In the above remarks, we have sages

ple carefully to canvass .4wa merits of all
the distaguished an wbose names are

have already said, we can only add, that
in this, as in all other matters, we are *if
ling to abide by the decision if -a inajority.
Eu far as any opinion has been expresed,
h0 majoriy is with us. Maryland.,Michi
;an. kentucky, Louisiaan, New Hamp
ihire, Massachusetts, Alabama, and Mis
assippi have recommended some sime in
May, 1844. And recently, at aIarge Dem
eratic meeting in New York, a resolution
proposing the same time, was passed al
nost by acclamation. In fact.. there e
o many cogent reasons why the Deer
rratic Convention should not sooner as
emble, and they are so obvious, that we
lo not apprehend serious objections will
e ofered from any quarter. It woold
irgue strongly a diffidence of the merits
if their candate, and a fear that their fa
Mrable opinions ofhim would not be eou
irmed, it time was gives to compare his
iretensions and qualdcations with those
,others. Should they persist in insisting
tpon an earlier day . than that. it would
weate a suspicion that, somiebing was

facts of tho fPsober second -thought".of

Subscriptions to Netupapers. ?,c.
There i-s a .gross negligence existing in
some of the publishin.g offices of this coun
try, which is iie cause of grem irouldo
and annoyance to their subscribers.
We have known subscribers to ceritam
periodicals to be.called-on fbr their sub
ecripion, after a lapse ofsnnie years-from
the time they quit taking the paper, and
which they had paid for regularly. and to
numerous are the complaints which we
hear .%m time to time on this suject,
that It begins to look like real neglect on
the part of the pubUshers.
This oufht to be remedied in some way,
tar subscriers, if the are not careful in
filing away thir redets and be not able
to lay their bands on them at auy time,
hive frequently to pay the same subscrip*
tion tirice.-The most effectual way would
be, for every publisher of a newspaper or
periodical, to adopt the cask system. and
not only adopt it with a new subscriber,
but rigidly adhere to it in all cases.- By
this system their paper might not be so
.erensively circulated, ht we have no
doubt, it would be circulated more grpft
ably. as it would save the commissions eat
a collectoc, and would save the feelings if
.their -eal patros,-iheir cash paying sub
scribers,-Camden Journal.
Thieves.-There must certainly be a
very dexterous set of thieves abisut New

Tito Third Municipality has been the
scene of a series of burgluried andl larce
nies lately. OnThursday night a gentle
man's dwellin; was entered there and
rifled of its furmiture, even the velj quilt
which covered the bed in which he .sad
his wife slept, was stolen. The cold of
yesterday morning was the first thing to
awaken them to their loss.
"You have pulled the quilt oflrme, mny
dear," said the lady..
"No. toy love, you must abnve it all. to
yourself, for there's none of it over me,"
said the husband. .- --.
"Then it muet be between the bed ad
the iyall, my pet," said the ifily.
."It is not, any doek," sai.te gentle
man, "if yout look on the carpet I'll eu
gage-you'il find it thete, you always pull
it off the bed" . .
"1 dota'j said the lady.
"Yoar do." said the gentleman; and they
bnth jumped up to gud the quilt, but like
the Ieishmen's 6eu~s was no where. They'
