O. The two Conventions, the Hunker
and Barnburner, so called, of New York,
met at Rome, on the 18th inst, to devise
means for uniting the two sections of the
Democratic party in the Empire State.
At the latest accounts they had not succeed
ed in fixing upon the terms of reunion,
and the prospect was not very flattering that
they would be able to reconcile the difficult
ties existing between them. Both conven-
tons were organized and committees of con-
ference appointed by each. The Barnburn-
ers adopted resolutions declaring that the
division in the party grew out of differ
ence of opinion on the slavery question, and
affirming the right of Congress to legislate
upon the subject of slavery in the territories,
and to abolish it in the District of Colum-
bia. If this be the atltamatum of the Barn.
burners, no union can be effected. The
Hunkers claim the right to think as they
please upon that subject, and are willing
to concede the same right to others. They
claim that all other questions shall not be
east aside and that be made the test of a
mans Democracy.

@ The Democrats have gained three
members of Congress in Tennessee, two in
Kentucky, and two in Indiana. This the
wings will set down as evidence of the in
creasing popularity of Gen. Taylor's admin
istration, and as proof positive that "the
Democratic party is dissoved" We would
not deprive them of this consolation.
