A Democratic President--Democ ratit
Plainness.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Tribune, writing under date of
August 23d, says-In walking along Penn
sylvania av., one Of the hottest days of the
season, my attention was drawn to mag
nificent carriage, standing by the sidewalk,
between Ninth and Tenth.sts. TWAS, GER
tainly, for beauty, richness, and uniform
appropriateness, one of the finest establish
ments l have seen, reminding one of the
splendid equipages of some of the British
nobility, which may be seen Of an afternoon
in Hyde Park. The horses were fine. large
bays, covered with harness heavily and
richly ornamented with silver. The doors
and panels were filled with heavy plate
glass deliberately cut, and the morocco Innings,
Turkey carpet, and rich silk tassels and
lappets, gave it an air of comfort and luxury
seldom met with in this practical age. The
driver and footman were white, clad in blue
livery, with gilt buttons. could not but
pity the poor fellows, of whom one was
standing at the door, waiting, as it appeared,
for some one who was shopping in the FASH
ionable shops to be found only in this por-
ton of the metropolis. This turnout being
SO much superior to anything have seen
in America, made me DESTROYS to notice it
the more particularly, and led me 10 inquire
respecting the owner of so rich an equipage,
and hating moment in the shade of one of
the elms on the sidewalk, saw il entered
by middle aged lady in black; the heavy
door closed without noise. and the footman,
encountered with his immense and heavy
cloth coat, assembled with difficulty TO the
elevated seat with the driver, and the pran
cling steeds were driven up Pennsylvania
avenue. In answer TO my enquiry of a by
stander as 10 the owner OF what | supposed
could only belong 10 some foreigner OF dis
tinction, was informed that the carriage be-
longed to President Pierce. The driver
and attendant were pale-iaced, thin-looking
fellows, who appeared as if swcated down
by their capacious but clOsebuttoned livery
coats, which could not have but been very
iDconvenient, with the mercury at so deg.
in the shade, and when most people were
clad in thinnest habliments, tanning them
selves as they promenaded the avenues OF
Washington.

declares party nominations have ceased TO

paid TO them," and that conventions have
served of late, to defeat the majority in

OF the Union is so Bentoniac, that our friend

panied, and calls the special attention Of
"the democracy" to its position. We feel
for our neighbor in this extremity, and can
only account for the Unions" position on
the ground that it had not carefully perused

recently been made on the Island Of Cuba
by lawless bands of adventures from the
United States, and with the avowed inten-
ton Of taking possession of the Island. -
To this reason Mr.. Everett replies in these
terms: "'fhe President is convinced that
the conclusion Of such treaty, instead Of
putting stop 10 these lawless proceedings,
would give new and powerful impulse 10
theni'
The Government of Great Britain nc
knowledges, with respect, the conduct Of
the President in disavowing and dlscoura-
ging the lawless attempts here referred to.
The character of these attempts, indeed,
was such as to excite the reprobation Of ev-
cry civilized State. The spectacle of bands
of men, collected together in reckless dis
regard Of treaties, for the purpose Of max.
ing. from the ports of the United States, a
piratical attack on the territory OF power
in amity with their own State, and when
there, endeavoripg, by armed invasion, TO
excite the obelient TO revolt, and the tran
quill to disturbance, was sight shocking. no
doubt, 10 the just and honest principles OF
the President. But the statement made by
the President that convention, duly signed
and legally ratified, engaging to respect the
present state of possession in all future
time, would but excite these bands OF pirates
to more violent breaches of oil the laws Of
honesty and good neigborhood, is melan-
choly avowal for the Chief Of a great
| State.
Without disputing its truth, her Males
ty's Government may express a hope that
this state Of things will not endure, and that
the citizens OF the United States, while
they justly boast of their institutions, will
not be insensible 10 the value of those eter-
nal laws of right and wrong, of peace and
friendship, and of duty TO our neighbors,
which ought to guide every christian ma
ton.
Nor can people so enlightened fail 10
perceive the utility of those rules for the
observance of international relations, which
for centuries have been known TO Europe
by the name Of the law of nations. Among
the commentators on that law, some Of the
most distinguished American citizens have
earned an enviable reputation: and it is diff
fcult to suppose that the United States
would set the example Of abrogating its
most sacred provisions.
Nor let it be said such convention
would have prevented the inhabitants o.
Cuba from asserting their independence
With regard to internal troubles. the pro.
pos ed convention was altogether SILENT
But a pretended declaration of indepen.
dence, with view of mmediate'y seeking
refuge from revolt on the part of the blacks
under the shelter of the United States
would justly he looked upon as the same If
effect as formal annexation.
Finally, while fully admitting the right
of the United States to reject the proposal
that was made by Lord Ma!metbury and
M. de Turgot, Great Britain must at once
renounce her liberty; and upon any pcca.
sion that may call for it,be free to act singly.
or in conjunction with other powers. as to
her may seem fit. am, &c.,
