Democracy was held-in Exchange Place—it
' was the largest meeting held there for several
years, the square from Gay to South street be
ing completely filled with people at one time.
A neat stand, decorated with national ban
ner; and lights,..was erected near the head of
.Commerce :street, and the display of flags, ban
ners and transparencies from the several wards
was very fitte. `l'he - meetin; eras called to or=
der by Mr. J. G. W. Marriott, chairman of the

officers proposed and unanimously elected:

Secretaries—C. J. M. Gwinn, Washington
Yellott. John Stewart, 'Bolirer D. Daniels, and
The Bon. John Nelson briefly addressed the
assemblage, remarking that he had determined
in his own mind to take no part'
. in politics
again, but the present contest wasone in which
he copld not keep silent. He was quite severe
upon the "Know Nothings," characterising
them as nothing else but old whiggery in dis-
guise.
Benjamin C. Prestrmin, Fig., next addressed
the meeting in a fine speech, stating the objects
or purposes of the assembling there, and cau
terising the principles and designs of the new
political party in the freest manner.' He said
t e-, semecracy ma eao terms
Nothings"—with those who were attempting
to strike down political and religious liberty.
Charles J. M. Gwinn, Esq., followed' in one
oft - is eloquent addresses, iii which hi advo
cated toleration in peliticS and religion in the
ablest manner,- and challenged the 'friends of
the "Know STotbing' doctrines to meet hini
at any time and place on the hustings to dis
cuss the merits of theircreed before the people.
Col. Win. A. Spencer,' of Annapolis, closed
the meeting, is a speech of-some length, w hich
preyed very satisfactory to his- hearers. , It
was a difelice of Winoeracy agaiiist all assaults.
The. streakers were frequently interrupted by
applause. The'z,Leinhai•dt band was . present
and performed a number of national airs, aid
during the 'evening a beautiful display of fire
works was exhibited. The adjoining sqeare'S
were kept lighted up dining the night by large
bon-fires of hogsheads, barrels,'&c., collected
by the youngsters. and everything passed off
in the most agreeable manner.
Tim: END OF THE, Wontn.—The illillerites
have been holding a•series of meetings at Sy
racuse, N. Y., and have now fixed on the 19th
of May, 1855, as the day when the world will
positively come to an end.
Holloway's Pills.—The Pills prepared by
the celebrated Professor Holl6way, are one of
the greatest blessings ever discovered, for the
.alleviation - -of-certain departments, of human
misery. .Combining as they do . Eome.of the
-choicest 'offerings
„of: the Vegetable World,
concocted under the supervision and knowledge
of a - .highly scientific Gentleman, it ig not at all
strange that they have effected the most aston
ishing, Cures. For any of that numerous class
of complaints, growing out of an- impure state
of the blood, the Pills are marvellously•happy
and thorough in their action. There are few
-maladies which if treated early. will not, be
nipped in the bud' by this Medicine, while for
not a few, it is ayositive specific.—Boston Bee.
