Caroline County. May 18th, 1892.
This very day, when your paper cana to hand I
was thinking of giving you some account of the
proceedings OF a something, hardly know what o
call it, Political Meeting, q suppose) which was
held at our Court-H House yesterday, it being Court
dav.
ton given by correspondent of meeting held in
King William, so exactly suited the character of the
meeting held at our Court ouse, that began to
think 1t almost unnecessary to say any thing more,
than to inform you, and yOnr readers, that it was
only necessary to read the description given of the
King William meeting, 10 get pretty good idea of
the meeting held at Caroline Court House.
But, do suppose, that the King William meet
ing has been fairly beaten by the ono held in our
county. The two meetings differed materially in
their conclusons-for it seems that majority of
the King William meeting cried out great is Mar
tin Van Buron-whereas. majority of the Caroline
meeting cried out put down Van and elevate P. p.
Barbour to the Vice Presidency while tho minoriiy
cried as loudly for Van Buren,.
Truly, it day Of great confusion and dis.
tress III the Jackson ranks Some sweated, looked
sour and dismayed; while some of the speakers on
the occasion, declared that they could see in the
! countenanccs Of the National Republicans that
they laughing in their sleeves, at the division
which aPpcard among the jackson party. The
contention was caused by two Resolutions which
were offered to the meeting. The object OF the
first was to send Delegates to the Baltimore Con.
vcntIon. The object of the second was, to send
Delegates to the Charlottesville Convention.
The friends Of Van Buren,, cloaked under pro-
fcsscd friendship for Barbour, cxertcd themselves
very hard TO impress it upon the minds of Barbours
true friends, that it was entirely probable, that
Barbour would be nominated by the Baltimore Con-
ventlon; said that it was, would be composed of
jackson mon, unpcdgcd to support any man. But
that the object Of the Convention was, to ascertain
what man of the Jackson party stood the best
chance to beat John Sergeant.
But the Barbourlies fully competent to de-.
tect and expose their designs, and set before the
People the true object Of the Baltimore Convention
as well Us every political sin of which Van Burcn
has been guilty, from his youth up to the present
day.
Aiter the meeting had been sitting three or four
hours, they were compelled to como to some deci-
SION, (or God knows when they would have ended
their SESSION. or be turned out of the Court ousc
TO make room for the Court TO sit. The decision
was, 81 to Al for sending Delegates to Charlottos.
vile.
Thus you see, the Jlckson party, not onlv in
King William, but in Caroline also, are composed Of
such materials, as to make it impossible TO keep
them together. The morter with which they were
cernenled, was not we'll tempered.

In the proceedings Of Congress which We pub

will find on our outer form, it will be that n
second attempt was made by Mr.. Condct Of New
Jersey, to enquire into the conduct of the Presi-
dent Of the United States, relating 10 Gen. Hous-
toms attack on Mr.. StaDbery. The first effort to
introduce an enquiry, it will be rccollected, was
made by Mr.. Stanbery, who alleged that the Pre-
tldent had encouraged the attack, and subsequent
~ expressed his APPRECIATION Of Houston's conduct;

From the Philadelphia Inquirer, tho Jackson Van
Buren, Pennsylvania leader:
1--WE hear great complaints made by the me.
ohanics and manufacturers in this city, at the
course which 1t is rumonred the highly respcc able
representative in Congress for tho Second Con.
gressiona District intends to pursue upon the sub
ject of the Tariff. 1t is said that Mr. Horn will
vote for the projet of Secretary MTanc, and thus
run counter TO tho generally expressed opinions of
pennsylvania upon the subject. Whatever NAV be
the course of Mr.. Horn, believe he will he ac
tuatcd by patriotic motives but it is proper that he
should be appraised Of the rumours circulated among
his constituents with reference to his views and
detormination MS it is also proper that he should
know the views and wishes of his Tariff friends
at homo. Hence we have thought it we'll to give
him this slight hint
Compare this wi it'll the edit orials of the Jackson
Van Buren, Richmond Enquirer, and what har
monious Party wo behold. Here are the very
antipodes upon the greatest political question
which agitates this Union, in concert upon the
Baltimore Convention, for this me assure is equally
favorite with the Van Buren, party in Pennsy.va
MIA and Virginia The ultra Tariff, the other
ultra Free Trade. TIE "choiee of eyils" State
will as usual get the worst of the bargain.
