UtHDKNH, ZO- From Thence to Hoiilh KeiisltiK louWhere the Famous Museum Ih luspecled and Home of Iih Woiidi'm Hie Described. London, July .'til, 1SS',). Hditor Citizen: This is t lie day thai we longed to have willi us all the hoys and girls in HuiicoiiiIk.'. Of course we thought of our own little ones eiiielly, I ml still we 1 it wish lor all the others, when we stooil in the centre of the hijj Zoological Garden, in which there were liunilreils of bright chiltlreii waiting their turn to mount to the hack of one of the largest elephants we ever saw, who would walk with dignity up to the seal fold erected for the purpose, allow his precious luirdeii to alight, and wait pa tiently until his hroad hack was covered by another score of happy urchins, and then march gravely away along the paths, and lietwecn the beds of sweet, bright flowers, until he thought these had received their share of fun, anil then go hack again to change his load. There was a sort of fascination to watch the huge least, so penile towards his little friends and admirers. There were several elephants employed ill this way, hut none .seemed to give and take the same degree of pleasure as the one that we have described; and there were also some very line, large camels, with their curious humps, anil they too were doing good service in riding the children. When we entered the monkey house we again cxplainicd "Oh! if our children were here" what fun they would have in watching the luiiiiy antics of the nunicr 1011S monkeys, of all kinds and descrip tions, who are swinging and climbing, and jumping, and chattering to each oilier ami to all of us. One bright little fellow, like a flash sprang to the side of the cage, thrust out his saucy paw, and olueked a flower from the hat of a young lady, but upon smelling at it and finding it had no perfume he threw it at therighi fill owner, in high disgust, and went back to chattering more than before, no doubt telling how he had lieen taken in. We are not ourselves so far removed from childhood but that we would have liked to watch the monkeys all day, but many other things are to be seen in the few remaining days of our visit. So away we go to South Kensington Muse um, and wander through its lengthy cor ridors, and see more strange and curious things than our poor brain can possibly contain, and into its gallery of sweet paintings where we enjoy the famous cartoons of Raphael, seven in number, represeiitingseenes in the New Testament. The one which seemed to us the Ix'Sl was "The death of Ananias" and it was ecr taiulv not calculated to encourage false hood. The apostle seemed to scak again "Sold ye the laud for so much" ami tiie poor wretched liar seemed at this eery moment, to have fallen at their feet. Another most wonderful painting was the death of poor, sweet Amy Kohsart, in which her beautiful body is lying prone on the rough stones, at the bottom of the terrible pit into which she had been lured by the wretch Vardrcy, imitating her husband's call. Hon or and remorse are well depicted in the face of the earl, as he discovers the body of his neglected wife, whose sweet character is so beauti fully portrayed in Scott's Kcnilworth. Our next enjoyment is a view of "The Arthur Memorial," a magnificent obelisk, erected in Kensington Gardens in mem ory of the I 'rinec Oonsorl. We arc told lliiil the cost was a hall million ol pounds sterling, and can readily believe it. The height is two hundred and seventy-live lect, and it covers a gigantic statue, seated, of 1'iince Arthur, in burnished ibrass, while around its base are statues in marble of distinguished men of all pro fessions. We took time to count them, .and found them to uumlier one hundred .and seventy-two, while at each corner ;iUT groups representing agriculture, en gineering, commerce, manufactures, and .on 11 lower level LurojH.', Asia, Africa, .ami America, each ol which cost ten thousand pounds, and looks as if the money had Ik-cii laillilully expended. A weary walk through the vast Brit ish Museum winds up a fatiguing day, mid we can onlv leel, that wc wish wc were in a comfortable, papoose-looking concern such as Cleopatra occupies, where, wc would at last heat rest from aching bones and burning corns. Wc Rooked upon the mummy spread out to the gaze of the reckless herd, which is Iain-led "Cleopatra," und thought can this I be the end of the lovely Kgyptianyuecn ': Truly with King Solomon wc cry "Ynu .ity of vanity, all is vanity." "A little bit of moralizing now which vou may print or not print, as you like. It will "do us good all the same, to re lieve my mind of these thoughts. Wc fire traversing some of London's streets, worse than any we ever saw in New York or elsewhere. Abandoned, drunken, dissolute women on every side, men no