0EThe Junior Editor of the State Sentinel
as travelling in the East and writing letters
home. He was lately for few DAYS in Wash.
ington City, and ia giving a short account of
who and what he SAW there says:
81 not only saw the big buildings bnt the big
men In them also. Of the last, should Judge
Mr.. Secretary WALKER to be the greatest DO
litically, though the smallest physically among
those whom | conversed with"
The State Journal in noticing this letter of
the Junior says: "After referring to an Office
seeker from Tennessee-insinuating it was all
the recommendation Mr. Polk wanted. to know
that the applicant was from that State-the
Junior takes no further notice of the Presiden-
tial incumbent. Polk was styled "voung hick-
ory," but the Junior knocks the bark off the
green sapling or else overlooked it among the
BIG timber of Washington, for he says.
81 looked, painfully, for the shade of Gen.
Jackson but need not say that saw nothing
of it."
The question will not new be-"who is
James X. Polk?"-but, ,ohere is the ..shade of
Gen. Juckson?"

NATIONAL AND STATE CONVENTION.

The STATE Journal has the following well
timed remarks upon this subject. We hope to
see an early organization of our party, not that
we have the least fear of the result, let the
fight commence when it may, but for the ben
eft Of the felo Whig editors, who, having strag-
gled from slime of their duty" are now busily
enquiring where they are. 1t isour misfortune
to number in our ranks a few short sighted in
dividuals, who, unlike the enemy, never could
learn wisdom from experience. Nevertheless
we hope by an early organization to show them
in what part of the field our battery is posted,
and induce them to rally around their colors,
prepared to charge in line upon the citadel of
the enemy.
"a National Convention is the only safe
mode of selecting candidates for President and
Vice President The Wings will resort to
that method. The place and time at which it
is to be held must soon be determined. 1t
ought to be held in Columbus, Ohio, the first
week in next May. 1t ought to be the true ex-
ponent Of the wishes of the voters of the Whig
party. lfheld at Baltimore, its decision will
be influenced, in great measure, by the wire
workers who congregate at Washington City.
Self constituted delegates should not be per-
mittod to take seats in that convention. Mem
prrS Of Co"Sress are rrvVSs,-
IL nalaGa tes should be
appointed with reference to that businessalone.
and when assembled, true Wings, whether
residents of the North or South,) whose popn-
iarty will render an election certain, should
be nominated for those offices without regard
to the personal preferences of the delegates
Members of Congress who assume it to be a
part OF their duty to influence National Con-
ventions, are too apt to be controlled by their
own hopes of preferment in the advancement
OF personal favorites. Ifthe voice of the mass
es OF the Wing Party can be heard in the Con-
vention, we are confident ticket will be for
med which will be triumphantly sustained at
the polls.
"lndiana must be represented in that Con-
vention. We suppose State Convention to
be proper method of selecting delegates, and
of forming an electoral ticket. This course
hasheretofore been pursued satisfactorily to the
Party. 1t is incumbent, then, on the Wings
OF this State, to hold a State Convention
When shall it be? Some of our contempora-
ries have named next winter. We suppose it
to be the province of the State Central Com
mittee TO designate the time. We suggest,
for their consideration, the first day of the new
year. As the members of that committee live
remote from each other, and cannot, therefore.
conveniently have meeting, would it not be
well for each ofthem to write us line naming
the time, and we will give notice in accord
ance with the views of the majority! Early
attention to this matter is required, as, previ-
Gus to the assembling of the State Convention,
each county must appoint delegates

LOVERS. WHEN !.

When should lovers breathe their vows
When should ladies hear them
When the dew js.on the boughs,
When none else are near them;
When the moon shines cold and pale,
When the birds are sleeping,
When no voice is on the gale,
When the rose is, weeping
When the stars are blight on high,
Like hope in young Loves drealains,
And glancing round the light clouds ay,
Like soft tears to shade their beaming.
The fairest smiles are those that live
On the brow or starlight wTeathing;
And their lips the richest incense give
When the signs are at midnight breathin:
Oh. sofiest is the cheeks loYe-ray.
7 When seen by moonljght's hours; q
Other roses seek the day,
But bushes are night flowers.
Oh, when the moon and stars are bright,
When the dew-drops glisten,
Theu their VOWS should lovers plight,
Then should ladies listen.
