New-York daily tribune., 1858-10-14

out the support Of the Republicans lie cannot be-
chosen, but Democrat may be elected.
Events seem Ia favor Mr.. Burlingame He has
obtained the nomination Of his party without much
opposition and within a few DAYS an American
Convention Las been called 10 put a candidate in
nomination. OF course, Col. Heard will no; get
out of the way to accommodate an American, and
with the opposition divided, Mr. Burlingame
| would seem TO be sure of success.
The most gratifying event oi the season j. the
! nomination of Charles Francis Adams for Congress
in District No. III. Never has there been spon-
tanecus movement of the people in that re- zion
since Horace Mann was elected against the ma
chInery OF the old Wing party, after his controversy
with Mr.. Webster. Mr.. Adams had two-thiras of
the votes on an informal ballot and if formal bal
! lot had been taken would have received all but
about dozen or fifteen. II Is we'll known, and
| has indeed been il matter OF complaint among his
/ friends that Mr.. Adams would not make any effort
! and would not encourage his friends to make any
effort in his behalf. The nomination was rendered
10 him because be was the fttest man to receive it.
1t WAS tribute to his great ability and unbending
integrity, and evidence, besides. that the great
! name which he so well represents j. still held in
| honorable remembrance BY the people of the dis
! trict. presume there Will BE- ntrigues of various
kinds set foot by small and malignant politicians
TO defeat Mr.. Adams, but have no idea that thcy
can be successful. The vote of the district last

! Beach, 3.l3l. Banks over Gardner, 955; Banks
over Beach, 1913.
! Mr. Thayer has got nominated in the Worcester
I District though not until after he or hs friends,
| together with The Horcsstsr Spy and other news
papers favorable 10 him, had assured the Republi.
cans that he still stood firmly by the principles and
| policy of the party, including Congressional pro-
| hibtion of Slavery, aud that his advocacy of the
| squatter sovereignty humbug. was only sort OF
| supplement and appendix 10 his main doctrine.
| Mr. Thayer assured the Republicans that he should
vote for prohibition whenever an opportunity Of
fered and one of his friends assured the Caucus in
| the city of Worcester. that lie had said h. would
not vote for the admission of any more Slave States.
| This satisfied the delegates, and they gave him
unanimous nomination. As might have been
| pected however Mr.. Thayer, after he had got the
| nomination, came into the Convention and told the
delegates that he had not changed his views, but
still adhered to his speech made at the State Con
| vention The Republicans would have pursued
safer course if they had nominated Of their true
| men, and left Mr.. Thayer at liberty to undertake
his new contract with the American Missionary
Association, to Christianize the world on joint
stock principles. 1t is Il great pity so universal
genius should be- pent up IN Congress for two years
more, while Naples and Rome to say nothing of
Nubia and Abyssnia are waiting t. be brought
into gospel light by the President aud Directors of
the Patent Self.Actng, World-Eyangelizing, Emil
grafton Company.
Charles r. Train Of birmingham is the Repubi
can candidate in the With District to succeed
Mr.. Knapp. The contest was between Mr.. Train
and Ex-Governor Boutwell,. The sentiment of The
district was in favor of the latter, but the friends
of the former were more active in the preliminary
| meetings and in the Convention. BY this result,
the Republicans in Congress lose the services OF
| the best legislative debater and taccian have
| in the State. Mr.. Train is a capital young lawyer,
and personally popular. He will be chosen by
| large majority over b. I. Butler, his Democratic
| opponent. ,,.
| In the With District, not only the Republicans,
| but the Democrats 6re i'll trouble. The contest
| between Dr. Loring and Mr. Nesseryey, both OF
Salem resulted in the victory of the former. Both
candidates came into the Convention, and came
near having personal quarrel with each other.
Messervey intimhted that Loring was not over
modest i'll coming there TO advance hls own for
tunes and Loring retOIted in similar style. Both
were justified by the facts of the case. Messeryey
certainly made the best appearances, for Lorlng
afforded the prettiest picture OF base-innded
demagogue that ! have yet seen III any county IN
the State. Some dispute having arisen which re-
quired the producing of the official vote at the cleo
ton of 1867, Loring appealed to the Convention to
disregard the returns of " Black RcpubHcan Sc
| lectmen," where they confcted with the asser-
tions of the " honest Democrats on that iOOr! :"
| As said. Loring obtained the nomination. 1t Is
| now said that Messeryeys friends are preparing to
| run him as an independent Douglas, Antl-Lecomp-
| ton Democrat. An anonymous call has also ap-
peared asking the Americans and all other persons
! dissatisfied with the present nominations to meet
| in convention i'll Salem on the 18TH. This conven-
| tion will include the friends of Messerey and of
| Timothy Davis; but do not see hOw they can act
| in harmony together. There il Yet nothing IN the
movement which endangers Mr.. Alleys success,
! though il is impossible To tell what may turn
| up" The Messervey movement alone do not re-
| gard as of any great importance, and think, IN
case il becomes formidable, DR.. Lorlng may Saleiy
| be trusted to take care of II.
The nomination OF Henry l.. Dawes in the Berk-
shire District completes the Republican Lst with
the exception, before noticed, Of the lNth District
! The Convention which nominated Mr. Dawes
adopted strong resolution against the "monstros'
ity" of popular sovereignty, and aslnar resolution
might have been passed without serious opposition
| in every District in the State, except the lAth.
| Prof Joel Parker of Cambridge received twenty
| five or thirty votes in the Convention which nom-
mated Mr.. BurHngame. The Professor showed
taste or talent for politics in 1c56, and as he Is
about TO resign his proiessorshp, It IS not unlikely
that he means to enter political life. lie Is already
talked Of for the State Senate, where he would be
useful next Winter in explaining the Revised Code.
! Of which he has been of the trainers. and
which will come before the Legislature OF lc5o for
adoption.
The eight mutneers and murderers of the whale
shin Junior are soon 10 be tried. believe i was
of the ring-eader of this gang that Mr. Cboate said
the other day most significant thing. What
said he, reply 10 statement as TO the desperate
condition OF tie fellow. Hands dripping WIN
blood And no money, He's lost man 1t
is very evident that these pirates of the Junior are
looked upon by all persons connected with the
| United States Courts as holding very different
position from that held by Capt. Townsend OF the
Echo, and that the possession of money and friends
