1t has been stated and generally believed tina,
the two-thirds rule was first adopted by the Balti
more Convention in 1914 for the express purpose
of defeating Mr.. Van Buren,. The correspondent
of the Washington Telegraph pronounces this
statement erroneous and gives the origin and his
tory of the two thirds rule as follows:
The candidates for President and Vice President of the
Democratic party were formerly nominated by a Con-
gressonal caucus of Democratic members These Congress
siona caucuses having become unpopular Democratic
National Convention for the nomination of and
Vice President assembled for the first time at Baltimore
in May 1882. 1t after Mr. Van Burens rejection as
Minister to England by the Senate of the United States
There strong feeling with the Democratic party in
New York in favor OF his omnation Vice President
with General Jackson for President 1t also under
stood that Gen jackson favorablet Mr. Van Burens
nomination, which gave him great strength with the
party throughout the Union The delegation from New
York composed of the Hon. Silas Wright and other
leading and prominent of the party The National
Convention assembled On casting about it was soon as
cerained that General Jackson the unanimous choice
for President THAT there but little oppositionto Mr.
Van Buren, FIR Vice President. In this state of things
and with the full knowledge that Mr. Van Buren, could
command much than thirds of the votes for the
convention Mr. Wright suggested to his colleagues that
proposition should be made to the convention that it
should require two thirds make nomination for Presi
dent and Vice President. This was done by way ofsho
lug the bcrality and magnaniInty of Mr. Van Burens
friendsnaney. that they did not wish him nominated
unless he could demonstrate, by a two thirds vote the
strong hold he had upon the feelings and confidence
OF the party The two thirds rule accordingly a1op
ted on the suggestion of the Hon Silas Wright with the
appreciation of his colleagues all being prominent friends
ofMr Van Buren,, and Mr. Wright considered standing
at the head of the delegation. General Jackson was
unanimously nominated for President and Mr.. Van Blu
ren with much unanimity for Vice President.
The writer proceeds to show that the two
thirds rule was adopted by the Baltimore Con-
vention in 1876 and in $780, and was applied on
both occasions t. the selection of candidates for
President and Vice President.

A NEW TICKET.

The Charleston Mercury remarks that if Buch-
anan and Douglas could be agreed upon as the
Democratic candidates for President and Vice
President. the Wings could not make respecta-
BILE show in opposition. The Enquirer says that
1t has received letter from one of the most intel
hgent citizens in Virginia-who formerly most
credltably represented the State in Congress-re-
commenting the same ticket. He is for Buchan-
an as President and for Douglas as Vice Presi-
dent-tor "giving both offices to good and true
free State men. The South has lost all she ever
did lose by eecting siare State Presidents. Iwant
totry the Free States. Buchanan is able and expe-
rienced, and | think, sound upon all practical
questions. The great State of Pennsylvania has
overwhelming claims upon party, and ought
to have at least of her sons run for the Presi-
dency. The Westalso has its claims. Douglas is
young, talented and reliable. At his age, and
with so many great and deserving men on our
side before the peol lie, certainly the Vice Presi-
dency. at his time of life, is high station"
1t remains to be seen how the Young giant will
reishthis suggestion that he shall play second fid-
die to his antique rival He must prove false to
the traditions ofthe Douglas name ere he ac-
ceeds to such terms as here proposed. And
what say the rampant sons of Young America ~
the followers Of the "Bloody Heart" to this Goa
ltlon Are they prepared to abandon their ia
vourite, and, to the language of one of their
number,) ''hod the bottle to the lips of second
childhood"

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
MAYORS COURT

negro woman, charged with stealing severai
skirts from white man named StubbsEo norr.
fellow caught in the act of stealing wood from one
Oh the yards on the Basin, and a negro woman
charged with usuing abusive and nsolent lam
guage towards Mrs. Meshurer, a white woman.
residing near the Old Market-were brouubt be-
fore the Mayor yesterday. The charges against
the culprits were fully made out and all three
were sent below for "condign."
LIZ Something like an interrugnum would exist
IN our city Government at present, were it not for
the wise provision in the present charter confirm
Ing In office until their successors shall be quail
fed, those elected last year.
The gentlemen chosen at the election held nm
wednesday to serve as Councilman and Aldermen
met In the Chamberlain's office on Thursday, and
again yesterday, for the purpose of qualifying, but
the ofhclal returns from Monroe Ward came I'D
missing on both occasions; so the newlv-elected
Councilman and Aldermen have not vet taken the
oath of office. They meet again TODAY. when If
is hoped they may be able to organize.
The result of the recent election has fullv de-.
monstrated the necessity either dividing Monroe
ward OF OF -districting the city, Taking the
vote tor Superintendent of the Water Works. as q
fair criterion of the strength of each Ward, we
lind the result to be as follows:
Jefferson Ward 40,
Madison Ward Aos
Monroe Ward eaO
linus 1t appears that whilst Monroe Ward polled
nearly double as many votes as either of the other
Wards yet her representative strength in the
Council and on the Bench is greater than either
OF the others. The ".Sirtecnh Man" was den;ed
her last year and we presume she will share tho
same tate again to-day The basis ofrepresentation
having been settled for all time to come, we sup-
pose, by the late State Convention, Monroe Ward
has, according to that basis, a title clear and in
disputable, to double the number of representa-
tives now allotted to her.
