The last UdUhdViugh Recorder contains an address to the freemen of Orange coun ty, on the subject of it convention, by the corresponding committee of that county. We shall take an early opportunity to lay this address before our readers. The ar guments by which it enforces the neces sity ef a Convention are placed upon too solid a foundation to be shaken by nil the sophistry unci misreptesenlition which have been employed by our opponents to blind and mislead the people: they are not new, it is true, but they are forcibly stated, and irrefragable, and cannot be re peated too often. We feci convince:.', that were the real merits of the question laid before the people, -were they left to their own impartial judgment, and to follow the plain dictates of common sense and expe rience, their decision would be almost unanimous in favor of a Convention. The friends of this measure, and of the peo ple, need only to exercise patience and perseverance, and their object will be ac complished. No great end useful under taking was ever effected, without having first to encounter and overcome obstacles thrown in the way by the. selfishness of ambition, the craftiness of design, or the corn citedncss of ignorance. The people will in the end ptrc.ive their true inter ests, und the exertions of the West be crowned with success. We learn, from a publication in the Na tional Intelligencer, that the contractor for the fifth class of the Grand Naitu: 1 Lot tery has failed, and refused to pay the cap ital pr ize. (S 100,000,) us well as the small er pi izes; and has withdrawn himself from Washington, without giving the managers any hope that the prizes ever will be paid. It is further stated, "that, after mature consideration, the most enlightened legal counsel has g'uen the opinion, that ihe Corporation of the City cf Washington it in noway responsible for the piytneni ef the prizes drawn iu ihe late filth class of this lottery." The capital prize, it will be recollected, was diawn by a gentleman in Richmond, Va. and was pun based on the faith ol a drrum. The nn-fortunaie holder cf the ticket has doubtless now leatnt, from sad experience, what " stuff dream are made ot ," and iuund, that the fancies of our sleeping, as well as our waking hours, ate as illusive nnd unsubstantial as the castles and palaces which fancy often sees in the llr eting 1 louds of he a v en. It i very &g fee ble to have pleas. it, t dreams; but it is a w caknrss to found any hopes of advantage or good fniiutie upon them: the oc currence of painful dreams produces men tal suffering at the time ; but no well reg ulated mind w jtild suffer the 111 to disturb his peace in his Wak'ng hums Dreams, in short, are generally the children of an idle br.un, Ii, jot of nothing but ta n fail's) .

To the fiicn.K and promoters ol Sunday Schcois, no sinister motive can be imputed ; they give instruc tion gratuitously they give it. too, cr.i days which are devoted to rest, by many lo indolence, and by more to something even worse than indolence: and they im part this instiuciion, in numerous instan ces, to those who, hut for this sacred cha nty, would be led to grope their way through life in all the darkness and vs retch ednrss of mental and moral ignorance; they impart it, too, to many, who would otherwise cntct upon ihe busy theatre ol tho world vith the mind tomcvv hat cr.-
