groves in‘tlic‘ vicinity ' of 'Norwalk, and its
beautiful adaptation _to easy speaking and

the: massesof people who will doubtless
throng its shady slopes, is as fortunate as its
nearness and case Of ' access from the Bridge.
On a formé occasion wooden benches were
constructed forthe use Of the audience. These
Were so sadly misappropriated that they
proved aIdetriifientIto, rather than a means
of comfort tothe audiencc,.and the Commit-
tee have resolved this- year to do away with
seats altogether, so that if any person should
attend'with any aged or infirm person, it
would -be well to ’ bring with them
some simple stool or chair, which -may be at
the disposalof the party requiring it.

As. there. is every, probability‘tbat. our
streets will begdr'y- and dusty, and as there
are always; on an Occasion like this, more or
less women and children, aged and disabled
persons . about the streets, - the Committee
have,:ve'ry wisely. as we think, determined tO‘
permit“ no horses Or carriages in 'the line of
the prbcess‘iOn. ‘ This featdre, heretofore, has
been mOre a matter of ceremonial form than
necessity, as the entire route of the proces-
sion ‘does not exceed a half-mile. The de-
tails of arrangement for the Public Dinner,
Toasts, die, are not yet completed, but are
in efficient .liands‘ and 'Will be “done up” af-

The (FIBEMEN’S PARADE AND TRIAL, we
presume, will constitute one of the leading
attractions of the day. A Silver Trumpet is
retire presented for competition to any com:
pany in the State, and will be given the one
which may fairly and honorably win it, with-
out bickering or dispute. .We hope to see a
large delegation of the Firemen of this and
the adjoining Counties honorably contesting
for the prize. '

The fire. Works feature has been placed in
competent and liberal hands, who, we learn,
have not been darefulto confine themselves
in their selections ,to'thespecific amount of
money set apart by the Committee for that
purpose. we - are promised an exhibition
such as we have never seen in Norwalk be-

Soldiers of the War of 1812. ..
It isa well known fact that in Norwalk
and within a radius of a few miles, there are
living a large number of those who bore
arms in our country’s defence, either in act-
.ive service or in the “coast guard” as it was
called, and it is the earnest wish that all such
will present themselves at the parlor of the
Allis House, as early as half past nine on
Wednesday week and receive a badge and
join in the procession. We presume the fires
of patriotism burn as brightly in their bo-
soms today as in the “times that tried men’s
souls ;" and if this class of our citizens turn
out with that general unanimity we antici-
pate, we think this will prove one Of the

most interesting features of the procession.

, Engine Trial.

Red Shirts have been the predominant in-
stitution licreabouts for the past week. . A!
grand trial of longitudinal squirting, between
Compo Company of Westport, and Phoenix
of Norwalk, for a Silver Trumpet and the
“chomn’onshz'p,” has been the exciting cause
of the inflamatory array. The trial came
off on Jcssup’s (lock, Westport, on Saturday
afternoon last, which resulted in a draw.—
Phocnix played first and threw an unbroken
stream 168 feet, 8 inches ; Compo followed,
and when some twenty-five feet short, burst
her hose, with a quarter of a minute to play.
As the tide was low, it was concluded to‘ad-
journ and make another trial, some day/the
present week,—probably on Friday or Sat—
urday. There was the largest crowd c’ollccf
ted we ever saw gathered in VVestport on
any purely cold water demonstration. We
observed an enticing “welcome" suspended
'from the tower of the new Church, to P1103-
nix Hose department. Empire Saloon had
out a banner festooned by an American flag
- ——with motto, “ welcomePhcenix—iuay the

I ~ best win.” ’COInpO's house had an Evergreen

strung across the street in front Of their house
with the word,“welcome" appended there-
tO. ’ As near as we could gather the opinions
of members of each 00., both parties were
equally sureIof defeating the other next time.

The Baker Family.

This well-known band of vocalists, who
in days lang syne turned the heads and
hearts of the music loving world as thorough-
ly as have the Patti’s and Grisi’s since, are to
appear before our people again this Monday
cv ening. It is now some twelve years since
we listened to their exquisite vocal melodies
at the old Town House, where they then
drew a full house, as they deserved, and as
we hope to see them favored with to-night.

BALTIMORE, June 18,I1860.

The Democratic Convention met this morning and
upon it call of the roll it appeared that all of the mem-
bers were present except a portion of the Connecticut
and Delaware delegations.

