OLD TAMMANY.--In New York, on the 10Th,
the democratic convention had stormy meeting
at Tammany. 1t was called for the purpose of
hearing the report Of the committee to prepare a
plan Of union. The report aseribes the defeats and
disunion Of the party to the slavery question:
question that should never have been introduced at
all. They conclude that future harmony depends
upon an entire willingness to allow, every democrat
to entertain his own views on slavery, if he sup
ports the regular nominees Of the party. They say
slavery in the States is entirely under State CON
troll, but that free expression of opinion on the
right or propriety of slavery never can and never
should be suppressed; but there is wide differ
ence between the rational opinion of sober men
and that of the fanatics either of the North or the
South.
In conclusion, ii is recommended to leave slavery
in Territories to the people-that if Congress have
the power to legislate thereon, they ought not to
exercise it-that all new States should be forth
with admitted without restriction The meeting,
however, accomplished nothing an adjournment
took place at halfpast o'clock in the morning, for
want of quorum to continue the transaction Of
business.
