THE CONVENTIONS AX RICHMOND AND . ' Baltimore; h,*' For tlio purpose of healing tho JntA acism, and reconciling the diftci:enco&>>of th6^$iipO' crailc purly. Messrs. Stemikns, ToOjua1 and Conn, havo respectively nddfessed lcitdf'?^ to' their constituencies, and to effect the same object o Democratic address, signed by nineteen Congressmen, out of soino seventy of eighty from the South^has been published. These gentlemen however much they may difforJ among themselves in principle, agree in recommending that the stcedcrs from lliQ Charlcflto^i-go 'back-to Bulliuiore. Mi\ !Stk!Miens thinks llioy ought not to hnvo scccded, and tlint they wore entirely wrong in* njwfdetnandiug the protection by Congress of ulnve property in the territories. According to his view- tho South hns long abandoned the doctrine of intervention, and eho cannot now insist upon Congressional iuterferenco with slave property without a breach of plighted faith to the North. lie thus proposes tp effect u union with the Northern wing of iho party by a concession at all points. On the otli'er hand Messrs. Toossua nml Cobb, nnd *tho reignerfi of tlio Democratic address fully justify the late action of the Seceders afc Charleston, and hold out the prosper t of obtaining ample concession to their demands at ISultituore, and thus effecting a union of tlio party. They show clenrly that the action of the Charleston Convention in adopting the minority.platfdrm, and j its persistent adherence to Pot ocas, was a re<;- j ogmtion and endorsement of tbe Squatter Sovereignty heresy, an<l tlint this, whs done by sixteen States, who without l^ing able to cnst probably a siuglo electoral Vote, by virtue of> tlteir superior numbers in thef Convention, at tempted to foreo ll> e'adoption'o(\tlibir pin I forin i find tlic nomination of their candid ale against tlic united voicc of every Democratic Sltto in the Union. A course so unprecedented, full}' justified the action of the seceding delegates, but these gentlemen think that this very recession Iiob led to a proposition of conifn oirilsc which may lead to a* satisfactory adjustment. They therefore recommend that the assembling of the Richmond Convention should.-await tlic action at Baltimore, and should be^ poat-' poiicd lo a tin}" subsequent to its meeting. In recommendation we are glad'to;sce\l>nt. no member of Congress from South Cnrdlfiin or Alabama has joined, and we trust tliat none of the seccding State's .will give over the Convention at Richmond to which the., best lioges" of Southern Statesmen arc so/anxiously directed.
