Harrisburg, on Priddy. last. IVuY. H. Kepner;

Dentactrotle Convent ion
The, Nationtif Cohvention of the so called
Democratic party, will assemble ut Charleston,
on Monday neat, the 28d inst. The lenders
and drill• sergeants of the party, throughout
the Union, are just now in a feter of oacito•
sent, not knowing "which king" they will
be compelled to fight under. From present
indications, • we; believe the star of Senator
Douatne to lie decidedly in the ascendant;
but, suchis, tho fluctuation in political popti-
larit;,.and such the maneetivring'othis oppo•
rents, that his nomination is by no means it
certainty. He may very_easily be killed oft,
and a new and .comparatividy unknown man,
nominated. This was done in the case boi l
of Polk end Pierce, and may be - resorted to
now. Messrs. Hunter and Iyise, of. Virginie,
-•and Stephens, of Georgia, will alLhave warm
friends' in the Convention, and doubtless Other
gentlemen will have their 'supporter& Bow-
over, the chances of Doukins [fie the best, and
his friends are confident of success.
A Wnshington letter writer says:
"The friends 'of Mr. Douglns aro in 'Wash.
ington in largonumbers, and they crow boldly
over the letter of Mr. Dimmick. who, (hey Fay,
isa convert from the strongholds of Buchanan.
They are certain of the 'nomination of their
favorite at Charleston:whitst the most of thy
••• Southern members are equally certain the
other way. It is reported that Senator Cling
man, of North Carolina, expresses the opinion
that -Douglas will win the nomination."

. The four first named belong to our party:,
the seven last named are "Democrats." At
1 east two Senators can'be gained next fall, in
place of Idessis..l3ell and Schell, and there is
a good
„chance for four.. This is important,
as a United States Senator is to be elected in
place of Bigler, who, we hope and trust, will

of the people of Pennsylvania, and not the,
behests of a corrupt Administration.
-- ,TIIB - MILITIA:OP THRSTATES.—CoI. Roberts,
of the United States Army, has proposed n
plan of re-organization of the militia of the
several States. He proposes a short term of
service for volunteers, who are to be armed
end equipped and disciplined by Congress.
and to be-prid for a fewndays of service each
year, when under instruction, discipline and
drill. He fixes this voluntier force at two
hundred thousand, and 'proposes to divide
them, in all the Slates in proportion to their
believing title, division „wll,givo .
to each State sufficient force to preserve - do

Mr. Chisman protested against this form of

terms, provided other arms were suggested.
Mr. Potter anthorized•Cof Lander to decline
any.other weapons. urging the boWie knife as

offered; to substitnie himself for Mr. Potter

-positions Mr. Chismati, without consulting

while appreciating Col. Lender's 98 . 1, for hit:'

How PENNRY6'ANIA WAS CARRIED FOR
BUCHANAN IN 1850.- - -Mr. Plitt's testimony
before the. Covode investigation, established
that $70,000 had passed through "his hands,
as treafairer of the democratic committee in
1850, foe - the purpose of carrying Pennsylva
nia. He said the books, vouchers and pa.
pera •bn ru t,.so• that-no Jivideacc.ex•
ists in his posession to prove how this large
sum was spent, or to show' who happened to
be the fortunate beneficiaries. •
Mr, Webb testified, that two men, to his
knowledge, had been engaged in circulating
fraudulent naturaliiation papers, one of whom
was employed on the Columbia road, who
has since found his way into the. Custom
House at PhilatbAphia, and another.who was
rewarded With a place; but is DOW.all ace.

7 --- -TO NORTHERN SOHOOI,-TEAOHER.--Theitir,
ginia Legislature met lately, and inaugurated
its proceedings in the House of Delegates, by
passing a resolution, ‘, that the committee of
schools - and collegesringuire into the expe
diency of reporting a bill, prohibiting school
commissioners throughout the Commonwealth
from subscribing - to any teacher, male or fe
male, who hails from North of Mason .and
Dixon's line, unless' they shall have resided
in the State Of Virginia for at least ten suc
cessive years previous."
Should such a law be enacted; the chivalry
of Virginia would be compelled to send nearly
all their children to the North fur education.
At present, two-thirds of the Virginia young
men, intended for the learned professions,
graduate from Northern Colleges.
"ANn STifj:Tiiiy Corns "—Nebraska Te'r

UNITED STATES HOTiI4.----We were
pleased to notice, on a recent visit to Philo
tielphia, that the U. States hotel, fornierly the
Mansion House, corner of 13th and Market
Streets, is fast winning its' way to public fa
vor, niece it passed into the hands of Mr. IL
IV: - Kenna. The housels crowded, and the
average number of art ivals daily increasing.
The location of this Hotel, 60 elcso to 'the
Depot of the Pennsylvania Railroad, that tra
vellers can pass from the cars into its extensive
parldrs,• gives it many advantages over other
llotels.at a distance, and as the nevi Propri

of a first • class House, it . bids fair, under its
present management, to become one of the
most popular Hotels in the city.
