We commend the Resolutioris adopted
by the State Convention to a careful peru-

Mr. Carter, on taking the chair, said
"that the business which calls the Conven-
tion together was of great importance.——
The Democratic party show signs of dis-
solution. It is beginning to stagger.-
It has never recovered from the blows it,
received in the Fremont campaign, and
the late elections have continued to deal
it effective blows.’ Its best men are full-
ing off from that party everywliere. We
must strike another blow in this state and
put tl1a.t party o11t of existence. He ho-
ped that liarmoney. would prevail and that
the nominations would be acceptable to
all. s
A long debate ensued on the motion on
resolutions, whether the committee should
consist of one from a county, or one from
each senatorial District. The latter pre-
vailed, the coi11. to be chosen co11nty-wise.
Mr. White from the committee on ere.
dentinls, then reported the roll of dele-
gates. A discussion here arose as to the
right of Bridgeport to send four members
——-a right she claimed from her popula-
ition. The convention ordered two to be
strickciiofi", Vernon and several other
towns coming under the same rule.
The delegates as then reported, stood,

WILLIAM A. BUCKINGHAM,

of Norwich was tlien u11a.11imously dc-‘

clared the candidate for Governor by the
Convention. The remainder of the ticket
as above, was then chosen in order.

M 1'. 1-Iawlcy of Hartford, from the
Com. on Resolutions, road the resolut.io11s
prepared by the coiiimittec, as follows:

1. _R‘.‘.\‘()]?'€(f, That the Ame-ricnii peo-
ple have now before them questions of
great and immediate i111poi't.a11ce, involv-
ing the peace of the count.i‘y, the stabili-
ty of the Union, the independence of the
several States, the preservation of Re-
publican institntioiis, and the rights of
man ; that upon all these questions a ma-
jority of the frecuien of Connecticut ( in-
cluding citizens who in former times and
upon other questions were re_spectively in-
dentified with the W'hig, American, Free
Soil and Democratic parties,) are in sen-
timent, heartily united and in harmony,
with that _o._;1‘eat and patriotic party which
in New Englaiid and in other parts of
the country has assumed the. significant
name of REPUBLICAN ; that amongst
those citizens represented in this Conve11-
tion there is no diversity of opinion which
ought in the emergencies of the present day
to prevent them from acting together as
one undivided, and indivisible political or-
gni1ization,—-and that they therefore
unite cordially and thoroughly for the
purpose of niaintaiiing with iuflcxbie
strength their unanimous opinions on all
the political questions which now so earn-
estly demand their attention.

2. Result-m’, Tliat.-the inainteuance of
the principles promiilgated in the Declar-
t.io11 of Iiidependeuce and embodied in the
Federal Constitntioii, is essential to the
preservation of Republican institutions ;
that the Federal Coustitiition, the rights
of the States and the union of the States
must andsliall be preserved.

3. Resoh-ed, That we regard the pre-
servation of the Union as an object of
immeasurable importance, and that we
therefore oppose, as dangerous to the
Rupublic, that party which not only cui-
braces within its ranks, with hardly an
exception, all men who hate the Union
and threaten to destroy it, but confers
upon the cl1iefdisn11io11ist.s of the Nation
its confidence and its honors, and allows
them to dictate its foreign and domestic
policy.

4. Resolved, That the investment of
two thousand millions of dollars in slave
labor, and its coiicencration in the hands
of less than three hundred thousand per-
sons, with the political advantage given
it by the Constitution, made the Slave
Power infinitely the most dangerous mo11-
oply which has ever threatened their lib-
erties ; that Slavery and Freedom——slave
labor and free lnbor_.——nr_e irreconcilable
antagonisms ; and that wliile the Slave
Power, tlirough its f'aitl1ful:1lly,tl1e Dem-
ocratic party, falsely so called, control
the coimtry, the rights of’ freemen are
nowhere secure, either in the torritorics
or the States, no just and aquednte pro-
tection cau be given to American free lu-
labor, and the action of the Federal Gov-
ernment will steadily favor the great sec-

-tional, nristoci'a.tic inonoply, to the con-

stant injury of all free laboring 1ne11.

5. .Rcsol1-ed, That the so-called Demo-
cratic party of the North, which defended
the Wilmot Proviso in 1847, rcpudiatedit
in behalf of squatter sovereignty in 1848,
sanctioned the compromise measures of
1850 as a final settlement, repiidiafed
them and repealed an ancient comproiuise
in 1854, at the moment when Freedom
was to receive its first. benefit therefroni,
postponed the time when the people of
the territory might prohibit slavery to
the period when they should adopt a state
constitution, and then endeavored to de-
fraiid them even of that last privilege,
and which now avows through the Presi-
dent that szlnvcry is universal in the terri-
tories and cannot. be proliibitcd tlicrciu
while they remain such, has, by these
clianges, conclusively dcmo.st1‘ntcd that it.
acts upon no fixed dcinocratic principle
but scrvcstlie temporary piirposes of the
great American Ai'ist.oc-racy and Monop-
y.
6. RM‘!/Ive.‘/, That. no political crime
can be imagined more enormous than that
of forcing upon a free people a. constitiitioii
which they repiidiafe ; that. the co11s.um-
nation of's11cl1 :1 crime in Kansas ought
to be resisted at. all l1n7.ards and to the
lust cxtreiiiity, and that, for nicclitatiiig
such 11 crime, the President ofthe United
States and all who siistniii him in the same,
deserve and will receive the coiidenination
‘of the civilized world.

