The Charleston Convention,

This body Of political wire workers ad-
journed last week, one portion to meet at
Baltimore on the 18th June, the anniver-
sary of Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo, the
other at Richmond on the 11th June
The niger in the woodpile was the ground
of dispute between the two factions, the
speeches and resolutions having demonstra-
ted that there is no more harmony of opin-
ION on this question among the patent de-
mocracy than there is between republicans
and northern democrats with southern
faces"
From present indications the platform
can never be built except upon the cheat
ing system. The planks cannot be made
to fit by any possibility, and as there are
three of them, each one will submit to be
splintered up into lucifcr matches before it
will be tounged and grooved into either of
the others. We have first, the principle
upon which Mr. Avery stood, which repu-
dates the "Squatter Sovereignty" doc
trine in toto. The particular plank upon
which the seeding members stumbled out
ef the Convention, and without which
they never will re-enter it, was the first
resolution in the proposed adGendum to
the Cincinnati platform This denies
" that Congress has any power to abolish
"slavery in the Territories-or that Terri
"torial Legislature has any power to abol-
Z" ish it-or to forbid the introduction of
"slaves within Territory, or the right to
destroy or impair the right of property
" in slaves by any Legislation whatever =
This much negatively, to which is added
the third resolution, which asserts d" that it
" is the duty Of the Federal Government
ito protect when necessary the rights OF
"persons and property on the high seas,
:" IN the Territories, or wherever else its
constitutional authority extends" Upon
this issue the Withdrawing delegates have
planted themselves, prcclaiming that they
alone represent the National Democracy.
In mortal opposition to this theory is
the doctrine of the Douglasites, around
which so many fierce battles have been
fought. This afirms the right of the Ter
ritorial Legislature to settle the question
of slavery within the bounds of the Terri,
tory, and virtually denies that Congress
has the power to interfere either for OF
against the institution. When parties are
separated by lines 50 distinctly drawn, and
by theories, however abstract, so essential.

mise upon which they can unite.