better; aye, much worse, when we cry out oh! lor a Dickens to write this up, to let these l.nglish sec the same ol their life, and warn to what it is leading, Do you remember his nKiiitig sentence' in "The Tale of Two Ciiies," how the handsome king and the ugly ipieen sal upon the throne of France, anil the poor jiny had his flesh lorn willi led hot irons ;liecitc he failed to take oil' his hat when i company ol dirty monks passed at a .distance, find how this sowed the seed of the dreadful revolution and the bloody guillotine; how nil Saturday last the 'granddaughter of Juccn Victoria was married, as our cabman told us, to the "llearl of Fife," who was forthwith made "Dook," and the marriage was solemnized by a high official of the estab lished church, anil the bridal party all partook of the blessed sacra nun I, ami the chimes rang merrily, merrily, and the big bells pealed, and iealed, and pealed ; in short all was done to show what u solemn and holy thing is mar riage ; and yet before the chimes had censed, or the bells stopped pculing, un der the shadows of every church in Lon don, not excepting Westminster Abliey , I St. Paul's Cathedral, can lie found neons of poor forsaken women, Ouecn Victoria's subjects plying their awlul, soul destroying enlling. Oh! ye, who to day have solemnized a royal marriage so solemnly, so appropriately, cannot you do something to relieve or cheek this dreadful evil ? If not, "What will the harvest Iw?" T. W. I'. A Ureal Hucei-Hs, Ri'ki.in, August 15. All accounts of the cxieriments with the smokeless powder at the Spaudau sham tight con cur in saying that no smoke was visible at a distance of 300 ynrds, and that no sound was heard lieyond a slight tapping. A strange effect was produced by the sKX'tacle of a large mass of troops in a firing position seemingly inactive, but really pouring forth deadly tire. HI-: WAS Kll.tllV, A NeKro Murderer lays the I't ii nlly of HIM Crime, Jacksonvii.i.i;, Fin., August 1 fi. I til I Westmoreland, the negro murderer, was hanged here to-day. He was in com pany with Father Kenny and Sister Mary Ann from ail early hour in the morning, ami up to the moment he swung through the seallold, exhibited a degree of nerve almost unprecedented. At 11 o'clock he was led from his cell in lb. county jail, and in passing through I he tiflice to the yard, he was pet tail led to tarry a few minutes to bid good bye to his brother, n prisoner ill the jail for wile beating. The scene was very affecting. The hi ot lier broke down and wept ; but Hill said " That won't do no good; brace up, and when you gel out do right and you won't have to die iike me." As he was led to the seallold by sheriff I'.icvard, the condemned bad mail recognized several acquaintances on the wall of the jail yard, to several of whom henodded, anil to tine he smiled, anil gave a significant wink, lie repented .ill the responses alter Father Kenny in a loud clear voice, and when his hands had been pinioned by the sherifl" he straightened hituscll tip anil said : "I ant ready." The sheriff dropped his handkerchief as a signal, and a young Englishman named Hall, who had voluuiceici, I lieu sprang the trap at exactly I I I- o'clock. His neck was broken in the fall and life was extinct in four minutes. Through Sister Mary Ann, Westmoreland sent a parting message lo his mother in Georgia. He also left a written statement addressed to Hamil ton jay, city editor ol the Tiiiics-I'iiion. in which he avowed coniplctercpciitaiice. and expressed no li-ar ol death. The crime lor which he was hanged was com mitted in this city on the night of April 5, ol this year. Westmoreland went home drunk ; and alter iiiarteling with his wile shot her through lite heart, in the presence ol several people, lie was a habit mil wile beater, lie was born in Atlanta, and was t wenty-live years old. The execution was witnessed by about 1 .Dim people in the jail yard ; but thcsui rounding streets, rools of houses, and trees were lilted with negroes anxious to catch a glimpse of the terrible scene Another Trusted Man Hliort. l'lin.Aiilil.i'itiA, I'.i., August lo.

Scay has expressed any inclination of proceeding by reipiisitiou against Calhoun and Williamson, for dueling in Cherokee eoutitv, is the purest sensationalism and without foundation. I'.ov. Scay positively declines to sav one word to any body about his itilcutions; and to all interviewers he merely said il would be improper lo talk. He went from here to Sheffield and Florence, and had done nothing more than communi cate with Solicitor l.nsk of the Cherokee circuit court, calling his attention to the matter. Cniv. Scay could proceed only on a warrant swornout by somccilizens, and no Alabamiau has been found who saw I he duel or can make affidavit. Onlv (tcorgians were there.

