commerce in the way of legislation conducted
at the political capital of New York, the ?Id.

government - is ' a ,v,ast , laboratory in
"which
which
ev,ory MiitieivAhle 'and inconceivable project
,is cotnpennded for the purpose of promoting
`individual, interests. The high; city. official
who la,. milt •a, jobber is an exception to a
'rinivOrsal zule,, and , he who leaVes office a
poor Man -is made an object of ridicule. In
fact; 'most of the managing men of all parties,
articularly in the city of New, York, seem to
agree anent system that all gOvernments are
so" many geese to ,bi Plucked, by the sharp
'ones. That which tbey.illuitrate in their do-
Molie politics, they continually, carry out in
their connection with the General Govern

pristh •at the persevering • efforts of cer
tain' of ' these traffickers to bring about a
fllsien of :the, frienda of 1313VOISIXRIDGE;of the'

Joni Wattrwouriee extreme manifesto, corn

he takes ultra ground against the South and
threatens a war upon Southern institutions, ie
generally repudiated by the Republicans here.
It is elated that Wintrwoarn really desires the de
feat of Liscoonw, and to this end has prepared the
recent editorials in his paper. I learn from the
highest authoritylt le intended to 'announce that
Mr. l'irnarwourit is not Mmmissioned to epeak
for Mr. LYNCOLN: :oiirtain it is, that if the senti
ments contained' inVatcrwourres articles ere ac
cepted by the Republican candidate' for the Prod
decoy, It 'will greatly Interfere - with his,ohames of

Littman in Washington are earnest_ in declaring
that if he should be elevated to the Presidency, his
Administration would be so conservative that in
six months after hie inauguration no man would be
found objecting to it on account of the slavery

