HIGH OLD TIME AT THB DBMoCRATIo WIG
wAM.-The meeting Of the Democratic Associ-
alton last night appears to have been rather
spicy affair. A resolution was offered, it ap-
pears, some weeks since in that body endor.
sing the National Intelligencer, and recommend
country, which resolution was laid over, and
last evening 1t was called up by Mr. VIM. }.
Miller.
The resolution, apparently so innocent,
proved to be a she'll crammed with explosive
material and came near shtvertnk tie associa-
ton to atoms, as 1t was considered by the
friends OF the Conststrt,o"GS On,os, paper pub.
be poaching IN the territory Of that paper.
Captain Aiken, Mr.. Clampitt and others ap-
peared as champions for Mr.. Florence, and
argued that the Union had been started in dark
days, when the very boys who dared to sell 1t
were stoned, and its subscribers were branded
as secessionists and Mr.. Florence had lost
thousands OF dollars in the enterprise, and it
would not be just to set that paper aside now,
when things were changed.
About this time Mr.. Florence entered, and
was heartily cheered. After taking short
rest, made necessary by climbing two long
flights of stairs, MIR. F. stated that he under
stood there was controversy between the
Intelligencer and the Constitutional Union. There
should be no controversy between them. He
went on to state that he had lost thousands Of
dollars in establishing his paper: He under
stood that the gentleman who offered the res
olution Mr.. Miller had said that Tom Flor
ence had too much to say in the meetings. II
the meeting thought 80 he would draw out and
rely on an enlightened community and sound
Democracy for the support Of his paper. The
Inteuigenccr should not be hustled about like
shuttlecock and battledore.
Mr.. Miller stated to avert Ill feeling he
would withdraw his resolution.
Mr. Finn said he could not withdraw it. as
it was the property Of the meeting, and he
further stated that he Mr.. Miller) had taken
it out Of the drawer in which it had been
placed.
Mr.. Miller Indignantly denied the assertion,
and
Mr.. Finn reiterated that he did, at the same
time advancing from his seat at the table on
the platform towards Mr.. Miller, who was
standing Immediately before the President, on
the floor There was much confusion and
crowding up towards the stand, during which,
Capt. Gary was seen to leap over the platform,
aid approach Mr.. Finn, and put his hand on
his shoulder as If to separate the belligerents
At the same time Dr.. B. Blake made his way
up, ana getting between the two belligerents,
acted as peace. maker, and at length, COM
paratiye quiet was restored, when
MIR. Clanpltt said that to restore good hu-
NOR he would announce that q vote had been
taken during the day In the cars which 70.
suited as follows: Mcclellan no; Lincoln Sc.
Mr.. Florence also proceeded to read letter
from the Hath Pa. now at the 'front.' which
stated that they had taken a vote which gave q
large majority for Mcclellan, but the confu-

prevented the figures being heard however.
Calls were now made for Captain VIM.
P. Gary, who appeared and stated that

speech. He hoped that hereafter when re.
solutions were to be offered they would be
