At one time the number present amounted to forty, but it did not at any time get above that. The President was Jacob Townsend—Vice President, Dr. Isaac Smith, and Mr. L. Prall acted as Secretury. There was a considerable time expended in or- gavizing the meeting. Whenthis was accomplish- ed, the first business brought up was the reconside- ration of the resolution of the Uuea Convention, whichis as tallow: ‘That the Convention deem it to be their duty to nomi- nate cundida‘es for the offices of Governor and Lieuten- ant Governor cf this State, to be supported by the Amer- ican Republican party at the coming election.” Mr. Oaxtxy moved the tollowing resolution :— Resolved, That the rusolution adepted at the Utica State Conven ion, held on the 11th, in favor of nominaung candidates for Gevernor aad Lieutenant Governor of this Suite, to be supported by the American Kepublican par- ty, be reconsidered, Mr. E. W. Curse addyessed the convention in a half hours spogch, in which he argued torcibly against the nomination of candidates, Mr. Wanvau1 followed.—He was for having their own candidates, without looking entirely to the question of success ; if people aever nominated except when certain to elect, their policy would be not much like that of Na- poleou, or Washington und others, who, though victors at last, sometimes got a sound «licking. After surmount ing what they did, they should not ;be scared. ‘They had created the giea'est agitation, and won the greatest Victo- ry in this city—they had been at the expeuse of spilling some blood in Philadelphia in defence of their rights, and it was not for them to sluck their hand, or procrastinate now, when the people werein astate of excitement and aliveto the issue. I'his was the very time for action, if they wanted to carry the State two years hence No par- ty ever fought harder than the American Republican par- ty, or more successfully last spring. Yet, throngh want of zeal, and energy and agitation, no party heid meetings so poorly attended, He looked around him and saw men with broad sheulders and courageous hearts, who were decried and snathamatized by the old parties, and we would ask them if they would be their tools, or vote for their candidates; he demanded of them whether they would not im in going for their own ticket, the whole ticket, and nothing but the ticket ? Mr. Oaxey moved that speekera should be limited to Aes minutes, that their might be no speaking against time. Sxverat Voices—"' No, no ;” “let every one atate bis opinions ;” ‘make it half an hour if you like,” &e. Mr Oaxver withdrew the motion, and proceeded to re- py to Mr. Wandall, He coincided with the picture drawn y that gentleman, of what the American Republic: party should, nay, would become, but in the face uf this lattering view ot the party, they should not be carried away by a false excitement; they should not be rash, but remember that there were other parties, and other principles to contend with. He thought that it could be easily proved that that Conveution possesse’ no right to nominate candidates, and he asked who would not revolt and kick against the assertion that the representatives of four out of thirteen wards of thus city could assume such power ; and he would ask further, what right had the city of New York, even if it possessed the one-eighth ot the aggregate ticket to nominate jor the whole State ?— ‘Trush, although crushed, wonld rise again, and however it might be shrouded from the vision of the people, it would at last shine forth For his part, he would vote for no man but he who endorsed the principles of the Ameri- can Republicans. However great the man was—be he Clay, Jackson, or Wright, he would not go for any of them, or with any man who was not an Ameriaan Ke- publican atheart. (Applause.) He asked the gentleman who spoke last, as a man,were the msjority of their party for nominating candidates for the offices of Governor and Lieutenant Governor ? ention. believe in my conscience, they Mr. Oaxuey continued to say, that however warmly his feelings were engaged, he was pr. pared to bow tu the will of the majority; if they must nominate, in God’s name, let them doit agreeably with the principles of the American Republican Party; and when he recollected that they were to be supported from the ranks of other parties, composed of men who had their opinions made up, he felt they could not be too cool—too foreseeing, knowing that there was a possibility of going ahead tuo gist. and proteins the mark. The people of New ‘ork were not pre] with means—with money for a compaign this full; but if they had it, they cuaid rig oat the most beautitul political ship that ever floated trium- phant over every obstacle; they could, with heart and soul, bid defiance, as they did last spi Lf to ali antago- nists, It was their present duty te work cautiously—to first project the road—to lay the rails—to put the cars in the track; and then, if warranted by circumstances, it bree be easy to build the depot, aud carry ail into com jetion. Dr Sara replied.