The proceedings of assembled Democracy
were sigoelixed on the threshold by a fierce and
boisterous s-ruggte between "Old Fogybm and
'Young America." . m ,
Mr. Wise, the champion of the nrsT-tneationed
win"1 of the party, offered a resolution to the effect
that committee, Cuoaisiin . of ooe from each Con
gressional dwtrltK be appointed by ihe delegeiioot
irom ihe respective districts', 10 nominate perman
ent officer of the Contention.
The Young Democracy, for reasons beat known
to themselves, regarded thia wove as anttempt
,o stock the cards in favor of Mr. Buchanan, and
ncordinglyMr.CtAiaoaHa.ol Franklt;i, who is
understood to be a warm partia4n ef Mr. Douglas,
offered an amendment, the object ofwluch waa to
Uve the appointment of ihe c .mraitteeon orgeat
zation in ihe hands of the temporary chairman,
and not. ..proposed by Mr. Wue.ia tbahand
of he delegations from the CougressMaI districts.
The Question waa dieineily understood to inrolve
an issue between the old and jouag Democracy ;
or in oilier words, between Messrs. Buchanan and
Douclas; and accordingly a apiey damissioa en
uel between Mefsrs. Wise and Claiborne, their
respective champions. The Convent oa adjourned
over uuUl 4 o'clock without coming to a vote on
ilie question.
At that honr the discussion waa resumed and
carried n amidst gresi excitrneol and no hie eon
fusion. It was argned by Young AM that
the adoption of Mr. Wise's resolution would be a
departure Irom the time honored Osage of the
Democratic party, and would convey reflection
upon the temporary chairman. Old Fogylsau dis
claimed any intention to reflect upon the chair
maa but contended thai it was Out right ana pro
per that the Democracy from ver y part o) the
Slate should be represented in the appointment of
the committee on organization.
Mr. RaRDOLPH, of A luemarie, begged Mr. Ciai
borne to withdraw bis amendment, which might
lead to mischief, but could not possibly be produc
tive of any good. Already there were diversities
of opinion in the party, which would ultimately
lead to serious dissensions, ualese the Coaventioo,
in its incipient stage, proceeded with great caution.
One false step at ibis critical period might lead to
difficulties which could not hereafter be repaired.
Gov Floyd opposed the resolution of Mr Wise
snd supported the amendment offered by Mr. Clai.
borne. He was decidedly opposed to departing
from the time honored usages of the party, by pur
suing the course contemplated by the resolution i
of Mr. Wise, and while he lavored the amendment
of Mr. Claiborne, it was due to justice to say that
he did so not because ol any distrust m the fairness
of the chairman. He eon d sat to him as St. Paul
said to Alexander, the coppersmith, "You have
done me some harm; the Lord rewaid yon accor
ding to your deserts."
Gov. Floyd was interrupted in. the course of
Ins remarks bv Mr. V ise, and a somewha angry
. .. 3 - w
aliercntion ensued between those gentlemen, ac
companied wi h great ex ci eroent among the mem
bers ol the Convention This storm had no
sooner blownover titan another tempest waa raised
by Mr. Rives, of Prince Goerge, who made a
vehement assault apon the member from Accomac.
He said that when he-saw the gentleman from
Accomac offering resolutions professing to have
in view the interest of the Democratic party lus
mind reverted to the time when ibe vouthlui vigor
of Mr. Wise was employed in Congress to thwart
the measures or Andrew Jackson, and to bring de
feat and disgrace upon his Administration. The
gentleman now claims to be an ardent Democrat;
yet, when a motion was pending in Congress to
investigate the tffcirs of the United Mates Bank,
the gentleman opposed it with alt his wight, and
made every effort m his power to screen from
scrutiny the affair of this monster of eonuptioa.
Mr. Wise retorted with bis usual spirit denying
thai be had ever sougfct lo screen the affi rs ot
the bank from scrutiny. He had quit the admin
btiaiion of Andrew Jackson because Martin Van
Buren, the enemy of the JSoutn, waa Ihe favorite
of that administration. His object was to porify
the Democracy of such men aa Van Buren, and
he had toe satisfaction of knowing that bw object
had been attained. .
Mr. Rives. Then, sir, if thai was your motive
for leaving the party, I ask with what consistency
or propriety, you could afterwards support Gea.

