THE Locoroco CONVENTION,

liz LOOOIO wv OON AiCi''
TO nomnnie candidates for the Senate for
Washington county, met at the court house on
Thursday Inst TO the number of about 300. Col.
II. N. Bdylies, Of this village, was appointed
Chairman, and after organization, the Convention
adjourned to meet III the afternoon in the Brick
Church. Met according to adjournment; 1876
votes were east on ballot for Senator; some
probably withheld their votes, and we therefore
set down the whole number Of delegates present
al about 425.
o. w. BUTLER, Esq. OF Stow, Lamoille Co.,
and NATHANIEL EATON, Esq. Of Calais,
were nominated ne candidates for the Sennie.
Charles Reed Esq. reported series OF resolutions,
containing about the usual quantity of professions
of pure democracy claiming, of course, for the
locofocos tire exclusive right TO its possession md
assigning all the wings over TO federalism. We
notice that particular care wns taken on two
points first to assert the falsehood that the wings
conceal their principles aud second TO omit en-
dorsing Buchanau's frtnuus speech for rcouc.
ton of the wages OF labor--nn omission which is
remarkable, since that speech wus so fully en-
dorscd Ivy the last winters convention. ExGov.
Van Ness addressed the Convention for about two
hours, aud l. l. Lamb moved vote Of thanks
therefor, which was agreed to We ought per-
haps, also to say that Woo ter Sprngue gave II
very lucid we mean, to those who understood It !
exposition of the manner in whirh the Sub-treasti-
ny is to shut out importers Of foreign goods or
compel them to pny duties in specie. Seeing tina,
ylmeJiem importers are placed upon the same
footing with the foreign houses, and nso TINT the
specie for duties is drained from american not
British pockets we were really nj loss to per-
ceivc the point of his argument. 1t is to be pre-
sumcd that MIR. 5. saw it very distinctly. Sundry
resolutions Of thanks were adopted, and among
Them ono 10 the wings of the place for their ciUi
treatment. We really feel obliged to he grateful
for this condesccnsion to our political friends
yea, we promise to use our exertions 10 recipro
cate the favor, at the very next Wing convention
which is not insulted by g the gentleman from
Berlin" On the whole, after the drumming OF
the Patriot, the poetry of the CALL The battle shout,
and the Dragging, and wihal the rXiraneous ait
of Mr.. Van Ness, the number got out to this con
| veniion wns small. In other times it would have
been called large now, when he people are tax
ne politics in hand, it is decided failure. W.
look upon it as an indication that the people o
Washington-nyc, Of long hcnighted, loco-ioc'
ridden Westinghouse not satisfied that all i
righ, with the government. Are we rigln' Arr

THE STANDING ARMY

Even the Patriot is alarmed AZ the standing nr.
my of two hundred thousand men. II is not
alarmed however, as were the democrats of old,
such ms jefferson and Madison. Al its alarm is,
that the people will not tolerate this monsrouA
scheme to add power to the federal he'd and
therefore It suggests TINT the scheme is merely an
organization VI The militia. We affirm that the
bill prepared by the Secretary of War, md mp
proved Ivy the President, provides as fllows, a.
mong other things:
LIST. 100000 men to I've drafted for service and
reserve of equal number TO he armed and or
gNnized.
2d--that they are at the command of the Prcsi-
dent.
3h mat, when in active service, or when cal
led out ms they may he, twice year,) by the
President, they are to be paid 10y the federal gov
erument.
we conlinc ourselves to these three great points
sercice, confroL, pay, under the federal govern
nen: aud what more is necessary TO constitute
II standing army which should arouse every man
who is Jealous of federal power? We ask will
it do, TO give the Executive the Immense power
which he could secure from so lnrgc nm army,
directed by his will and paid at his hands? The
democrats of old thought it would not do ; and
every true democrat will say now, that it will not
do. Give us enough of the militia organize
them, and pay them, too, il need he but never
let them ptss under the federal yoke. The states
should he the controllers and pny.nasters of the
military power within them, in time Of peace
This should lie inst ted upon if it is not, we
cease 10 have militia OF the people, aud identi-
fed in iner's st with the people. They become n
federal army, linked by tue ties Of interest, us well
by The force of law to the federal government.

