Suicide. --Miss Jones, of Monroe county, Indiana, was ruined a short time since by a man named Braham, who promised to marry her. She procured his arrest and made affidavit of the fact, but Braham introduced a witness who deposed that Miss Jones had told him that she had not been seduced under promise of marriage. The poor Braham introduced a witness who deposed that Miss Jones had told him that she had not been seduced under promise of marriage. The poor girl in her despair then said she would not disgrace her family, and calling for a glass of water suddenly emptied into it a deadly poison, and refusing all aid, died in a few minutes. The people talk strongly of lynching Braham. sed that Miss Jones had told him that she had not been seduced under promise of marriage.

ant-at-Arms to "clear the galleries." Mr. Goode appealed to the President to countermand the order, but he declined. In compliance with the hint, the populace began to move towards the doors, when Mr. Franklin Thomas, a citizen of Richmond, exclaimed in a loud voice-- Mr. President! I have one single appeal to make. A motion was made that he be taken into custody, to which Mr. Thomas expressed his willingness, but the motion was withdrawn. After quiet had been restored, Mr. Brent, of Alexandria, moved that the resolutions under consideration be laid on the table until morning, as Mr. Goode did not desire to proceed with his remarks this afternoon. The motion was agreed to. Mr. Montague called the attention of the President to the fact, that an individual had been taken into custody in compliance with an order from the Chair, and asked that the matter be disposed of. The President said he gave no such order, and went on to explain what had occurred.

The seizure of ships at Savannah. The following is the letter written by Gov. Brown in ordering the seizure of the New York ships, at Savannah, on the 21st: Executive Department Milledgeville Feb. 21st, 1861. Sir On the fifth day of this month I directed you to call out sufficient military force, and seize all ships then in the harbor of Savannah belonging to citizens of the State of New York. The reasons for the seizure were briefly stated in the order. Citizens of this State had been robbed of their property by the police of New York, acting under the authority of that State. I had demanded the restoration of the property to its owners. The Governor of that State had given an evasive reply, excepting to the form of the demand sent by telegraph; which clearly evinced his disposition not to comply by ordering the restoration of the property. If the protection of this State were not in such case afforded to its citizens, it not only invited further aggressions upon

troduction of Southern spun cotton yarns into the markets of France, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany and Russia. The Convention was largely attended by cotton planters and others. A report was adopted, in favor of making up a complete set of samples of Southern spun yarns to be forwarded to Europe, and of taking steps to obtain accurate information from abroad as to prices, styles, numbers and kinds of cotton yarns saleable in foreign markets. The Convention was addressed by Messrs. Fulton, Brumby, Bayton and other gentlemen. Mr. Bayton made a statement of the financial, commercial and industrial issues, bound up in the political future of the South. He argued that separate political existence, unaccompanied by financial and commercial independence, was but the shadow without the substance of liberty. A resolution was adopted in favor of a Cotton Spinners' and Planters' Convention, at Atlanta, on the 19th ult., --and inviting all the Cotton States, in favor of Direct Trade, to send
Black Republican cohorts show no signs of compromise. It is now believed that Weed has the inside track for the spoils, a fact which harrows the sensibilities of the patriotic Horace to the core. He professes to have no taste nor scent for the official larder, nevertheless, because Mr. Seward, in the innocence of his unsophisticated nature, did not offer him that which he supposed he would not have, he defeated the Presidential aspirations of Seward at Chicago and secured the nomination of the "Honest Old Ape" of Illinois. Now comes Seward's revenge. He is made Premier, and his trusty Lieutenant, Thurlow Weed, outgeneraling Greeley at every move, is believed to control the dispensation of the official patronage. To a man of Horace's high sense of honor, this ingratitude of Lincoln must be as crushing as the dagger with which "the well beloved Brutus"" stabbed the Roman tyrant. We expect to hear soon that "Ingratitude, more keen than traitor's steel," has made an end of Greeley.
Plots of Assassination. The New York Times has discovered a wonderful plot for throwing Lincoln's car from the truck on the Harrisburg Railroad.--It asserts that "the list of the names of the conspirators presented a most astonishing array of persons high in Southern confidence, and some whose fame is not in this country alone. Statesmen laid the plan, bankers endorsed it, and adventurers were to carry it into effect. " Of course there is not a word of truth in this. It is not as probable as the story of the attempt to poison Mr. Buchanan at the National Hotel in Washington, on the eve of his inauguration. It will be remembered that the President elect was made very sick by something which he ate or drank at that hotel, and that hundreds of other guests, of both sexes, suffered from the same cause, many of them dying and exhibiting all the internal evidences of poison. The matter was never satisfactorily accounted for. About this time, we must expect sensation stories.
