The whig State Convention, at Middletown, on the 30th August, was full and enthusiastic for Taylor and Fillmore. ‘The democratic State Convention is to be held at Hartiord on the 13th September, to nominate a Cass and Butler electoral ticket.

The Pitts- burgh Commercial Journal of 30th August, says; We have been shown an extract from a letter written by a democrat, of Clarion, to a friend 4n this city. We copy the following: “ Van Burea will run a jarge vote in thia county. We are all dividing off, for Taylor and Van Buren. Cass won’t do up here.” Clarion bas always been regarded as a “strong hold” of the democracy; but things look bad for them in that quarter now.

Movement or THE German Democnats in Favor or Mx. Van Buren anv Free Soit.—The St. Louis Repub lican gives the following extract from a German demo- cratic paper of considerable influence, published at Hermann, jn Missouri, which is supposed to speak the sentiments of the Germans in that quarter. It will be seen that the editor abandons the support of Cassand comes out for Van Buren. It will not, however, proba- Diy affect the vote of the State materially, but it may be covsidered important, as showing the views of the large German population, which controls the vote of several Western States, [From the Hermann Wochenblatt, August 19.] Our readers already know from a former declaration in eur paper, that we cannot coincide with that part of the democratic party which considers Srey inthe newly acquired territories, New Mexico and California, as possibly permissible—we will say admissible — ‘Cherefore, we cannot support for the presidency the candidate who is brought out by that party, as their reprerentative—we mean Mr. Cass; but we take side with that democratic party, called “radical demo- crate,” or barnburners, and who have put u; Nd Bu- e ren as their candidate for the presidency. fore, declare our approbation of the well-know: * mot proviso,” which heads the barnburners’ confes- s‘on, and lays down the principle, that in no part of the Union can slavery legally be introduced,—and we be- Neve Congress has a right te preclude, forever, by way of legislation, the possibility of the introduction of sla- yery into the thus far free, now annexed territories of Mexico. Cass disputes the power of Congress, and he thereby, together with the party he represents, puts himself in direct opposition to the acts and priclples of the fathers of our revolution, the author of the glo- rious Declaration of Independonce and the ordinance of 1787. whch forever excluded slavery from the great North-western territory, as it existed at that time.— Could it be-possibly brought about on the part of the radical democrats or barnburners in this State, to get ‘up a special ticket for precidential electors, we would be very much gratified; but if even this cannot be, we owe it to our principles and our dignity as republican citizens, openly to step forward with our opinion; as it could not be otherwise Sxpected of us, of those who know us, as well with regard to politics as with re- gardtoreligion With us. itis a matter always to re- main true to the principles we have proved—to con- fess them openly, no matter whether few or many share them withus. ‘The principles of radical demo- cracy, however, call upon us to stand on the side of the Wilmot proviso. \ VIRGINIA.

Tae Mormons ann Wuics.—The Mormons resi- @ing on the Missouri River, it is stated in the Iowa State Gazette, (a democratic paper,) voted at a pre- cinct called Kanesville, a few miles southwest of Coun- cil Bluffs. There votes, about 5¢0 in number, which ‘were all, or nearly all, given for the whig candidates, were rejected by the democratic inspectors or clerk, on the ground of illegality. The democratic paper referred to charges that the votes were given by the Mormons to the whigs for a consideration. The facts, as detailed, are somewhat curious. The Gaze/te, printed at Bur- lington, eays :— About.a month before the election, the celebrated Orson Hyde, by far the most influential man in the Mormon church, paid our town a visit. The object of his visit we will not undertake to declare j hut that, while here, he concluded a certain business transac- tion with one or Meld 2 eotatlady whigs at this place, by which papers were put into his possession, which he was ass would enable him to draw one thousand do)- Jase at Washington, is well known, and has beer - mitted by Hyde himself.

