The Cleveland Convention,

The Convention which met in Cleveland
on Tuesday nominated General Fremont for
President, and General Cochrane, of New
York, for Vice President. Various prop.
ositions were offered, previous to the nom
ination to postpone that action. Mr., Ran.
som thought it would be better to wait until
after the Baltimore Convention, and he
afterwards moved the appointment of a Nom
mating Convention, to be held in Cleveland
on the first Wednesday in September, which
motion found only nine votes in its favor.
Mr.. Powell, OF Washington then moved to
adjorn over to the Convention at Baltimore
on the 9th Of June which was declared out
of order. The nomination Of General Ere.
mont was then made by reclamation. Gen
eral Cochrane, B. Gratz Brown, and General
Butler was named for Vice President, where.
upon General Cochrane asked leave to re.
tire from the Convention, and upon Mr..
Gilbert taking the chair the question was
put and General Cochrane was nominated
with four voices in the negative.
After the nominations were disposed of a
Committee was appointed to report plan
of party organization and name for the
party. From the celebrity with which this
Convention has acted in the nominations,
there is no doubt the matter was fully arr
anged and understood before the Convention
met. The party is to be known as the Rad,
ical Democracy.

The Convention.

We have so little to report of the proceed
ings Of the Constitutional Convention, that
it may be summed up in few words. The
Convention is moving along by slow and
easy stages, like the advance of Mcclellan
on Richmond. The Bill of Rights is dis.
cussed an hour or two each day the Convcn-
ton is in session, when the motion to ad-
journ prevails. During the time the body is
in session, it is generally occupied listening
to long windy speech of some reb mem
Der. What good humored, quiet. patient
set of Union men the good people of Mary
land have to listen to Secession and States
Bights balderdash. At the resent rate the
Convention is moving it will get through the
Bill of Rights about the time the frosts of
Autumn appear, and will be ready to put in
lars day for listening to rebel orators bla-
ting, is little enough. The sessions each day
are norrelously short, but this is not to be
wondered at, for we think two hours would
prove painfully long to endure la rebel slang
which our Union members seem to relish so
passivcly. One of our Cecil members re
marked few days since that the Convention
was killed with "gab." We think it must
be, as no signs of life are perceptble in it.
The people, though not dead, are very sick
of this Annapolis CAB, which is consuming
time and treasure worse than uselessly. The
Union members are responsible for permit
ting such procraStinatlon

maintained the national credit abroad, who
as commanderin-c chief of the army and navy
has rallied to the nations support the strong
arms and willing hands of our countrymen
to meet and overcome in many hotly con-
tested battles the hosts of treason and rebel
lion, who during the entire course of his
administrative career has evoked the patriotic
responses of the masses of our people by his
devotion to their cause, and his protection of
their interests be it therefore
Resolred That in Abraham Lincoln we
recognize and appreciate the representative

vote for such electors as may be favorable to
the reelection of Abraham Lincoln.
On motion, the convention adjnurned.

PURE CATAwBA WINE.-Mr. Shobe.

PURE CATAWBA WINE.-Mr. Shobe,
who is celebrated for his manufacture of
Catawba wine, and whose vine yards are but
few miles from Elkton, presented us, few
days since, with a bottle of his superior
Catawba. Mr.. Shobe is a practical vine
culturist, his European experience having
made him master of this branch of hus-
bandry He thinks the Delaware, which is
fast becoming tavorite grape with the pub
lie, will produce a milder wine than the
Catawba, and better suited for table
wine. Mr.. Shobe has written a pamph,
let on the cultivation of the grape and wine
making, which every one who intends to
give this delightful branch of hushandry any
attention, should procure and read. The
cost of the pamphlet is but trhe, while
the information it contains would prove in
valuable to grape growers,

A GAY SoLDIER.-Under this head
the Baltimore Clipper of Monday last notices
"a number of cases where soldiers have been
arrested for having more wives than the law
thinks is good for a man among others is
the following:
On Saturday morning detective John
Smith arrested Edward johnson, charged
with bigamy. Nearly FIVE years ago he mar
red a Miss Elizabeth Lewis, in Cecil county,
and shortly. afterwards they came to this
city to reside. A short time since, he
enlisted in the army, and married Young
lady named Martha Graham. Wife No. j

tanning of warrant for the gay deceiver.

ton under the Act incorporating the town
of Cecilton, was held ON Thursday, the 26th
ult, at which the following gentlemen were
| elected Commissioners for the ensuing year
Dr. Samuel V. Mace, VIM. T. Weldon, John

A DANGEROUS BRIDGE.-We call the
attention of our County Commissioners to
the condition Of the bridge near Sites Mill.
The bridge is entirely too narrow, and
greatly out of repair. 1t has been in this

without delay, that accidents may be avoided.
We have heard of narrow escapes from Sc
rious accidents, recently.
