That avy interference by Congress for the preven- tion of slavery in any of the Ferritories would be an inex- ‘curable and unconstitutional infringement of the rights of the Soush, which—it is the delioerate secse of this € nvention—it would be the duty of the peopie o: Ala- dams to reeist, even to & disrup ion of the ties that bind ‘this State to the Union. 5, That the act of Congress, providing Territorial go- ‘Veruments for M+ braska and Kansas, embodies the ia- ciple of Congressional non interference upon the sabject very in the Territories. and tha’ tne provisions of tact, #0 far as they relate to thet subject, meet the hearty concurrence and approval of thii sunvention. 6, That the restoration of the Missourt Compromise line by Congress would be a great wrong, resistance to which, even to the extent of a disruption of the Univa, would bs a sacred duty with ail who cherish the essential Pringiples of constitutional right and State equality. 7.

Wa‘ , have by their action in Congress deserve! the hearty approba tion of their constituents, which we feel that we are at liberty to express to them, INDIANA DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. The democrats of Indiane held their State conven- tion at Andianopolis, on the Sth inst., and after no- minating candidates for the State offices, adopted the following resoluticns:— Whereas, ‘The time iv near at hand when the people of Inoiere will ve colied upon to indicate by au expresaion ut the ballot bex the measures ana poltsy which thoy ap- prove, ard wirh ty be executed in the administration of their government: Re-clved, ‘That the democratic party of the State, here in convertion sseembled, in c mivimity wita established ussge, and sith e firm reliance on the virtue sed intelti- gence of the people, submit the followiog aeclaration of principles 1. We approve the p:inciples of the compromite mea- sures of 1830 and their apphicstion as emodied in the Kaurws Nebraska bili, and will faith‘ully maintein them. 2. We recognize the great body of the people aa the only tiibupal ter the decision of qnestions sifectiog their government, both as to men and measures; anc opsa ap- vevls to thelr reason and patriotism as the legitimate evns of influencing their action, and we utterly oon- yn all associations and ¢ »mbinations for political pur- poses formed to govern them by oaths and obligations or other compulsory means, er tu impair the exercise of sree will and independent judgment among them, And we hold in abhorrence all secret politics! orders and or- ganizaticns, deeming them dargeroua to tne stability of government and the rights of tue people. 3. We are in favor of religious toleration, as the found- ers of our republican institutions achieved and understood it, and secured its enjoyment by coustitational guaran- apd we declare that it oaght to be maintained free invasion, either by means of legislative interference or the equally tyranzical proscription of political par- ties, founded on bigotry and ideas of intolerance. 4. While we esteem is the duty of government to fos- ter end protect religion without inviuious preferences, leaving it free to chcose amoog denuminauions aesording ‘to their consciences; and while we exeem that part ot true religion, under every form, to render allegianse and due support to government, recognizing the constitution all temporal and political eon cerns, we bold the separate administra'ion of the effairs of Church and State essential to prevent that union of the two, which experience bas shown to be peraicious to Doth, and the worst form of tyranny. 5. That while we are in favor of sobriety and tempe- rance, and of all proper means for the promotion of those virtues, we are unconditionally opposed to the pro- hibitory liquor law pus-ed 2% the last sersion of the Ge- nerai Assemub y of this State, nnd to any enactment em- pooying the oppressive and arbitrary provisions of that w. ¢. That our naturalization laws, our republican inati- tutions, our marvellous growth in national greatn: and the happiness of our people. bave been and are irre- sistible inducements and invitations to the inhsbitanta of less favored Jands to become citizens of ours; and that past experience, justice, sound policy, and na ional pride, sil concur to favor the continuance of our present vaturulization laws; that if any abuses have grown up under there laws, they ba ze sprung from their imperfect sphere of ite granted powers, and to secure to the Staces | execution slope, and not from inherent defects in the ‘and the people ali other powers not so granted and so ‘administered ax to cultivate and preserve traternal senti ments and relations between the different members of ‘the confederacy; amd to give streegth and darability to such a Union, the democracy of fennessee stand always ready to pledge “their lives, their fortunes and their sa- ered honor.”” Resolved, That the experience of more than three score of years demonstrates thet our fathers who tormed the constitution and founded upon it the Union, were inspired with a degree of wisdom, foresight and patriotiam almost superhuman, and therefore we can best manifest our