Resolutions of New Hampshire Ders-
ocratic state Convention.
The following resolutions were unanimously
adopted hy the State Convention Of the Democ.
racy of New Hampshire held on the 9Th inst The
Boston Post says "tbe attendance was large and
the proceedings were marked by enthusiasm and
unanimity. In many respects it was regarded as
one of the best gatherings of the party ever held
in the State" We call attention to the senti-
ments and spirit OF the resolutions which are al
most identical with those passed by the Demo
cratic State Convention of our own State held
on the same day. The coincidence is remarka-
BILE. Tie principles euunciated BY those two
Conventions are those which viii be placed

upon taking the chair, reiterAte cordially:
at is time for action. not for talking, and that
action Is to preserve the Constitution and uphold
our flag. Let US preserve our liberties or perish
in the attempt"
Resolved, That we adhere 70 the old landmarks
Of the Democratic faith, as expounded by the
school of jefferson, Madison and jackson, viz:
a strict construction of the Constitution; econo-
my in public expenditures; the protection Of the
rights of the States and the Liberties of the peo
pie; no consolidation Of power in the Federal
Government; no United States Bank; and no
imposs system except for the purposes of reve
nue..
Resolved, That we denounce Northern aboli
tionism and Southern secession as the CO opera
ting sources of our present calamites-alike
reasonable to the Constitution and inimical 10
the Union. The only way 10 a restored Union
and respected Constitution, with returning peace
and prosperity, is through the overthrow Of the
enemies TO both.
ResOlued, That the Constitution is the supreme
law of Hand, and no State has the right to Sc
cede therefrom, and dissolve its connection with
the Union which that Constitution was made 10
secure, except for causes which win Justify revo
luton.
Resolued, That the duty of the General Gov.
ernment to suppress all attempts to dissolve the
Union, is imperative and can not be evaded.
Resolved, That neither the President nor Con.
gress can constitutionally entertain any PROPOSE
ton which has for its object the dismemberment
OF the Government or the dissolution Of the
Union.
Resolved, That in this national emergency
banishng all feelings Of mere passion or resent
ment, the Democracy Of New Hampshire will
recollect only their duty to the whole country.
that this should not be waged in any spirit Of
oppression, or for any purpose Of conquest or sub
jugaton, or for the purpose OF authorizing or in
terfering with the rights or established ifstitu-
tons of any of the States, but to defend and
maintain the supremacy of the Constitution, and
the rights of all the States in the Union, and to
preserve the Union; and that soon as these OBJ
jects are accomplished the war will close.
ResolUed, That, in the language of Andrew
jackson, "The Federal Union must and shall be
preserved"
Resolued, That in the loyal States now EXEMPT
from the presence Of troops and the necessity of
military government, we do not believe in the
right nor the expediency of abolishng due free
dom of speech and the press by force, whether ex-
- - 49,
prisoning men BY letters de cafckef or mandates in
any form issued by the President of the United
States or Secretary Of State without the authori-
ty Of Law, and depriving them of the right of le-
gal examination and trial and the benefit of the
law of habeas corpus, justly regarded by all true
friends of personal freedom as the great writ Of
liberty; and that consider all such acts un.
warranted by the Constitution and as tending to
despotism, by familiarizing the people with the
acts and instruments Of despotism.
Resoloed, That the complete arrest of the
pr0figate and corrupt expenditures Of the pub
lie moneys, in our National and State admins
trations, exposed by the recent Congressional in
vestigation and BY other disclosures. the entire
discontinuance of unnecessary Offices and agen-
cies, with their ex0rbitant compensafions for par
ty rewards and private gain. and the most strict
accountability and economy in National and State
affairs, are imperative duties the faithful perfor
alOuc
cy and subsequent defeat, and render the exces-
sive burdens OF the present contest tolerable 10
the people
RESOLVED That we honor the brave men who,
with patriotic motives, have left their bones to
encounter the priyations and perils Of The war;
and il is one of the first duties of our friends in
the several cities and towns Of the State, by pri-
vate benefactons, 70 provide that that their fami
lies come to no want in their absence.
Resolved That we approve Of the action Of the
President in the matter Of the Trent, and only
regret that decision right in itself was delayed
for peremptory demand from Great Britain.
Resolved, That the Democracy, having been
always true and faithful to the Union, maintain
ing its interests and dignity in war and in peace,
against the assaults of foreign foes and the
Vaccinations of downright traitors, in order TO
become Union Party il is not necessary for
them TO abandon their organization nor abjure
their name; that if any party should abandon its
organization il is that party which has been in
the wrong, and which now retains in Its embrace
aud fellowship the elements Of Abolition treason
which is as fatal to the existence Of the Union as
Secession treason: that we believe that the Union
cannot be restored until the principles and spirit
of Democracy prevail in the administration Of
the Federal Government and among the masses
of the people. That the triumph Of the Demo
cratic party offers the only hope Of awakening
the Union sentiment of the South. which can be
aroused only BY the assurance of safety and pro
lection in the Union therefore we invite the trse
and patriotic of all parties TO rally under the flag
of the Democracy the only sure means by
which the present war can be brought to an hon
orable close.
Resolved, That taking our position resolutey
upon these principles we give our banner 70 the
breeze with honor for guide and Stark and
Cheney for our leaders.
