POLITICAL INTELLIGENCE. State Convention of the National Democracy. ‘The Ticket—State Committee, and Delega- tlom te the National Cenvention, &e., &e., &e. SECOND DAY. Furpay, August 24, 1855. ‘The Convention assembled at 84g o’cloek, A. M. Mr. Curmixa, of Erle, took the floor. He thought that ‘the introduction, last night, of Mr, Haskin’s resolution ‘€ondematory of the administration was inexpedient and ill-advised. In view of the fact that they had already repudiated the administration in the most emphatic man- ner, he thought this was too much in the nature of Kicking a dead dog. (Laughter.) They had had long and esultory speeches yesterday, but he hoped there woald de none to-day, and he moved that the consideration 0 Mr. Haskin’s resolution be indefinitely postponed, He wid not want to be bothered with resolutions tatroduced to gratify the spleen of this or that gentleman, Mr. Hype, of Steuben, moved, as am amendment, that the resolution of the gentleman from New York be referred ‘to the Committee on Resolutions. He did not want this convention to go out of their way to pass resolutions ngalnst the administration; but if there were any doubts of their sentiments on that ground, let them remove tha doubt. (Hear, hear.) ‘The question was put on Mr. Cotting’s motion, ani it ‘was adopted, So Mr. Haskin’s resolution was indefinitely postponed. Mr. Ccxtiy¢ moved that further debate on all questions de limited to five minutes, and that no person shall speak Awice on the same subject without consent of the House. ‘The question was put, and the motion was adopted, Mr. Dayua. B. Taynon made a short explanation, cor- secting the yote which he was understood to have given Yesterday against the resolutions. A delegate moved that the Committee on Resolutions be directed to retire and report officers for nomination, The motion was afterwards withdrawn. Mr. CurmxG, of Erie, hud endeavored to get at the opinion of members of the convention in respect to a re- rolution which he had prepared, and he tound that the general sentiment was in favor of it, It is proper that as far as we act, our action should be unanimous. We should have at the next National Democratic Convention un undivided front. We should not have one member there whom we cannot trust. He had therefore drawa up the following resolution:— Resolved, That a committee of three from each Judicial «istrict be appointed by the Chair to report to this con- ‘vention, for tts consideration, the names of four seleates ut large, and the names of two delegates from each of the Congressional districts, to represent this State in the next National Democratic Convention to be held at Cin- cinnati. ‘This resolution, said Mr. Cutting, contemplates that ‘this convention should nominate four delegates for the State at large, and two for the Congressional districts. He did not wish that election to go to the districts, He wished the delegates to the National Convention, one and all, to represent the sentiment of this convention, and he could not be sure of their doing so, if left to the dis- tricts to elect them. Mr. Rossiter, of Schoharie, rose to move an amend- ament to the resolution, It appeared to him that the choice of delegates to the National Convention should be made by delegates here from the ihn erg tes districts, und nol by delegates from the Judicial districts. ‘He therefore proposed to amend by substituting the word “congressional” for the word “Sodiet ‘The amendment was afterwards altered and accepted, that a committce be appointed of one from each Judicial district, to report the names of four delegates at large, and that the nomination of the Gongresalonal delegates he referred to the delegations from Congressional dis. ticts. Mr. Hasxix was opposed to this Convention taking the ‘ack track in the mode of appointing delegates to the National Convemion. They were not elected for this purpose. In the Albany Convention of 1848, the ap- pointment of delegates was referred to the Congres 1 districts, and such has since been the custom. He read a portion of the address issued by the Albany canvention in 1848, In his judgment, this Convention could not, on this occasion, properly select the delegates to the next tional Convention. He proposed the following resolu- von Resolved, That it is inexpedient and unauthorized to se- Ject delegates by this Convention to the next National De- mocratie Convention at Cincinnati ;and that the State Com- anittee be,and are hereby, requested to call a State Conven- tion of the national democracy, on the 8th day of Jauary next, at Albany, to consider the mode and adopt a plan for the sclection of a delegation from this State to. the Cincinnati Convention. Mr. Clarke, of Otsego, reminded the gentleman from Dew Work that in 1848 the main reason alleged agains the admission of the delegates at the Bultimore Conven- tion was that they had not the prestige of a State Con vention. . Mr. Barr, of New York, saw no reason why the resolu- tion of the gentleman from Erie (Mr Cutting) should not he adopted. They were sent here to make nominations and ‘transact such other business as may come before the Convention.” He did not intend that they should be deceived at the next National Convention a3 they hat een before. He did not intend that Daniel 8. Dickinson and the democrats of New York should be stabbed in the Dack again, by delegates professing to be Dickinson men Dut who were really not so. Mr. Brows, of Jefferson, rose to say that he heartily concurred in’ the original resolution, and he hoped the amendment would be voted down. It was generally de sired that this committee should nominate delegates to the national convention, Cries of “Question,”” “question.” Mr, Sickrms called for the reading of the resolatio It was again read. Mr. Sickigs reminded the convention, that the national democracy of this State had established the method of sending delegates to the national convention by election dy districts. re was an attempt at centralization im the resolution, and he was therefore opposed to it. But -even if there were not, he thought they were committed Dy usage and custom to leave the election of delegates to the people, It would be highly inexpedient for this con- Yentlon to he the frst to upset, that system which they themseves had initiated. It would put them in a false osition before the National Convention. Is it possible, ¢ said, that we cannot select thirty-four trustworthy and honest men out of the democratic party? In God’s name if we cannot, what sort of « party havo we got? He repudi- ated the imputation which that course of procedure was caloulated to throw upon the party. Mr. Bexnn, of Orange, did not feel authorized in the face of precedents to take out of the hands of the people dhe right fo name delegates to the ‘National Convention, He had no instructions from his constituents and did not know whom they might wish to send there. The demo. cracy of this State should not be distrusted, and this a tion would be practically evincing distrust. He hoped would not be carried out. Mr. Bare asked what chance the free democracy would have in the election against Custom House bullies’ Mr, Aitkey, of Kings county, was not afraid to leave the matter to his constituents ; but he knew how these elections were interfere! with in the city of New York by Custom House bullies, and therefore “he would sup port the resolution, Mr. Bencxy, of Kings, had no such instructions from his constituents, Melstyne, of Ulster county, was satisfied that the lution would but preferred that the resolution 1d be adopted as it was originally drawn up The question being on the amendment of Mr. Haskin, Mr. Bergen, of Kings, called for the yeas and nays ‘The list was called, and there were yeas 2}, nays 91. So the amendment was not adopted. ‘The question then recurred on the original resolution on which the yeas and nays were asket, but were not ordered, and it was adopted. The following persons were appointed by the Chair as such committee, to nominate four delegates and alter- nates from the Siate at large to the National Convention &th dist, —H.

