The fact that the Democratic National Con
~vention has adjourned over to meet at Balti,
more in june without making a nomination
has sorely afflicted our proponents. is They do
not know what to say or do. Originally they
had designated q day in the month of June
for their Chicago sectional concern, and after
the Democratic Committee fixed the 23d Of
April as the time for our Convention to meet,
nothing would do the leaders of the Republic
can party, but q change in the time of their
Chicago gathering, and hence it was changed
and the 10th of May designated as the time
for its meeting. The object was Of course to
be behind the Democracy, and now hat our
Convention is adjourned over until June, the
Republican leaders hang their heads and their
underjaws drop down like those of a mother
