The ORDER OF THE LONE STAR.-According to
the New York Courier, there are fifty divisions of
the Order of the Lone Star in the United States,
the object of which association is to revolutonize
Cuba and annex it to the United States. Each
member must pay at least three dollars for his
initiation, five dollars for the second degree and
FIVE dollars for the third, besides four shillings
monthly dues. The funds are in the hands Of a
grand council, with liberty to dispose of them
Philadelphia Ledger.
neg If this is true, the evil should be checked.
The emancipation of Cuba By the Cu6ans, with
such aid as they may obtain, will all be very well;
but secret political societies in the United States
are Objectionable. If the principle of secret or
CARNATIONS is to be thus abused, it should be
abandoned. We hold fraternity with venerable
Order, but rather than see evil practices arise
under such cloak, we would prefer the dissolu-
ton of oil such organizations
Mr. DONALDSON, in his letter to Mr.. Greer, gave
the following advice:
"Partly reafirm the Baltimore platform avith-
out offending our .tree-soI alies-who have pledged
themselves in good faith to us-as their vote viu
be most formidable, you may depend upon it, and
.oe can afford to make fen sacrifices Of the South
where so irascible disposition is shown" And,
again: evan Buren, and Croswells influence Sc
cures New York, and their friends everywhere.
Chase and Giddings may be relied upon to the
utmost"
This advice forms the Democratic programme
of the campaign.

Mr.. Dunno, but six votes in the affirmative
arc.
The PREsrDEsr-The gentlemen who contest
the seats have not voted?
M. DUKE-No. sir.
Dir. Ewing Of Pennsylvania, said that after the
announcement of the vote BY the Chair, the objec-
tion GENE too late.
Mr. DUKE-T made the objection at the time.
The President said the change of the six votes
as proposed, would not alter the result.
Mr.. DICKINSON made a few remarks saying that
the Delegates had come hther with certificates.
The President replied, they are entitled to
seats until the Committee on Credentials report.
Applause.)
Mr. MORGAN. as a member Of the Committee on
Credentials, said he wanted nothing but Justice
melted out, and everybody to have equal rights.
The PRESIDENT said all the difficulty might be
avoided if the six contested votes are not counted
it would not change the result.
Mr. DUKE-i ask how it would be fthe six votes
are stricken out on one side and placed on the
other. This gave rise to much merriment, which
was long contnued.)
br. EWING, Of Kentucky, proposed to amend
the resolution under consideration as follows:
Reslred That the Committee be constituted Of one
Delegate from each State, selected by the Delegates
from each State.
He said it differed from the original resolution,
in that it made no reference to the Chairman to be
appointed; he looked upon this as the most i'm
portant vote to be taken, if we could vote through
our representatives in Committee, as we vote by
Districts; the vast and overwhelming strength OF
Pennsylvania, Newly ork and Ohio might in SEINE
measue be counteracted but it is a species of ty-
rsnny to allow a base majority to cast the thirty
five votes Of New-Ysrk, and the twenty-seven OF
Pannsylvania on one side or the other, thus over
whelming half dozen other States unanimous in
their sentiments.
Mr.. DICKINSON, Of New York, said the amend
ment of MIR. JEssUP involved the important ques-
ton, and by adopting it, every Delegate has
weight he trusted the amendment Of MIR. EWING
would be voted down.
Mr.. MORTON, Of Fa., said there could be no
harmonious action until the Committee on Creden-
tias shall make their report, and the Convention act
upon it, for the purpose Of giving the Committee
time for elaboration. lie moved that the Conven-
ton adjourn until tomorrow at ii o'clock.
The motion was negatived, and then, at
o'clock, an adjournment until elk o'clock took
place.
