President Van Buren,, Hon J. K. Giddngs, Senator
Chase of Ohio, Senator Sumner of Massachusetts,
would agree TO support. If the southern Democracy
are wiling to do they deserve TO be cheated, and
hope they may be cheated, and am certain they
will be cheated Some intriguing asplrants in the
South may be willing to sell hel, to attain their sell
fish and ambitious ends; but the masses q the south
ern people of both parties hope, will not be bam-
boozed by platforms and resolutions manufactured TO
order TO suit all purchasers and markets, by lrrespon
slble caucuses md huckstering ofce~seekers The
mere circumstance that some three or four hundred
professional political brokers assemble at Baltimore,
and baptze this or that they can make the best
trade with, the regularly nominated Democratic can
ddate, l think, will have little influence, IN 1892,
south OF Virginia If the Democracy OF Georgia,
Alabama, &c., are weak enough to herd in nation
a convention with Massachusetts and Vermont, &c.
-(Mr. Haett, OF Boston, says truly, Massachusetts
is cypher the next electlon, SO tar as the
Democratic party concerned)-lt the southern De-
mocracy consent to combine with States contessedly
tree-soll and Wing, and look to ocia pllnder more
than to principles and their own HONOR and allow
them to vote in such convention Democratic States,
they ought to be kicked and'cufed, End spat uIon-
for any candidate but Mr.. Webster, despite all the
exertons of his enemies and elsewhere, they know
very little about her or her peoples they will vote Tor
him against any other Union Wing or against any
Free-soll Wing. As there is no probability OF Mr..
Webster being the Democratic candidate, Nassachu-
sets has right to a seat in the Democratic Nation
al Convention. She will not bring any troops to
Troy"
Alter giving his opinion of the origin and source Of
the hoax and declaring his high esteem for Gen. ous
ton, whom he thinks it was to lnJure, Mr.. West
colt declares himself to he "a radical Democrat-o-
cof0co il you please. but says:
81 take occasion to say have no utilization WITH or
sympathy ior the conglomerated compound OF hete
rogeneous materials, Abolionsts, Free-soiers Fugi-
tive Slave Law repeaers, and Old Hunkers protesting
to be Union loving and law abiding, and SO FORTH
styled the New York Democracy. 1t is better
than that of Massachusetts and Ohio. l hope thew
wi get beat next month. The true Democrats, in this
State, deserve it for keeping bad company Thrashng
and starvation are the only remedies to restore them to
sound political health. III they would emulate Daniel
5. Dickinson, there wou Id be hope in Israel
AS it is, the case is desperate.
"And desire you TO say also to the Missouri Ban
ner that though am Locofoco hostile to a Federal
Bank and pretty much to all bankso the protective
tariff system, and indeed all tariff systems and in favor
OF free trade and direct taxation, though deny the
constituonality and eXpediency OF extending the e-
dera treasure raised by taxing the people, and in what
are called internal improvements and the improve

pretence of their heng national" Objects and though

manifest destiny by 'annexation,' till the whole of
This broad continent, and all the islands co ntiguous
thereto, in both oceans, become part OF the Federal
Union; and further il need be, of atherng John Bull
and the rest Of mankind into peaceful acqueseence
to The will OF God; yet, rather than vote for any
for President though he might profess Democracy,
whom the New York Barnburners could be coaxed or
bought to support, my suffrage would be cheerully
given to Henry Clay, John j. Crittenden or Daniel
Webster, or half dozen her good Wings could
name, with all their former Wing sins upon their heads

Shut my eyes
,Gans half the worth, and halt the virtue,
In this broad empire. ,"
These "conhdences' q Senator Westcot go very far
to subsantiate the opinion expressed few days
ago, that the Southern division of the Democratic par
ty and especially the Virginia branch OF Though
claiming most pharsaica amount of public virtue
and protesting overweenng share of devotion 10 Sou

the scramble for the national spols commenced, to,
coaesce, without other condition than share IN Off
