The Springfield (111.) State Journal says: In 183C-7Mr. Lincoln was one of the Representatives iu the Legislature from Sangamon county, and during the session, as usual, resolutions taking an extreme Southern view on the subject of Slavery were brought forward, discussed, and finalIt" adopted. Mr. Lincoln refused to vote for them, but took advantage of the constitutional privilege allowing any two members to enter their protest upon the journals of the House, to give his views on the subject in the form of a protest. The paper is worthy of being pioduced at the present time, and we give it a3 follows: March 3, 1337. The following protest was presented to the House, which was read and ordered to be 3pread on the journals, to wit : Resolutions upon the subject of domestic Slavery having passed both branches of the General Assembly at its present session, the undersigned do hereby protest against tha passage of the same. They believe that the institution of Slavery is founded on both injustice and bad policy ; but that the promulgation of Abolition doctrines tends rather to increase than abate it3 evils. They believe that the Congress of the U. S. has no power, under the Constitution, to interefere with the institution of Slavery in the different States. They believe that the Congress of the United States has the power, under the Constitution, to abolish Slavery in the District of Columbia ; but that the power ought not to bo exercised unless at the request of the people of said District. The difference between these opinions and those contained in the said resolutions is their reason for entering this protest. Dan. Stone, . A. Lincoln, Representatives from the county of Sangamon. From the Cincinnati Price Current, Jane 7th. Business Summary of the Week. Towards the close of the past week there was an increased demand for money, and on Monday the demand was rather pressing, producing some complaint, but thi3 increased demand is regarded temporary, and is attributed to the payments usual about the 1st of the month. There has been some offerings of good paper, outside, but the regular discount houses took the acceptable paper offered by their customers, with but little exception, at their usual rates, 10(o12 per cent. The demand for exchange on the East has been fully up to the supply, and the market has been rather close during the week, and 40(5)45 per hundred was paid for sight drafts on New York by bankers. New Orleans remains dull and unchanged. Time bills on the East are taken at 69 per cent, per annum, and on New Orleans at 101'J. In this, and indeed all the Western States, the weather is favorable for vegetation, as rair. has fallen pretty generally in those States west of the Mississippi which have suffered by the drought. In our issue of the 16th of last month we stated upon the authority of our coriespondents that the wheat crop would prove a bad failure in Tennessee aud Georgia, and a partial one iu Kentucky, Missour' and as regarded the fall-sown in Illinois and Iowa, owing to the whiter killing and the spring drought. Since then the fly has proved very destructive in Kentucky, and we have rumors of serious damage being done to the crop in Indiana, by the 9me enemy. This is discouraging to all classes, and is most important to the bauker and the merchant. We also hear complaints regarding the corn crop, but nothing serious. The indications are in favor of a large crop of corn, as we have before stated, in previous issues. Flour has been excessively dull all the week, and prices quite irregular. It has been next to impossible to force sales with- j out making lare concessions, and it is tlonblful that $5 could be obtained tor j round lots superfine. Holders have not ; been offering to sell below $5 25. Good ' extra sold yesterday, we understood, at ' $5 30. Wheat, which was in good demand in j the fore part of tfc week, was dull and priires nominal at the close. Corn, Rye or Barley did not change in value or demand during the week, but Oats 1 declined largely, and closed unsettled and nominal at 37c. There has lieen a large business done in IJacon, chielly sides, at 10c, and a fair busi- j ness in balk meats. Mess Fork advanced j to $18, but at the close the market was quiet though as regards holders, very firm whose hopes with reference to the future are very bright and buoyant. There are three houses curing in ice, and doing quite i a large business, as the supply of ice is abundant, and so is that of hogs. Thk Grkat Eastku.v. The outside of the ship has been repainted, and a number of men are employed in scraping off barnacle--, her bottom having become Mjmewhat foul.

