MASSACHUSETTS DEMoCRACY.-The DEM
ocratic state committee met In Boston, yester-
day, Nathaniel Wood of Fitchburg, in the
chair Thirty members of the committee
were present The subject of Col. Austin's
conduct, (late collector,) was suggested for
discussion, but there was a very general indis-
position to revive that quarrel, and it was laid
over. Resolutions declaring it inexpedient to
call state convention were adopted by vote
of q to g. Preferences for candidates for the
presidency were the subject of warm discus
sion, but, as the meeting was private one,
the result is not stated. Mr.. Hallett, who was
detained from the Charleston convention on
account of domestic affection, will attend the
Baltimore convention on the 18th of June. 1t
is understood that he does not favor the aspi-
rations of Mr.. Douglas, which will occasion
the loss of one more vote from Massachusetts
his substitute, Mr.. Chatfee, having voted
steadily for him 10 the end.

A TERRIBLE ToRNADo.-The terrific tor
nado along the Ohio river, Of which mention
was made in the telegraph columns yesterday
morning, was more destructive to property
than at first reported. 1t is believed to have
extended from Louisville to Marietta, and the
damage cannot fall short of one million dollars.
All the river towns in its course suffered, and
many coal boats sunk, involving loss Of more
than one hundred lives. In Cincinnati stee-
pies were blown down, and scarcely promi-
nent building escaped damage. Many people
were injured by the falling roofs, and six mel
killed. The fearful tornado visited the sur
rounding country with great force, tearing UP
thousands of trees, and bearing them on
ward for long distances in its mad career,
barricading the hi ghways for miles, while the
Cincinnati and Dayton railroad was covered
with forest Of fallen timber A train of cars
was hurled from the track steamboats, were
wrecked, and innumerable houses unroofed.
The storm is described as coming in the form
of a densely black cloud two miles in breadth,
which rolled with fearful rapidly along its
course, attended by lightning and thunder OF
a most appalling distinctness. Probably we
shall have to record further damage when the
western papers come to hand.

THE NEWSPAPER WINDOW AT THE LONDON
PosT-oFFICE-It was quarter before six
when they crossed the Hall-six being the
latest hour at which newspapers can be posted
without 1t was then ust drilling news
papers. The great window of that depart
ment being thrown open, the black fringe of
thunder-cloud of newspapers impending over
the Post-office was discharging itself fittully-
now In large drops now in little now in sud
den pumps, now stopping altogether. By
degrees it began to rain hard by degrees the
storm came on harder and harder, until it blew,
rained, hailed, showed, newspapers. A foun-
tain of newspapers played in at the window,
Water -spouts of newspapers broke from the
enormous sacks and engulphed the men inside.
A prodigious main of newspapers, at the
Newspaper River Head, seemed to be turned
on threatening destruction to the miserable
Post office. The Post office was so full already
that the window foamed at the mouth with
newspapers. All the boys in London seemed
to have gone mad, and to be besieging the
POst-office with newspapers. Now and then
there was girl now and then a woman now
and then a weak old man but as the minute
hand Of the clock crept near to six, such
torrent of newspapers came tumbliDg in to-
gether pell-mell, head over heels, one over an
other that the giddy head looking on, chiefly
another's heads, and flying the garter in the
Post-office with the enthusiasm Of the corps of
acrobats at NJ. Franconi's, didn't post them
selves nightly, along with the newspapers, and
get delivered all over the world. Suddenly it
struck six. Shut, sesame! Perfectly still
weather. Nobody there. No token of the
late storm-no a soul, too late But what
chaos within Men up to their knees in
newspapers on great platforms ; men garden
ing among newspapers with rakes men going
up and down gigantic trap-an ascending
and descending room worked bv a steam en-

| papers. All the history OF the time, all the ac-
cidents, all the chronicled births, Deaths all the
crimes, all the vanities, all the changes, all the
realities of all the civilized earth, heaped up,
parceled out, carried about knocked down,
cut, shuffied, dealt played, gathered up again,
and passed from hand to hand, in an APPARENTLY
interminable and hopeless confusion, but really
in system of admirable order, certainty, and
simplicity, pursued six nights every week, all
through the rolling year.

now the precise number of votes which may
be depended upon for the Bell ticket in Massa-

remove the Boston Courier to "another and a

thousand votes. But as it is, with reasona-
bic prospect that the Courier will continue TO
exert its customary influence during the cam

THE CLAIM TO PRoTECT1oN FOR SLAVE
PROPERTY NOT TO BE ABANDoNED.--The
claim of the south to federal protection for
slava property in the territories, will never
be abandoned. The southern states call up
on their northern brethren to carry out the
agreement of 1856 AS the Supreme Court
has decided that the duty Of garding and protect
ing the o,oner in his rights in order to quiet for.
ever the agitation Of the slavery question,
should embody the principle OF protection in
this platform, and the party be united in prin-
cpe as well as organization. The only plat
form that can make the democracy again a
national party is one that fully, unequivocally
and unambiguousy recognizes the right OF
protection, and the duty OF all the departments
of the government to afford it. We have great
hopes that the Baltimore convention will, in a
spirit of fairness and justice, give the southern
states platform that will preserve those states
to the democracy, and not one that must hand
them over to the opposition.

From the New York Tribune.

FLIGHT OF DEFAULTER.-Mr. Postmas-
ter Fowler is now said to have left in the
steamer Moses Taylor for Havana on the night
of the 18th instant. The Moses Taylor did
not leave at the regular hour, and it is pre-
sumed that Mr.. Fowler went on board in a
steam,tug, and when more than nine miles
out embarked on board. His personal, not his
political friends, made up liberal purse for
him of several thousand dollars-enough to
take care of him. Ii they had known in time
the amount OF his detalcation, it is said the
whole would have been subscribed to relieve
him from trouble. The detalcation, it is now
known. is of long standing, and much CORES
pondence had taken place with the department
on the subject. Mr. Gustavus Conover, one
of his bondsmen, deposits his half OF the bail
bond in the bank, to be paid if the courts de,
cree him liable, and sails for Europe in the
Adriatic June 2, to be absent two years, as
previously arranged, for the education OF his
children,

GROWING DIsCoURAGED.-The complaint
with which the democrats have been afflicted
since the nomination of LINCOLN and HAM
LIN, is assuming very malignant type. In
its more advanced stages the patients see very
unpleasant visions, and hear ominous sounds
which ought not to be heard. The hallucina-
ton operates so painfully that it would be an
act of kindness "to dispatch the grateful pa
tients in day" if the place of that inevita
bic tragedy had not been already fixed in the
chronological order of events. The Boston
Post pauses in its pursuit of the "cow boys"
and solemnly puts it to the people of Massa-
chusetts, if they are prepared to take the ru-
inous position, held by Mr.. Lincoln, that "the
right of property in man is not distinctly and
expressly affirmed in the constitution" For
an antidote to such horrible doctrine the
Post insanely demands "grand uprising for
the Constitution" as if it had forgotten how
often, and how sadly these grand uprisings"
have been made and failed. 1t is scarcely a
week since the nominations were made, yet
every day is multiplying these exhibitions of
confirmed frenzy.
