Death of Professor J3. R B. Bfarse. During the past week tbo tolc graph has brought the intelligence of the death of its inventor, Professor ' X' A Saranej F. 1$. Morse, which occurred at ^118.residence in j^evy Yorif city, on the ist i.DSt. Ho died full of year? and honors, having nearly completed hjs seventy-first year, and having re ceived, perbaps, more aisunguisutu foonors than h.Tre ever bpen accorded to any othei; 4fPer,can. Crowned bpads have showered.Mpon him marks of their favor, and only a few months a/gpo tho nriyeiji'ng of tys statue, in New York city showed tho apprecia tion of his countrymen. Theso hon ors were well merited if greatness is to be mensured by the vast results of an invention which has already changed the faeo pf the civilized world. . . . Long an eminent painter, accident sop.ms to have turned his attention to | those electrical researches which havo immortalized ljis name. In lS-iO.ho perfected his .palont at the Patent: Offico, and set about get ting his telegraph into practical ope ration. In 1844 tho first cIcetriG tele graph in the "United States, between Baltimore and Washington was com pleted. Since then its wire* have extended over the country to the ex tent of more than fifteen thousand miles. Thoro has been a lengthy con ^roverqy .as to me reaj inveoior 01 tho electric telegraph, and it is care fully analyzed by Dr. Wynter in his "Curiosities of Civilization." Subma rine telegraphy originated also with Mr. Morse, /who laid the first subma rine telegraph lines in New York harbor in tho autumn of 1842, arid re ceived at tho time, from tho Ameri can institute, a gold medal for that achievement. ? In a letter from Mr. Morso to tho Secretary of the Treas ury of the United States, dated Au gust 10, 1843J it is believed occurs the first suggestion, pf tho projnet of tho Atlantic telegraph. Professors Morse had his summer house at Poughkeep sie, on the banks of the Hudson,: and his winter residoncc-,io Xew York city. . The Tobacco Seizures and the;; Abbe !"1 ville Merchants.- . Id the published proceedings of the; United States Court, which we fiud in the Charleston papers of Friday} the 5th inst., occurs the following paragraph, which certainly docs very great injustice to; the Abbeville mer chants, and perhaps to others, whose names are mentionod therein : "Convictions - wero. found against the following nersons for haviuer to bacco in their possession with a view to evade Scetion 48 of the tax act of June 30, 1864, and they were fined as follows : Bower \V\ Barnwell, J200 ; Marhein Kaphan, $50; Patrick Can trcH," $20"James R. Cunningham, $200; Andrew M. Hill, $100; L. M. Fouche,' $100; Phillip M. Cohen, $200; Clara Moses, $1Q>0; Thomas G Mnsse)*, $150; Thomas P. Quarles, $100; James T.' Robertson, $200; John' C." Frazer, $50; Andrew B, Wardlaw, $200 ; Leonard W, White, $200; The'injustice consists in .charging that theso honor^e and Mgh-min aea men nave Doen convicted 01 '.'bavin# tobacco in their possession toith view to ei?adc the law." To avoid trouble, e^pepsc, flnd the loss of. iirne in attending. Court, they have plead ed guilty to a lechni^i. violation of tbo law, in having unstamped tobacco in thoir possession^; but tl\cy db how as they, have always tjone?^o^sted ^heir jiJnocence of ^ny guiltyintout. XTn am Knm iriio knows anything of these gentlemen, could believe thorn guilty o? a wilful viola tion of the iaw, ftid it is certainly a gross misrepresentation, to makp any other statement.. They were guilty merely of an'inadvertence. "The head and front of tbeir offending, hath this extent, no moro." The Democratic Dominating Con vention.?-We loarn from our New York exchanges that Mr, August Bel mont, the Chairman of the Demo cratic National Executive Committee, has repently visited Washington and conferied with the members of the ? 7 f f. party in Congress uj>.on "the situa tion" and the course to bg pursued.? Upon the National Executive Com mittee, of which Mr. Belmont is chair man, devolves the duty of oalling and fixing tfye time and place of meeting t>f the Democratic Nominating Con vention. "\Ve lake it, however, that in his passive policy Mr. Belmont has D.en acting iV accordance with the views of a majority of tbe influonlia and activo Democrats.

The question is one of equal importance at the North* foe upon tho great staple '.'depends otic hbiiitj to meet our commercial obligations to Europe and to' regutato oiir busi ness at liomfe. It is 'beyond doubt that General Grant will mnke extra nrrlinnrv pffhrts to rarrv tho Southern Vl Vi,"w V ' "7" ~ J ~ . ' , | States. To this end, every species of cajolery, eVery sensation dodebknown to political wire-pullers, will bo used to 'bring out and fasten tho negro vote. 'There will be mass Conventions barbecues, torch-light processions, protraeted meetings, and all that Sort of thing, to tickle tho African ear and eye.' Labor will, therefore, be uncertain in" its operations. "The ne^ro,' after all, is but a child in intel lect. Ho is easily draw'ri a to ay by glitter' and show.