Varieties gta?" The Massachusetts cattle disease has made its appearance in New Jersey. Ten Thousand copies of Worcester's Dictionary have beeu ordered by an English publisher. Twenty-five thousand copies, we see it stated, have already been sold in this country. 83. Freeman s Journal, the leading organ of tho Catholics in the United States, has come out in a terrible nrticle against the Charleston Convention, charging upon it all manner of injustice and fraud. Refuses its Support. The Athens(Ga.) Watchman, an opposition paper, and long an organ of the American party, "declines for the present," to place the names of Bell and Everett at the head of its columns. The Hon. Silas M. Burroughs, a Republican member of Congress from the NiagaraOrleans District, New York, died on Sunday at his residence in Medina. He was about r.O years old, and has been a prominent man in Western New York many years. The plan of lighting the streets of a town with red headed girls originated very appropriately in the city of Auburn, N. Y., but failed through the propensity the watchmen are reported to have of hugging the lamp-posts. The Chicago Press says : " The probabilities are that no Bell and Everett electoral ticket will be run in this State; and that nine out of every ten of the Fillmore men of 1859 will come up heartily, earnestly, honestly and patriotically to the support of Lincoln and Hamlin." Another Lib Naileo. A reliable correspondent at Washington writes us as folio .vs : "The Chicago Times is guilty of gross falsehood in charging that Mr. Lincoln had several pairs of boots charged to his stationery account, while member of Congress. There is no such charge on the books of the House of Representatives.-' Cticaao Jour. Milledoeville, Ga., June 8th. The National Democrats met iu Convention hist night, Judge Warner presiding. Resolutions were adopted re-affirming the Cincinnati platform, declaring that property exists in the slave, and favoring the bred Scott decision. The Convention also nominated a full delegation to Baltimore. A Boston paper says : " We hear that a grand combination of the heretofore hostile and pugnacious rubber interests both Day and Goodyear is about to take place. A company, or "-.ssociation, with the commaud of a large sum of money, will buy out all the interest, and combine in themselves the manufacture of the various phases of rubber goods throughout the United States. It will probaby prove to be one of the largest operations upon this continent. A New Idea. Mr. E. E. Bailey brought us in a delicious apple the other day, a sample of a keg full which he caused to be securely headed up and sank to the bottom of his mill pond last November, where it had lain undisturbed through the winter and until about the 11th of this month. On bringing his cache of fruit to the surface and opening it, every upjile was found to be free from specks or rot, and as fair anil unwrinkled as on the day when taken from the tree. Clar'-mont (A'. .) Eagle. Beer in St. I.ul is. The St. Louis Republican contains a deluded statement showing the names of all the brewing establishments in that city, with the amount manufactured at each during the last year. The figures sum up as follows : Manufactured in 1859-60 lager beer, 122,400 barrels; common beer, 85,500 barrels ; ale, 4,400 barrels. In the year previous the manufacture of the same article was: Lager beer, 110,800 barrels; common beer, 74,400 barrels; ale, 4,200 barrels. The Republican estimates that a capital of $2,124,400 is invested in the business. Sad Accident. As the evening express train of the T. II. & R. Railroad was Hearing this place, and west of Wood's Mill Station on Tuesday night, the train ran over a man lying upon the track, killing him instantly. From a scrap of paper found near the body, and from conversations had with the deceased some hours before, it is believed that he was insane, and that his name was Alexander Ferguson. He was seen an hour or two previous to the passing of the train, and from his conversation was evidently insane. He spoke of being wealthy, and owning property south of Vincennes, and from information received since his death, it is thought he has friends and relatives in New Harmony, Indiana. Torre Haute Express. ggyThe Odd Fellows of this city are making arrangements to have a public installation of the officers of the several lodges, at Metropolitan Hall, on Monday evening, the second day of July next. The ceremonies are to be conducted by the R. W. Grand officers of the Grand Lodge of the State, and the M. V. Grand Sire of the United States, Samuel Craighead, of DaytoD, has been invited to deliver an address on the occasion. This is the first opportunity ever offered to outside barbarians to witness any of the internal work of this Order, and wc have no doubt tbd friends of the Order, as well as '.he skeptical and curious, will avail themselves of the privilege to witness the ceremonies. A good time may be anticipated. Slate Sent. gtaf Last week wc paid a flying visit to the city of Evansville. Since our last visit to that city, some three years ago, it has improved in business and appearances immensely. It has now a population of at least 15,000. We called ou the editors of the Journal and Enquire r, and found them engaged at their ceaseless labors. The editor of the Jonrnal kindly escorted us over the city, and from all we had witnessed, we predict that Evansville, ere long, must be, if it is not already, the commercial emporium of the great Slate of Indiana. We most respectfully tender our grateful acknowledgements to the officers of the Dunbar, one and all, for their eourteous and hospitable conduct towards os while we were aboard their boat. A boat officered by such gentlemen cannot be too liberally patronized. (loleunda lit raid. Steam on Canals. Mr. Scott Russel recently read a very interesting paper on the shape of vessels before the institute of Naval Architects. His experience as to tiie shape of sterns of vessels showed that they should have a cycloidal curve, in order to prevent the adverse action of the " replacing " or following waves. As to the wave at the bow, supposing the vessel to have power enough to go faster than the water could spread itself, he said that the water would rise up and stand at both sides of the boat until the load had p;issed, and then fall down into the hole kit behind it. He narrated the following .lingular and important fact: "In a shallow canal in Scotland, where the carrier ware traveled only seven miles per hour, he had compelled a boat to go ten miles, and he found that the water Dot only rose up, but lifted the boat with it, so that she drew less water than before, and actually went easier at ten miles an hour than at five. Had not railways come into fashion at the time, the country would have been covered with littl troughs, and people would have been riding on the tops of these waves in an easier aud cheaper mode than by any other means then known."

