Is IT TREAsoN?-At the Republican Con.
vention which nominated Lincoln for the
Presidency, the following resolution, among
others, was unanimously adopted. Cons;d'
erii its source, il sounds queerly and rebukl
es lis authors:
THAT the maintenance inviolae of the
rights of the States, and especially Of the
right of each State to order and control its
own domestic institutions according to its
own iudgme 1t exclusively. is essential to that
balance of powers on which the perfection
and endurance of our political fabric depends;
and we denounc9 the lawless invasion by
armed force Of the soil of any State or Ter
rtnry, no matter under what preIence, as
the gravest of crimes"
The above expressed by a Democratic
Convention would he considered treason;
but it is left for a Republican Convention 1
thus to speak and adopt that which they
denounce treason in Democrats To sup
port the Government is treason-to sustain
the Administration is patriotic.

not be deprecated by exchange brokers or
swinding bankers We hope there is no
harm in quoting his views with regard to
paper currency" Said he: 1.-The Constitu
ton of the United States unqueslionably
intended to secure to the people circulating
medium of gold and silver. am and ever
have been opposed to all kinds of Govern
ment paper currency, let it be derived from
exchequer or otherwise. A national paper
currency is a great curse to the aborer of
the country for its depreciation always falls
upon the laborer."
THE uuMBUG G.. n SANDERS The Mont
gomsry (Ala) advertiser of September
SAYS:
We are every day surprised at the conse
quenre .icen to the preensions of George
N. Sanders, by Southern newspapers copyl
ing and enarging upon the sensation items
from the Northern papers, in relation to his
passage to Europe. The idea that our Gov
ernment would depute such a man on any
important mission is too ridiculous to be
entertained for a moment, and has, OF
couise, very naturally grown out of Georges
inflated accounts of himself as he passed
through the North and Canada.
REBEL MurINY.-Tbe Vicksburg Wing rel
lates that Capt. B. S. Tappan, jr., formerly
District Attorney of New Orleans was kiln
cd by party of his men ouscripts-whom
he had forced into the rebel service. 1t oc-
cured at Bayou Lafourche. The men mutt
nied-he attempted to prevent it-they
shot him, and one other captain and lieut..
tenant. The Wing says:
The murlerers were a wild set of oyster
men and boatmen linen without manliness
or magnsnimity. They Immediately took
refuge under the gunboats of the enemy,
with whom they had concerted plan of

the fight was to be renewed.
Fort Monroe, Feb. 19.-By q flag of
truce to-day we learn that Fort Donelson

Generals Johnston and Buokner were
taken, with Is, 900 other prisoners.

more regiments were captured to-day, to

Der of troops have GENE in and delivered
themselves up. About $4,000 stand of
