THE LATEST 'PHASE OF TnE.SQUSD DUES QUESTION. The London Times of the 21st ult. con

tolbe controversy

^we give below: r-» 0' The discussion has proceeded so farthat,

in the document which we-publish'else-where, Mr. Marcy expressly tells his minis* ter at Copenhagen that he has no intention of arguing further on the subject enough, be thinks, has l)«*en said—America has ar' rived at its conciufion, which is, that it is Dot botltod to pay. The Secretary of State ihen proceeds to tpeak of the proposal *hich Denmark has m?ide for a solution of the difficulty and, reasoning from his position, he certainly has the best of the argument. The United Slates have totally denied the right of a power holding the shores of a strait which led to the waters of some other Power to exclude foreign merchant Vessels from a pussnge. The alternative which Denmark lays down in default of payment.is such nn exclusion.

The United States declare the Baltic to be in the same category as the Black Sea, or even the Mediterranean, and deny that the Sound should be obstructed any more than the Straits of Gibraltar or Messina, the Dftrdenelles or the Bosphorous. Denmark, in her answer, unaccountably loses sight of the real question, and makes the following proposal: The nations interested fihall send representatives to a Congress at Copenhagen, at which it shall be debated what sum shall be paid,to Denmark so as lo capitalize the Sound revenues, and induce Denmark to free the commerce of the world. Mr Marcy's answer is obvious.— To send a representative to such a congress would be to yield the whole question, which is—Whether foreign nations are bound to pay at all, and not how much is a proper tribute. It does not give a high notion of Danish diplomacy that its Ministers should have given their oppponent such an evident •idvantage. The American tears up the fallacy to his heart's content, and then opens new ground.

The Danish Government, inviting a congress had given a reason supplementary to the main one of regulating commercial rights. The Sound Dues were not to be considered as forming a question of trade only. There was a political phase of the matter. Unless the representatives of all nations were invited, though "there might be an arrangement merely commercial and fiscal, there could not be one destined to serve as a complim'ent to treaties of peace and compromises by which the syskm of ihe political balance has been adjusted." This was enough tor the Ameiican Secretary. He straightway declares that "the United States will never consent to the pretention that the iSew World is to be appropriated to adjust the political balance of the Old." "Enough," continues Mr. Marcy, "has been senof the theory of the balance of-power to impress this Government wiih a fixed determination to avoid beingbrought within its vortex." America will avoid forever such a dangerous complicity."

States-, therefore, are willing to enter into an arr-.in:.re!v.ent to pay a fair equivalent, fir any advantages their commerce may re-* eeive, but such payments must be di'ssonnected from "any pretended r:^)it to control the navigation of the Sound and Belts."

The.-following are tlie resoluiions

]in«ised at the Democratic Slate Convention, un ihe 8th ins:.:

WIIKKSCAS,

The time is near at lianl, wlien

the people of Lidian.t will be called upon to indicate by an expression :it the ballotbox, the measures and policy which thev npprovc, and wish to be executed in the administration of their government:

Re&olred, Hint the Democratic p'irty of the State, here in convention assembled, in conformity with established usage, and with & firm reliance on the virtue and-intelli-igcnce of tho people, submit the following declaration of principles:

Resolved, We approve the principle of rthc compromise measures of 18 0. and their application as embodied in the Kansas Nebraska bill, and will faithfully ciaiutain 1

Resolved, We recognize the great body of the people RS the only tribunal for the decision of questions affecting their government, both as to men and measures and open appeals to their reason and patriotism as'-the legitimate means of influencing their action and we utterly condemn all associations and combinations for political purposes formed to govern them by oaths and obligations or other compulsory means, or lo impair the cxercise of freo will and inde-

{iold

jendent judgment among them. And we in abhorrence ail secret polilical orders and organizations, deeming them dangerous to the stability of government and the rights of the people.

Resolved, We are in favor of religious toleration, as the founders of our republican "institutions achieved and understood it, Bnd secured its enjoyment by constitutional guaranties and we declare"that it ought to be'maintained free from invasion either bv jeans of legislative interference, or the equaJ^tyrannical proscription of polilical parties, founded on bigotry and ideas of intolerance. "V.

Resolved, WhileMSLe esteem it the duty of government to foster and protect religion without inviduous preferences,., leaving all free to choose among denominations according to their consciences and while wc'esteem It the part of true religion, under every form, to render aliegiancc and due sup--port (o government, recognizing the constitution as the supreme law in all temporal Jan. 6.

and political concertos we hold the separate administration of the affairs-of Church and State,-essential to prevent, that union

"article upon the, general question of the two, which experience has shQwn to it.- K^II, and the worst form

tains an amviv »j- a i, ,i Sound Dues, bu,.,hh special reference to Mb.

Resolved,

between Denmark and

our own Government, a portion x(-which

That while we arc in favor of

Sobriety and Temperance and of all proper means'for the promotion of those virtues, we are unconditionally opposed to the Prohibitory Liquor Law passed at the last session of the General Assembly of this State, and to any enactment embodying the oppressive and arbitrary provisions of that law.

Resolved. That our naturalization laws, our republican institutions, our marvelous growth in national greatness and the happiness of our people, have been and are irresistible inducements and invitations to the inhabitants of less favored lands to become citizens of ours and that past experience, justice, sound policy, and national pride, all concur to favor the continuance of our present naturalization laws that if any abuses Tinvc grown up under those laws, they have sprung from theirimperfect execution alone, and not from inherent defects in the laws themselves, and that we are in favor of that policy which will soonest assimilate naturalized citizcns with the mass of our people, and opposed to that antiAmerican and illiberal policy which proscribes the foreign born citizen jfor the accident of birth, and drives him in self defence to antagonism with our native born citizens in feeling, political opinions and conduct.
