RATIFICATION.

The Democratic ratification meeting

Considering that il was an adjourned
meeting, and the efforts of the leaders to
get the people to come in, the crowd was
very small--though large enough, to have
the usual terms applied Dit. Of "large and

DR.. Lowry explained the objects Of the
meeting, in a speech of considerable length,
when committee was appointed to pre-
pare resolutions. While the committee
was absent Messrs. Henry and Wright ad.
dressed the meeting.
The committee reported the resolutions
adopted by the Baltimore Convention, and
Mr.. c. F. Jackson spoke.
The meeting was decidedly frigid. Mel.

doubt whether il was intended
ITO applaud the sentiment expressed,
Or the fact, that the speaker had ceased!!"
The speeches, we deemed, pretty good spec
linens of locofoco effort, and for the sake
of The speakers, regret that they were not
received in style of more encouragement
The feelings of the people, however, were
not with the sentiments spoken, and hence
the freezing air with which every thing
passed off.

GLASGOW NEws.-The news has been
considerably enlarged, and we hope will
receive corresponding enlargement Of
patronage. The Editor "let off" consid.
erably about his enlargement, for which
our contemporary of the Democrat" takes
him to task. We copy the remarks of the
" Democrat" and would at the same time
remark, that paper is the same size of the
" Times" but averages not quite as many
columns reading matter. Thus much for
ourselves, and now for the Democrats
" facts and figures:"-
But we must notice the error into which he
falls when he says. his paper now contains,
nearly halt page more reading matter, +"
than those Of his ueiehboring contemporaries -
The Capt makes terrible blunder in this cal.
culalion, which perhaps arises from his not being
a practical printer. The "reading matter" Of
The News, is mostly all loaded, which increases
the type in size 10 near that Of our own. Then
take page OF the News, and lay it down on a
page OF the Missouri Democrat, and it will be
seen that the widh OF our columns makes the
page /. columns wider than the News by their
column measure. Besides the enlarged News
contains only abou. 10. columns reading mat
ter" while our paper generally contains from II
to ID columns If this would give US abou, six
columns more " reading matter" than the News,
il would be difficult for the Captain 10 make il
appear--having the fear Of God before his eyes
that his paper contains nearly half page more
reading matter than ours. 1t is frequently the
cass that considerable portion OF our paper ap.
pears in type the same size Of the News,
We can look on with cheerlulnsss at the pros
pei,y OF the News; but The Editor in speaking
Of himself, should deal justly by his " nes hborng
contemporaries"