gratitude for tnoir Ulustrious services, and our reverence for their giorfous memories, by resisting with all our energies ‘every attempt to disturb or destroy the harmony or sym- metry of workmanship, or to defeat and nullify tne eficacy cf its provisions by false constructions or in sidious attacks upon its fundamental principles, as the sure guaranty of & permanent federal Union. ; Remsived, That amongst the great principles which animcted the hearts and energized the arms of ourfRe- volutionary fathers, we recognize as prominent those jaws themselves, and that we are in favor of that policy which will soonest assimilate naturalized citizens with the mass of our reeple, and oppored to that anti-Ameri- can apd illiberal policy which proscribes the foreign born citizen for the accident of birth, and drives him in self- defence, to antagonism with our nutive born citizens in feeling, political opinions. and conduct. 7. Tbat the gallant band of democrats in Congress, who, throughsut the protracted ana yet pending contest for the organization of the House of Represeatatives, have so nobly illustra‘ed the national character of the demo- cratic party. by their unanimous adherence to ita prin- ciples, maintaining atone, an unbroken front, while the factions of the opposition, destitute of a common priaci- ple to bind them together, are disunited and discordant —bave ceserved well of their country, and rendered the most empbatic tes:imony to the excellence of their poli- tical creec—that our sympathies are with them, and that we look to thera with proud ccnfdence to maintain un- sullied the honor of their country, and to surrender no- thing for a coalition with factivns opposed to civil and re- ligious liberty. and to the cons‘itution of their country. 8.

Great DEsTaAUCTION OF Prorerty.—Tax Rica- MOND AND Danviiae Rannoap Derot ix Re1ya.—Bho Richmond Dispatch gives the following azcount of the falling of the rocf of the depot of the Richmond and Dan- ville Railroad in that city, @ brief notice of which we ave yesterday:—On Saturday evening Inst, between the {tours of 7 and 8 o'clock, the entire roof to’ the large and nt depot of the Richmond and Danville Railroad Company, in thia city, gave way from the great weight of snow upon it, and fulling in crushed ou: the brick walls, making a complete wreck of the whole building. The depot was 225 feet long on the west side, 210 feet on the east pitts, = 132 onc wide, and covert y one sup! only ty small’ iron rode, prevented a wide surface for the falling snow, which had accumulated to a depth of several inches before the accident occurred. Fortu- nately no one was in the building at the time, and n> lives were, therefore. lost. This depot was erected at a cont of $25,000 to the company, about two years since, and was one of the largest in the South. When the roof we way, the north gable end was thrown out with such force thet the weit of the bricks burst through the south wall of Mr. Archibald Thomas’ tactory, injuring that house to the amount of several hundred dollars, It is impossivle to estimate the Joss to the company, and to the werchants and farmers who had freight in the de- pot, bat we fear it will fa}! but little short of $50,000 and there were in the building, at the time of the o currence, some 15,000¢ bushels of wheat, besides hogs- heads and cases of tobacco, lots of guano and merchaa- dise of almost evary character. was als) two on three freight cara érushed by the falling timber, and one of them literally ground into fragments, Soon after the accident occurred, one of the young men employed at the cepot mado bir way through the ruios to the “ up freight” clerk’s office, and secured the books, Ifthe snow is removed at once from off the freight, as we sup- +e it will be, much lose wil be avoided. find the aeci- ent occurred in the day, instead of at night, the loss of life would have been inghttul. as a number of men were constantly engaged 10 teceiving and delivering freight during business hours. A gontieman residing in the neighborhocd says the noise was fo great when the roof gave way that he felt sure an earthquake had taken place. The Turf. GEORGIA.

Stocking, to-day suffered death on the aged en that being the penalty of the law in this State for the crime of murder. They were not partners in the offence for which they together were made to die. Indeed, there is no evidence showing that either were directly reaponsible for the death of their fel- low, but between accessories and principals to the crime of murder the law makes fo distinction. To be sure they have under euch circumstances a stron; claim for ag but inthe case of Rice, Driskil and Stocking, it has availed them nothing. Evils | sanctioned by community which have been instrn- mental in leading these young men astray had no weight in expiuting the dreadful doom to which they were consigned. We have never reulized the frailty and littleness of human nature, never felt to look with contempt upon our fellow man as we bave to-day, whilst luok- ing out upon the hundreds and thousands of mea, women and children who have filled our streets and lined cur sidewalks, SUTTON He.

