NOminatiny COnventiOns.

1t will be seen by the notice of the DEM
ocratic Ex. Committee, published in to-day's
paper, that Tuesday evening, the 29th day
of August, 1854, has been agreed upon as
the time for the Democrats of the several
townships in the county, to choose their del
egates for the County and Congressional
nominating Conventions. The first of these
is to be held at Ravenna on Saturday the I'd
day, and the last on Friday the 9th day OF
September next.
1t is desirable that each township should
have its full representations. To accom-.
plish this, we hope they will see to it, that
their delegates are duly appointed, and we
hope further, that the delegates thus appoint
ed, will be sure to attend the conventions.
The Democrats of the county, SO far as
we can learn, are thoroughly united, and ev-
cry thing bids fair for harmonious nomina-
tion, and a successful election. Let homes
ty and capacity be the first qualities looked
for in a candidate. We nave as yet heard
no mans name mentioned in connection
with any Office, but who is competent to FL
lhe place with honor to himselfa and satisfac.
tion to the people. Let Democrats continue
10 be united as they now are,-let each mar
come up to the convention determined to la.
Dor for the harmony and success of the party
and victory is certain to be ours on the sec
.ond Tuesday Of October. .......

Saratoga Convention.

A Convention was recently held at Sara
toga, N. Y for the purpose of nominating an
anti-Nebraska ticket, which illustrates the
folly of any attempt at uniting so many dis
cordant materials in the same party. Horace
Greeley figured as principal manager. The
Convention was characterized by Confusion
worse confounded" from beginning to end.
1t finally adjourned without making any
nominations, or even passing any resolu-
tions either against the Nebraska bill, or the
Fugitive Slave law. Three or four political
gamblers attempted to manage the whole af.
fair. This, of course, excited the jealousy
Of other aspirants, and hence the confusion
They will try it again, sometime in Septem
Der. We give few extracts from New York
papers. The Troy Times says:
at will be seen that Weed & Co., carried
their points in exery thing. No nominations
were made; the resolutions adopted do not
take ground in favor of the repeal ofthe Me-
braska law, nor of the Fugitive slave law;
but express the sentiments of the people
uSRtCcSiouS VI SldfG pOWcTi
and their determination to resist its further
encroachments. Abolition resolutions in fa-
vor ofmaking nominations, for the repeal of
the Nebraska Act and the Fugitive Slave
Law, the abolition of slavery in the District
of Columbia, &C., were laid on the table, or
not considered at all. Fowlers Know
Nothing resolutions met the same fate.
The Troy Wing says:
"The word 'go' once given, a scramble
took place in violation of all rule, under
standing and sense. 1t was miscelane-
Gus pitching into one another,-sometimes
in good part, and then again with much feel
ing and sometimes with harshness.
The New York Sun says:
"This convention resulted just as we pre-.
dicted itwould. The wire pulling politicians
played their game well, and had everything
their own way. 1t was game Of false pre-.
tences."
Mr.. GLIB, of Washington, one Of the lead.
ing members of the Convention, thus briefly
characterized it:

GiddingS Nominated.

Giddings has been nominated by the Fu-
sionists for Congress in the district compo.
sed of Ashtabula, Trumbul and Mahoning
counties. Two years ago, the leading
Wings of that district were desirous of form.
ing coalition with the Democrats, for the
purpose of defeating him. Wonder what
they think of the matter now? We suppose
their views have changed, since DUMARs
sold himself and the wings of Trumbull over
to the abolitionists. For over fifteen years
at every election, Mr. GIDD1NGs has succeed
ed in making the people of his district be-
lieve that a terrible crisis" had arisen, and
nothing but his all-powerful arm could save
the country. He has preached the same
sermon over again and with like success, so
far as nomination is concerned. He has
shown himself by his course in Congress to
be man devoid of all politicaI honesty. He
has lost all influence at Washington, and is
therefore fit standard bearer of the pie
bald party which has nominated him.
We suppose the programme will be chan
ged in this district for the sake of variety,
and the free soilers sold over to the wings.
This, however, will depend entirely upon
the kind of bargain that can be made be-
tween the numerous congressional aspi-
rants" on the day of nomination.

