marks made in the British House of Lords respect
ing Central American affairs.
Mr Butler replied to Mr. Wilson’s defence of Mr.

Wilson had misrepresented the Constitution of
that State altogether.
\lr Cass made some remarks supplementary to
those of Mr. Clayton on the subject.
Mr. Pearce sustained the American interpreta
tion of the Clarion-Bui wer treaty.
Mi Toombs wished to have it understood that
ne did not agree with the Senator from Delaware,
Mr Clayton) that the Central American ques
tion was not a proper subject for arbitration. He
• ould see no reason why it should not be left to an
| umpire.
Mr. (lever gave notice of his intention to intro
luce a bill supplementary to the act to organize
llu Territories of Nebraska and Kansas.
Mr. Douglas ottered a resolution providing for
,ti adjournment of Congress sin- lie on the lirst

The Fusion ano Confusion in the Opposition
Conventions.—-The anti-Filluiore Know Nothing
C.invention re-assembled in New York on yester
i iv, and determined to surrender to the Black
Republicans by letting Mr. Banks “slide,” and
u uninatiiig Col. Fremont for President. They ad-
I -red however, to their nominee for Vice President,
i ■ ivernor Johnston, of Pennsylvania. The anti- |
fillmore Know Nothings have thus submitted to j
the process of absorption —all exeept the tail of
heir ticket. By this fusion Col. Fremont runs
with two tails to’liis ticket. How Mr. Banks was
disposed of, or whether he disposed of himself,
we are not advised; nor have we any advices as to
the present status of the Stockton and Rayner
ticket. We suspect, however, that Commodore
Stockton will not insist on having both the Presi
dent and Vice President from New Jersey, and
that he will magnanimously surrender to Col. Fre
mont. This will be unfortunate, as it will leave
die tail of his ticket to get along without any
li.-ad. It will probably be several days before all
tins confusion is reduced to order.
Washington Union, June 21.
A Remarkable Movement in the United
Staves The New Orleans Courier has an account
i the meeting in that city last week of about
three hundred French and other citizens of for
eign birth, to take into consideration measures for
then own safety, with reference to violence which
hail been or mav be perpetrated upon them. The
Ceurier “ays
A member of the meeting then referred to the
killing of a Frenchman, named Girard, some days
since, at a coffee house, and stated that he was
killed, not in consequence of anv political ques
tion, -is it was before the election, hut because he
was a foreigner I The speaker said the police had
not arrested the murderer; that the police is either
bad or inefficient , that the lives of foreigners are
placed in peril, and that some measures are neces
sary to secure to foreigners that protection which
thev now want. The remarks of the speaker j
were received with acclamation. The meeting j
L declared its members were willing to leave to
\ Americans the mangement of their own affairs,
■ and only asked for themselves security and pro
tection. It was decided to present an address to
the government at Washington asking aid and
protection for the foreigners residents of this city
I and another to the Freuch government.
We cut from the New York limit, of 3d
uist., the following notice of the new mode of
curing Consumption by means of medicated inlia
latiiui, as practised bv Dr. Robert Hunter, of that
I citv :
“No man, we will venture to say, in the whole
annals of the profession, lias ever introduced a
I more important innovation on the old system of
practice, or gained in it short space of time more
converts to his opinions. Amongst these he lias
• i reckon some of the faculty itself, forced to con
viction by the proofs that daily fall under their
observation. But the most incontrovertible evi
dence of the benetits conferred bv Dr. Hunter’s
mode of treatment in diseases of the lungs is to
be found in the City I ns[ lector’s report. By these
documents it is shown that the diminution in tlie
mortality from consumption during the last three
months of the year of 1855, as compared with the
corresponding three months of 1853 and 1 5.54, was
nearly twenty-live per cent. Comparing the lirst
quarter of the present year with the lirst three
months of the years 18-54 and 1855, the diminu
tion is still more remarkable, amounting to more
than thirty-two per cent. Now, we know from
the vast number of cases treated and cures effect
ed bv Dr. Hunter during the periods referred to,
that his efforts contributed, if not to produce all,
at least the greater share of this improvement.
