FAsuoNsrLE CoycERT AT OH TANMASY-Tur
CONVENTION OF HARMONY The democratic con-
yention for harmonizfng the party, meets tonight
at Tammany Hall. II is their second appearance
on the old stage, for the present season. The per-
fornances for the first evening last week. were
merely Introductory to the very important tragedy
comedy, the case may be, which will be
enacted tonight under the powerful gas lights of
Tammany Hall and the antique cobwebs of Tam
many society. All the master spirits of the old
democracy, will be either 10 or outside the great
hall but The most Of them will be down below,
swinging their jugs Of beer, aud few Of the NOR,
entiqusied frolickng round the old Pewter Mug.
This convention Of the democracy, originating
in the ancient COUNCILS of the sachems is, however,
much more important in regard 10 future events
then those inexperienced in the philosophy OF poll
tics would seem to imagine. 1t is an attempt 10
unite the conflicting elements Of democracy in this
city and State, which have been separated and ag-
aicd for the last two three years, as they have
been throughout the whole Union. In fact, the
troubles in Tammany IIall-the disease which
ullcis the democracy in this Sa,e-is precisely the
same disease which agitates Congress, disturbs
every State legislature, conlyuses the Southern
States, and has produced such awful contentious.
not only among the old parties Of the North, but
smcng the religious conventions Of the day-,he
Baptsis, the Me,hodsts, the Presbyterians, both
OF the old and new school, with all the other
schools. The Holy Catholic Church alone has
escaped this epidemic. The slavery question has
acted like the cholera factions and parties, of
every hue, well as almos, every church. II has
touched the wing party on the most sensitive point,
and has broken down the old democracy.
The attempt TO bring about harmony in the ranks

Doctor Rynders, the famous medical man, who

at these artists three centuries back, what

the ground, in the damp, dark caves of
the East!

Closer observation showed a vein Of Chris

the natural flow Of a most happy temper;
whilst those who lived most continually
with him, could trace distinctly in his tem-
pered sorrows, and sustained an almost
child like gladness Of heart, the continual
presence of that "peace which the world
can neither give nor take away" The
pages of his later journal are full of bursts
of Joy and thankfuIness and with his
children, and his chosen friends, his full
heart swelled ever in the same blessed
strains lie seemed TOO happy not to ex-
press his happiness; his song was ever
of the loving Kindness Of the Lord" An

from which it was every moment expect

could exceed the business-like alacrity OF

who had attained one. In expectation Of
the event, piles of carpets, pillows, and
tcushions had been already brought from
the neighbouring houses, and placed wher-
ever room could be found, On those
comfortable seats the multitude had estab-
Iished themselves, the men in one part,
sedately smoking, the women in another,
now looking on and now playing with
their children. In moment refreshments
of all sorts were provided--sweetmeais::,
confectionery, and sherbet, by number
of rival purveyors, who advanced with
unalarmed alIcrity, amid the smoke and
falling sparks, plainly considering the
scene Of destruction a sort Of benefit got
up for their especial behoof, and uncere-
moniously elbowing to one side the po-
lice, who rushed, with pals of water on

A Strange DEVELOPMENT.

In reading the debates of the Senate
upon the Fugitive Slave Bill, we find the
following remarks of Mr.. Berrien Of
Georgia, and Mr.. Pratt Of Maryland.-
Mr.. Pratt said:
"Now, there is one fact which the
Senator (Mr. Berrien) has related to me,
which desire to mention to the Senate.
The honorable Senator, as | have under
stood from him, has collected upwards of
$500, 900 for a citizen Of the State of
Rhode Island, upon obligations given by
citizens of Georgia 10 Rhode Island for
negroes imported into Georgia.
Mr.. Bcrrien. Will the Senator allow
me? Unquestionaby the Senator is cor
rect in his statement. have stated TO
him that many years ago, in the exercise
Of my professional duty, had collected
large Notwithstanding near the amount
he states-in bonds or notes, which were
eft in my hands by citizens Of Rhode Is
land and which were given by citizens Of
South Carolina and Georgia. | stated
that to the Senator, but did not intend tina,
il should be introduced here.
Mr.. Pratt. | certainly understood the
Senator 10 state, at the time he told me of
the fact, that he himself wished to bring
it to the notice Of the Senate. At any
rate did not understand the Senator to
request that | should say nothing on the
subject. Does the Senator mean to say
that he told me this in confidence ?"
1t is but small matter whether the
Senator spoke in confidence or not. 1t
is to the TACT we wish TO call the attention
of our readers, particularly those of New
England, and especially Rhode Island.
What is this facll That one lawyer of
the State of Georgia has collected THREE
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR CITI-
ZEN OF RHODE ISLAND FOR NEGROES IN
PORTED INTO GEORGIA We do not sup
pose, much as we would like TO believe,
that i; is an isolated case. The Consti-
tuition for more than forty years has made
this importation Of negroes Piracy, and
yet in asecton Of country we hear most
said against slavery, we see that the great
est pecuniary rewards have been derived
from traffic in slaves. With such facts
staring US in the fare, and proclaimed aloud
from the Senate Chamber at Washingtoni
may not our zeal for The true welfare Of
slaves be questioned, and the taunt Of
hypocrisy be flung back upon US, as we
herald our own love of freedom and our
adherence ofoppression. The fact which
Mr.. Pratt has here drawn out is not a
new one TO many OF our readers, but it is
sad one, and one uhch we cite now not
only to deplore it, but for the sake Of say
| ing, in the name of n comftoh charity for
all men, tha! it ought 10 teach US TO have
a.Itlle fOrbearance with others. when, 10
say the least oft, we are no better than
we should be ourselves.-N. y Erpress.
