HISTOEY OF DEMOCRATIC! NA
TIONAL CONVENTIONS.
Tnr.r.n have liecn various nntl sundry
tinipn itlllll our ICeolIcCtloil, wllCll tllO
1 party In opposition to thu Democracy
1 conlltlt'iitly 11-scrtocl tlint It liadbccoitic
extinct as a political organization.
Doubtless, tlie wlsli was latncr to tlio
thought; for from tho days of Thomas
JeHersoii to tlie present, in all national
as well as in all Statu elections, the
Democrats have had candidates beforo
tlie people, with a distlnctlveavownl of
principle?, mostly with a (successful re
sult, nntl always with a powerful and
telling vote. It litis ever been n national
party, founded upon a strict construc
tion and faithful execution of nil thu
provisions and stipulations of tho Con
stitution Of tho United Stntcsi of courso
opposition to Its principles could only
eomo from parties who wero equally in
opposition to the Constitution Itself.
Hence, wo seo nt this time an organiza
tion nvowedly built upon tlio idea of a
higher law than tho Constitution; en
deavoring to carry out, at tho point of
thu bayonet, an unconstitutional object;
nnd In Congress, thommo party organ
ization repealing all the laws that con
flict with its notions, although sonio of
them weiuiipproved by PresidentWasli
Ington, and all of them have tho sanc
tion of tlio plain recuilrenu'iits of the or
ganic law.
In tho midst of such wliule.-alu de
partures from well-established princi
ples and toutid doctrines, it is most gin
tifylng to ilnd the old Democratic or
ganization steadily and consistently op
posing itself lo tho-o innovation", and
as out) man tiiging a return to the faith
and practice of the Fathers of the llu
public, and asking tho people, in view
of ils past history, to intrust it once
more with position and power. In view
of its prc-cnt standing beforo the coun
try, and as a preface to nn abstract of its
proceedings in the coining national con
vention, wo propose lo give a short
sketch of ull previuus Democratic Na
tional Conventions. Of couise, in an
article liko the present, it is liupossiblo
to give more than tlio most meagre
statement of the action of thu several
bodies, without entering at all into the
debates or giving the ii'-.olutionsiulopt-cd.
Nominations for President of thu
United States Vieie originally Hindu hy
the Democratic uiembein ot Congress,
assembled in caucus. Up to, and In
cluding that for IS" 1, such had been tho
uniform practice. Thu Democratic Can-
cih cantlldato of that year was William
11. Crawford, who was beaten by Juhn
(Juliicy Adams. Tlie eauctii system
grew out of favor niter this defeat, that
being one of the prevailing causes of tho
opposition to it; and Mi. Crawford was
the lust Demociatic caudid.ito iiomliiat
ed hy Congressional caucus.
(iciierol JacUsonJiiul been ncandidato
lu 1821, and his fiicnds had determined
to bring him forward again as a candi
date nt tho next election, Accordingly,
in 1828, without waiting for or desiring
any action on tlio part of tho members
of Congress, tlio peoplo.lu Stato conven
tions nnd mass meetings, tipmlnaU'd
Andrew Jtickpon lor President, nud
John V. Cnlhotin was Biipporteil for nnd
elected vice-President.
It being understood that General
Jackson would bo n candidate for reelec
tion In 1832, It bcfMmo necessary for tho
Democratic friend of Ills ndminlstra
tion to unito on n cantlldato for Vice
President to succeed Mr. Calhoun, who
had (lttarrellcd Avlth President Jackson
nud had also, in contefiuenco of his
course), fallen out of favor with tlio Do
mocracy. Tlio plan of a National
Convention was hit upon, and tho pro
position was started In Now-llamp
shire by tho Democratic members of tho
Legislature of that Slato,
It was responded to in nearly all of
the Slates, and tho first Democratic Niv
tlonul Convention fortho nomination of
President and Vice-Picsldent, was held
at Uiiltliuoio on Monday, May twenty
first, 13-'. It wns n complete success.
mid was attended by an Imuitiiso mini
her of pcoplo from all parts of tho Unit
ed States.
Mr. Sumner, of New-Hampshire,
callul tho Convention to order, nud
stand the object of the call, which
originated in his State. General
Itobert Lucas, of Ohln.wns chosen PresI
dent of tho Convention. Voiir Vleo
Prcslilonts mid tlirco Sccietarlra wcro

pare rules proposed tho celebrated two

The Convention, by u vote of twenty-

On Friday, the third day of tho ses-!

Vice-Presidents, nnd Secretaries. Tho
next day Martin Van Huron wn3 unan
imously ro-nomluated for President
but the Convention declined to mako

and very finely educated. About six
weeks ago she was taken dangerously
ill with what the family physician pro

days was so low tlmt all hopes of her
recovery wore given up. She rallied,
however, and, under careful nursing
and skillful treatment, she was in u fair
way to recover, when about two weoks
ago, -ho had a relapse, and sank rapid
ly, uiilil tho breath seemed toleavu her
body, and shu was pronounced n corpse.
Her body was prepared for tlie grave,
and preparations weru nmdo hy her be
