RUSSIA, AUSTRIA AND FRANoE.-The
Emperors of Austria and Russia have had
several important conferences, touching the
present situation of Europe.
The result of these deliberations is con-

principles of the Congress of Vienna in 1914
and 1915, and unfavorable to the establish
ment Of the Empire in France, with the con-
sent of the Austrian and Russian EmperOrs.
These movements have induced Louis Ma

FRANCE.-Many additional refusals are
noted to take the oath of allegiance to the
President.

Important from the Rio Grande.
FIVE MEN KILLED BY MEXICANs AND
INDIANS.
Steamer Can.anche fired into again Cor
ernment Officer Wounded.

By the arrival at this port last evening
of the steamship Yacht, from Brazos Santi-
ago, we have received dates from Browns
vile, to the 26th ult The news is of the
most exciting character.
The Flag of the 18th ult. states that on
the evening of the 10th ult gang ofabOut
forty men, consisting of Mexicans and Indi-
ans, attacked party of seven Americans,
who were encamped at lake called Campo
cuas; five of those at the camp are said to
have been murdered, and all their property
taken into Mexico Two of the men, fortu-
nately, we're on the margin of the lake shoot
ing ducks at the time and succeeded in max
ing their escape. These robbers and muir
derers are said to have crossed the river
some forty miles above Brownsville, on Fri
day, the 9TH ult., and detachment of them
openly recrossed it again soon after perpe-
trating the murder, bearing with them the
right hand of each of their slaughtered vic
tins, while the remainder of the savagcs
cOolly emcamped on the ground where the
massacre occurred, expecting no doubt anoth-
or feast of blood from those whom they deem
ed absent from the camp, and would prOba-
bly, return unsuspicious of danger.
The population of the neighborhood was
not only too sparse for resistance, but afraid
to venture out to bury the dead, after the
murderers were gone. The Flag contains g
letter from Warren Adams, which says thai
it is understood that these Mexicans and In
dams were instructed by the authorities il
Mexico to kill and plumber all American cit
liens near the frontier, and that acting, al
they did, under the instructions of the a
foresaid authorities, they mutilated the bod
les of the murdered men, taking the righ
hand of each to testify that they were emit
tied to the reward of thirty or forty dollars
offered by Mexico for each American they
murder on the frontier.
The Rio Bravo of the Goth says, that TIT
steamer Camanche was again fred into las
week, and custom-house officer residing a
Rio Grande City, Mr.. Brashear, was danger
ously wounded His little son was onl,
wounded; and lady passenger, Mrs. Rog

above, who was on her way up to join he
husband, very narrowly escaped simila

The Nominations.

1t is with feelings of the livelicst satisfac-
ton that we announce the final result which
was reached by the late Democratic National
Convention which convened at Baltimore on
the 1st inst Notwithstanding our conf
dence in the wisdom and patriotism Of its
deliberations, our strong hopes Of a harmo-
NOUS and successful issue, were not unming-
led with fear that the elements of discord
involved in sectional strifes, and personal
rivalships, would conflict in serious meas
ure with that concert and unanimity so es-
sential to the democratic cause, and the
cventful occasion, upon which its interests
were suspended. We congratulate the cOun-
try that our hopes have been realised in the
fullest degree and that the national democ-
racy of the Union have been presented with
candidates for the Presidency and Vice
Presidency, who arc not only worthy of the
highest confidence and regard as sound and
consistent democrats, but who are likewise
cminently qualified to consolidate the strength
aud marshall the forces of the republican
phalanx.
For the high Office of President, the name of
GEN. FRANKLIN PIERCE, of N. Hamp-
shire, is presented to the American Nation.
For the Vice Presidency that of the Hon.
VIM. r. KING, of Alabama.
OF the distinguished nominee we can give
nothing more at this time than those his
toric outlines, which of themselves serve to
mark him as a worthy representative of the
democratic cause, and noble specimen Of
the devoted and unambitiOus patriot Hi;
name was first connected with the Presiden
tial canvass by the stedfast democracy of bis
own State, who, in their late convention, re
recommended him as their first choice for the
nomination Raised under the suspicious
influence of the lamentcd Woodbury., the man
tic of his illustrious patron and friend was
bequcathcd to him by the unanimous consent
of the New Hampshire democracy. They
proposed his name to the consideration o
the country for the honor Of the Democrat,
nomination, upon which he Immediately ad
dressed them letter, published only few
weeks ago, expressing sincere desire to b,
absolved from public notice, that he nigh
enjoy the uninterrupted retirement of pri
vate citizen. 1t is, however, decrced other
wise, and upon him has been devolved tn,
high mission of uniting the friends of the re
publican cause.
Gen. Pierce has served one term in th

WISCONSIN

The democracy Of Wisconsin, IN their
State convention recently held, adopted the
Baltimore resolution relating to the subject.
That resolution Is as follows:
"Resoloed, That Congress has no power
under the constitution TO interfere with or
control the domestic institutions Of the sew
eral States, and that such States are the sole
and proper judges Of every thing aPPer-
tanning to their own affairs, not prohibited
by the constitution; that all efforts of the
abolitionists or others, made to induce Con.
gress to interfere with questions of slavery,
or to take incipient steps in relation thereto,
are calculated to lead to the most alarming
and dangerous consequences; and that al
such efforts have an inevitable tendency to
diminish the happiness of the people, and
endanger the stability and permanency 81
the Union, and ought not to be countenanceC
by any friend of our political institutions. "
OHIO.
The following resolution was adopted BY
the Ohio democratic convention held in Jan
uary last. In publishing this, we think i
proper to remark that it is the same rcsolu
ton adopted by the democrats Of that Stat'
in 1848, when the State was carried for The
democratic candidate for the presidency:
"ResOlUed, That the democracy of Ohic
do now, as they always have done, look up
on slavery as an evil, and unfavorable to the
full development of the spirit and practical
benefits of free institutions; and that, enter
tanning these sentiments, they will at all
times feel it to be their duty to use all pow
er given by the terms of the national com.
pact to prevent its increase, to mitigate and
finally eradicate the evil; but be it further
resolved, that the democracy of Ohio do, al
the same time, fully recognise the doctrines
held by the early fathers of the republic
and still maintained by the democratic party
in all the States-that to each State belongs
the right to modify its own municipal laws
and regulate its own internal affairs; to hold
and maintain an equal and Independent SOY
ereignty with each and every State; and
that upon these rights the national legisla
ture can neither legislate nor encrOach."

In the democratic State convention, held

their general tenor and intention, each and
all of that series of acts of Congress COM
monty known as the compromise measures
that it recognises in their success an earnest
of security and perpetuity to our glorious

proof that they should, under no pretence,
