NEW York, Aug. 4.-The N. Y. Democratic
State Committee met at Albany Yesterday and
unanimously adopted resolution requesting
the Democracy of each assembly district to APP
point one delegate from each district to State
Convention to be held at Syracuse on the l4th
September next, for the nomination of State
officers and the choice Of delegates to the
Charleston Convention or to determine the
manner in which and the time when said dele
gates shall be chosen.
The N. Y. Herald of this morning publishes
n letter represented to be written by Governor
Wise to a distinguished friend of his in this
State, in which he says:
have aPprchended all along that the Tam
many regency would carry united delegation
from New York to Charleston, for whom Doug
las know is confident, but you may rely on it
that Mr.. Buchanan is himself candidate for re-
nomination and all his patronage aud power will
be used to diSappoint Douglas and all other as
ptrants. Our only chance is to organize by dis.
tricts and either whip the enemy or send two
delegations. If that is done or not DONE we
must still rely on united south. Virginia at
least will be u unit and persistent and firm on
sound platform of protection 10 all persons of
popular" versus "sqnatter" sovereignty. Size
must rally to her support all the south.
The South cannot adopt Mr.. Douglass plat
form. 1t is a short cut to all the ends of Black
Republicanism. He then will kick up his heels;
If he does or don't he can't be nominated and
the main argument against his nomination is
that he can't be elected if nominated If he
runs us an independents candidate and Seward
runs, and am nominated at Charleston, can
beat them both; or if sQuatter sovereignty is n
plank of the platform ut Charleston and Doug
las is nominated, the South will run an indie
pendent candidate protection principles and
run the election into the House. Where then
would SIr. Douglas be? The lowest candidate
on the list. II have the popular strength you
suppose it will itself fix the nomination. Get
that and | am confident of success.
The letter is said to have created tremen-
dous sensation in Albany
The court martial upon Major Osborne Cross,
Of the United States Army, late Quarter Mns-
Ter at San Francisco, who is charged with mis-.
applying and embezzling the public money,
commenced in this city yesterday.

STICK TOGETHER.

When midst the wreck of fire and smoke,
When eannons rend the skies asunder. Y
And fierce dragons with qpicksaing stroke
Upon the reelipg regiment thunder,
The ranks close up to sharp command,
Till helmets feather touches feather;
Compact the furious shock they stand,
And conquer! for they stick together!
When now mid clouds Of woe and want,
Our comrades walls rise fast and faster,
And charging madly on our front
Come the black legionS Of disaster.
Shall we present wavering band
And fly like leaves before the wild weather |!
No! side by side, and hand in hand,
Well stand our ground and stick together
God gave US handsome left, one right;
The first to help ourselves, the other
To stretch abroad in kindly might
And help along our faithful brother,
Thenif you see brother foil
And bow his head before the weather,
If you be not o bastard all,
You'll help him up and stick together.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.

The community this afternoon was thrown
into state Of intense excitement by the
shooting and killing Of Phillip Barton Key,
United States Attorney of this District, by
Hon. Daniel E. Sickles, member of Con-
gress from New York. According to re-
port, Sickles becoming convinced Of the
truth of rumors of the intimacy Of Key with
his wife, resolved to redress the wrong, his
wife, as it IS said, having signedan acknowl-
edgement of her guilt.
sMr Sickles, about 2 o'clock this after.
noon, discovered Key making signals from
or near Lafayette Square. He (S.) left the
house, which is nearly in front Of the Exc
cutive mapsion, and met Key who was con-
versing with Mr. Buttersworth, Of New York.
He charged Key with having dishonored
him and destroyed his domestic peace, and
shot him with revolver, one ball entering
his left side and lodging under the skin of
the opposite side. Another ball took effect
in his right thigh, near the femoral artery.
Key fell and implored Sickles not to kill
him. The third ball was in the right side,
elancing from the body. Death ensued in
a few moments.
The body was taken to the National Club
House, and jury Of inquest summoned
Their verdict merely stated that "the death
occurred from the effect Of pistol shots fred
by Daniel Sickles" .-
After the act was accomplished, sickles
went to the residence of the Attorney Gen.
eral, who advised him to deliver himself In
to the hands of the officers of the law, which
he subsequently did, and was conveyed to
Jail.
A further examination will take place to-
morrow.
The high position of the parties in this
tragedy has caused the most unusual excite.
ment. The city is full ofrumors, some stating
that the intimacy between Key and Mrs.
Sickles has existed for nearly year, and
that sickles previously demonstrated with
his wife against her injudicious conduct and
requested Key to discontinue his visits, but
nothing can be relied on till q. judlolal'in
vestigation is held. ....a aiGs@a

g The Americans of New York, at their
State Convention, held in Utica dominated
a State Ticket composed of selections from the
democratic and republican tickets. already
in the field. Our friends of the Express call
this the Smash the Machine-Break the
Slate Ticket" An appropriate name. as the
design of the ticket is to break up the party
machinery of both democracy and republican
ism. The Herald for q time dsliked the
movement, bnt has changed its notions. 1t
is now for smashing up the corrupt machine
ry ofparties in New York, and accordingly
endorses the Utica ticket. II says
The Utica American mixed licked of half
republican and half democratic State
ticket affords the best possible combination
for knocking both The corrupt parties TO
pieces. And thus they may both be sub
stantially defeated by hundred thousand or
even a hundred aud fifty thousand plurality
OF the popular vote.
The fact is that neither faction IRE
publican nor democraticl deserves the conf
dence of the people; both are equally cor
rupt; aud the very best way of giving them
a wholesome rebuke would be to vote for
the baliand-half mixed ticket. A hundred
thousand plurality for that ticket would go
very far towards emancIpating the voters of
both parties from The tyrannical dictati0n OF
treacherous leaders. -
Hurrab for the "Smasb the Machine ticket"
If it will .'emancipate the voters of both
parties it ought to carry by an overwhelm-
ing majority. ~

conjecture is allowable in such a case, that the
latter is gentleman of "elegaDt leisure" who
enjoys deer-hunt a bear-hunt, fox-chase
or a fish-fry with gusto almost Infinite;
that he is ere who always disposes of his
time at its full current value, whether he
is engaged in the serious business of legisla-
ton, or reposing on his otium cum dig. at
home. Assured of this, it is not material to
enquire into his age. as that is put down
~Oe',ia the catalogue. The nativities of the
Senators are, of Tennessee 16 ; of North

If ever. There are sixty-seven native Ten
