The National Democratic ! Convention, tt

The National Democratic Convention, this
morning, nominated HORACE GREELEY, for
President, and, B. GRAFT BRowN, for Vice
President. This announcement will cause no
surprise, as the universal sentiment ofthe voters
opposed to the present administration through
out the country has been in favor of such action
ever since these candidates received the nomina-
ton of the Liberal Republicans at Cincinnati.
1t was unquestionably, in the opinion of the large
mass of the opposition, the only course that could
be adopted, under the existing circumstances,
that could relieve the country of the burden
under which it labors, and that course having
now been determined upon, if pursued diligent-
ly, will, it is the earnest hope of all true lovers
of constitutional freedom, lead to the success it
so we'll merits. @ "

Robinson, at Chambers, Ga. recently A Mr.
Dennis, from Putnam county, it appears, had
gained the affections of Miss Walker, of the
same county, and had obtained license to marry
her, to which her parents were opposed. On the
GROUND that the license was obtained by false
representation in regard to the age Of the lady
and the consent of her parents to her marriage,
an injunction was prayed tor restraining the
marriage, and also requiring him TO return the
license. The application was refused by the
Judge on the ground that he had no authority
to enjoin the marriage OF parties who were of
lawfu age to contract marriage; aud these per-
Sous were of lawful age; and if the license was
irauduleutly obtained from the ordinary, let
hum revoke or supersede It.

kept twelve bushels for seed, and ten bushels
of second quality. 10 all, 3S2 bushels, from
sixteen and half acres, making twenty-threc
and one sixth bushels to the acre
The land having yielded S45 to the acre be-
sides twelve bushels Of seed wheat and the ten
bushels OF second quality is now seeded in
timothy which is well taken, and there is a
fine prospect for good hay crop next year
Mr.. LANCE also has nine COWS which yield

He uses Poudrettc manufactured on his farm
of mari, charcoal, &C. The wheat was deiv-
cred dry and in good condition, was pronounced
by the best judges to be of first quality, and
made family -four.
