In this paper will be found lengthy
account Of doings of the National nomi-
mating Convention, and also sonnet thing Of
the Convention of Ratification.
Some of the locofoco papers aver that
the Young Mems Convention was fal-
lure but they lie positively and down
rightly when they say so. 1t more than
came up to the expectations of the most
sanguine.
The number of strangers who register
ed their names at the Exchange was 65,-
600, and there were many thousands who
did not do so.
The friend who sent us ''The Oath and
The Kiss'' is informed that as we have for
years known ii by ro,e, and as it is pro-
badly thus known to all our readers. ii
would not look well to publish it as orr

RIOT AND BLOODSHED.

One of the most frightful and alarming riots
kensngton, in the county of Philadelphia, on
last Monday afternoon, and continued up to
late hour on Wednesday night. Such indeed
was the fearful extent to which it ragged, that it
might with propriety be termed ci, il war, which
for time, set all the authority of law at def
ancc.
The reports, and newspaper accounts that
have reached us are various, and contradictory
in regard to tho origin Of the outbreak. 1t APP
pears from all that we can gather, that a meet
ing Of members of the Native American party
was held on Monday afternoon at the corner OF
Master and Second SITS. in kensington. Lewis
c. Levin, Esq, had commenced to speak, when
IA rain coming up the meeting adjourned to the
Market House. number of citizens Of the dis
trict principally Irish Catholics, had previously
taken shelter there, and gave way TO the Ma
tive Americans with reluctance. Mr.. Levin had
scarcely recommended his speech when an alter
cation began between the two parties which led
on TO desperate consequences
The precise origin Of the difficulty does not APP
pear. From blows, it grew to the use of brick,
bats, from brickbats to fire arms. A volcy oil
shot was fired from the IIibernia Hose House,
which led to charge upon the Irishmcn, who
continued to fire, killing and wounding mum,
Der ottlIc other party, who also rcsorted to the
Use ofguns and pistols. The Irish shot from
their houses, which Undue ed the Natv cs to Sc,
fire to them. Some thirty or forty houses, st
Augustine's and st. Michae's (Ca,holic) church.
cs, and the Catholic Seminary were burned
down, and also tie houses of two priests
The number of persons killed. has not been
asccrtainod-probably from fifteen 10 twenty,
and agrcat many more wounded, many Of them
very seriously
Quiet was restored on Thursday, and the city
is under charge of voluntary patrols ocitzens as
sisted by the military, but the excitement of the
public mind is still tremendous, and may yet
lead to further disturbance and outbreak
Rail Roud .lccidem.-A collision of two
trains Of Cars occurred on the Railroad
five miles below IIavre de Grace, on Sat-
urday night last, which was attended with
serious and melancholy consequences
A brakeman named John Russell was Kill
led, Cha les Hill, The conductor had one
of his legs 50 much injured that i, had to
be ampularcd, ger'Ieran from Ohio had
his leg broken, a Mr.. Cooper Hl Reading,
Pa, had his back severely I'M .red, and
several others were seriously hurt.
The accident was owing to an alera-
ton in the place Of passing, touching
which but one of the conductors had re-
ceived instructions.
The Passengers held meeting on board
the Steamboat at II. de Grace at which
Daniel Webster presided. They passed
a number OF resolutions rejecting upon
the management that allowed the pos,ibili-
ty of the occurrence of such accidents,
and pledged themselves to assist any oG
the injured persons who were unable To
bring suit against the company.
