THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONvENriON.-The
Democratic National Convention adjourned about
one o'clock, on Thursday last, to meet in the city
Of Baltimore ON the 18th of next month, in or
der to afford an opportunity TO those States
whose delegates had Withdrawn, to gil up their
delegations No business of consequence was
done on Thursday. The whole number Of votes
taken for q candidate for President, without eff
fecting choice, was fifty-seven. Mr.. Douglas
received the highest number Of votes on all the
ballotings, his vote ranging from l45t to 1894,
the latter being majority Of the entire vote Of
the Electoral College, which is 3o3. The rule
of the Convention, however, requires that two
thirds of the entire vote of the Electoral College
shall be necessary to make nomination. There
fore no nomination was made. The half votes
are explained by the fact that each electoral vote
Is represented by two delegates, aid when the
two from any district cast their votes differently,
they are counted - half votes. Thus the high
est vote given for Mr.. Douglas represents S05
members Of the Convention, out Of the COS pre-
sumed to be present This is but little short Of
two-thirds of the members who remained in the
Convention, and exercised the privilege ofvoting.

WISCONSIN BACKED DOWN.

The letter Of S. NJ. Booth on our first page pre-
sents a graphic deliuiation Of the present position
OF Wisconsin in relation to the Fugitive Slave
Law. While We hoped she would maintain the
stand she took in the commencement Of Mr..
Booths case, we OF the same time fetred she
would not be able persistently to maintain it.
She did as well as could be expected; for bound
and crippled by constitutional obligations, how
can o State stand up and successfully plead her
sovereignty against the decisions of the U. S.
Courts There is no question but her people de-
sired to defend the right Of Mr.. Booth, and Of all
other of her citizens to defy and trample upon the
Fugitive Slave Law. They went to the utmost
limit of thoir constitutions right to do so, and
would have succeeded in the attempt had not the
U. S. government been determined to enforce
Congressional enactments and maintain the decis.
ions of her Judiciary. Then was pressed u,ou
the people Of that State the question, Shall we de-
fy the Federal authorities, dissolve the Union
maintain our Independence, and protect the rights
aud liberties Of our citizens; or, shall We yield al
for tho sake of peaoe2 Not being ready for dis
unionand freedom-and they could not achies
the latter without creating the former-they in
glOriously yielded, and consented that their stat
laws should be t~rampled under foot, the decision
( Of .heir Supreme Court made null and void, an
the citizens Of their state imprisoned because the
5 loved freedom aud dared to lie humane.
We are glad that while Mr.. Booth condemn
the Federal administration for the course it la
pursued toward him, be as righteously arraigu
the Republican party Of Wisconsin for having con
scented to turn traitor to the Legislative enactment
i. passed, to belle the Judicial decisions it mad
to falsily every promise it held out to the lovers
Of freedom as an inducement to give it their sup
port, and to eat dirt for the sake of the Fedora
Union. The course pursued by the Republican
Of Wisconsin is another confirmation of the ute
no pelessness 81 trusting to political parties, organ
lied under such a government as this, the defenc
of human rights. No matter what their profes
sions, they have always failed in action, when &C
ton was most needed. 1t is only safe to trus
them 80 far as their fancied interest runs parable
with the rights Of man; the moment there is an.
3 divergence, party, and not right, is the path the
follow. lie who relies upon them to sustain hin
in a contest against oppression, will, in the hour c
, his extremity, find himself as forsaken as is S. NJ
Booth, and perchance, like him, the inmate Of
Federal prison.

A GREAT WILL CASE IN NORTH CA~RoLINA--ONE
HUNDRED NEGROES SET FRsh.-We learn from the
Iredell Express that the case of SOLOMON HALLS
will occupied the Superior Court of that county
eight days. Mr.. HALL had made a will leaving
one hundred negroes and other property to his on
ly child, a daughter, who afterwards married Mr..
NELLY against his WISH whereupon lie made ar
other will, leaving his negroes free, and leaving
most of his property to them. The suit was to
set aside the last will. An hour after the case had
gone to the jury, Mrs. NELLY proposed to receive
SIS 900 and $4,000 which the will gave her; the as
tate to pay the court costs, $500, she to pay her
own lawyer $1,000. The proposition was accep-
ted, The negroes will be sent to Liberia.

that within his own personal knowledge there had
been landed at Corpus Christi from slavers within
the last TWO months, not less than nice hundred
native Africans, all of whom were disposed Of to
planters residing in the interior of the State. Not

SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN.

