Our columns to-day, says Baltimore Ameri-
can Of yesterday, contain important political
intelligence N bearing upon the approaching
ton Of the friends of Mr. Douglas III Mary

day, was fully attended, and acted with
prompt determination. A full electoral
ticket was nominated, AID resolutions unan
imously adopted endorsing Mr. Douglas as
the regular nominee Of the Democratic par

cratic State Convention in New York has
arranged union ticket with the friends of
Mr.. Bell, by which the strength Of both par
ties will be joined in the endcavor to defeat
the Republicans in that State. In Penn.

Dear Sii+:-Are we, the citizens of the
United States. mot in desperate condition !
Is not the Democratic party on the brink
of ruin? On tie one hand we Eave Brock
inridge, and on the other we have Doug
las. Breckenridge is il favor of Congress
protecting negroes in the Territories, and
Mr.. Douglas is not, and is willing for the
people of any and all Territories TO settle
their domestic affairs" among themselves,
and IN their own way. Mr.. Douglas thinks
Congtess has not power to legislate in re-
gard to slavery in the Territories. Mr..
Breckihridge is Of the opinion that Con-
grcss has the right. And thus we stand-
the Democratic party North, and the Dem
ocratic party South at least, it appears 50
to many Of the party. l wish you to IN
form us, whether or not, if Mr.. Breckin-
ridge is elected, aoe will get protection in tie

what either Of them can do about the negro
question IN or out Of the Presidential Chair.
Is not the whole power in Congress. Who
has the majority in Congress-the South
or the North Will not the North have a
majority in Congress all the time If the
Southern members Of Congress should open
the way Of legislating in Congress, would
not the North follow suit two to one'', and
legislate slavery out ofevery Territory that
may be thrown open to settlement by the
American people. There should be some
thing done in this State and throughout the
Union for uN1oN-for it is evident to my
mind that unless something is done to har-
monte the Democratic party, 'Old Abe

SPANISH EXCEPTION TO MExIco Let
ters were received in New Orleans by the

the Constitutional Government had received
certain information that large and impos,

believed. however. the expedition, IS IF a
hostile character, any further than this, that
it is designed to lend moral support to the
Miran1on or Church faction Of Mexico. In
connection with this subject it is stated that
the greatest preparations are being made in

ton to che sea-eoast, in view of which the

Resolved, That we protest against the
usurpation of the Stale Executive Commit

as far as the Presidential election is con-
cerned, place ourselves under the direction
of the National Committee. :,
Resolved, That it is evident the Brock
enridge faction in all the States in which
Douglas is likely to defeat Lincoln, have
no other object in presenting Breckinridge
ticket than the defeat Of Douglas.
Resolved, That all measures Of concilia-
ton having failed, we do now proceed to
the formation of an electoral ticket, pledged
to the support Of Stephen A. Douglas and
Herschel V. johnson.
Resolved, That we do also select alter
mates to act as Douglas electors, in case any
of the Reading electors refuse to serve on
the ticket; and failing to complete the list,
the duty is referred to a committee Of seven
to be appointed by the Chairman. to- act
with this committee in districts whore such
