DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CON. (
VENTION.

A full meeting of the republican
members of both houses of Congress
was held Tonight IN the Capital. A
report from the Joint committee of both
houses, appointed at former meeting
was made recommending to the repub-
lican party to hotd tire national con-
ven,ion for the nomfiaatian of President
and Vice President, nj the usual ,ifne
and place viz: at Baltimore, on tire
4,h Monday in Mag. Motions were
successfully made to substitute Gin
cinnati as the place, anc The 4.h ofJuly
as the time Of meeting; boih of which
were rejected. And then the original
repor, Of the joint committee was unan-
imously adopted; and the meeting adj
journed at an early hour in the best
feeling and spirits. We avoid fur
Their details, because an official account
of the proceedings is directed TO be
published in the democratic papers.
1t begins to be time to organize the
party, and prepare for the approaching
campaign. We take II for granted
that the nominee Of the national con-
yention will meet with the undivided
support of the democratic party. Of
the result, we do not permit ourselves
to entertain doubt. We never enter
tanned a more confident conviction of
the success of the democratic candi-
date. We can not be defeated by any
man, or any combina'ion-by any CO.
alition or any casts of characters--let
the wing candidates be who they may
with discretion and energy, union of
council, and irmness OF principle on
the part Of the republicans Union.
