TINT "TRIuuru A few Democratic
papers. of certain stripe, in coujunc-
ton with those Of the Opposition, seem to
take delight in falsely representing the
action Of the recent Democratic State
Convention in Vermont, as "a Douglas
triumph" an "anti>Admnistation tri-
umph," an "anti-Naticnal Democracy tri-
nmph." Such is their representation, al
though the resolutions adopted by the
Convention, and published some days ago,
show nothing of the kind. Senator Doug.
las is not named or referred to in them,
nor is any Presidential preference eT.
pressed or intmated They re-ayow the
doctrine of the Cincinnati Platform in ref
erence TO slavery in States and Territories
recognizing the Constitution Of the Uni,
tea States the supreme law on that sub
iect. And one of them is in the following
plain and comprehensive language;

gsA.Aeeordin. to the last advices from
the seat of war in Europe, decisive battle
was expected to take place about the 25th
or Goth OF June. Napoleon had called for
a Reinforcement Of one hundred thousand
men, and Austria, with her King as COM
mander in chief, was concentrating her
whole strength for struggle, the result
of which would be life or death to her.
In the meantime Prussia and all Ger.
mauy, are making the most formidable
preparations for war, apparently to operate
in support Of Austria, though this is de-
nicd; whilst Russia is making equally
formidable preparations avowedly in sup
port of France This al looks like get.
ting up pretty we'll matched contest.
The new British ministry is fully organ
lied. with Russell at its head. 1t will be
an able administration, but if Germany
and Russia become engaged in the present
struggle, they viii have quite enough to dc
to keep England in her present position
of neutrality,
The next news is looked for with great
anxiety.
