Democratic Mass Convention.

). ). SCHOFF Esq,
DEAR SIR.-I went to Agricultural Hall yes
terday to attend the Mass Convention. When /
arrived 1 found I. w. Webster f. Robinson,
Mr.. Parker, Mr.. French, John Baily and Mr..
Schmitt grocer of your city. P. T. Briggs OF
Somers. Mr.. Chauncy Kellogg, of Pleasant
Prairie, ]. NJ. Kellogg, John Lacy, of Bristol,
Dudley Cass John futile, Mr.. Nellis, of Sa,
lem and three or four other gentlemen did
not know.
The meeting was called to order by F. Rob.
inson of Kenosha. After which j. NJ Kellogg
remarked that he understood there was to
have been "Mass Convention" there that af
ternoon and he approved of such meetings for
the nomination of County Officers, he therefore
moved that the Convention resolve itselfinto q
Mass Convention without distinction of party
The motion was seconded by Judge Webster
of your city,, with few briefremarks, where
upon F. Newell, of Paris, was nominated chair
man. Mr. Newell thanked the Convention fol
the honor, but begged to be excused. He was
still urged upon, when he remarked that he
had no particular objection to preside over the
Convention and put their motions for them
but he did not come there to take any part MOI
as q Spy-but understood there would be q
General Mass Convention, the object of which
he was ignorant. He wished it to be under
stood that he would not be responsible for
their doings, nor endorse the sentiments of the
Democratic party or the meeting-and tool
the chair.
John Bailey was chosen Clerk. A committee
| of seven was appointed to nominate candidate,
for County officers. I believe the following
are the names ~
Timothy Mahony, for Sheriff, L. B. Nichols
Clerk of the Court, E. G. Timme, Clerk of the
Board, 4. Handbook, Register, PIT. Briggs
Treas, F. Robinson, Coroner, Geo. Hale. As
sembly. think there was no nomination fo,
District Attorney.
The meeting then adjourned.

CoRRECTIoN-The following item will ex-
plain itself. The "Old Traveller" whose com
munication was published some weeks ago,

to do injustice to an innocent person, and takes
this method of making the amend honorable.

am informed, that my mis- location of the
Interview in July last, with Station agent
OF rare type, in western New York, has
brought very different person into enua6le q
notoriety, by my unwilling mis-nomer of the
station, as Brockton, instead of Portland. .
This error Isineerely regret, still those con-
versant with the two stations, must know
which station has near its east door, what was
once fountain, although the force of the
Gathering Ram" nearit may not be observed
at first sight.
Hoping the keeper of the Brocton station
will take it as coolly as the sucker, who be-
ing found in company with yasakee, and saw
agely cowhided by a southern mob as an abo-
huonist, immoderately laughed during the in
fiction of the one hundred Iashes well laid on.

Democratic Address,

Democratic Address.
GEO. c. BATES, of Chicago, delivered lee

remarked that the party want no more speech.

ring the course of his lecture, he made use OF

cause we won't labor for the reelection of the
present Congressman, they call us red handed
traitors, forsooth ~ The gist of his discourse
was to prove that the States in rebellion never
were out of the Union, proposition which no
one denies. He said some sharp things, bu I
more silly ones-made some pious remark, but
more profane ones. Taken altogether, we are
willing to let it stand side by side, with Gov.
Salomou's, as the exponent of the chaacteris-
tics of the two parties.
After he concluded, the audience, who had
been dropping off for some time, rose and start
ed for the door. But they were not to get off
so easily. JAS. s. BROWN who was on the
stand, brought part of them to q halt and
button-hOled them as it were, and went on
to tell them that there was no danger in ad-
hitting the Southern States-they didn't con-
troll the Congress before they seeded, and
and therefore they couldn't control it now
But the audience kept growing smaller by de-
gress and beautifully less, and when we left,
he was gesticulating at the nearly deserted
seats, as frantically as ever. We did not stay
to see the finale, but conclude it was rather
small.
