The WhIg Convention.

We give to-day the telegraphc reports from
time, during yesterday.
The most important incident that occurred
was the resolution of the Kentucky delegation
to abide by the decision of the Convention as to
the platform and Compromise. This is the
most decisive sarcasm on the Compromise it has
yet received. Kentucky is the border State.
She has a thousand miles of frontier on the
Ohio, all on the border of free States. Yet a
delegation of the Wing party of that State, the
predominant party, how here, after the dying
words of Mr.. CLAY, very cooly and promptly
throws overheard the last and most worthless
plank of the Comprehensive Fugitiye-slave
law And if Kentucky does not adhere to it,
what State can or will
The Kentucky Wings are wise men in their
generation. They are not going to risk the
success of their party-they are not going to
jeopardize the fifty millions a year of federal
expenditure, the patronage of fifty thousand
offices. the privilege of squandering the balance
of the public domain, for such an abstraction as
the Fugitive Slave law.
Now, true it u.s. that this Fugitive.slave law
has been extolled by all these Kentucky Wings
and Kentucky Democrats, and by all the South.
ern Submissionists, as the great equivalent for
territorial sacrifice and spoation, as the great
catapasm for Southern treachery, and Southern
dshonor. Yet now when they come to put a
practical value on it, when they come to compare
it with the chances of party success and federal
honors, why the very State most interested in il,
the very State the oudest in its praise, testifies
its real contempt for the thing, by making vol
untary offer of it to the North, to promote party
success.
After this, will it not look rather particularly
ridiculous for any Southern State to cant about
this thing? Can any Southern man keep his
countenance hereafter in attempting TO defend
theiGompromise Can any Northern party in
the North defend the Fugitive-slave Jaw, after
Kentucky has deserted it
Really the Compromises deserve commisser.
alton. Never before have folly and treachery
been visited with such speedy and signal expo
sure and disgrace.
For the rest this movement of Kentucky por.
tends the nomination of ScoTT-for it demon
allies the whole position of the Northern Wing
Compromises. t.
kentucky goes for the spoils--as she sees
all others do who go into these party move
ments And she is determined not to relin-
quish any chances for the sake of consistency,

mise.

nRACTICE in the Supreme Court of
IL United States, ana IN the Courts ofthe Dis
trict Of Columbia anu attend promptly to all
claims against the United States, or Foreign Gov
ernments.
Sir latter consulting many persons interested in
the principal Railroads in the United States, the
undersigned propose to establish agencies in this
city and in New York, for the purpose of collect
ing full and authentic Railroad statistics and
such other information will enable them to
persons desiring to invest in Railroad securities,
or to procure information ofany matters connected
with the construction and administration of Raj
Roads. They also propose, especially, to urge
upon Congress modification of the laws relat-
ing to contracts for carrying the mail, to au
thorize the Post Office Department to contract for
the perpetual use Of Rail. Roads, and, instead OF
paying, us now, quarterly on contracts for four
years, to advance in five per cent. bonds of the
United States, chargeable upon the revenues OF
the Post Office Departmental amount, the int,
rest upon which at 6 per cent. would equal II 2
payments now made.
The government now pays $500 per mile fer
carrying the mail on first class Railroads. y This
is per cent. on $1,000. The undersigned would
urge that instead of paying $500 mile, per an
mum, the Department should deliver, on acontract
perpetuity five 81 900 bonds, bearing an inte
rest of five per centum. At this rate the charge
upon the Department would be reduced from $500
to $3.50 mile, per annum, and the $50 per mile
saved would create sinking fund which will, in a
fewyears pay othe Bonds and give the use ofsuch
roads forever thereafter free Of all charge there
by effectng vast saving the present annual
expenditures of the Pc Office Department and
a consequent reduction of the rates Of postage.
The effect will be no less advanfHgeous to Rail
Road Companies than to the government. For
instance, such contract would givetto the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad Company more than
80, 900 900, which would enable that complete its
road at early day. and greatly increase its busi-
ness and profits.
But to meet objections and impress the public
mind with proper sense of the benefits to result
from this measure will require concert Of action
and continued active effort, through the press and
otherwise. The undersigned tender their services
to your Company, expecting reasonable COM
pensation, partly contingent upon the success OF
the measure; and respectfully suggest the pro-
priety of your sending one or more delegates to
this city, on the first Wednesday in December
next, to confer with delegates from other Rail-
Road Companies, as to the details of the propos-
ed arrangement and the best mode ofbringing the
subject before Congress. .....
Hoping to hear from you at your earliest con.
venience, we are, respectfully, your obi servt.