Cutting, of Erie. ‘Ihe mention of the names of the delegates was re- ceived with approbation and much applause, ‘The nomination was confirmed. A resolution returning a vote of thanks to Me, Aa- gustus Schell for his services as temporary chairman, was introduced and unanimously adopted. Mr. 0. Bartuxzrt, of Broome, introduced the following resolution :— Resolved, That the vote of the Stateof New York shall be cast in the National Democratic Convention by the delegates now selected, ax a unit, and in accordance with the preference of a majority of the delegates. ‘The question was taken, and the resolution was passed hy acclamation. On motion, the vote for the Seventh Congress trict was reconsidered, and the name of Peter B. $ wassubstituted tor that of J. 5. Libbey. It was moved that the Secretary be directed to place the names of all the delegates to the convention to the address, unless specially requested not to do so Mr. UB, Tayton thought it was unnecessary to do so. ‘The address commenced, *‘ We, the delegates.” Mr, Haskin moved as un asnendment that the address be signed by the officers of the convention on behalf of the delegates. Judge CareRs regretted that there was aman in this convention who was ashamed to put his name to that address. He, for one, wished to have his name attached toit. He was as ready as any other man here to come intoa union, on principle, with the softs. But in his section of the country the softs had no principle. (Cheers.) We claim (he said) to be the honest demo- cracy of the United States, 1admit that the differences between ns and the sofis are unknown outside of our limits, But he knew that the national democracy had the sympathies of the South. (Applause.) When Mr, Sickles talked about defeat, he would tell him that the national democracy knew how to die, but never to yield— (applause)—never to give up the ship while there is « plank left upon it, He repeated, with much effect, a stanza, which he said he had heard Senator Jo nessee, apply to the prophecy made by an abol or respecting the diveful consequences to be appre- ded from the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill. It was an extempore exclamation of a native poet on vinit- ing the Mammoth Cave>— Mammoth Cave | 0, what a spot ! In summer coll—in winter hot | Great God Almighty ! what a wonder ! Andrew Jackson ! hell and thunder | (Roars of laughter.) Mr. Sickles (he said) had made a great Hourish, but no doubt he had an axe to grind as well as others. (Langhter.) Jet me tell the convention that they should carry a bold front, The soft shells are ving to baye some trouble in their convention, Many of be dolegnter do not belong to t rty. The softs now know that every act ierce has been a magnificent blunder, from the appointment. of his Pre mier to that of Gov. Reeder. (Applause.) He wanted to see the honest democracy purged of these “isms”? of the day; and the time has come wher, in his judgment, they—the hards—were to be aga‘n tile party in the state. He knew there were dolagates to. the soft ahell conven: tion who would vote for the repeal of the Nebraska act, and vote for censure on the Executive, who would vote for Fred, Douglass before they would vote for that na tional and immortal man, Daniel 2. Dickinson. (Great applause.) He did not himself blame Franklin Pierce so much as he blamed that great magician of his, William L. Marey. believed that the pro {this party were brighter than they had been for ten years, and. therefore they should repudiate coalition with free soflism, and with all thore recreant politicians, He hoped the ad- drest would be sigumd by ull the delegates Mr. D.

