POSITION OF THE DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE UPON THE SUBJECT OF PEACE; WAR, AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS. The Democratic State Committee met in this city yesterday, and took the occasion to give expression to their sentiments and those of theii constituents, in regard to public affairs in this crisis of the country. The anomalous gathering of the rival Re publican factions at Utica, at which the con tractors and speculators in our country's ruin, and their deluded followers, and their secret emissaries, threw down a challenge to the peo ple, and boldly claimed the prostration of civil rights and Constitution and law, under the feet of the military power, offered a provocation difficult to pass in silence. The challenge was accepted. The Commit tee raise up the standard of the Union, the Constitution and the Laws, and call upon all true Democrats, upon all citizens whose rights are 'imperiled, to rally to it. It is the liberty of speech, civil and religious freedom, the right of trial by jury, and the privileges of the law, which are threatened on one side and are defended on the other. Nor is the issue thus made left to a mere declara tion of purposes and principles. The acts by which power seeks to establish usurpation and strike down liberty, are even moreformidable than the utterances of opinion, slavish, despotic and degrading as those have been. In the free and peaceful States of the North, far removed from the lines of military operations or the scenes of insurrection, the military power has dispersed conventions, de stroyed presses, silenced clergymen in their pulpits and citizens at public meetings, and seized them and subjected them to arbitrary punishments, under military law. The coer cion and falsification of the soldiers' vote under the dictation of civil authorities, as evinced, among other influences, in the ow of Lk t. Sdgerly, struck from the army rolls for voting the Democtaric ticket—these acts make up a sum of maladministratien, which calls for instant rebuke and defiance from the 'freemen of the country. In such a contest the voice of the Democracy will' be heard, in protest against the excesses of arbitrary power, and on the side of civil order, public right and true liberty. As regards the subjeet of Peace, which is the aspiration of every patriot, the Committee declare that the only true, lasting and benefi cent peace which can be made is one that will once more embrace the whole Union under the aegis of the Constitution. A peace on the basis of separation would be bnt another name for war. Separation would be but a step to disso lution, and dissolution to anaroby. There is too much reason to suppose that those who are recklessly asserting military authority at the North contemplate a peace upon the baeis of separation, and are deter mined to coerce the northern people into sub mission to it; anti in so. doing to consolidate a northern government, to be given up to Aboli ti3n rule, sustained by military power.. We cannot fru-t the question of peace to men who have shown themselves incapable of conducting a war, or of respecting the rights of States and the people that have patriotically stood by the country in this great national crisis. Those who demand an instant peace, propose in effect that the powers now at.Wa4h ington and at Richmond should partition this once united country between them, and destroy forever all the chances of its reconstruction, anit sink forever also the cause of constitutional liberty throughout the world. No! let u". uave no such peace! If war is fora, d upon us, as the alternative, let tier sus tain our armies in the field, with all the re sources they call for. Let us at. the same time sustain the cause of the Constitution and 'of tire doubly imperiled Union, and the cause of civil and religious liberty, at the ballot box When had men conspire let patriots combine Such, in general terms, is the purport of the resolution put forth by the committee, in lan guage of moderation but in terms sufficiently firm end explicit, Throe, worcio of protest and appeal. we believe, are um•ly. It is no time now, when our dearest rights are threatened, to he silent. It has not been the custom for the representative men of this or of any Re public to be cowed by the official insolence of civilians or the bravado of military power. THS AIVAI, STATE/ COMMITTEES OF THE LOYAL The rival factiona of the Seward and Chase Schools, who met in convention at Utica, each provided iteelY with a State Committee, to su pervise and regulate the proceedings of the Loyal Leaguers, secret and puhlir, throughout the State.

