C?M?nti? Seaatsrlal NUInI fUtftMu Tift Dwrw resolutions pMNd lk? Senate on (he 25tli ultimo, by m strict party vote. Mr. IXmglas was not present. Tliey are as follow# : 1. Rrtolvtd, That in (lie adoption of the Federal Constitution, the State# adopting the same, acted severally as free and independent sovereigns, delegating a portion of their powers to be exercised by the Federal Government f-?r the increased security of each against dangers, domestic as well as foreign, ind that any intermeddling by any one or more States, or by a combination of .! 5.1. *L- J i s??. J iiieir citizen*, wuu me uuliiwic msuiu; ions of tbo others, on any pretext, whether political, moral or religious, with the view to their disturbance or subversion, is in violation of the Consti- j tut ion, insulting to the Slates so interfered with, endangers their domestic |Kjace and tranquility?objects for which tht Constitution was formed?and, by neccs*nry c insequence, serves to weaken and destroy the Union it self. 2. Resolved, That negro slavery, as it exists in fifteen Slates of the Union, composes an important portion of their Jomestic institutions, inherited from their ancestors and existing at the adoption of the Constitution, by which it is tecognized as constituting an important clement of Apportionment of powers among the Slates, and that no change of opinion or feeling on the part of the unn-alaveholding States of the Union in relation to tho institution, can justify thern or their citizens in open or covert attacks thereon, with a view to its overthrow ; and all such nltaeks arc in manifest violation of tho mutual and solemn pledge to protect and defend oarli oilier, eiven hv the Slates reanerf. ivfly on entering into the constitutional compact which formed the Union, and \ are a manifest breach of faith and a violation of the most 6olemn obligations. 3. llcsolvcd, That the union of these States rest* on the equality of rights and privileges among its members, and that it is especially the duty of the Senate, which represents the States in their sovereign capacity, to resist all attempts to discriminate, either in relation to person or property, so as in the Territories?which are the common pos sessions of the United States?to give advantages to the citizens of the one State which are not equally assured to t'hose of every other State. 4. Jicxolvaf, That neither Congress nor a Territorial Legislature, whether by dir-oet legislation or legislation of an indirect and unfriendly character, possesses the power to annul or impair the constitutional tight of any citizen of the United Mates to take Ins slave property into the common Territories, and there hold and enjoy the same while the Territorial condition temains. 5. Resolved, Thai if experience should at any time prove that the judi cinry and executive authority do not jossess the means to insure adequate protection to constitutional rights in a Teriitory, and if the Territorial Government should fail or refuse to provide the 1 necessary remedies for that purpose, it will be the duty of Congress to supply such deficiency. 6. Resolved, That the inhabitants of ? Territory of the United States, when tJrey rightfully form a constitution to be admitted as a State into the Union, may then, for the first time, like the people of a State when forming a new constitution, decide for themselves whether slavery, as a domestic institution, shall be maintained or prohibited within their jurisdiction; and if Congress admit i hem as a State, ' they shall be received into the Union with or without slavery, as their constitution may prescribe at the time of their admission." 7. Resolved, That the provision of the Constitution for the rendition of fu gitives from service or labor, 44 without the adoption of which the Union could not have heen formed," and the laws of 1793 and 1850, which were enacted to secure its execution, and the main features of which, being similar, bear the impress of nearly seventy years of sanction by the highest judicial authority, i-htiuld he honest I v and faithfully ob served and maintained by ?li who enjoy the benefits of our compact of Union, and (bat all acts of individuals or of IStatc Legislatures to defeat the purpose or nullify the requirements of that provision, and the laws made in pursuance of it, are hostile in character, subversive of the Constitution, and revolutionary in their effects. Uetvkn ok tiik Jews to Palestine. There are few current subjects of more absoibing interest or of deeper significance than the events nov almost daily transpiring which point to the repossession by the Jews of their own land. The tide of progress, after a lapse of centuries, may be said to have fairly turned in that direction, and the prayer long offered by that chosen hut now scattered people, that "Judah inayhe saved and Israel dwell securely, and that the lfedeemer may come fo ii\jn," is undoubtedly hastening to fulfillment '1 he Sultan of Tin key is encouraging Jewish emigration to Palestine, and is o'feiing to sell them as much land as tiiev choose to buy, and it is said, has even txpresaed his willingness to disj ose of tlie Mosque of Omar to them, w hich, it will bo uncollected, Mauds upon the \eiy silo of iho Jewish Templo on Mount Moiinh. This mosque is one of ihe Mahoinmcdnns' most celebrated shiinea, Leitig scarcely inferior in national impoitai.ee to those of Mecca and Medina.

This body assembled in Columbia last week, and its action has, by this time, become genarnlly known to the people of the country. We have not room to give anything like a full report of all that was there said and done. The action of the seceding delegates at Charleston was endorsed, and ihe platform reported at the Convention by a majority of the Committee was re affirm- ^ ed, and delegate-* sent to Richmond. So far. we think the Convention acted wisely. < It is to he regretted that the Couveu- 1 tion at Columbia was not altogether harmonious. The fact is not to be denied, that , the Convention was controlled by the uhm party, which is, by no means, the controlling party in tbis State. Headed by lion. It. Barkwkii. Rnvrr. Chairman of the delcgaj tion appointed to Richmond, who, as every intelligent mnn in the Sooth well knows, ban always been a disunionist, the State of South Carolina, so far as the opinions of a majority of Ihe people is concerned, will not he represented at Richmond. As we have seen, whilst the action of the seceding delegates at Charleston was endorsed, the Convention repudiated the delegates themselves, by sending an entire new delegation to Richmond, composed excludvelj of men who have heretofore acted with the ultra party in this State. We do not propose to go into a discussion of this matter, and pre | item, nit' reasons vmcn we llitliIf actuated I a majority of the Convention, in proscribing | tlie conservative men in South Carolina, the very men who initiated the course which they are now pursuing. The cause of the South lias Wen injured by it, and the influence which South Carolina might have exerted at Richmond, had she Wen represented by conservative men, has been considerably lessened. We are told, however, that the new dele| gates are anxious to produce harmony in the ' party in this State and at Richmond. It j they thus act, wo shall be agreeably dtsap1 nointcd. We shall oppose no obstacle to bar! mo-ising the people, North and South, upon fair and Constitutional principles. Rut we ure unwilling that the Staf? should be committed to a policy by any set of dJogatesto any convention which is not the proper one. If the Delegate# to Richmond act in aecor dnnce with tin feeling which brought about the Convention, nnd labor to secure harmony nmong the people of tl?c South upon the principles laid down tn their platform, wa shall elieerfully support I liefn. Should they. uowever, on me contrary, *o eonur.ei their movements at Richmond, as to produce din cord and distention among the f*o?thern delegate* In that body, we stand ready to ' oppose them.
