The Democratic National Convention at Charles.
con was temporarily organized yesterday by the
choice of Mr.. FlOurnoy Of Arkansas as Chairman,
with Vim. T. Richie of Virginia as Secretary.
The Soft Delegation from this State and the Doug
Las men from Illinois were primarily admitted to
seats and their rivals shu. out by decree Of the
National Committee-an arbitrary act, which ex-
cited some feeling. Committees of one from each
State on Organization and on Credentials New
York and Illinois not represented in the latter)
were then formed, and the Convention adjourned to
this morning, when it is understood that Gen.
Caleb Gushing of Massachusetts, will be made
President. The Committee on Credentials is ex-
pected to report in favor Of the New York and Hi
nois delegations already seated; but there will be
minority report in favor of the Wood or Hard dele
gates from our State, which will hardly be disposed
of without tumult The Convention is full of ex-
plosive material and the Chairman had all he
could do yesterday to keep it within boiling dis
lance of order.
We Judge that the ultra Southern Delegations
who were fierce for having Slave Code Platform
adopted frst under penalty of their secession, will
be cooled off and induced to keep shady, finding
that their premeditated policy would play into the
hands of the Douglas men, who would Like nothing
better than bolt by three or four fre-eating Dele
cations just before the first ballot for President.
Our Special Correspondent seems to regard
Douglass defeat as nearly certain; and it is clear
that the selection Of Gushing for President is not
GOOD symptom. But we suspect the New-York
sots are playing Possum till after the decision on
their right to sit, after which, they will demonstrate
for Douglas. If they do not his case looks bad
since New.Jersey as well as Pennsylvania is re-
ported adverse to him. But nothing can be clearly
seen till after the contested seats shall have been
disposed of.
Hunter seems likely to stand next to Douglas on
the frat ballot; but we do not believe he can be
nominated in any event. The Democracy do not
mean to give us the election.
We shall DO disappointed il the first ballot for
President is not taken to-day.

MAGRATH ON PIRACY AND THE
sLAVR-TRADE.

Of the present exact whereabouts of the famous
slave yacht The Wanderer we are not able to speak
with precision Some months ago, as our readers will
recollect she was alleged to be run away with from
the port of Savannah by one Captain Martin, and
to have been carried of by him. without papers or
clearance, on a new slaye-trading voyage to the
coast of Africa The next thing we hear of her,
she turns up at Bostsn, whittier she was brought by
the mate and part of the crew, whe, not liking
the voyage on which Captain Martin was bound,
and his style of conducting it, had taken occasion Of
his absence from the vessel to sail with her for Bos
ton. Early last March, by what process we have
never been able to discover she was got out of the
hands of the Marshal, restored, we suppose to the
redoubtable Lamar, and sailed for Havana. By
this time in all probability, she is on the coast Of
Africa taking in fresh cargo of slaves, which, I'M
less she is captured by some British cruiser, she will
land in due time, if not on the coast Of the United
Slater, at least in Cuba.
While the Wanderer thus fits from one slave
expedition to another, lame sort Of hue and cry
is kept up after her by the United States officials,
who are still busy in the parade of prosecuting,
without, however, the slightest result, so far as
the cupri!s are commemorative parties implicated
in her original oense of landing cargo Of African
slaves on the coast of Georgia. A 6ght-we are
Inclined to think very sham fights kept up
etween the United States authorities for the Dis
riots Of Georgia and South Carolina over the body
Capt. Corrie, the commander of the Wanderer
in her first slave expeditions Judge Magrath of
the United States Court for the District of South
Carolina, pertinaciously defeating all the attempts
of the United States authorities for the District of
Georgia to get hold of Corre and to bring him to
trial there.
II seems that Corrie after bis cargo of slaves
was landed on the coast Of Georgia, judging South
Carolina, We suppose, to DO about the safest place

As our Common Council has resolved TO enter
upon the laudabe work of indicating the rights Of
our City against Legislative .usurpaton, we aztec;
tionatey advise the members to begin BY iudig-
Dantly refusing the 81, 200 each per annum, whi'h
the Legislature most unjustifably voted them.
That salary is given in violation of the Charter, and
of the virtual pledges of the Aldermen and
Councimeu when they solicited and obtained
Office. To accept it is to admit that their outcry
against Legislative usurpaton is either farce or
an attempt to black. mail the embryo railroads. Let
the members turn their own pockets inside out and
show them devoid of stolen property, before they
begin TO cry Stop Thief.

1t seems hardly possible to crowd so much no
toIious fal,ehood into FIVE lines. Controller Haws
has exactly carried out "tle Albany plan" with
regard to the Department of Public Charities. The
bill was passed on clear understanding that two
Commissioners should be appointed from each
party so as to render auy pergersion to party pur-
poses impossible. But for this the measure would
have been defeated as the Health BILL the Charter
Amendment bill, and others Like them, were. Had
there been such an understanding with regard to
the health bill, that, too, would have become law.
The late Legislature did some things which we
strongly condemn; but the pretense that they de-
pIyed this city of its franchises for the benefit OF
the Republican partyi is not true Even the new
Police bill has not been and will not be- used 70

ures affecting our City were passed By the votes OF
her own Democratic Members.

TIE mails for Europe, by the steamship Persir
will close tomorrow morning at 81 O'Clock.

The members of the Common Council grow more
liberal since the Legislature voted them handsome
salaries Last night the snug little sum of $4,000
was appropriated to pay the expenses OF the Com
mittee appointed to attend the Sanitary Convention
in Boston. The probable extent of their labors
will be to test and report upon the quality of the
Massachusetts State Liquors. Subsequently
donation of $500 to one of our deserving charities
was laid upon the table. The issue of S25O,OOO of
Central Park Stock was approved; an attempt to
put through an appropriation of $50 900 for the
entertainment of the Japanese Embassy, and other
friends of the Common Council, was pressed with
much perseverance, but eventually laid over The
Councilmen required the CrOtOn Department to re-
port the names, position and salaries of all its en-
ployees, preparatory it supposed, to putting in
claim for their share of the Offices in the new deal
