ANIMATED RESOLUTIONS.

We received a slip from the Delaware Gazette Of
the I'd inst, with the following interesting proceed
ings Of the democratic association of Wilmington.
They are written in clear and admirable spirit,
and deserve to be reechocd by every portion Of the
American people, be their party politics what they
may. Let us have no Oregon nor anti-Orcgon par
ties in the republic. We appeal to every good citi-
zen in behalf Of his country. Our cause is just
our claims to Oregon are clear and unquestionable
Let Americans stand together, asking nothing bui
,chat is Itself right and submitting 70 nothing that ia
wrong. Let us be firm, and at the same time con-
ciiatory every resortto hostile measures,
if such course be consistent with the honor and
rights of our country, but supporting our unsullied
honor and our essential rights at every hazard
There is another feature in these resolutions
which strkesus also with great force-we mean the
gratuitous interference of Great Britain with our
legitimate exertions to obtain the remuneration Of
Texas, once ours, then improperly ceded, and now
Just object for reacqusition. If this nation inter.
fere with us, it will probably soon become fit sub
ject for the consideration of our government wheth.
err il ought not to make firm but respect
full appeal to Great Britain. Upon another qucs-
ton, too, we must venture another suggestion
How comes it to pass, (on the supposition that
she has so acted,) that France has departed from
her usual kind and friendly alliances with the Uni.
ted States, and should mingle herself in any degree
with the British cabinet, in this great Texas ques.
tom Her government ought to be aware Of
the tendency which her reported cooperation with
the British cabinet is calculated to produce, in
weakening even these powerful afinities which have
bound the United States to our noble and ancient
ally, France.
From the Delaware Gazette Of May ..
DEMOCRATIC MEETING.
At meeting Of the democratic association of this
city, held in the Atheneum on Wednesday night
last, the following resolutions, offered by George
Read Riddle, esq, were adopted and ordered to be
published.
Inasmuch as il has pleased the English ministry
to take exception 10 the remarks made by the Pres
ident of the United States, in his inaugural address,
in relation to our title TO the country Of the Oregon,
and unexpectedly aude thereto; and inasmuch as
Sir Robert Peel the acknowledged head Of that min
istry, has vainly endeavored to reflect upon our
political institutions by stgmazing their executive
as the acreature of a mob election thereby con-
frming our opinion of the jealousy which exists in
regard 10 our government and the fear Of its increas-
ing popularity among the subjects of her Britannia
Majesty; and inasmuch as our government derives

Presidents language with the spirit Of his own deca-
ration in the House Of Lords "Should it be other
wise, can only say that we possess rights which,
in our opinion, are clear and unquesonable and,
by the blessing Of God, and with your support,
those rights we are fully prepared to maintain"
the rights Of his country without any buster
ing or bravado. We leave it to an impartial world
TO decide which conduct best becomes the executive
agents of a great country.
In conclusion, we must repeat our opinion that
this debate in Parliament is to be regarded only as
the result ola prcarranged attempt by Lord Pal.
merston and his friends to embarrass the ministry.
Lord Aberdeen doubtless anticipated il, and, being
uncertain how it might end he retained the steam
er one day, in order that he might fashion his in
structions to Mr.. Pakenham according to circum-
stances. A close examination of the principal Lon
don newspapers, we moreover repeat, leads us to
the belief that very little real excitement was pro-
duced in the House Of Commons, (among the lords
none is ever expected;) and that the whole matter
has been, ere this, dropped for the season. AT the
same time, however, it would be unwise to suppose
the existence of anything like apathy on the part OF
government so watchful and energetic as
that of Great Britain or that silence in London is
incompatible with activity in Canada and on the
north Pacific.
We shall return to the consideration Of this sub
jet in future number, and shall then examine the
grounds of the claim Of Great Britain as exposed
in the course Of these debates, which present
the only expression of the views of that government
with regard to Oregon, made public since 1897.

The Ripley advertiser. [volume] (Ripley, Miss.) 1843-1897, 1845-05-03
ALL THE JOHN SMITHS ARE NOT
DEAD YET.

The following comedy of errors was enacted
in Court OF Quarter Sessions in the West, a
few weeks since.
The Clerk Oft the Court called over the names
of twelve Jurors. Two answered to that rare
and romantic name-JoHN SMITH.
The clerk, well knowing that there was one
certain John Smith, if indeed any John Smith
can be certain, returned by the Sheriff as a petit
juror, took it for granted that John Smith had
answered twice to his name, and that by some
mistake he, the clerk, had written duplicate of
the name Of John Smith.
Proceeding upon his absurd hypothesis, name.
ly, that there could only be one John Smith on
venire, or in box, he after while succee-
ded admirably in bewilderiDg himself and every
body else.
Clerk-Ifthe Court please, there is one juror
wanting.
Court-We have counted the jury, and there
are twelve men in the box
Gladstone man must have got into the box
by mistake who is not jutor.
Court--Call their names.
Clerk-Gentemen Of the jury, please to an.
swer to your names.
Here he called them over again; and the two
indomitable John Smiths answered to their
names like men.
Clerk-There must be something wrong here!
Court-How many John Smiths are in the
box?
"One!" answered the two John Smiths stimuli.
taneously, for they were strangers to each other
and. from the noise of the Court room and the
crowd, it escaped observation that there were
two John Smiths, ard the John Smiths dio no,
know it themselves.
Court-Send for The Sheriff. (Enter Sheriff
Court coniinues-bring your list of jurors til
we compare it with the clerks list.
Sheriff (Perusing the list )-lf the Court
pleasee, there is but one John Smith here,
About this this time constable hawled out
clear the way for the grand jury. And in the
hustle and noise ofther approach one OF the
John Smiths slipped out Of The petit Jury bos
quietly and unobserved, and seated himself Il
the back row Of the grand jurors.
Clefk-There are, as said before, only II
Jurors in the box. and two Of them, think
must be John Smiths.
Court-There are IL, cir! | counted them
and If there are more John Smiths than one
then there are IL jurors 10 the box, - mattel
Of course.
