You have a sure, safe and immediate remedy for a host of difficulties and dangers. Once for all Dalley's Magical Pain Extractor is the Nihil Ulterior of all the remedies ever offered to the public. For Sale in New Orleans, wholesale and re During the absence of the jury in Copee's case, in order that no time should be wasted, John Brown was brought in from jail to sentenced. He walked in with considerable difficulty, and every movement appeared to attended with pain, although his features gave no expression of it. It was late, and the'gas-lights gave an almost deathly pallor to his face.

He seated himself near "his counsel, and, after once resting his head upon his right hand, remained entirely motionless, and for a time apparently unconscious of all that passed around especially unconscious of the execrations audibly whispered by spectators 'D black-hearted villian heart as black as a stove-pipe and many such. While the Judge read the decision on the points of exception which had been submitted, Brown sat very firm, with lips tightly compressed, but with no'appearance of affectation of firmness. He was like a block of stone. When the Clerk directed him to stand and say why sentence should not be passed upon him, he rose and leaned slightly forward, his hand resting on the table. He spoke timidly hesitatingly indeed and in a voice singularly gentle and mild.

But his sentences came contused from his mouth, and he seemed to be wholly unprepared to speik at this time. His words have already gone before your readers but the types can give no intimation of the soft and tender tones, yet calm and manly withal, that filled the court-room, and, I think, touched the hearts of many who had come only to rejoice at the heaviest blow their victim was to suffer. Then the udge read the death-sentence, which ha3 also Ijeen fully forwarded by telegraph. At the announcement that, for the sake of example, the execution would be more than usually public, one indecent fellow behind the Judge's chair shouted and clapped his hands jubilantly but he was indignantly checked, and in a manner that induced him to believe he would do bet to retire, which he did. It is a question, nevertheless, if the general sentiment were not fairly expressed by his action.

Brown was led away again to his place of confinement. S. Y. Tribune Harper's Terry CorresjMtiJerif From liis Excellency, Gov. J.

13, 1859. (CON'TINTEO.) At half past 10 o'clock the Herald announced from the Judges' stand that the annual address would now be delivered. A platform suitable for the occasion had been previously erected within the arena, facing which the visitors presented a dense mass of human beings. Hon. Thos.

J. Hudson, the President of the Fair, Col. J. Robinson, Col. Tarpley, Dr.

Phillips and others having been seated on the platform, Hon. Thos. J. Hudson arose and made a most eloquent, sound and able, yet brief speech, which, had we time, we should not fail to give a synopsis of. At the close of his remarks, which were listened to with marked respect and interest, he commented briefly and appropriately upon- the ability and polished mind of the gentleman selected to deliver the annual address.

He then introduced the Hon. A. M. West, of Holmes county, who delivered an address of great interest, lieing eminently sound, wise and practical, and nieritedly elicited the warm applause of the large assemblage of auditors, all of whom were pleased with its wise suggestions, and the eloquence of the Speaker. The opening exhibition within the arena, consisted of a display of REST UEVOXS, TWO To THREE YEARS OLD.

The entry was limited, and the quality of the stock was decided by the Judges to be unworthy of any premiums. BEST DEVOX HEIFER, TWO TO THREE YEARS, was next entered. Dr. M. W.

Phillips, of Hinds, was trie owner ot tne entire entry, and received the premium. They were excellent, valuable and rich-blooded stock, and were much admired by good judges. EErtT mrnilAM DUELS, TWO YEARS OLD. Mr. Eubank, of Hinds, received the miumon this class.

pre- REST JiLT.HAM COW AMI UE1IEU were next exhibited. There were six entries of very fine cattle. J. Robinson received both of the premiums, and Ins stock were worthy of it. REST AYRSHIRE BULL, AGEO.

There was but one on exhibition, the same being a finely-made animal, his line developments lietokening his richness of blood. Ho is owned by I)r. Phillips, and deservedly received the premium. EOR LEST i.RAJJE CATTLE, the premium wxs awarded to C. S.

Skidniore, of Madison. FOR BFST OHAuE BULL, the premium was given to L. P. King, of Yazoo. IiRAKT UORSKS, NATIVE RAISED.

There were three entriesoffina, rich-blooded animals. A beautiful iron-grey owned bv John llobinson, of exceedingly fine form, with proud and showy carriage one belonir-irK to V. P-ollum, would, be jnuiiounced a gay and attractive animal anywhere the third was owned by Col. J. Perkins, and is an animal of great value and beauty.

The premium was awarded to V. Oollum's spirited bay. BEST NATIVE -STALLIONS, TWO TO THREE YEARS. There were two entries in this class. Mr.