mainly by tbe influence ol abolition votes, ibe en

City
Here a scene of indescribable confusion arose.
Tbe Democracy, apparently aware of tint unseen
ly spectacle they presented' to theoutidbarbar
iaas"otihe Whig party who thronged tbe g alie
ns, determined to put a stop to the discussion at
all hazards, and accordingly the voice of tbe in
trepid orator from Prince George was drowned
amid tbe deafening cries of "euedie,'' "oneston,"
'quetltoHl" Tbe vole was ukeu on Mr. Clai-4
burne's amendment late in tbe evening, by ayes
and noes, but the reauit will not be announced
until the meeting of the Cooveniioa lb day."
The principal part of Thursday, also, was de
voted to the organization of the Cooveniioa Mr.
Claiborne's amendment having been rejected and
to listening to "harmonizing" speeches, of which
roan? were made.
The Convention finally adjourned on Friday.
Resolutions were passed affirming the resolutions
of 1798-"9; denouncing a protective tariff; denoun
cing a division of ihe public lands among tbe
Slates; re affirming the Baltimore platform, Ate.
They also resolved to appoint four Delegates from
each Congressional Dm net to the Baltimore Na
tional Convention, who shall in that body sustain
the two-thuds rule, and be untrammelled In their
choice of a candidate for the Presidency, but vol
for such a one aa can command the grea tee
strength with the Democracy, and whose princi
ples are known to conform most strictly to the
cardinal tenets of the Democratic faith. No ad
dress was pat forth. '
VIEWS OF MR. DOUGLAS.
For ibe benefit of those "Southern Rights" men
that have been kibbling at tke bait thrown oat by
Senator Doogla'a, we copy the following extract
from a speech of the Honorable gentleman, deliv
ered in the Senate, on the 13th or March, 1850.
(See Congressional Globe, vol . xzii, page 369 ) ,
Mr. Douglas then and I here said ia iseveaee tp
the action of Congress upon tbe territorial ques
tion :
-IT IS NO VIOLATION OF SOUTHERN
RIGHTS TO PROHIBIT SLAVERY, frr of
Won hern rights, to leave the people to decide the
q oest loo for themselves. Co this case no geogra
phical section of the Union ia entitled to any
share of the terniories. The Senator from Snath
Carolina will therefore excuse rue for expirsjsiag
I hp opinion thaiali of his complaint under this
head are predicated upon one luodamen al error
the error of supposing that this particular ? e-
tioo bas a right lo have a due share of the territo-1
ries set apart aad assigned to it.
According to thia, Congress may, ia tbe opinion
of this aspiraqt to tbe Pffsidouey, prohibit iZoee
r9inUtc tarrUari$st and it is all right and proper !
It will be remembered, also, that Douglas did aot
support the Compromise treasures Jill after tbe
same were passed and were general y approved.

LETTER FROM CHEVALIER HULSE
MANN. . It is, perhaps, generally known, that this gen.
lieman, the Auatrian Charge, has recently been
on a visit to several of the Southern cities. Va
rious conjectures have keen indulged as to the
probable motive that led him to wander so far out
of the way of his diplomatic operatione; and
among others, it has been auggeated, by the Edi
tor of the Savannah News," (Mr. John M.
Cooper,) that be was impelled by some "ajfatr iu
enntr" although it were no compliment to an
American lady to suppose her capable of en
couraging such a demonstration on the part of the
representative of a ueama-JloggiMg" nation !
However these things may be. tbe speculation
of the newspapers have elicited the following let.

the "Savannah Newa :"

SALARY TO MEMBERS OP CONGRESS.
A bill has been introduced into Congress by
Mr. Fayette Melfullea. giving to menibera of
Congress a salary of 1500 a year iewtrsd orTthe
present allowance of 98 a day. It seems to us
that the subsMatioa of a fixed salary ft the pres
ent per diem would hve an excellent effect.-
We agree with tbe Sta union Spectator, thst h
will tend very much to shorten tbe sessions and
save a deal of money to tbe treasury.
It a obvious that some remedy ia demanded
for the was e of time and treasure ander tbe pres
ent system. Congress has degenerated iota a
political debating dob, fa which the claims of
Presidential aspirants are canvassed in the exclu
sion of the public business. There is no neeessi
ty for this Interference of Congress in a matter
which belongs properly to the people What a
commentary it affords upon the Republican theo
ry that tbe people aa well as elect their chief mag
tstrste! rhe members virtually take this business
out of the hands of their constituents by their
wire working iutpgnes had speeches hi every
session preceding a Presidential election. Were
a fixed salary adopted, short speeches would be
he qnler of the day, aad the affairs of the nation
would receive a ten tion, instead of members neg
lecting their own business and meddling with that
which belongs to other. AreftmonJ Republican.

TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
From the great decrease to the receipts of con
tributions to the National Monument during ibe
Jat six mootha, tbe Board of. Managers of the
MooamenC Aaaoctatioo eel it to be fjietr duty to
aoaxe another appeal to lbs patnotNta ar, tbe a
snarteav Pwbiie. They are unwilling tobe!ieva
hat the people of this ooataMry, ander aueb deep
and laating obligatioaa aa they are to the founder
ol their liberties, aod feeling aa tbsv most, a pro

In perpetuating hie aame lo the remotest agva of the
world, to remain uatinatbed for the wiat of itm
means necessary to complete it. - It need scarcely
be saggeated that a fact like thia in the history U
oar republic would aot Uil Vfi reflect lasting dis
credit aa the gratitade and patnolism of its citi
zens, and prove to the world that republics are too
apt tote forgetful of what ia doe to themselves
and tbe memory ot those who, ander Providence,
have mads tbem great, prosperous, and happy
It Is often tbe fate of the moat diatingunhed and
illastrious to be nearly forgotten alter they have
mouldered in the tomb, for half a century, la the
busy and evcr-chaoging scenes of the world ihe

whose acta excite the interest of, ihe living, .and
exclude the memory -tif euch aa bava preceded
ween inouga meir repatattoa may have bean
more brilluot and ihear deeds more glwiooa.
Bat It waa beloved that Washington was one to
whom the American people owed the greatest
aod most lasting debt of gratitude, and to whose
memory every honor should be paid by his coun
trymen ; that to honor him was but to honor
themselves, and that they were willing and desi
rous lo pay a just tribute to pre eminent patriot
ism and to unequalled public an private virtue.
Under thia impression, a society was established
some aevekteea yeara sg , ia ihe city of Wash
ington. for the purpose of erecting a tnagnificeat
monument to the Father o.f his Country : and
the Board of Managers of that society have, dur .
ing that long interval, made gratuitously every
effort in their power, from a pure feeling ol pa
motism and a uecire to honor hia memory, to ob
tain the means oecessarv ro aecomnliah ihe nb
jeel of its organization. By unceasing and un
tiring exertion iney nave succeeding In collecting
a sum sufficient only to carry ap the proposed
structure to an elevation of one hundred and five
feel above Ihe surface, about ooe fifth of iis in
tended elevation ; and they now regret to say
that, unless the contributions are larger and more
frequent than thev have been for the paat six
mouths, it will be impossible to continue tbe work
aay further. The blocks of stone which hate
been sent from the different Siates, associa'ions,
&C to be placed ia the monument, have done but
little to add to its elevation, though ibey may con
tribute to iU interest. That the dujIic mav un
derstand bow expensive such a structure must
necessarily be, it may be proper to stale that each
course of two feet in height costs upwards of
though executed with tbe strictest regard
lo economy. Tbe maieriabi and labor, with a
email annual comper.sanon allowed lo rhe super

tioned ; and ibe Board of Managers are well sat.
isfied that, had the work been undertaken by the
Government, it would have costdoubla the a-
roouct ot the present cost of the obeliA so far.
r rom two or three courses can be completed "in
a month, which require from four to six tbou
sand dollars, while the monthly contribution
have not averaged, for the past half year, more
than two thousand dollars. It will therefore be
obvious that ihe wrk mtMt necessarily be stop
pea ii a more arueoi ana patriotic reeling dees
not prevail among the people of this country, and
a more extended and liberal contribution be not
made. To show with what eae ibis a-reat ob
ject could be effected, it is only necessary to state
wai inree ;enis a neao Irom each white inhabi
tant of the United States would be sufficient to
complete the monument in a few years ; and yet
sncb sppears iu be the apathy and indifference ex'
isiiog iu relation to that noble under akiug thai
even thai small sum aaanot be o bunted for so pa
triotic and glorious a purpose.
In Norway, tbe three-foenhs of the amount nec
essary to erect a monusneei ia honor of Charles
the Twelfth was raised lately ay voluntary con
inbu ions in two days while in the republic of
the United States, brought into existence by the
valor, perseverance, energy, and patriotism of
V ashincion ; In a nation which now contains a
population of nearly twenty five millions of sou Is.
enjoying a freedom, independence nd prosperity
re. where else to be fouud, one-fifth only of the
amount required to complete a monument wor
thy of the man in whose honor.ii. ia now being
erected baa, after the most unceasing efforts A
seventeen years, been contributed. To the peo.
pie, tbe army aod navy, masonic, odd fellows, and
ether association, ihe Colleges, academies, aad
schools of ibe Uaned Siates ; banking institutuns,
city and town corporations, dtc applications ur
gently requesting pecuniary aid have been made
by circulars addre-sed to ali, and still the eou
iribatKMta received have been insufSeieat to raise
the monument beyoud its present elevatioa
This is a painful aad mortifying fact, it will now
become tbe duty of the different Stales of the Uo
ion lo show ibe interest they feel in this noble un
dertaking, aad to evince the estimation and res
pect ia which they hold rSe character and services
of Washington, by contributing to ibe completion
of bis monument, that the (States as well aa Ihe
people may have ihe honor of raisiug a structure

