The following are the principal resolu-
tons adopted:
Be ii resolrcd By the Democratic party of
tho State Of Michigan IN convention assem-
bhd:
i. That we arc opposed to the doctrine
of the power Of Congress to intervene in
the affairs of the Territories, as enunci-
ated by the republican party at Chicago,
and by the seceders from the national
democracy at Baltimore; and that it is
cardinal principle of the democratic
faith that all institutions in the Terrific.
ries, whether of property or other ma.
ture, must occupy common legal basis,
without the Intervention of Congress
either to prohibit or establish them.
2. That we accept with hopeful zeal
the nomination of Stephen A. Douglas
aud Hcrschel V. johnson to the Offices
of President and Vice President of the
United States; that, in Mr.. Douglas con.
slstency, experience, and sagacity,--in
his unscctional patriotism, his indomita.
bic will, and his honest adherence to the
principle of non intervention, alike
against tho violence of an abolition mol
and the clamor of southern sccessionsts
we recognize that rare combination oil
qualities which enabled the immortal
jackson to face and destroy notification
and which have made the names of their
possessors, in all ages of the world, her.
itagcs of glory to their countries; tina,
10 democrats, both North and South, he
presents an example of energy and pluck
which need only be emulated by his sup.
porters to secure his triumphant election
and we regard the attempt to prescribe
him for his adherence to the principles Of
the party, by members of the Baltimore
convention, as an effort to stand between
the people and the man whom they had
already selected in their hearts, and al
opposition to his election as an abandon
ment of the democratic party. And We
do hereby pledge the electoral vote Of
Michigan to Douglas and Johnson as the
candidates of the national democratic
party Of the United States.
.. That we regret that some Of the
delegates to the late convention at Balti
more have espouscd the republican dog
ma of Congressional Intervention in tn,
affairs Of the Territories that we deem
the exercise Of such power by Con
gress undemocratic and contrary to til,
genius of free institutions; and that W,
have full confidence that the final decis
ion of the people of the South will pu
forever to rest the efforts of those politi
clans in their section whose action mus
inevitably lead to the eventual disruption
of thc Union aud the overthrow Of tn
consultation, established by our father
for themselves, for US, and for our pos
terity.
a. That we pledge ourselves to the re
form of every department of the Stat
government - to restore order to til
confusion which aow reigns State al
fairs--to rcinstatc her in the honesty O
the days Of S hn S. Barry-to retricv
her credit, refill her treasury, and to man
age her affairs with that economy whc
the people have right and ought I
demand of their public servants; an
that, as an earnest Of honesty and rcsc
Iuteness of purpose, we place before til
people ticket composed Of men who's
lives and characters challenge investiga
tion, and whose names, in their variou
localities, are the watcnwords OF hor
esty and personal confidence.