As we write this, a | riot justcommenced, sticks of wood, brickbats and everything at hand are Wee) thrown by the | crowd on the north side, and Marshal Godman, within the yard, has just been knocked down and carried off badly hurt. Ata quarter past two the riot seamed to have been pretty nearly quelled. The- police found it neceskary to act on the ag and sent apart. of their force among the crowd. Mayor Miller was on hand with the outside ’force, and after using their clubs pretty freely for a time, “conquered a peace.” nae 7 f-past two the Lye were preparing for the gallows. Being properly dressed, t! ipso Ay under the direction “of the Sheriff, to the execution room. -On their arrival there, each of the prisoners took his position on the scaffold. The Sheriff told Stocking he could addreas those assembled if he chose. He raid, in substance, that he had not had a | fair trial. He knew nothing of the burning of the | warehouse and murder of Rose until Saturday fol- | lowing the affair. So faras the crime of murder ! was concerned, he died an innocent man. Rice made an extended speech. He said:—Gen- tlemen, my name is Abram Rice; you all know me; Icame here in 1840. I am now going todie. Idie for men who were cowards, was at Fahren- bangh's on the night of the murder. I'll tell youall about it. Longley and Clark came tome the day before, and asked me to buy them some powder and shot. They said they were going to the ice nouse, and as some other fellows might be there they want- edto be prepared. Clark went with me, and we bought five cents worth of powder and ball 1 af- terwards met Longley and Clark at Haggerty's; 1 asked them where they were going. They said to the ice house, and asked me to go ulong. We met Driskill at the swing bridge. It was raining and he had an umbrella. We all went to the ice house. The rest went in, but I was too drunk to climb the ladder. I laid down at the cor- ner of the house and went to sleep. They waked me when they came down, and said they were oing out to Wild Cat; they said there were women there; Driskill wanted to take me back home, bat I pinsisted on going along; when we got to the other side of the wide water, Longley proposed to chan; coats, and said if [ would act the srpple that he would have no difficulty getting i agreed; we went up to the house and knocked; Fahrenbaugh, I suppote it was, gutup and opened it; the boys forced meé in; there was a low fire; I sat down in a chair by it; had no sooner done so than I heard a pistol; it appeured to be behind my back, next to the door; it was all over in less than a minute; we started then; T asked the boys what it all meant, but got no an- awer; we parted this side of Alleu’s, and I came home. This, gentlemen, isthe whole truth. Iam going to die; toe no coward, but die innocent of either murder or robbery. 1 forgive my enemies, and hope that God Almighty will also forgive them; I leaye my love to all.” ii suid that Rice had said all he (Driskill) y. He hoped that nothing would be pub- lished about him but the truth, for the sake of the feelings of his friends. Much had been published about him that was false. He, too, forgave all who bad wronged him, and hoped God would forgive them also. Rice then ingnired if the Prosecuting Attorney, Mr. Naylor, was present, and on being told that he was not, he expressed his regret, as he had something to say to hi He said that in his trial he stood no chance. I hate to speak it,” be remarked, “but I think the Prosecutor took unfair advantage of me. He went around to ali the other prisoners, to get all the facts he could against me, but he never came to me to ask me Seething I know, too, that some of them told him i cent. Why was I put on my trial first, then? It's unfair to try a man right off. And I think jurymen cught not to be called from the country. They ought to be men of education. A countryman would say toaman on the street, Do you know Abe Rice? Yes, he isa bad man; he once tried to kill me;” and he allows that to bias his mind. It is very hard to get the right kind of jurymen,I know. ‘There aie so Many ignorant men.” At the request of Driskill he then made a state- ment in regard to conduct in one of the iurymen on Driskill’s trial towards his (Driskill’s) mot! of a most outrageous character, which, for good reasons, we oa ised publishing, but which certainly de- serves investigation. He concluded by again bid- ding “good bye to all,”" and turning to the Sheriff said, “Hon. Mr. Sheriff, | am ready.” Duing