The Resolutions of '9s.

We ventured to predict several weeks since,
that the Virginia resolutions of 98 and '99, would
be adopted by the Baltimore Convention as part
of the national Democratic creed. This conjec-
ture. as our readers have already seen, was real
lied. For more than hafcentury these famous
resolves were regarded the peculiar property
of the Virginia Democracy, but they are now
for the first time. made part and parcel of the
great national platform Of the Democratic party.
The success that has heretofore attended their
employment in this State as an instrument of
humbuggery and demagogueism, doubtless,
tempted the assembled wisdom" of the Democ-
racy at Baltimore, to test their efficacy q
grander scale and broader theatre. The follow

abide by and uphold the principles lad down In the Nr-
and Kentucky resolutions OF 1885, and IN the report

foundations of its political creed and is resolved carry
them in their obvious meaning and import
The real meaning and import'' of the Virgi-
mia and Kentucky resolutions has been the sub
ject of controversy for the last twenty or thirty
years. According to Mr.. Calhoun and the South
Carolina school of politicians, they assert the
right of State nullify the laws OF Congress at
pleasure; the Virginia Democracy say that they
embody the doctrine of peacable secession, whilst

AN AMERICAN DRAGON KILLED AT CAMARG


The Mexican account of the affair is,-"
dragon belong ing to Gen. Harney's escort was
killed few days ago, at Camargo, by the Mexi-
can troops. 1t seems three of them had leave to
cross, with their horses for pleasure trip as is
usual sometimes in the service 1t appears they
had their arms well as horses.-The Mexi-
can say it happened in this wise The dragons
got drunk; and one of them insisted that he could
charge alone, and take battery which was
parked in the plaza. His companions having
more reason and discretion, begged him to de-
sst; but putting spurs to his horse, he charged
full speed upon the piece, though warned by the
sentinel not to come too near. Upon this he
drew pistol and wounded the sentinel in the arm,
which has since been amputated. He then char
ged upon the piece, and was shot with six balls
by the sentries having charge ofthe battery. The
body was then taken to the river and sent over to
General Harvey" This is the Mexicans ac-
count. We have not heard the other side.

ARMING IN SELF-DEFENcE.-We understand
that the demand for revolvers, bowie knives. and
other deadly weapons, has been steadily and rap
idly on the increase for few weeks past until it
has excited attention and remark from nearly all
who observe the extensive business going on at
shops where such things are Sold Since the
close of the Mexican war there has been no such
demand for weapons in this city. The cause of
this rush to the pistol marts is found in the notori-
and disgracetul fact that there is no security
for life and property in this city, except SO far as
one may be able to defend himself. The insane,
demoniac spirits of Rowdysm and Rum rule the
city. The gangs of wretches who acknowledge
no ruler but brute force and no law but knives and
gunpowder, are completely masters in some parts
of the town, and the magistracy and executive
authority, down to the most Insignificant station
house door-keeper, stand in fear and trembling
before these rufians, submit to their demands for
money, liberate them from prison, hash up COM
plants against them, and act in Just such man
ner as the villains dictate.-N Y Times

Important from Cayenne-Supposed Revolt Of
the French Eriles-Ierrible Sea Fightof Cay
We are indebted, says the N. Y. Herald, to
Fl. Lee Norris, ESQ.,, the American Consul at
Para, for a.copy of the BON Paraenso, published
at that place, of the 9th ult 1t contains report
of terrible sea fight, which lasted six hours, be-
tween three vessels, supposed to have been French
transport ships. 1t was thought that the exiles
on board of one of them had revolted.
From the Bonn Paraenso, May 81
On the third of May, fisherman of Villa da
Vigie, coming from the Lake Amapa arrived in
our city, and related an interesting event, which
wants 20 be confirmed. In going out from the ri
yer Amapa, on the 22d of April following the
side of the shore OF Cayenne, he saw large YES
sci sailing very near the shore. At the same
time he remarked two other large ships which
approached the first one with great rapidty.
Soon the two vessels began to fire at the first
ship, which responded to them. 1t was about
midnight when the battle commenced, and it con-
tinued till O'Clock in the evening" when the two
ships took possession of the first This is all that
was reported to us by the fisherman, who could
not discover the colors of the flags of these vessels
The event has been interpreted in different ways;
the one which appears the most probable is the
following:-
The place where the first ship was seen, is the
same taken by all vessels sailing towards Cay
enne 1t is, then, believed that these three yes
sells were transporting the French deported to
Cayenne; that the first ship was in very weak
situation; that the transported revolted on board,
on approaching the shores; that the captains Of
the other two vessels, seeing, from long distance,
that the first was badly governed, suspected some
thing wrong had occurred; they approached
nearer, when they saw what was passing; they
ascertained it was rebellion, and put an end to it,

