themselves together in tho K

By what process these have

. The visitors wore but few. Of these,
the *hig gunf were Gen. HARDEN of
Clark, and the Hon. JOHN FORSYTH.
After the organization . of the Conven
tion, the President delivered, for the
occasion, an appropriate address. The
Body then proceeded to appoint Com-
uritSees See., and, before the adjournment
it was announced that, at 3 o'clock. P-
E. ’ den: < Harden would address the
Convention. And he did address them /

This ho made a teryplain and a very

ance, the bitter pill was as greedily
swallowed by them, as* by others mpre
ancient in tbe “ Democratic” faith.):. At
the close of his add resale exhor tedr jibe
young “ Democracy’* to persevere * in
tho good cause, and amid a thundering
applause, from the Convention, this d»s-
tinghjshed “ Demqcrat” took his scat.
In truth, we look upon this address
of Mr. Forsyth as detracting from his
welt earned reputation. It was empha
tically a failure. There was none.of.the
Mr.'Forsyth of other days in it. This
may be accounted for in a variety of
way@»—but it is enough to say, that the
cause ho was engaged in—tho late dis
appointments which he, together with
his firetbren of the Vqp. Buren Party,
has ^experienced—jhagriued at being
compelled to address a Conventioi *
two or three hundred persons, wltoh be,
like_Ilitchie, expected to see. coqypned
as many thousands—ail this tended, no
dohhr, in a groat degree, to. throw-him
off his feet. Upon one or two occa
sions, however, hissarcaitie powers were
brought to bear, in full force, upon /the
objects of bis wrath, as was the case
when he thought proper to assail the
“eloquent calumniator”-—but even then
there was evidently so much x>f the dis
appointed politician before us, as fo pre
vent the expressive sneer having its full
force upon us. . We pitied^ while others
applauded, and only, wished that he had
served his country more, and thb/Van
Buren party less. Immediately .after
htty address, he left the Convention,
when that Body proceeded to despatch
bnsijiess far which it had assembled.
The Committee of 21 appointed to

A LIBERAL CHURCH.
The Presbyterian Church in Natchez,
says Dr. Gillet, consists of about 200
members—neither the largest nor the
wealthiest church in the whole Presby
terian connexion ; .but its annual chari
ties to the various benevolent objects of
the day, have averaged for the last ten
years between 12,000 and 15,000, dollars
a year, and, in one of those years, they
exceeded820,000. Even in the ecclesi
astical year not yet closed—a year of
disastrous visitation by whirlwind and
fire, 88,000 have been raised—-twice the
amount raised to support tbeir bwa
ordinances of worship.
