The Democratic County Convention OF
Dubuque, held on the 18th, was unusually
large, and is entitled to more than ordinary
consideration at the present time, because
iss course foreshadows that OF the Demo.
cratic State Convention.
Ben. M. Samuels offered a resolution al
the opening OF the convention, pledgipg all
present to abide by the platform adopted,
&c, which was passed without any very de.
oided orpnaition. All tho prominent NEE Of
the party, including Samuels, Mahony, the
Wilson's, Hampstead, Qaigley and CLARK,
were present, and seem to have ooncurred in
that resolution al least, there was no pro.
test against it.
The resolutions adopted charge the origin
Of the war upon the Republican party; they
condemn the Administration and it's policy
rs subsereive OF the Constitution, deetruc-
tive OF the Union, and 10 oil things arbitrary
and tyrannical, and they insist on the call
OF q National Convention to arrange terms
Of compromise.
Upon State matters, the convention con
esntra.ed all its force upon two resolutions
which, ss they inaugurate . new war, VIC
publish for the benefit OF the public:
Resolved, That We are irreconcilably op.
posed TO ell paper m ney banking ~ being .

We must, Tor time submit 10 the Banking
system, We recommend that the Bank Law be
90 amended, as to make esch stockholdcr in-
dlyltually liable To thu full extent of his
property, not exempt from execution, for the
debts OF the Bank.
Resolved, That the many credulous we'll
