THI CUIGAGO CONVIJATION.— The telegraph announced yesterday that the time for the meet ing of the Republican National Convention at Chicago, has been changed from the 12th of Jane to the 16th of May. This arrangenient has been made In deference to the wishes of a large majority of the RepubliMmeTtho day originally filed having been regarded as too late to admit of a complete and thorough organization of the party. Lees than a month will therofoie inter vene between the assembliog of the Charleston and Chicago Conventions. Tea DEMOCRATIC 'SSICITIMIAL FLA:I7OIUL The Democratic Senatorial Caucus have adopted the resolutions offered in the Sonata all the 21 of February, by Jefferson Davis. We pnbliah, these resolutions, as they are of peculiar impor tance at this juncture. , l' &sorra, not, In the adoption of the Fed eral Constitution, the States abopting the same acted severally as free and Independent Boyer, eigoties; delegallog a portion of their OWEVII. to be exercised by the Federal Government for the increased security of each against dangers, do. sneak as well as foreign; and that any intermed- Ming by any- one or more States, or by a com bination of their citizens, with the domestic butt (Miens of the others on any pretext, whether political, moral or religions, with the view to their disturbance or subversion, is in ?violation of i the Constitntiou, insulting to the States so interfered' with, endangering their Idomestio petite and tranquility—objects for which the Constitution, was formed—and, by necessary consequences, serve to weaken and destroy the the Union iteelf. „ 2. Rev)lned, That negro slavery, as, it exists in fifteen States in the Union, composes an im portant portion of their domestic institutions, in limited from their ancestors and existing 01 the ad,option of the Constitution, by which It is re-' sognized as constituting an important Cement of the apportionment of powers among the States, and that no change of opiniener feeling otr the part of the non-staveholding States of the Union, in relation to this institution, can justify them or their Mtizens in open and eystematie attacks thereon, with a view to its overthrow, ; and that all such attacks are in manifest violation of the mutual and solemn pledge to protect and defend each other, given by the States reepectisely on entering into the constitutional compact which farmed the Union, and are a manifest breach of faith and a violation of the most solemn obli gations. 2. Resolord, That the Union of these States rests on the equality of rights and' releases among its members, and that it to eapechdly the duty of the Senate, which repreeents.the States in their sovereign capacity, to resist all attempts to diecrirainste, either in relation to persons or property, so as, in the Territories—Which Ire the common possession of the United States—to give advantage to the citizens of one Slate which are;not equally secured to there of every other State. , • 4. Rao red, That neither Coogread nor a ter- Social legislature, whether by direct : legislation or legislation of an indirect and unfriendly na ture, possesses the power to annul ce impair the the constitutional right - of any citizen of the United States to take his slave property into the common territories; but it is the dirty of the Federel Governmetit there to afford + for that as for other epecies of property the needful protec tion; and if experience should at any, time prove that the judiciary &rev net Onset; power to in- Sure adequate protection, it 'althea:bean:re the duty of Congress to supply such defieirsoy. 5. Rewired, That the inhabilantoof an organ ized Territory of the United States, When they rightfully form a constitution to be admitted u a State into the Union, may then, fur the first time--like the people of a State; wheel forrciing a new constitution—decide for themeeiXes whether slavery, as a domestic institution. shill be main lathed-or prohibited within their jarisdiction; and if Congress shall admit them As a State "they shall be received lido the Union with or without slavery, as their donalltation may pre scribe at the time of their, admission'," 6. Readred, That the pXorision of ihe Consti" Laden for the roailioe of fugitives from service or labor, "without the adoption ofl width the Union could not have been formed," and the laws of 1791 and 1850, which were i enacted to secure its execution, and the main ;features of which being similiar, bear the impress of nearly seventy years of suCtionthy the highest judic ial authority, have unquestionable claim to the respect and observance of all who enjoy the ben efits of our compact of i Union; and that the acts of the State legislatdres to defeat the pur pose or nullify the requirements of !that provis ion and the laws made in pursuance of it, are hostile in character; subversive of the Constitu tion, revolutionary in their effect, and if pandit , ed la, must sooner or later, lead the States in jured by such breaeh of the compel to exercise their judgement as to an proper mode and meas ure of redress. , ' THE MEXICAN Taeerr.—By the'. fifth &Male of the McLane Treaty, 'Mexico agrees that to case of her failure to protect the toter-oceanic routes, the United 13 tette play, at the request of the Government of MeSlco. or of the Mexican Minister at Washlngton,.or of the COmpetant lo na authorities, employ ; such forts SO may be ueoereary for the purpose.
