I WHIG RJS-OKG ANIZ ATION.
Attempts are making in several quarters fo re
organize the Whig party..;. In Rhode IIand there
Is a movement, the be is of which may be gathered
from some remarks la the Providence Journal.
Speaking of the Whigs, that paper J" : - ; i I
They disapprove of the Nebraska bill, and
kohl the doctrines of thertesident, as enunciated
la his annual messsge and in his special one op
" on Kansas, in niter abhorrancc.'V
Pretty sharp language.' These people expect
to extend the Whig organization throughout (he

- PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES.
We bcliore the American Convention at Phila
delphia will nominate a candidate for Preaident.
80, also, will the Whig Party, if they can gather np
such recuperative energies as will enable them to
demonstrate. The National Democratic Party will
also nominate, and if Piercb declines, as be prob
ably will, the nomination will likely fall on Bu
CHiJux, -We are of the opinion that he will be
the next President, and that all opposition to him
win be making : a fuss for nothing. ' He will come
ont on the Pixbcb platform, which no ether par
ty will adopt, and without which no party can ear
ry the Presidential election. ! Of course, no one
can know-bow things will tarn np la this world,
tha fashion of which Is constantly "passing

The American National Council mat la Phila
dehpblaoa 15th lost. It is based on Congressional
Representation, which embrace about 800 mem
ber. One baae'red and fifty were present at the
opening.' y ; ; ; ..,-
Tie Council was thrown Into a snarl by having
twjf sets of Representativea from Pennsylvania,
oae contending for the 12th section and the other
repudiating it. The State Council repudiating
the 12th section is the regular and legitimate one ;
(ha other was formed by about a. dozen seceders
firom U last summer, recently from Philadelphia.
What nay bo expected from Northern Know
Nothings or Native Americans, mty be inferred
from the following from a Correspondent , to the
ev sort.. i7ww; -. . -;.
"It seems there are two Stale Councils, one re
pudiating the twelfth section in the National plat
form, the other embracing ft, and making It their
chief cornerstone. , Both .have sent full acta of
delegates, and the selection between them by the
' Council presents sn ugly question. Tho State
Coancil repudiating the twelfth section is the regu
lar and legitimate one. The ether was formed by
about a dozen seceders from it last Summer,
mostly from Philadelphia. If the delegates of
the former are accepted, beside the damage done
to the Union and the Constitution, the famous
twelfth section is at once abandoned as a test.
If they are excluded, and the delegates of the
ProSIavery bolters admitted, the whole afftir is
at once blown bp, for it will be the substantial
exclusion of alllbe Northern" delegates. They
all represent State Councils that have repudiated
and trampled npon the same twelfth section.
The introduction of this bone of contention ro
fired op the Council that an almos' immediate ad
Jonrnmeat, at o'clock, was carried. At the lat
ter hour4be Council met and immediately ad
journed till 10 o'clock to-morrow at Sansom Hall.
There is a disposition to await the arrival of men
now absent but on the way ; ' "
And now we behold Southern Citizens going in
to Convention to debate on the tubyxt of Stmtherm
Rights, wA to unequivocally assert them, as they
should do. With whom dothey debate! The sworn
eaemies iSoatbern Bights, who will not admit
them in any shape or under any rule or.compro
mi whatever. . ; " . --'
The American National Convention, met yester
day to nominate candidates for President and
Ties-President of the United States. -
farther accounts place matters In a more favor
able aspect tor tho Southern Delegation. '-
The members of the National Council from the
Suulhero States, held a caucus at Seventh and
Samsoa streets. Quito a large number of gen
tle men were present, and took part in tho pro
ceedings, which were of the most animated and
resolute character? ;? " ; '
The Hob. Thomas Hart Clay, (the eldest son
f Henry Clay,) presided on the occasion, and
Col. Albert Pike acted as Secretary.
The object of tbe caucus being to decide upon
the movements of the Southern members in-the
National Council, during its session, quite a gen-
era! expression of feeling took place among those
present. , " -
After a considerable discussion, a resolution to
ataad by the Twelfth Section of the National Plat
form, adopted la June last, at an bazaras, was
agreed to with great unanimity. 1; ,
Walla a number of those present have expres
sed (heir hostility to the introduction of. thst sec
tion Into the platform, it baa been argued oa all
bands, so far as tbe South is concerned, not to re
linquish it, be the consequences what they may.
From tho tone and character t tho speeches,
conversation and parposes of the Soutflern deiega
Uon, It requires no prophet or a ' son of a prophet
to foresee a most Intenaa and ezcttin debate an
ew the proposition to abrogate the obnoxious sec
tion when It shall hare been presented.
A dispatch from Philadelphia, says: -Tbe
Northern delegates la caucus decided that
the Twelfth Section most come out If they remain

