oi overthrowing or fntcr erliig with the rigu s erestab

And whereat, 1 Iipso resolutions, thoutrh not joint

Ami whereon, liy my proclamation of tho 13th day
Ol June last, tho insurrection in tho Stato of Tennes

rity of the Uultod Statos theroin to be undisputod,
and such United States ollicors, as had beon duly
commissioned, lo bo in tho undisputed exercise of
their ofiioial luuctinng;
And whereas, Then, now exists no organized armed
resistance of misguided cit zens or others to the
authority of tho United states in the States of
Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, North Carolina,
Tennessee, Alabama, Loulsiaua, Arkansas, Missis
sippi ana Florida, aud the law can bo sustained and
eulorced therein by tho proper civil authority, State
or Federal, and tho people ot the said btatos are woll
and loyally disposed, and nave coinormeu, or will
conform, in their legislation to the condition of
affairs growing out oi the intendment to the Con
stitution of tlio United Stm a prohibiting slavery
within the limits and jurisdiction ot the United
States;
And whereat. In view of th beforo recited pre
mises, it is the manifest determination ot the Amu
ncau people that no estate, ot Is own will, has the
right or thn power to iro out of or separate itself
irom the American Union, ana fiat, tucrolore. each
State ought to remain and constitute an integral pare
ot tne United States;
And whtrean, tbo people of tno several before
mentioned States have in the wanner aforesaid
given satisfactory evidence that ruey acquiesce in
this sovereign and ltnportunt revolution of national
unity ; y
Awl whereas, It is believed to be fundamental
principle oi Govorumout that people who bave re
volted, and who have been overcomotnd subdued,
must either be dealt with so as t induce them volun
tarily to become friends, or else they uust bo hold
by alsoluto military power, or devasuted so as to
prevent them irom ever again doing hu-m as ene

manity and freedom;
And whereas, lhe Constitution of the United
StateB provides lor constitutional communities only
as States, ana not as territories, dependencies, pro
vinces or protectorates;
4nd vthereas, buch constituent States nust neces
sarily be, and Dv the Constitution and laws of tho
UniteO Mates are, made equals and plaood upon a
like looting as to political rights, immunities, dig

the? are united ;
And whereas, Ihe observance of po'itical equality
as a principle ot right and justice is woll cilculated
to encourage tho people ot tuo aforesaid Ma es to

vering in their renewed allegiance:
And whereas, Standing armies, military occupa

pension ol the privilege ot the writ of habeas oirpus,
nre in time of peuce dangerous to public libor.y, in.
compatible with (he individual rights ol the citizen,

THREATENED TROUBLES
. . IN EUROPE. .
Austria and Prussia Preparing
War-Wlufnt Is All About.
for
Etc., Kte XteM EU. Ete Ete Ete.
The City nf Paris, it will Bo seen, brines Intclll.
Fence of the highest importance, as to tho relations
of Austria and Prussia the sum and substance of
which is, that as Prussia seems to huve made an nor
mind to annex the Duchies, Austria has determined
to resist, and to that end is making active prepara
tions to send a powerful army to the irontier Some
reports say that army is one hundred thousand
strong, and that before many days it will be on the
borders of Bohemia. Thero are rumors contradict
ing or modifying this, a little, but tho latest telo
rrams my these are not to be ro.led upon, and that
the crisis is sufficiently alarming to create tho oou
viction that a conflict is Inevitable.
Though the history of this now complication In
European politics must bo familiar to the read r
who takes an interest in European politic', a brief
resume of its origin and progress mav not be unin
teresting. Prussia now openly declares that tho
Duchies were taken from Denmark, not to bo
made an independent State, nor to maintain the
rights of Augustenburg, but to strengthen the
Prussian monarchy. For a year past Count Bis
marck has scarcely thought it neoosary to make
any concealment of this purpose, and now ho boldly
avows it. Annexation is proposed by the minister
and the press which supports him; and it is also
apparently approved by the Prussian people. On
the other side, Austria, with the more or less timid
support ol the minor Mates, demands that tho will
of the Confederation and the rights of legitimacy
shall be respected. Passing over conferences, con
ventions, missions, and despatches, this ropresonls
the real question now at itsue. It Is one upon whioti
negotiation has been exhausted, I or where one party
is determined to yield nothing, tho other must take
the alternative of submission or war. That is the
position of Austria,
Count Bismarck has carried matters with so high
a hand, that Austria is, as it were, driven to the
wall. He has, apparently, mado no more account
of her than if she were one of tho minor powers
whose enthusiasm led to tho spoliation irom which
they wero to gain so littlo. Austria, however, em
barrassed as she is In her finances and in her rela
tions with hor great dependency, does not shrink
from the contemplation of war. Hence, prepara
tions tor war are mud on eaoh side. In both capi
tals militaiy councils are held, gonerals nominated,
plans of campaign discussed, and tho ques'ion
whether tho territory ol the neutral Statos of Cior
many shall be turned Into a battle-flVld for theso
f reat territorial rivuls to light out their battle upon,
discussed as if tho rights of those Slates and the
interests of industry and civilization woro of no
account.
On the 13th the King of Prussia bold a conncil of
war, and in Vienna wo learn that the Government
has consulted its military commanders as to tho
readiness of tho army to take tho Held, the state ot
tho Bohemian foi tresses, and the points in tho king
dom of Saxony which could bo occupied by tho Im
perial lorcts. According to custom, a member of
the reigning llouso is appointed to high command.
Archduke Albrccht has been named as one ot tho
leaders, if not the General-in chief ottho Austrian
army. Field Sturshal Beiiedek and Huron Hess,
known lor their services m lounor campuiens, have
a so been consulted.
Continental Euroyo Is thus again on tho thresh
old of great events, tho issue of which, or tho new
complications to which it may give rise, it Is impos
sible just now to loroseo. It is only certain that the
news wo are to receivo from that quarter, lor somo
time to come, will bo of extraordinary and exciting
interest. V. Y. Exprees.