7. Iicsoh-ed, That we will sustain our
government in all honest aiul proper ef-
forts to defeat and punish those lawless
men who, in violation of our neutrality
laws, engage in fillibiister expeditions
from our ports, and that we are oppo-
sed to all sclicmes, wlietlier pirafical
or peaceful, for the entension of the area
of slavery and the increase of the slave

‘ power by the ftlllltlf-IEl.i.l0l] of foreign terri-
tories iiihabited by men alien to nsin race,

in education, in liabits, in lniiguagc, and
in everything which distingulslics one peo-
ple froni auotl1o1'.

8. ]f1:.‘:(/f?.'I.’.(l, That. ivclic-nrtily app1'ovc
of the recent aiiieudiiient in our State
Co_nsl:it1ition, withholding from persons
iinnble to read the privilege of an elector
and that we are in fu'7or of carrying the
provisions of that ninendniciit, tl'1orougl1-
ly and faithfully into execution in all
cases.

9. Ra'.vnh‘r(f, that the frauds and cor-
rupqions practised at the ballot box by
the adniiiiistmtion party 011 iiiiininerable
oc.cz1sio11s demand grenil y increased watch-
fnlness over our rights, and additional
lflgifilflli-On to sconte their safety.

10. ]?t‘S0l'1'€d. Tliat we earnestly e11-
deavor t.0 secure a just and strictly cco-'
nomical nd111iuist.i'at.io11 of our State G ov-
e1'i1111e11t., and that, iiinsniucli as the basis
of free institutions is the intelligence of
the people, we urge the. duty of iiicrcnsed
attention to through and universal cd11c-n-
tion.

I]. .I?c.ml'rc(l, That there should be no
furtlier present increase of banking cnpi.
tal in this State, and the calamities of the
late fiiiaiicinl revulsion make clear the

A iuotion for :uljo11i'11111ci1t was debuted
at some lcngtli, and lost.

The resolutions were then discu;<sed.——
Mr Perkins of Norwich o_li'crcd an addi-
tional resolutiou in lieu of the 9:11. It
was as follows—-

Ifc.s'olrcd, Tliat llic frauds and corrup-
tion prepctrnted at the ballot box in our
elections through the agency of a class
of voters of our foreign popiilatiou W110
blindly obey the len.dei'sof'tl1c Den1ocrut-
party, admonish us of the necessity of
resisting the undue influences of unintelli-
gent forcigiicrs in o11r political a.fl'airs; and
we tliereforo favor the adoption of such
legislation as niay be iiccessnry to pro-
tecr. the right of si1tl’i'n.gc and the purity
of the b:1llotbo):.‘

Mr. Perkins spoke in favor of his reso-
lution. Mr. J. R. Hawley advocated the
original rosolutioii as reported. The only
difl'ere11cc,l1e said between the ressolu-
t.ions is tlint. one lays the blame of elec-
tion frniirls on the Democratic pnrt.y ;the
other on the l'i)1'e’g11 population. Mr. H.
thought the Deiuocmtic. leaders deserved
the blame. They perpetrated the frauds
in Kansas, and Minnesota, and Wiscon-
sin, and not the foreigners. He opposed
the resolution because it was :1. distinctive.
tenet only of the American party.

Mr. Peihius replied. Without the.
contr--l of .tlie foreign vote the dema-
gogues of the Democratic party could
never have obtained the power they now
have. But for this foreign vote, John
C. Fremont would be this day President
of this iintion. By acknowledging this
truth, you conciliate a large mass of vo-
ters and take the means of doing wrong
from the Democratic deniagogiics. Un-
ion i11 the convention and in the State
would be produced by it.

Mr. Bushnell of New Haven moved to
lay both the resolutions on the table.-
Mr. White of Danbury opposed the mo-
tion. Hc perferred the question to be
settled now. The Republican party can-
not agree to such a resolution. “hey pre-
fer to vote it down. They had no quarrel
with the American party, but do not wish
them to bring into such a Convention their
distinctive principles. This resolution is a
dead issue. We want none but living
ones. Mr. Busl1nell’s resolution lost.

Mr. Comings of New Britain thought
that the resolution of Mr. Perkins’s would
at once drive all the foreigners to the
Deniocr-.1c_v. Not a Gcrniuii would vote
011 the side of liberty, if such a. resolution
passes. G .

