dlcous warehousing system, Ike that adopted in all
countries where cash duties enforced The system
Of paying duties goods Immediately Importation
before they sold for consumption operates upon

10 adrance the duties imposed by the Government on
the consumers Of imported goods.
In England the first proposition TO 'caTeouse goods
was made Sin I733 but slow is the progress of cor

city of London 10 Liverpool 1885, and has since been
gradually extended TO other ports, until Poole vas

The system Of cash duties without warehousng, in.

Congress ought 10 be called to it ct To compel
merchants 10 pay duties upon goods long before they
may wish sell them, seems just much 0f The

Nomination Of Presidential Candidate.
We recomme nd To renders the able Address nj
the Democracy of Brunswick TO the People OF Vngl.
mia. They urge the meeting of State Convention 81
Richmond on the iih alarch-and among other sub.
jects TO come within the purvlew Of that body they
specify action to be taken for the meeting of a
National Convention, TO nominate candidates for the
Presidency and Vice Presidency of the T. s. THIS OBJ
ject appeurs 10 be winning and more the attention
of the Republican Party. Ii is unquestionat!y the
only safe Of uniting their efforts, and Of defeat,
ing the Coon party.
The Republican members Of the Tennessee LpCisla
ture have already broken ground upon the matter
We have not yet the Address whch they put forth
to the Republicans of Tennessee in their meeting Of
the llth instantbut we find in the NASHVILLE Union
of the 18th the following Resolutions, which ez
tracted from those proceedings:
sResoircd, That in the opinion of this meeting, har
mony, union, and concert ofacon alone necessary
insure the Democratic party OF the Union entire and
complete success at The next general election.
Resolrtd, That the most effective aud certain
means Of securing such harmony, union and concert
of action, we approve of National Democratic Con.
hah hold IN fbo If tha Re-
publican party and will in good faith support the
limitations which may be fairly made by such Conven.
tion Of candidates for President and Vice Presidential
the U. S at the next election.
"Resoieed, That full and ample notice should be given
of the time and place of holding said Convention, 10
the end the whole body of the Democracy may be
fully and fairly represented therein; and with Tat view
be it further
"Resoired, That we respectfully propose 10 the De.
nocratc party in other States Democratic National
Convention to be composed of Delegates elected or
chosen by the Democratic party in the manner ind
cording TO the usuges observed in the several STATES
respectively and that said Convention assemble the
city of Baltimore in the State Of Maryland on the 4h
Monday Of the mnntl of November, 1913
"Resored, That we invite the action Of the Demo
cratic party in our sister States the proposition
tanned in the foregoing resolution, and which We re.
spectfullv submit TO their consideration.
In the same spirit, we find and repubish the FIJI
lowing article from the an York Plebean of the 2ih
instant
".Fanning the EmJers'-The Federal papers aie
circulating the ru,nor that MIR Calhoun will be
ddote before the people, whatever may be the decscn
of the National Convention. There is no foundation
for this rumor. All the papers in the interest Of NJ
Calhoun at the South and Southwest announce Inn
as their candidate, subject TO the decision Of Nation
al Convention The Globe speaking of him, says.
sAs to MIR Calhoun, think that paper has long
since shown that with US, by cones are bygoncs We
did, in former times, say some pretty hard things Ct
him. and afraid, in return, as hard things we're
s,id Of up. But have long since sat down in :he
sane council house and smoked the calumet together
Our war hatchets unburied, only 10 wet them 10
the eyes in the blood OF our common enemies; AID,
should national convention appoint him great chef,
we will follow his warpath, and fight in hrs shade as
long as foe the great Democratic tribe remains 10
daken skies with the smoke OF his wgwam, or leave
h 8 track upon the leaves of our bunting grounds -
This, safely announce, is os 1t should be, Vie
prevalent sentiment of the Democratic party Inc
Democr ratio National Convention Will in it's selection,
reflect the voice Of the Democracy, and whether IT Sc
lects MIR Van Buren,, Mr.. Calhoun or any other c'''
,npuished Democrat, the selection will meet with m
unanimous response. Tanning the embers OF d'scofd
old game Of Federalism. In the North they charge
that Mr. Calhoun will run ut any rate, 10 prejudice The
minds Of Mr. Van Burens friends against Mr. Calhoun
and in the South they stndIously MAINTAIN that M
Van Buren, will take the field under The same ci'crr
stances, and for the same end. They ialsfy IN BON
cases. The nominee Of the Convention WI! he lie
Democratic candidate for the next President ana GU
word for il, he will be triumphantly."