TIE SPIRIT OF LoCoFoCoIsu

IN Congress on the LIST inst. Waddy Thomp.
sob of S. G.. laid before the House authentic md
most distressing news of Indian ravuges in FIori.
ia, and lie begged the House to devote one half
hour to his bill for the relief of Florida: the To-
cofocos almost to man, voted against doing so.
Another Wing then renewed the effort, stated the
absolute necessity of the passage OF the bill and
moved thut two hours be set apart for its consid-
GRAFTON but again the locofocos refused On The
I'd inst. the attempt was renewed-the Speaker
assured Mr.. Thompson that he could caIl up his
bill in committee of the whole the House went
into committee, Mr.. r. callsd for his bill, but the
locofuco chairman (Nlr. Banks) disrsgarded the
call and took up the - Sub.treasury bill.
BE il remembered that when the appropriation
bills, to provide for the salaries of The Office hol-
ders, were OIL the docket, this same sub-trensury
bill was suffered to lie five months but when the
people of Florida are crying for help TO save
them from massacre, this same bill cannot be laid
aside for thirty minutes This is the spirit of 10 d.
coiocosm-in Congress.

Mr.. Forsyth, who was once all powerful with
MIR. Van Buren,, has sunk into insgnfcance, in
the estimation of The inmate of the White II ouse.
There is gentleman here, originally from Yer
mont, MIR. Niles,) who negotiated the treaty with
Sarlinia. He was tavore OF the Secretary Of
State, and, it is said, was promised the appoint
ment rs Charge To Sardinia. AT all events, he
was strongly recommended TO the President by
Mr.. Forsyth, and yet another gentleman, Mr..
Rodgers, was nominated for the station, not only
without consulting the Secretary OF State, but as
nm informed, aud verify believe without his
knowledge, until after the nominations were ac-
tually made before the Senate. = Washington cor
respondent Of the Boston Alias.
DIR. Niles is n native of Orange county, but has
been for many years in Europe He is descen.

been familiar with the delas of diplomacy hut
it seems these reasons, with the fact that he
had already negotiated one treaty with Sardinia
and secured the appreciation and recommended.

C. p. VAN NESS ON THE STUMP.

BY reference TO n noiire of the locofoco con-
venIion, holden here on We'd csday last will be
seen that Hon. C. p. VAN Ness, Elk Governor and
Elk Minister to Spah, was present and deve red
a very long speech on that occasion. Ill. was
nj Woodstock and delivered speech, which is
spread far and wide; we understand, too, that he
is expected TO take tour through large part of
the State on the same errhnd. Indeed, himself
to the stump, and is electioneering for himself
and for the administration for which he is plet ge1
to vote, il an eec,or This is an extraordinary
sight in Vernon, and MIR. Ynp Ness has right
to expect tina, he shall receive any thing less than
an extraordinary notice He courts attack in the
position he has nssumeG-he deserves it and he
will owe it 20 the iOrbehrance of his opponents if
he does not get enough of IT, His speech deliver
ed here was issue of misrepresentation and pet
titnggery, disgracefnlto man of his abilities aud
evinced spirit of radicallsn of the most deslruc-
tire sort. We have prepared full notes or bis
speech which we are unable TO give this week.
They will appear in our next; and il they do not,
add lustre to the distinguished and somewhat
peculiar political character which Mr.. Van Ness
irs acquired, it will he because the tricks and dis
honorable concealnens of the eleciioneerer can
not add to the intamy the rewarded traitor. We
speak OF political treason the history of n past
Senatorial election will illustrate our allnsn.