One Of the most interesting and useful publica-
!ions which comes to our sanctum is the Scientific
Americana weekly publication, devoted to popular
science, new inventions, and the whole range Of
mechanic and manufacturing arts. The Scientific
American has been published for fifteen years, by
the well known Patent Solicitors, Messrs. Mum
l. Co. 81 Park Row, New York and has yearly
Increased its circulation, until it has attained, we
understand, nearly 80 900 subscribers, which is the
best Of evidence that tho publication is appreciated
by the reading public.
To those of our readers who may not be famil-
lar with the character Of the paper, we will state
some of :he subjects of which it treats, Its illus
trated descriptions of all the most important i'm.
provements in steam and agricultural machinery,
will commend it to the Engineer and Farmer,
while the new household Inventions and shop tools
which are Illustrated by engrayings and described
ir its columns, with the practical receipts contain
ed in every number, renders the work desirable to
housekeepers, aud almost Indispensable to every
mechanic or smith who has o shop for manufac'
turing new work, or repairing old.
The Scientific American is universally regarded
as the in sontor's advocate and monitor, the re-
pository CT American inyent!ono, and the great
authority OH law, and all business connected with
Patents. The Official List of Claims, as issued
weekly from the Patent Office, in Washington, are

lished in the world. Hon. Judge Mason, former
ly Commissioner of Patents, is not only engaged
with the publishers in their immense Patent Agen
cy department, but as a writer on Patent Law
and Practice, bis ability is fOrcibly portrayed il

GSApThe Montgomery, Alabama, Nail talks Of
refusing to let postmasteIs appointed by Lincoln,
if he should be elected President, take possession
of the Offices. The Albany Evening journal makes
this remark the text Of a caustic article. 1t says:
1t is the prerogatiye Of any community, as it is
Of any individual, to refuse to patronize the Post
Office Department, If they do not wish to receive
their correspondence through the mails, no one
has the right or disposition to compel them to d.
SO. We are quite sure that President Lincoln will
be the last man to use or recommend any force ii
such n contingency.
1t would, however, be a fortunate thing for thu
revenues of the department if the people dowr
South should compel about one.half VI their post
masters to throw up their commissions. they are
a very expensive set of fellows-eating q grea
deal more than they earn and drawing upon thu
North for the deficiency.
For instance, during the last nineteen years
the mail service in the Southern States has cos
S50.544,4l6 IS, and the receipts have been onl,
S27 $40 $40 GS; showing a deficiency oil nearl,
hcenty three millions Of dollars!
During the same period, the mail service ii
Northern States cost 500. SOL 500 81, and the re
ceip:s were -6S 648 $40 10, showing a surplus o
nearly eight millions Of dollars!
What more lucky thing could happen. therefor
than the voluntary suspension Of two or thrc
hundred Of these pauper establishments? 1t woul,
be ~pre-eminently fortunate if what is threatene,
should happen in Alabama, where the figure

WING PRINCIPLES OUT AND oUT.-TOn Corwin,
in a letter to the great New York mass meeting
elsewher referred to says, There is not q single
political principle In our Republican creed to
which every old Wing cannot subscribe"
Political abolitiohists used to denounce the old
Wing platform and its occupants as intensely pro-
slavery; but the same platform and the same
men under another name have become their high
est embodiment of political abolitionism. 1t is
said "a rose by any other namo would smell as
sweet" and We should think The sane principle
would apply to platforms, whether labelled "Cin-
c%innati, l84O," or "Chicago, 1860"

\ few days ago, within about twenty. four

fine fellows, field hands, were placed on board the
Mobile steamer for this city, aid having safely ar.
rived, are to be sold on Friday, at the St. Charles
Hotel, by Julian Neville. There is much discus.
sion and inquiry as to the character Of these ne
groes, whether they are Of the recent, or whether
they are a portion of the one hundred and ninety

unreasonably enough, preferred rather the COM
Portable quarters Of our river plantations to such
narrow accommodations as Uncle Sam proposed to
furnish them. One Of the lot, o boy Of seventeen,
weighs one hundred and seventy, and is over six

tribe, and that his father was q renowned warrior
Of that warliko race.
The landing Of a cargo Of Africans right under
the nose of Judge Campbell, the most ferocious o
