Frank, and Wan!y,-The Democrats
OF "Oid Berks" do not "stab under the
fifth rib" the Government, by denounciDg
its Administration in its death grappie
with the mcanest, foulcst rebellion creation
ever saw since proud Lucifer was cast out
of heaven. In their late County COnven-
ton, they came fairly and squarely up to the
duty of true patriots-wilhout any VIII
ninss about Peace" or "Compromise," "
by adopting the following Resolutions,
unanimously:
"ResoIrel L. That the Democratic Party
of the County of Berks, in Delegate Con
ycntion mbled, reatiirms its ardent and
tuUalteTable attachment to the Union, and
opposes any attempt at separation Of tie
,Siu,eS as a measure fraught with unquali-
fed evil, and with ultimate ruin TO erery
Sccfioa of The comry.

cran.cat of the United States, IN every con-
stitu, nal eff >rt to sustain the cause of the
Union and to suppress tie present Re5etf''a.
). That it is emineutly proper to prose
cute the existing war with vigor, IN order
that II may be sooner J'oGyat to success-
tm tcrmination."
The Democratic Convention of Pbilad.
and several other counties have been as
uneqivoclIly "straigbi" as those of Berks.
They did not condemn, or seek to enbar-
rass, or prejudice the people against, THE
OFFIcERs, who are the Agents of the Gov
ernmenf, without whom it is dead-Dor
did they proclaim tha. Slavery should re-
ceive no damage in this Slaveholders' War.
The Unionists are pouring out their money
and their blood for Liberty and Law, aud
no, for Slavery aud Anarchy.

PRESIDENT JEFFERSON sustained Gen.
Wilkinson in his refusal to obey a writ OF
habeas corpus, at New Orleans, during the
Burr Conspiracy" (Which did not become
open PsLeiioa) Ii acted as Gen Jack
son did at New Osleaus, iu 1915, and as
Pres. Lincoln does nov. Said ThosJcfer-
son, in letter to J. Il. Colvin, Esq, uuder
date of Sept. 20, 1919:
"The question you propose, whether
circumstances do sometimes occur which
makes it duty in officers of high trust TO
assume authorities beyond the law, Is easy
of solution 10 principle, but sometimes em-
barrassiug iu practice. n street observ-
ance of the written law is doubtless one oil
the high duties Of good citizen, but 1t Is
not The highest The laws OF necessity, OF
self preservation, of saving our country
when in danger, are of higher obligation.
To lose our country by scrupulous ID
herence to written law would be 10 lose the
law itself, with life, liberty, property, and
all those who are enjoying them with US /;
thus absurdly sacrificing tae end to the
means.
"From these examples and principles,
YOU NAV see what think on the question
proposed. They do not 60 to the case OF
rersous charged with petty duties, where
Consequences are trifing and time allowed
for legal course, nor to authorize them
10 take such cases out of the written law.
In these the example of Overlapping the
law is of greater evil than a strict adher'
ence to its imperfect provisions. II Is in-
cumbent on those only who accept OF great
charges to risk themselves on great oeci-
sioas, when the safety Of the nation or
Some of its very high Interests are at
stake"

A correspondent calls attention to the in.
efficient aud datOry manner 10 which the car
goes of the transports at Port Royal are said
10 have been landed. 1t is well known that in
the Crimea, in 50 and SO, many of the trans
port vessels were hired by the day, week, or
month; and it is a notorious fact that the car
goes were discharged as slowly as possible
every impedmept being thrown in the way of
the unloading. The consequence was, OF course,
that q weeks work was done in month.
Our correspondent declares it to be his belief
that something Of the same nature has been
going on at Port Royal, and that much time
has been wasted in order that the owners OF
the hired vessels may gain more from the bar
gain. 1t seems hardly credible that such can
be the case, but if it is it should be made
known; and if any delay in unloading cargoes
has seemed to give color TO such a suggestion,
the delay should be explained.

or the value to be attached to the specua-
tions Of the English press on American affairs
some idea may be formed from the fact, that
nearly all the papers received by the last mail
confidently predict the failure of the great
Naval Exped ton. To its enterprise" says
The Examiner "n DO one on this side Of the
" Atlantic anticipates success" Even If o
landing is effected it declares that "tbe troops
{" will be in the midst of hostile population,
" aud less able to advance than even the army
4" OF the Potomac. We anticipate here another
victory for the Coniederates." So too, The
Spectator says: " The Expedition will probably
=" do very lite, for, as we sa d, it is composed
Of raw men, but its failure W II simply lead
Z" 10 other and stronger efforts. The Americans
have, in warllke alairs, everything TO learn. y
1t is probable that in these Vaccinations the
wish was father to tbs thought; yet It is not
without reason that the English distrust the
issue of naval expeditions on great scale.
Almost ali which they themselves have under
taken, have been sgoal failures. Their expe-
dtons to WalchereD, to BuenOS Ayres, aud to
New-Orleans, are among the most calamltous
on record.
