THE CONVENTION OF THE
DEMOCRACY,

This assembage was not so great as we
had been led TO expect from the prodigous
hustle which had been made about it, and The
eIuliiHg tone which the annexation leaders
in this region have recently assumed. We
were credibly informed by gentleman who
made an actual coun, in the forenoon that ore
hundred and twenty rank and file were at
that time present in The convention-there
were probably more in The afternoon. OF
leaders among whom we observed several
who have recently been permitted 10 taste
the nectar OF Office there was certainly noiack.
But their sleek condition, their glossy broad
cloths and the complainant manner in which
'hey sporied their golden appcndages pro-
claimed them anything than the lovers OF the
masses whom they pretended 10 represent.-
The organization of the Convention respl,ed
in the appointment of Levi B. Villas Of Cbel-
sea, President, several Vice Presidents ofalI
Of whose names we cannot be certain, and
Z. r. Wright ofthis town, and another gen.
t!eman as Secretaries. In the afternoon the
nominating committee reported in favor Of
The last years ticket, 10 wit: Daniel Kellogg
for Governor, Hyltis Lyman Lieut.. Gov. and
Daniel Bdldlrin Treasurer. This nonina
ton was approved by an unanimous vote
The next business was the discussion Of
me resolutions reported by the Committee
raised for that purpose, which we're, ofcourse,
highly congratulatory for the ,riumpb of DEM
cratic principles in the election Of Polk the
Shareholder, The advocate Of Slcrery and An

TEXAS ANN EXED.

All doubts are now removed. Texas is
annexed Texas hastens TO come into the
Union under Browns resolutions. She asks
Ito farther favor than TO be sure of being in
eorpora'ed into the Union. not even that her
debts should be Pai6. But who doubts that
eventually the twenty millions which she ow es
VIII be wruns from the pockets of the people
of this Union? OF this we NAV he certain
when President Jones in his Message 10 the
Texan Congress tells that body that ..al,ho'
the terms offered by the United States appear
less favorable Than was desirable, yet the verv
liberal and agnanimous views of Mr.. Polk.
and the promises in regard to future advanta-
ges render these terms much more accepta-
bile than they otherwise would have BEEN"
Thus has slavery triumphei forever in this
Union. That horrid institution which tw enty
years ago both the North and the South ex-
pected would become finally extinct as the
word slave was not mentioned in the Consti-
tuition OF the Union is actually in The ascend
ant. The compromises of the Constitution
are perverted, & the whole American people
nave become The hewers of wood and drawers

clique OF Southern shareholders.

has rendered the usual practice Of putting not only

TEXAS AND OREGON-WHITHER
ARE WE TENDING1

The news from Texas, published by us in
our Semi Weekly on Saturday. will be found
on the first page Of this paper. Briefly, the
Congress of Texas has rushed pell- nell for
Annexation. as every body expected. In the
highest Legislative Assembly Of any other
people on the face ofthe earth, there would
have been some regard paid to decency il none
to dignity in acting on proposition involving
the grave question of merging the National
existence in that Of another Country; but
there was nothing of this in Texas. Con
dirions, reservations, elaboration, were un-
thought of; Tyler's selection from the two
projects 'unsight. unseen and the only mat
ter of difference was a scandalous contest be-
the two Houses as to which should have the
honor of originating the proposition of formal
concurrence. The more we see Of tins Re
pnbl'c ofTexas' the less inclined we are to
fall in love with it.
We have not yet received the official corr
ispnndence between our government and that
Of Texas in referance to Annexation, though
it had been published in Texas before the SAIL
ed. We learn generally, however, the Exec
utive has taken tho responsibility assuring
the Texans that.if they will but accede to An
nexation. they shall hare advantages secured
10 them orer and beyond those stipulated in the
Jsint Resolutions rhich were barely squeezed
through our Congress. We look with impa-
thence for the corr espondence' hich will re-
veal the nature and extent of these unauthor-
lied pledges and how far our country is COM
mited by them. 1--WE suspect the enforcement
of an outrageous extension toward Mexico is
one Of them, and we infer that an immediate
movement of IS. troops to the Rio del Norte