He was satiated that there was no thought of throwing any impediment in the way of the progress of t'10se principles which they professed.

Mr, Haskis had understood that there were edents for rigning all the names to the address. He would, therefore, not insist on his proposition.

He was in the candidate of the national democracy of New York. (Great applause.) But some of his friends here sought to ostracise those who differed th them in the mode of bringing his name before the democratic convention. Of that he complained, ‘They bad seen fit to doubt some of the truest and most reliable friends of Mr. Dickinson in the State of New York. He regretted that hie resolution against the Tafa. mous course of the administration was stifled here during his absence thi« morning. Mr. Berne, of Orange, took the floor, and male » very noisy speech, which seemed to tickle the Convention considerably. The gentleman used his lungs to some ef- fect, but still the delegates would comtinue, amid mach laughter, to shout “louder, louder.” r Judge Cares repeated lis disclaimer of intending to make a reflection upon Mr. Sickles, The question was taken on the amendment to have the address signed by the officers of the Convention, and it wae rejected ‘The question was then taken on the original motion. to have it signed by all the members, and it was carried unanimously Mr. Correv of Buffalo, deetined to net on the State Com in hiv place Thos.

Resolved, Th eerie rh |, That cons! ing the violation by the present federal adwinistration of the pleages cote wus it came into power, its close aftilistion with abolition and anti- slavery agitators of 1848, its wicked and senseless attacks upon the rights of the States, its beld usurpation using its great central power in controlling the local ¢l tions of.

Its support or ith friendship—considering its past conduct—-witl be found to be more dangerous than its open hostility. Mr. Haskin thought it imperatively necessary that this resolution should he passed by the Convention, and he hoped that the soft convention should not be allowed to anticipate or go beyond them in their condemnation of the executive, Mr. Narew amoved to postpone the resolution indefl- nitely. Mr. Hasnin culled for the yeas and nay’. Mr. Carsus appealed to the gentleman to withdcaw bis resolution, as if was clear he could not pass it, Ont of charity he’ hoped it would be withdrawn, Mr. Haskin respectfully insisted on the Couyention showing its sentiment om this resolution The question being on the motion to postpone indefi nitely, the yeas and nays were culled; and there were yens, 60; nays, 33.

He asked the gently mafn to do him the justice to state that that was the only instance he could charge him with. If he had said aoy- thing to give the gentleman offence he apologized. Mr. Haskin would meet the proposition of the gentle- man with equal frankness, He pardon of the gentleman and of the Convention if he was carried away by an impetuosity. But he had thought the imputation on his motives came with a bad grace from « gentleman who was looking for the office of Sheriff, and who was theretore desirous of fusion.

