Ane committee on Revolutions, through lie
Chairman, h. 9. Filler, reported the following
resoiutons, which were almost unanimously
aoopteo as expressive of the views of the De-
mocracy Of Perry county:
hesotred, That We are in favor of ssthe Union
a. Il was and the Constitution ss Il is:n that
without the Constitution there can be no Union
ana no public liberty, that the doctrine and
practices OF Southern Seoeasionists and North.
ern ADolitionists are alike hostile and destruet-
i've % all their vital and cherished objects. We
are therefore INCREASINGLY opposed to the political
achon oi both these parties, and denounce them
a. traitors and enemies to the peace, prosperity
and happiness Of the people.
hesotved, That In this great national emer
geney' all true Union men, banishing all feel
ings OF mere passion or resentment, will re-
oollect only their duty to the whole country;
1nat tnis war should not be wsged upon our
part In any spirit of oppression nor for the pur.
pose OF conquest or subjugation, nor for she
purpose Of oVefthroWing or interfering with
the rights or established institutlons Of the
States, but to defend and maintain the suprem-
aoy of the constitution and TO preserve the
Union with all the dignity, equality and rights
Of the several States unimpaired, and that as
soon as these objects are accomplished the war
ought to cease +"
RESOLVED, That the noble and potriotic sons
OF this county and their fellow soldiers In
arms, who have gone forth TO protect the Gag Of
our Union and to defend the Constitution and
laws, are entitled TO our sympsthies and sup
port and to the gratitude Of the nation; and as
they are dePTiued the privilege of voting, Il be.
| comes the solemn duty of those ct home to 90
exercise the elective franchise as to aid them In
maintaining the Constitution, and thus defeat
those who would disgrace our noble army and
its gallant leaders, by making Il the instrument
In consummatiDg their Abolition .disunlon
schemes
ResoIued, That to maintain the constitution
90 it is and the Union as Il was, demands of ev.
cry patriot the same sacrifice that our reyolu.
tlonary fathers made to establish them; and 10
that end we pledge our lives, our fortunes and
our sacred honor for all constitutional and legal
purposes, but we deny that the Government
possesses any legal power to emancipate the
slaves In any Of the States, or TO extort taxes
from the people for the purchase Of the liberties
or the support Of negroes, and we protest
against any such usurpations.
Resolpsd, That as the frauds and peUulations
during the hrst year Of the present Administra.
tlon are more astounding and alarming, and
exceed In amount the entire expenditure Of
the Government for ell purposes for the same
length OF time under the preceding Admins
tration," We demand the offenders be exposed
and severely punished, whether they be Cabinet
officers or foreign Ministers, Governors oi
States or members Of Congress, Military Gen.
erals or private contractors.
| Resolved, That we are In favor of the passage
Of law to prohibit the immigration of negroes
into this State; and that the action of the domi
nant party 10 the Ohio Legislature last winter
in keeping open the doors FOR such immigration
against the petitions of $4,000 of the citizens o
Ohio, meets, as 1t deserves, with our mos
earnest condemnation.
II Resofped, That the Democracy of Perry osn 1ty
In Mass Meeting assembled, do heartily spprov,
Of the action of the Hon. VIM. E. Finck, on
able and worthy Senator, who 60 ably represent
ed the Democracy of this District In the Senatl
Of last winter; and also approve and indosse th,
action of the Hon. Dr.. Holden, our Representa-
tive, in the House Of Representative Of th,
last session. t