T. Scott, of Fauipiier. Hasil Ciordou, ol Kappahninioek couutv, was then elected chairman of the Central Committee vice Senator JohnS. Harbour, declined. The following platform was uuani niously adopted, after which Hit conven tion adjourned sine die. "The Democratic party of Virginia in convention assembled, proud of its pasl achievements both in State and national affairs, pledge the same steadfast tidelil lo the best interests ol the people in tin Int urc, and declares to the people of Vir ginia, First . we congratulate the peo ple of Virginia that through the wise legislation and administration of the Democratic parly, the public schools have been preserved in cllicicnt operation, and their accoinniodat ions extended ; that the resources uccessarv for the con duct of i he government, in all its depart ments have been secured, and that the debt ijucstion lias been put in the train of linal acceptable set I lenient. We would reprobate as mischievous to all interests the re-opening ol an issue which has been the source of so much embarrass ment and vexation to llie common wealth. We confidently hok to its solution upon the lines of adjustment, which the people have endorsed, and which the I cino eratic representatives have faithfully ex ecuted. Second, the Democratic party founded the public school system of the common wealth ; the present ctiicieney of the system is the result of Democratic laws and Democratic elfort. We will care lor and support the public schools until every child shall be able to secure the benefits of education. To this end wc lavor liberal appropriations by the ledcral .uovernnicnt, apportioned nniony the States in ratio of the illiteracy ol i heir population. Third, the Democratic parly regards the encouragement and fostering ol agriculture as all important to the pros perity of Virginia, and that Kccuriui valuable iinminiution is necessary to tin full success ol agriculture in ihc State. Therefore, wc declare the Dcmocrutic party in ils sympathies and its policies is the liiend ol agriculture, and will by all proper legislation advance, foster and secure agricultural interests in the Slate. Fourth, the Dcinocrrtic party has been, is, and will be, the friend of the laborer, lis ell'orts has ever Urn to dignity labor and clcvatethe toiling man as faras prac ticable. It will prevent a eonllict between convict and hottest labor. It isopposed lo and will resist the introduction of foreign pauper labor, and we lavor a collection of statistics by the labor bureau of the I'nited States and the consideration by it of all matters which lend to the im provement and advancement ol the laborer. I'ilth, the Democratic party will foster the ovslcr industry of Virginia, lor the benefit of her own citizens, and favors the culorceutcul of the policy of preserving to her own citizens I he free use of all natural oyster locks, beds and shoals, as regula ted by law, and will oppose the iransicr or surrender of public rights therein to individuals or corporations. Sixth, the party renews its adherence lo the principles and policies on the tarill and internal revenue so olieii enunciated in the plalformsof the Statcand national conventions of the Democratic parly and sustained by the voice of the people at the polls, and especially docs it insisl upon the immediate abolition of the tax upon tobacco and fruit brandies. Seventh, the Democratic party of Vir ginia lavois a complete reiuonel iatiou and tree coinage ot silver. I'ihth, we are in favor of a law re 1 1 1 ti i j i lt the agricultural inst it ul ions ol 1 h-Slate to be placed under the control oi pract ical farmers. Ninth, wc recommend a revision of the laws imposing laxeson land with a view lo relieving it o any unjust or unciual taxation now imposed on it. Ten Ji, we endorse the wise, patriotic i ami judicious administration ol (mv. ! Filzliuh bee. I Ulciciilh, we believe that the men who were disabled in the set vice of the Slate during the lale eonllict between llie States, and the widows of those who lost their lives in such service, arc deserv ing of aid and protection, and wc lavor such liberal appropriations within the revenues of the Stale as will tend lo this end. Twelfth, while earnestly in favor of re forming the tarill upon just .conserva I i vi and economic principles, we recognize thai the issues and conditions which eon front us in Virginia in the imeiidiiieon test arc of immeasurably more importance than tarill reform or reduction of Federal taxation. Important, as theseoucslions arc, every business interested in the State, every social interest, every politi cal interest demands the Democratic parly, the party of the coplc, the party of K'ace. ;ood order ami ood govern ment, which has salcly and wisely con ducleil the trovernntent of the Stale through the trying and troublous times ol t he past, shall be continued in power. We oppose the Republican party as a party of boss rule, as a party of sectional strife. as a party of hi;h taxes, of corruption and extravagant exjcndilure of public rev enues, of unjust and oppressive treat ment of the people ofthe Soul hern States. the creator ot trusts, the promoter ot monopolies. We oppose the republican party as a stirrer up of strife between the races, as the false lnend ot the col orcd race, and enemy ofthe white race, and the candidates which we present to the judgment of enlightened and patri otic icop1e."

The Fourth Ueimenl Hand, twenty three pieces, under the leadership of Prof. Miles Deal, arrived here from IIickor yesterday afternoon. It is ,i maj;iiilieeiit musical combination, and beyond all doubt, the most thoroughly trained and elegantly equipped band in the State. The members are as follows: Miles Deal, leader; A. C. Link, A.