Mr. Blake of Bridgeport thought the.
discussion an unnecessary one, and there-
fore moved» that both the resolutions be
indefinitely postponed.

Mr. Hammond tliouglit the American
party as earnest in the, opposition to
slavery as the other. They find shown
it for years past, and this Convention
ought not to speak of crusliing it o11t.—
The 1'esol11t.ion was true,and ought t.o be
past. It is time that the influence of ig-
norant. foreigners should be checked.

‘Mr. Blake again deprecated the dis-
cussion as doing more hurt than good and
advocated laying both the. resolutions 011
the table. '

Mr Perkins spoke in favor of his reso-
lution and against postponement. The
original resolution was too indefinite.

Mr. Hoyt was called to the chair. and
Mr. Carter addressed the Convention -
Thc same subject, he said, had come
before the Coiiventiou of last year, and
had been rejected and no dissatisfaction
had ever been niauifested among the
people. No such dissatis.fact.ion would be
felt if tliat. resolution were 1'cjccted. But
if the resolution passes, the party is bro-
ken 11p to a ce1'tu.int.y. There will be at
once a divission. As an old Whig he.
had never given up his distinctive views,
but there was no need of forcing them on
a convention. Our platform should be
opposition to slavery. If not, let us
break 11p at once. There should be no
distinctive An1e1'ica11ism in our platform.
If the resolu1'.io11 is passed, the Co11ouve11-
tio11 will_bc broken into fragments.

Mr. White of Daubury said that. the
question which must be sometime or other
met might as well be met now, and either
coiisoiidnte the party, or divide it. It
has been franied by the union of all par
ties, and we cannot all agree upon the
resolution of Mr. Perkins. The Amer-
ican pnrty did its part well ‘as far as it
went, and rose rapidly, owing to a. gc11c-
ral disgust among the people with the old
parties. The questions which c1'catedtlie
party have passed away. He comiuei1d-
ed the act of the,American party, the
-ameiidnieut to the Constitution requiriiig
that none should be made voters who
could not read or write. He dcnoiiuced
briiigiiig into this Union movement, old
prejudices and questions. We do not
want them here. If we go bouie after
a f11ll discussion, we may haie no more
of it in future conventions. He believed
that with the present. living issues the
Union pn.1'ty1nigl1t be far the strongest
party in the country because its ])l'lll(‘.lplL‘S
would be strongest. There are many in-
telligent foreigners uho would vote with
11s if this resolution was 11ot i11co1'poi'ated
into our platform. Fairfield countyhas
no ofiiccr upon the ticket elected today.
'We intend" to go into the fight ez1.r11estly,
for the success of that ticket ; but if the
resolution here presented prevails, our
hands are tied. ‘ ‘

Mr. Brandagec replied to Mr. Carter's
staleincut that a rejection of a similar res-
olutiou last year created no dissntisfnct.io11
and said licundcrstood 011 this account,
Mr. Ferry was defeated.

1Vlr. larter said he never heard of this
before. Mr. :Wliit.e said if it was so, it
was-cloiie with a dark lantern, but he did
not believe it. If it were so, that Mr.
Ferry was stabbed in the dark, he should
forever forswear all political followship

with such traitors.
Mr. Carter wanted to k11ow what was

.meant- by these hints at bolting, if Know

Notliingism was not engrafted ' into the
platforni. He denied that Americans
came here as Americans, any more than
he came here as a Whig. He did not be-
lieve that the people wanted distinctive
Americaiiisrn. In his own town, he knew

Another Coui1te11"eiter.f

A stranger yesterday made his appear-
ance in Norwalk, and passed a. counter-
feit ten dollar bill 011 the Exchange Bank
of Geneva, N. Y. He had an accoinplice,
it is supposed, with him, and both manag-
ed to get off before the forgery was dis-
covered. It was thought. they were from
New York, and that they took a train
for the east. A tcle;.»,'i'a111 was se11t to4of-
licerBaldwi11, describing the cbap’s ap-
peu1'n11ce ; but it was too laf.e—tl1e train
had left. Mr. 13., however, concluded he
would take a. look tlirough the e.\'press
cars down, in the evening, and ‘see what he
could see.’ He accordingly did so, and
soon “ spotted” the fellow, whom be im-
mediatcly took into his kecpiiig, and de-
posited in the lock_-up, where he rcniained
till this morning, when he was delivered
into the hands of officer Bisscll, of Nor-
wnlk, for examinatioii in that place.—
The man said liisnnme was Frank Single-
ton, is a sailor by occupaton, and about
t.we11ty years of age. It is supposed his
accomplice was aboard the same train.
A fellow was arrested yesterday in New
York, for passing one of the same bills.

developed blossoms upon its terminal branch-
Its perfoliate leaves have expanded, i11

stands upon an upright post, six feet. from the
dwelling, is 20 feet high, and especially expo-
sed to every North Western blast. Our senses
unite with vegetable shoots to satisfy us that
the present Winter, thus far. has been charac-
