It was too hot to think, and so I permitted the mind to drift the impulses of fancy and passion. sailed along the diluvial lands of -4. 1 which passed tttiring the closing hours t)f the last session of Congress.

which was pushed through in great haste, a most remarkable oversight occuiTed. Thd bill makes no provision whatever for sailors; but applies exclusively to soldiers. This was certainly unintentional on the part of Congress. All the discussion which was had upon the subject contemplated tho inclusion of the navy tho benefits of the measure, and omission is attributable only to hurry of tho last hours of the session. This act of-, justice to our gallant sailors will certainly follow, though great inconvenience will be worked the delay.

The matter will receive prompt attention at tho next session and will undoubtedly be set right. Conservative. Tho Glasgow Mo, Times has the following: About a year ago, a woman got off Doat wmcii landed at our wharf, leading by tho hand a little girl three yeai-s old, and asked a negro woman standing ncarto care of the child for a few minutes.

PiiiLADELrniA, Aug. 14. At 12-30 p.m. Mi. Kandall opened tho Convention by saying Gentlemen I have to announce that the delegates from South Carov Una and Massachusetts wilt now come arm-in-anm to this Convention.

This announcement was greeted with great applaudsc, the entire audience rising to their feet, and the band playing "The Flag of our Union. 'V The organization of the Convention was then effected by the election John A. -Dix as temporary chairman. Gen. Dix said he received the honor conferred upon him with great pride, and he especially recognized tho importance of tho Convnetion.

Xo body of men havo met on this continent to consider events so momentous to the country since 1776. Wc are here to vindicate and restore the. Constitution which was then framed, to render firm and indissoluble the Government which our fathers formed and put in operation to defend and maintain it. "We are not now living under such Government. Eleven States have been unrepresented in Congress.

This portion of the road was received and accepted about a month ago by the United States Commissioners. We understand that another twenty miles will be completed iu two or three weeks, and ready for acceptance. The Company has ample means "push "the work, and will rapidly complete it.

They confidently expect to have sixty miles finish ed and in running order betore the first snow falls. A large force is at work grading the road for about sixty miles out. A great deal of. blowing is frequently-done by; telegraph from Washington, of the land entries at various land offices throughout the nest, not one oi them give any indication of such a settlement as is going on in Western Kansas. At tho Junction City Land Office, during the month of July, 10,032 acres were entei'ed under the Homestead Act 2075 under the pre-emption law 5520 acres by agricultural scrip and about 1,000 acres with cash and different varieties of land scrip making a total 21,627 acres.

We think the figure will bear us out in saying that there has not been less than 20,000 acres a entered within the past months. The names recorded at the Land Office establishes, without doubt, the number of settlers locating west of the Republican to be about two hundred a month Estimating one-half of these to be men of families, the figures indicate a remarkable increase of population. Junction Union. The Topeka Leader says that the Wabaunsee county, brought in on Thursday last, a fleece of wool clipped from a three year old Vermont buck, imported by John Bird, former superintendent of the Government farm at Fort Leavenworth. The buck w'as bought by the Messrs.

The clip of 625 1 sheep weighed 2,600 pounds, tho wool selling at an advance on the regular price. i When Gen.
