Baltimore Democratic Nominations, KATIFIED BT THE MARION COUNTY CONVENTION. 9 - The Democratic Convention of Marion "county, which assembled in Indianapolis on Saturday last, was the largest County Convention that lias been held in this city for several years, and was composed of eeveral hundreds, mainly farmers and mechanics, from every township in the county. At the conclusion of its deliberations, and after the nomination of a ticket, the following resolutions, offered by one of the delegates, N. Bolton, Esq., ratifying the Baltimore nomi- - nations, were unanimously adopted, to-wit: ,See resolutions in another part of this paper. The Nominations. We place at the head of our columns to-day, the nominees of the Democratic National Convention, end also of our county. The crowded state of our columns forbids us saying what we intend to-ay ; but that the democracy are ready and anxious Lr the fight, we have reason to know. We intend to be fully heard from in the coming contest, mark that, boys ! "Betst' made a speech of twenty-five minutes, last Saturday, on the reception of the nominations. But as the wbig3 are confident that they are again to be defeated, they pretended not to take rauch notice of it. Indeed, they eeemed to like it ! Masonic Celebration. On Thursday last, the Masonic Fraternity had one of the largest and most imposing processions ever known in this city. It was on the occasion of the installation of the Grand Officers for the ensuing year. The ceremony took place in theM. E. Church, where an address was delivered by War. Qtjables, Esq., who, on this occasion, absolutely astonished, (if we may ue the term,) his own friends. In speaking for ourselves, we hesitate not to declare it the best effort we have ever known him to mike. It was almost impossible, at times, to avoid a breach of deco rum by rounds of applause; and indeed, in several instances, it manifested itself involuntarily there could be no resistance. We hope the address will be published, that tue world at large, as well as the fraternity, may rerul it. It may lose some of its impressivenesd on paper; but those who heard it, we are convinced, will never forget it. Joliu Quiiiey Adam. On the 21th, Ex-Governor Wallace delivered an Eulojy on the character of the distinguißhetTStatesman whose name heads this notice, to a large and respectable audience. To appreciate the address, it should Lave. been heard; as no short criticism could uv it justice. It was an effort worthy of the orator and the distinguished person who was the subject. The Governor was more than usually interested ; and the address itself showed that he had bestowed no small amount of labor in collating and preparing it. We sincerely hope that measures will be taken to have i' published, embracing, as it does, a complete lowis of lue history of the remarkable man whose decease called it forth. We have read several on the same subject, but none that we think equals this. Semi-weekly. The present number closes the third volume of the Semi-Weekly Sentinel. For the patronage besto-f.ed upon it, far exceeding our expectations, we return our sincere thanks. This liberal patronage so necesssary for tins support of such a paper, and its extended circulation, convinces us that our endeavors to make an acceptable sheet, are appreciated. We lope that its present increase, will continue; and on our part, we will use our best endeavors to make it more valuable to the' reader and the merchant. It is now an excellent time to commence new nubfcriptionB, or to renew old ones. Tue Coon Sk:neä. We shall issue the first number on Saturday, the Sd of June.