The severity of the past winter would have in
■ ' eased instead of diminished the mortality arising
from pulmonary diseases, had not there been some
new aud powerful counteracting influence at work.
" Emboldened bv these results, and having the
-t entire confluence in the inhalation system,
I* 11 unter now comes forward to challenge the
la tin to a fair and open investigation of his
thrones, lie says, and says truly, that it is not
■ ’glit to eoutine the discussion to medical journals,
"huh are the mere exponents of the’interests and
prejudices of particular individuals, societies or
schools. He claims the whole public for his au
dience, and he leaves to them the decision of the
merits of the controversy.”

nati Convention.”
, , Columbus, June 17, 185 ti.
AN e, the undersigned, members of the “Ameri
can party, ask leave to submit to the judgment :
ot our fellow-citizens, the following declaration of
political principles and indication of policy neces
sarv to be pursued in the present crisis.
M e consider the union of these State*, under
the Constitution, as understood and adopted bv
tlii'jfather.^ of the Republic, “the paramount polit
ic consider the maintenance of the Union depen
dent upon the maintenance of the egualilu of each
-state in the Union.
M'e consider the 12th resolution of the Conven
tion of the American party at Philadelphia, in
June, 1555, which is in the following words, an
essential link in the chain which bound the Amer
ican party, and an indispensable element of its nu- !
tionality:
1 lie American party having arisen upon the i
ruins and in spite of the opposition of the Whig I
and Democratic parties, cannot be held response
hie for the obnoxious acts or violated pledges of I
either. And the systematic agitation of foe sla- :
very question by these parties, having elevated i
sectional hostility into a positive element of polit- i
ical power and brought our institutions into peril, :
it has, therefore, become the imperative duty of i
the American party to interpose for the purpose of >
giving peace to the country and perpetuity to th, j
litiion. Aud as experience has shown it impossi !
hie to reconcile opinions so extreme as those which
separate the disputants, as there can he no dislion- I
or in submitting to the laws, the National Council
deem it the best guarantee of common justice and
of future peace to abide by and maintain the ex
isting laws upon the subject of slavery as a rinal
and conclusive settlement of that subject in spirit
and substance.
“And regarding it the highest duty to avow their
opinions upon a subject so important, in distinct
and unequivocal terms, it is hereby declared us
the sense of this National Council, That Congress
possesses no power under the Constitution, to
legislate upon the subject of slavery in the States,
where it does or may exist; or exclude any Stale
from admission into the Union, because its Con
stitution does, or does not recognize the institution
of slavery as a part of its social system. And ex- 1
presslv pretermitting any expression of opinion ‘
upon the power of Congress to establish or pro
hibit slavery in any Territories, it is the opinion
of the National Council that Congress ought not
to legislate upon the subject of slavery within the
Territories of the United States, and that any in
terference by Congress with slavery as it exists in
Ihe District of Columbia, would be a violation ot 1
the spirit and intention of the compact L>v which
the State of Maryland ceded the District to the
United States, and a breach of the national faith.”
M e consider the repeal of the law known as the
Missouri Compromise, as a simple affirmation of
the doctrine set forth in the said resolution, and 1
necessary to the maintenance of the Union of the
States, and as the “best guarantee of common .
justice,” and a “final and conclusive settlement of ’
the subject of slavery.”
MV consider the maintenance of the existing 1
laws upon the subject of slavery sacredlv pledged
by the American party, aud necessary to the pre
servation of the Union, and thereby “the para- i
mount question,” to which all others now before |
the country should yield, and upon which, in the
South, there should be no division of sentiment, 1
either as to the opinion or the method of its ex’ 1
pression. ;
And while we abate none of our hostility to the
prevalence of foreign influence in the administra
tion of the government of our country, and while
we as much as ever deprecate that policy which
admits those owing and acknowledging civil alle
giance to other powers to the trusts and confidence 1
of official station, yet we consider this principle, l
though of vast importance, secondary to the issue |
upon the question of slavery now presented to the j ,
American people.
