What good is TO result to the country from dis

efforts made during the present Congress TO re-
enact re-endorse certain laws in relation sla

this House, notwithstanding you may pass every
day until the session closes resolutions endorsing
or re enactng these measures, they will be OF no
binding force ON the people, and will not prevent
them from legslating here ON the Fugitive Slave
law, and demanding legislation whenever they
proper to require il. IL seemed To him, therefore,
that discussion OF the merits Of these bills now,
and the discussion OF the opinions which particular
men may have in relation to them is out of time
and place.
But he would call attention to the subject before
the committee, and proceeded to argue that it was
fght that VIC should abandon the idea Oi support to
the Government from the sales of the public lands.

bic, and for other purposes, was taken up,
turned from the Senate, which body non conc urrcd

the sections except the first. A committee of

The Wings and the Factions.

When Mr.. +. p. BLAIR, Mr.. PREsroN KING,
and Mr.. MARTIN VAN buren, returned from
their fishing excursion last summer, they ina
gIned that they had devised plan for such
reunion OF the Democracy as would restore the
old dynasty to power in the person of General
BUTLER, Of Kentucky. The result of their
operations was soon visible in the State of New
York. At the Democratic Convention held at
Syracuse there was show of Democratic re-
union on national grounds. Old Hunkers and
Freesoers met in cordial embrace-the Hun
kers abandoning their principles, and surren-
dering the offices to the Freesoilers. This
convention treated the Compromise resolution
which was offered by Mr. WRIGHT precisely as
another resolution was subsequently treated by
the Democratic Congressional Caucus. 1t is
worth while TO reproduce the resolution that
was laid on the table at Syracuse. Here it is:
"Rooired, That the Democratic pnrty in the
State Of New York will faithfully adhere TO the
recent settlement by Congress Of the questions
which have unhappiy divided the people Of these
States, and will neither countenance nor sane.
ton any sectional agitation or legislation on the
This is the resolution laid on the table
by the New York Democracy in their last
State Convention. Such disposition of it
showed the complexion Of the convention, and
indicated the terms Of the Democratic reunion
in New York.
So much for Mr.. WRreHr's Compromise
resolution. Now. one word for tho cdndidat,s
of the convention. On this point we shall
cite Democratic authoriiy-the authority Of
Tammany Hall. Some weeks after tho re-
union at Syracuse, n convention Of the Democ
racy Of the city Of New York was held at Tam
many Hall for the purposeof nominating certain
city officers. At this convention Mr. WHEEL
~ offered certain resolutions, upon which he
desired TO learn tho sense of the meeting. be-

wanted no lodging, he said, but a direct vote.

Compromise, condemned the higher law, and

We have telegraphc intelligence of the arri-
val of the steamer America yesterday at Hall
fax, having left Liverpool on the 2lst ultimo.
The news which she brings from England is
OF importance.
The British ministry have been most unex-
pectedly defeated on the Militia bill. Lord
PALMERsToN, it seems, had proposed an
amendment, upon which the ministers joined
issue, when they Were defeated by vote OF
one hundred and thirty six to one hundred and
twenty five. This event was altogether un-
looked for, as the ministers on the previous
night, on Lord MASS motion concerning the
Clarendon and Birch affair, received one hun
dred and thirty-seven out of two hundred and
thirty-two votes.
Our despatch states that all sorts of rumors
were afoat at Liverpool as TO who was likely
to succeed Lord john RUSSELL; "a coalition
was expected between Sir JAMES GRAHAM
and Lord PALMERsToN.
When the Premier announced his resigna-

one was prepared for this result. 1t was said

be arrested, soon decide whether order and good
government shall be preserved, or anarchy and

have no wish that is incompatible with the dig
nity happiness, and true interest of the people OF
this country. My ardent desire is, and my aim
has been, as far AZ depended upon the Executive
8 Department, to comply strictly with all our en-
gagements, foreign and domestic; but to keep the
United States free from political connexions with
every other country, to sec them independent
OF all and under the influence of none. In word
want an american character, that the powers of
Europe may be convinced we act for OURSELVES,
and not for others. This, in my judgment, is the
only way to be respected abroad and happy at
home; and not, by becoming the partisans of reat
Britain or France create dissensions, disturb the
public tranquility, and destroy, perhaps forever,
''the cement which binds the Union.'

The kentucky State Convention.

The State Wing Convention was composed of
three hundred and sixty two delegates, whose pre-
sence and names were reported at the secrctary's
table.
The proceedings of the convention con-
Quoted in spirit of confidence, perfect harmony,
and good feeling, which it was delightful TO wit
ness: and the results OF its deliberations in the
highest degree satisfactory, not only to the dele
gates themselves, but To all Wings with whom
havc since conversely and have not the slightest
doubt but they will be most cordially aud cnthusi-
astcally approved by the great Wing party Of
Kentucky.
For ourselves, we are more than satisfied we are
highly gratificd-with the proceedings. The elect
ors and delegates to tue National Convention are
men of the right sort, and they WILL we conf
dent, vindicate, in the discharge Of their duties,
the wisdom of their selection.
The resolutions, which were adopted with perfect
unanimity, present Wing principles boldly and
distinctly, that every Wing will at recognise
i'll them his own convictions
In recommending President FILLMORE to the
National Wing Convention as their choice for the
Presidency, the delegates only expressed the amost
unanimous sentiment Of the Wings of Kentucky.
Conversations upon this subject with delegates
from different parts of the State convinced that,
leaving kcntuckys own distinguished sons out OF
the question, Willard Fillmore is the first choice of
ninety nine hundredhs of the Wings CT the State.
Aud he lie worthy of that preference. Never, since
the days Of Washington, have the affairs Of the
General Government been administered more Just
~, prudenty firmly, and successfully, than during
the time that nc las eat in tie Executive chair.
With nerves that never quiycred. and wisdom
never disconnected. he has marched forward in the
difficult path OF his duty with unhesitating and
unialtering stcp; enforcing the Constitution and
the laws at the North and at the South with equal
hand, and with an energy which was quiet as it
was rcsistlcss. Such President well deserves the
appreciation and the suffrage of the Union loving

at was hardly TO have been expected that the &c.

view Of healing the sectional differences which Ind
sprung from the slavery and territorial questions,

compromise must necessarily be unwecome to
men OF extreme opinions. And though without
such concessions our Constitution could not have
