From the Morgan county Constitution
The Charleston Convention.

It is now generally known to our readers
that the object for which the Charleston Dem
ocratic Convention assembled has not been ac-
cornpishcd by that body. and that the Con-
vcntion adjourned TO meet in Baltimore o.; the
18th Of June.
y As much AS wc dcplorc the separation IN
o,r National Democratic CI:nncil at Charles
ton wc have neither been greatly surprised
nor made to trcmblc for the pcrpetuty OF the
Democratic party by it. w are not sur-
prised that there should be t"nnd in the Con-
vcntion Southern delegates refusing to accept
the Cincinnati platform, whah admits Oh two
constructions as to slavery in the Territories,
or those unwilling to support the nomination
of the Little Giant, Of the Vest, Stephen y.
Douglas, from the simple fact that neither
would be acceptable to the Southern people.
We have no fears that the Democratic party
will be broken up by the separation at
Charleston, because it is founded upon pr,ncl-
plcs acceptable to majority of American
ncop]c and must stand so long as the Amcri'
Union cxists-and the Onion sentiment
throughout the country Is lao strong 10 per
nit it to be broken up ~: '''r'unt oil my po
litical aspirant in it.
We confess our inability to see what good
the Southern delegates, who seeded from the
Convention, expected 10 accomplish ior the
South by their conduct. The proceedings show,
and we have been informed by one Of the Viz
cinia delegates Of the truth, that they could
have had the Cincinnati platform pura "poH
tie subject If slarery. No one could ask Inore
than this. As regards the nomination Of Mr.
Douglas. the ballotS-after the Convention Has
deserted BY most of the Southern delegates op:
posed to his onlnation-clcarly demonstrated
the impossibiity Of his being nominated. Be
sides this, tie two-third rulc was adopted;
giving ample assurance that Mr.. Douglas couId
| not be nominateaJ Hence, there was II" l''s'
| ground for complaint here.
But we have also been informed, ny one u
the Virginia delegates, that but Tor Inc not
headed action of a few OF the Southern dele
gates. the South could have obtained all SIG
asked fer in the adoption Of PLATFORM and
that the strongest probability Of the nomna
,ion Of either Senator Hunter or uov. " lse cS,
istcJ the delegations Of New York, OHIO ano
other free States having expressed dcterml
nnt;on 70 vote for one or the other OF these two
zentIamcn as 4 second choice. We zae forcei
70 the conclusion that the action OF certain
Southern delegates to the Convention wa'
prompted by something else besides the welfare
Of the South, and we hope that no such me;
may be permitted to occupy seats in the Balti