Interefctitig from Mex'co. Wc have rrceiTed the following bulk-tin by telegraph from New Orleans. We are happy to hearthat a quorum Iibs at length been formed at Queretaro. The speculations about peace aro uncertain. The subsequent accounts are contradictory and irreconcilable. That a revolution should Lave been accomplished by Almonte and Iiis two associates upon the principle of a prosecution of the war against the American, is directly at points with the idea of making Ilerrera. the friend of peace, the President of Congress. I it improbable that the u-u accounts have been confounded together, and that a revolution may have been attempted by Almonte, Bustamente, and Parades, at San Luis de Potosi, whilst the signs of pence are appearing at Qucretaro ? These accounts reached us by the lightning's wing yesterday. We understand that no official accounts have lately beeu received from our commissioners in Mexico. Of course, the following communication from Washington to the. New York Journal of Commerce is incorrect : "Another Important Rumor ! No Tkeaty ! A despatch was -received at the Slate Department on Friday last, from Mr. Sevier, in which bespeak very discouragingly as to the prospect of obtaining a ratification of the treaty. , There is no doubt at all that such a letter has been received. Of course, Mr. S. does not speak positively ; for he is instructed to leave Mexico as soon as it is ascertained that the treaty cannot be ratified." We understand that no despatch Las been received from Col. Sevier to this effect indeed, no letter from him, except the one which announces his arrival in Mexico. By Telegraph for llic Union. By arrival at New Orleans, on the 18lli inst., of the Yucatan schooner Aparccida, from Cainpeachy on the 2d, and Sisal on the 11th, we have dates from Merida to the 20; h ultimo. La Union of Merida, of 20th April, publishes the treaty of peace concluded on the 19iii April, at Seiicacal, by commissioners appointed by Senor D. Miguel Barbachano, governor of Yucatan, and D.. Jacinto Tat, cominander-in-cljcf of the revolted Indians, and ratified by both parties on the 23d April at Tecul. The schooner Mary (says the New Orleans Ficayuno of the 18th inst.,) arrived this morning from Vera Cruz, bringing advices that a quorum had assembled at Queretaro, and were awaiting the arrival of the American commissioners to commence deliberations. Opinions upon the peace question were various and conflicting. The following is from Queretaro, April 27, 11 o'clock at night : "The people have become weary with suffering the oppression and sport of petty tyranny. This is at least the case with Mexicans; and by the omnipotent exercise of its will, discarding what is called the general government of the nation established at Queretaro, it has prostrated to the earth its treacherous oppressors. At 9 o'clock on the night of this day, without any resiistanct, it proclaimed the only plan which, in the present circumstances, can save the country, viz: war, and war without truce or quarter, until an 'honorable peace is conquered. Such is the programme of this happy revolution, at the head of which are Ihe distinguished generals Almonte, Bustamente, and Parades ; to whose voice all who are Mexicans, rather than partisans, will respond. The tocs.n of liberty has sounded. At last, sons of Hidalgo and Iturbide, awake. Tiie invisible hand of Providence points out to you the road by which every nation of the globe will occupy its true place. Mexicans! fulfil your destiny." - American deserters were continually arriving at Queretaro; during the last three days, twenty presented themselves to the Mexican government and were incorporated into the Son Patricio company. The garrison at Queretaro is composed of 820 mentif all arms. A wager of $10,000 has been made for and against peace; several deputies are concerned in the bet. A correspondent says that Ilerrera has been nominated president, and a majority of deputies will vote for hin. Union, May 25. Gen. Cass on llic Dissolution of the Union. "It pains me, sir, to hear allusions to the destruction of this Government, and to the dissolution of this Confederacy. It pains me, not because they inspire me with any fear, but because we ought to have one unpronounceable word, as the Jews had of old, and that word is Dissolution. We should reject the feeling from our hearts, and its name from our tongues. This cry of "Wo, wo, to Jerusalem," gates harshly upon my ears. Our Jerusalem is neither beleaguered, nor in danger. It is yet the city upon a hill, glorious in what it is, still more glorious, by tho blessing of God, in what it is to be a landmark, inviting the nations of the world, struggling upon the stormy ocean of political oppression, to follow us to a haven of safety, and of rational liberty. No English Titus will enter our temple of freedom through a breach in the battlements, to bear thence the ark of our Constitution, and the book of our law, to take their stations in a triumphal procession in the strceis of a modern Rome, as trophies of conquest and proofs of submission. "Many a raven has croaked in my day, but the augury has Jailed, and the republic has inarched onward. Many a crisis has presented itself to the imagination of our political Cassandras,- but we have still increased in political prosperity as we have increased in years, and that, too, with an accelerated progress unknown to the history of the world. We have a class of men whose eyes are always upon the future, overlooking the blessings around us, and forever apprehensive of some great political evil, which s to arrest our course some where or other on this side of the millennium. To them we are the imaec
of gold, and silver, aud brass, and clay, contrariety in unity, which the first rude blow of misfortune is to strike from its pedestal. "For my own part, I consider this the strongest Government on the face of the earth for good, and the weakest for evil. Strong because supported by the public opinion of a people inferior to none of tho communities of the earth in all that constitutes moral worth and useful knowledge, and who have breathed into their political system the breath of life; and' who would destroy it, as they created it, if it were unworthy of them, or failed to fulfil their just expectations. And weak for evil, from this very consideration, which would make its follies ani faults the signal of its overthrow. It is the only Government in existence which no revolution can subvert. It may be changed but it provides forits own change, when the public will requires. Plots and insurrections, and the various means, by which an oppressed population manifests its sufferings, and seeks the recovery of its rights have no place here. We have nothing to fear but ourselves." Speech of Gen. Cass on the Oregon question. Presidential Candidates. The Democrats having made their nominations, the candidates now in the field may be summed up as follows: Whigs' Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, Juhn McLean, General Scott, Tom Corwin, et al.: Abolition John Y. Hale, Wdi. Lloyd Garrison, and Abby Kelly: Independent TJ'Ai Gen. Taylor, John Donkey, James Gordon. Benn,, Joseph Lawson, and a talented lawyer. "The Ingest pole knocks," &c. y We are informed that the whigs of Greencastle Lave made up a club of 125, arid of New Maysville, of aboult 100, subscriber to the Louisville Journal. This we consider not very complimentary to our neighbor, who sells his paper much cheaper than the Kentuckian. We admit that he cannot lie so futt as the latter, and perhaps those Putnam County whigs are in need of sompthing of lh kind. Dernoirals of Putnam, see that democratic papers are circulated. We acknowledge the receipt of several clubj for the Coon Skinner. A few more might be of service. The Indiana Journal has reduced its prica to one dolhr a year. Wc do not know what our country coteruporariea will think of thi move; but we think the proprietor of that sheet fully appreciates the value of his wares.

