Tho Vallandigbam Convention at Co
lumbus. if they did not represent the Dem
ocratic party, assumed to speak in their
name at least, in such . way as to produce
with many the impression that they are the
Democratic party. and in this way have Sc
riously compounded the character OF that
party. They say in their proceedings at
Columbus, that the Democratic party are
lar abiding party, assuming to represent
that party themselves; and yet it was well
known that a public mob OF their friends al
