California DcmO mOcruts sustnIn-
Ing the gOvernmcnt.

The following resolutions passed at the
recent Democratic Convention in Cali
fornia have quite another ring from those
engineered At Columbus for "Union Dem.
ocrais" and "other Union men"
Readthem and see how much better II
is for men 10 make manly speech in these
times when true manhood is priced wher.
ever found.
LIST. That at this time, when the coun-
try Is resisting war Of invasion and dcH-
truction, indifference is impossible 90 the
patriot, and neutrality is cowardice, IL
not premeditatod disloyalty.
2d. That the people of California In
the past have been most anxious for
peace throughout the land, and will hail
with joy an honorable adjustment in the
future; at the same time they are above
all things for the Urion, the country and
the flag, against oil assbi ants, no matter
who they arc, whence they conc, or with
what power armed.
Sd. That in this great crisis Of the
American notion and name our State will
always, as heretofore, discharge her con-
stitutional obligations to the Union aud
federal government, and, as in duty bound
will earnestly sustain the constituted au-
thoritics at Washington in all measures
necessary to defend and protect either
against the most unjusufable and unnat-
ural war.
4. That in the name ofthe loyal people
of the State Of California, we demand of
the general government, by all lis power
TO protect their lives and property on the
high seas, between this coast and the At
lantic, from the pirnticu flag, which al
ready threatens injury, and would inhict
destruction on both
9th. That in the present ovorwhelm-
ing crisis he who would seek, by reyiving
past partisan issues, to distract the peo-
pie or to wrest from their honest and pa
triotic devotion some sordid partisan adj
vantage, is not true TO the country nor
worthy the name of an American citizen.
9th. That we hold our paramount al
legiance due to the Federal G Government;
that the right Of State secession Is a
dangerous heresy, inevitably destructive
of our form Of government.
9TH. That obedience TO the constitu-
tional will Of majorites is the only safe
guard Of republican governments; that we
will uphold the constituted authorities,
under all circumstances and at all hazards,
in maintaining federal jurisdiction in it's
sphere, regardless Of what party may be
in power.

Resolutions Passed by the Coz
lumbus Convention, Aug.sth.

The Democracy and other Union mon
OF Ohio in Convention assembled, adopt
and declare the following resolutions as
the basis upon which they appeal TO all
patriotic Union and liberty-loving citi-
zens to unite and rally in support Of this
ticket this day presented.
/. Resolved, That the civil war by
which our country is at present distracted,
is the natural offspring of misguided sec
tionalism, engendered by funntical ngita-
tors North as well as South; and that the
Democratic party have equally opposed
the extremists Of both sections, and hav-
ing at all times zealously contended for
the administration of the General Gov
ernment within lis constitutional limits,
that party is in no way responsible for
the colamities that have resulted from a
departure from its doctrines, and disre-
gard Of its warning and advice.
2. That in this National emergency,
the Democracy and other Union men of
Ohio, banishinR all feeling Of passion OF
resentment, will recollect only their duty
TO the whole country; that this war should
not be ragged Ia spirit Of oppression, nor
Tor any purpose Of conquest or subsection,
nor purpose Of overthrowing or intarfer-
ing with the rights or established insti-
tutions Of the States, but to defend and
msintain the supremacy Of the Constitu-
ton and TO preserve the Union with all
the dignity, equality, and rights Of the
several States unimpaired d that as
soon as these objects are accomplished,
the war ought to cease.
8. That while we deem Il the duty Of
every citizen TO Fuppori and sustain the
Government, constitutionally admins
tered, we recomend that the Legislatures
Of the several States adopt the proper
m easures for calling National COnven-
.ion for the purpose ofssttling our present
difficulties, and restoring and preserving
the Union. ..........''
4. That the corruption, extravaRance,
incompeteney and favOritism, shown IN
the administrations Of the War Depart
ments Of the State and Federal Govern
ments, deserve andTec i've eur unqualified
condemnation, and ought 70 be immedi-
ately corrected and reformed
8. That the volunteer soldiers who, al
the call Of their country, promptly went
forth TO do battle IN defence Of its Con-
stitution and its Laws, and who, in many
cases, have been compelled TO fight un-
der inexperienced officers, are entitled 70
our hearty thanks for the gallant manner
in which they have discharged their du-
ties.
9. That the privilege Of tho writ oil
hSbeas corpus is one ofthe greet bulwarks
OF freedom, and that no citizen can be
legally deprived Of tho benefit thereof
except by Congress, aud then only 10 case
Of rebellion or invasion, when the public |
safety may require Il, and that the late at |
tempt Of the President Of the United
States to suspend the privilege Of the
same is uuwarIanbed BY the Federal Con-
stitutOn, ..r,r |

