The OnnositiOn Convention.

This convention which assembled in the
c,tv of Baltimore, on last Thursday, was
largely attended, every county in the State
being represented. Its action was perfectly
harmonious, and indicated disposition to
unite the entire Opposition vote in the COM
ing Presidential contest.
We had tt ought that an effort would be
made to nominate candidate for the Prcsl-
deucy. but upon more mature reflection, and
a pretty general interchange of views, 1t was
thought expedent to wait the action oil inc
Baltimore and Chicago conventions. II they
shall harmonic OH candidate, we shall have
no doubt about his success.
There is however one portion OF its action
about the propriety of which some difference
of opinion may exist, and that is the APP
pointment of electors. If the Baltimore con-
yention, to assemble on the 9th inst, shall
furnish a candidate that will unite all the ell
ements of the Opposition, and the electors
appointed shall cheerfully acquiescc in said
nomination, all will be well; but If this is
not the case, If councils adverse to this poll
cy should prevail, and an exceptionable man
should be presented, one around whom the
entire Opposition cannot rally, it will be
found, in all probability, that some of the
electors will decline, ard that another electo-
raj ticket will be brought before the people
to sustain other candidates than those ofthe
Baltimore convention. We hope this will
not be- and we are satisfied it will not cor
respond with the sentiments Of a majority of
the delegates TO the late State convention;
they anticipate such action in Baltimore on
the 9th inst, as will bring into harmonious
action all who are opposed to the democracy,
and in anticipation of such an event, they
voted for the appointment of electors. we
hope the result will no. disappoint their ex-
pectations.
We were pleased to find that our friends
from the Eastern Shore with whom we con-
versed, seemed to look upon the united OPP
position as essential to tho success oil the
party, and rcpudiated the idea of third
candidate.
II remains to be seen what the conventions
to be held on the 9th and 10th will do. II
wisdom and prudence shall characterize then
action, we shall be with them heart ant
hand: but VIC do not bind ourselves to g.
for any candidate that may he put forward
ut Baltimore or Chicago. If Judge Bates o
Judge Mclean shall be the candidate, or an.
other man upon whom the entire Opposition
can unite, shall be presented, we shall give
him our hearty cooperation, and ant'cipat
o glorious triumph.
We may have more to say about the con
yention next week.

When Frederick coanty was called, Mr..
Scbley nominated Grason Echelberger, when
Mr.. Kilgour took the floor and said that as
one of the Frederick delegation, after the
sentiments expressed by Mr.. Eicbelberger, he
would not endorse him.
Mr.. Eichelberger said that the sentiments
he had expressed were, that he sanctioned the
course of the Hon. Henry Winter Davis in
voting for Pennington. Immense cheer

that the gentlemen MR. Kilgour) had left

which prevented the endorsement.
Mr.. Schlev said that he had nominated
Mr.. Eicbelberser because six out Of the seven
of the Frederick delegation were in favor oil
his nomination. He did not sanction the &C.

Mr.. Purnel called the gentleman to order
The issue raised was a false one, and did not
concern the Convention. Itwas side issue
and was only calculated to disorganlze the
party. He was astonished to hear gentlemen
applaud and his such sentiments as had
tendency to njure the party.
Mr.. Thomas called the previous question
while half dozen persons were calling on
the President, but he would not Recognize
any one. After much confusion the Com
yci,tion came to order. On motion, all those
nominations where there was but one noml-
mated to each county, were unanimously con
firmed. The Frederick delegation were re-
quested to consult, and after spending lev
minutes in consultation, Mr.. Schley stated
that under no consideration would the Fred
erick county delegation withdraw the name
of Mr.. Echelbergcr.
Mr.. Kilgour nominated John A. Lynch, o.
Frederick county, in opposition to MIR. Elch'

ties with the following result:

How so JAMES 2-The Local of the Jour

not sensible Of having done any such
thing. IL by the Union men he means
those who united with the Democracy 10
defeat Henry s. Lane, and who express
determination TO give this State to Douglas
we own We are perfectly indifferent tow
ards them, and look upon them as we do
upon other Democrats, as enemies 10 the

ton. oanfs-
But for those who honestly advocate the
claims of John l'ell from convictions of
duty. and who are unwilling to be sold 10
Douglas 10y venal party leaders we confess
we have a warm sympathy. With such
men We stood in 1856 battling for Mr. Fill
more, because We were honestly OF the
conviction that he was the bes. man. We
can easily understand how such men could
consistently vote Tor Henry s. Lane, life
long friend of Hesry Clay. And it was
because they had confidence in such men
as Henry g. Lane that they could consist
y vote with us at the late election. But
how could men who profess to have been
friends to Henry Clay vote for a man and
with party whose opposition to Mr.. Clay
during his life time had been bitter and
malignant I No honest motives could in.
duce men TO act thus. IL is contrary 10
human nature, and TO common sense. No
thing but desire TO cheat the people out
of their choice could induce men TO make
such coalitions as this. Those who voted
with us did so because they had more con-
fdence 10 our men and in our policy than
in the men and policy of our opponents
They aided US voluntarily because they
could trust us and our candidates. We
made no bargains aud sales. no union elec
toral tickets. We plainly aud clearly an-
nounced our principles, we presented good
men--true and honest men, and IL was
this aud these which induced the honest
portion of the friends and professed friends
of Bell TO vote our ticket. fa faa
We are glad TO have their votes aud theil
help, but we are unwilling to do wrong
aud act shonorably to induce others ts
do right.