'l’lie American party of the State of Georgia, on 1
the 2oth of December, 1855, re-affirmed these doc- i
trines, and insisted that they be endorsed bv the i \
National American Convention, and that the can- I
didates selected by it be pledged to their adoption, j ;
as fully appears by the following resolutions, by it
at that time published, to wit :
Resolved, The territories of the Unite'd States we | '
regard as the common property of all the States as ! i
co-equal sovereignties, and ns'snch open to settle- I
inent by the citizens of the States, with their prop- ,
ertv as matter of right, and that no power resides j
either iu Congress or the Territorial Legislature, j
or the people of the Territories, while a territory, j
to exclude from settlement in anv territory, any j I
portion of the citizens of this Republic with their t
property, legally held in the States, from which ,
they emigrate.
7. Tlie agitation of the subject of slavery should *
cease, the rights of the South are plain, palpable,
well defined, and understood, and we believe thev
should not longer be treated as open questions ; ’
we will maintain our guarantied constitutional
rights, and our right of property in slaves. Geor
gia has solemnly declared what she will regard as ‘
future grievances on this subject, and what her j
remedy will be when these grievances shall be in- I
Dieted. M'e will stand by tiie “Georgia Platform.” j ’
M'e believe the continuous agitation of this sub- j
ject is made by sectional politicians lor personal 1
and party promotion, and is hurtful to the South, !
the institution of slavery, and the permanency of
the Union. ! i
M'e instruct our delegates to the National j \
Convention to insist upon the adoption of the i (
foregoing principles, in spirit and substance, be - j
fore going into a nomination; and that the uoini- j
nees be pledged to carry out the same in good I
faith, as in the administration of the government 1
and the appointments to office. .
M'e consider the Convention of the American
party at Philadelphia, in February, 1856, has
proved itself regardless of the preservation of the
Union: 1
First, by repudiating the 12th resolution of the i
American platform of 1855.
Secondly, by condemning and denouncing the
repeal of the law known as the Missouri Uompro- s
mise, and thereby attempting to re-open the qurs- ,
tion of Congressional interference with the sub
ject of slavery in the Territories.
And thirdly, by disregarding the action of the
Convention of the American party of the Slate of
Georgia, and in contemptuously spurning from
that body any consideration of their wishes; and
bv these acts has severed the link of unily which
bound iis, and rejected the terms ot our alliance.
Although we have iitidiniiiiished confidence in
the patriotism, ability and integrity of Millard
Fillmore, we consider it unwise and impolitic for
the South to run him for tlie Presidency in the
present contest, for by giving him the electoral
vote of two or three southern States, we might
throw the election into the House of Representa
tives, where the same power which elected a
Black Republican Speaker, would insure die elec
tion of a Black Republican President, a result
alike destructive of the Union and die constitu
tional government bequeathed by our ancestors.
\Ve consider that the Democratic party recently,
at Uineinnatti, m Convention assembled, boldly,
fairly and honestly placed itself in battle array,
; and tendered this “paramount issue” to our ene-
I udes aud the world. And in view of these facts,
and because of the before mentioned considera
tions, we feel it our duty, as southern men, to
support its nominee.-;, and on this issue with it con
; qlicr or with it fall.
M e therefore recommend to our fellow-citizens
i the election of James Buchanan aud John 0.
; Breckinridge as President and Vice President of
: the United States.

ii T A telegraph despatch in the Charleston pa
! pers announce that a meeting of the Old Line
Whigs was held in Washington city on Saturday
i night last. Resolutions were adopted recommend
ing the postponement of the Convention proposed
. by the Whigs of Kentucky until the last Wednes
day in July, and that all sections should send dele
gates. The majority present were evidently mem
bers of the American party. Considerable con
fusion existed.
i-feT'The Fillmore National American Club of
New York unanimously determined on Saturday
last to co-operate with the Fremont Black Repub
lican party. “They’ve gone home.”
