upou the whites. The Democratic State
Convention met at Saciameiito ou June
27th. The ti.-st two uay3 tvere spent, in a
great measure, in personal altercations be
tween tho two wings of tho party. Wash
ington withdrew from the contest for gov
ernorship, and his wing of the dun jcracy
put forward M. 8. Latham as their nomi
nee. On the lirst ballot there was uo choice,
wheu the Convention adjourned until next
lay.
There was much ill feeling and excite
ment in the Convention; and with both
wings of tho party the motto seemed to be
Itulo or lluiu. B'gler was subsequently
nominated by a vote of 225 to 250. The
Convention adopted a platform resembling
the last Baltimore platform, with-an addi
tional resolution denouncing the Know

"THE STAB 6PANOLED BANNER."
0 say can you see, by Freedom's clear light,
A stain on the banner that s over you
fling;
Which eushrouds the bright stars In the
blackness of night,
And proclaims to tho World that your lib
crtv's dvinsr?
Hear its victims despair,
How it bursts on the air,
And proclaims to the world tflat your flag
is still there ;
For the Star Spangled Banner la tri
umph now waves,
O'er a land whore one-sixth of the people
are slaves.
'Mong the hills of the North, where we
boast to the world,
That no slave dwells with us by per
mission, The folds of that Flag by our homesteads
unfurl'd,
Is but a Slave-catcher's Commission :
To stalk through our home,
And our neighbors to doom,
To a life of despair more dread than tho
tomb :
For wherever tbe spot that that Banner
doth wave
There's not but despair iu store for the Blave.
Oh 1 ye who have boasted your earlier fame,
Behold now with shame your eouutry's
prostration ;
Deep in infamy's pit be buried the name
i hat makes war to enslave a tree uatiouj
Aud make her domains
But a market for chains,
While thus to the world she her vileness
proclaims j
That tho Star Spangled Banner floats
not o'er tho brave,
But o'er cowards whose glory's the. weak
to enslave.
Behold how the sons of your virtuous brave,
Who were martyr' d in freedom's en
deavor, Are compelled to betray the fugitive slave,
Who has striven his bonds to dissever,
And your Statesmen combined,
O'er his limbs and his mind,
The fetters of ignorance and iron to biudj
For tho Star Spangled Banner in tri
umph doth wave,
O'er the the land of the tyrant aud the
thrall of the slave.
Oh weep ! all yo lover's of liberty's name,
Oli I weep tor the utter uisgrace ot your
nation ;
And pray that her Banner be cleared from
tho stain
That has worked thus her sad deflation!
With power and with might,
Strive, pray, that the night
Of oppression be pierced by the Gospel's
pure light
That the Star Spangled Banner in tri
umph mat wave.
O'er a laud unpolluted by the toil of the
Slave. W. A. u.
