For the Nor-walk Gazette.

I stand upon the liil|ock’s brow,
Where vandal Ti-you stood,

And saw the curling names below,
And crimson stains of blood.

He rose upon the quiet town,
All mad with furious zeal,

And sought to crush the rebels down,
Beneath his iron heel.

The flames went up—-the skies were red,
Before that noon-day sun,

As on they rushed with hurried tread,
And thought their work was done.

But look from this same lull to-day,
What fields of plenty wave——

A thousand homes stretch far away,
And Tryon in his grave.

Mistaken man 1 with sword and brand,
And hordes in death’: employ ;

Who sought to kill and waste the land,
lVhi'ch GOD would not destroy !

To the Whigs of Connecticut.

AMhelWhig State Convention, held
prior to the election in April last, a
Whig State Central Committee was
appointed, consisting of Selah Strong

and John Dunham, Esqs., and the un-
dersigned.
Since that me no‘ meeting of the

Committee has been held, but during
the Summer some consultation was had
by letter, and at a casual interview of
two of our number in reference to the
proper action of the Committee in
view of the coming Presidential
election. But the fact that there was
no Whig candidate for President in the

' field, and that under the circumstances‘

Nonwicu, Sept. 13, 1856.
DEAR Sm 1.-Your letter of the 12th
is before me, and, in reply, I have not
been consulted in reference to the call for

a Whig State Convention, and knew

nothing of it till last evening. when I

received :a letter from Mr, Strong, -.
stating that a State Convention had
been called, and inviting me go, amend
and bring on a delegation from There. I
su.ppos_ed you had been consulted. and
took it as a_ matter of course that a ma.

-,jority of the Committee must have de-

cided upon it, or the call would not

ill“? ll?“ l'W9d- My own feelings are

averse to having a Whig Convention
at the present time, or to committing
-our party, as such, to either of the Pres-
idential candidates, which have been
brought out by other parties. It was
decided, some time since, by the Cen-
tral Committee at VVashington, that
there would be no regularly called Na-
tional Convention of Whigs this year,
and consequ_ei_itly that our party would
not present any candidate for the Pl-esi.
dency at the present time. In view of
this decision and the g€_n0ral_ acquieg.
cence W-lI_l°ll has been g'.'ven to it. for so
longa time. the Whigs throughout the
country have made preparations to go
into the present campaign on their own
individual book. without enlisting under
any party banner, and without any in-
tention of abandoning the old Whig
flag, to which they have always rallied
whenever it has been legitimately hoist
ed ; and it is my opinion that any at-
tempt that may now be made-to rally
our forces for any purpose whatever, in
‘the present struggle. will be injurious
to us as a party. and greatly embarrass
us in any future movements. In this
section of the State the Whigs willy g_9_
be left free to not their oyyig -p‘,e.gu,-‘g 1,,

,tion of their olmcal brethren in other

would only produce irritable feelings and
drive from us many who will otherwise
remain with us.

see that any good could result, he had
put them off, hoping that the matter
would be dropped, but that finally he
- had, at their repeated solicitation, issued
the call, and that he had not consulted
me because it was thought by gentle-
men that, as Ifzad joined the Republi-
can party, I would not wish to act in
the matter. I was somewhat startled
at this unceremonious attempt to turn
me out of the Whig party, on the
ground that, in the absence of any dis-
tinctive Whig candidate for President, I
favored the election of one selected by a
Convention, to which all opposed to the
Administration were invited—and espe-
cially so, when those who volunteered

to administer the discipline, were them-
selves supporting the candidate of the
Southern division of the American

party,
The Conycution met at the time ap-
pointed, and was called to order by Mr.
Strong, who stated briefly its objects,
viz : to appoint delegates to a Conven-
tion to be held at Baltimore on the 17th
inst., and to keep up the organization of
the party; and he stated that he had
not consulted with his associates of the
Committee in regard to calling the Con-
vention.

The call for the Convention was then
read, and is copied from the "National
American” of the 13th inst, (of which
Henry Sherman, Esq., a gentleman
somewhat distinguished in the American
party, is editoig) as follows :

To the Whigs of Connecticut.

only public notice given of the Conven-
tion ;‘and appearing in the American, in
paper of limited circulation, only two
days before the -meeting, (Sunday inclu-
ded,} it did not of course, reach many
Whigs, or give much time to "the
Whigs of the several towns in this State

It, however, came out in the Conven-
tion, that printed notices had been sent
several days before to gentlemen sup-
posed. ta be friendly to Mr. Fillmore, in-
closed in the following circular :

