Charleston Convention.
Just now there is considerable agitation
in favor of changing the place for holding
the National Democratic Convention. In
fact a committee of the National Demo
cratic Committee have visited Baltimore,
for the purpose of inquiring into the
''capacity of the hotels, terms of board,
&c, with the view of having an informal
meeting of the National Convention at
Charleston, and then adjourning to Balti
more, The committee say that Charles
ton will' neither be able to accommodate
nor "feed the many thousands who will
congregate there. The Baltimore hotel
keepers have promised that if this course
ii resolved upon, the regular charges will
be made, and that with the well known
hospitality of the citizens to throw open
their doors to all who cannot be accommo
dated at the hotels, there will not be the
-'slightest difficulty in accommodating, all
who visit the city.
The delgation from Illinois will alone
number one thousand.
Rejection of the Nicaragua Treaty.
Our readers are no doubt aware of the
. state-of Niccraguan affairs for' several
years past, and of the prevailing desire
. for the establishment of some pacific re
lations with that country. A treaty has
finally been concluded which it was
thought would adjust existing differences.
. This treaty has been reiected by the ac-
tion of Republican Senators in Congress.
The New York Times, an independent
paper with strong Republican proclivities
in speaking of this matter, very sensibly
remarks
"The Republican party, as represented
in the Senate, is assuming a very serious
...
responsibility to the country by its course
upon the treaties dependent upon its ac
tion. It seems to have decided that this
present Administration shall not have the
credit of closing any of the quarrels which
have so long threatened to involve us in
still more serious difficulties with foreign
Tv-m-pr nnrl tr nrpvpnt Kiirh n rpsnh it
j . s., - t "
rejects all steps to end them. ;
The Republicans are confident that they
are about to come into power. Natural
ly, therefore, they desire to reserve the
"rettlciuentof all these questions for them
selves. They wish to adjust them upon
their own basis, and to reap all the honor
and advantage of having closed item.
But this policy cannot be safely pushed
toofar. The opportunity of settling these
questions at all may pass away, and the
couutry may hold them to a heavier re
sponsibility than they can afford to bear."
Yes, "the opportunity of settling these
questions at all, may pass away," per
haps has, unless those, upon whom now
rets the responsibility, retrace their steps,
which, from very recent dispatches, we
have reason to believe they will. It is
is jaid they have held a caucus on the
subject, and discussion was warm. The
resust was that Senator Dixon, of Con
'r.ccticut, and several others, joined Sena
tor Wilson in the policy indicted by his
vote on the Nicaraguan Treaty, and, if
practicable, will resuscitate the Treaty and
pass i;.
Tf tho rr.attpr stands ns at nresent.
' England will have a very great advantage
over us, and the Isthmus route to the
Pacific closed against American capital,
energy and skill.