John It. Church, of Georgia, is one of the
recent graduates at tlie Military Academy at M ost
j Point. He is entitled to the commission of Brevet
; Lieutenant iu the army.
It was deemed advisable yesterday morning to
j hold tlie Fillmore aud Donelson ratification meet
j ing last night. We went to press before the hour
j for its assembling. Columbus Enquirer, June 21.
We believe the meeting was announced to be
held a dav later. The Know Nothings, we pre
! sume, were leaving the Fillmore platform so fast
; that “ it was deemed advisable” not to wait a day
! longer, for feat of not having a sufficient number
left to do the ratifying.
Hon Edward Everett—The heal'li ot Mr
Everett is such that lie has requested the citv gov
ernment of Roxbury, Mass., to release him from
his engagement to deliver his address on the “Life
and character of Washington,” on the 4th of July.
He is about to visit Newport to trv the effect of a
change of air.
Mr. Bi i.uanan. —The Wrightsville Star says it
is the intention of the Hon. James Buchanan to
take up his quarters and spend the summer at
Wabank, a place of some celebritv as a fashion
able resort for gentlemen of leisure on the banks
of the Conestoga river, a short distance from
Lancaster city.
Georgia Gold. Two lumps of gold, weighing
4,100 dwt., have been received by T. R. Callen
der, of Philadelphia, from the Columbia Mining
Company of Georgia. They were of tlie value of
$4,300.
Morton, the Fusion candidate for Governor of
Indiana, is, of all things, most remarkable for his
modesty. He has only been a candidate for Judge,
Attorney-General, United States Senator, Repre
sentative in Congress, and United States Senator
again, since 1552. Office has indeed been seeking
the man. He can’t he found, however.
Thaddki s Stei-hexs, the well known and saga
cious politician of Pennsylvania, pronounced the
fate of tiie Republican cause, upon the nomination
of Fremont, lie declared that it would ensure
the success of Bi cuaxan in Pennsylvania by a
majority of forty thousand.
Cuban Cotton.— M'e were handed last night
(says the New Orleans Bella of the 13th) a full
blown cotton boll, which was brought from a plan
tation near Havana, by a gentleman who arrived
recently from that city. It is very beautiful, clear,
tine textured, strong, and long stapled. The locks
hang fully six inches from the boll. As a proof of
the capability of the soil for cotton-growing it is
really a curiosity. It is possible that the acclima
tization of the seed of this cotton in the United
States would make a new and superior variety.
Going Home. —Padre Vi.hi. left Washington on
Thursday, and, it is said, wiil proceed to Nicara
gua in the Orizaba, on the g 111 1 inst. 11l health and
a desire to confer with his go\, rnnient are the rea
sons assigned for his leaving.
Churches in Sax Francisco.- There are in San
Francisco thirty churches, having an average at
tendance of nine thousand six hundred and sixty
five persons, which is estimated to be one-lifth of
the total Christian population in the city.
Gen Almonte.— There are flying rumors from
Mexico that Gen. Almonte has been put under ;
arrest upon the charge of some improper influ- ;
ence in regard to the three million affair.
Crazy all round. —Amongst the contributors to i
the Kansas fund now being raised in Worcester, i
Massachusetts, we notice says the Providence
Post) the names of fifteen persons in the Lunatic
Asylum. They give fifty-five dollars. Probably,
after taking note of the proceedings of the Aboli
tionists up in that district, they have come to the
conclusion that they are as sane as anybody.
Tut: Mormons are Coming. Geo. K. Smith,
delegate to Congress from Utah, and a cousin to
Joe, is on his wav to Washington with the State
Constitution adopted by the Territorial Govern
ment, and a memorial playing for the admission |
of the free people of Mormoiidom into the Union j
and the United States.
