ty-Read and Understand, il you Can.


We give, entire, the resolutions adopted by
Haun, Magruder, Llndley, Hatch, aud their
companions, who held small piece ofa Coun-
ty Convention in this city on Thursday, for
the purpose of choosing delegates TO the
Grand Encampment of the Knights Of the
Golden Circle at Sacramento, June 1lth. We
submit them to the Union Men of the State
as the very best joke of the season.
1t will be seen that the Lindleyites favor
the reception by the Government of rebel
Commissioners for the purpose of negotiating
a peace, and desire California to stand as
Burke and Pitt did in our Colonial struggle,
Ii. e., friendly to the revolutionary cause)
deploring separation, but denying the pol
icy of subjugation.'

THE RESOLUTIONS.
Resolued That the avowal of William H.
Seward in $780, that there is Higher
Law than the Constitution" and his suisse
quent avowal that the conflict is irrepres-
sible the rapid growth OF the Republican
party upon these sentiments-the repudia-
tion 10y the State governments of the plain
! letter of the Constitution, and of the deci-
sions of the Supreme Court upon the slavery
guarantees-the aggreasions upon the inst-
tuition of slavery through the medium of the
Republican press, orators and pulpits, with
direct tendency to produce servile insurrec-
tions the final concentration of Republican
will in the Chicago Platform, eliminating in
the election of President Lincoln and the
appointment of the author of the Higher
Law and the irrepres>ible conflict theo-
res, as premier of his Administration, carry
ing with them, conclusion TO The South
ern mind, the apparent final adoption, by a
ma ior;y of States, of the doctrine that mordl
lao and natural right as viewed from their
stand-points, are paramount to the Con-
sttution the total disregard by the admin
istraton of the supplicatons of the conserv-
alive Border States for a peace policy; all
these things have alarmed the whole South,
and have provoked and expanded into fearful
pgo ort ons the present revolution.
ReSoiged, That, while we deny that the
causes are sufficient to justify the hazardous
and sanguinary plan of reyolution-whiie
we condemn, in unmeasured terms, the mode
and manner adopted 10y the South for re-
dress, seeking security for their rights out of,
rather than IN, the Union, without needing
the sincere petitions of the Border States
while our destlnies are with the Government
in this struggle, and we love and revere the
flag of our country and the Constitution as
our fathers made it, and while we stand
pledged to protect and defend both, and pre-
serve the honor, the integrity and the pres
tige of power of hGt nation with whose
destiny we are linked, and whose honor is
our honor-while we charge that the revo-
lutoniots, 10y unjastiliabe precipitation aud
violence, are more Immediately responsible
for the present unhappy condition of our
people-while we can admit that the purpo-
ses of many of the masses of the Republ-
can party have been honest and pirilantAro-
pic but, who are now witnessing consequent
ces of their principles and policy, unftrseen
and unexpected 10y them still we will not
deny the truth of history, and therefore, be-
fore God, the civilized world, and our coun-
try, we charge the Republican party of the
nation as being the great primary cause Of
plunging the best, the happiest, the most
powerful and prosperous nation on earth
into, what now promises to be, the most ter
rible civil and sectional war ever known in
the history of the world.
HeS9ieea, That we recognize our country
in an actual state of war and whatever may
have been the primary or secondary cause
whatever may have been the wrongs on ell
ther side whatever may have been the diff
ferent opinions of individuals or political
parties as to the duty and policy of the Ad
ministration on the question of the With
dra wal of troops and the removal of all
causes of irritation, with view of peaceful
solution and accommodation, or the summary
application of the military arm to subdue the
revolution; whatever may be the natural and
humane sympathies of individuals for kith
and kin in native States-yet all must accept
our political condition as it is, and it becomes
the duty of all, as good citizens, TO use all
constitutional efforts to sustain the Union
and honor of or nation, and to strive to in
lluence and constitutiunally control its pol
icy.
Resolped, That California, as State, can
not take a neutral position in this trying cri-
sis of our country; that she must either re-
main in the Union or go ont of it that we
intend she shall remain in it, loyal to the
Constitution and the National Flag
Resoiyc9, That it is the solemn duty of our
State to contend in the Congress of the Union
for peace, and urge the reception of Commis-
sioners with the vtew of agreeing upon a
peaceful settlement Of our difficulties 10y guar
antees aud union. Ifthis should fail, then
let California stand lin Congress( on this see
| tional contest hetwee her common parents
as did Burke and Pitt in the Commons on the
seven years struggle between England and
her colonies, deploring separation but deny
ing the policy of suhjugation
ReSolped, That the Democratic party of
this Nation has ever recognized the Constitu-
ton of our country as the highest law in the
land and, with the watchwords, "The Union
and tie Constitution" carried our country
safely through all its trials, and in view Of
the impending peril, it is the duty of all good
citizens to rally to the standard Of that party
which has ever recognized the obligation of
the Constitution upon all, and the constitu-
tional right of all under it, and rescue if pos
sible. our whole country and her institutions
! from both Northern and Southern fanaticism :;
and present or accept any plan of peaceful
solution which can be honorably adopted by
