Bss- We learn, from the Baltimore papers, that
the election of delegates to the Charleston Conven-
ton, by the democrats Of that city, was attended
By violence and riot, and we have looked, in vain,
for those outbnrsts of democratic Indignation which
so invariably follow general election In, what
locofcco editors are pleased to term, that city of
blood. All thcrioting and bloodshed at elections,
have been charged upon the Americans, in the face
of the clearest evidence to the contrary, and now
the whole truth is told at last. The democrats were
called upon to elect their own delegates-the
Americans had nothing to do with it--took no part
in it, yet the same scenes Of violence were enacted
which have heretofore been attributed to the Amer-
cans. The secret is out. The democrats have
established their own guilt by fighting with one
another when there were no Americans with whom
to get up 'muss" Their riotous propeusities are
uncomfortable show them q ballot-box, and fight
they must even among themselves, in the absence
Of an opposing party.
