Courts, except before jury in the Constitu-
tional District Courts Of the United States:
or to subject such persons to such trial, except
upon the Indictment of a grand jury. These
rights are guaranteed to every person, under
all circumstances, by the Constitution itself.
And we fully believe that the loyal people of
the United States are worthy of their fathers,
who framed the Constitution, and will be
found unwilling to surrender rights so sacred
and so essential to their Liberties.
We believe that the Executive acts of
which We complain, were done rather in inad-
vertency by subordinate officers, than in the
deliberate purpose of subverting the Consti-
tuition. or with the sanction of the President.
The stretch of power, however, is too great
and too dangerous to the Liberties of the peo-
pie, to pass without the protest of the free and
loyal Democracy. If done as part of full
and deliberate policy, they strike at the root
of American liberty, and we are drifting
from the safe anchorage of the Constitution
into an unknown wilderness of cruel waters.
Let whatever may come, the Democracy
will abide by their time-honered principles,
by the Constitution and the Union. 1--WE
viii neither surrender our rights, nor forsake
them. We will maintain our constitutional
liberty at all hazards, and as a nc cessary step
towards that end, we will maintain the Union
in like manner We are for the Constitution
as it is, and the Union as it was"
We call upon our brethren throughout the
State to organize the party for the coming
election of members of Congress. and of the
State Legislature We call upon them to
nominate as candidates tried and true Demo
crats, on strictly party principles, inviting the
support OF all persons, but acting in affiliation
with no other party or faction whatever. We
call upon them, for the sake of Liberty and
union, now and forever, one and inseparable. y
to exert all their constitutional right and
power to elect conservative men. who will not
basphemously assume to do any official act in
the name OF God, which cannot be done under
the sanction of the Constitution. So doing
the Democracy of Wisconsin will best serve
the cause of the Union, and give the highest
proof of their loyalty to the Constitution.
We claim the right on their behalf and our
own, TO censure the political acts of the Ad-
ministration, when we think that they deserve
it, and to do all lawfully within our power tc
sustain the supremacy of the Constitution in
all places North and South, and over all per.
sons in Office, and out of it. And so that END
we devote our hearts, minds and estates to ad
the Administration in the most vigorous anC
speedy prosecution of the war waged agains
the Union by the revolted States. We believe
that in so doing we fulfill the most sacred
duty we owe to the Constitution.
And to this, we solemnly pledge the faitl
Of our party and ourselves, until the war bt
ended and the Constitution restored, as tn,
supreme law of the land, in every State o
the Union.

THE PROCLAMATION.

The PRONUNCIATION Of the Presidents proclsma-
ton formally opening blockaded ports, Is most
important at this particular juncture. That is:
In view OF the fact that the emissaries Of and
sympathizeu with the rebellion are now ma king
last and most desperate effort to embrOil the
United States with France and England on ac-
count Of the blockade.
In addition to the ports Of Beaufort, N. c.,
New Orleans, La, and Port Royal, 5. C., opened
to-day, In few days the ports Of Norfolk, Va
Newbern and Washington, n. c., and Richmond
will doubtless be opened, and probably that Of
Mobile at the same time; TO be followed In thirty
days at farthest by the opening Of the ports Of
Pensacola, Fla and Savannah, Ga.
Or, In other words, In month hence every por'
Except 10 may be that Of Galveston, Texas,) on
our blocksded coast will be open to ships OF the
whole world by action Of the government Of the
United States.
Aprepos Of Mobile:-It 10 believed In naval cir
cles here that we are now certainly In possession
of that city.

SURRENDER OF REBEL DEsERTERs

SUhhENDEk Or REBEL DESEhTERS.
The steamer Wyandank arrived at the Navy
Yard about nine O'Clock this morning from the
mouth CT the Rappahannock, bringing up a mum.
Der Of seamen whose terms Of service have ex-
pired.
We learn from some Of her officers that the
Freedom and Island Belle on Saturday last cut
out Of the Piankatank river (which makes into
the Chesapeake about FIVE miles below the Rap
pshannock) two large sized schooners-one un.
loaded, and the other with an asserted cargo, the
larger portion being whisky.
After the schooners were got out, Capt. Harris,
with the Belle, proceeded some miles up the
river, and came across a band OF rebel de.erters,
numbering nearly Eve hundred, who had been
stationed On the York river. They stated that
they had been posted near Gloucester Point, and
belonged to a Virginia regiment, and when the
order was given to evacuate, they having become
tired Of the secesh service, resolved 70 march to-
wards the Federal lines with a view Of surren-
dering themselves. They proposed 10 lay down
their arms and give themselves up, but Captain
Harris having no means to remove them, admin
istered the oath Of allegiance to them, which was
willingly taken, aud LEFT them with their arms TO
protect themselves
The leland Belle had just arrived as the wyan-
dank LEFT, Monday at one o'clock a. M conse-
quenty we are unable 10 give further particulars.