The Lnten fast which the ch arch Impose is
now ringing its bell-calls through the frozen air
of day and evening, and bringing unwonted de
votees to their spiritual duties." In all denomi
nations an unusual degree of interest is manifes
ted. Tho carnival season la past, "save that cow
and then an occasional evening lights up the ban
queting halls whose lights have almost fled. St.
Valentine's festival has fallen upon sombre times.
His worshippers have had their heartrbeats chill
ed by tho blasts of a Boreas who has worn oat
his welcome. The couplets of love and painted
gaads of lilies are sadly ont of accord with the
ice and snow, . The birds and the capias cannot
clasp the icicles with the spring embrace of love.
The Dispatch Post and the grates are equally de
serted, and most postpone their burdens of lore
until tho warm 8oulh breathes an unclasping of

fixed fact that there is a North t Many -of our
hotels are suffering a realizing sense of it. Se
veral have already stopped their accommodations.
The stream of travel has followed the general
law of fluids, and the stopping of its golden flow

passing architectural splendor. - But we shall
cease to mourn circumscribed idea, in the en
larged area of its successor, the Great Central
Park, which encloses 776 acres of hill and Tale
and woodland. For this great blessing, the crowd
ed- dwellers of the city most justly owe their
thanks to their brethren of tho rural districts.
Tho conflicting interests of urban purses would
never have unloosed the legal nets which have
encompassed this Park, if the country bad not

for a puff indirect of oar fast friend Jack Frost,

After an exact measurement, it is noted as a fact
in steam statistics, that tbe St. Nicholas hotel and

