The Democratic State Convention of Mas
sachusetts, assembled yesterday in Worces
ter, but the Democtatic party is of small ac
count in this Commonwealth. It is even
smaller thau it would be if it was properly
managed. The old leade rs, accustomed to
being beaten at home, and to sharing the of
fices when the party has been successful in
other States, don’t seem to care about in
creasing the vote here as long as it is pretty
sure that they cannot elect their candidates.
They understand lrow to keep the party
•‘conveniently small,” so that the cherry of
patronage will not be divided between too
many when it comes. The Convention was
run this year by the lightweights of the
party. The “heavies” did uot turn out
though elected delegates. The speakers
were men of small influence and no prest
tege. The platform was shaped to the pres
out order of things, according to Johnson,
so far as national politics are concerned,
but local questions were slurred over,
as they bad becu done by the Repub
licans. The only issue of interest in the
State is that in regard to the sale of intoxic
ating liquors. The Republicans declined to
take sides on it, but tbe Inhibitory Law men
profess to be satisfied with the assurances ot
the Republican candidate, who is himselt a
generous liver, and personally liberal man in
such matters. An attempt was made to en
graft on tbe Democratic platform a plank in
favor of a License Law, as opposed to tbe
Prohibitory Law, but it tailed. The Demo
crats ought to have taken that issue. Many
Republicans, especially among those who
will support President Johnsou's reconstruc
tion plau, are opposed to the recent fanatical
legislation about the rum traffic. If the
Democrats had spoken out upon the subject,
tbe Republicans would have been obliged to
carry the burden of tbe Maine Law. The
Democrats did as well as they could in the
selection of a candidate, having taken a
general, who though by no means a hero of
the late war. was about as good an one as
there went from Masaebusett* —‘Gen- Dariu t
N. Coueb, of Taunton. The remainder of
the ticketxontains no names requiring com
ment.
The greatest thing iu connection with our
State politics is the maimer in which the
claims of the working men—ou the eight
hours a day movement —have been slurred
over by bolb parlies. Both resolutions de
vote a resolution to the subject, neither ot
which means any more than the proposition
that a quart pot holds two pints.
Speaking about generals, Geu. Banks ar
rived here very quietly tbe other (lay, rather
late, but perhaps not too late to be brought
forwarded as a candidate for Congressman
from tlm district formerly represented by
him, and since his time bv Mr. Gooch. Mr.
Gooch has been provided for by the appoint
ment us Naval Officer at this point To fill
his place various contestants have appeared,
by their next friends. ’ The Most prominent
of these are J. Q A. Griffin, an original
Abolitionist, one of the most theoretical of
the faction, and James M. Stone, recently
editor of the Commonwealth, and also a radi
cal. Thu w ire pulling has been going on for
some time, aud now that Gen. Banks has
come home, evidently with an eye to his old
seat, there is a chance for confusion in the
ranks. The General has already been “in
vited” to speak in Charlestown where the
workingmen have been pledged to go for
Stone, who promises to use his influence in
favor of the eight hour system. But Griffin
says he is in favor of only six hours work a
day; and Geu. Banks has the host record of
all’, for it is well known that when he was a
mechanic, as his adherents delighted to call
him, he was not in favor of work at all! Ueu.
Banks is a practical man, and lam inclined
to believe t hat he stands on the same plat
form with President Johnson. Be has seen
cnugli of the reconstruction question to take
out of him any pet theories he might have
entertaiued betore the war, nud bis early
schooling was in the Democratic school. —
He is by far the best man named by the Re
publicans for the place, and of course the
Republican candidate will be elected.

Hon. Alexander H. Stcpheui.
From the boston Traveller.
We cbcerfully give room to the following
communication irmn a merchant of this city.
Tlie writer speaks truly ot the character of
Hou. A. 11. Stephens, who is really one of
the least ohjecionable ot the prominent men
engaged in the rebellion, and if favor is ex
tended to any of them, it should be to him.
We are assured that UDder no circumstances
will he leave the country, and that he would
rather be executed here, than live and die an
exile in a foreign land. A petition asking
for him the privileges suggested by our cor
respondent. would receive tue signatures of
mauy of our most prominent ciiizens :
To Thi Editors of the Travel er: -
Phe pardoniug power exercised hy our
Chief Magistrate goes on slowly, nud no
doubt discriniinately, with an eye single to
tbe policy which lie has adopted, of re-con
struction. But it is remarkable that the very
men who have first come forward success
fully to claim Executive paidon are those
who were the movers and leaders in the
doctrine of secession ; while ihe petitions of
some of l hose who stood out and did battle
for the Union, so long as there was a hope
left, remain unacted upr.n.