Mr. Sanlsbury OFDeluware, stated that some dIele-
gates from that State were present but had no tick-
cts.
The President. C. Cusbiiig.) stated that the ser—

gcnut-ut-nrms ha been supplied with tickets for all
the members who were present at the time ofadjonrn-
ment at Charleston.

Mr. Sinilsbury moved that all the members of that

_COliveutiou be admitted; ruled out of order.

The discussion grew quitewarm, and was finally
terminated by an adjofirnmcnt till four o'clock.

[P. S.——Tbc price of rails is on the decline.

. BALTIMORE, June 19, 1860.
The Convention came to order pursuant to adjourn-
ment.

Mr. Chili-ch, fN. Y. asked permission to make a
pro osltiou to armonize the pending amendments,
an to arrange with regard to the admission of dele-

tes.
gnThe Chair understood the question to be upon the
modification Of the amendment.

Mr. Church withdrew the latter portion of his, of-
fering the following in its place: ,

Resolved, That the credentials of all persons claim-
ing seats made vacant by the secession at Charleston
be referred to a Committee to examine and report the
names Of persons entitled to seats.

Mr. Sibley of Minnesota said the delegation of that
State wished to know what was to be referred to the
Committee.

' Mr. Church hoped the question _would be put im-
mediate y.

Mr. Cochrane of New York raiseda point of order.

The resolutions finally passed, and the contested
seats of Ballet, the Minnesota and the Arkansas. del-
egation were also re erred to the Committee. .

Wednesday, June so.

The Convention met this morning at 10 o’clock,
and immediately adjourned again to 5 o’clock this
afternoon. .

The Committee on Credentials not being ready to
report, nothing has been positively determined yet
in committee; but a ma'ority is known to be in fa-
ggr of thc‘contcsting or ouglas delegates from the

nth. . -

There were two fights before the Committee on
Credentials last night,- and another this morning,
growing out of one of them. Besides this, there were
nnIiaIein- performances in the same line outside ofilc-

a c rc es.

This morning, in the few brief minutes in which
the Convention was in session, a pass: ear difficulty
occurred between Mr. Clark, M. C. of issouri, an
Mr. Cooking of the same State, in which very embit-
tered laugh e was used by the former. .

dis st of the vast audience assembled. The pse
of t me in no wise mitigates the fiercenesl of temper
with which the two factions of the party regard each
other. Indeed, it rather hightens the enmity.

The Douglas men are fierce and defiant, {and claim
to be ready and eager for the consequences.

Last night before the Committee on Credentials

an e of an exciting ersonal character sed be-
twen riWhitely, secedin delegate from laware,
and Mr. Townsend, Doug as contestant from some

State.

About 5 1-2 o‘clock, Mr. Townsend came down
stairs into the office, laid his cane down on the coun-
ter, and was walking into the wash room, having to
pass Mr. Whitely on the way.

Mr. Whitely rose, and as r. Townsend passed he
struck blina violent blow on the side of the head.—
Mr. Townsend was s ered by the blow, but recov-
ered himself immediate y,and a flu g on Mr.Whi e-
ly, seized him by the front of s s frt and neckt e,
and ran him across the office. The landlord of the
hotel, who alone witnessed the encounter, called for
assistance, and the police rushed in and separated the

parties.

When Ill-.Whitely rose, be immediate] thrust his
hand into his breastpocket as t ough feel u for some-
thing, when Mr. Tow‘nsend sa d, “Be care I, he may
be armed.”

Mr. Whitely, after feeling in his pocket looked
anonnd him on the floor, when Mr. To send saw Mr.
w hltel ‘Is pistol lyiu near ‘llll! feet. e instantl
secure it and placed t in his own pocket, sa ing “
will take care of this- for the present.” Mr. itely
was then taken out of the" house, and the affair for
the present has terminated.

Mr. Hooper of Alabama has challenged Mr. Hind-
mun. The Imcctinw will take place. '

The Virginia difficulty is said to be in a fair way of
adjustment.

. Thursday, June 21.

Ideas are stronger than institutions or organiza-
tions, and the Democratic party trembles this morn-
ing upon the verge of final dissolution.

The Baltimore Sun of to-day (Democratic) says it
has no confidence that any counsel or suggestion
which‘mlght be offered to the Convention, even by
:n ital-change], would be of any avail in its present

a e.

