By the New York Times of Thursday we find
that the Socialists of the Empire City are wide
awake to the progress of the bill before Congress for
giving away the lands which belong to the United
States and nalenabe for any such purposes those
pretended by that bill The following paragraph of
the Times is quite significant of the designs and OBJ
jects of considerable portion of those who
deavoring to force that measure through Congress:
"THE LAND REFORM MEETISG.-The committee having
charge of the Park Gathering have given that they will
urge upon their constituents in the Senate the urgent
cessity of gping homes he ladess and should the
ther prove unpropitous this afternoon they will gather
at Tammany Hall. Hon. ANDREW JOHNSON, of Tennessee
the father of the present Homestead J, before the SEN
has from Washington 10 take part in the proceed
ings. JAMES I. BUCKLEY, ESQ., THEoDoRE E. ToMLNsoS,
JOHN VAN BuRES HORACE GREELEY, L. B. Shepard, and
other excellent speakers win address the meeting"
| The Committee of the Socialists seem to have
very confused notions of the constitution Of the SEN
ate of the United States. We should like to know
from what chapter of their book of /" National Re-
form" the distinguished gentlemen of that committee
have derived information that the Senator'S Of the
! United States are constituents" of theirs. We
have always understood that the constituents of the
Senate were the several States, who appoint them
through their respective Legislatures
But it will be very well for themselves, and for
the country too, if these Socialist gentlemen make
no ,corse mistakes than this.

We observe by Telegraphic note published in
some of our papers that doubt is thrown on the po-
ltca character of the delegate chosen in Worcester
district, Massachusetts,, to the Wing National Con-
vention. We therefore give the reported remarks
of the delegate, (Hon. IRA W. BARToN,) delivered
before the District Convention after his appoint
ment
Judge BARTON addressed the Convention. He alluded
to previous campaigns of the Wing party and said that in
his opinion the contest would show that the United
States still Whig He also paid eloquent tribute
to the worth and genius of Mr. Webster OF his deeds
the Cabinet he spoke in terms Of unqualified praise aud
ing to the important treaties he had negotiated and said
he believed that, in great measure his eminent states
manshp had preserved the peace Of the country He
We'd not him who would seek to defame the character Of
that great man. He should vote for the who would
command the largest vote In conclusion he hoped that
whoever was nominated he would receive the unanimous
support Of the Wings Of the Fifth District"

to the colonies of regiments standards surmCunted
by the Imperial eagle. In his address to the army
he said that the Roman eagle adopted by the En-
peror Napoleon was the last striking emblem of the
regeneration and grandeur of France; and having
disappeared with her misfortunes it ought to return
when France has recovered from her defeats, and,
being mistress of herself seems no longer to repu-
date her own glory. Resume, them soldiers, these

On examination, Mr.. Chairman it will be seen that
these the Georgia words inserted forced on the In

If the first resolution was sufficient? The first resolution
evaded the fugitive law That for the benefit Of the

Thus then, the coalition platform built up But

by Union Democrat from Georgia, Mr.. HLLYER.)
First, let state the record will show that many
of the Secessonsts voted for the coalition platform.
Those who in voted together for Speaker to-
gether voted for the compromises of the constitution
for jury trial, and against it; some for the
fugitive slave law, and for its repeal but all for
the compromises of the constitution understood by
Haet and others in Massachusetts, and by the Seces-
