Wo were ono of the dense crowd, that, on Saturday last, witnessed wilh quivering lips, and a throbbing heart, tho departure of jomo sovon hundroil volunteer citizen soldiers from the City of St. LOUM, for the seat of war on tho Mexican frontier. They left about ono o'clock, P. M.

In tho noble slearn- er Convnyi nnd are as fine a looking body of men as ovor shouldered a musket in Iho defense of their country's honor aud rights. We find it Impossible lo convey even a faint idea of the that pervaded the countless throng gathered upon the levee, as the splendid boat swung from her moor- Ingi. She left amid the roar of cannon, tho prolonged cheers of tho bystanders, and Iho waving of handkerchiefs by Iho hands of a large number of ladies that wore collf cti-d in the second stories.of the stores along the levee. Over them floated tho stars and stripes of our belovod country, in the defense of which they havo gone to bravo Iho trials aud dangers of tho battle field, and to encounter the malignant diseases of a summer's Southern ollme. The scene was ono of minted pride and regret.

The principal ground taken and argue by Mr. Trumbull, why the friends of lh Hon.

He also successfully answered Trumbull's eulogy upon the Conventlo System) and refuted his protestations as Ihe great necessity there was of abidlu under all circumstances by thoir action, showing that St. Olair county had been Ih very first county.In the district to bring Ih system intodhrepule with the Locofocopar ty, by first making, nominations, and the bolting them, and that this had not been don once, but several times. He also showc that oven nt tho first election of Mr. Smith the Locofocos in part bolted tho nominatio In St.

Clair, by voling for J. L. D. Mor: son, Esq. the Whlfj candidate; and that that lime Mr.

Smith's vote was nearly en hundred behind the regular Democrat! vole of lhatcounly. Mr. Merrill conclude by saying, that the people would now hav a fair opportunity of rebuking the fraud that had crept into Iho Convenlion Systcn by deciding between Mr. Smilh and Mr Trumbull, the opposing Democratic candl ilatus in Ihe first Congressional district. Mr.

P. QolT, another of the delegates froi. this county, succeeded Mr. Merrill; anil as signed his reasons why he full bound I withdraw from Ihe Convention and lo pro lest against ils proceedings, lie also gavi his reasons why he should support Smith ii jreference to Trumbull.
