The Whigs of Washington county, in their
Convention, adopted the following resolutions :
Whereas, it is the time-honored custom of
the Whig party to declare its principles as of
ten as suitable occasions are olfered. There
fore, 1. Jieoired, That as a distinctive feature in
our political creed we place our trust in the
virtue, th intell;genceI.thc patriotism and
discriminating justice ol the American people.
2. Rrsol.cl, That we reitor.de and re-alihm
the Old Whig doctrine on the subject of the
Tariif, to-wit : that in the imposition (' duties
on foreigu imports it is the duty of the Gov
ernment to discriminate so as to aC'ord ade-
qr.ate and com;
iete protection to such -uieri-
can manuiactures as come into ueaiructirc ;
competition with foreign articles of the same j
kind.
Jicsulre t. That the Government ou.cjht to be I
deprived of the proceeds ol' the public lands ; j
that a TaritT discihiiiii d'mg as above should ;
be sntlieicntiy high to meet -the demands;
against the treasury for the ti itional expenses ; i
and that the said proceeds should be distiibu- ;
ted iiinong the people of the Slates for school j
and siniih r purposes. j
Jtenclred, That we are i favor of a wise and !
judicious system of internal improvements by j
the United Sutes, separate ami r.part from J
State or Federal corporations, for tin' piotee- i
tion of life an 1 commerce on our rivers and !
harbors.
Jlcsolccll That the late outrages perpetrated
on the lrce citizens of Xt::ist:n, by an tinned
Pi0-S! :rer-j mob from Mis.MUii, calls for the
deep execration of tho American people: ami
tiie course of the President of the United
States iu not protecting the people of that'
Territory against the armed bullies of Sena
tor Atchison, shows that lie is unlit to be the
Executive of a Free People, and merits the
condemnation of ail true friends of the Consti
tution. Jiesolrei!, That the Tiopeal of the Missouri
Compromise, was v. most shameful violation of
the plighted fitiih oi the uuiiou ; and as citi
zens of a Pree State, we hi-re by pledge our
selves to work lawfully but untiringly fur its
restoration.
L0C3 F0C3 jlirC'CilSi".
We hear iu tliese latter days a great deal
from the Loco i'oco press against what they
are pleased to call tiie proscriptivviiess of tiie
Americans. We hoar nothing front them iu
favor of the rights of conscience ; with them,
to! 'ration is Cue favorite phrase. And how dj
they show their spirit of toleration Look at
the past. Look at JS'cw Hampshire. where un
til recently, they held uncontrolled sway for
tho last quarter of a century. In that State,
the i!oia ui Catholics are prosct ibvl to a'.i in
tents and purposes, as much as they could be
if the Americans had been all fne time in
powwr. Why do they not complain of it i
And why do not the Loco i'oco press tiud
fault with the so-cailcd JN"ev Hampshire Demo
cracy 1
There must be a cause for all this, and what
is that cause ? Why it is that President Pierce,
who was so long the leader of the Democracy
which proscribed Catholics in his own State,
so suddenly after his election became their
friend and patron, and now receives them
with so much favor at the White House. Tho
Whigs for many years attempted to abolish
tho proscription ; and in the last Presidential
election male it a test question. If it was
otlen.iive to the Catholics, it is reasonable to
suppose they would have joined the Whigs in
tho-dlbit at emancipation. Put they did not
do it they stackto the Democracy like leech
es. It is to be inferred, therefore, tli.it they
either care nothing about it, or they have a
higher stake to watch after in the appoint
ments of the General Government. It is a
little singular that a President, chosen from a
State so long remarkable for its proscription j
of Catholics, and he a leading man iu it, I
should be the first President honored by a Hu
man Pontiff with an autograph letter ami in
which the still more singular request was made
to vouchsafe the protection of his Holiness'
Legate. To say the least of it there is a niys
terv in all this ; and more especially so, when
we reflect that much of the now prevailing ex
citement against Catholicism has been 'caused
by the partiaUty his administration has shown
for those ot that creed in the distribution of
the public patronage. May it not be summed
up in this, lie feels that he owes in a great de
gree his election to them I
Rr.uiTi;:s op Lick. A correspondent of tho
X. Y. Tri v.'ie. gives us an example of an 'east
ern man who went West to make his fortune, j
'While our boat, says the writer, 'was tied to ;
the bank for an hour, we seated ourselves on
the shore, 'ami ho gave me an account of
the course he has followed, and the difficulties
he has contended with. lie tt.irted for the t
West with a r-niall sum of money iind the ;
blacksmith trade. He went down the Ohio as
a steerage passenger, reached St. Louis, and
thence up th? Illinois, till his money failed.'
