A FewPOints for Thinking Men.

l. In all the past history Of the Dem
ocratic party, no National Convention
has placed in nomination candidate fol
President by less than two thirds Of the
whole electoral vote of the Union.
2. At the recent Charleston Conven.
ton, on no one of the 81 ballots did Mr.
Douglas receive either two thirds of the
votes of all the States. or eUen hCO Mird,
Of tie votes Of those States 0hicA did not
Secede.
3. The very highest number of votes
received by Mr.. Douglas on any ballot du.
ring the whole Charleston Convention,
was barely one more than one hat of the
electoral vote of all the States.
A. At no former National Conven-
ton of the Democratic party have the
friends of the leading candidate persisted
in forcing him upon the convention after
he had failed on fifty ballots to secure the
requisite number ofvotes.
5. In 1852, the gallant and patriotic
Cass was presented to the Baltimore con-
half of the convention were his supporters
Buchanan was also principal candidate
before the convention. After sufficient
number of ballots TO show that the Dem
ocracy Of the whole Union, could not
cordially unite in favor OF either, they
were Joh dropped and Franklin Pierce
was nominated and elected by an over
whelming ma Iority.
6. AT the Baltimore convention in
1874, Martin Van Buren was presented
for nomination, and on the very first bal
lot received a clear ajority of 10 votes
of the whole electoral vote of the Union.
On the second and third ballots, he again
received clear majority. After the Sth
ballot, his friends withdrew his name,
and James X. Polk was nominated by
the unanimous vote of all the States.
6. At the recent Charleston conven-
ton, it was shown by the result of full
fifty ballots, that Mr.. Douglas was posi-
lively unacceptable to clear one half of
all the delegates and to three tourlhs of
all the States which voted with the De-
mocracy against Fremont in 1856. Not
wthstanding this, and contrary to all
past usage. the friends of Douglas persis-
ted in pushing him on the convention,
and finally, after Jffty-seUen abortive bal
lots, dissolved that body rather than unite
on some neW candidate acceptable alike to
all portions QfMe Union.--Newark Advo-
cate.

The people of Massachusetts, Maine,
Ohio, and some other republican States,
says the Washington Consultation, will
recognize in the annexed paragraph an

tent adventures who have cont-ived to
obtain control of the State policy. We
extract it from the eloquent and patriotic
address of the democrats of the late New
Such is black-republicanism in the State
governments-such would it be in the
Federal Adminstration-only with great
er power for mischief:
at has been the artful device of dema-
gogues, Interested in misgovernment, to
direct the attention of the masses from
proRioacy and Encouragement at home to
the condition of distant Territories, or the
suGeriags of the serviie class IN oar neigh
boring States. The sympathy thus de-
voted to alien and distant objects has
been wasted, so far as practical results
are regarded-nay, has been productive
of evil consequences to the very class in
whose behalf it has been invoked. But
greater evils still have fallen upon the
people Of our own State, asho neglected
their affairs in order TO criticiSs those Of
their aeigh6ors in tie Contederaey,; and as
consequence, they must await the exac-
tons of the tax-gatherer and give up
their bard savings to make good the
waste and ruin ofevil government.
