' Resolved, That , with our Republican lath.: ers, we hold it to be a self evident truth that all men are endowed with the inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and that the primary object and ulterior lie-1 sign of our Federal Government were to se cure these rights to all-persons-within its ex clusive jurisdiction. That, as our Republican fatheks, when they had abolished slavery in all our National Ter ritory, ordained - that no person shall be de rived of life, liberty or property; without due process oflaw, it becomes ou rduty to main tain this provision of ther-s—nstitution against all attempts to, violate it for the. purpeee establishing slavery in the United Stiite, - i+y positiie legislation prohibiting its existence or extension therein." That we deny the authority of Congress, of a Territorial Legislature, of any individual, or association of individuals, to give fecal ex istence to slavery in any Territilry a Om Unit. ' e d st a t e a while the present Constitution shall he maintatned. Re-solved, That the Constitution confers up on Congress sovereign power over the Terri tories of the United States, for their govern ment, and that. in the exercise of this power it `is both t duty and the right of Congress to prohibit in e I Territories those twin relics, of barbari4en, lygamy, and Slavery' Resolved, That 'whi e the Constitution of the United States was ordained and estab liShed by the people "in order to form a 'more perfect union, establish justice, insure IdOmestic tranquillity, preside for the comm2n . aefence, promote the general welfare and se- r i se the' blessings of liberty," and contains ampte provisions for the prptection of the life, liberty, and property of every citizen, the dear eat constitutional rights of the people of Kan ens have been fraudulently and violently tak en from them.: ;Their territory has been invaded - by an armed force; Spurious and pretended legislative, judicial and executive officers have been set over them by, whose usurped authority, atistained by the military power of the government, tyrannical and unconstitutional laws have been enacted and enforced ; The right of thepeople to keep and bear arms has been infringed ; test oaths of an ex traordinary and entangling nature have been imposed as a condition of exercising the right of suffrage and holding office ; • The right of ininceused person to a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury has been denied ; The right of the people to be secure in their. peesons, houses, papers, and effects, against un reasonable searches and seizures, has been vi olated ; _ They have 'been deprived of life, liberty and property,' withotedue pros 4 of law ; • That the freedom of speech and of the press hes been. abridged ; • The right to choose their representative's ties been made of no effect ; Murders, robberies and arsons have been instigated and encouraged, and the offenders hoe been allowed to' go unpunished; - That all . these, things have been•done with the,kaowledge, sanction and procurement of the present administration, and that for this high crime against the Constitution, the Un ion and humanity, we arraign that administra tion, the. President, his advisers, agents, sup porters' apolpgists and accessories, _either be fore or after the fact,. before the country and before the world; and thet ids our fixed pur pose to bring the actual perpetrators of thee° atrocious outrages,and their accomplices, to *sure and condign , punishment hereafter. Resolved, flat Kansas should be immedi ately admitted as a State of the Union, with her present free Constitution, as at once the moat effectual way of securing to her citizens the enjoyment of the rights and privileges to *hich they are entitled. and of ending the civil strife now raging in her territory. Repo, ved,That thehighway man's plea, that inight makes right, embodied in the c 9stend circular, was in every-respect unworthy of, American diplomacy, and would bring shame and.dishonor upon any, government or. pea pre that gave it their sanction. I Resolved, That. a 'railroad to the Pacific ocean,' by the most central practicable route, irimperatively demanded by the interests of the whole country, and that the federal goy , eminent ought to render immediate and effi- f derit aid in its construition„ l lataa anal . , boy thereto, to, theimmedi to construction of an emigrant road on the , ine of the rail road. , I. • Reselved, that appropriations by Congress for the improvement of river' at harbors of national character, required fur the imam= dation and sceurity of an existing commerce, are authorizeirby . the Constitutiiand jinni fted by the obligation of govertuM; to pro- I tect the lives and property of its 'citizens.

DARWIN PHELPS, of Armstrong, candidate for Auditor Genera l, is an American, and at the same time as good a Republican as can be found anywhere. He is eminently quail. fled for the office • a man . of the West , mor al character, a gilod speaker, and one whose voice has been.and will be heard often and effectively in the cause of Freedom. His report in The House of Representatives at the last session, on the subject of the right to transport Slaves through Pennsylvania, won for him a high reputation as a logician, and jurist, and as & champion for the right. BARTHOLOMRW LAPORTE, of Bradford, can. didate for Surityor.

The Convention which trained. the State Constitution for Californieresolved atits close into\ something like! - caucus and nontipatin,,,,r , contention for the...elections which were; to. follow. The enactment ofthe, Slave ry prohibitiOn clause in that instrument, it was understood, had 'been done- with the 24 - vice. of ,Col.

'There was, ,of course, no sectional Msue avowed by the South, an.' more than there is at this time in this country, but it was implied and understood ; and the succes sive elections then and since of Southern Rep- , resentatives to Congress - from eurState,show something more than mere' aceidentof birth' and casual coincidence of iwinciple. ~ What .