Upland Cranberries. Inan article upon the culture of cranberries upon upland, the Maine Farmer says : " There is, however, a variety of mountain berry, belonging to the cranberry genus, which we think might be cultivated more successfully than the lowland kind. We last fall received, a jar of this last kind from Rev. Mr. Pierce, of East Winthrop, who obtained them from Washington count)-, where the- grow on the waste lands and highlands in the Quoddy region. lie also sent us a specimen of the vine which produces them. It proved to be what botanists have named Vaccinium Vilis Ida-a, and commonly called "mountain cranberry,'' "rock cranberry,'" and "cowberry." We have seen it growing on the summits of the White Hills, and sides and peaks of other of our mountains. In the eastern section of Maine it seems that they are quite abundant, and are gathered in large quantities by the Quoddy Indians and others and brought into the market. They are a smaller berry than the lowland cranberry, but of a pleasant acid flavor, and by some preferred to the others. We think this variety deserving some trials of culture as well a3 the other, and wealso think success would follow the trial.'"

THE WASHOE MINES A BUBBLE.—Nearly all that has been published concerning the Washoe silver mines has been of a character to lead to the belief that the Washoe Valley was rich in mineral productions almost beyond belief. The same stories of sudden fortunes and immense "nuggets" having been found in this region are told now as they were in the Atlantic States in 1849 concerning California, and in 1857 and '58 about Fraser River. The picture, however, according to the following from the New York <Express>, has been greatly overdrawn: "We have conversed with a number of miners, who returned in the steamer Saturday night, and all concur in saying that the richness of the Washoe Valley, and other localities in Utah, has been vastly overrated. One gentleman told us that he had inspected carefully the whole locality, and that he did not believe there was a single claim that would pay for the working, with the exception of the Virginia silver mine. Many of the 'claims' in this region, which have been sold in California the last winter at such enormous prices, were, at the 20th of April, full eight feet under the snow, and not one out of twenty were 'prospective.'" ———<>——— fiSfThe Supreme Court yesterday, decided that the Common Pleas law passed far the Legislature last winter, was legally and constitutionally enacted. A thorough investigation of the legislative record satisfied the Court that the law is valid just as it stands. This decision will relieve the embarrassment which has been felt in making nominations for Judge aud Prosecuting Attorney, on account of the uncertainty as to its constitutionality. Dogs are said to u speak with their tails.7 Would it not be proper to cull a short-tailed dog a " stump orator." THE CHIC AGO J?1m ATFOK31, AK AMENDED ASD ADOPTED. limolml. That we, the delegated representatives of the Itepublican c tectum of the United aitates, in Convention asncmhlcd, in the discharge of the duty we owe to our constituent and our country, unite in the following declarations : 1st. That the history of the nation during the last four yearn, hun fully established the propriety and necessity of the organization aud perpetuation of the Republican party ; and that the causes which called it into existence are iermaueiit in their nature, and now, more than ever Ireforw, demand its peaceful ami oimututional triumph. That the maintenance of the principles promulgated in the Ierlaration of Independence anil uuilxMiied iu the Federal Constitution "That all men are created equal ; that they ar 0 endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, litu rt , and the pursuit of happiness ; that to secure these right, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed is essential to the preaorvatiou of our KcpuMicuu institutions ; and that the Federal Constitution, the Kights of the States, and the Union of the States must and shall lw) preserved. 3. That to tho Union of the States this nation owes its unprecedented increase in population, its surprising development of material resources, its rupid augmentation of wealth, its happiness at home and its honor abroad ; and we hold iu abhorrence all schemes for Disunion, come from whatever source they may : And we congratulate the country that no Republican member uf Congress has uttered or countenuueed the threats of Disunion so often made by Democratic members, without rehuke aud with applause frni their political associates; and we denounce those threats of disunion, in case of a popular overthrow of their ascendency as denying the vital principles of a free government, and as an avowal of contemplated treason, which it is the imperative duty of an iudiguaut People sternly to rebuke aud forever silence 4. That the maintenance inviolate of the Kights of tho Statts. anil especially the right of each State to order aud control its own domestic institutions according to its own judgment exclusively, is essential to that balance of powers on which the perfection and endurance of oar political fabric depends ; and we denoum the lawless invasion by armvd force of the soil of any State or Territory, no matter under what pretest, asamongthegravest of crimes. 