Can the seceders be Received at Bal

There are two Just reasons why they can2ot
he received. The first is so conclusive as to
render the mention of the second unnecessa-
nv. Their retirement terminated their official
life as delegates. They are politically dead
to the Democratic party. Can member OF
Congress who resigns his office, and thus pIa-
ces himself beyond the reach Of the Seargent-
alarms, return and execute the duties of a
Representatives The seceders retired from
the con ven ton and set up an Organizatio of
their own in opposition to the body from
which they separated themselves This
brings US to the secoud reason; They dlsa-
vowed the principles of the National De
mocracy; they repudiated them, and organi.
zed at once a sectional party. IL they were
honest in going out, they cannot be honest in
seeking to return If principles guided them
away, policy can bring them back only on
the condition of the sacrifice of those princi-
niles. II ii was robust manhood to seccde it
is weakness and disgusting abortion to hob
BILE back and ask to be received. But We an
ticipate no such abnegation, no such stullifi-
cation and folly. As little as we respect the
cabsl of prescriptions Senatorial managers of
secession in this city, we estimate the reti-
ring delegates too highly to suppose for mo-
meat that they can be used in any such de-
grading work. Certain it is, il We are wrong
in our Judgment upon this point, the BaIti-
more Convention will never receive into its
councils the seceders. 1t is to be Democrat
lie convention; it is to represent the Demo-
cratic party of the whole country. 1t ac-
knowledges no appeal from its decisions, and
no appellate power at Richmond. 1t cannot
recognize the secessionists. nor can il afford

Democratic .'Irrepressibie COnIiefo
I'm the Il bird District.

The Chattanooga Gazette, of Saturday, pub
fishes a lengthy and graphic account OF a
political discussion at Harrison in Hamilton
county, on the Monday and Tuesday Preced-
ing. The discussion was warm and exciting,
and was participated liz by Messrs. JOIN L.
HOPKINS and d. II. KEY, on the side OF
sGuatter sovereignty, and Col. JN0. A. MINIS
and HENRY :. HILL in behalf of Congression-
al protection-all democrats, in the generic
sense of that term. The tone OF the speeches
on both sides were decided, and their outgiV-
ings uneauivoeal. The two former were
positive in their declarations for the nominee
of the democratic Baltimore Convention. and
the latter equally positive in their declara-
ton against DOUGLAS. Col. MINIS is report
ed to have said that "he would see his coffin,
gather his shroud around him, and sink into
the depths of the great unknown future, be-
fore be would vote for such man under any
circumstances Considering that nothing
short OF a miracle can prevent the nomina-
ton of DOUGLAS at Baltimore, this strong ex-
preston of repugnance to his doctrines shows
that there is no chance for reconciliation
between these factions OF the Democracy.
These occurrences, taken with recent meet
ings in Memphis and Knoxville, indicate
that the Richmond nominee, if there be one,
will have an electoral ticket in this State, un-
less the friends of Congressional protection
consent to be ruled out of the democratic
organization and disfranch.sed at the Noyem-
Der election.
1t was free fight" and after the COM
batants had pretty thoroughly ''wOOled"
each other, our friend Thomas j. CAMPBELL,
Esq, in response to urgent calls, made
glorious speech in behalf of the Constitution
and the Union. Fortunately the occasion
was most favorable, as an illustration had
just been given of the divisions and distrae-
tions OF the democratic party, and that the
friends of the Union could no longer rely
upon that conglOmerate of disagreeing fac
tions for the assertion of the rights of all sec
lions under the constitution and the preserva-
ton of the Union; and the speaker eloquent
Iy and convincingly appealed to the people
TO rally to the standard of BELL and EVERETT
as the only one to overthrow the fanatics OF
both the North and the South. 1t was a
glorious days work for the Union.

be the last to suffer an infringement OF income
from the Revenue Collectors acquisitions
Ask those who rent dwellings and business
houses, and those who hire slaves, if their
rents and the hire of their servants do not
rise as taxes rise. The answer will come up
like the voice of many waters, "They dot"
But the ramifcations of taxation may be
traced farther than this, into the minute
branches of society. The man who seems to
pay only the poll tax, uneonsciously pays his
share of the property tax. Tell that clerk, or
that iourneyman mechanic, who is neither
householder nor freeholder," to ask the
lady or gentleman at whose private domicile
or public hotel he boards, why his fare costs
more now than it cost few years ago, and
he will bring you the answer, that rents have
risen, negro-hfre has risen, and taxes of priv
ilege have risen. Then go to the lady or
gentleman of the boarding houses, and to the
prOprietors of the hotels, and ask them why
their rents and the hire of their servants have
gathered SO much weight within the past few
years. Their answer will be, ssThe wealthy
persons from whom we rent and hire say they
must have more to cover taxes"
So you perceive, Messrs. Editors, there is
not wight of all us poor. cont emptible dew
lis who sojoarn in the city long enough to
eat plate of bacon and greens and drink
glass of diluted milk, who does not pay q
portion of the vaunted property tax, if he
pays for his dinner. The only exempts from
the real burdens of taxation, besides the stiff
rumped nabobs, are those insolvent fungi
of splendor, who pay only when they please,
or when they are required to do so in adj
vance, and who have not the fear of sher-
ifs and constables before their eyes. Would
it not sound rich, to hear some of these very
fungi talking disdainfully of those who have
no property-of those who are not tax
payers?
1t we could all keep in view this plain,
practical, inside view of taxation, those over
bearing old fogies of Nashville who attempt
to beat down the truth, when they don't
like it, by shouting, "no tax payer" at him
who tells it, would incur the contempt they
merit Possibly, with your permission, L
may in future have something further to say
on this subject. PLEBEIAN.