Of this latter committee, says the Herald cor respondent, "two-thirds are Seward men.— Just enough were put on from the other side to prevent the appearance of being one-sided. Many of them are old stagers in the Seward ranks. They did not shut the door so closely against fusion as did the party yesterday.— They left matters in such a condition that the onus of preventing a union between the two parties will rest on the Chase Leagues." We learn from the same authority that "a large number who have been here as delegates declared the whole League business a failure, from the fact of the crop fire of the several organizations." And the failure. in the numbers present on the second day, compared with the previous expectations, is accounted for by the fact that the Chase men gave out that the business of the Convention was completed on the first day ! Why these tricks, these counter-movements, this bitter rivalry ? If the reader will scan the list of names who figured and of the dummies put forward to act for them, he will find in the list of office-holders, shoddy-contractors, ad venturers, brokers and stock-operators, and in the fact that the government is now spending three millions a day, and daily convulsing the money-market by its action, so as to afford ex traordinary chances to spceulators "in the ring," the solution of this disgraceful specta cle. "Disgraceful," we do not hesitate to call it; for nothing more deserving the epithet has occurred in the country, as this jubilee of ram. pant politicians in the midst of National dis aster, and this open rivalry for the plunder of our unhappy country.. UTICA LEAGUERS CONVENTION - THE SOLDIERS CHEER FOR N'OLRLLAN. Correspondence of the New York Herald. Neither Brady nor Van Boren showed them selves. General Nye, Gerrit Smith and seve ral others of that character were among the speakers at the other stands. There were probably about six thousand people, including ladies, on the ground during the speeches, and one or two thousand about town going back and forth. A recess was taken about five o'clock until evening. A lot of soldiers immediately took possession of one of the stands, and com mewed cheering for M'Clellan, and praising him as a general; declaring him to be the only man that could lead the Army of the Potomac on to victory; denouncing in bitter terms the politicians in Washington, Congressmen and Senators, as opposing M'Clellan because he was settling the war in a business-like manner, and was interfering in their schemes to make capital out of it. They were especially bitter on the radicals in Congress and the Committee on the Conduct of the War. The remarks of the different soldiers on these points were greeted with great applause by their comrades. Some of them declared that many of their comrades were butehered at Fredericksburg to satisfy the intrigues of the politicians. Down with the Washington political conspirators." the others Would cry. "Give us M'Clellan to lead and we will 'all re turn to the war." This demonstration by the soldiers was kept up for nearly an hoar in that style. It, in feet, seemed as though they could not say too much in praise of 46 I,ittle Mac," or denounce in bit ter enough terms the intrigues against him at Washington. I hear numerous other instances of soldiers manifesting enthusiasm for M'Clellan, but will mention but one or two as being significant. Whilst Mr. Bruce was speaking at one of the stands, a soldier in an officer's uniform moun ted a barrel and declared this gathering an Abolition sell ; that he had• not heard a word from the Speakers, and then commenced cheer ing for M'Clellan. The soldiers of the 10th regiment rallied around him and joined in the cheers. They kept the matter up for some time, cheering first for M'Clellan and then for Porter. The result was. the crowd around the stand nearly all left, and they were obliged to send for the hand, who played the "Red White and Blue" before the audience wt:uld return. Their cheers were interspersed with groans for the politicians. Mr Townsend was also inter rupted in a similar way. Daring the rect•ss some of the Zouaves waited upon Gen Nye at the hotel, and told him that the only way to put. down this rebel lion was to place M'Clellan at the head of the army, and that it was his (Nye's) duty to tell those gathered here so. Hundreds of other instances of this kind took place. It, in fact, was M'Clellan first, last and all the time, with the soldiers. THE SOLDIERS ALL FOR M'CLELLAN. The Utica Observer says that the most nota ble street ineittents in that city during the sessions of tho Republican League Convention, were the discussions between the soldiers and the Leaguers about General M'Clellan. The Leaguers ahumed the favorite General and the soldiers supported him. A party of returned soldiers paid a visit to the town of Genesee, on Friday of last week, and with . cheers for M'Clellan and groans for Hooker and Gen. Wadsworth, (as the latter was passing by in his carriage,) they kept the town in a very lively ferment. The local pi per adds that the effect of all this was to pro duce numerous conversions, and that many men of the town, who wore in the habit of boisterously decrying M'Clellan as a traitor. were induced to cheer for him with all their "might and ortin." In Utica, a number of soldiers imported by the Leagnere nvirehoO to the Herald office, carrying a M'Clellan banner, and cheered lus tily for “Little Mac," Yellowing their cheers with groans fur the Black Repuhlican sheet, which has been one of the foremost in gratui. tous denunciations of the f:vorite Genersi.

