~ Under which King, Bezonian! Speak
Die :"

In another portion of this days paper we
give resume of the proceedings of the National
Democratic Convention held at Baltimore, and
also of the Meeting held by a portion of the
Convention, who deemed it their duty to with
draw from the regular organization and set up
for themselves.
Having been born and bred" in the Demo-
cratic faith-beleying in the fundamental prin-
ciple of the organization, that the voice of the
majority, when in council, shall rule-always
Eaving fought with all our might all boilers and
seceders-being fully impressed with the con-
viction that upon the preservation of the Dem
ocratic party depends the safety Of the Union
and it appearing fact beyond question that the
regular National Democratic Convention was
conducted in accordance with the time -honored
asages Of the party, we have no hesitation in
promptly ayowing ourselves ardent supporters
of its nominees, and fling to the breeze the old
fashioned Democratic flag, with the names OF
the regular nominees .hereon-DoUeLks and
JOHNSON ! {" Sink or swim, survive or perish,
we will remain upon the deck of the old time
honored Democratic ship, once commanded by
a Thomas Jefferson and an Andrew Jackson
As long as one plank remains so long will we.
When the party has sunk beneath the waves
forever, then will we look out for some other
boat, but not until then. If wa are to die now,
we prefer to- die inside of the portals of the
Church. Ifdefeat comes upon the party, as the
seceders appear determined it shall come, why,
for one, we prefer the calamity shall reach US
while proving our party fidelity, rather than
when in the very act of waging an unnatural
war upon our political alma mailer.
Douglas and johnson are, beyond all ques-
ton, the nominees of the Democratic National
Conv ention.. No fair man can really believe the
contrary. mere fraction of the entire Con-
vention-abort -third-ieft the regular Con-
rention, and assembled in another part of the
city, while two-thirds remained and performed
the work which they were elected to do. The
reports that the Democratic Convention had
bursted up were false. There was no burst up
about it. minority who could not rule the
majority, bolted seeded, withdrew from the
Convention, and then the Convention, when the
bubbub had subsided, proceeded quietly, regu-
arly and legitimstely to business. The result
was the nomination of Douglas and Johnson
Believing that every Democrat is in honor bound
to support this action and these nominees, we
purpose from now until the day of election, with
pen and with tongue, to advocate the cause of
the time -honored and glorious old Democratic
party. We would have done precisely the same
had jeff Davis and Yancey been nominated by
the National Democratic Convention. We never
did bolt, and we think we never will.

Bah 1T makes one sick to read the stuff
with which the Bulletin, Aha and Times have
recently been reeking, relative to the failure of
the Courts to punish Judge Terry for killing
Senator Broderick in duel. These hypocrites
profess to deplore the result for the reason that
the law being left unexecuted, the judiciary
will thereby be lessened in the respect of the
people These same fellows and their friends
few years ago trampled on the law and the Con-
stitution, defed the entire Executive power of
the State, and, in violation of all lawful author
ity, deprived American citizens of their lives
in the eyes of the law and the Constitution
committed deliberate murder And yet we have
never heard them complain because the violated
and outraged laws had not been vindicated by
their execution upon the gallows or their incar-
ceration within the walls of the State Prison =

ADDITIONAL RESOLUTION following nd
ditional resolution to the Charleston platform
was offered in the regular Democratic Conven-
ton at Baltimore, by Gov. Wickliff, of Louisi-
ana, and adopted:
Resolved, That it is in accordance with the
Cincinnati platform, that during the existence
OF Territorial Governments, the measures of re-
strictor. whatever they may be, imposed by the
Federal Constitution on the power of the Terri
torial Legislature, over the subject of the do
mestic relations, as the same has been, or shall
hereafter be, finally determined By the Supreme
Court of the United States, should be respected
by all good citizens, and enforced with prompt
ness and fidelity by every branch of the Gene
raj Government.
Now, can any Democrat who IS really in favor
of the preservation of the unity of the Demo-
cratic party, and opposed to the disunion
schemes of the Yanceyites, ask for more than is
embodied in this resolution2 Take this reso-
luton and compare it with the seceders plat
form and if the two are not found to amount to
the same thing in the end, then we are nightly
mistaken. The question involved is simply a
judicial question, as Mr. Buchanan stated in his
first message, and one that can be settled by the
Supreme CoErt alone. OF course both sides.