—So long os they waited the means would be still wanting; whereas, if they nominated and put into operation a ayatem of action, and zealous und wide-spread agitation, , would meet with plenty of i }, with both the willand the means to carry on the rolutions never went back. (A member here made some observation). Dr. S, would put the gentleman in mind that he had a head—an American head—thet he thought for himsclf, and as he recognized the right of freedom of thought and speech in all, he thought it was due to courtesy not to doubt a gentleman's word. Jt was asked whut concern they had in no- minating a governor, to which he would reply, that it was to contribute to carry out their principles, and it could not be denied that it would do so. As to those wards where resolutions were carried against nomina- tion, it was done without deliberation or proper consider- ation. He could answer for his own ward, the 14th, that it would not do so. Whilst it was true that the delegate from Kings county was instructed to vote against the no- mination, he could not help contrasting that case with another of thvir friend from the western part of the State, to be a man of common Dr. Smith pointed ont the awkwurdness of the porition which the American re- publican party would occapy at the polls, where without candidates, or definitely expressed op pions upou the great leading question, they would fail into the hends of the highest bidder, and referred to a certain ward meet- ing where a resolution was offered by a man called Ha- zleton, that it was not expedient to have a nomination,” which killed the body there. Ifthey did the same there, they might go home ond deem it expedient to stay there IC they called public meeting, they would have one of the greatest assemblies ever held in New York. He would vouch for Rochester, and he counselled all to buckle on their armor. it would seem that the principal difficulty with the other side, was the fear of offending either of the two old political parties Me Aves of Kings county, got up to bring their atten tion to some words that dropped from the last speaker de be nai to Kings county. . 8mitH hoped no such construction would b> put upon his expression. Mr. Ames put him in miod of his remarks about the common sense of not instructing a delegate, as Kings coun'y did him. Dr. Sara understood in Passipnnt—You in warmly protested against his being or to suppress your feel ings. te. Ames—I am not used to get warm in debate, sir— Puxsioant—Th» gentleman has made an explanation, And that is sufficient. Mr. Aates— Well, then, let us approach the question. He proceeded then to review the composition and views of the party inhisown county, observing that it was vo-thirds derived from the whigs,and one third from the democrats They were both tuvorable to t cause, bot not yet ready, especially in the present ju ire of pub- lic Wffuirs, to give up their own. He belived that the American Republican party could not get 2600 votes in the whole State, (Expressions of dissent, and cries of “You cau get twice as many inthis city.”) He could not believe it, for there were a number of men who were yet only ‘huif their's—who wished to go through with the present contest Again, that convention was only @ small fractional part of this State. When wos the cities of Buffalo, Rochester, Utica, and Albany, repre- sunted? ‘There could be no suflicient answer to their nall body assuming the foundation of nominating for the whole State, and im defiance of the two ort parties ; for 1g a0 they were like the dog who leaped at his wand jet go his substantial prey ; they, (oo, grasy- iq at too much, would Jose the bone. ‘Nor could he up derstand how by'a nominating a Governor, they organized the State. That must be dune in every city and town by holding mactings, appointing speakers, and they hed not ‘of doing se thie fall. Until they could, let them hold their ground, and secare the local elections, otherwise in 1846 the party would ge down, down, unable ever to rally again—the superstructure would topple over from its bad foundation, and be scattered to the four wind The assembly here adjourned after numerous raotions on the subject, till four o’clock, P. M., it then being two APTERNooN Sxsston—Fovr O’Crock. The attendance was hardly equal to that of the former meeting, the call of the roll only showing those present to be fifteen. Dr. Smrru, V.P., took the chair, and called the meeting to order. Upon motion of Mr. Oaxuey, “ the reporter sent by Mr. Bennett to give, he had no doubt, impar- tial notes of the proceedings,” was invited to take a seat at the table. Mr. Baunpaan, of New York, said he had been consider. morning by both parties, and was more ced that a nomination was necessary. hether they obtained their ot ject or not, and in nomin: ig they atdo more th was probable, Their existence was involved in that rtep; and it was not for them who increased last spring 9,000 to 26 000 to put their hand to the plough and th back again, What had they to lose? Surely not thwir reputation—for that was good. They would jet the people know that they were still inexistence, und be maintained they bad everything to gain and nothing to lose. He did not find in his experence that much talked of attachment to the old parties throughout the Stata— quite the cont: —the term Native American carried a charm in it; and if their candidate was a good mon, as their principles were good, they would meet the warm- ¢-t approval of the country. Mr. Ames entoroed the necessity of arguing from cor. rect premises ; and said it would be wrong to forget that the pop: ported by ernment, a part jealousy of that usurping sect, the Cathol: mace the religious part of the community rise support : enforce upon them the injustice of their goivg forward as & party, whilat they had no alleged principles upon seve. ral leading questions—such as Protection, Texas, a Bank. Mr. Lowssenp contended that they were under an eb- ligation to nominate, for their mission as delegates to Utica imptied it. He repudiated all connection with the old parti ud from such ai would say, ‘Lord deliver us” was in the decline of life, in the course of which he was not prominent as a politician, but he would give his vote joyfully for their candidute, caring us little tor the opinion of whig or democrat as they did for him. Mr. Wanpaut followed in a strong pro nomination speech, and crew aspirited picture of the fix their party oat be in at the next eleotion without a ticket of their Mr. Warxixe followed, ond urged upon them the ex- pediency of having their nominees. Success was pro- gressive, and the candidate shouid be in the field They had already thirteen counties, and before the fall they would have as many more.

