In our next we will refer to tbe causes

This kept harmony in the Convention, led
to union in the nomination, and will lead
the Democracy to a most glorious victory
in November next.
i A grand ratification meeting was held in
Washington on Saturday night last, at
; which Senator Douglas, Gen. Cass, and A.
Stephens, of Georgia, spoke eloquently in
favor of the nomination of Mr. Buchanan.
No nomination, w-e are sure, could have
been made more acceptable to Gen. Pierce,

of the last Congress from tbe Lexington

equals, and talents to lill any political sta

the Hon. F. '. Cuttings, of New York, will
be remembered bv inanv of our readers.
When Mr. Soule signified his desire to be
recalled from the post of Minister to Spain,
the mission was tendered by Mr. Pierce to
Mr. Breckenridge, but he declined tbe hon-

CURIOUS SCENE IN CHURCH.
In the church of the Rev. Henry Ward
Bcecher, of Xew York, on Sunday, the
minister preached a sermon on the Sumner
assault case, and, at the close, called up to
the pulpit a very light colored slave girl
from Staunton, Virginia, who, he said, had
been sent to bim on her personal security
to be freed by subscription. If that was
not done in a week .-he would have to return
to slavery. The Eev, gentleman made an
appeal which brought tears from the eyes
of the audience, and $800 from their pock
