TitkOis Colturgtort.--This assemblage of the
mayoral"! whig party went into the business that call
ed it together on the second instant, with great de
spatch. Every thing was transacted in the true whig
style, and all the clap trapsofcoonery were resorted to
fur_therturpossf of getting up a little enthusiasm for
their thricodeismed candidate. _
Noperson who reads the proceedings of this non

ceediugs.

the netiort" 'of this convention should be preceded by

moans to the disgusting emblem of their party. What
could be more revolting to the feelings of the truly pi.
ous, than to bear dm pure teachings of the scriptures
mixed whh the low ribaldry of reckless p.iliticians,and
to find the prayer that is held moat sac, ed by all who
believe in the truths of christianity, made the mere pro
logue- to tianmscrupoloas Situperatitios and slanders
of political adventurers.
The Rim Dr Johns, who officiated at the Cray Con

all good men will admit that he degraded his sacred
calling, when be consented to make his holy offica,sah.

a duelist and a gambler, and who has been denounced
bylis friends as an immoral and profane man.
A Goon °pr.—Henry Clay was invited to attend
the Baltimore Convention, but he doclined on the
ground that modesty forbid him to be present: "Ain't
that rich?" Henry Clay, the man who has been wan•
dering through the country for two or three months
electioneering, is too modest to go into the Conven
tion that nominated him for the office for which he has
been beggiagso long sad so impudently! Such gross

actors in the late convention. He it was that moved
that the Rev. Dr Johns should offer up a ptayei for

with the other charges. No such system was ever
eouteasplated by them who have the regulation of the

desire to help the pow, proposed to remit a portion of
