but, before retiring, each Governor of the State. Mr. Greene C. Bronson, ex- administrator of the customs of New York, was thea roclaimed asthe most wortby, and of all the candi | dates who pretented themselves, ho without ; doubt will triomph in the next November eleotion. Jn proclaiming lis own merits, he levelled another attack, somewhat more energetic than cotta, | . porter hint | from his posi- | against the President, Mr. Pierce, among other things, of having fallen tion as one of the purest and moat honorable indi- | viduals of the democratic ranke, in 4 self to be led by the counsel of interested varties, with principles which they would use atany time as | instruments to accomplish their own ends, | _ With respect to the disturbance that took place | Detween the members of the convention the Know Nothings, we see—and not without satisfuc- tion—tbat nothing serious happened, and that the large assembly separated in peace and harmcny. A Syracose correspondent expresses in a few words what can be hoped from the politi:al men who con- gregated there :—“ To glance at the convention,” he 8, “it is surprising that we find there so few men of other times—icen known as leaders of the Genocsacy. With rare exceptions they ace all new and uvknown names, which can add but litle tothe strength of bes on organization that has not tue expe iex age or the hone thipe youth.” A witness who was present made this observation :-~ They secm sufficiently respectable to exercise an infinen ein the elections.” The convention being thus jadged by peraons | | #be, without doubt, are capabie of doiag so, we Lave nothing farther to add, bat wili proceed to give the account that bas been furnished us of | | another convertion, composed of men of all parties, ¥hich met at Worvester on the 20th of the same | month. To afford our readers some idea of this mecting (whi b, in the order that distinguished it, | differed from the ore at Syracuse) it will be suffi- , Clent to give a brief outline of the resolutions unaai- | nowy adopted. The maia design of these resolu- tions was to make up a new party ot those who exist at present in the Anglo American Union, under the | tide of the “Republican party of Maseacinsetts.” ized labor in all the States, anithe introduction of | Sree coil principles, on the basis of eternal justice, in accordance wish the ideas of the fathers of the country; and the resolutions farther require that the general government shali remedy past errors and conform for the futnre to these principles, | They also call for the repeal of the fugitive slave | law, the exclusion of Southern institations in Kan- | sas and Nebraska, as in all other Territories ecquircd or hereafter to be acquired, and the protection of the constitutional ri of every. citizen who to States, These same resolutions claim for the State of Massachusetts the 1ight of having laws whic] will overtarn the pretensions of Sonthern landhold- ers, ond reocmmené that during the present moath of Anguste national convention be assembled to | supgeat — Pace rei ihe ojos Regi fv thought | peceasary ing he ol vier. | Sach “is @ faithfal resvme of the | adepted by the Worcester convention, and we do , Bot believe it necessary to paint with very vivid co- | lors the spirit that reigned fe andin Syra- cure, in order to prove to our readers the continued irreconcilable antagonism between the North and | the South, fomented direetly or indirestly by the men who are now at the head of affairs in the Uni- | ted States, i Hah cS ae me od thos rince @ coarse practical jeke was pla: upon a you gentleman named Jeeror, a ler x in the dry ba ment of Mr. Ie, on Fourth street, by Stephen Smith, a young gentleman who formerly edited the Forest Gariand. \etters purporting to come from an intelligent and romantic ont to Jessup, and he, being qnite a ladles’ man, | re-poudeid in amorous epieties The coi nd ence was continued for several weeks, and at last a Mmectipg was agreed upon.

Not satlsfled wih this, Smith had the letters published, wits « ch commente and slight al‘ering of nemes as in- fo med everybody who was meant. Jessup, who is a worthy but sersitive young man, was much an- noyed by the consciousness of the ridiculous tion in which he was placed, ani the jeers of his j acquaintances. Discovering that Smith, to whom ; he bad in the confidence of friendship shown his letters, was the author of the hoax, he was na‘n- rally stung to the quick.
