Scott, of Leon county; Lieutenant Gover- nor, Thomas M. White, of Jackson; for Congress, Jahn Friend, of Nassau. The Le Roy (N. Y.) Gazette, with more truth than Poetry, says:—There never was so corrupt a body insfde the Assembly chamber, or outside the State Prison, as the present majority of the Assembly. Most of the Southern elections are to take place this month. In South Carolina on the 14th, 15th and Pgh ‘| 16th of April; in Louisiana on the 17th and 18th; in Georgia from the 20th to the 25th, and in North Caro- lina on the 20th, 2lst and 22d, Florida closes the Ust on the 4th, 5th and 6th of May, At & democratic meeting held at Augusta, Ga., on the 24 tnst.,a large crowd was addreswa_ vy ston. Linton Stephens. ‘This gentleman,” says thie Constt- tuttonalist, “was particularly severe upon those Skowhegan statesmen who, he said, have come among us, not for our good, but, like the painted mistresses of King George, for our goods, At this Btage of the eloquent speaker's remarks one of those carpetbag Georgians from some remote section of New England became obgtreperous, and had to be conducted to the door.” Mr. William A. Graham, of North Carolina, has written a letter, in which he argues against the pro- priety of the people of North Carolina adopting the Proposed new constiution. Cassius M. Clay is expected to arrive in New York this week, and will proceed to Kentucky and stump that State for the nominees of the Chicago Conven- tion. ‘The Boston Advertiser says Mr. Seward has express- ed vo some friends an intention of making a very ex- tensive foreign tour after the prospective downfall of the present adarinistration. ‘The Norfolk (Va.) Journal is led to believe, from the appointment of Generat Wells as Governor of Vir- ginia, that a new era of intensified radicalism is about opening on the people of that State. The Journal continues:—“We have no desire to alarm Mr. Jay Cooke as to the condition of his investments im the South; but this we will say to him, that if he succeeds in putting Virginia or any one of her cities under negro rule the bonds that he may hold against gala gona nf ra gana ten on.” The Augusta (Ga.) Constitutionalist, April 7, does not like the interference of General Meade in regard to the nomination by the conservatives of Judge Irwin for Governor and remarks:—“The cry of in- eligibility went forth against him, and, through mo- tives of policy, Judge David Irwin, a most exemplary aud true hearted man, but po- Iitically at variance with the great body of the democracy, was substituted for Judge Ceese. Extraordinary as wo deem this selection, we acknowledged its prudential nature and pro- posed to help the new nominee all we could as con- sistent journalists. While everything seemed har- monionusly progressing, and but little doubt existed of the triumphant return of one of Georgia's noblest sons and the ignominious defeat of the upstart ex- press agent, the same cry of ineligibility is again resonant, and Judge Irwin 1s compelled to follow in the footsteps of his predecestor, We learn that he will issue an address to the people of Georgia ina few days.” The Constitutionaliat places the name of General John B. Gordon at the head of ita columns as the conservative candidate for Governor, The thirty-fifth annual meeting of the American Anti-Slavery Society 1s called to assemble in Stetn- ‘way Hall, in this city, onthe 13th May next, Charter election in Albany April 14. It is stated, upon rather questionable authority, however, a strong effort is being made to induce Governor Holden to withdraw as a candidate in North Carolina, in order to heal the disaffection in the republican party.

The crowd in and about the little church was very dense, and the woman had great difficulty in making her way through it on leaving the church. On regainihg the street, to her inexpressible horror, she discovered that the infant in her arms was dead, and in tho poignancy of her anguish gave yent to the most heart-rending cries, which had the effect of gather- ing about her quite a crowd of eager to as- certain the cause of her An officer of the Eighth precinct, not fully eth the cir- cumstances of the case, and th: e Woman was pu creating disorder, took her in goatee and conve her to the station house.