We never heard Of d nuilidet br secessiouist

Gently become converts to the doctrine. But not
withstanding these conflicting interpretatio ms of
the Virginia aud Kentucky resolutions, the Dem
ocratic Convention declares that their .'meaning
and import is 'obvious.' 1t did not suit their
purposes, however, to point out this sobvious
meaning
They pledge themselves to cherish and uphold
certain principles as the main foundation of their
political creed, but they dare not for their lives
declare what those principles are.
As the resolutions of '98 and '99 are now
part of the Democratic PLATFORM it is but fair that
the candidate who has been brought forward as
the representative of Democratic principles,
should make kown his constr uction of those reso-
buttons. Can any of our state rights delegates to
the late Baltimore Convention, inform the public
whether Gen. Pierce is an advocate OF the right
of secession, or holds the old Jacksonian doctrine
that 'sSecesSion is treason"

svery reasonable inducement was held oi;s to
young men to enrol their names on the mus.
ter rolls of the volunteer companies, not a
solitary corps numbered one hundred mus
kets in its ranks Whilst observing the Gravs
under arms in our streets-whilst minglinp with
them around the festive board and in the beauti-
ful grove near Clarke's Spring, and thus witness
ing their manly and gallant bearing in nearly eve
ry relation, we thought it reflection upon the
city that corps so we'll differed and composed
OF such fine materiel should number in its ranks
less then fifty muskets. tits reflection upon the
chlvally OF our young men-and one, too, which
cannot be removed by the old excuse that volun-
teer companies are Objectionable because they are
apt to lead to social excuses. Would chat every
objector could have witnessed the temperate,
pleasant and agreeable manner in which the Gravs
celebrated their anniversary. Our word for it,
had they been present, that objection would have
been removed. But really this objection is not,
and never has been, entitled to any weight All
our volunteer companies, however, have suffered
under its influence, and it is high time the alb
surdity of the thing was exposed and the objec-
ton itself put to rest. We shall recur to this sub
Ject at our leisure.

he was observed and recaptured.

A NARROW ESCAPE FROM BEING CANpI-
DATE.-The Trenton State Gazette says that
Commodore Stockton had narrow escape from
being the Democratic candidate for the Presiden-
cy. On Friday, number of the States, among
which was Virginia, became tired of voting for
the old candidates, and satisfied that it was ne
cessary to go for some new man, and they deter
mined to vote for any one whom the Virginia
delegation might agree upon. That delegation
discussed the question on Friday night, and till
early hour on Saturday morning. They were
nearly equally divided between Stockton and
Pierce but on taking the vote among themselves,
Pierce obtained small majority, and the delega-
ton therefore led off for him.
Sale Of the Holy Land.-A Paris letter to the
New York Evangelist mentions report that
Syria has been sold to Rothschild for 5O00OO,O0O
francs; that he proposes to rebuild Jerusalem and
Soomon's Temple, to allow chapels for all reigi-
ons to establish railways and steamers, and to ap-
peal to the Jewish nation to return to the land of
their fathers. A similar rumor was circulated
several years ago. It is scarcely likely to be true,
though in these days money is all-powerful and
may accomplish greater things than this.