A paragraph from a Georgia paper, allud
ing t.) the pardon of Yancey and others who
tonk so prominent a part against Stephens at
the inception of the rebellion, even threaten
ing him with personal violence for his advo
cacy of the tiuion on the soil of Georgia,
questions the motives of the President in his
partial discrimination
And to us the wonder is natural enough.
If these rabid secessionists are pardoned to
demonstrate the liberal policy of the admin
istration toward the people of the South, it
would certainly he more gratifying to the
true Uuion people of both sections to see
those men who were opposed to secession,
and who maintained an untarnished loyalty,
of sentiment up to the disruption, have, if
uot a prelerence, at least an equality of
clemency at the bands of the executive.
And in this connection the position of
Alexander H. Stephens suggests itself promi
nently. All his efforts were for his whole
country —undivided. Hisjprophetic warnings
at the Milledgeville Convention, in the very
teeth of an overpowering majority—his im
ploring appeals to the people of Georgia,
made iu almost every city and town of liis
State, have been rend and applauded by
every true lover of his country In Massachu
setts, aud throughout the whole North—and
yet he remains, almost tbe only prisoner in
our midst.
While we condemn him for allowiug him
self in any way to. be connected with Jeff
Davia nr his party, yet it is due him for bis
grout efforts;to prevent tbe deplorable acts
of secession, and for his policy in seekiog a
convention of the people to wrest thc power
from Davis, and stay bloodshed and ruin by
conciliatory negotiation, that some Executive
clemency be shown him.
The quality of merits la not Strained ;
It droppetuas me gentle rain trum heaven,
It Is twice blessed.
it blesseth hint that gives, and Him that takes :
Us mightiest iu the mightiest.
It is true that the President ba9 allowed
to Mr. Stephens uli the indulgence that can
pe fXteSMte! him as a prisoupr, but it is
equally true, tbtit he is a man of extreme
deiicaey ot f>hfiiq»e and constitution, aud in
capable obviously of sustaining tbe rigor of
bleak winter in our harbor.
While we cannot advocate the pardon of
any rebel, yet it would be magnanimous and
noble in us ip be qualified to say that Massa
chusetts—that' Boston—against whom the
venom of the agitators of secession has been
cast, was the first in the North to move in
favor of Mr. Stephens. And it would re
dound |p our benefit as well as credit,
for Georgia, the Empire State of the South,
idolizes -him,- and the favor of Georgia in a
commercial poiut ol view, is worth securing.
New York has four lines of steamers run
ning toSavaunah laden with goods, and re
turning with the products of her rich soil—
cotton, rice, timber, &c. Bolton bus none.
Besides, Charleston iking almost blotted out
commercially, Savannah is bound to be the
leading business point for us to regard : and
Georgia to-day has probably more of tbe
staplts of recuperative wealth and entei
piise left than any three of the other South
ern States.
The exireme animosity manifested by kb#
people aflht Suutli ff> wards Massachusetts,
sfid vice versa, pas turned the channel of
trade to New York, and we notice tba» tlje

An Engllili Detective in New York.
CnASK AFTER AND SCRTRISE Or FRAUDULENT
BRITISH BANKRUPTS.
[From the Leeds ( Fng.) Mercury, Sept. H.j
It will be remembered that about three
months ago two manufacturer in Gomersal,
named Blackburn, absconded to America
with goods and money to the amount of
4.-50,000. Tlie creditors were naturally deep
ly incensed at his conduct, and Superinten
dent Iluut, of the Leeds detective police,
was sent after tlie men, to endeavor, if pos
sible, to recover put of the property. On
arriving at New York Sir. Hunt ascertained
that part of the property, consisting of forty
six bales of cloth, was stored in one of tbe
Custom House warehouses ; but as no trace
could be tbund ot the Blackburns it was quite
evident that they had gone, accompanied by
a younger brother, into tue interior ot the
country, with the view of avoiding the result
ot any mission such as that engaging the at
tention of tbe Leeds superintendent. About
a week after Mr. Hunt's arrival he heard by
accident that a fourth brother had come out,
aud having by this time considerably changed
his personal appearance, he obtained an in
troduction to ine younger Blackburn. Not
only did the latter tail to recognize Mr. Hunt,
but actually told him in confidence that a
Leeds detective was coming out in search of
his brothers, and that he intended to warn
them of the pursuit. As might tie expected,
Mr. Hunt entered heartily into his scheme
for communicating with his brothers, and
assisted him iu oveihauling the passengers
of all the steamers arriving out, with the
view ot gaining information regarding the
probable arrival of tbe expected detective.