The people of Baltimore are mad, absolutely— positively mad—upon the subject of politics. Men, women, and children, of all conditions of life, en- ter into it with an infatuation, such as we have never before seen exhibited. The merchant leaves his goods—the mechanic his shop—the lawyer his client—the doctor his patient, and the patient his physic, to join in and swell the influence of their respective parties, each of which give evidence of a determination to do their bes!, or worst, to defeat their epponents, Language cannot exaggerate the ridiculous pitch to which the people of this eity have at length arrived—nor the probable misery resuiting to hundreds of the families of mechanics, from neglect ot business. Drinking, frolicing, and singing— boys loiter on their way to school, to hear the news—young ladies play nothing but grand marches— butchers lay aside their} lucks and pork steaks, and minis.ers preach extempore sermons from the want of time to write them. Every night (excepting the Sabbeth), from sunset till midnig'it, drums, fites, horns, and watchmen’s rattles, are to be heard, and every succeeding morning find ab- sent clerks and apprentices—iuil watch houses— aching heads—black eyes—bloody noses, aud empty pockets. It is impossible to ‘say, from ap- pearances, which of the two parties is the stronger he whig party makes more noise, and spends more money, and in all probability counts the greater number, uuless, es their own friends believe and acknowledge, their cause in Maryland, as well as other portions of the United States, has been injur- ed by the impolitic and unjust course of a poruon of their frieads in New York and Philadelphia, im getting up the “Native American” mania; still, they spare no effort in attempting to rally. Night after night, in continued succession, the streets ure filled with processions, while the shops, dwellings, and even the trees are illuminated, in such a man- ner as to produce a most enchanting efleci. Through Market street, and the streets in the vi- cinity, the windows of the houses are decorated with bonquets, wreaths of flowers, and other orna- ments, which are relieved by the brilliant light of thousands of lamps and candles. Stich is not the case for one or two nights only, but it is continued without intercession, and the infatuation is gaining strength daily. The meeting held by the whigs on the night of Tuesday, 17th inst., was very enthusi- astio. On the occasion, allthat portion of Market street, from Fall’s Bridge to several blocks above Dz. Breckenridges’ church, and even up and down the crose streets in the immediate neighborhood, the buildings were illuminated and decorated in the most costly manner. On one side of Market street a staging was erected, testooned with fla banners, &c., and hung round with paintings und engravings. Ou the other side was raived for the “Glee Club,” a platform, over the top of which was placed, close together, and in rows, many hun- dred sperm candles, which, together withthe other illuminations—the music—the singing—the squal- ling and swearing, produced a sort of a seriv-co- mico effect. And yet, notwithstanding the thou- sands ot dollars nightly expended for the promotion of their cause, we much doubt their success, and believe they are making a deeperate but hopeless effort, to bolster up their party, by giving a graud flourish, by coming the “bluff game,” or a sort of “ Sound the trumpet! beat the drmm! Tremble, Polk ! we come ! we come!” In the mean time the democrats remain at home, mind their business, and provide for their families, sutisfied, like sensible men, to await the day of election, avd then without noise, tumult, or dis- turbance, cast in their votes. Among the most prominent whig speakers who have been canvass ing Baltimore. are Preston of S C , Stanley of N.C., and Reverdy Johnson of our city. Johoson isa powerful speaker, an effective speaker; having to contend against the disadvantage of a poor voice, he manages to intioduce such subtle reasoning, and force it upon his hearers in such a winning manner, as to carry with him the admiration of even those who at once detect his motive, With what curtning he attempts to work upon the feel- ings of the laboring man, With what affection he wheedles his brother shoemaker, his brother tai- lor, and all his other brothers. Aye, the family of Reverdy has increased since thejiliuminations com menced; his prodigal sons have returned; the very scamps who but a lew years since pulled down his house about his ears, and who would have skinned him alive had they caught him, now listen to him with the most devout attention, and after hav- ing retused at least a hundred times to allow him to address a publie meeting, suddenly begin to think him, notwithstanding all his faults, too great an acquisition to lose. In the “Clipper” of Saturday, we observed, under the head of ‘‘ City intelligence,” that the schooner Dart, a trim little veseel just completed for the house of Augustin, Heard & Co, of Canton, lett Baltimore on twat day for the above place, and took with her as passenger Wiiliam -D. Lewis, Esq., of New York. She was built in Baltimore, ate isto remain in China to be used by her owners as acraiser. Her departure attracted considerable attention, as ehe is said to be the smallest vessel that has ever lett this port for so long a voyage. The theatres here still remain closed. Mayer, Owens, Gallagher, Miss Ludlow, and Mrs. Kussell, all of whom are clever performers, are now ful- filling an engagement with Mr. Peale, of the Bal- timore Museuin. ARIBL.
