Editor of the Washington Star: The Douglas men have agrecd on Charley Stuart, ex-Senator from Michigan, (whose ultra-abolition ceurse during the Lecompton controversy caused him to be repudiated by the Democrats of the Senate as 2 follower of Seward,) as their fugleman in the Convention, assisted by Bob Brent, of Baltimore, The Intelligencer deseants at length upon that prolific theme, ** The Territorial Question."* <—21e- IL There was quite 2 snow storm in New York yesterday afternoon hot—like that of New York fn August—and the excitement of all the surroundings makes its effect upon all who have come hither on this occasion from the Nortb, much more visible in their flushed countenances and quickly heating walks, than if they could do as Southerners usually do at this season, devote their time to the task of keeping as cool as possible. The upshot of the sudden change of bis remarks ne said he dissented from the views of some of his Republican associates on the subject of the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia. He trusted the men of this District would one day come forward and ask Congress to aid in freeing them from this institution, and when the proper time came, at the proper re- uest, and in the proper way, he would vote for the abolition of slavery in the District of Colum- rence. 2 The physician saysthat at Bellevue Hospital be | of the Sy rid.

So, you see that the influences pressing Lim (Douglas) here are made up of all the political odds and ends claiming atiiliation with the Democracy.

That is, about the platform embraced in the Senate’s Democratic caucus resolutions. Noses have been counted, and a majority of fifty votes for it are confidently calculated on by its advocates. We are all at sea with reference to the probable candidate. All on that head that is certainly known, is that Douglascannot in any event obtain a two-third vote of the Convention. Hence the evident desire of many of his supporters, in and outside of the Convention, to bave matters so managed, in the consideration and disposition of the platform question, as to drive from three to five Southern States out of the Convention before it begins to ballot for a Presidential nominee. They will, however, fail woefully in the accomplish ment of this trick; as the Democratic States will beat them (the Republican-party States) out cf water in making the platform. ALPHA. ee easier ig U7" The working women of New York, have recently held a meeting of sympathy for the female strikers at Lynn, Mass It was rather slimly attended and the collection taken up amounted to only $1 33. generally attended from the South without par- ticular invitation, and as if by accident S+ve-al speeches were made—all the speakers taking most extreme grounds against Douglas and squat- ter sovereignty. It is clear from what took place then and there, that Douglas has no show what- ever in the Southern camp; the views of John Forsyth, the Constitutionalist, and Alexander Stephens, who are regarded as the Douglas Southern missionaries, having no more weight with them than they would be likely to have in the Seward camp at Chicago, when the Repub- lican Conveution assembles there next month. The state of tixed determination on the part of the South not to abide the nomination of Douglas manifested in that meeting, is but of a piece with all | have seen since arriving here. Its etfects on the Nat'onals from the North is very great. ‘Thus, many Northern delegates who came here with secret or avowed leanings towards Douglas, are according to previous resolution, adjourned until Tuesday next, the ist day of May. Hovse.—Mr. Smith, of Va., rose to a point of order, charging Mr. Bingham with having libeled the State and the people of Virginia, in his speech of yesterday. He then read the portion of the speech referred to, which charged most of the people of Virginia’ with being narrow, bigoted, and selfish in their views, and that of this class be (Mr. Smith) was one. Mr. D. Smith desired the gentleman to retgact this offensive janguage, or otherwise he should denounce him as a willful calumniator. Mr. Bingham said the gentleman’s declaration was not likely to cause him to strike outa fact of of history. What he said he stood by.