GE.EAT ENTHUSIASM
THE ELECTION OF DOUGLAS AND JOHN-
SON PariiICTED.
TIME UNTERRIFIED IN THE FIELD FOR
SUCCESS.
Ei.P.EM02131313, Bs O.
A large and enthusiastic meeting of the true De
mocracy of Philadelphia, favorable to the elution
Douglas, Johnson, and Foster—the regular nomi
neon of the Democratio party—was hold last even
ing at the room of the Demooratio Asooolatlon, at
the northwest corner of Fifth end Chestnut streets.
The oecasion was the inauguration of the above
plane for political purposes during the present cam.
palgn, and from the interest evinced in the pro
(=dingo last evening, it is evident that the Demo
orate of Philadelphia are fully aroused to the Im•
portanoe involved in this contest.
. _
Ailkalf past toirea. &clack fhb assemblage was
called to order by Mr William V. McGrath, the
president of the association, who, atter stating the
object for which they had convened, introduced
Henry Handers, Esq., of the Twenty-seeond ward,
of this city, ,
Mr. Flanders was greeted with enthusiastic,
Apelairs° and, after it had enbsided, said be would
detain ;hem but for a few momenta. There
was, substantially, but a single question before the
Democratic party at the present time, and to that
he would briefly address himself Oar forces are
•diyided ; whose flag shall we fellow I That was a
question every than must determine for himself,
but, speaking for myself, said the speaker, through
good report or through evil report. for victory or
for defeat, lam for Stephen A, Douglas. [Loud
and continued cheering.] Before the Convention
assembled at Baltimore they might have doubted
the expedience , of his nomination, but the delegates
to that body; the representatives of the people, the
Men Who were anthorited to eat. determined other
wide, and they were bound to abide by their deci
sion. Some might Ray, if the j+ pleseed, that their
notion was impolitic, nevertheless they were a ma
joritv of the regularly-constituted Convention of
, the National Democracy, and their candidate sod
their platform are, therefore, entitled to the sup
port of every Democrat who acknowledges the
three of batty Obligations. [Applause ]
In the Vendee( speech whin Mr. Buchanan
I made the other evening at Wasbington, be ores
oonscious that Brookinridge was not regularly nomi
nated, and contended that Douglas was in the
name predicament, because ho had not received
two-thirds of the voice of the whole Convention
Houghs, however, received not only two-thirds.
but nine-teethe of the votes of the delegates who
reetteified attar the seceders left the Convention
[Cheers.] lilt were necessary that a candidate
should receive tdo-thirds of a convention It would
always ho in the power of a factious minority to
break up a body of ,that kind by simply withdraw
ing tberefrom. The otdinatv chit is that a
quorum only is heeessarel to trainiaot business.
The speaker proceeded at length to denounce the
Seceders, repudiated their action in withdrawing
from the National Convention at Baltimore, and
contended that Breollinridge was no more regular
le, nominated than Ven Buren was, when he
heeded ,the standard of revolt evilest General
Cass in 1849 • It needed no peptise to foretell that
the star of Brookinridge, the Disdain candidate,
would sink forever beneath the gloom of the No
voucher sky. [Cheers.]
What strange god do the Seceders call upon no to
fall down- and worship? We acknowledge that
the fluent is entitled to equal justice and rights
with the North. We are called upon now, how
ever, by the slave-drivers of the south, to go before
the people and toll them that the doctrine of non
intervention, which was truth and justice in ISM
is now a cheat mid a delusion ; that, although it
Was saving grace in the last Presidential content,
it le ilegrant eon in the present one Upon what
ground era we onlied upon to surrender the post
Lion that the Democratic party has held for the last
twelve years I Why, Immune the slaveholders are
anlrlol2s to have the power to remove their negroes
from the (ettor), rice, and th e w ileitis of their aeo
lion to the boundless prairies of the Weet. If we
should agree to intervention by Congress to pro
teat Slavery, the only practical effect would be to
suffer inevitable defeat, and to break up the De
moeratio party. The speaker regarded the action
of the Supreme Court In the Dred Scott ease as not
decisive authority. The question of 'slavery in
the Federal territory was not before the oourt at
that time, and any , opinion the judges thought
proper to express in reference' to it wait entitled
to no more weight than that of any other body of
intelligent , gentlemen . (Applause ] Let tis ad
here to our former doctrine until the Supreme
Court, in a proper ease, shall decide that the doc
trine of protection for slavery in the Territories
is lawful and right; and, depend upon it, they
never Will arrive at that determination. The pre
tension that slaves are property in the same sante
as money or merokandise, end entitled to the same
kind of protection that is extended to every other
species of property, 18 at war with all our past
history, and with the principles laid down by
our forefathers in the formation of the Con
etitution. Slavery is, what the Southern people
— Wnerifere . dry nette g getrigilAteB-4Bile qle......con,tilu
taken to return them to their owners, in the the i 1
of their absconding, as would be extended to a
' muter in search of a runaway apprentice. If
slaves are property the same as coal and iron, or
any other commodity, as Mr. Buchanan asserted
the other evening, how does it happen that threa
t:lf-the of them are represented in the lower branch
of Congress? Tho South never regarded their
slaves in the Helot of Mere goods in the days of
Washington. Jefferson, and the other great oharao
tore of the Revolution. They went down into their
graves in profound ignorance of this doctrine, and
it le clearly one of modern invention, brought
into being within the last few years. It is con
trary to the Demooratio creed, and, like counter
feit coin, ehould be driven from circulation.
[Cheers.]
What so the main difference between the Repub
licans and the Seceders? It is not a difference as
to principle at nil, it is merely a difference as to
the application of a principle which le common to
them both. The Republicans say that the people
of the Territories shall not have slavery, even If
they.want it, while tho Seceders oontond that they
abetl have it, whether they want it or not. The lat
ter partysay that if the people of a Territory desire
to get rid of it Congress must intervene, and fasten
it upon them inevitably; while the former assert
that Congress most intervene to prohibit it from
the Territories. I am, therefore, opposed to both
the Republican and the Seoessionist Congressional
struggles upon the subject of slavery, which can ,
but lend us into the unfathomable sea of disunion 1
The Reading Convention threw the flag of non
intervention to the breeze, and every man who
supports Mr. Foster, the Democratic candidate for
Governor, declares that he is in favor of that doc
trine. [Applause ] How, then, can any man who
supports Mr. Foster vote for Brookinridge? Is
Democracy one thing In Pennsylvania, and an
other thing in the country at large? Does Renee
non-intervention in Pennsylvania, and interven
tion everywhere else f I thank you for your kind
attention, fellow-citizens', and invoke every one of
you to come out manfully, and vote for Stephen A
Douglas, the regularly nominated candidate of the
Democratic party. [Long-continued applause.]
The following resolutions were then read and
unanimously adopted:
IVhereas, The State Central Committee being
guilty of treason to tho party, by atternpting.to
disorganize and to destroy Its integrity, it became
an act of imperative necessity to assemble in macs
convention in Harrisburg on the Nth July, in as

L'eedeed, That such an offer could not have
emanated from any other motive but that of

a revolutionary, disorganiziog,and cowardly junto,
whose Rims would palpably be rule or rain.
Resolved, That Stephen A. Houghs. and Her

cording to Democratic usagee; we, the Democratic
oitizena of Philadelphia, are determined to Ur% all
and every fair means to elect them to the re

