CONCORD, Thursday Feb %.
My DEAR tribune The magnifed shadow
of shade, the Hunker State Convention, cast
its image across the Capital" yesterday aud
came faithfully up to the orders of the shade,
the State Committed by decreeing the decapi
tstion Of another John the Baptist. 1t was so
Tenn, though not a particularly imposing show
and the political Herod, at whose command the
work has thus far been accomplished, had evi
IDENTITY less compunctions of conscience than had
the renowned Herod of olden time. HIS oath to
the dark beauty Of the South, who has so won
his affections with her winning and bewitching
glances, coupled with certain significant gestures
pointing toward the rice Presidency, is fulfilled
with cheerfulness and alacrity." But, happily
for the victim, the people are charged with the al
innate disposal of the matter; and instead of
presenting the charger with the head of John
thereon, it will, more likely, contain the bruised
head of old Hunkerism.
After tedious work Of drumming, drilling, and
squirting up the wavering and weak, the Cl'que
got together about two thirds of full Convention
which was addressed by Gen. Pierce, 'cho i0as
not member.
1t was voted to behesd Mr.. Atwood, upon which
Mr. Dissmoor was re nominated by vote OF 2O2
10 for Atwood. Mr. Atwoods friends purposely
abstained from any party in the show, denying
the right Of CliqueIsm to recOnstltute a deiuncs
body, that had long ago done its SPECIFIC work
They contend that there can be no proper action
through Convention in this msstor, az It is based
wholly upon a new issue, without fresh express
sion from the people, through neU Convention,
elected with especial reference to the new issue:
Those upacquainted with the influences and
various springs operated to discard Mr. A, and
make this new nomination, are, very likely, sup
posing our people are Harvesting themselves anew
70 the car of Hunkerism, to tug and pull there
Justify as ever, under the ready whip OF Clique
lam but let. me say to you, they VIII soon DC
undeceived. The work 1t so long shrunk from
and dreaded, being now accomplished ana the
" ay thus fairly opened. you will soon see such a
moving of the waters in counter direction,
as will set these matters forth IN their true
| light.
The political Samson of New Hampshire, hav-
| ing, under the morPhetic influence OF "coored
| beverages" dreamed dreams Of caZzlng riches
! and splendid power and place accrulng from

visions, find itself shorn of its locks, and power

fattened upon spos, till they are apoplectlc win

the truth will be OutspOken. The hearts OF the
Young men will throb and their voices Will ring

time and the occ aston will inspire aud animate the
