We think it impossible that the road should
benefit both Charleston and New Orleans. We
remember the cost Of transporting a bale from
North Mississippi to Charleston was puta much
higher mark than to New Orleans. But the
Charleston papers put il At much less.

Rssolved, That we hold the American Union
secondary in importance only to the rights and
principles it was designed to perpetuats that past
.sl bisslsus 20 fong as 70 continues be the
safeguard to those rights and principles
2. That if the thirteen original parties to this
contract, bordering the Atlantic in a narrow belt,
while their separate interests were in embryo, their
peculiar tendencies scarcely developed, their
lutionary trials and trumphs still green in memory,
found Union impossible without compromise, the
thirty of this day will yield somewhat in the
conflict of opinion and policy, to preserve that
Union which has extended the sway OF republican
government over vast wilderness to another
ocean, and proportonatey advanced their civza-
ton and national greatness.
3. That in this spirit we have maturely consld-
cred the action of Congress, embracing series o.
measures-for the admission OF California into the
Union the organization of territorial governments
| for Utah and New Mexico the establishment O
boundary between the latter and the State Of Tex
as, the suppression of the slave trade in the Distric
/ of Columbia, and the extradiion Of fugitive slaves
and connected with them the rejection of the pro
position to exclude slavery from the Mexican terri
tories, and to abolish il in the District Of Columbia
and while we do not wholly approve, will abide b!
it, permanent adjustment of this sectional con
troversy.
A. That in our judgment, we will and ought t
resist, even las last resort to a disruption c
every tie which binds her to the Union, any actio
Of Congress upon the subject of slavery in tn
District Of Columbia, or in places subject to tn
Jurisdiction of Congress, incompatible with tn
safety, domestic tranquility, the right and honor

the slave trade between the slayeholding States,
in any refusal to admit as State any territor
heretofore apply ing, because of the existence
slavery therein, in any act prohibiting the intro
duction Of slaves into the territory of Utah an
| New Mexico, in any act repeating material
modifying the laws now in force for the recover
l Of fugitive slaves.
S. That it is our deliberate opinion, that upo
the faithful execution of the fugitive slave law, b
the proper authorities, depends the preservation
our much beloved Union.

Nicholas Scotto and Rafael Laucella, for consp-
racy and swindling. in having obtained four hun
dred dollars worth of jewelry, belonging to John

| and while there, had talk with the barkeeper
| about some jewelry he had to SELL The barkeeper
| introduced Laucella to him, and he looked at his
| jewelry, and asked what it was worth, and Smith
wanted four hundred and fifty dollars for it. Lau-
celia offered four hundred dollars, and this
| agreed upon, and he then took the jewelry up
stairs, and left Smith in the barroom, where he
| stayed two hours, but could not get his money or
goods. The other three men he saw in company
| with Laucella and they told him he would not get
his money. He left the house, and returned in the
evening about eight or nine o'clock, when he again
saw Laucella, and asked for his money or goods,
| but could not get either, and he then called a
Waterman to take him into custody. The case

the production of rebutting testimony.

mined, but the proceedings were without interest,
and in most Of them the defendants were dis
charged.
