At the Confessional.

The Richmond Enquirer, in answer to the self
nterrogatory: "shall the anti-democratic States
override the democratic States at Charleston? ?"
makes disclosure of the tricks and ntrigues which
have for many years back, been resorted to by de-
mocratic leaders to control and transfer the rank
and file of the party from one man to another
Coming down to the present the article concludes as
follows:
"Present indications are unmistakable The
same Congressional causes which gave the cold
shoulder to James X. Polk, the same Congressional
caucus which insured Democratic defeat in 1856,
the same Congressional caucus which defeated the
nomination of Mr.. Buchanan in 1852, the same
Congressional caucus which warred on the Admin
istration of Franklin Pierce for three years, and
then Joined his friends only in order to defeat Mr..
Buchanan's nomination in 1885, tie same Con-
gressional caucus which organized an unprincped
opposition to the present Administration, which
menaced the President into the vacillating and
certain policy which has already resulted in such
disasters to the Democracy-this very same Con-
gressionul caucus affords nucleus for efforts
open and secret incidental and direct to defeat the
will of the majority at Charleston, by the adoption
of n platform, which, one of our Virginia cotem-
poraries assures us would drive off from the sup
port of the candidate of the Convention nne-tenths
of the Southern Democracy. Democratic minori-
ties at the North being packed, bribed and en-
ioed for the same purpose. All the elements which
have hitherto combined to defeat the viii of the
majority of the party are now carefully marshslleC
and consolidated. And, as we have shown, neither
the majority rule for the construction Of platform
nor the two-thrds rule for the selection Of a cand
date affords sufficient barrier against the invasion
of the principles of the party and the will of {
majority of its members.
as there, then, no barrier which can be erected
Is there no guaranty which can be afforded t
secure the rights Of the majority? Is there NJ
means by which to administer lasting rebuke Il
members of Congress who neglect the business o
constituents and ignore the interests Of their party
in dissipated devotion to the than question
able pastime of President-making Is there III
means to check the debauchery which operates L
demoralize and perpctuate democratic minorities il
the northern States? Is there no remedy whatso
ever for all these crying evils? Nous verrons.

B5- The democratic State Convention Of New

Of the rowdiest gatherings we have ever read Of
which purported TO be made up Of tnen 70 control
the political destinies of that great State. The
lizards were there, and so were the Softs and in their
midst were some of the most famous 'slloulder hit
ters' Of the city of New York. The proceedings
opened with wrangling and fraud which soon
brought on a fight between the harmonious"
Stryker, the temporary Chairman of one division,
was stricken down, whilst Cochrane roared and
Wood bellowcd-each striving to be heard above
the din of that disgusting political pandemonium.
The dear people ought to have been there to see how
their officers are selected and what sort of men rule
the honest masses through the agency of caucusscs
II would have been an instructive lesson and might
have taught them that GLORIOUS democracy" is but
to sancty the villany of Treasury plunderers
There were two Conventions in one room. Galvord
was Chairman ofthe Wood Convention, and Strykrr
Of the Albany Regency.

WHY THE WIGS SHOULD BEAT THE Democracy
The following are some of the potent reasons why
the conservative Opposition should hurl the Democ-

Congress, in Maryland;

of our manufactures and commerce, the gross cor
ruption charged by prominent members of the De-

little singular, then, that the same organ--should

the enemy of the South when the author of that