These Know Nothings | of filibusterism are generally the object of the sym- pathies of the American masses, who, besides, are psrfectly indifferent to whether they be hanged or strangled as soon as the regular authorities of the country which they desire to revolutionize, aunex or conquer, offer a successful resistance to them. But it is the common destiny of every pioneer of adven- tures who has not large battalions behind him to sustain his pretensions. That is a truth ever since the time of that “pirate, the scourer of the Agean sea, who replied 40 boldly and so truly to Alexander the Great, and it will doultless continue to bea truth so long as the reason of the strongest will continue to be the Lest, Some time ago the journals of the United States informed us of a plan of filibnsterism in junction, elaborated and combined by Colonels Walker and Kinney, to revolutionize Nicaragna by attacking it at two pee at onee—the Atlantic and Pacific. Colonel Watker is anold acquaintance of our readers. It is the same who, a y the of é rago, undertook to conquer provinces of ra and Lower California, and leclaring himself president of them by his own y, certain of negotiating at a future day their annexation to the American Union, in ease of the maintenaree of an independent authority be- ist charge for him, The Sonora but Col. Walker, who appears to in resources, was not discouraged by that; he nited the fragments of his troops aud proposed to them to attempt the conquest of Ni- caragua. This proposition was adopted by acclama- tion. Col. Walker's troop is composed of avout fifty | men. With that handful of adventurers he depart- ed from San Francisco aboard the brig Vesta. The American journals, which arrived by the last steam- er, inform us that the expedition entered into Rea- lejo without opposition, There the Yankee colonel appears to have found an accomplice in a Spanish general named Munoz, who gave him a reinforce- Ment of about two hundred men, at whose head Walker set off for San Juan del Sur_and disembark- ed at Breto, a little port situated at fourteen miles | from San Juan. The latest news from the expedi- | nition stops there. [Our readers will recollect that the party was defeated and dispersed at Rivas.—Ep.} But whilst Walker is invading Nicaragua by the west, Col. Retna who according to the plan’ con- certed between them, was to operate simultaneously on the eastern coast, has at length succeeded after a thousand obstacles in slipping between the fingers of the administration of the United States, which offered some litigious objections in respect to the legality of the prepared expedition. Kioney has, therefore, opyarieds but it is not known whether he has been able to collect a sufficient number of his iho abi on the shores of Nicaragua to go to meet valker without having to blush too much for the rmallness of his escort. The next mail will doubt- less give us news of them.

From the Austin has been issued and cirenlated in support of the peculiar views of Victor Considerant, who has had in contemplation for a number of years to better the condition, social, moral and polictical, of this far-off, Heaven deserted State, by bringing among ua a colony of European philotphers of a very peculiar character, who, in addition to the introduction of me- chanic arts among our rade Prople, design oceupying their leisure moments by illustrating the practical workings of divers new and improved social systems, The deep interest which this modern reformer mani- fests towards everything in America in geneval, and in Texas in particular, and the unsellishness’ with which he avows his willingness to bring his colony, with all their capital, ingenwity, industry, virtue, and vices, too, We suppose, and settle them in our midst, in consideration of a grant of our worthless lands, would excite ovr gratitude, if we were not convinced that quite a sufficiency of this description of better citizens reach our shores through the asual medium of emigration, without the aid of any special agent, and that European malcontents can spread the slow bat certain poison of their obnoxions principles quite rapidly enough for the good of this conntry, when they come singly and in couples, without this whole- sale importation. ‘The dissemination of any set of princ Jee antago- nistic to an existing government must inevitably decrease the strength and ase of that government, be it democratic or monarchical, in the same ratio that these principles find defenders and advocates. Wherever Anetinen: however preposterous and dea- trnetive to society, have been broached by men of mind, they have never failed to find disciples. This fact has been exemplified in the history of the world. Mahomet, struggling for years with but a handful of followers, in defence of the most ridicu- lons articles of faith, and in anage by no means more susceptible of being hood-winked than the prevent boasted era, «pread his peculiar doctrines over more than half the world, and overwhelmed in numbers the followers of the one true religion; and in our own day we have witnessed an association of ridiculous fanatics follow the leading strings of a modern Mahomet with a blindness equal to that of their Asiatic prototypes.

All the parties who met with losses were insured, except Mr. Benoist and Mr O'Rourke. Mr. Page was insured in the State Mutual to the amount of $5,000 on each of his buildings. The whole emount of damage done is estimated at about £25,000, on which there was $20,000 invurance, Except for the tremendous exertions of the firemen, the confln- gration must have been much more extensive than it Heveral accidents oecurred, one of which proved .

The antecedents of those Frenchmen, who have attempted to half-sole and heel-top society in days gone by, hold out anything but a flattering promise of their bettering our pre- sent condition.