He stopped and worked to get his pure re-j
c raited to retch a friend's house. There he
worked a month to pay a man for bringing his
chest from the Illinois Liver. Fin illy he reach- '
ed Chicago, got a contract on the Illinois ami i
Wisconsin Canal, was getting rich, when Illi
nois scrip made him poorer than when he be
gan. Then the chills and fever laid him up a
vear. Let this suliiee for a specimen. At last ;
he returned to Chicago, bought enough boards
on credit to make blacksmith s shop oy- suck
ing the ends in the ground and bringing tht
tons together. In this he began to mike plows
w hich his father-in-law wooded in a snt ill j
room in the small houso which ho and his son- !
in-law had rented. Prom that time he has i
gone steadily forward, until now his car facto- j
ries cover the principal parts of two squares j
in the city, which be purchased, one for some
$150 ), and tho other for some $0,000. , The
city i-- elready far bevond him. and by the rise
of property alone be is rich, while his facto- !
ries are Bringing him a fine revenue. -This
man says that rather than go throutrh
all his hardships again, to attain his present,
and prospective Wealth, he would sooner bo .
content with a mechanic's days wages.

TroriJIES CTT THE ITAIIIE LAV7.
One of thu editors of the Xational Temper
ance Organ, Cincinnati, has visited Portland,
Maine, and seen lor Limself some of tho 'rui
nous consequences" of the Maine Lavv. These
he describes so graphically, that we will let
him speak l-nr himself:
" Among the most eloquent things wo saw,
were the ruins of several distilleries. A few
years ago. they flourished on the ruins of do
mestic peace and happiness; nov, the fami
ly smiles o'er their leveled and del.tpidated
remains. Let those who doubt the einciency
of the Maine Law, go there and see these rel
ics of past barbarism ; let them see old vats
and wails crumble into dust, leaving no trace
of the dark spot where misery and death were
brewed for the human, family ; and then lot
them be forever silent us to the operation of
that law.
We 'had several friends, who, to satisfy their
curiosity, went around into every hole and
corner of the city, and endeavored by every
crafty means, to oLtain liquor, but were una
ble to succeed in a single iustee. This, we
i thought, was i.icKy eoncliisivo
We fell into
conversation with a gentleman who hsd been
an ardent oppos-r of the law at the start, and
ho took a walk with us up into a part of the
city which is settled exclusively by Irish.
He said before the law passed, that it was a
collection of miserable hovels, occupied by a
pitiful set of families; but now, they arc very
neat and comfortable dwellings; and the in
habitants are frugal, industrious atul peaceable.
This change, he said, could be attributed to
no other cause than the Maine Law. 1'eX'orc,
they spent their money for whiskey; now,
they save it for the necessaries and cemforis
of life. With all the liquor p.urty, wa think,
in no instance have they been successful in
eludins: the vicrilence of the law.
Xi:w "Wheat Alueaiy Comix to this
Makket. The Cincinnati Gazelle of June 2o,
says: A lot of new wheat was received to
day from Memphis, and orlered in our market
at $1 oU, and a purchaser not being foundit
was re-siiijicd to Pittsburg.. 1 he impression
seetis to be that if the crop is safely secured,
prices will recede to $1, but ttiey will touch
at several points before. reaching that figure.
-V few days of seasonable sunshine would pre
pare the wheat for the sickle in this section.
In Southern Indi uia, a large portion of the
crops h is already been secured. The Vincen
nes Gxzrf'e. informs us that the wheat crop in
that vieiuit is one of the best, if not the best
ever raised, and the breadth of land one-third
greater than ever before. T iie coin was quite
small for the period f t' the season, but tho
lields were ch an, and ihe plants of remarka
bly food color. A correspondent writing from
P.vi.b-iph county , Jud., under date of yester
day, anys Ibe wh .'at looks well; and if tiie rust
does not strike it ihero will be a full crop.
