THE CONVENTION.

On Saturday last the Democrats of this county met in Convention. In another col--umn a full oHioial report of the proceedings will be found. Its only purpose was the appointment of delegates to the State Convention to be held at Indianapolis, May 24th. Still, as the times seemed to require, the position of the parly was defined upon the Temperance question, which certain politicians have pietended to think sufficiently comprehensive and transcendant to be made a basis for a new organization.

If there is any one thing peculiarly admirable in Democracy, it is the candor with which it makes declaration of its principles. We speak of this, and refer to the resolutions of last Saturday, that the people may institute comparison between the course of our party and the course of its enemies as regards the Temperance issue. The Democrats say they are opposed to a law which tends, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the people in their right to use, consistently with good morals, spirituous liquors. The "prohibitionists," for so ,we can only describe them, say they are •in favor some of the Maine law, some of a prohibitory law, some of striking at the manufacture, while the great majority cannot, or will not, honestly declare what they want. The onlj unity of opinion they possess is, that be the step what it may, it must be taken by the law-making power, and enforced by the plcuipotence of government.

It has often been charged that the secret of the success of our party is the magic of its name—Democracy. Whether the charge be true or not, we have no hesitancy

in saying, that if it were not for the title falsely used by the prohibitionists as the cog

nomen of their faction, they would not stand a day—public opinion would sweep them from the community. And to prove it, who will array himself against—Temper-x uncf? Who will acknowledge himself— Ati'i-Tonpcrunce:

And who is Ahti-l'emperancc? ot De

mocracy—not "the Alamo platforniers," as they arc derisively called. It is charged so of us and of theiu but the charge is false. Honesty, sobriety, industry, and intelligence, are the elements of temperance. AVho but a fool, or a mouth-piece, or a scribbler for a pack of fools, dares stand up in our communities, and say of himself and his party—"(Jet behind us, all who arc opposed to us and think differently from us—get ve behind us! Ye are not as hon-

est, as sober, industrious, and intelligent as we are. We are Christ you are Satan •vour place is behind us!" Who will dare do this in Montgomery county? It has been done—will it be again? Patience!

Well, the Democracy are. not opposed to Temperance: It any honest man thinks so, we point him to our resolutions, and tell 'him—read for yourself! See if anywhere in them you Cnd an anti-tempcrar.ce feature, or the assertion of a principle which a christian of any faith or a patriot of any ipolitics cannot consistently affirm. Read them, we say. Aud yet those rcsolu ions do put us ii fair antagonism to Prohibition, to the Maine law, to any act which would Twrest from the humblest among us his 'humblest privilege as a citizen. They are •••vba-cd upon the theory of our republic— seli" government, upon human nature, which avoids evil and embraces good instinctivelv.

TIIE WARD TRIAL.

Below we give a brief sketch of the trial of of the Ward's, who, it will be recollected, shamefully outraged humanity, by brutally murdering Mr. Butler of Louisville, Ky., for

discharging his duly as school teacher. From appearances, we have

110

idea

they will suffer the just penally of the law they violated, as the aristocracy of Iventuckcy is as incxhaustable in its management to protect its members from the hand of jus tice, as it is wicked in its influence on good

society. •The appearance of Matt Ward during the speeches of Saturday, was that of an intensely excited listener. lie would frequently rise from his seat, and, with an eager look, gaze upon the speaker, often moving his lips and twitching his features from great and overpowering nervousness. The jury is closely conliined at night and during the recess of Court, under the watch of one of the Sheriffs! It is a matter of common talk here, that the neighbors of one of the jurors say. that he had frequently expressed an opinion that if the jury hangs, he will be drummed out of the county.'—Lou. Cow.

TIIE MILLENNIAL SABBATII.

The Rev. Dr. Cumming. the learned theologian and brilliant writer, delineates most beautifully the glories of the Millennial Sabbath. It will be found below. It is worthy to be written in letters of gold, and set in diamonds. Here it is