5. That the present Democratic Administration has far exceeded our worst apprvheusions, in its measureless subserviency to the exactions of a sectional interest, us especially evinced in its desperate exertions to force the infamous Lecompton Constitution noon the protesting people of Kansas ; iu construing the personal relation bet wet u master and servant to involve an unqualified property in persons ; in its attempted enforcement, everywhere, on land and sea, through the intervention of Congress and of the Federal Courts, of the extreme pretensions of a purely local interest ; and in its general and unvarying abuse of the power iutrusted to it by a confiding people. t. That the Peopie justly view with alarm the reckless extravagance which pervades every department of the Federal Government; that a return to rigid economy aud accountability is llldispenaable to arrest the systematic plunder of the public treasury by fuored partisans ; while the recent startling developments of frauds a id corruptions at ! he Federal Metropolis, show that an entire change of administration is imperatively demanded. 7. That he new dogma that tho Constitution, of its own force, carries Slavery into any or all of the Territories of the Un:ted States, is a dangerous political heresy, at variance with tho explicit pro visions of that instrument itself, with contemporaneous exposition and with legislative and judicial precedent; is revolutionary iu its teiideney, and subversive of the peace and harmony of the country. That the normal condition of all the Territory ot the United States is that of frtedom: That a.Our K. publican fathers, when they had alolished I slavery In all our national territory, ordaiued that i no person should te deprived of life, Iiterty, or j property, without due process of law,'' it becomes j our iluty, by legislation, whenever such legislation ) is ueo-ssary, to maintain this provision of the Con- j stitutiou agaiust all attempts to violate it ; and we j deny the authority of Congress, of a territorial leg- I islature, or of any individuals, to give legal exist- j ence to Slavery in any Territory of the United- ' Stutes. 9. That we brand tlM recent re-opening of the ' African Stave-Trade, under the cover of our Na- f ttonal Flag, aided !y ierversioiis of judicial power, ; as h crime against Humanity aud a burniug shame to our Country and Ag ; and we cull upon Congress j to take prompt and efficient measures for the total and linai suppression of that execrable tratlic. 10. That in the recent vetoes, by their Federal Governors, of the acts of the Legislatures of Kansas and Nebraska, prohibiting Slavery iu thooe I Territories, we find a practical illustration of the Istasted Democratic principh of N0u Intervention end Popular Sovereignty embodied in the Kamaa- ' Nebraska bill, and a lemou&ti atiou of the deception j and fraud involved therein. 11. That Kansns should, of right, be immtdiately admitted as a State under the Constitution receutly loiined and adopted by her jHple, and accepted by i the House of Representatives. 12. That, while providing revenue for the support of the general government by duties upon iniport, Kound policy requires such an adjustment of : tJUfvai encouiage the development of ' the industrial interests of the whole country ; and we commeud that policy of national exchanges. ' which secures to the working men liberal wages, to agriculture remunerating prison, to mechanics and iiiMiiiilacturcre an adequate reward tor their ski'l, : labor, and enterprise, and to the nation commercial , prosperity ami independence. 11. That e protect ngainst any sale or alien a- ; tSan to others ot the Public Lands held by aetual settlers, and against any view of the Fiee Homestead policy which regard the settlers as paupers or snpplisntl for puHic bounty ; and we demand the pasage by Congress of th complete and satisfactory Hme Had measure whii h hasalteady pass- ; cd the House.

14. That the Republican party is opposed to any change hi our Naturalization Law-, or nnf State legislation by which the rights of citizenship hitherto accorded to immigrant from foreign lauds hall be abridged .r impaired ; and in favor of giving a full and efficient protection to tbo rights of all classes of citizen, whether native or naturalized, both at home and abroad. 15. That appropriation by Congress for River and Harbor improvement of a National character, required for the accommodation and security of an existing commerce, are authorized by the Constitution, and justified by the obligation of Government to protect tbo lives and property of its citizens. 16. That a Railroad to the Pacific Ocean is imperatively demanded by the interests of the whole country ; that the Federal Government ought to render immediate and efficient aid in its construction ; and that, as preliminary thereto, a dailyOverland Mail should be promptly established. 17. Finally, having ihus set forth our distinctive principles and views, we invite the co-operation of all citizens, however differing on other questions, who substantially agree with us in their affirmance and support.

The large silver medal was awarded to the Economist at the New York State Fair; aud the first premium at the llnited States Fair held at Cbicag. aud twelve other State and County Fairs in 185:1. In no branch of mechanical ait has there b.eu a more apparent advance than in tne manufacture ot stores. It is but a few years since the very name was a novelty, representing a huge, shapeless structure, almost M devoid of use as ornament, These have gradually given place to patterns of grace and utility ; until the varieties our markets now present have almost exhofsted the vocabulary of names : and the different phase the metal Is made to assume, would astonish old Vulcan him-e!f. In s'yie and finish, the improvement has beeu rtal, leaving nothing to be desired ou that point, but the severe competition in price, to which they have been subjected, has deprived them of niauv of the more substantial inalitie d.i.iialdr.
