CORRESPONDENTS FROM WASHINGTON

Mr.. EprToR: Since the disruption of
the Charleston Convention, the absorbing
question, in political circles here, is,
what will the Baltimore assemblage do?
The peculiar friends of Mr. Douglas
seem bent on using every appliance which
their desperate cause may suggest, in or
der to accomplish their grand object.
Can they succeed? / answer, eniphati-
cally--nol The same opposition which
was exhibited against him in the former,
will show itself more decidedly in the APP
preaching convention. The South will
never agree to endorse hin, or his outrage
GUS squatter-sovereignty heresy, which
denies to the people of the Southern
States equal rights with the North to en-
ter the Territories of the Union with their
property, and be protected there against
any infraction of those rights which are
accorded them BY the Constitution The
representatives Of the Democracy Gas |
said in former communication will
nominate sound, national man but
should the friends of Judge Douglas, by
any species of legerdemain, in the Balti-
more convention, succeed in foistiDg him
upon the people of the South against
their open protestatlons, the Southern
States will again retire from the conyen-
ton, make separate nomination, and
arouse their people by such an appeal as
will bear down all opposition in most,
and probably all, of the Southern States,
opJ ,Lue JouoIya ,yan tho Uo,,co &C d.
representatives. or the Senate the choice of
the next President, and by this means
ensure the selection of national Demo-
crat. But should such an alternative be
forced upon the South, they, with the
constitutional Democracy of the North,
may, by wise action, carry also the States
of Pennsylvania, California and Oregon,
against all other combinations.
Let the South and its constitutional
allies of the North unite in nominating
either BREoKENRIDGE, HUNTER, or JET
PERSON DAVIS, with such man as BIGLER,
of Pennsylvania, or Gen, LANE, of Ore
gon, for Vice-Pres deut and tie victory
may be won by the people without the
necessity of referring the question to
either House Of Congress. The most re-
liable information from Pennsylvania is,
that she will not cast her electoral vote
for Douglas under any circumstances
and should such nomination, as l have
named above, be made by the Constitu-
tional Democracy, with William Bigler
on the ticket, the old lion-heartcG Demo-
crazy of Pennsylvania, burning with re-
venge at the dastardly conduct of Doug
las and his co-conspirators, Forney & Co.,
towards their old chief, will step forward,
overwhe!m the traitors, and save the
Union. p.

than formerly and the smaller machine seven
inches wider than that of past seasons, IRE al

peaceful and painless. The deceased was

devotion to literary pursuits, and as
writer attained most popularity by his
admirable school books for children, un-

appeared few days ago in New York
paper, transmitted from this city by its

Eft A gentleman of high standing re-
siding in Iowa, in letter to the Lexing-
ton (Ky.) Observer, presents sad picture
of affairs in that State. He advises his
friends against making investments in real
estate there; has just sold lands himself,
at 81 per acre, and that in trade, for which
he paid $40 in 1857. He considers un-
improved land anywhere in the State dear
at over $l.25 per acre, except in coun-
ties bordering on the river-and further
adds:
'sNo man living out of this State can
have anything like correct idea of the
utter hopelcssaess of the state of things in
iowa. Speculation has been the ruin of
the State. The river towns are so fiat
that they never can get up again until
there is an entire change of population.
This place contained population in 1857
of 40, 900; is now reduced to Is, 900, and
people leaving just as fast as they can get
money to get away upon. The place is
in debt one million and quarter and
she, as well as Dubuque ct al. along the
river are now talking of repudiatng So
do not own lands in Iowa if you can avoid
it. 1t will make you that much poorer. :"

is ruinous to the cause. Let no Demo