"It will be a day of lasting rest. When the night that is far spent is completely exhausted, and the day that shall be is fully come, then there shall be perfect rest.— The earth shall have its Sabbath, which is lost by our sin. Man shall have his, in its integrity, and purity, and beauty. God rested "on the seventh day from all his work, and Hallowed the Sabbath, and blessed it. I believe there is not a beast in the field, nor a fish in the sea, nor a fowl in the air, that has not a right to the Sabbath, and that shall not yet have a Sabbath of rest. There is not a laborer in the workshop, nor a toiling man in the post office, nor a clerk in the counting-house, that may not claim the Sabbath. Next to God's word, God's Sabbath is the right and privilege of man. Infidelity impugns, and denounces both: by God's grace we will part with neither. And when that last Sabbath comes—the Sabbath of all creation—the heart, wearied with its tumultous beating, shall have rest the soul, fevered with its anxieties, shall enjoy peace. *The sun of that Sabbath will never set or veil his splendors in a cloud. The flowers that grow in his light will never fade. Our earthly Sabbaths are but faint rellections^of the heavenly Sabbath, cast down upon the earth, dimmed by the transit of their rays from so great a height and so distant a world.— The fairest landscapes, or combinations of scenery upon earth, are but the outskirts of the paradise of God, fore-earnests and intimations of that which lies beyond them and the happiest Sabbath heart, whose every pulse is a Sabbath bell, hears but a very inadequate echo of the chimes and harmonies of that Sabbath, that rest, where we "rest not day and night," in which the song is ever new, and yet ever sung."

Herman Bicnnerhasset, son of the

unfortunate Bicnnerhasset who was concerned in the Aaron Burr expedition, is said to be living on the "Five Points," in New York, great penury. Mr. SafTord, uf Cincinnati, author of the life of the father, has sent 500 copies of the work to the missioii-u-y ladies of the "Old Brewery," to be sold for the benefit of the son.

sume to gestate to the honest and steady farmers of the county. Let me ask your close and serious attention, as I shall attempt to explain my respectable position on the subject of gestation to the farmers.— When in years past, I plead with our farming community to lend their aid to the construction of a fence-rail, you charged me not with gestation when I was p-"urgen" them to the deformation of a cultivated socie

the charge of gestation but when I urge them to cease the use of sour-l rout as a die-it, to discountenance and discourage its consumption, to teach and inculcate the principles of "Bologna," to exert their influenza in choking the iide of moral death, rcfcA-edness, saffron-toa, and "gee-woe," which has ever raged, and is still racked

O DO

through our country, then it is you appeal to prejudice and syringe the charge of gestation. Now, sir, you are conscious that no fact ever escaped my lips or issued from my pen too high is my regard for their cents to be guilty of such an attempt.

Another fact, sir, you are also conscious, that the use of sour krout is a prolific source of disease this fact'cannot be denied, it is proved by all the insane reports of the world, corroborated by all the wisest and best physicians (of whom I am c-jyleu-risy-duodenum) of this and every other krout country. On the contrary absence from krout and regular habits of "Bologna" all tend to the promotion and preservation of health. You will readily perceive that my advocacy of this sausage-nous principle will not promote my pecuniary interest by the increase of my medical practice. And what would be your opinion and the opinion of every honest man of me as a physician, if I deliberately encouraged the "use of any vegetable, that I might reap a pecuniary reward in the increase of my professional business? Would I not be shunned, despised, condemned as an evil without genius? Would I not be regarded as a living pest, to say nothing- of pestilence, aye, a very sky-lark? And how, let me ask, stands this matter of gestation with yourself? You have tended and dressed as many, if not more, meetings than myself (although, not being as classical a writer, you may not have written as much trash) in all of which you have urged the

farmers, one and all, to sustain you and others in the manufacture of krout. In this you are directly, personally, pecuniarily interested—your language to them is virtuously, "come eat krout with me, not without money and without price, but with cabbages, money and price eat and drink krout, although it may create an appetite, a thirst for strong vegetables, whose omnipotence of power is as resistless and awfully uncontrollable as the suckling waters of the oceanic Norwegian maul-era-some.

Are you not then equally, if not more vulnerable to the charge of gestation than I am? As before said you arc directly, personally, pecuniarily interested in making, selling, and of course in the use of

O' O' krout. I am interested in the cause of Bologna, or, more professionally, the sau-sage-enous cause only as far as it promotes the general farewell of community, checks the commission business of crime, dries up the widow, smoothes down the orphan, elevates, improves, dignifies the slippery-elm of human nature, and tends to lift the stomach of man to a yearning for the pure and sweet Bologna, that concentration of good and very perfect meat.

Now, sir, I seek not to gestate in our county, nor do I seek to force the farmers into any such habit whatever, but so long as I live beneath the blighting leaves of vour cabbages, so long as you will wave your biggest cabbage heads above my head, so long shall I speak and write my opinions fully, freely, candidly on all subjects pertaining to our weal or woe. And on the subject of "Bologna" I would say to you, to the honest farmers of the land and to all

After a hard light half of the Russians were cut to pieces and the rest crossed the Danube. Gen. Cariobert with 20,000 French troops arrived at Constantinople April 5th. The declaration of war by England and France, was known in Turkey, and caused much excitement.