TnE Late William S. Tikeie. A larsre
mectincr of ttie members of the Press Club ot
Philadelphia took plttce yesterday afternoon to
take action in relation to the death of the late
William, 6. Pierio, Commercial Editor of the
A'orttt American and Untied Stales Gazette.
Alter un expression of icelintrs oi regret of the
Keutlemen present at. the death of Mr." Pierie, a
committee wiih appointed consisting of Mesbrs.
Stephen X. Wmslow, William V. iMcKean, J.
Davis Wutuon, Thompson Westcott, ami L.,Waln
Suiith, to tlrul't a report in reference to the' de
ceased. Mr. Winslow, from the said committee, re
ported the following:
'Iho Press Club of Philadelphia having received in
telligence of the death ot Air. William S. Pierio, ouo
ot its members, placos upon its record this testimo
nial ol esteem lor the deceased, and of rogrut at his
death.
Mr. Pierie has been connected with tho newspaper
press ol J hiiadelpma lor twonty-ono years, and
during that period he hag shown himself to be a most
luithlul mau m the Ulsctiargo 01 too peculiarly Ooli
cate duties of a commercial editor, fie was a man of
strict integrity, nothing having ever occurred in his
long career to blemish his pure reputation in tho
slightest degree In bia lutercouise with his asso
ciates be was invariably kind aud courteous. He was
a journalist ot uutinng industry, always at tbo place
oi outy, and in tho loregoing respects was a model
which his juniors may well regard in a spirit of emu
lation. In all tne relations of lite Mr. Pierio was a
thorough Christian gentleman, and wel entitled to
every tn'onte of resjieot.
Jtesuived, That the foiogoing testimonial bo placed
upon the minutes ol the association, and that a copy
ol iho samo be presented to the family.
lleiolved, 1 hat in respect to tho memory of the
deceased, ihe members of tho Press Club will attend
his funeral as a body.
Jlesolved, That a member bo appointed to prepare
a biographical memoir of the decousud, to be read at
somo luture uieetiugof tbe Club;
Messrs. Whitlow, Watson, and J. Bell deli
vered appropriate addresses in respect to the
memory ot the deceased. The last-named gen
tleman, alluding to a recent visit to Mr. Pierie
a fbort time before his death took place, said
that he found the patient sullerer calmly await
ing the final moment. As death approached
there was no terror. The dying man, iu a long
and cventlul life, had been faithful to his trust,
lie was nn honorable and honest citizen, a true
Christian; and now, when the last moment was
at haLd, when he was to pass ironi time to eter
nity, death had no sting lor him, nor could the
grave claim a victory.
A halo of glory seemed to encircle the brow
of tho dying man, and with the brightest hopes
of immortal blins, Mr. Pierie breathed his life
out calmly there, and passed to that realm
where sorrow is unknown. There is sub
limity in the death of the Christian, for Jesus
can make the dying bed feel soft as downy pil
lows are.
Mr. Stephen N, Winslow was appointed to
prepare a biographical memoir ol the de
ceuted, to be entered upon the records of
the Club. ,

thought that an election will bo had this even
ing, but thai depends entirely ou the action ot

pointed at the course the question took last
week. nni nave not Hesitated to express incir
disapprobation in tho most decided manner.

Dir. ccovci in tne opposition ne muue to a jouu
meeting.
Agricultural. The farmers nre now
busy throughout Camden county in, preparing
their fields for early crops, some of whica havo

nipped by trout being thus greatly lessened.
Scarcity of IIotjsf.s. Tho scarcity ot
dwelling houses iu Camden has been a great
annoyance tor a vear past, the applications ex
ceeding the supply as turfO to one. Should au
increase ot double the number of dwellings
