Democratic Convention.

BALTIMORE, March IA gentleman just from
Washington, says the feeling Of the National Com
mittee is strongly favorable to having the Demo
cratic Convention meet in Baltimore, as it appears
to be impossible for the large masses of the people
who will be likely to attend, to get accommodations
at Charleston, even at the most exorbitant prices.
Prominent citizens here offer to furnish the Ma
ryland Institute and several other large halls for
cost All the hotels and eating houses are pledged
to make advance in their prices and the citizens
without distinction of party, will throw open their
doors for the accommodation of the vast crowd
As further inducement, the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad and roads connecting with 1t in the West