Hanover sides with the Western Powers all the minor German states, except Bavaria, do likewise, and will support Austria in forcing Prussia to declare herself, should the subject before the Federal Diet be independent.

Belgium announces that a treaty of permanent alliance offensive and defensive had just been signed by France and England, independent of the present war.

Merseilles, April 13th.—Admiral Bruat had replaced admiral Hemlin in the Black Sea for the purpose of giving admiral Dundas the chief command of both fleets, while Gen. St. Arnaud is to have command of the combined land forces.

London, Saturday.-The dailey Xews under date of the l'lth, says the British frigate Amazon of 24 guns, is ashore near Dragoe and all attempts to get her off have proved unavailing.

TREATIES WITH INDIAN TRIBES. The Senate has ratified without amendment the treaties recently negociated by Commissioner Manypenny with the Omahas and the tribes of Ottoe and Missouri Indians, who inhabit the Nothern portion of Nebraska Territory,

By these treaties those tribes cede to the United States all their lands, reserving only a place for their future home, to be selected by the President, and to which they agree to remove as soon as they arrange their affairs.

The United States agree to pay: "To the Ottoes and Missouries—820,000 annually, for three years from the 1st of January, 1055 81*3,000 per annum for the next ten years v9,000 per annum for the next fifteen

The Government distributes to the three tribes the further sum of 861,000, to enable them to settle their affairs and move.

The L:nited States are to erect for each of the tribes a grist and saw-mill, and provide a miller also, to erect a blacksmith shop, aud furnish tools and an experienced Smith likewise a farmer for ten years to instruct the Indians in Agriculture.

The Indians also agree, not to commit depredations upon the property of citizens of the United States, or to make war on other tribes except in self defence, but to submit their grievances and differences to the Government of the United States.

NAPIER'S ADDKESS.—The following address to the fleet has been issued by Sir Charles Napier:

On motion, every democrat in the county was appointed a delegate to the State Convention.

The following resolutions were read seperately and unanimously adopted. Resolved. That abiding trust in "the intelligence, the patriotism, and the discriminating justice" of the people is now, as it has ever been, "the distinctive feature" in our political creed that therefore, the Democratic party is, and of right ought to be, the party of the people of Indiana and that, therefore, we still declare our firm adherence to all the great principles of public policy, both state and national, heretofore on all proper occasions so repeatedly asserted and re-asserted.

Resolved, That in the organization of Territorial governments (including Nebraska and Kansas,) Congress ought, not to interfere with or control the domestic institu tions of the people of said Territories but the people thereof ought to be left perfectly free to regulate their domestic institutions in their own way, subject only to the constitution of the United States.

Resolved, That temperance is' a purely moral question, in which the people are deeply interested in the same manner as they are interested in the promotion of industry, education and religion and sincerely desirous, as we are, that it should become a cardinal virtue, loved and practiced by our countrymen and by our children, we regret that blind fanaticism and perfidious politicians have endeavored to make it a political question, thereby robbing it of its holiest character and best promise of success.

Resolved, That while we do not deny to our Legislature the power to regulate and restrict the traffic in spiritous liquors, in the mode that to them may seem most conducive of public good, on principles of common privilege, we are opposed to any measure which would have a tendency, directly or indirectly, to interfere with, or wrest from the citizen the right to use it in such mode and for such purposes as to him may seem proper and just, consistent with good morals.

Resolved, That it is a constitutional right of the people to be secure in their persons houses and effects, against unreasonable search or seizure and that, therefore, we 1

are utterly opposed to any law which would put it in the power of fanaticism, or malice, by any process or tinder any color whatever, to subject any citizen's house to un- !so11

reasonable search, or his effects to unreasonable seizure, confiscation or destruction. Resolved, That as obedience to the expressed, will of the majority is now, and has always been, a principle of action recognized by the Democratic party, therefore, if it be the will of a majority of the people, clearly ascertained through the ballot box, that a prohibitory law should be enacted, as becomes good citizens, loving our country beyond even our principles, we will submit to the operation of the law without a murmur, and use our utmost endeavors while it is unrepealed to preserve it from violation.

Resolved, That, as a portion of our citizens have already actually organized themselves into a political party, having in view the enactment of a prohibitory law, by which houses may be unreasonably search-1