They came to Ashcville to make music for the American Carnival which closed last evening, and during their stav in the city will occupy apartments al the Sv:iii tunioa. They made a brilliant appear ance in their handsome uniforms, ami re ceived many compliments from the crowds which throimcd about them when parading the streets. The music they made was simply perfect , while their 'Irillin was the finest we have ever seen. The commands were simple blasts from an ordinary baud v hist Ic, not a word biinij spoken. So perfect were they in ihc drill that loud cheers and torrents of appreciative applause greeted their su perb evolutions. They took the town, and eminently deserved the unstinted praise they elicited from 'Jiose who heard I he music they made and witnessed the excellent drills thev went tlirou-di with. The managers ofthe Carnival made no mistake in securing llie services of the Fourth Keimcnt Hand for their closing uihl, and we doubt if a liner musical arcation could have been procured in the South than tiie one which javc such universal satisfaction last eveuini' Fverv member ol" the baud is a gentleman, and a musician of no ordinary talent, and Tin- CmzKN lakes pleasure in sayinu that the impression the Fourth Kcinicut Maud lias made in Ashcville will be both pleasant and lasting. It is the best baud in the Slate and Tin: Cmzi: is proud ol it. Come to Ashcville oltcncr, gentle men. You will always find a sincere and cordial welcome. 1I.OS1, OI- THi; CARNIVAL. An lCiilertaiiiiiient Tlial Will Mil Hoou be Forgotten. The Carnival closed last nielli. A more perfect success, in every detail, could not be imagined. Il was the best entertainment evcrwil nesscd in Ashcville, and evcrvboily agrees upon that point. The zealous ladies who were in charge ofthe affair have every reason to be pro ml of the glorious attainment of their object, and llie people are indebted to them lor two evenings of pleasure that could not have been surpassed. The chiel actors in the Carnival have won for themselves rcat honor and praise, no less lor the sacruiccs they have made in Udialt of sweet charily than for the very brilliant manner in winch thev have acquitted themselves of the onerous burdens they so cheerfully ami willingly issumcd. A wreath of laurel each has lobly w on. The Carnival tasl evening, was, as we predicted, much more delight fid in even particular than on the preceding nilit. The assemblage was much laryt r, and then the music lent additional charms to the jjory ofthe truly magnificent pano rama. 1: very body and his friends were in attendance, and ihc party who failed in having a royal ood lime has yet lo be heard from. The tableaux were charming, and the way in which I he booths wi re patron ized leads one lo think that Trinity church will not Itaiy be without an or- iit siicli as Us importance and require- : ll louts deserve, tcrtaiuiucnt do It was late when the en- i-ii, ami tnosc wlio were there tinned awav with rcbietaiice and a biltcr regret that secues like those just enacted could not last forever.

Nnvy Vokk, August l.r. Lawyers in ibis city of Mrs. Maybrick, under sen tence nl death in Liverpool lor poisoning In-!- husband, have to-day received im portant evidence in favor of their client. The uUonicvs an' KorK: Maeklin. Alfred MaucU.a lawyer of Montreal, sends a Ii 111 r to the linn staling that Mrs. Yapp, answering the description of Mrs. Yapp, who was the chief witness against Mrs. Maybriek, was known to leave Montreal .riorit. i line years ago to escape the pos sibility ol being indicted for jierjury. Al that time a man named Malvin Smith brought an action against his wife for scpaiaiion. Mrs. Yapp was the chief vviuii-s;-. lor Sinilli, and gave vervdaniag ing evidence against his wile.' Il was lu vn, however, that Smith's mistress ami the woman Yapp had. with Smith's aid, plotted a di cp conspiracy to blacken Mrs. Smith's character. The plea failed, however, and Mrs. Yapp lied tiie couulrv immediately tliercalter. Iiudlev M. lloi mau. managing editor of the Portland, Maine, livening Kxprcss, also sends a let ter Mating that Mrs. May I nick i nice lived in rortlaiid, where she was highly re spected, lie asks the advice of the law vers regarding the propriety of getting a petition signed by leading citizens of rortlaiid, and forwarding the same to Secretary of State lllaine, reipiesting him to interest himself in the case. The law-vi-rs w rote a reply in approval of the idea. A will known lawyer who arrived to-day Irom Lngland, and who was present liming Judge Stephen's charge to .be jury, was seen at Hoc iv. Macklin's otlii'e. I le (lot's not wish his name pub lished. While in linglaud hegave the May brick case a careful study. "I never hen nl such ii prcjuiliiTilcharge delivered," said he, "by a Judge in my many years' experience at the liar." Mrs. Maybriek's lawyers could not get in a word edge wise. When they endeavored to curb the liulge in his charge, they got snubbed for their pains. All thepeopiein Knglnnd were opposed lo conviction except the Judge. I do not think the home secretaiy will allow the woman to be executed. Icallcil io see her after her conviction, and she lii'cscntcil a pitiful sight. She exclaimed ; "I did not do il, I did not do it. My lolly I admit. 1 was led astray by the .nan who had an nnn.ilnr.il iiilluenee over inc. That was my only sin. 1 would sooner have lost my life than hurt one liair of my husband's head." Messrs Roc and Maeklin, the lawyers will for ward theeviilcnee they have to Secretary lll.-line at once. Livi:ki I., August lo.