the delivery of the above remarks, the speaker gave every evidence of sincerity and trnth- fulness of what he uttered. He could have no mo- tive in misrepresenting facts, and we have no doubt but that his story will be generally credited. Clark and Longley declared that Rice knew where he was going and for what purpose, when they left this city for the Wild Cat on the night of the murder. Rice, as will be seen, denies this. Considering the circumstances surrounding each at the time of their declarations, there will be little trouble in deciding which to believe. The time having arrived for the execution, the Sheriff acked if all were ready. Rice replied, “ All ready.” The Sheriff then knocked away the pin and the three culprits were ushered into eternity. Latest from the Seminole Massacre. om the Savam ieorgian. } We are gratified to learn by a letter trom Fort Myers, in the =F Peninsular of the 9th, ot the safety of Lieutenant Hartsuff, supposed to have been murdered du- ring the late barbarous massacre. The names of the kiued were Horth, company ‘,’’ American; Foster, ‘“E;"’ Curren and Muravgh, “KK,” Irish. Tne following is a re- lis ble onc ccnnected statement of the affair -— On Sonaay, December 16, Lieut. Harteuff and party were halte: about 1en miles from Fort Drum. The Liea- tenant took two men and went toau I; encampment, about three miles distant; saw an Indian, who ran trom them. Proceeded next day to Fort Drum; foand it barnt down; noticed that all the sign-posts and mile-posts were torn down. Monday mgit, started for Fort Shackelford; yeached it Tuesdvy; found that also burnt down. Lieut Hl, took parties, and went in differen; routes to Indian ‘ampments; caw no one, Lett Fort Shackelford on Saturday, and arrived that night at Fort Dram. Started to Bow Leg’s town on Monday; arrived within three miles of it, and encamped. Tieutenant Hartsuff took three of his men and went into it; saw no one; some of the men in the party took a bunch of ba- nanas; next day turned off to the left and visited an- other indian evesinpment; saw no one; received or- ders on night of 19th to prepare on Zoe wa o to atact for Fort Myers 20th; on morning o' re lying in @ gine grove, If acre in extent, and about § A. M. were busy getting ady to march, harnessing, &c., when the war whoop sounded, and they recefved # volley. This, of course, was utterly unexpeced, and all was confusion.’ Some lit: tle firing from the party ensued, but several were out of the reech of their arms. Williams was sixty yards dis- tant from his rifle, saddiing his herve; be mace his es- cape. Those who could get their pieces fired them, and the rest loacec for the Lieutenant, who fought bravely until he was wounced, when he exclaimed: ‘‘I am done tor,”’ but sudcenly pulling out his pistol cried out’ ‘No, by ‘heavens, the pistol has saved my life, for the ball has struck it!’ Hannah and Baker were wounded at this time, The survivors then reparated, and itis presumed the plunder alone prevented the savages from pursuing ero. ‘Ax for lent, Hartauff, wounded in his arm and sides, he hid himself in the water and rushes, where ho lay concealed many hours, during which time some ons (suppored to be Bow Iegs,) called to him, in very good Fogiish, ‘Come out! come out! Pil not kill youl? ‘This wase however, an evident feeler to assure themselves cof his whereabouts and lure him to bis death, He was subsequently able to crawl to Fort Dru ‘There, being unable to proceed farther, he lay down to but first wrote an account of the matter on the mar- gon of a newspaper, with peneil. intending to fasten it to n tree, that bis record might be extant; so he laid him down in a yine grove and slept, hourly expecting that death, in some shape, would visit him. It éark ‘when he awoke, and you may ima- 6 the revolution of feeling, you may oon- ceive bis joy, when the sweet music of the drum benting off tattoo, met bis ear. (Ro tattoo to him, but the most joyful of reveilles, indicating the dawning of afety.) But how shall he tell them of his presence’ How indicate that he, one whom they seek, is near? Suc- cenly he bethough: him of bis pas and although there was but little hopes that the charge would be dry, yet the trial must be made for he cannot walk to them. He drew ani fired the pistol, fortunately it exploded—the guard heard it—the long roll was beat that the poor fu- gitive might be assured his friends had recog- nized the signals—they formed and marched en masse to his reeene, And oh! what a meeting!
