soided that the Legislature must convene at Fillmore
City, Notwithstanding the resolutions passed at the
Joint session in 1856 to meet at Salt Lake City The
legality of the proceedings of the last Legislature
are questioned from the fact that they are signed
only by Young, when Cumming was in the Territory
under the commission of the federal government and
had issued proclamation covering the period while
the Legislature Was in session, said approval by
Young being a usurpatOn of executive authority

But little thus far has been said cone erning the
next canvass in Tennessee. Democratic journals
have been very silenton the subject 1t is well nigh
time it was freely talked Of
believe it is generally agreed that Gov. HARRIS
is to make another race, and suppose all parties
will agree that he will be reelected.
In the Congressional districts there is seldom any
difficulty to encounter by multiplicity of aspirants.
Unless public sentiment points to some particular
man as the standard bearer, convention is easily
agreed on, and some good selection is made.
The canvass for the Legislature is not generally
so we'll managed. Full eight months are to elapSe
before the next election, yet in some counties and
districts more than one Democratic candidate is
already announced. If the usual custom prevails
we will soon hear of other counties and districts
being in the same dilemma-from two to half
dozen Democratic candidates soliciting the same
Office. To some persons this may seem to be all
right But my opinion is that it does our party as
much damage as could be done by half dozen
Know Nothing orators being turned loose in said
counties Whenever there is contest between
Democrats, i'll feelings are engendered between
those who would otherwise work in harmony and
spend their time in making war on a common enc
nv Many become lukewarm, some swap votes,
others become offended and vote with the oppOsi-
ton. and all together the damage is very serious
and ought by ell means to be avoided. The question
then recurs, how can this best be done By cons
ventions held early in the canvass, Now, my Dem
Ocratic friends do not flare up like mad cats and
declare that that viii not dos tbRtthere is no fair
ness in conventions, and that you won't adopt that
plan of settling the matter. I am free to admit
that have never known convention held by any
party when there was contest for nomination but

The Union and American devotes whole columns
to prove that there are people in.the North that
don't like slavery. This is all well enough when
one has nothing else to do, but however novel it
may be to the editor, it is no news to his readers

The Banners columns will furnish later news than
that. We learn from the editorials in that paper
that one, at least, of the Know Nothing organs at
the South desires to cooperate with these Adolf
tionists We learn that the Banner prefers the

tional Democracy.
