At the meeting of the Montgomery County
Ohio, Democratic Convention. in Toledo, on
the 18th Of May. among the resolutions pre-
scented by Mr.. Nallandigham, and which were
adopted, were the following:
That waving all differences of opinion as
to the extraordinary means 10y which they
were brought, we accept the natural and legit-
innate results OF the war so FAR rs wuged for its
uSteuSible purpose to maintain the Union and
the constitutional rights and powers OF the Fed
Ural Government, including the three several
amendments ne fucto TO the Constitution re-
Gently declared adopted, as "A settlement in
fact Of all the issues of the war, and We ac-
quiesce IN the same as no longer issues before
the country.
That thus burying ont of sight all that is Of
the dead past, namely: the right Of secession.
slavery, inequality before the law aud political
inequality; and further, now that reconstruc-
ton is complete and representation within the
Union restored to the States waiving all
questions as to the means by which il was
accomplished we demand that the vital and
long established rule OF a strict construction Of
the Constitution proclaimed by the Demo
cratic fathers, and accepted by statesmen Of
all parties previous to the war, and embodied
IN the Tenth Amendment TO the Constitution
be vigorously applied to the Constitution rs IL
Is, including the recent amendments above re-
ferred TO, and insist that these amendments
shall not be held as having in any respect al
tered or modified the original theory and
character of the Federal Government as de-
signed and taught by its founders, and re-
peatedly III early times, in later times, and at
all times affirmed by ;he Supreme Court of the
United States, but only to have enlarged the
powers delegated to it, and TO that extent aud
no more TO have abridged the reserved rights
Of the States; and that, as thus constructed
according 10 these ancient and well established
rults, the Democratic party pledges itself TO "A
full, faithful and absolute execution and en-
forcemcnt of the Constitution rs it now is, so
ns to secure equal rights to all persons under
II, without distinction of race color OF condi-
ton"
Mr.. Valandigham made a strong appeal in
favor of the above resolutions, and a stronger
attack on the Radical party. To use his own
language, it is rapidly falling into decay" it
Is rent with ''ireconcilable dissensions upon
new issues" and as the only resource to avert
impending defeat, it has fomented n new cru
SADIE upon the South; and now, says he:
The auspicious moment, the golden oppor-
tunity, the tide in the affairs Of men to be
taken at the food, has III my deliberate judg-
ment reached u.s. when the Democratic party
Of to-day, laying aside every weight and shak-
ing oil the dead body of the past and adhering
TO its ancient principles, can and must at one
bound place itself upon the vantage ground of
the present and defy its enemies to battle upon
the issues of the hour"

the Stockton (Cal.) Republican, to note the
grimaces with which the Republican journals

American INVESTMENTS. The statement is
made by leading German merchants and
bankers in New York that the policy of En-
peror William and Bismarck does not contem-
plate any reduction of taxes in the German
Empire, but that the French indemnity of
81, 600, 100000, when paid, shall be retained
by the Government and its friends as a fund
for contingencies, and for controlling the fu-
ture. 1t is also known that Bismarck favors
the investment Of large portion Of this French
indemnity of 100000 900 in frst-class
undoubted American securities. The rate of
about double that of European and the known
wealth thrown into Germany for investments
in American securities since 1853 has attracted
the serious consideration of Bismarck. In
1863 and 1864 the Germans bought fve-twenty
bonds to the amount OF $3.50, OOO, 900. which,
being worth about forty cents in gold, cost
them 1l2,O00,0OO. In the year 1851, when
the bonds mature, the purchasers will have re-
ceived seventeen years interest. at six per
cent. per annum in gold, and this added to
the principal, will realize them the enormous
sum of S555, 500, 600, on AN original invest
pent Of SIP, OO0,0OO 1t is the success Of this
American investment that induces Bismarck
to turn his attention to the value Of American
securities. Plans are nov on foot under pow
ertul auspices, in Germany, to organize tho
systematic employment of German capital III
American securities.

LOST CUETESCY. of the first issue of 500
100000 fractional currency, made i'll 1862, and
known ut the time as postal currency"
"a, 4i5, 0GO remains unredeeIned. During the
past year, $50, 4lS of this currency were sent
to the Treasury for redemption, but the rate at
which il is nov received decreases so rapidly
that it promises to cease entirely i'll another
year. Not far from $1,000, 900 of the postal
currency, it is believed, will never be heard
from, having been lost or destroyed in crcula-
ton. OF the second issue Of about S23, 600, 900
made in 1868, there is still outstanding the
sum of 50, 24G,O 900. The redemption during
the past year amounted to Sl5l 400. The poor
paper upon which this issue is printed made il
more easily destroyed than the first issue, aud
it is believed at the Treasury that more than
$4,000, 600 will never come in for redemption
The total amount of the first two issues of frnc-
iOnal currency lost or worn out i'll circulation
will, according to these estimates, exceed So
100000 or about 10 per cent oftho whole issue.
