From the Baltimore American
Democracy In Vermont.

The two winga Of Hunkcr and Barnburninp de.
mocracy have united in convention, In Vermont
upon the ultra bass Of the Wisconsin platform In
Connecticut the union Of the sections took place Ius
before the Congressional election, by which delnoc-
racy In that State has added an extreme abolitionis
10 its representatives in Congress-.
In ausion TO the combination now effected in
Vermont the New York Courier recapiuates the
similar movements in Wisconsin, Connected, New
York and elsewhere, and inmales that there Il now
doubt whatever of the fact that the CASTLES Van
Buenites and all other fragments originally forming
the body or skirts of the party which called itself
democratic, have come to an understanding to unite
upon the ultra ground of the Wisconsin platform
"At the end OF Two years, II not sooner" says the
Courier, 1--WE presume that in New York, Ohio
Pennsylvania, New England and the whole West
the Free Soil and .ocoloco parties will have become
one. They will unite upon common candidate for
the presidency in 1862, and will bring TO his support
most powerful vote"
Thisorganization ofa party upon sectional grounds
arraying one portion of the Union against another
will present the curious aspect of a party concen,
trated upon an issue which will have passed away.
Before two years are over, there Is every probability
that the question of slavery in the territories will be
settled Other adjuncs, brought together TO patch
up the platform Of the new democracy such as the
abolition Of all impos duties and resort TO direct
taxes for revenue together with the sb-treustry and
the doctrine of internal improvements 80 odios TO
the old democracy OF strict construction are kent
somewhat In the back ground as yet; but they must
constitute the real basis OF the organization so
far ms measures Of policy are concerned
How the southern portion Of the old party will fare
in this division of democratic assets we cannot under
take to conjecture. The name itself will be difficult
to divide. "The democracy" now claims TO be north
of Mason and Dixon's line. 1t affects cool climate
and is Of opinion that il cannot enjoy good health in
tobacco-growing country, or among rice fields and
cotton plantations. Having heretofore caught feycrs
and chills from the South very frequently so often
indeed that il got 10 have bilious look, with strong
tendency to lnundice, "ihe democracy now gives
up its southern determination and confines itself TO
local and neighborhood concerns.
In some portions Of the South, especially in the
ancient State of Virginia, the idea has prevailed the
same being alluly nculcated by editors and polili-
Clans that the supporters Of Van Buren,, Polk and
Cass in the Old Dominion constituted not only
portion Of "the democracy" but that they wers IN
TACT The chosen DICTIONARIES of that army the foremost
disciples of that school, II will distress many who
have given way TO this deusiln, TO discover sud
denly their extraordinary mistake. To some The ca
tastrophe may be serious.

A COOP u T. One Of the most common and one
Of the most grievoua complaints against Mi. Polk
was, that under his administration, the sixty ihon
sand offices OF the country were monopoliJed by
Locofocos, many Of whom were incompetent, many
Of whom were faithless, and many Of whom were
habtually guilty oil the most disgraceinl interference
in elections This complaint was loudly urged
throughout the whole Presidential canvass by the
supporters Of Gen. Taylor, and il was sustained by
the loud verdict OF the nation AT the polls
I And now because Gen. Taylor and his cabinet
have turned out about one in Two hundred Of those
who were in Office when his administration came
into power all the Polk organs thunder abroad their
denunciations against prescription" intolerance"
guillotines," axes" and scaping knives" and
invoke the people to ayenPe the blood Of the mar

they sit in the most retired, solitary. and

The lead from which "pencil points are
made, comes from the principal p!umbago mine
in the world at Barrowdale Cumberland, Eng

being worked constantly like other mines, is
opened only once year, when sufficient guam.
tiy is taken out to supply the world for year
to come when it is closed with strong doors,
bars and locks until the next annual supply is
requircd. From the iimd of Queen Elizabeth
