The Convention of three Southern Govi ernore at Ilaleigh, N. lately, to confer on the political prospect of the country, is the theme of general speculation. What was the object of ibe meeting. Who gave them authority to act ? And what did they decide on doing ! These questions are .on every tongue. Periiarnfr.can give you some inform- tion on this subject. In spile of denials that may 1 made of. its truth, the result II .1 Li ..I : mA or nnf . Will enow wneiuer ii is "y r That the qiielion of Secessions discus sed, a matter of course.; It was decided by these (governors that in the event of Fremont's e'ection they would mak an ef fort to prebipitate their several States into steps leiKl'.bg to disolution, But the pro jectof maichingon Washington, which has been b loudly talked about, was not considered feasible. c . - ' I kave reason i to. believe from ortain lealings, that Mr,' Fillmore connection, with this canvass was also a-topicof: con sideration- 1 It is .aicij and is generally be lieved here;, that the i Fillmore ticset in Pennsylvania, Indiania, Illnois, Cbnnecti pressl for iMr. Buchannan's benefit,'. It is furthermore said and believed that this is in pursuance ot a regular bargain- witn eertain leaders of the Democratic pai ty in the North find at Washington and that -as a consideration for this aid, AIr.l?Ulrnore is to be permitted to carry one or two Southern States and New York if he can. The Fillrhore men in vour section are satisfied with this arrangement, becaure it promises to carry the election -into ibe House of Representatives, where tliej say, Mr. Fillmore will bold the balance of pow er. : But mark my word ! Mr. Fillmore's name will not be permitted by the democ racy to go into the Houss at all under any crcumttances. Governor Wise. Governot Adams and the ultra Southern men gen erally will either rule or ruin, they dont in tobe over ruled by any third party, And the plan of operation has been agreed up on. . ' ; You know that if no president is chosen bj the people the names of the threehighest candidates go .to the Iloute of Representa tives. Fremont's will be one, Buchanan's another ancl it is taken for granted by his friends if this game succeeds that Fill mores will be the third. Th ey are reckoning TT i auimuiiu carries twelve or thirteen of the Southern States and Fillmore two,threeor even four States altogether. Th general result will be known wiithin ten days after the election iC3T It is uuderstood that in this event. four or five j3uchanan States will cast their electoral votes for Douglas,orWise or some other Democrat sp as to. give him a hio-her vote than Fillmore and thus exclude the latter froraj the canvass in the house of Representatives altogether, Ilavin the game thus in tbeir own hands it is believed that theycanfotce all theSouth ern States toJjointhe Democrats in elec ting a Democratic President; f .

These took possession of the ordinance department guard hOuse hospital and principle church all on the main plaza, and the ladies took refuge in the house of the American Min ister and some of the foreignlConsu'ates.

A terrible ac cideut, from burning 'fluid, occurred on Saturday evening, at the house of Andeew; Moore, in Thitadelphia. The Sun has the following particulars of the distressing af-' fair.:; a Mrs. Moore, ;as is too often done, was .in the actoffilling a metal lamp while it was burningrwith fluid, when one ot her children, a small girl wlio was at her feet, pulled her dress. This, for a moment, di vested her attention from the lamp, and the flaine coming in contact with the fluid, a whole quart (eing in the vessel, it was ignited. Ja the fright of Mrs. Moore, she tlirew it trora her and ovei the children, and the carpet; being set on fire, the dres; $es of the cliilden were in a blaze the next moment. Thej light and the cries of the family brought assistance, but three of the childretfrwere so. dreadfully' burned that two of 4bem died in the course of the nisht. and one early yesterday mominsr. One cf the-e, a girl jaged thirteen years, was not of the family : "Her name was Ellen J. Lampson, from Washington, D. 0 arid was at llie house ou a visit, soon aa her dress caught she ran into the street and (ell into the gutter in front of , Ihe house.! Ihe oi hers were named JB.mma II.

Drs. Kamerely and Laws, the bitter of die U nited States Navy, wre early at the scene of disaster, but four nf the children were burnt bevond the power of human skill to save, the fourth jbeing considered in a d. ing state last evening. A more terrible sijlit was never witnessed than the four children, so shockingly burnt as they were about the body; and head. The eldest girl, Ellen.. Jane Lampson, retained her senses to the, last, and prayed audibly just before she ceased to breathe. . The casu alty caused the most intense excitement in the neighborhood in which it occurred t and the house was Aronged with the cark ous all of yesterday.

On the fatal nigl.t, however, he wasj stunned by a 'blow', and a large pot of bpiling water which had been prepared for jthe purpose was poured tlirough a funnel down his throat- until life became extinct. He was then conveyed to his chamber, and tha neighbors apprised of the death,aff we have stated above. ! We undexstanU that two of his negrees have been arrested and are now in jail j Negro Insurrection in Arkansas-. . 1 j, "We learft ftom" the ' Memphis papers that there" is great excitement in Uniou county, Arkansas, on account of the. dis covery of. a plot among the negroes to rise in rbellion on the 15th of this month. Fortunately the plot was discovered in time to prevent one of the most bloody massa, cres in the whole annals of insurrections. The plot was very exteusive, jand negroes who were taken up. and made to confess, implicated others twenty miles off. Some of ihe negroes say the rising was to take place the day of the iPresidential eiection. The rnen being from home on that day, the plot was to murder the wom en and children first, aud then, attack the unamed men atthe poles.-; Several whit e men have been implicated, and notified to jea ve the country iii a given! time or be bung The letter slates that on the CoU orado the excitement is inienge, and that several negroes have been hung.