Indignation Meeting of the Exctmion
ists to the Great Eastern.
Last 'evening, a meeting was called at the Ton
Hall, in Third street, below Noble, of those pee
mongers who had purchased tickets for en excursion
on board the steamboat John A. Warner, to
Cape May and the Great Eastern," on Tuesday
last, the 31st ult., and who were left on board the
Great Eastern, or at Cape May. About forty per
sons were present Mr. Otto Maas presided, and
F. A. Parker sated as secretary.
Mr. Maas. on taking the chair, stated that he
was not one of those persons who had been left et
Cape May, or on board the Greet Eastern, but that
was owing to his dexterity in jumping on board the
steamboat George Washington, which took him to
Cape May. and he was thus enabled to get en
board the Warner in time to be brought to Phila
delphia on Tuesday evening. Mr. M. gave a de
tailed statement of the whole occurrence, from
which it appeared tbat the excursionists bought
tickets at Adams' express oboe. in Chestnut street,
for the excursion. Mr. Mans exhibited one of these
tickets, which read ns follows:
ExctlaSlON TICKET.
STNAISIXR JOHN .1 WAI4IOII.
CAPE MAY AND THE GREAT EASTERN.
Tuesday, July Slat, M.

f Fire- fir," Bun Building
Mr. Mass contended that this ticket entitled the
holder to a passage to Cape /Hey and the Great
Eastern, and from thence to the city. But, said
be how wore the passengers treated? They were
taken to Cape May landing on the Warner, and
after arriving there, were told that they must pay
fifty cents nor bead morn to goon board the steam
boat John S Shriver, a little steamtug, which took
co many on board that they had scarcely room to
move about.
The Shriver took them to the Great Eastern, but
eonsumed two hours end a half in making the trip
She hod been alongside of the Great Eastern but a
few minutes, when it wre announced that she was
about to return to Cape May. Those on board the
Great Eastern, who came by the Shriver, immedi
ately commenced to go on board the S., but in a
few minutes the captain of the S. cried out "Tor
God's sake. don't any more come on board, or my
boat will sink !" He then moved his boat off,leav
ing 300 or 400 passengers who had gone down in the
Warner still on board the Great Eastern. This
was about five o'clock in the afternoon. The
steamboat George Washington happened to be
alongside at this time, when Mr. Maas got on
board, and was taken to Cape May. The Shiver
went to Caps May and landed her passengers,
most of whom went on board the Warner.
The Shriver then returned to the Great Eastern
for the remaining passengers, but about the time
she arrived there, the John A. Warner same
alongside of the Great Eastern also, but none of
her passengers were permitted to go on board the
Eastern, nor were those on hoard the Eastern, who
came from Philadelphia on the Warner allowed to
get on hoard the W., even when the steamboat was
fastened to the big ship. The Warner in a few
minutes after thin left, and steamed away for
Philadelphia. This was at 7 o'clock in the
evening.
Mr. Dings said that on the return of the trip of
the Warner not half the passengers she took down
were on board. There were nearly 800 on board
when rite started from Philadelphia. but on re.
turning there not over :300 or -100. Mr. Maas re
monstrated with the captain of the Warner on the
cruelty and injustice of leaving his passengers be.
hind, many of whom were not provided with
means to return, or even to pay for what they
wanted to eat.
The captain told him that It was none of his
Liminess • that the boat wee only chartered togs
to Cape sfay landing. Ho had taken them there,
and hail therefore complied with the terms of his
contract with the person who had hired the boat.
Mr. Maas showed the captain ono of the tickets,
which read—" Excursion to Cape May and the
Great Eastern," but the captain said he could not
help it, as he had nothing to do with it.
Mr L. S. Verness, another of the "sufferers,"
said he was ono of the party left on board the Great
Eastern, when the Mirk er loft, at 5 o'clock. After
this, tho climes of the Great Eastern told the Phi
ladelphia passengers that the Shriver would return
in time to take them to the Werner. Mr. Ventral
and his fellow passengerswaited nearly two hours
after this, when the Warner hove in eight, and
neared the Groat Eastern, but when Mr. Verness
attempted to get on board the W. ho was pre
vented, although he had a ticket to return in her
Ile then got on board the Shriver, and We% taken
to Cape May landing, along with more than c"o
hundred others. Many o! them had no mercy to
pay for lodgings or a meal's VlifilistB, end some
were obliged to walk the streets of Cape falai()
ull night, while °there slept In the entries of
several houses which were kindly opened to
them. These who had money, engaged lodgings
at the hotels. The next morning, (Wednesday)
about seventy paid their passage to Philadelphia
in the strainer Kennebec, of the Na.',, York line
which stops at Cape May. Mr. V. said stout
thirty of the passengers who went from
phis on the Warner, were left on the Great Eas'tro,
and worn token to New York. Mr. V. staid at Cape
Island till Wednesday evening,expecting to come up
in the John A. Warner, which was advertised to
make another excursion to Cape May and the
Great Eastern on that day, although the Great
Eastern left for New York on Tuesday evening.

Mr John Salmon said a etrztraiits• of the pas
