The mdewalk ts no longer obstructed by these wirepullers, but all have fled to some other clime, and are, like Micawber, waiting for something to turn up. But the aspirants of Presidential and gubernational honors are not so easily frighieaed of by the heat. A number of these aspirants have been here all through tho hot weather, laying their plans and concocting their schemes as if for hfe or death. There is a perfect army of spirants for the nomination of Governor next year ; and the Gifferent Presidential candidates are Anding no little wouble to steer clear of breakers, with so many clamoring to be placed in the snug position of Governor of Pevusyivasia, Amonget these, and one who is working the hardest for the nomination, in the Governor (Mr. Packer); but from what source be expeots to get aby strength Iam unable to see, enless the republicans take him up, for he was turacd out 1 the democratic cburch mt the March convention, and was Intormea "a lasguage ‘that no politician could mistake that want him in their synagogue.

SHEMIES IN FAVOR OF WM, Hl. SEWARD. ‘Those opposed to Seward in thie Stave assert that they are satisiied that Cameron ie playing into that gentle- man’s bands. The strenuous denial of Cameron and his friends, that they favored the proporition of calling the National Convention by a union formed by the opposition members of the next ress, is considered & couciusive argument that the Genera! favors or has a private agree ment with Seward.

Who can enlighten us upon subject? Another correspondent from Philadelphia thus speaks of @ meeting held in favor of Wise for the Presidency:— PuitapELrHa, July 15, 1859. ‘WISE FOR THE PRESIDENCY, ‘The friends of Gov. Wise had a meeting at the Wetherill House last evening. There was quite a goodly number gathered there for the purpose of canvassing the morits ‘and the strength of the Virginia gentleman for the race in 1860. The Governor had his good points ss well as bad discussed, and his probable streogth for the race estima- ted. It was thought that by a little judicious management the Pennsylvania delegation could be secured for him im the Charleston Convention, and when nominated they could easily carry the Keystone State. Many of those present thought that Pennsylvania owed Virginia the vote Of the State in the Charleelon Convention from the fast of the cordial support of Buchanan by the democracy of that State in 1856. The meeting was a lengthy one, aud a good exchange of views wok place. A Mr. Bennan occupied the chair. Most of those present considered that Dougias has a poor show in the Keystone State; his aftiliation with poor For- ney was consicered ng a settler to his (Douglas’) strength in Pennsylvania. All thought that Wize bad the inside tack, with a betier chance than avy of his competitors, To the South they thought belonged the nominee, {nas much as the laat twe Presidents were Northern men, aad they knew of no better man than Governor Wise, as he, with bis bold and daring way, could carry everything before him. The movement for Wise in Pennsylvania is, without a doubt, of more importance than moat of his competitors give eredit to; infact, most of the aspiran's ot the democr ‘hool have heretofore been consoling themeelves that Governor Wise, however strong he may be im the Sousb, has no strength north of Mason & Dixon's Vine; but in thia they will find themgclves mistaken; the Governor is puebing his claims with all the boldness io bis power, The ceucus adjourned about 11 o’clock, to meet again aboct the Ist of September, when it was boped that the beat would allow them to spread them- NEW JERSEY POLITICS.

Im the midst of the boated term politics here are get- ting opto fever heat, Tho gubernatorial question is the all absorbing topic, The republicans have been deceived in their present Governor, who has turned out to be better ited for the drudgery of a country practice than for the duties of the Chair of State. In fact, no weaker man ever filled our executive chair. His advisers haye been men of even smaller calibre then himseif—Freezs, of the State Gazette, and Grandin, aseven by nine lawyer somewhere in Trenton. The republicans wil] not be caught this time Dapping, but will put forth their first class men as candi- dates; and the democrats, if they expect to succeed, must dotheeame. The anti. element is still work- ing among the democracy to their injury, and every effort ‘Will be made to introduce the vexed question into the con- vention that meets at Trenton in August, Mr, Buchanan has still come strong friends in this Siate, although he committed a great error when he surrendered up the mansgement of the “an te (Wright aad Stockton. res UAW Anns Brera oneroe Bat was done to break down Col.

From Kansas wo havo the following sosount of the proceedings of the Constitutional Convention:— ConstrrvTional Hau, Wranporre, Kansas, July 8, 1859. } ‘The time of the Constitutional Convention has been en- tirely occupied gince its organization by the contest over the admission of the delegates from this county of Wyan- dotte, The queetion was finally settled this morning by the exclusion of the gentlemen claiming seats in the Con. vention.