tablishments bave " pretermitted " their target
holidays, and have given Terpsichorean parties to
their "employees Instead. Nearly all our great
city workshops have thus ministered amusement
to their toiling thousands. The great City-sensation
of the past week was an occasion of this
kind. ' Messrs. Singer So Co. gathered some four
thousand of citizens together at the Assembly
rooms to a ball and supper. - Although intended
particularly for those who are engaged in the ma
nufacture and operation of their sewing machines,
it was rather a great natural industrial fete, bring
ing together men of labor and mechanical science
from all parts of the Union, and creditable to the
tasto and liberality of the, Messrs. Singer, who
made it a frre entertainment.
The 22d of February will be celebrated with
great enthusiasm by the Order of United Ameri
cans and other public bodies of this city. It is
fit that it should be a day of eternal commemo
ration.
, A SAD INCIDENT.
A friend writes ns, that "on Friday, 1st inst.,
John Yanbook, a respectable and. hard working
citizen of Franklin, Macon County, came to his
death in a manner that is suggestive of the un
certainty of all earthly things. He was out at
work in the morning. On coming to dinner, his
little son was thought to be worse of scarlet fever,
and Mr. Yanhook came to tbe village for the Doc
tor. - He was as lively and social as we had ' ever
seen him. But alas I in one short hoar, the news
was brought back, that in attempting to lift a log
on the wagon for firewood, be slipped up, his
forehead fell on a little stamp and too log 00 his
head, and be was horribly mangled. Surgical
aid was called in, and kindness did all that could
be done, bat it was of no avail. Ha was hauled
to the house, and a little after 8 o'clock, P. M.,
he breathed bis last. How short is life and how
uncertain! " '
; Mr. Yanhook came from Orange county to this,
several years ago, and though not wealthy, was
living well. He leaves a wife and five small chil
dren to mourn his loss." AskmlU Spectator.
THE ANTICIPATED FLOOD ON THE OHIO.
The Cincinnati Gazette, speaking of the flood
which is expected to result should a sudden thaw
occur In that section of country, says: ' a !
"The country drained by the Ohio above this
point contains 100,000 square miles. This is cov
ered on an average, at present with snow and ice
to the depth of twelve or fifteen inches, equiva
lent to at least six inches of water. This gather
ed into one body would fill a lake of 1,000 square
miles fifty feet deep. Supposing the river at this
point to be one-third of a mile wide, and to flow
six miles an hour, at a rise of fifty feet above tbe
present point, it would carry off two square miles
of the above lake each hour, or say fifty square
miles a day, requiring twenty days to drain off
the water, even supposing no more" rain should
fall the earth froze full of water, so that not
much can be absorbed.. Under the most favora
ble circumstances we must have a high and con
tinued flood. . ' - , . :
A CHINESE BOT AT NORFOLK.
The U. 8. steamer Powhatan, which arrived at
Norfolk on Thursday week, from China, baa 00
board a Chinese boy about seven years of age,
who was captured In August last, in the fight be
tween tbe Powhatan's boats and those of the Bri
tish squadron with tin piratical juuka. He was
taken from oa board'a junk carrying 20 guns, a
few minutes before she blew up and killed three
men of the Powhatan and wounded several othersJ
two of whom died soon after. Tho loss of the pi
rates In the battle waa about 700. The junk was
loaded with alargi amount of treasure, beside
sUke, opivaa, Ac, which waa an leas. -
Ffcb."3; Ia lLe SeniXe at c. - u uvu.i.,.! sub
ject of tto Central American Question wai re
sumed and debated by Messrs. Butler and other
Senators. By Mr. Crittenden it was believed that'
one part of the Treaty of 1850, upon which - there
was a contrariety of construction, would never
lead to any hostility between the United States
and Great Britain. This was the alleged right to
occupy Ruatan as one of the dependencies of tbe
Belize. It would be time enough for our Govern
ment to adopt decided measures when England
gave evidence of any resolve to assume practical
dominion over that island. ' He thought that there
was no great danger of England's ever attempting
to change her present shadow of a protectorate of
Mosquito into a substance at tbe cost of a war
with this country. He believed that , tho Minis
ters of that power were too wise, too discreet, Bud
had too much at heart the interests of commerce,
of the world, and of humanity. He added, that
from his own investigations he did not find that
England ever claimed the island of Ruatan until
after the signature of the Treaty, hen Sir Hen
ry Balwer did send a note to Mr. Clayton, which
waa withdrawn after some correspondence. Mr.
Mason asserted that no right to Ruatan has ever
been put forward by England except as one of
the small Islands forming the dependencies of the
Belize j which claim was nullified by the Treaty
between England and Spain,' under which the
former n;ittori enjoyed for certain limited purpos
es a possession of tbe Belize' and its adjacent
small islands.' ; On motion of Mr. Bell, tbe discus
sion of the qnstion was adjourned to Tuesday
next. ; Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, asked to have
read a paper which he held. This was objected
to, and by a vote of the Senate permission was
refused, after some explanations by several Senators.-
It was suggested that a quorum was not
present, and some interchange of opinion: occur
red between Messrs. Fish, Butler, Foot, and oth
ers. Mr. Jones, however, declined to press bis
request, and deferred to another opportunity the
reading of the paper and any remarks be might
desire to submit upon the subject. The resolu
tion addressed to the Secretary of the Navy,- de
siring him to send to the Senate copies of any re
cord kept or papers delivered to him by tbe Na
val Board, was then passed, and tbe Senate ad
journed. ' ; ' .. ..v'" r-'-" --j.,- "
In the Honse of Representatives, among the
bills introduced was one by Mr. Millson to repeal
the act to promote the efficiency of the Navy; one
by Mr. Faulkner extending the provisions of. the
act of 1848 to the widows and orphans of persons
dying in the military service; and one by Mr.
Watkins to amend the act of Sd of March, 1856,
granting additional bounty land to persons in tbe
military service. .The resolution from the Com
mittee on Elections, asking authority to send for
persons and papers in reference to the Kansas
contested election, was adopted, reconsidered, and
anally recommitted to tbe committee with instruc
tions. An hour was spent upon the resolution
for tbe election of a chaplain to the House, and
the snbjeet waa indefinitely postponed. The
House has thns determined not to have a regular
chaplain for the present Congress. ; It is proper
to say, however, that this disposition of tho reso
lution seems to have been made with a view to a
continuance of tbe system of alternate service by
tbe clergymen of the city.

