THE RESOLUTIONS.
PesOlUed, That in the future, as in the past we
will adhere with unswerving fidelity to the Union
under the Constitution the only solid foundation
Of our strength security and happiness as q people,
and as framework Of government equally conduo-
i've to the welfare and prosperity of all the States
Resosed That att this Eonvention does explicitly de-
clare, the sense Of the American people, that after
four years Of failure TO restore the Union by the
q military necessity Or war power higher than the
Constitution the Constitution itself has been disre-
garded in every part, and public liberty and private
right alike trodden down and the material prosperity
Of the country essentially impaired Justice, human
ity, liberty, and the publ welfare demand that i'm
mediate efforts be made for cessation Of hostties,
with viewto an ultimate convention Of the States,
or other peaceable means, to the end that at the
lest practicable moment peace may be restored on
ResoLUed That the direct interference Of the mil
itary authorities Of the United States in the recent
elections held in Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, and
Delaware, was shameful violation Of the C6nstitu-
tom and repetition of such acts in the approach
ing election will be held revolutionary, and
sisted with all the means and power under our con-
trol. ItF
Resolred, That the aim and object Of the Demo-
cratic party is TO preserve the Federal Union and the
rights Of, the States unimpaired; and they hereby
usurpatiOn of extraordinary and dangerous powers
not granted by the Constitutions; the subversion Of
the civil by military law in States not in insurrec-
ton; the arbitrary military arrest, imprisonment,
trial and sentence of American citizens in States
where civil law exists in full force the suppression
Of freedom of speech and of the press the denial of
the right of asylum; the open and avowed disregard
Of State rights; the employment of unusual test
oaths and the interference with and denial of the
right of the people to bear arms in their Defense is
calculated to prevent restoration Of the Union, and
the perpetuatiOn of government deriving its just
powers from the consent Of the governed.
Resolred That the shameful disregard Of the Ad-
minstraOn to its duty, in respect to our feowcti-
zens who now are and long have been, prisoners Of
war in suffering condition, deserves the severest
reprObaton on the score alike of public policy and
common humanity. ..
ResOlred, That the sympathy Of the Democratic
party is heartily and earnestly extended to the SOL
dery of our army and sailors of our navy, who are
and have been in the field and on the sea, under
the flag of their country and in the event of its at
tanning power, they will receive all the care protee-
ton and regard that the brave soldiers and sailors
of the Republic have so noby earned,

THE ARMY VoTE.-The Washington cor
respondent of The Chicago Tribune, Il Vi
olent Abolition organ, says:
THAT the political feeling in the army is
extremely unsettled there is no doubt. 1t
contains so many diverse elements and is the
victim of such a vast amount ofpolitical ma
nipulations, it is not to be wondered at that
there is little unity of political sentiment
Add to this the fact that, by far the largest
part of its Generals and field officers are
from the old Democratic party, and the
cause of very extensive anti-administra-
tion sentiment is equally accounted for. 1t
is not peace Democracy sentiment, but
one far more dangerous to Mr.. Lincoln and
the Republican party. If the Chicago Con-
vention nominates Gen. Mcclellan upon a
reasonable platform, the vote of the Army
of the Potomac will be largely estranged
from the present Administration. 1t is fact
which should not be overlooked, and which
time will develop with far more perspicuity
than is now SEEM"

Well, now, count up. If Miss Jones sells

Richard, you are right; begin to think the
Government can take care of itself, and us
too. For my part, ! mean to buy