Remarkable Effects of the Thunder Storm in Connecticut. In addition to the effects of the thunder storm of Wed- nesday already published, we gather some interesting and curious items @f its results in different places from our Connecticut exchanges. Tp North Haven the electric discharges were fearfully frequent, The New Haven Palladium says that near tbe reeidence of Mr. J H. Thorp, the lightning struck ten times on ten different trees within a quzerter of a mile putvon The trees were of different kinds—locust, ¢!m av ball. We do not remember that we ho a more remarkable frequency of electrics. go short & distance, The same paper has the foliowing:— Mr. D. Clinton, of North Haven, had a valuabe horse struck by lightning, and killed He was with his span of horses in the and standing very near them wi they were struck. Both of them were prostrated, but one of them recovered, and Mr. Clinton was not injured, 1p Hemden, as weil as in other towas to the northward, there wae a!so a violent hailstorm, some of the stones be- ig not jess than baif an inch in diameter. Twenty win- dow panes were broken in one house by the bail, and the damage to crops by this storm is very great. ‘The dwelling of Mr. Bradley, in Hasaden, about halt a mile east of Centerville, was struck by lightning and badly sbivered, but we do not learn that the inmates were injured, ‘All along the live of the Canal railroad we hear of barns and houses prostrated by the wind, and of buildings struck, while Lhe crops suilered terribiy, and the country looked desolate enough. ST ative hear that several buildings were uni In Meriden the hailstorm was exceedingly violent, and the thermometer sudcenly feil from 96 w 71 deg. Ran- dolpb Lindsley’ Eaves ‘was entirely deetroyed by tho norm. It wasa building, erected by him at a cost of aaa $1,000, ont contained: The broken part toppied over and fell, sirthing op the point and stick mg deep into the ground. The crying shed of the American Comb Company, at their bleach works in Hanover, was completely wrecked by the storm. The glasa roof, 200 feet long, was entirel destroyed. Mr. Raver also bad several sueds rated The livery stable just cast of the depot at Weat Meriden was struck by ligbtoing and eet on fire, but the flames were extipguiabed. The storm seems to have been more violent at Meriden than at any other point from which we have yet heard, Dr. Tate, to whom re indebied for information of ite raveges there, says that throughout the town trees, fences and crops were g! prostrated, and the ruin extends for miles around. To illustrate the power of the wind, ove elm tree as large as « barrel was toro from the ground, leaving a hole more than six feet deep. Hickory trees as large as a man’s body were splintered and uprooted, and packing boxes at Parker, Whapies & Co.’s were taken by the wind and buried through the air like children’s toys. ‘The storm seemed to break its force against Weat . and from either side it rushed down into the valleys With fearful eflect. Dr. Welles, No. 40 Whitney avenue, Fairhaven, was standing in hie door when the lightuing struck ® tree in his deoryard, tearing up the ground for # distance of some twelve fee: from its trunk, and throwing the sod nearly to the street fence. ‘On the harbor the sudden equall capsized quite a num. ber of boats, though the occupants were fortunately rescued. One tailboat was capsized near Grapevine Point, and two boys who were tn it would have perished but for the exertions of two of the employés of the carriage shop who went to their aid, Out in the country the damage was immense, especially tothe crops. In Orange the corn, oats, grass, &o., are almost whol'y prostrated. In Norwich Vightning struck the house of Mr. W. M. Converse, sod blackened the gilded cornice round the ceilings, but did no other harm. It struck the barn of G. E. Brown, astonished a horse that stood within two feet of its path, and was not burt, and took the hoops off » water cask, spilling the fluid. ‘Tt knocked down Mr. Asa Nash while be was waiking in the greet, but he soon re- covered. It struck an Irishman in another part of the city, and played the mischief in the telegraph office, Tag Disasrer on THE SovrnerN MIcniGAaN RatLkOAD—VERDICT OF THE CORONER'S JURY.—The Coroner’s: Jury in the cage of the Southern Railroad disaster have completed their investigation and made their verdict. 1s fully exonerates the company from all biame; finds that while the embankment and culvert were very thorouguly and substantially built, and of sufficient capacity for al! the water that has been accustomed to rum there, or hae been there for twenty years past, yet it would hive had {REY “Gs this was. rhcy say (G5 Excl OR care and caution, and the devotion as well a¢ confidence of the men in the safety of the culvert is proved by their being found dead at their posts.