A letter from King and Queen county, Ya., da
ted February 9tb, after referring to the severity
of tbe weather, says: .! -
It has been difficult with many to procure the
necessaries of life many bave lost valuable cat
tie and other live stock; and still more melancho
ly, several of our citizens, and a namber of slaves
i.n this section, have been frozen to death and
found dead in the fields. ;
Mr. Archer and Mr. Carlton, both of King and
Queen, were found near their own houses frozen,
one of tbem leaning against the drawbars, which
he had evidently attempted in vain to get over.
The other had dismounted from his horse and
opened his gate, when his herse got away from
him, and he wandered a short distance in the
snow, laid down and died. . V . , . v
A stout negro man was seen standing erect in a

" A NOBLE ACT.
Tho rescue of a lady from a room adjoining
that portion of the St. Lawraence Hotel damaged
by the recent fire, was an act of heroism that
should not go unnoticed. She was unable to help
herself, being afflicted with rheumatism, and her
situation being known,- several attempts were
made to go to her assistance; but all were' forced
to return, the smoke being so dense as to threat
en suffocation. Joseph Black well at hut wrapped
a comforter around bis mouth. and creeping a
long on his hands and knees; succeeded in reach
ing her room, and b rough the lady out of danger.

"They afford the most empbslic contradiction

. THE REASON WHY
, Sevastopol is probsbly called ' The Holly City
from having been so thoroughly canonized recent-
ly. .; .
IloUetoay's PilU an unfailing Remedy for Bil
ious Complaints. Thomas nod son, or Fourth
street, Philadelphia, bad the misfortane to be af
flicted with tbe severest of bilious disorders, nau
sea and afoul stomach, which prevented bim
relishing any kind of food, and frequently threw
bim on a bed of s'ekness for several weeks. He
tried many remedies recommended bim by friends.
but they only tended to increase his malady; his
brother, last fall, recommended bim to use Hoi
loway's Pills, which be did, the result, to use bis
own words, "was truly extraordinary, for after
about six weeks usage of th s Inestimable medi
cine, I was completely cured; and will never again
be without It I guess.

liver complaint, shooid try PERRY DAVIS PAIN
K1LLEK. It seldom fails to effect a cure In a
very short time. 8oId by Drnrgists generally
throughout the United States and Canadas.
fTAGUE AND FEVER of three years stand
in CURED. Mr. John Longuen, now living at
Beaver Dam, Hanover County, Va. near Rich
mond, had Ague and Fever for three years, most
of the time be had chills twice a nay, and rarely
less than once: he was parched with fevers as soon
as the chiil left him; aud after trying physicians,
quinine most of the Tonics advertised, and every
thing recommended to him, was about to give up
in despair, when Carter's Spanish Mixture was
spoken or ho got two bottles, bnt before be had
used more than a single one, he was perfectly
cured, and has not had a chill or fever since.
Mr. Longuen is only one out of thousands who
have been benefitted by this great tonic, altera
tive and blood puriner.