R. X. Eubank exhibited a coal-black two-3-ear old, possessing all the points and developments of a rich-blooded animal, a fine trotter, and evidently will make an excellent roadster; his form is exceedingly beautiful, plump and round, and he handled himself more easily and squarely than any colt we ever saw within an arena, fie received the premium, and richly deserved it. BET NATIVE ilAUES, THREE YEARS ANJ OVER, were next entered. There were six entries under this list, and very creditable stock they were.

E. W. Oabiness received the first premium. BEST FILLY, TV. AND UNDER THREE YEARS.

There were but two entries, the same possessing sufficient symmetry and leauty of forms to balance the deficiency in number. Mr. Edward Bass, of Madison, received the premium. REST FILLY, ONE AND UNDER TWO YEARS. The premium was deservedly given to Sam Lancaster, of Hinds county.

SUCK ISO COLTS There were two entries a fine, well-formed bay and a beautiful black. The former, owned by Dr. O. Hamilton, of Rankin, received the premium. BEST "STALLIONS AND MARES FROM OTHER STATES.

Under this entry Col. Robinson exhibited one of the most attractive and truly beautiful cream-white stallions have ever seen. He is a very handsome stallion, stylish in appearance, with a good girth, fine shoulder and arm, unusually good flank, short back, a fine loin and well-formed hind-quarters. He traveled finely, and, although not much trained, he showed a capacity for speed. Among this en try noticed with pleasure, "Sampson," owned by Amisden, of Vicksburg.

He was sired by old imported Sampson, and is indeed a most excellent specimen of a powerful and vaiuawe rjngiisn uran norse. ihere were several nne ana spintea am mals in this list, owned by other parties whose names we were unable to obtain. Amisden's Sampson' here off the blue ribbon, and as the most now erful and staunch draft horse, richly deserved it. iiau nowever, our choice between him and the beautiful cream-white owned by Col. Robinson, we should certainly choose the latter.

Aiiiisuen, aiso received the premium for the best three-year old or over mare. She is ot tme, attractive form, and of such a build as to render her very fleet. This latter entry closed the exhibition of stock for the first day. Soon after the announcement of the same the arena was made very lively and interesting by the appearance and lovely pace of sundry buggy horses, both single and double, and saddle horses. Those mounting the latter were, to the amusement of all present, practicing their equestrianship and skill in catching the Tournament ring, preparatory to the formal contest of the same.

This continued lively up to the time of our leavinsr. and a crowd of visitors were witnessing the gay sport with quite as much interest as had been given to any exercise of the day. If we mav judge by the favorable expressions of many, mi 01 inu numerous Visitors nt tliA H'n Ground yesterday were highly "ratified with the exhibitions, varied and interesting scenes throughout the day.

This point satisfactorily settled, it will be a matter of secondary consideration whether their standard-fcearer hails from the Rio Grande, Beech Island, Richmond or Chicago.

A gutta percha platform is all that will be wanted to scud them away rejoicing to enter with renewed zeal and enthusiasm on the glorious work of bamboozling the masses with continuing tho Democratic part' in power for another term." Here is tho way the Ex-Governor would meet the crisis Instead of sitting down in calm consideration of potency of moderation in Arresting the onward march of our foes, I think it lime that the public heart be aroused, by holding up the proud examples of the past and encouraging the fearless imitation of them. The feeling which inspired the noble sentiment we have counted the cost, and find nothing so intolerable as voluntary submission tj insult and wrong is not dead in the hearts of our people, and if our leaders would but rise superior to the blandishments and temptations of Washington, they' could kindle a blaze in the Southern heart that would cause the very knees of our enemies to knock together with fear and trembling. I could name ten Southern Senators, who, by a concerted movement, could, in less than three months rally their respective constituents in favor of a Southern Confederacy. The Union is not the Union which our fathers bargained for. Under it we are daily insulted, outraged and plundered, and the sooner it is dissolved the better.

To talk of friendship with those whom our rea son forbids us to have faith, and our affections wounded through a thousand pores instruct us to detest, is madness and folly." With high regard, I have the honor to bo Your obedient servant, J. 11. Adams. Two Sets of Delegates from Illinois Two sets of delentes from Illinois will seek admission in the Charleston Convention, The Doudas faction has issued a call for a Con vention to meet on the 4th of January, to make appointments and the National or Administration Democracy of the same State will meet on the 8th of January. The former will select their delegates upon the platform of squatter sovereignty, advocated by their chief.