dispatch from Washington:
The Homestead Bill passed under the
. previous question, or gag rule. While
intended to le real, it is, nevertheless, an
auxiliary for the coming Presidential
campaign, but should it pass both houses,
xne i inbiacm win veto it.
-' To veto the Homestead Bill, would on
ly be characteristic cf the President. Be
fore his election he was in favor of the
public lands being preserved for the ben
efit of actual settlers." After his elec
tion he rushed their, into market, and op
pressed in every possible manner the "ac
tual settler." Before his election he was
'in favor cf "Popular Sovereignty;" after
his election he thought it a "soil aelu-
non.
Still "Occupying t!:c same .EedP
We learn that "ultra Southerners" and
"ultra Northerners'are still in the same
bed. They arc both "opposing tlrs Mexican
Treaty ; the former, because it would
lead lathe rapid emigration of free-soil
population to that part of Mexico, , and
the first thing Texas knew she would have
free-soil States established on her front
ier." The latter, because "it is likely to
create more slave States." The only
question with such politicians is "how will
this thing affect slavery," and thus they
lose sight entirely of the substantial inte
rests of the country. Wo Tepeat, thcro
is but one way to settle this "nigger ques
tion," and that is, banish it from the halls
of Congress, and let those directly inte
rested, settle "in their own; way."
Settlers on Indian Reservations.
For the benefit of some of our readers
in Nebraska and Kansas we publish the
following paragraph relative to settlemens
upon Indian Reservations, by the whites.
; ".vhich we find Ma a late Washington
paper:
"The Commissioner of Indian Affairs
has issued a letter, in which he says
almost every Indian reservation in Kansas
has either been settled or trespassed upon
by the whites, in utter disregard of the
law, which is imperative and must be en
forced, lie would exceedingly regret a
collision between citizens and the United
States troops, and hopes that such a
calamity will be avoided ; but, as at pres
ent advised, unless they obey the notice,
the strong arm of the Government will be
employed to enforce it, however formida
ble they m3y b? in numbers."
The Texas Fever.
It is known ihat the Texas fever pre
vailed to some extent in this place and
vicinity last year, carrying off a number
of our citizens, among whom was Hon.
R. Brown. We are permitted to make
the following extracts from a letter writ
ten by Mr. B. to Dr. A. S. Holladay, of
this city, under date "Denton, Texas,
Feb. 23rd, 1SG0":
!Jf .there is anything I hate, it is a
woman with a lap-dog ! I alwaj's want to
drown it and put a baby in its place," says
cruel Fanny Fern, forgetful that too often
the tep-dsg owners feel the same way,
but take the dog because they can't have
the laby. Shouldn't be hard ca the sex,
Fanny. Boi!cn Post.
The Pod might have added.: and, be
side, perhaps' Fanny is "not man enough
to fulfill her desires in regard to "woman
" I have been somewhat disappointed as
to the winter season of Texas, from the
fact that I expected to find a fine, pleasant
open winter, so much so ihat stock of all
kinds would subsist all winter. In fact
tbis was the universal report from all
those with whom I talked on the subject ;
but I am trying it for myself and find it
very much to the reverse. All say this
is the hardest wTinter that has been since
the country has been settled ; stock is
dying by thousands for want of feed, ten
times more than I ever knew in the North
at -any one season. Stock raisers haTe
not, heretofore, prepared any feed for
whiter. This is a damper on the stock
business. Another great drawback, this
season, is the . almost total loss of the
wheat crop in all the grain growing por
tion of the country, owing to the winter
setting in so early and hard before the
wheat had got a siart, which has never
happened- in Texas before ; and. this
country having no navigable streams or
railroads running to and from it, to equal
ize the prices of produce and trade gene
rally, makes it opperate extremely hard
on the inhabitants. So you see that 1
cannot advise any of my friends to leave
Nebraska or Northern Missouri to come
to Texas.
My trip South will be somewhat expen
sive to me, thuugh I think it will be the
means cf securing good health in my
family, which will be the only compensa
tion. . . . ...
I must say that I have been somewhat
disappointed as to the Northwi portion
of the State-of Texas; and the more
favored portions of the State are subject
more or less to yellow fever. The por
tion that I had selected to locate in has
been almost vacated the last season on ac
count of yellow fever, it being the South
ern portion of the State. '
The farmers are planting corn; the
oat and wheat fields are green."
, We will on!y add, that those who arc
looking for a better country than Southern
Nebraska will be very apt to find it
"over the left."
Sara.
Houston and the Texas
Frontier.
Gen. Sara. Houston, Governor of Texas,
it seems is determined that his dominion
shall not be invaded. He has once or
twice before informed the General Gov
ernment of the state of affairs, suggest
ing government aid ; not receiving prompt
attention, he again communicates with the
Secretary of War. as will be seen by the
following corresponcence. If Houston
undertakes to' settle border difficulties
there will be m boy's play about the
mailer :

