But the most notable political event is furnish-
ed by the Locofoco convention which met at
Syracuse on \Vednesday -of this week. The
proceedings of that body furnish another iiistruc-
tive chapter in the history of the harmonious
-D€m0'-‘7’¢l¢—‘,"]-' The llubllc" lmd been 9XP9Cl’»l"g 8 f was a creditable, well-written and well-delivered '
rich entertainment, but‘ that .-which has been
jflrovided is sumptuous beyond all precedent.
‘he reality has far exceeded the anticipation,
in
this case.
\Vednesday and commenced the work of organi-
zation and up to 2 o’clock to-day the coiiven-
tion was still unorganized. There are some 8
or 9 contested seats, and as they are decided, so
will be the c_haracter of the convention be deter- I
mined. It is a fight between the “Old-Hunkers"
and “Barn-,buriiers." for supremacy and power.
Perhaps some of your readers may enqui.e——
“ Vhat; is the dilfereiice between old linukers
and bnrn—burners'! A question more easily
asked than answered. But the main point in
controversy is oflice.
monopolize all t
"old liuiikers" claim to be more consci-vative,
and are more favorable to works of internal im-
provement, than the "barn-burner.-:.” In the
present contest, however,national politics have
entered. The “old hunkers” with Croswell of
the Argus as their lie-ad have taken ground againtt,'
the \Vilniot proviso, or I'tItllc.l‘ against making it"
an issue in the next: presidential election. The
other section are determined to force this issue
upon the party, and to nominate a candidate for
the Presidency who is in favor of the principles"
of the proviso.
But the “old bunkers" are in the ascendant,
and will have everything their own way. It is
possible that they will not dare, in the present?
state of public fcelilig, to take open ground E
against the \Vilmot proviso, but it. is quite cer-5
tain that they will not endorse its principles.—
A refusal to act. will be an equivacnt to a vote
of condemnation.
It is iinpossible, and it would be useless to at-,
tempt, to predict: the probable results of this;
Locofoco quarrel. The contest has been so
fierceaud bitter that it seems almost certain that
an open rupture will take place. But: whether
there is an open rupture now or notyit is quite
ceitain that the two sections ofthe party never
caii unite with and act harmoniously together
for the future. The breach must continue to
widen, and ultimately a separation will take
place.
Since the death of i\Ir.VVright, John Van Bu-
reii has aspired to the leadership of the “barn
burners." He is a man of decided ability, but
has neither the tiict. or caution of his father or
Silas \Vright. Croswell of the Argus is an over
He is a
very adroit political manager, and has perhaps
never shown greater skill in marshalling the Lo-
cofoco troops, than he has done in getting up the
present convention.
There is no local news of importance. The
annual convention of the Episcopal. church in
this Diocese assembled in this city on \Vednes-
day and adj. on Thursday after a harmanious
session of two days. This was \vliolly unex-
pected. It was generally supposed that the
question for restoring Dr. Onderdonk to the of-
fice ofBishop of the Diocese would again be
agitated and call forth a warm and exciting de-
bate. Fortunately however for the harmony
of the Convention :1 series of resolutions were
presented upon which all parties could coiisis-
tently unite. By these re.solut;ions the whole
matter is refei_'red to the General Convention of
the church which will meet on VVednesday
next. The proceedings of this body will b
wiitclicd with anxious interest. V
Now that I am speaking ofCliurcli matters it
may be well enough to state thatlcgal proceed-
ings have been instituted by the Rev. Mr. Grif-
fin to compel the Trustees of the Ceuteniiary
Church Brooklyn to allow him the possession of
the pulpit of that church, the parsonage con-
nected with it, &'c. This brings up the whole
question, of the legality of the act of secession,
and thesubsequcnt. proceedings ofthe Trustees.
It. is an important question, as any one can read-
ily see.
' The N. Y. Loco Foco Com:cntz'on.—-This bo-
dy, as appears by a hasty dispatch in the Tri-
bune of Monday, adjourned at 3 o’clock on Sun-
day morning. The nominations were made in
full, and are believed to be, without exception,
Hunker to the hub. About the disposition of
the \Vilmot Proviso, there are conflicting re-
ports. One says that it was voted down. Aiio-
tlier that it received the go by, and that only 54
delegates voted on the adoption of the address
and resolutions. See our New York letter.