The CRoPs IN EURoPE.-The London cor
respondent of the New York Commercial
Advertiser writes under date Of July 2lst, as
follows laI4 -s rsd p. esH .-."
"The fine weather which set in last week, F.,
after long period of rain, has continued
without interruption, and the statements
from all quarters as to the appearance of
wheat, and the rapidity with which it is RI
pening, are such as to create the most san
guine expectations. Should no unfavorable
change occur, the season will unquestionably
be one of the most abundant ever known
but, even admitting the possible return oi
bad weather, the growth and condition al
ready attained are such that some practical
persons assert we are certain, under any con-
ceivable circumstances, of return twice as
great as that of last year. sa'''. ''..'.
"When, in connection with these reports,
it is also stated that there is prospect this
season, for the first time in seven years, OF
the potatoe crop being preserved both in
Great Britain and ireland, it will be under
stood that the anticipation respecting the fu-
ture cheapness of food in this country must
be of the most encouraging kind. From the
continent likewise, the nforma tion on the
subject continues to be highly satisfactory
although, in the wine-growing countries, es.
pecially France and Portugal, severe dis
tresses seem likely to be experienced from
an intense re-appearance of the grape
blight"

THE RELIGIOUS TEST IN THE PH1LADEL.
pHrA ScHooLs.-We last week gave tele-
graphic dispatch to the effect, that number
of reputable female teachers in Philadelphia
had been deprived of their situations, on ac-
count of their religion. In the Ledger we
find the following, which makes this "per-
secution for conscience sake,'" worse than
we supposed "
Teachers, who have been declared CON-
petent by their proper examiners, and who
have proved themselves capable by years of
experience in the performance of their du.

they had faith enough in their religion to rest
their hopes of future salvation upon it, they
have been deprived of their present means

and the grain is nearly all stacked. The
crop just secured is large one, and not as
much as has been lost by bad v Gather and

time since there would be.-Beloit Journal.

Repeal Ofthe Nebraska Bill ab9M-
dOned by the AbOIitiOMiStS.


We invite the special attention of our read
ers, to the following article from the New
York Evening Post, one of the leading an
ti.Nebraska journals Of the Union. No pa
per has done more towards raising the issue
of repeal-no one given stronger support to
Anti-Nebraska, disunion movements. But
a change come over "the spirit fits dream. u
! Its Editor has seen his error and is honest
enough to acknowledge it. He now comes
out frankly, and acknowledges his cause tc
be unsound, and this issue of "Repeal' en-
tirely "impractible." The Post remarks as
follows:
ait has been extensively proposed to re.
store the Missouri Compromise-to repeaI
the repeal.
"Let us see what prospect there is that this
can be done. A House of Representative:
could probably be elected, decided MAORI
ty of which would vote for the restoration;
but II would require many years to effect a
sufficient change in the Senate to get the
measure through that body. AS, therefore,
1t would be sure of defeat in the Senate, it
seems hardly worth while to discuss its
chances OF an Executive veto, for it would
never reach the Executive.
sit, then, advisable to 60 for measure
which has no possibility Of success! Should
we not lose the confidence of the people in
this practical, hard-working age, by wasting
our time and theirs in advocating move
ment Uhich Is absolutely certain to bedefeated
and the certain defeat of which must be ap

Of accomplishing the restoration of the Mis-
souri, Compromise will render impotent eve
ry political organization which may be at
tempted on that basis. 1t is clearly our opin
ion, therefore, that 1t is utterly useless ant
idle to make this The issue"
We hope our Fusion friends will read tn,
above article attentvely. What do yo,
think oft, gentlemen! You have beon toll
repeatedly by democratic presses, that there
was nothing practical BILE or tangible in thu
issue which you are trying to force upon th'
people, and for telling you plain truth, 20,
have abused them. Here it is in your our,

The Cleveland Herald in favor OF
the Fugitive Slave Law.

The following is an article which we copy
from the Cleveland Herald, formerly Wing,
but now leading Fusion paper. We COM
mend it to the consideration of our Free Soil
and Fusion friends:
"There was some excuse for the passage
OF the Fugitive Slave Law. As our United
States Supreme Court have construed the
constitution, power to pass a law for the
capture Of slaves in the different States, Is
Vested in Congress: in obedience to that de-
cision we boc, although, if the question was
an original one, we should embrace the
Webster doctrine. We also recognize the
right Of property in slaves, hence the right to
recapture them follows. In view Of this state
Of facts, no sensible man can say that the
STAKEHOLDER should be without law to assist
him in holding his property, and therefore
there was an excuse for the passage of the
Fugitive Slave Law" ..... r
Were Democratic editor to write such
an article as that, hundred Fusion papers
would denounce him as traitor and tyrant
We begin now to see why that pure liberty
loving convention at Columbus, were sc
careful not to say anything about the Fugi'
tive Slave Law in their platform. They
would be shorn of half their strength if they
did; and hence it became necessary to adopt
vague and uncertain resolutions, which mean
everything or nothing, just as suited the com
plexion of those who were to stand by them
How do our Wing and Free Soil friends like
each others society! Of course you are al
perfectly satisfied where such oneness ant
harmony prevail!
Will the "Democrat" tell US whether op
position to the Fugitive Slaye Law is ties
of Fusion orthodoxy! ...... ......
