Tho Convention can never agree—
somo States will surely secede. Tho
Douglas men are firm and confidenti—
Tho South stands united and will not
yield. Tho Northern men uso tho two
arguments that non-intervention was
endorsed hy all the Democratic States-

doomed to defeat on any other plat

After closing and dispatching my
last communication of this date, I re
turned to tho Convention Hall, and
found Mr. Burrough of Ark., still speak
ing. He was belaboring the Douglasites
most unmercifully, and in reply to their
argument, tlmt with the nonintervention
platform, they could defeat the Black
Republicans, ho said there was little
doubt of the fact, for that platform
would lie about as acceptable to the Re
publicans us thoir own. At times it was
utterly impossible to boa? n word he
said, on account of the noiso made by
the Douglas men, by stamping on
(hior, clapping thrir hands and laughing.
This was done to silenc? him. It was
-led to sufih nn extent that a large
body of the •Southern men rose I
their seats and faced the mob—for it
little cIbo. Tho Douglas men hero,
being in tho minority, havo manifested

Washington, July 12. 1857.
My Rear Air: — I duly received your
letter ol the 28th lilt., on Friday last,
and read it to tho Cabinet, then in ses
sion. The views which it contained
were not calculated tnm*uro us of your
success, though wo dhl not despond.—
Hence you may judge with what satis
faction we received an account of the
proceedings of the National Democratic
Convention, held at l.econiptou on the
;U him. The point on which your own
Simeon depends is tho submission of the
Constitution to the people of Kansas,
and by the people l mean, and l have
.loubt you mean, the actual bona fide
vet! Lot that true patriot, Dr. II.,
know this, but don’t lot him got ox-
cltod, and buy out Sutter, or Car
dinal!
Hon* we worked Saturday l t Went
clean through one pair of brogun* 1 I
talked to Doculas’ friends, to Hunter’s
friends, to Guthrie’s friends, to Lane’s
friends, to all t hoir friends! Then came
the tug of war on tho platform! It
was close—d—d'close—mind I tell you.
But we got’em, ns old Sijcillkns, in
Autauga, used to win his quarter races
—by a half head 1 This'time, I think
wo will hold ’em down—still, it’s a little
uncertain. If my man goes through,
i any tickot, tho country’s saved !

North stands about niggers! Old Cau-
ueh told mo confidentially. They don’t
euro a d—n about tho niggers, hut tlioy
don’t want the Southern people to have
their work. They don’t love the nigger
—d—d if they do! Ward Brecheu
kisses .’I'X) women it week, as pastoral
duty, and never has bussed a nigger yet!
Think of that—it’ll all come right,
when my man's made Vico. We shall
remember all old friends according
to merit. This you can say to Dr.

P. S. fid.—Don’t think I’m a firo-eut-

that if better order was not maintained
he would, as a duty to Iho Convention,
a< well ns to himself, feel Imund to re

pinuded him loudly. Ho concluded by
stating that it certainly ought to he ex
pected that such an honorable body,
composed of men of wisdom, of age, of
experience and position, men who had
met to decide questions involving «>nr
dearest rights, should deliberate with
moderation and calmness. 11c again
assured them lie would resign his post
if such undignified disturbance was re
peated. This just rebuke whs keenly
felt, und nt (lie conclusion the most pro
found silence, and the best order pre
vailed. But again they were becoming
as noisy as over, when tho Convention
adjourned. During tho excitement,
various propositions wero submitted in
order to calm the tumult. Among
them was one from Mr. Walker, of
Alabama, to the oil’ect that tho President
bo requested to address tho Convention
on the platform, and tho Convention
at(journcd twitil Monday morning, for
that purpose. This mot with the ap
proval of a largo majority of tho Con
vention, judging from tho manifesta
tions made ; but it being out of order,
was not entertained.
The Don. Caleb Cushing, has won
tho esteem and unbounded admiration
of all, for the f.ir, able and decided
manner in which lie has discharged his
duties. He secs everything that is go
ing on in the Hall j never forgot# what
questions are first to bo considered by
him and is always prompt in his decis
ions, which have never been appealed
from. Ho is a great man nnd l boliovo
a pure man.
Tho Dougins mon are becoming tlcfi
ant and independent. Tho Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, and
some (1 hope nil) the Georgia Democra
cy remain calm and quiet, but linn and
determined to havo tiie full measure of
our rights, or quit tho Convention. Tho
latter they must do, and are now con
vinced of it.
Lively times at Charleston.—By the
dispatches in another column it will bo
seen tlmt there is a great "muss” in
tho Convention. Tho six states that
have seceded all mado formal protests
to tho platform adopted.
AH tho delegates of Georgia, except ten
have withdrawn, and tho President of
tho Convention has disfranchised them.
We supposo theso ten are determined
to hold on to tho national crib.

Crinoline at Charleston.—Tt is said
that quite u number of ladies have gone
to Charleston to exert thelririlhioneo in
behalf of their favorite candidates. That
fact will, in our opinon, render useless
and vain tho calculations of tho best
political prophets. The oloments are
uncertain (^non^li when only men aro
in a Convention. But if tho charms
and tho wiles of women aro to be taken
into the account wo surrenderall hopes
of being able to foretell tho result at
Charleston. We are told that money is
to be freely used upon the Delegates,
and tlmt an* alarm about the yellow le
er is to be started. But neither of these
would plizzie a calculator so much as it
would to determine wlmt the politicians
iu crinoline aro going to do.—Providence
