ga very long and very stupid set OF Res
oldtions, very full Of very bad grammar and
very high-falntn Rhetoric, were adopted BY
the democracy of Cecil at their Convention
last seek. The substance of the whole set
may be comprised in two very short senten-
ccs.
lst. The Cecil democracy declare for Doug
las and his Sqna'tcr Sovereignty doctrine.
2nd. Every man who isn't locofoco is
c,c-ncecssi'0fe, an aboltionst.
Now if we know anything OF the Cecil
democracy, il is, that thesuppor tiers Of Doug
las and the gettcrs up Of those resolutions and
the persons managing that Convention have
been over and over again Turned down by
Cecil democracy, and are not regarded as the
opponents Of or authority in matters relating
to the party creed.
BY what authority DO they speak for the
Cecil democracy and pass them over soul and
body to Douglas when they know, that the
large majority of the party regard him as
more Objectionable than the blacklist Repub-
ican, and that hundreds of them will not
allow themselves TO be brought into his sup.
port even by the whip of party discipline.
The charge of aboitionism. &C., contained
in those resolutions is the natural exclamation
OF these adherents of Douglas The cry Of
stop thief always comes loudest from the fell
low who has your watch in his pocket. To
hide their di>graccful support of this infamous
doctrine Of Squatter Sovereignty, and its no
less infamous aIthor, who refused to vote for
the Fugitive Slave law has uttered
more shrieks for fracdom than Wendell Phil.
lips-who has betrayed the North and cheat.
cd and humbuggcd the South, they cry out
abotionism; but the time is coming when
the little pack of Ilessians, who managed that
convention, and who for years past have been
fighting with whatever party promised the
best pay, either in personal profit or personal
revenge, will be unmasked

GJ"Mr. Pearce. quondam Wing Represcn-
tativc and Senator in Congress, has written
letter to the State Senator from Kent from
which the following is taken:
~ have given to the Democratic party a
CORDIAL and exclusive support since 1855, and
should acknowledge mysel utterly destitute
of personal honor if should now be willing
to receive the Democratic nomination for the
Senate, and yet have the faintcst idea of with
drawing from The support of their nomination
in favor Of any aomncc Of any other party
On the contrary, shall, whether elected by
the present Legislature or not, so with The
Democrats in support of the Charleston nom
lnee. and as certainly oppose his advcrsaries
Of whatever faith they may be-"
When we recollcct that this announcement
is made in full! view of the fact, that the nom
incc of the Charleston Convention will proba-
bly, be Stephen a. Douglas, who in 1852 de-
clarcd, that all experience had proved that
tic Wing Party were unfit to rule the coun-
try. y we regret exceedingly that Mr.. Pcarcc
should have So unreservedly confessed his
fealty to the locofoco party. There is de-
gree Of abasemcnt about this letter entirely
inconsistent with our prc-conceiyed idea of
Mr.. Pearcc's independent manhood "a want of
taste utterly foreign to that scholarly refine
ment which he is known to possess, and we
wonlcr that his classic memory d6 not call
up the story Of Gurth, as he quietly submitted
to have the brass collar of locofocoism fast
ened about his neck.

FIRE.-Iast Sunday evening about
S'clock, the frame dwelling honse ofWm. P.
Morgan, on his farm near this town, was dis
covered to be on fire. The N-igilant Fire
Company were soon on the spot with their
"Mcrsteen;" but on account of the scarcity
of water were unable to do anything toward
saving the building. Most of the furniture
was saved. There was an insurance on the
house Of $50, in the Cecil county Mutual
Insurance Company. The family except Mr..
Morgan,) were visiting in Baltimore, and he
says there had been no fire in the house since
Saturday morning. From different circum-
stances connected with this fire, there is good
reason to suspect that it was the work OF an
incendiary.
Mr.. Morgan requests us TO return h is thanks
to the citizens who SO noby assisted in at
tempting to quench the fire, and in saving his
goods.

FOR PRESIDENT,
EDW ARD BATES,
OF MISSOURI.

GITThe National Central Executive Com
mittee, headed by Hon. John j. Crlttcnden.
lave issued nm address to the peoplc, setting
forth the distracted state of the country, and
recommending. that convention be held
Immediately in each state of the conservative
opposition, which shall name two candidates
TOR the Presidency, one of whom, at least,
shall not be a resident Of the State in which
he is nominated, and that this convention
shall also send delegates to national conyen-
ton, to be held in Philadelphia. to select
candidate for President from those named by
the different State Conventions.
We do not design at this time to discuss
this political movement, but prefer to await
its further development aid then to judge it
ny its fruits. If its object is truly rational
and designed to defeat both Democrats and
Republicans by the election of a Conservative
Statesman to The Presidency, one whose name
is guarantee of peace and prosperity to the
country, the convention to be called will nom.
mate for President, Edward Bates, of Mis-
sour. Thus they will strengthen the Lands
of the conservative portion of the Republican,
party, and enable them so to control the
action of the Chicago Convention, as TO pre-
vent any nomination by that body, except, so
far as the endorsement Of the action. of the
Union Convention may be called nomination