terest is high enough, and in three
years they will turn into six per

right, on the money side; but, it is right on
the country's side too. Help your country,
or it can't help you. Now, | say the Ger
mans are not only right, but they would be
right if they got half that interest. They
cannot make a quarter oft at home" So
thought Poor Richard, and so think we.
When we think of the German opinion of
our situation and our financial strength,
we must remember that they are far
better judges of our condition than we are,
or our enemies are. They are lookers-on,
at great distance. They have none of our
enmities or prcjudices. They can examine
the facts disinterestedly. They do; and the
result is verdict that the American Gov
ernment is stable-itS ability and tntegrtty in
meeting its financial engagements a~questt0na-
bic. This verdict, too, is founded on series
of facts which are unimpeachable, and well
known to every intelligent American.
Take two or three of the most important:
l. The United States doubles its population
each twenty-five years. The popula-
tion OF the country, which in 1850 was
t,centy-.fue millions, will in 1875 be
torty-Sir millions. But the rebcllion says
some one. How much has the rebellion di-
minished the strength of the United States?
Take this astonishing fact, that if all the
Rebel States had been sunk in the Pacific
Ocean, the United States would in 1875 have
a population equdlto hdt Of the Whole in 1860.
In other words, fifteen gears will supply the
total loss of the eleven original Rebel States!
What can impede the progress of such a
country? 2. The wealth of the country in
creased 127 per cent. in ten years! Now let
it increase but so from 1860 to 1870, and it
will amount to ten times all the loans OF the
government. The German knows what he
is about He will get the largest income from
loans in the world, on the safest security. No
such opportunity has occurred before for
the investment Of money, and in all proba-
Dlllty VIII never occur again. If the Amer
lean does not know and take advantage of
this, the German and Frenchman will.-Ec.

as a brevet Second Lieutenant of infantry,
on July !, 1887, and was attached to the
Sixth regiment. At the end of the month
he received his full rank of Second Lieuten-
ant. He then went to Florida, and in the
battle of Okeechobee, on December 25, 1887,
was wounded severely in three places. For
his gallantry and good conduct in that bat
tie he was brevetted First Lieutenant from
that date, receiving his full rank on Febru-
ary !, 1888. He resigned the service on
October 81, 1898; but after an absence OF
two years was induced to re-enter the SER
vice. He was therefore reappointed First
Lieutenant of the Sixth infantry on No
vember Is, lS40 his rank to date from Feb
ruary /, 1888. By this plan he was ena-
bled to gain the promotion to a Captain on
Nov. 7, 1S45, instead of at a later PERIOD
He served in Mexico, and was brevetted
Major on August 20, 1847, for gallant and
meritorious conduct at Contreras and Cheru-
busco. He was severely wounded in the
battle of Molino del Rey, during the storm
ing of the works ON SeptemberS, 1847, and
was brevetted Lieutenant Colonel from that
date. During July, 1854 he was appointed
commandant of cadets at West Point, and
on the Sd of March, 1855, was promoted to
the rank of Major of the Tenth infantry.
On the Goth of December, 1860, he resigned
the United States service and returned to
Georgia, where, although the first to leave
the United States service for the cause of
the rebels, he was allowed to remain. After
being neglected for some time he was ap-
pointed a Brigadier General of the rebel
provisional army and during June, 1868,
was promoted to Major General. He COM
manded division of Hardee's corps, and
was shot through the foot in the engage
ment near Dallas, Georgia, June, 1864. Ac-
cording to the above report it appears that
he fell before Atlanta on Friday, July %,
1864.
PROCLAMATION BY GOVERNOR BROWNE.
The Richmond papers of late date pub
lish the proclamation of Governor Browne,
of Georgia, calling out the reserve militia
and ordering all persons without distinction
to taxi up arms. The particulars of the
proclamation have already appeared in The
Herald. 1t concludes by saying
lfGeneral JOhnston's army is destroyed,
my, and we are ruined. If General Sher-
mans army is cut off, the West is thrown
open to us to the Ohio river, and all raids
into Mississippi, Georgia and Alabama will
at once cease. If every citizen of Georgia
will do his duty, and the President will per-
nit Kentucky to remain free from raids for
time. land will send Morgan and Fo rest 10
operate upon the railroad line OF cOmmuni-
cation nearly three hundred miles in Sher-
mans rear, which passes over many bridges
and through country destitute ofsupplies,
the grand army of invasion can be destroy
ed and not only our own State, but the
confederacy, delivered from disaster, by the
triumphant success ofOur arms.
