The B.rnhurner., Protest..


The Baltimore Convention resolved to admit
both the Barnburaers and Hunksrs delegates
each delegation protested-the Convention re-
eeiyed the protest of the Hunkers and rejected
the Barnburners.
The protest Of the Bsrnburners recited the
proceedings of the Utica Convention which ap-
pointed them, and made extracts from the ad-
dress Of the Legislative Caucus. and concludes as
follows:
II this Convention recognize as the repre-
sentatives Of the democracy of New York,
men, among whom may be found those who
opposed the Independent Treasury; who
were hostile to the debt-paying policy OF our
State in 1912; who lobbied against the Tar
lift Of 1916; who fought with desperation
against calling Convention TO revise our
State Constitution; who denounced the re-
suit Of the labors Of that Convention; who
treacherously defeated Silas Wright, the
regular candidate for Governor in 1916;
who attempted at the Syracuse Convention,
in September last, to annul the old usages
Of the party; who, living in State which
owes its greatness to the dignity and inhu-
ence with which its liberal institutions have
clothed the ann Of free labor, unblushingly
advocate the extension OF slavery into terri
tory now free. and upon that ground claim
to be entitled to seats in this Convention as
representatives Of New York democracy
We have no hesitation in saying that if we
should consent to divide with them our seats
and our votes, we should betrsy the princi-
piles and forfeit the confidence Of the pure
and fearless party whose commission We
bear -
We, therefore, respectfully decline to
take seats upon the terms proposed by the
Convention,

The Cologne Gazette confirms, in conespon-
dence from Posen, the intelligence Of the general
rising of that duchy. All the men capable Of bear
ing arms have abandoned u cir homes, which are
now all exclusively occupied with old people, wo-
men and children.
Ii appears that the insurgents assemble where
ever theI have any chance Of defeating the Prus-
sian troops Farther details are given Of the fight
nj Wreschen, where the Poles defeated General
Hrschfield, although he had fonr cannons which
increasingly played upon the enemy, and commit
ed the greatest havoc in theiTranks.
II is now admitted that some Of the Prussian
troops prooably those of Pslish origin have gone
over to the insurgents OF patriots. Since the
PrussiaI troops set fire 10 the town OF XioIz, they
have lost ground, and have been oyermastered by
their antagonists.
The Pr1ssian State Journal admits that there
are unexpected attacks and conflicts daily and al
ways with loss on both sides. - =