New York. May 27th, 8 P. M. The Fteamer Hibernia arrived at New York on this anernoon, having failed Iro.n Liverpool on the AUkll 4.1 J 9 141 1 I France. The French have ordered their-coast to bo placed in a state of complete defence, and several new regiments have been filted out for that purpose. The moderate party in the new government have completely triumphed over the radicals. Louis Blanc and Albert have retired. " Ledru Rollin has withdrawn from the Assembly. Further skirmishes have taken place between the Anstrians and Italians, and the Austrian army is in a critical situation. The Danes have blockaded the German ports. Spain. An insurrection of a serious nature hr.d broken out at Madrid, and though unsucccsful, had caused the death of the brother of Marvius Christina. 34 iusur: gents were taken prisoners and shot. Denmark. The Danish blockade operates disadvantageous against trades, is the manufacturing districts, as also does the Italian war; but, the intervention of England or France, it is hoped, will put a stop to hostilities. Ireland. The repeal movement is actively carried on. There has been a great addition of Protestants to its ranks. Smith O'Brien has been dismissed from the magis tracy. The Queen is to visit Ireland in the summer. IConie. The people of Rome, aware of the uncertainty of the policy of Pius Ninth in regard to the Italian question, had been stimulating him for some time pout with addiCRses to induce him to declare war against Austria. He assembled the colK ge of Cardinals in consistory, and made a speech which caused the greatest anxiety through Rome. The ministry resigned en masse, but Pius refused to accept their resignation. On the 80th ult. a full general staff beld a sitting, and the municipal authorities went in procession to the Pope to demand explanations ns to his policy, and recommended him to abdicate. The civic guards of the city had orders to let no one, whether Bishop, Priest, or even the Pope himself, leave the town. On the 24th the excitement was extreme. The Tope has been allowed time to consider to the 30th. It appears that should he refuse, a Provisional Government would be established, and the Tope imprisoned. Later Accounts state that the Pope revoked the declaration of war, and that the people had deposed hi in. Po$cn. Ploody conflicts have taken place between the Russians and Toles, on the 29th ult., and the Poles who had nearly 200 men killed and 700 made prisoners, defended themselves with deeDcrate valor, causinjr a loss of nearly one hundred killed and wounded of their assailants. A similar fight occurred at M1I03law,. where the Prussians suffered much from the hre of the Polish Sharp Shooters, who picked out the officers. Several hundred Polish soldiers of the eighteenth and nineteenth regiments deserted to the Poles. Persecution of the Jews at Presburg. The Jews had been atrociously treated, their household furniture destroyed and they were taken from their shops. The plunder lasted 24 hours, when the Jews, numbering 300 families retired from the town, at the request of the authorities, and encamped in the open air. At Sclossberg, even the Jewißh Hospital has been ransacked, aud the sick were taken from their beds and badly treated, without respect to Age or sex, while even the Jewish tombs have not been respected. Military authority could not dispose of sufficient foice to prevent their acts of vandalism. Lieut. Field Marshal, the Count cf Lamberg, was wounded by the people. State Elections.

Congress, passed since the election in 1944, the elections for presidential electors will be held in all the States on the same day the 7th of November. U. S. House of Representatives. The election of two democrats to the House from Wisconsin, makes tiie whole numbers of democrats 111, while the number of whig is 110. There are three vacancies, vix., one in South Carolina, occasioned by tho death of Mr. Black,' democrat one in Seneca and Wayne district. New York, occasioned by the death of Mr. Holley, whig the other of New York city, occasioned by the resolution of tho House declaring Mr. Jackson's (d-m.) scat vacant. The result of a new trial in thit district, and also in the Seneca district, is very uncertain. The South Carolina vacancy, will, of course, be filled with a democrat. If one of the New York vacancies should be filled with a whig and the other with a democrat, the full Honse would stand 117 whigs to 113 democrats. Total 230. Lou. Dem.

Such a decision, we are certain, will meet the wishes and expectations of all intelligent Mexicans, and of the army in occupation. Should it be found otherwise, wau is henceforth the cry, and the Americans will be fund prepared for it. But we refrain from indulging in such speculations as ihe alternative presents.

We have a copy of "La Dignidad," which contaitis a regular whir article against the ratification of the treaty on the part of the Mexicans, and which is noticed in evcral cummunications from correspondents, which" latter we are obliged to postpone. That our people may sec the cause of the continuance cf the war, and the obstacles in the way of peace; nn(j whom the Mexicans consider their friends in this country, we give the following extracts. The writer proposes to postpone action on the treaty until after the Presidential election in this country, and 6ays: "We are now eo near the presidential election, it would be better to await its result, because it is certain that, even should Mr. Pulk be re-elected, which is not probable, he, or whoever else may be elected, would be more desirous of speedily making peace, and would make a more conciliatory accommodation than that which is now demanded." And then he adds "What we shall pain is, to ascertain whether Mr. Clay will be elected President or not. In the first case, it is clear that, with his political principles, we shall be able to make a belter understanding with him than with one of the opposite party."