Th A telegraphic despatch has been sent to Jeffer. son Barrucke, Missouri, to remove the troops there (the second regiment of intantry, I believe) te New York. They will probably be transported by way of the lakes. Orders have been issued to Brigadier General Riley, the officer in command, to start wbout the middle of October tor Culifore nia, The steamers Ma asetts and Edith will carty upwards of four hundred of the regiment; other vessels are net yet provided. Some of the ¢fiicers will take their families with them to that far distant region, which they would not be able to do were the troops to proceed overland, as origi- nally desivned, We have heard, within the present week, of twenty or thirty young men in this city and here- abouts, who are making preparations to emigrate to California, Some cf eee will engage in busi- ness there, being provided with eapital ; the others will seek their fortunes, depending on their wits, which sometimes are as good as dollars. Since the President's retura from the Bedford and Bath Springs on Tuesday, two important acts have been performed hy him, viz: the transmission. of directions to law officers ‘of the government in New Orleans, St. Louis, and elsewhere, tocrushany incipient mensures which they may discover for the invasion of the territory of Mexico by the buffalo and, secondly, the pardon to-day ot Bryan Fraile, lately convicted and sentenced to two. years’ imprisonment in the penitentlary, for killing, with a brick bat, an paabsr ss boy, (who among others, had trespassed on the premises of Mr. C. L. Coltman. and got into a dispute and war- fare with Fraile, the guardian of the premises, on a Sabbath afterncon.) His Excellency has been exceedingly forgiving wuhin the last twenty months, having pardoned, in addition to the person Just mentioned, five others: Krause, for assaultmg and intending to kill Thrift, in Georgetown; Bar- nard, for similar, doings towards James ‘Hall; Hamilton and Williams for larceay, and H. H. Smith for forgery, T'his individual was occupied for a few months in teaching the convicts sacred music, having been a leader of a choir in a church. In all these cases the President has acted on the desire or recommendation of the Judge, district attorney, or those who served “asj jurymen, and other respectable citizens, Thus " were these persons bereft of a residence in the district penitentiary; but there was no_at- tempt to procure a pardon for the black tellow who was eentenced to six wesks confinement in jail for ‘*borrowing,” or stealing, a rusty saw, of the alleged value of one dollar! In these enlight- ened days, there should be established some stan- dara by which to measure the enormity of offences. ‘The * Rough and Ready Club” held a meetin; last night at their rendezvous, the “ little band- to the war—death to all hopes of territory—death to the ad death to the democratic party.” Lincoln remarked, would be seen the solici the writer “to keep together a rotten party to elect a rotten President.” Cass had received from the public treasury two hundred and twenty thousand dollars, General and the services of the latter were o more value than those of the former. eccount: Cass’s was charges, and Taylor’s Lincoln argued that Mr. Swartwout stood before the community with purer hands than Gen. Cass ; for Swartwout borrowed the money, thinking that he could return it at some future time without the loan being discovered, while Cass systematically set himself to work to draw money from the crib, without the i and of years matured into a “fixed fact.” box,” fitted up as the Olympic Theatre, by Kil- miste, near Blackwell’s hotel. We had, for the first time, a comfortable seat in the%parquette, and enjoyed the performances gratuitously, Mr. Brady, a member of Congress for Pennsylvania, was upon the stage, speaking a good word for old Zach., and about the brilliant politcal prospects of the whig party. He thought, however, that victory would not inure, without a determined and con- centrated effort, as they had to contend against a foe well disciplined, and supported by the patron- ege of the federal government. Mr. Lincoln, another member, froin Illinois, addressed the au- dience from a table near a side wing, and, in the course of his remarks, said, without any qualifi- cation whatever, that the administration sent er- ders to long John Wentworth’s district, previous to the late election in that State, to have him de- feated, even though a whig should be returned to Congress in his place. — If this be not go, there should be an official contradiction of the atate- ment. With all the characteristic mimicry of a genuine Sucker, Mr. Lincoln related several anecdotes, in ridicule of the efforts, as he said, of Gen. Cass to occupy two positions at once. There was in the Western country a man with ahare- lip, and on several occasions he took advantage of the defect of speech which this malformation pro- duced. | As an instance, the man was at a cock faght, and bet a quarter on the high comb cock, sayi to himself, as the battle progressed, “ Quarter on the high comb cock,” ‘ quarter on the high comb cock,” etc. Mr. Lincoln spoke in an assumed tone, in imitation of the hair-lip sportsman, and he bent his long body, and made earnest gestures, as though the feathered fighters were actually be- fore him, and he appeared to be excited to the highest point of enthusiasm. Anon, the low comb cock began to get the advantage, and the better commenced changing the tune: juarter on the low comb cock,” “Quarter on the low comb cock,” ete. After the high comb cock had been “in death laid low,” the man with the hair-lip, said, with dey, “I’ve won the quarter.” “ Won. the quarter!” exclaimed the antagonist; “ you're a liar; you bet on the high comb cock !? ‘*You’re another har ; 1 bet on the low comb all the time, from the jump ” When the laughter, in some measure, subsided, Mr. Lincoln said that was the way with General Cass; he was just as’ consistent from the jump! He read the recently published lester of this gentleman to R. S. Wilson, in which this passage occurs—“ The Wilmot pro- viso will not pass the Senate.
