columns, il win be seen that Colonel Dix repub-
fishes his notice that excursion parties viii not be
| allowed 10 land Lest this may appear captious

well to mention some Of the evils attending such
parties, for which there are no corresponding add
vantages. The boat Is usually chartered at high
price, TO cover which and 70 advance the comfort Of
the party they ecu their own provisions and liquor,
TO the disadvantage Of the house.
Then again they m9nopolize the bath houses,
tenpin alleys, oftsntimes the ball ROOM and nearly
every portion Of the premises to the discomfort Of
the guests, who are, to large extent, composed
Of families who need quiet and order No rioting
or rowdyism Is known TO have taken place for sew
srd years. but In such an event, with no police on
the Point, any one can readily see how much the
credit of the place would suffer. ht

kind Of excursion, can be accommodated by the
steamers Columbia and Alice Price, which make
three trips per week, and the Express Of Balti-
more, which makes one.

In Saturdays issue of the Star appears an arti-
Gle over the caption Of "The Mockery." "The
recent old line Wing State Convention, for Mary
land, was simply gathering Of Know Nothing
ISM endowed with plentiful allowance of check,

The above paragraph is unqualifedly false from
Alpha to Omega. defy the veracious Hero Of
Matsgorda" to point out by name single Know
Nothing delegate who attended the late Wing
Convention in Baltimore. It was emphatically an
old line Clay Wing Convention, solely and e1clu-
sively composed Of true Wings, representing Zone
exception) every county in the State. Mr.. Thorn.
as, of Baltimore, one of the delegates, fold line
Whig,) was the competitor of Mayor Kinks for the
Msyoralty at the last municipal election.
These delegates (since the origin of Know
Nottingham have acted and voted with the self
styled Democratic party versus American party,
never renouncing their allegiance and adherence
to the me-honored principles of the old line
Wing party, with which they were identified
| Therefore, the Convention, per Sc was nothing
more or less than an old line Wing Convention.
Its officers were old line Wings. They passed a
series Of resolutions reayming their doctrines Of
the old Wing party, enthusiastically and u,aani-
nousiy endorsing the American nominees, Fill
more and Donelson, men Of conservative, national,
Union-loving antecedents, fully entitled to the
support of all parties, and, if elected would emf.
ncnty restore the whole country to it's wonted Sc
curity serenity, tranquility, and prosperity.
Yours, &C.,
An OLD LINE CLAY WHIG.
