Faction has baleiuI success in tho Le-

United States from that State, by defeat
ing decision Oh the part Of both Houses

this proceeding is, as far rs we know
without example. Legislative bodies II
States have, before nov, refused to nsree
10 90 into join, meeting for the purpose o
clec,ing Senators; but never before, We
believe, have they defeated BY violence
what has been already deliberately deter.
mined. TIE precedent would be a most
dangerous one, if il were probable thing
tina, the proceeding should ever be reuem-
bercd in any State but to be abhorred and
Stunned.
On tee eth instant, after being 10 ses-
session for fyc days, spent in vain efforts
to carry into effect the joint resolution Of
The two Houses for olccting Senators, the
Convention adjourned sine die.-Nat. Int.

We agree with Amos Kendall for once
in our lives. In a late number of his pa.
per, in the delightful anticipation Of soon
recovering the spoils, he says" The first
duty of the Democratic party, on recover
ing their power in the State governments,
is to restore 10 the people u sound currency,
aud reduce domestic exchanges 10 reaSoad
bic rates" But Amos ought to have gone
step farther, and told us how the currcn-
CIV became deranged, and exchanges SO
uarcasonably high The people had 4
good currency and equal exchanges when
Gen. jackson came into power. Who
destroyed the one, and derangcd the other
The question answers itself. Will the
people restore to power the men who de.
ranged our entire financial machinery, in
the vain hope that they will adjust its parts
again, and restore lis uniform and vigorous
