| MOVING OF THE WATERs.--lt has been already
announced in our columns says the Washing.
ton 'lntelligencer, that the democracy Of Yer
mont have named their Delegates at Largo to
the next National Convention of the party np-
pointed to be held at Charleston, for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates to bo supported
at the approaching Presidential election. The
democracy of Maine, at their recent State Con-
vention, have in like manner appointed their del
egates to represent them in that body. These
movements have naturally awakened Inquiry in
regard to the time when the Charleston Conven-
tion will be held, and to this point the Now
York journal Of Commerce replies as follows
% Two of the States have already chosen their
Delegates at Large to the Democratic National
Convention to be held at Charleston in the spring
of 1860. These are Vermont and Maine. 9th
ers will follow at no distant day, but &o pre-
sumo not usually until the occurrence Of their
Nominating Conventions in the ensuing autumn,
and, where the appointment is by districts, per-
haps generally at date Subsequent to the fall
elections. The time for holding the Convention
has not yet been fxed nor has the committee
held meeting for that purpose. We presume.
however, that the meeting of the committee will
take place at Washington during the first week
in December next, and that the Convention Will
be called to assemble at Charleston about the
last of April or first of Nay, ls60. This vii!
be full month earlier than the nominations
were made in 1856, but the climate OF Charles
ton will hardly admit CT the assembling Of a
lave body of men from all sections Of the Un-
ion at later date. Undesirable TO postpone the
as long as convenient, as the cam
nairn, even then, will be quite long enough to
wear out the contendiug parties"