From the Boston Saturday Evening Gazette.
A Pebpcmeo Bbbsth. What lady or gentleman
would remain under the curse of a disagreeable
breath when by using tbe " Balm of a TUtmtand
Fioxters "hi dentifrice would not only render it
sweet but leave the teeth white as alabaster t
Many persons do not know their breath is bad,
and tho subject is so delicate their friends will
never mention it. Pour a single drop of the
" Balm " on your tooth-brush and wash the teeth
night and morning. A fifty cent bottle will last a
year.
. A BeiuTiruL Complexion may easily be acqui
red by using the "Balm of a, Thousand Ftoven."
It will remove ft, pimples, and freckles from the
skin, ieaving it of a soft and roseate hue. Wet a
towel, pour on two or three drops, and wash tbe
face night and morning.
Shi vino Made East. Wet your shaving-brush
in either warm or cold water, pour on two or three
drops of " Balm of a Thousand Flowers," rub tbe
beard well and it will make a beautiful soft lath
er much facilitating the operation of shaving.

MARRIED.
In Richmond, Va., on the 20th InsL, by the
Rev. L. P LeDonx, Mr. Louie Ebsmbebt, of Wil
mington, N.C., to Miss 8i i.i.i c F. Ssinneb, daugh
ter of Capt. 8amuel Skinner, of Richmond, , ,
DIED.
From the Salisbnry) Car. Watchman of Feb. 19.
On Wednesday the 13tb Instant, Mrs. 8ababt E.
Bakes, aged 84 years, daughter of Ilinton James,
late of Wilmington, N. C, and wife of Rev. Arch
ibald Baker, pastor of fhe Presbyterian Church
of this place.
A victim of consumption, she hath passed away
but not in gloom. Calm and resigned to the last
moment she fell asleep in Jesus, trusting in tbe
glorious hope of an eternal abode in the mansions
of rest which the Saviour has prepared for bis
people. .
. -'Oh I many are the mansions there.
But not in one hath grief a share 1 ". "
No haunting ahade from things gone-by,
. May there o'ersweep the unchanging aky,
' And thou art there whose long-loved mien
In earthly home no more is seen ;
,V , : Whoso place, where tboa smiling sate,
Is left unto us desolate.
We miss thee when the board is spread ; ,
We miss then when the prayer Is said ;
Upon oar dreams thy dying eyes
In still and mournful fondness risw.
; , But thou art where these longings vain
i :( Trouble no more tbo heart and brain ;
: The sadness of this aching love
i: -' Dims not oar Father's house above." J
- Early In youth she turned away from the blan
dishments of the world and consecrated herself
to the service of her God and Redeemer; H ppy
in ber domestic relations, tbe ornament of the so
cial circle, she will long be remembered and
deeply mourned by ber numerious friends.
In all tbo relations of life, as wife, daughter,
sister, mother and friend, she manifested tbe
deepest devotion. ",;-
, Her wiobtrnsive piety; gmtleness and suavity
of manners and ber uniformly cheerful deport
ment fitted ber to soothe, sustain and cheer ber
husband In tbe arduous duties of a pastor's life.
Even tbe long lingering months of wasting dis
ease did not destroy tbe charm, which her bright
and sympathising manner diffused over tbo at
mosphere of home. v ' ; , ;
. All tbe fond wishes of a mother's heart were
merged in one. That ber children might become
tho children of God and live to advance tho in
terests of tbo Redeemer's kingdom on earth.
Nothing bat tbo consolations of ear blessed re
ligion can sustain under such sorrow. 1 May tho
compassionate One who wept at tbo grave of La
zarus, soothe the grief of the Uasband, tbe Moth
er and the motherless children la the paths of
piety aad suefulaeaav Cost '
