Convention of Editors.-An Alabama paper calls upon. the editors of that State, to express their views upon the propriety and expediecy of holding a Convention, to improve the mranners ofeditors, and lor other purposes. Whatever may be ihought of Cotton Conventions, Political Convenl tions,Moral Convenitonsotn entions of any kind, there certtinly can be no hject ion to a general Convention of tlik kind, throughout otnr count ry. There is Pgreat roema for improvetit in the manners of the conductors ofhe Press. Some editors do not lesitate to call their brethren., with whom they have a political ditfirence, or one of any kind, liar<, tiols, or scoundrels. They apply to thet.any vituperative epi thet, which their fancy may suiggest. It is a common charge for editors of one party, to say, that those of the other party, ar bribied-bought uip. This in bad taste at least. Such sweeping charges should not he made, unless they can besubstantinted. When the con:iluctors of ie Press descend to low, personal abuse, it is a pretty good proof that their argunent is exhausted. If they have no regard fior their readers, they should entertain sullicient self-re spect, not to resort to such seurrility and vile blackguardism. A Florida editor, not long since, speaking oh the quarrels of editors, says, that they can much better employ their time, in quarrelling with their delinquent subscribers. We are cf his opinion. We recommend to the craft, not to spare those of' their patrons who, by their conduct, show that they nerer intend toI'ay their printer'b hills. Matrimonial Dificuly.-A Northern paper states, that the celebrated female teache, Mrs. Etmma Willard, who was married last year to Dr. Yates, has sepa rated frotm him, and tas. returned to Troy, N. Y. ; with the intention of again connecting herself with the Femtale Semi nary at that place. Dr. Yates is repre seuted as a cruel husband, a debauichee, and an infidel. Doubtless,, Mrs. Willard found it easier to govern one hundrcd and fifty girls thatn, one man. Srcels rf 31atrimnny.-llf any old ba chelor or old maid, can take con-,lation from the sulbjeined, whieh we copy from a Nut hern pa perIet theti do so:-" A man out Wes:,alvertises his wil'e a, havitg left his bed and board, att-l offers a reward of one Lundred dollars to any otte who will prevent his ever la3 ing his eves tipon her again. In return, the unfortunate lady advertises her lord and manste', and oers ('ne hundred dollars reward to any otie, who will prove that her husband ever had any bed and board." An1 old bachelor, in \\ indham villa Vermont, advertises that he will receive sealed proposals from old tnaids, lor en tering into tie marriage contract. None tinder 35 years of age tieed apply. as fte wants nothing to do with giddy, flighty young thitgs. The New York -% vening Post, of the 23'b uht., says :-" Specie to a v'ery coin sid'rable amtotuna, was dlraon ufr'ott thie banks of'this city-yesterday, by the aicets oaf the Philadelphia banks.
