great Dcmocralic party—to gather to

tidious chivalry of South Carolina, and
the thorough radical^ of New York—to
soothe the prejudices which have grown
up between the Northern and Southern
4 Democracy, and arc every day gaining
strenglh—we think, even at this early
stage of tho canvass, is already suffi
ciently evident.
To prove that the bitterness with
which the Barnburners have received
hit Domination, is uo fiction, we subjoin
a few extracts from some of their most
^ rommcM organs. The editor of the
cw York Globe was present at the Con
vention, and seems to have noted its pro
ceedings with all the jealousy natural lo
o member of that section of the party to
which he belonged. lie wri tes of what
he saw In the following strain :
«• Wo hove but a few words to say
this morning respecting the outrage uj>-
on our Democracy, in the decision of n
purt of a National Convention, admit
ting two sets of Delegates from this
Slate. After having committed this out
rage nil obligation to support the nomi
nees of the Convention ended. No mat
ter who had been nominated .after New
York wai thrown out.the Democracy of
this State would not have supported the
candidates. We tell our readers that it
is as impossible to elect the Baltimore
nominees as it is to row a boat up the
Niagara Falls with a crowbar. They
cannot be elected, Ifcvery Democratic
paper in the Slate should give the nom
ination a hearty support, the result
would not bo changed. Lewis. Cues
will want from fifty to one hundred thou
sand votes of carrying the Electoral tick
et pf New York. The man who thinks
otherwise, knows little of the extent of
popular indignation respecting the out
rage committed on the New York De
mocracy. A revolution in parlies is at
hand. The bopeat of all parties will
come together, and the Democracy of
tho Union will become purified.
** The nomination m General Cass,
outside of the walls of. the building
'tfliich it was made, received not a sin
gle ebeer. The very boys who throng
ed the street in front of the church, gave
long and loud cheers for General Taylor,
tho moment tho nomination .of Cass was
announced. From the time Cass was
nominated, until wc returned to this
city, wo have not heard his nhme cheer
ed, cither in the hotels, in the’cars, or
board ihs. steamboats, or any where
else; the name of Lowis Cass was scarce
ly mentioned on our route home. This
is ominous. >• ■ : » ■ ' 1
■ I On .mi uutvar nomo, we learned
that the some degree $fsilence was ob
served. The reason- is obvious—the
Democracy of our State has been insult
ed—a spurious, conservative,* slavery-
extension Delegation,elected by nobody,
were allowed to sit by tho side of our
Delegates, in adjoining pews of the Uni
versalis! Church in Baltimore—the place
in which the Democracy of the nation,
through their representatives, assembled
to mako n nomination for the, higbesl of
fice in the gift of a free people. This
insult was loo great to be overlooked,
our Democratic Delegates withdrew
from the Convention.”
The ktecn, long-beaded editor of the
Globe, saw much mere deeply into the
trqc state of the cose than could tbos<?
whose interest led them to view it
throughlbe rose-colored mediumof hope.
His account of tho reception pt the nom
ination, is as different from, that of the
Union and the other papers which sup
port the nomination ns it is possible m
be. It seems, according to him, that
there was no enthusiasm manifested up-,
on tho nomination of General Cass,
outside oPibc building in which the Con
vention sat; and litis statement concurs
fully with all our intelligence of a pri
vate nature with regard to tho matter.
It is not doubted, as the editor says.tbat
without the assistance of the Barnburn
ers, il will he as impossible for vbo De
mocracy of New York to cany that
and lias had no judgment mid no honest
hearing on her claims. . To say that she i
will repudiate the nomination might im
ply that some shadow of obligation ° r
seeming lie bound her to the decision
of the convention. It i? not so. We
believe wc speak the sentiments of the
democratic masses of the state, when
we say that they will regard this nomi
nation as a thing concerning which they
have no responsibility, wfiich is not ad
dressed to them, and concerns them not.
They will take their own action in re
gard to the future. They are powerful
enough to do so, as the intriguers and
fanatical sectarians, who have broken
the seal of the democratic parly and
scattered its fragments, will find to their
sorrow.”
But we have not r^cn \-ct gone through
II the degrees of comparison. The
Globe and ihp Post may stand for the
positive ; the Atius may answer very
well for the comparative; but the su
perlative may be found in an article pub
lished by us a few days since from the
Troy Budget, and which is so good of
its kind that we caiiuoi forbear to repub
lish it;
“ A Convention at Baltimore to whose
action the people looked with some lit
tle interest, has nominated General Cass
for the Presidency. When the news
reached here, it fell like a dull, dead
weight, upon all classes except the
Whigs.
** The Baltimore Convention has ac-
coinplislied a feat which will long be
remembered among the remarkable
events in the political history of the coun
try. It has broken up tho democratic
party oft he uation !”
VYith these evidences it may not be
improper to incorporate that of the
Charleston Mercury,from the other end of
the Democracy, the editor oT which says
he is not wilting to see the State of South
Carolina placed in a position where they
might appear to go for Lewis Cass, “ or
some oilier equivocating betrayer ofour

A Busy Day.—The day on which the
next Presidential election will take
place, the 7th of November, will be a
busy one. Two millions of voters
over the country record their suffrages
for a national ruler, and as the Tele

that time over neatly tbs whole coun

be known and tefegrflj^ d by the next

This will be the greatest business ever

to be a preventive ot hydropbia, discov

Take two table spoonsful of fresh
chloride of lime, in powder—mix it with
half a pint of water, and with this wash
keep the wound constantly bathed, and
frequently renewed. The chlorine gas
possesses the power of decomposing this
tremendous poison, and renders mild
and harmless that venom against whose
resistless attack the artillery of medi
cal science has been so long directed il

wash should be applied as soon as. pos