Politics in the Pi t.err. A clergyman at Detroit
advertised to deliver a sermon in Ins church on
Sunday last on political affairs. Unfortunately
some clergymen are as capable of rendering them
selves ridiculous as other people.
President! a i. Election.— -The day fixed tor tlie
election of Electors to select a President and Vice
President of the United States, is the first Tues
day, after the lirst Monday, in November. It will
fall this year upon the fourth day of the month.
It is said “there is nothing in a name;” but if
Andrew J ackson Donelson’s daddy had so fancied,
and called his hopeful Andrew Snooks Donei.son,
does anybody suppose that Andrew Snooks Don
blsox would to-day be the eandidateof a respecta
ble faction for the Vice Presidency of these United
States?
The ship Lancaster cleared at Philadelphia, on
the 18th inst., for Liverpool, with the following
cargo, which is believed to be the largest cargo of
breadstuff's ever cleared from Philadelphia 1,-“J9
sacks wheat, 5,170 do. corn, 11,259 bushels corn,
l-g, 17*4 do. wheat, and 7,000 bbls. flour. The
above is equal to 18,237 bbls. flour.
Earthquakes appear to be quite frequent in Cali
fornia. Every mail steamer brings ns accounts of
one or more. Southern California appears to he
particularly affected by them.
M'e notice in one of our exchanges the marriage
of J. H. Strange and Elizabeth Strange. Rather

One of the Emperors of Japan is said to have

Harris, ot the Cleveland Herald, writing from
New York, says he learns from Phillip Dorslieinier,
one of the delegates at large to the Republican
Convention from New York, that Ex-President

in the coming election. Mr. Dorsheiuter is an old

“On the Know Nothing proposition to extend
the naturalization term to twenty-one years, which
was approved by the last legislature, ihe vote now
was, yeas ninety-seven, nays one hundred and
twenty-eight I The Know Nothings have thus set
upon and broke the only egg they have ever laid,
after cackling over it for a number of years !”
The anti-Fillmore wing of the American or
Know Nothing party, which had been in session
last week, in tins city, re-assembled, pursuant to
adjournment, in the Apollo Rooms. This Con
vention, before nominating Banks and Johnston,
hud appointed a committee to confer with the Re
publican Convention in Philadelphia, in reference
to a project of co-operation. The committee had
returned, and through George Law, its chairman,
reported in substance that they had been discour
teously and shabbily treated by the party at Phil
adelphia. The report merely recounted the farts,
but did not recommend any action ; it was adopt
ed. Horatio X. Wild, of New York, made a
speech, a bolt, and a double somersault back to
the side of Fillmore; and Mr. Calkins, of Penn
sylvania, followed his bright example. Mr. Wil
liamson, of Pennsylvania, and Mr. Schuller, of
Ni w York, made speeches strongly condemnatory
of the course of the Republicans ; and then the
Convention adjourned.- X. J". limb!.
Some of the Know Nothing papers are claim
ing Texas. It was only a few days ago that the
leading Know Nothing paper in that State con
sented to hoist the names of Fiilniore and Donel
son. Texas will go Democratic by twenty thous
and majority at the least calculation. Some of our
best posted Texas exchanges don’t think Fillmore
will get more than live thousandout of sixty thous
and votes in the State.- if'< <>■ m K,tekang<.
Crocs. -One of our correspondent, front Marengo
writes: “Our cotton crops are the worst I oversaw;
almost ruined by floods of rain. I do not think
that those of us who cultivate much low land, can
possibly make over half a crop.”
Another, writing from Greene county, says:
“ Crops in ibis part of the country are very back
ward. Heavy rains lately have unproved the ap
pearance of corn very much, and enough of that
w ill be made. Cotton is drooping. Cold nights
for the past week have produced lice, which is do
ing great damage u> the cotton. It looked a great
deal belter teii days ago than it does now."