How just arc the retributions Of hlgto-

Claiborne f. Jackson led one Of these

citizens from the polls. To-day, the pois-

late Lieut.. Governor, Is a German low,
born on the Prague; his former name was

South Carolina, he advocated the right
Of Secession, and did much to poison the

6rPhe Manassas correspondent OF
the Savannah Republican says;
] am convinced Of one thing, that all
this talk about the federalists being
starved, unclothed, and unenthdslastic
is all fudge, We cannot begin TO com
pare with them in the perfection Of
equipments and genral pfopdrstions.--
Their kner sacks were ihll, their blankets
are magnif cent; their osnteens and other
eonyeniences are ingenious; their medi-
cal &C accommodations are superb. II Is
all fudge, too, about their enlistment
from coercion, and not knowing they
are to hght us. They tell us such teles
to mitigate their imprisonment. They
are eute--shrewdness Is Yankee char

do not know you are speaking 10 a Vir-

That you gave me from June till September
When you sent me 50 cOldly away.
When We sat on the door.sleps together,
And moon.tinged cloud We described,
How We spoke Of a change in the weather
And then said nothing and-aouED.
And though il was getting some colder,
Our hearts grew unusually warm,
When slyly leaned on your shoulder
Aud you on my timorous arm.
When at the pale moon we were stareing
And thought Of much more than we said
God knows how the heart was faring
While The hand was a stroking the head.
Come tell me, has all been forgottcnS
I'm doubling, and doubts do deceive;
Doubts, too, have much sorrow bego;len
And they only are blessed who-hrlixvr

My DEAR SIR Your note oCtho 97tb
ult., inquiring as to whether Lawrence
county will be represented in the Conven-
tion appointed by the State Democratic
Executive Committee, 20 meet in Colum-
bus the 18th proximo, and also asking my
opinion as 20 the ptopriCty of separate
party action at this time, is before me.
The Democracy Of this county have
determined not TO respond 10 the call of
the State Executive Committee, and this
county will not bo represented in the
Convention.
Since the elimination Of the Southern
conspiracy but two political parties have
existed in the United Stutcs. One COM
posed OF the insurgent conspirators. with
official perjury and High Treason embla-
zoned upon their foreheuds--the other is
composed of the friends Of the Constitu-
tion and laws of their country.
Both of these parties have passed from
theory to combat The iute Of this gov
ernment is now 10 be determined by the
sword on the field of battle. THERE'S no
neutral ground TO occupy. Indeed, neu-
trality is the atheism Of politics.
Free government and the great inter-
ests Of civilization are now put In the
balance against embittered treason.
cannot hesitate as to the path OF duty in
this emergency. II is to maintain tho
government at whatever cost of blood or
treasure. To do this eff ctually against
the formidable demonstrations made by
its enemies, demands the united wisdom
and strength Of all the friends Of consti-
tutionOl liberty. Therefore, any party
action at this time, based on efIete organ.
iEations and ideas, would, in my opinion
be likely to give "aid and comfort 70 the
enemy" and perhaps embnrrass the ope-
ra'ions Of the government in its efiortl
to crush the rebellion.
Truly yours,
RALPH LEETE.

in most things it is unattainable how