Correspondence of the Patriot and Union. Noss°ix., Vi., May So, 1863 Messrs. Editors—On the 28th of this month the people of Virginia held their election, and it so happened that both Virginias voted on the same day. It seems rather novel to have two States of the same name, but such is the ease, since the admission of Western Virginia, there by thviding the Old Dominion. That part of the old State which is termed Western Vir. girds had the following State officers to elect— One person for Governor, one person for Lieu tenant Governor, and one person for Attorney General. The prominent candidates for the aforesaid offices were—Governor, Francis-H. Pierpont ; Lieutenant Governor, L. C. P. Cow per; Attorney General, Thos. Russell Bowden. They also elected a person to represent this district in Congress. L. 11. Chandler, Esq., had no opposition for this, and is therefore elected. From the returns so far received in Mr. Segar's district, he is re-elected. They also elected one person to represent them in the State Senate, - and one in the House of Del egates. The person elected State Senator was Charles 11. Whitehouse; and Frank Zantzinger to the House of Delegates. They alio elected a Mayor and the smaller officers for this city. It is now said that Norfolk will, in a short time, be governed by the•civil law, but it is not very likely to happen for some time—and until this rebellion is crushed it is very probable that 'a small force of troops will be kept here. The city is very quiet, but this is to be attributed to Gen. Viele's good management. I do not think any civil officers can rule Norfolk and have as good order as there now is. No war news here. All anxious to hear of the fall of Vicksburg. The weather is very warm and dry. S. K. J. THE OUTRAGE AT ICEORU.E.—Judge Oleg gett of Keokuk, whose newspaper was mobbed by a band of miserable ruffians at Keokuk— under the command of the officers and is the pay of the United States, writes a letter to the Burlington Argus, in which he details subse quent outrages to which he has been subjec ted. It .fairly makes one's blood boil • Although giving private bounties out of my own pocket to induce soldiers fo enlist, 'And contributing my money on all occasions when palled on, or when I have come actress owe of need for the relief of the wives and dependent families of our soldiers' in the field ; yet I have been thrice mobbed by the soldiers of the V.'B. army, led on and encouraged. by the officers' placed by the national administration over them. in the city of Keokuk, and more than $lO,OOO of my property ruthlessly destroyed, my dwelling house invaded, my wife and sick daughters and myself, put in jeopardy for our lives, and finally driven from my home in the city of Keokuk to seek safety' for my family at night by removing them from the cause of their dread and alarm, instead of proteotion and friendship. Other men have been arrested and imprisoned, but none of them have been mobbed through the orders of the officers of the U. S t . army, given to the soldiers without any charges of disloyalty having • been made against me. I have asked and demanded, and I do still demand, a trial if any one has any charges of disloyalty to make against me— there being no charges that can be sustained . in any tribunal, tither civil or military. These public officers lead the soldiers and command them to break down my fences in the night time, invade the aerially of my house, and drag cannon under. my windows and within my enclosures, and break all the windows in my house, and forcing and breaking the win dow sash over the heads of my wife and sick daughters, threatening my life, and to burn down my house over the heads of my family. A few days after this outrage, Mr. Dean having come to my house without my knowl edge, invitation or approbation, that night the soldiers, in different sqads, forcibly entered my house and the chambers of my wife 'and daughters, ransacking the building from gar ret to cellar the whole night long, and finally carried off my wife's gold watch and chain, (which has never been returned.) the canned fruit of my cellar, and the photograph like nesses of my family and friends, besidea keep ing the female members of my family in such a state of alarm, that they dared not go to bed. the whole night, although both of my 'daugh ters are in feeble health; one of them having been an invalid for more than four years.. I submit to a just public either of citizens or soldiers, whether there can be any excuse or apology offered for the treatment I have re ceived ' • yet, I can get no redress for the past, either through the civil or military authorities, .or any security for the future. TEM OLDEST CONTINENT.--:-Prelitiee, of the Louisville Journal, is occupying himself and instructing his readers, by writing a series of geologioal articles. . We extroctite renewing paragraph from his last essay. Commending Sir Charles LyelPs new work, he says: The , intelligent reader may learn that the North American continent was the first dry land that rose above the waters. There are on this continent many regions that were geolog ically very ancient, at the very time that mt. merous places in Europe, that are hoary with historic age were not yet barn from the womb of waters. Wrnen Europe and Asia were not continents, but represented only by a few islands, consisting of what 'are noir their mountain peaks, scattered over a, vast.expanse of ottesn when Mt.