have spread consternation tlirouglioiu; Europe,
and the embarrassment consequent, will no
doubt; be seriously felt here. The Corn 'l_‘rade '

ly was in a ferment; so with Spain ; a tornado

Gen. Scott has indeed entered the City of
Mexico. The intelligence given in a preceding
column, appears by later information to be fully
confirmed. The statements are much confused
and conflicting. The entrance into the city was
atteneded with a terrible loss oflife. The con-
flicts which preceded it. were of the most san-
guinary character. The loss on our part is vari-
ously estimated at from 1,000 to 1,700. Rumor
includes in that number Geiis. \Vorth and Pil-
low. The loss on the part of the Mexicans is
put as high as 2,500. Gens. Bravo and Leon,
and several Colonels are among the killed.
Santa Anna was wounded in the arm, but retir-
ed with his army to Guadaloupe. Riley and
his Legion of St. Patrick, 70 in number, who
deserted and were retnken, were all hang on
the 8th alt in‘presence of the army.
It now appears that the terms proposed by the
Mexican Commissioners to terminate the war,
were, that the N euces from its source should
form the boundary, thence due north to the ac-
tual south-eastern frontier of New Mexico, fol-
lowing that frontier up to Int. 37 north, thence
westerly to the Pacific. This would give us,
says the Tribune, all Texas, with a strip of new
territory 300 miles wide and some 1,400 long-
in all 320,000 square miles, embracing Califor-
nian Monterey, the magnificent Bay and Har-
bor of San Francisco with the large river Tim-
panagos and all the streams emptying therein,
almost the entire control of some 200 miles from
its source of the Rio Grande, and
800 miles on the Pacific.

Mr. S. W. Fowle:
Sir——Having purchased of Mr. Charles P. W'el|s,
our agent at Hartford, \Vistar's Balsam of wild
Cherry, and being so much gratified with its effects
in my own case, I am disposed to give you and the
public a statement ofthe case—tlial others similarly
affected may avail themselves of the benefit to be
derived from this truly valuable medicine.
[ was taken with bli-eding at the lungs about the
last of April. 1845. I iininediately applied to a phy-
sician and followed his direction for a considerable
time ; but I still continued to bleed every few
weeks, and to all appeaiainces I was rapidly sinking
to the grave. I then applied to other physicians-
and alllllHl,L'll under the treatment of some oftlieinl
became a little more coiiifortalile, yet the attack of
bleeding recurred every few Wccks until I had the
seventh, at which time the quantity of blood dis-
charged was nearly a tea cup full. Every successive
attack secnicd to reduce me lower—-till at last I had
I had no appetite. lhad ii severe pain in my right
side, so that I could hardly turn myselfin bed with-
out lielp—and the pain at times was so severe that
1 could not refrain from groaning. At tiinesl also
had ii severe pain in my chest and left side. I now
asked my physician what he thought of my case.-
He replied thatl ought to know the worst of it—-
that he thought I should not get well. This was
on the 16th ofsepteuiber. I tlieu purchased at the
store of Mr. \Vell.-i a bottle of VVistar’s‘Balsain. I
continued to use it—-and from the first two bottles I
did not notice much benefit except that my appetite
became better and an ulcer upon my lungs dis-
charged,after which I became comparatively free
from pain. After taking the third bottle I gained in
flesh as much as one pound per weeks for5 weeks.
I have now taken seven bottles, and am able to~do a
good deal of work in my shop ; and although I am
not quite as strong as formerly. I have every pros-
pect of becoming so. I would therefore recom-
uieiid to the public wis'ru.’s BALSAM as being a
most invaluable medicine and one every way worth
of their entire confidence. I have not a doubt‘ that
through the blessing of God it has been the means
of raising me from the grave. Yours, &c.

UST US DISBRO\V, would respectfully
inforui the citizens of Norwalk and vicinity
that he has purchased the Daguerrean appara-
tus of Mr. Armstrong, and would be happy to
receive calls from those wishing to examine
specimens of the art, at his rooms in Daskani's
Building, adjoining the Conn’t Hotel. He
would also invite those who wish to procure a
correct Likeness of themselves. their faniilies,or
their friends to improve the opportunity which
is new afforded them.
By a recent mid important discovery. Mr. D.
is enabled to take a perfect likeness in the short
time offive seconds’ sitting, which ent.irely ob-
viates the difliculty heretofore experienced of to-
king them in a cloudy orrainy' day. It also
overcomes in agreat measure the difficulty of
getting perfect likenesses of children; and is in
the latter respect, an essential discovery in the
art.
Miniatures taken possessing all the colon of '
life, and warranted not to fade, for the low price
of $1 50. ’