The latter have placed themselves upon the following which is naileJ to the mast-head of their leading organ, the Chicago Herald The Herald understands the doctrine of the Democratic party, respecting Slavery in the Territories to be this That neither Congress nor the people of the Territories can pro-Mdt Slavery therein but the Constitution, as interpreted by the Supreme Court of the United States, guarantees to the slaveholder the right to take his Slaves into the Territories an I JioJl them there as property; and pledges the Federal Government to protect him in the peaceable possession of such property in any Territory of the United States that when the people of a Territory form a Constitution, preparatory to their admission as a State, then, and not till thev, can they decide to prohibit Slavery, and that when they shall have framed a Constitution, and ask to le admitted as a Slate, it" their Constitution be "republican in form," and if they have complied with the proper laws in other respects, Con; res- should admit the. lo State whether iti permit prohibit Slavery. Between delegates representing these antagonistic principles, will not be iliniculi for the delegates from Mississippi to decide, when the issue is joined at Charleston.

ARRIVAL OF TIIE OVERLAND MAIL. St. Louis, Nov. 13. The overland California mail from San Francisco, the 24th ult, three days later, has arrived.

It was generally believed throughout the State that Gov. Weller would appoint a U. S. Senator to succeed Mr. Broderick, before the next steamer sailed.

Those best informed on political matters assert that the Governor would select a Senator who was not closely allied to either of the political parties, and thereby render the cliances of his own election by the Legislature more favorable.

George Huie. IHONOOKAFHIU RETORT. Mr. President If either of the Senators will withdraw his motion to adjourn until Monday morninsr, I would ask the Senate to pass these resolutions. In offering them it was not my purpose by any means to tres pass upon the time or patience of the Senate by making a speech.

1 liave thought it improper, in my being the successor of the deceased, to let the occasion pass without some word in honor to his memory. Profound silence, Duritg your last session, Senators, the deceased was one of your number, standing in your midst in all the bloom of youth and of health. With a mind glowing no doubt with the anticipations of a future career of usefulness, none had so good a right, none had a better right to calculate upon a long stretch of years than he. But in the midst of all anticipations, while health glowed upon his cheek, the destroyer came and laid upon him the cold hand of death. On every occasion with this honorable body, with his country he deserved that warm union which blended his existance with wife and and children.

Laying the deceased in the cold tomb terminated all his fond hopes of life and of country. I have not lieen advised minutely of the early history of Mr. Thompson, but I learn, however, that he was a native of the State of South Carolina that State of honorable impulse and that the first act of life in reaching majority of years, was to imigrate to this State where he settled, adopting it as the home of his choice and entering fully into all its' interests. In the public career of the deceased he was ever3thing that patriotism coulJ wish. While he a3 firm and inflexible in the maintenance of his own opinions, he awarded to others differing with him in political sentiment alike honest patriotism.

In his intercourse with the world he was ever on the side of justice and of right. Knowing him always to be honest in purpose and candid in avowal he was not ready to mistrust to one or suspicion any fellow-being. In the great tide of humanity Mr. President, he was truly a worker and was ever ready to lend a helping hand. But every quality prompted him to interest of country or to ameliorate the condition of his kind.

The church of his choice never made a requisition upon his generosity or liberality which was not responded to literally and generously. All K-nevolent institutions of the country claim him as its own. And in masonry, in that great macninery of society, in truth, all organizations of different natures having for their purpose the promotion of public interest and private benefit claim Ids labors, and in all of which he labored ever with the instinctive industry which prompts man to noble and generous action. But he has passed away Mr. President; although he gave earnest indication of a bright and promising future, he has been cut down in the midst of life.

All past anticipations have been consigned to the grave and we are left to derive a sulutary monition from his early decease. And what a call is made upon us, Senators, to prepare to be alike ready. And I hope the Senate will indulge me in my aggression for a few moments. Eight years ago and mere were those here whose cheeks bloomed as with the freshness of youth and the vigor of those to-day we meet. But ah, alas what solemn impressions illing the cur rent of that number of years are made.

And are we ready ask Mr. President, with the white lock, with dim vision, with palsied hand with the tremulous voice, with the timid step Ah, Senators, these are but the Drestaire of the tomb, admonishing us to be in readiness un- mistaken evidences, Senators, that many of us have reached the acclivity of the hill of life. Yea, not only having reached the acclivity but on its opposite side. We are bending our steps uownward; we are upon that side in which there are no smiles, no jocularity, no mirth, but all solemn, solemn reality and a few more bending, timid steps will bring us to the basis at which we must enter the chirk, mysterious vaney. Then let us take monition of the early de cease of our lamented friend and be up and do ing while littfe remains ot the day subsiding.

Let us derive a benefit from the early deceased and be as he was, ready to enter that dark, mysterious valley without a fear or a dread. Then, Mr. President, if it be the will of the Senate now to pass those resolutions, in the event of no other Senator wishing to remark upon the subject, I ask that the resolutions be adopted and that the Senate do now adjourn until Monday morning at iu o'clock. unanimously adopted. The Senate ad journed.