PENNSYLVANIA WHIG STATE CONVEN
TION. Harbxsecbo. March 25, 3 P. M The Wh g
State Convention of Pennsylvania met at 11 o'
clock th a morning, in the Hall of the House of
Representatives, and there waa a very full atten
dance of delegates. Mr Leech, of Armstrong
couniy. waa temporarily elected chairman, and
the convention was afterwards perma neatly or
gantzed by the election of th Hon. William Jes
sap, of Susquehanna county, as President, with
numerous Vice Presidents and Secretaries.
Mr. Jes-inp, on uking the chair, returned his
thanks, urging, in a forcible manner, the impor
lance of harmony and conciliation.
On motion of Mr Killinger, tbe convention
proceeded to vote aim voce for a Presidential

HON. WM- A. GRAHAM.
In our next Weekly edition, (provided weean
obtain the same by that time J it is our purpose
lo presen: to our Virginia and North Carolina
Whig friends, a superb aod perfect hkenessof the
Hon. Wm. A. Geaham. Of North Carolina, the
present able and efficient Secretary of tbe Nary.
Mr. Graham has been prominently men ioned in
connection with the orfice of Vice-Presideui he
has hosts f admirers and friends in Virginia and
his own Stale, who prefer him over s41 competi
tora for that office, and e do not doobt that tbe
offering which we intend to make next week, will
be most acceptable m all respects. Aor. Courier.
CT Some of ibe New Orleans papers are mak
ing themselves merry over the scenes of the De .
moctatic Convention at Baton Rouge. There
was great excitement upon the taking of the vote
of the body aa lo the preferred caodidtte for the
Presidency. The Crescent reports ihe following
scene between two gentlemen ambitious of nom
inating tbe earns person:
Jsdfs Walker Let us nroeeed witS a kL
ness I nominate for Presi
Mr. Clack, imnlorinalv Oh. no I Tt ma
do ii !
Judge Walker Foi President, Stephen A.
Douglas, of Illinois. Cheers.
Mr. Clack, roshinv forwrrff 1isa tha Aa,i
Mr. President, have I nor got the floor t
B . s a a is a m
juoge waixer.tn a -vary lood voice Has the
gentleman a ff timple right to the floor T
Mr. Clack, pointing to ibe floor aad looking as
fierce as a cock on his own dunghi I No, sir, I
have a standing right ! Then, lacing the entire
Convention, nnd stretching out his arms, much
like a concert singer, he made an effort, aa if to
shoot off the last bit of voice he had left Mr
President, I have been anticipated, bat I now nam
inate to ihe young democracy of Louisiana, Ste
phen A. Douglas, of Illinois. (Applause.)
ISlIf.A correspondent at our paper to-day, re
commends Mr. James W. Bryao, of New Berne,
to the District Convention "which is lo assemble
at Greenville, on the 5th Mav next, aa a suitable
person lo represent us in the Whig National Con
vention. We concur entirely with the- views ot
i he writer. Mr. Bryan is a gentleman of acknowl
edged ability, and of tried devotion to tha Whig
cause. He has rendered H effectual service to
times past, and his ebtiraa should not new be
overlooked. Judging from the readiness which
be haa always manifested to serve tbe party, We
csnnot bat think that be would aoepl tbe ap
poiotment it tendered to him.
GoLdeboro' TtUgraph.
The tone and spirit of ihe insolations passed
at tbe county meetiaga of the Whige throughout
Virginia are good moderate, reasonable, aad
conciliatory. Mr. Foxmobe is evidently the
choice of tbe Whigs in ihe State, but they are
willing to confer aud set together for ibe sueeeea
of t.be party, intimsiely connected, as they believe
itis, with the prosperity ef the country. We
hope to aee the same temper prevail among ihe
Whigs in all the States. JUxandria CSaxeUe,
