The late Baltimore Convention—Some of the Re- markable Doings there behind the Scenes—The Heavy Battle between the two New York Factions, and the Treaty of Peace—Gen. Scott’s Movements '* in Washington. Sore as the old fogics feol, sore as young America comes out of tho slaughter house at Baltimoro, there is still a show on all sides of prodigious satisfaction that eo excellent a man as Pierce has been nomi- nated. Yet this last Democratic National Conven- tion is probably the last that will be held in the United States for a good many years to como—seh is the deep disgust and mortification among the delegates at the undisguised plotting, bargnining, nid solling, whieh characterised the caucusing and juggling by which all the Prominent candidates were destroyed. me t any man ask Gen. Case ho R treatment which he received at the Raids Or pane America, and soo what hig answer will bo. Can it bo believed that cabinet ofifens, foreign missions, and custom house’ appointments, were offered at Balti- more by a certain new faction, for the support of their mon, and that man inthe convention? Is it pn generally known that committee rooms, bount tupplied with champagne, sherry, Saber ad key, &c., were free to all delogates, au it stu: delegates as were considered flexible, were ro into these places, and would not be let off with a refusal? All right, of eourse, bat still rather an edd way of consulting tho wishes of the deraouratio party of the United States. These things, and all | the other corrupt machinery by which the couvens tion wus tied wp, hund and foot, will be remembered hereafter. The baruburners and hunkers of New York, hor ever, now stand even; and they can harmonize, or ought, at least, to be disposed that way. Tho barnbayners defeated Cass in 1848; and Mr. Dickin- | fon unqnestionbly defeated toe nomination of Marey, tho barnyarner candidate, in 1352. nomination of M York delegation, A word from Mr. Divkinson in support ot Marcy would Lave nomimated him; bat Dickinson spoke and ioneeved the other way, ax Mr. Wise, of Virginia, can probably answer. The ex-Senator, doubtless, did xo exvetlent thing, in thus defeating # restoration of the corrupt rég? of Van Buren and company, The country will re | joice at it, and the credit Is due to Dickinson for | the whole of it. But it was necessary to strike balance between the two New York tactions. The Van Bureo branch defeated Cass in “43, sud the Cass-Dickinson wing fairly overthsow the Van Buren candidate in ’42—not in tho election, but in | the convention. Now they are eyon, both sides, We presume, aro sativted, and both will, doubtless, go into the cauvess in the best possible hugor with each other and the nomination. ‘They are all fine gry, from a four years fast, and they will unfte to divide the plunder. ‘Chere will be some serious aceusations brought against the democratic nominee very shortly, but they can be overcome.

Going into the poultry house, they set the hens to qaarvelling, by which wick Mr. und Mrs. Brower were enticed out of the house. Mrs. Bo went out first, in her night gown, to protect her chickens from the fangs, as she doubtless thought, of wild ts of pr i Gresming that thoy were prowling in human form, and that herself and husband were the objects of their bloody hunt.

This awakened suspicion and alarm, and soon the people of the country round about were roused, The first party arriving at the house found the prostrate bodies where the essail- ants left ihem; the husband dead and stiff, the wife exhibiting signs of life by an involuntary con- traction of her lower limbs.

One of the Ularkes was a son in-law of Collins. Two of the Clarkes were brothers, the thigd a cousin, and Hood we believe a relative. of the Clarkes and Hood are lads about s years of age.

The plot did not probably contem- plate that suspicion would light on the young mon, Collins and his four accomplices wore indicted, and he and Turner Clarke, the one who wielded the murderous club, were tried before the Greonup Cir- cuit Court last week.