When the Hall was cleared, it was found that the
centre'of the platform over the par uetteand orches-
tra had iven way, and made a she ing hole in the
centre of the floor. -

No person was hurt.

The Convention took a recess for one hour.

Mr. Butler of Massachusetts rose ton uestion of

After further skirmishing the Convention took a
recess till 4 1-2 o’clock.

At 12 o‘clock three reports were made from the
Committee on Resolutions; the majority report ad-
mitting the Douglas delegates fi’om Louisiana, Ala-
bama, and half of Georgia, and rejecting Ben]. F.
Ballet, an anti-Douglas man fl-om Massachusetts,and
another such from Missouri. The minority of nine
States, consisting of Oregon, California, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina,
Kentucky, and Tennessee, re fled in favor of the
original delegates to the Char eston Convention, and
of Ben). I“. Ballet and the anti-Douglas delegate from
Missouri, whose seats were contested.

The travails of this Convention surpass everything
of the kind ever known. What seemed sure this
morning is now unsure. .

The Convention was in session but a few minutes
this afternoon,but long enough for one row and fight.

Mr. Montgomery of Pennsylvania com lained of
the chairman of his delegation, Mr. Bands 1 of Phila-
delphia about the tickets of admission. Mr. Rau-
dall rushed at him. and called him a liar and a cow-
ard, and was in for a fight in any moment. -

Mr. Dawson bucked Mr. Randall, applying similar
terms, and Mr. Montgomery retorted amid such an
uproar as is not to be found outside ofa Democratic
Convention. .

After the Convention, Mr. Randall, jr., assailed
Mr. Montgomery by a blow in the face, and Mr.Mout-
gomci-y, it is said, knocked him "vcry fiat. Th1

The New York delegation, after a long session,
have at last settled one pornt of their distractions.—
They have decided, by a vote of. 41 to 27, to sustain
the report of the majority ofIthe Credential Commit- ,
fee, so far as it refers to Louisiana.

They are now on the Alabama cane, and that will
be decided, probably, in Ifavor of the Douglas dele-
gates, by a siiilllar minority. '

A proposition to admit both delegations from
Louisiana was defeated by four majority. .

. AETRRNOON sussrox.

The Convention was again called to order at 5
o‘clock.

r. Bradford of Pennsylvania moved a recess till 8
o’ ock.
Mr. Randall of Pennsylvania moved to adjourn.
Mr. Montgomery of Pennsylvania, on a question of
privilege. desired to know where the delegates here
were to get tickets of admission. He desired that
the present mode be changed. Tickets were given
to others than delegates, and he could not obtain
his through a third party when it was known that he
did not choose to hold any communication ersoual-
l with the Chairman of the delegation. to asked
that half of the tickets might be given to Mr. Cassi-
d of Pennsylvania for distribution, and halfto the
Chairman of the delegation.

While Mr. Montgomery spoke, Mr. Randall of
Pcnnsylyauia approached as near him as possible,
cxclaiming in an excited voice, “ It’s false—it‘s a
base fblsehood." ' .

Fifty delegates rose to their feet and crowded for-

uni.
wOne of Mr. Randall's sons gestlculated violently in
dumb show, and struggled to approach Mr. Mont-
gomery, who remained standing on the bench. .

All the Pennsylvania delegation, and half the Con-
vention, were on their feet, cudcuvoriug to crowd
around Mr. Montgomery, who exclaimed in a loud
voice. “He lies—it. is a base lie; and the man who

The Agony at Baltimore.

' The Second Session of the harmonious
Democracy, at Baltimore, which has eclipsed
Charleston in its wranglings, quarrels, rows,
fisticufl's, knock-down and drag-outs, has
closed its labors. The Douglas wing re-
mained and placed the little-giant'iu unani-
mous nomination. Those opposed withdrew
and nominated Vice-President Breckenridge,
with equal unanimity. SO that the great
united, harmonious Democracy stand before
the country broken in center, and each wing
pitching into the other in true Kilkenny fash-
ion. The 'Herald says, “The democratic ma-
chine has all gone to smash, and no human
power can now avert the. calamity of Abe
Lincoln’s election.” The New York News is
still more lugubrious, and says :— i

To say that we are disappointed does not
express our feelings. Our dearest rights
have been trifled with, and the interests of
our party and our country jeoparded by the
failure of our delegates to that Convention to
make those necessary concessions we urged,
and which would have enabled them to unite
and harmonize, and present but one ticket fOr

 

their dereliction of duty.
