THE NEW YORK DEMOCRATIC CON-
VENTION.

The resolutions passed ut Albany by the
New York Democratic Convention show that the
North is awaking to true sense OF its danger
They are protest against despotisms and, for
tuuately, a protest which can make itself heard
If the Northern people are desirous OF pre-
serving their own liberties. They also expose
the insincerity of the Radical party, which de-
sires, on the eve of an election, to dodge an
issue which it is their firm intention to force
upon the people. If the principles of that
Convention are endorsed by the people of the
North, constitutional liberty, to-day in its
death-throes, win be revived and this country
will again be free and prosperous. From the
bottom of our hearts we wish them God speed
in the holy fight which they are about to make
for the Union, the Constitution, and the laws
made in pursuance Of the powers given BY that
instrument, which is the charter Of our liber-
ties and the beacon-light which warns us TO
avoid the. shosis of despotism, on which more
than one good ship of state has wrecked.

the Italian Government will itself direct the
storm which recently ythreatousd to sweep oyer
the Roman territorywith lawless violence.
If Rome should become the capital of Italy,
the spiritual power of the Pope would in no
way be affected One hundred and fifty mil
I lions of people turn thsir eyes towards him
With flial affection, and while the Roman
question at present is beset with difficulties
there can be no doubt that its solution Will
bring neither danger to the Church nor dimin-
ish the spiritual 7authority of its distinguished
head.
As we are reading the proof of this article
/ the telegraph announces:
"Garibaldi escaped from Caprera: but was SUD
sequenty lecaptured, and is now closely guaruSui;
| ut is rumored that Victor Emanuel has appealeo
| to Great Britain to be released from the treaIl
stipulation binding him to maintain the lntesfiVs
OF the Papal dominions
''The rebels hold many posts in Viterbo, and
await an attack by the Pontifical troops.
| If these dispatches are authentic, the ltallan
Government finds itself in situation still more
critical evan than we had supposed, and Ii
awake to its own danger. There can he nt
doubt that GAnrBALp1 has the heart of large
part of the fighting element of the Italian peo
pie. His recaptare and second Imprisonment
will be resented by the heroes who gained fol
ItalySher liberty and her unity. ~ VIcroI
EMANUEL has appealed to England, whief
however, we doubt, he is about to throw him
self into the arms of the s'party of action"
he does so, the result may be- a European war
more frightful in its complications and it
magnitude than any which has occurred sine
the fall of NAPOLEON.