"Executive Department,
Austin, Feb, 13, 'CO.
To lion. John B: Floyd, Sicntaryof War,
Washington, D. C:
The Commissioners sent by me to the
Rio Grande have reported.
The territory of Texas has been in
vaded. ' The banditti recruit their forces
and gain supplies iii the; face of the au
thorities of Matamoras, and they are un
able to restrain them
The steamer ' Ranchero was fired into
from the Mexican side of the river' on
the 3rd instant. The Texans thereupon
crossed the river with sixty men, and after
an engagement with 200 banditti, re
pulsed them with a loss of twenty-five or
thirty of the enemy.
The immediate interposition of the
Federal arm is besought.' I have used
all necessary caution and prudence, and
may now act upon the facts before me.
Unless prompt measures are adopted by
the Federal Government, circumstances
will impel a course on the part of Texas
which she 'desires to avoid.
Texas cannot be invaded with impuni
ty. 1 thrown upon her "resources, she
may not only resists but adept means to
prevent a recurrence of the outrage.
A reply is respectfully asked, stating
th.j determination of the Department I
would request that this dispatch be sub
mitted to His Excellency President Bu
chanan. The report of the Commission
ers will be sent by mail.

Death of Gov. Bisscll.
Wm. - H. Bissell, Governor of the
S ate of Illinois, died at Springfield on
the 18ih inst., a telegraph dispatch of the
21st says : .
"The ! funeraFceremonies of Hon. W.
H.. Bissell, the late . Governor of Illinois
took place to-day. The remains lay in
state at the Executive mansion, and were
visited by crowds of citizens and strangers.
The attendance from the adjoining towns
and from Chicago was very large. The
military display was the finest ever made
in the State. The procession moved from
the Executive mansion at 1, a. m., the
military being an escort under Adjutant
General Mather. Minute guns were
fired by the Chicago Light Artilery during
the march of the procession, which passed
through the principal streets, and was
made of Military,: Masons, citizens and
the Fire Department. The remains were
interred with the services of the Roman
Catholic Church. The day was delight
ful, and the exercises throughout of a
most imposing character.

"Conic Rest In this Bosom."
One of the fullest bosoms of .ancient or
modern times, says the Boston Herald, was
exhibited at the first station last evening,
when a woman, who had been picked up
drunk on the side-walk, was brought in.
There was an unusual fullness in the
region of her bosom, which induced a
suspicion that it was not nature's handi
work, and voluntarily she commenced re
vealing the, mysteries of that portion of
her person, not, however, in such a man
ner as-to shock the sensitive nature of
the 'officers. She removed from her
dress a bottle of champaigne, two plates,
half a dozen oranges, ten doughnuts, four
pieces of cake, a pound of tea, a coffee
pot, gridiron, and, no doubt, would have
brought to light a cooking stove, if the
officers had not tired of receiving the
articles drawn from their seclusion, and
begged of her to desist. That woman
would be a treasure to a man about to
start to Pike's Peak or Cherry Creek, as
she could carry such a quantity of refresh
ments in her bosom, and always have
them handy."-

From Jlexlco Engagement Be
tween American and Mexican
Vessels.
New Orleans, March 20.
Miramon commencsd the siege of Vera
Cruz on the 5th and 6th. Two steamers
appeared before the city and refused to
show their colors. ' Commodoro Jarvis
therefore ordered the Saratoga, with de
tachments from the Savannah and Preble
on the steamers Indianola and Wave, to
proceed to the anchorage and ascertain
the character of the vessels. As the
Saratoga towed the Indianola approached,
the steamers tried to escape but they were
too late. Capt. Turner sent a boat with
a flag to demand the nationality of the
steamers. The boat was fired upon twice
whereupon the Saratoga fired a broadside
into the s.eainer Miramon and the action
became general. Both steamers now
hoisted the Spanish flag, and after a
spirited engagement, the commander of
the vessel, Gen. Warrin, surrendered,
and with most of hi men were taken
prisoners. The American loss was 3
wounded; 1 mortally. Mexican loss j
about 15 killed and between 20 and 30
wounded.