After a few days Mr. Blackburn went to
New Jersey, and sending a man to watch
his movements, Mr. Huui remained in New
York, where he entertaiued strong hopes of
meeting with the elder brothers. A bill of
tadiug, addressed to the Messrs. Blackburn,
for twenty bales of cloth, had been inter
cepted at Liverpool, and as its possession
was necessary before the goods could be ob
tained, it amounted to almost a certainty
that the embezzlers would call at Inmans
stopping office on Broadway to ask alter the
bill. Mr. Hunt bung about this office for
some time, and at last Ins patience was re
warded by tbe appearance one morning of
tlie elder Blackburn and Mr. Walter Black
burn. Mr. Hunt was silting in the office at
the time, bnt quickly adopting his plans, be
hustled up to tbe visitors and requested to
know their business. Mr. Blackburn stated
that they had called respecting a bill of lad
ing for twenty bales of cloth which had
come by tbe Edinburg. Mr. Hunt replied
that all the questions in regard to the bill
would he answered at the branch office at
Exchange place, aud that as he was going in
that direction he would show them the
place. The Blackburns at once complied,
evidently having no suspicion of wlidie
hands they had lallen into. Ou the way Mr.
Blackburn remarked that Mr. Huut did not
speak like an American. “ No,’’replied the
wily superintendent; “strangely enough,
every body can tell the Irisu longue.
He was then asked how loug he
had been in the country, and evasively le
plied that he had not been there six years
yet. In his turn Mr. Huut a-ked the Black
burns wliai part of tlie country they belong
ed to, and was told that they came from
n -a- Huddersfield. It is Decdless to detail
the conversation that took piace on arriving
at Exchange place. Suffice it to say that by
mean* of keeping up a conversation with
some persou supposed to be in nn empty
room there, he induced the Blackburns to
endorse the bill of lading which had been in
tercepted, and also to give up aud endorse
another bill and invoice for twenty-six ad
additional bales. Alter the bills were safely
deposited in his pocketbook lie proclaimed
his calling, and, much to the astonishment
of Mr. Blackburn, produced a warrant for
his arrest on a charge of embezzlement.
Blackburn, however, knew that the warrant
was of little avail under the circumstances,
and after blustering a good deal he departed
with his brother, declaring that he should
have Mr Hunt arrested for deceiving him in
the manner he had done of tlie bills of sale.
Although that gentleman remained some
time in America this threat was never ra Tied
into execution, und after exchanging the
bills of sale and the invoices for Custom
House permits, aud handing them over to
the solicitor appointed to act in New York
for the creditors of the Blackburns, Mr. Hunt
returned to this country, arriving in Leeds in
the beginning of this week. The value ot
the property recovered is between five and
six thousand pounds.
[From tlie Richmond Commercial Bulletin ]
A Southern Flunkey.
Major Calhoun writes North to borrow
qtofiey for the restoration of Atlanta He
seems to think that be strengthens his claims
to assistance by stigmatising his fellow-suf
forers of the South, and by proposing extra
ordinary devotion to those whom, we sup
pose, be has iu times past denounced. Hear
him:
“Atlanta might almost be saifi to be the
offspring of New York. M-iny antigreat ate
the favors we have received ifom bur in the
past, now kindly remembered by ©unpeople;
aud though'-':-he help t*> punish.-us for our
lolly, we will go to her for favors agitn, and
that with confidence.
“Os course, you know our city w»s de
stroyed to a great extent, and our ptople
were sent everywhere in exile, attended vith
great expense and loss of property «and,
though we lost aud suffered thus in a com
mon cause, (and in t. poor one,) not a South
ern sister city has helped us to the amouit
of one cent.”
Why does the Mayor make this fling at the
cities of the South ( Have one of them a
cent to give? Can Richmond, destryed by
conflagration, or Charleston ravaged by fire
and sword, or indeed, any Southern city
which has itsowu misery to maintain and its
own damages to repair ? The Mayor W At

They believe that men who hare suffered for
their opinions, arc sincere iu heir purposes,
and that when they take tie oatu of alle
