members of the Bar--they sat in slence-Death
had invaded their ranks and stricken down
distinguished menber-an ornament to the pro-
fession and to his native State-they felt that
they could not add to his fame, though they
could mourn his loss. The resolutions were u.
unanimously adopted, but they were not furnish
ed us for publication--and here we would take
occasion to suggest to the members of the Bar
throughout the State, the proprioty of paying
that tribute OF respect to the memory of CHAP
MAN JOHNSON to which his eminent talents and
great moral worth so justly entite him.
After the adoption of the resolutions alluded
to, as some County citizens were present, the

arising from a disordered state of that organ

The following are the most important of the reso-
lutions passed by The late Democratic State CoHven-
ton at Augusta:
Rs'olred, That when the President shall submit his nomi-
nations to the Senate for confirmation, il will become The
duty Of that body to vindicste our fellow-ciiizens, whose
regulations have been libelled by his acts, and to convict
hin OF the violation of his deliberate pledges.
RESOLVED. That the institution Of human Slavery is at va
rance with The theory Of our Government, abhorreut 10 the
common sentiment Of mankind, aud fraught with danger to
all who come within the sphere of its influence that the
Federal Government possesses adequate power 10 inhibit its
existence in The territories of the Union that the consiitu-
tonaliiy OF this power has been settled by judicial |cOnsIuc-
ton, by contemporaneous exposition, aud by repested acts Of
legislation aud that we enjoIn upon our Senators abd Rep
resentaiives in Congress TO make every exeitioH aud employ
all their influence to procure The passage OF a law forever
excluding Slavery from the Territories Of California and
New Mexico.
Resolred, That although the exercise of the power OF ex-
GLIDING Slavery from the Territories OF this Union has re-
ceived the sanction Of every republican administration, yet
it involves a principle which has never formed a part Of The
distinctive creed Of The National Democratic Republican
party; and from the nature Of the case il cannot be made
therefore. which can be occupied by The Democracy of The
several States in Iespect 10 it, is one Of absolute aud un-
qualified liberation Of opinion and action.
Resolred, That while we most cheeIfully coDcede to our
Southern brethren the tight, on all occasions. 10 speak aud
act with entire freedom on questions connected with slavery
in the Territories, w claim The exercise OF the same tight
for ourselves and any attempt, from any quarter, to stig-
matiZe US or our representatives for advocating or defending
the opinions Of our people upon this subject, will be repel-
led as an unwsrrantsble act Of aggression on the rights of

One OF THE MARTYRs.-Many tears are shed by
the Locofoco editors and letter-writers, at the - tyran-
nical decapitaton of General Armstrong, the Con-
sui at Liverpool. The Nashville Wing presents this
matter in its proper light. General Armstrong has
had his turn, with a full share of honor and profit, or
of unrequited labor. Read. General Armstrong was
appointed Postmaster at Nashville in 1880, and held
that Office until he was appointed Consul TO Liverpool
in 1645-13 years. His compensation at $4,000 a
year amounted to S26 900. During this period, with
out ~resigning, he served a campaign as Brigadier
General in Florida, seven months at $500 a month,
50, 100. The emoluments of the Consul at Liverpool
are estimated at SD 1000 a year, but say $1,000
years is $4,000. This shows a continued employ
ment of II years, with an aggregate compensation
of Sc, lOO! A right snug business. The people
will not object to the eq~uaiizing process which shuts
off such a monopoly and opens the way to somebody
else.-Cin. Gazette.

and yet he asks an election for another term of seven

this modest request, $50, 600 at least will be added

to the last sentence in the paragraph above quoted.

PENNSYLVANIA.


AT The Democratic State Convention, held at Pitts
burgh, July 4th, the following, among other resolu-
tons, were adopted, separately and unanimously:
RESOLVED. That with struggling Freedom every where, the
sympathies Of the Democratic party keep wstohful Company
wheresoeyer the people ATE lifting up their voices IN a manly
shout for independence. we here, on the de lsraiiOn day OF
our own, give them back for answer the full uticrance of
the hearts best hnpe, that Gods blessing will smile upon
their perls, and give them 10 all time TO come a day like
this.
Resolped, That it is our duty to watch. with a jealous
eye, our own liberties--and to resist early and always every
encToachment upon the general right of the people. We
regard with serious alarm the powers which corporate ASSOC
Citations are daily stealing from the many to the few.
ReS0lued, That prOdigal grants of special privileges, we
will dispute forever. No new bank nor any rechsrter,
without stringent individual liability and every possible
10 be an imperative necessity OF the tines. Their is no
safety. and can be none. except in a firm aud faithful adhe-
renee to the specie basis.
ResOlred. That the interests and rights of labor ii is but
just to defend. The labor of the country is the wealth Of
the cosntIy, and the impulse of her progress aud prosperity
Resolred, That all power should remain with aud be
welded by the people, except where, for concentration aud
convenience, it is necessary to conide the same to agents.
We approve not only Of an elective judiciary, but Of elect
Ing all public servants by the p~eople-who are FULLY cOmpe-
tent themselves to do what they employ Others TO do.
ReSOired, That the Democratic party 3dheTes now, as II
has ever done, TO the constitution Of the country. Its letter
and spirit they will neither weaken nor destroy and they
~re-declae that slavery is a domestic local institution Of the
South, subject TO State law alone, and with which the Geu-
eIal Government has nothing to do. Wherever the State
law extends its jurisdiction, the local instiu ion can con-
tiDue 10 exist. Esteeming IL q violation Of Slate rights "a
zen to extend the area of bondage beyond It's present d ,min-
ion-n"r do we consider il a part of the compromise of Tie
Constitution, that slavery should forever travel with the ai-
vsncing column of our territorial progress.