DEAR Sin. :—You will be kind enough
to hand the within Circular to any well

Fillmore should be present; but as the

published callgand the private notices
sent in the circular, invited all Whigs

who adhered to their party organization
—and as Mr. Strong stated the same to
have been his intention when he made
the call, it seemed to be necessary in
order to prevent any mistake in regard, «
to the true character of the, meeting,
that there should be some declaration
on the part of those present which
would settle the question. According-

ily, I inquired of the President whether

it was intended to be a general Whig
Convention, or whether it was to be
confined to those Whigs who were for
Mr. Fillmore—stating it the same time,
that if it was intended solely for Fill-
more Whigs, I should of course con-
cede to them a perfect right to meet for 5
any purpose they might desire, without
intrusion from others. and that, in that
case, I should Withdraw; but that, if it
was to be, or to go forth as a Whig
Convention, I should claim, as having
been a Whig from the beginning to that
hour—and nothing else-to participate
in their proceedings. Other gen_llcr_n,en

Mr. Banks’ Speech in Wall street:

“There was in 1856 a commercial
marine throughout the world, of 15.-
000.000 tons. Great Britain had 5.000.-
000, the United States had 5,200,000
and the other nations of the earth
—iu Asia and in Europe--had the bal-
ance of less than 500.000 tons.

The commercial marine of Great
Britain, has in each term of 10 years
for the last 30 years increased 28 per
cent. If we look forward to the year
1880 or 1885, we will have a commer-
cial marine whose tonnage will out-
weigh, out-measure, and out-sail the
combined fleets of the commercial navy
of the world. What measures are nec-
essary to extend this commerce-—a com-
merce to-day of only one portion of the
Continent, and that the North? Let us
look at where we stand! Here is Wall
street. On the spot to which we now
direct our eyes, we "are now ninety days
journey from the populous cities of Hin-
doostan, of China, and of Asia-—the de-
positories of the world’s wealth for hun-
dreds, and for thousands, and for tens of
thousands of year.-3—a wealth which is
fabulous in its origin, fabulous in its ex-
tent, and is the accumulated wealth of
700.000.000 of people—a wealth which
it has been the object of nations, in ev-
ery period of the world, to gather, and
which has enriched whatever nation of
human industry has had even the slight-
est control over it. England has now
in operation three. overland mail routes
for the purpose of controlling this trade.
The British Empire is contemplating
three more overland mail routes, and

The Democratic Conspiracy to

Defeat Buchanan Developed

South. It is a senseless cry of desper-
ate demagogues and traitors, which ,lii_u
only excited public ridicule, derision and
disgust. But having failed to frighten-
me people, we have now this conspira-
cy of plotting spoilsmen to cheat the
people. We are to have a blending of
that fierce and savage democratic ter-
rorism which is striving to establish

that equally barbarous Know Nothing-
isni, which would ostracise all Catholic:
and all foreign born citizens from every
office of IIOBOI or profit in the United
States, and reduce all aliens to a twenty-
one years’ probation for the rights of cit-
zeilship. These are the bonds of the-
conspiracy for the junction of Generall
Atchinson, Millard Fillmore and Arch-
bishop Hughes.

The defeat of Mr. Buchanan stares
our democratic demagogues and.plotting
spoilsmen in the face. They give it up
——they abandon him; and their plan is
now simply to use Buchanan and to use
Fillmore to carry the election to Con-
gress, where the democrats by an inevi-
table and simple process, will secure, inc

be no election by the people, and none by
the House by the fourth of March next,
the Vice President. elected by the people
or by the Senate, shall become the Presi-

revealed in Wall street by Gov. Floyd,
accordingly proposed, by a bargain and
sale with Fillmore, to cheat the people
upon Fremont, to cheat and defeat Buch-
anan before the people, and in the House,
so that Brekinridge may become the an-

That’: enough. We Want nothing
more to prove the terrible fright and the
shameless treachery cf the democratic
leaders in this contest. These are no
hap—haz.aid declarations. Mr. Floyd has
been lots week in this city, preparing
this speech in reply to the masterly effort
of Mr. Banks. Mr. Floyd spoke by au-
thority. He had doubtless consulted
freely with Mr. Slidell and Mr. Hunter
in the interim, and other leaders of the
democracy in this city, as well as with
the Wall street Buchanan and Fillmore
financiers; and,'as a Virginia democratic
elector and missionary in New York-
Govemor Floyd spoke by the card. He
speaks of a bargain and sale; not all
that he knows, but quite enough for our
purpose.
Mr. Buchanan is to be sold out, and
Mr. Fillmore is to be used as a decoy
duck for Mr. Breckinrirlge. In Virginia
the Fillmore party are denounced as trai-
tors. “unworthy to associate with honor-
able men ;” and Fillmore himself is de-
nounced as a hypocrite and a go-between
running upon. false pretences. But in
New York, Gov. Floyd discovers that
"there are bonds of union between the
American and democratic parties,” and
he pledges us that if it be necessary to
defeat Fremont, the democratic electoral
vote of Virginia will be given for Fill-
more. Now, as the Virginia electoral
vote, whether given for Fillmore or
Buchanan, will make not the slightest
difference in the vote for Fremont, this
promise of Governor Floyd can only in-
volve the loss of Virginia to B.u.ch.auan.
It is the promise of the vote of Virginia
to Fillmore, by an act of. treachery to
the will of the Virginia people, and for
the purpose. of, carrying the election up
to Washington, so that, Mr. Breckin-
