Toe following resolutions were adopted by the late Democratic Convention of be remembered nominated Gov. Sprague, and he was re-elected without oppositiou: . _ Resolved, That the Democracy of Rhode . Island stand to-day upon their ancient piat . form; that they are for the country and nothing less than the country—for the Un ion and the Coustitution, without conditions or bigher law reservations—for peace with . all men and all nations, when it eau be . honorably secured or preserved, and fo: war wheo peace is no longer consistent with national dignity or the preservation of the people's just rigbts—for a striet construction of the Constitution of the country, and a eacred regard, at all t.mes and onder all circumstances, by ruler as well as pee ple, by servante as well as citizens, for all its guarantees and provisiousfor the preservation of the freedom of speech and the liberty of the press—for an bovest and economical administration of the Goverument, the faitbful guardiansbip of the public cred: it, and the prompt puvishinent of treasory . Plunderers; and against all encroachments }upou State or individual rights—ayainst . the irresponsible exercise of public servants . of power not delegated in the Constitution against oppression of every description against sectioualism ju all ite aspecta— . —against underground railroads and John . Brown raids—and finally and especially, against all attempts by the Federal Gov erument tu subjugate States ur divest pow. ers or privileges which they bave hereto fore enjoyed, Resolved, That the eo-called Right of Se cession Claimed by many politiciuus aod citizens of States now in arms against our Federal Government, is inconsisteut with all government, and a denial of the funda mental principle of all Democratic Repab lice, It is just as faise to day as it was ou ly a few years or mouths ago, when it was claimed by Northern Abolitionists, and at least one Northern Legislature, and should be condemued aud opposed by ail good meu, at all times, as tending to the abroga; War. And denying the right of Secession, . Federal authority, and the attempt to over. throw, by a resort to force, the best Govbotb unreasonable and criminal, and inde . fensible violation of all the pledges which . citizeuship implies, and such an outrage . against humanity and civilization as even . the aggressions aud menaces of Nortbero . ful warfare upon Southera institutions,caanot justify or palliate, Resolved, That while this civil war continues, it is our duty and the duty of all loyal citizens to render to the Government . acheerful and earvest support; to stand by . it in the enforcement of all constitutional meatures tending to the suppressiou of urm. ed rebellion; to give its officers. so far as true to the trusts reposed iv them, the aid avd comfort which may be derived from our moral inflaence aud physical resources. And thus we extend to those citizens of our and otber States who have responded to the call of the Government for that protection which arms alone cao give, our hearty commendation aod warmest sympathies, We congratulate them apon the recent brilliant victories which their valor has achieved, and beepeak for them when their work shall bave been accomplished and their purpose consumated in the restoration of the Union, the warm gratitude of all . true patriots, Resolved, That the effort now being . made to divert this war from ite origina! purpose, as proclaimed by the President and Congress seven moaths ago—the maintenance of the Federal Constitution aud the preservation of the Union's integrity—and to turn it into a war fur the emancipation of slaves and the subjugation of the Soutb. dicator, eru States, or their return to a territorial aye: condition. is an effort against the Union, . againet the Constitution, against justice, be tion of law and the inauguration of civil . we declare that the present rebellion against . ,eromeat which the sun ever shove upon, is . 4 bles, &c.

Aud to this end, is is the duty of the Vemocratic party, not only to preserve iis distinctive organization, bat to demonstrate by bonorable and patrioie measures, both its determination and its power to withstand and render barmless the assaults of Northern sectionalists upon coustitutional liberty. Gey. PukLps.—A Ship Island correspondent notices some of the peculiarities of Geo, Phelps, the autbor of a school boy essay ov slavery, called a proclamation: General Phelps te a character, He is perfeetly democratic ia his habite, Mauy a culonel aud even captain would do well to follow bis simplicity of style, He lives in # common tent, whieh is pitched close b the sidewalk, with notaing to distingush it but a sentinel who paves before it during ouly the day time. Close by is what I eupposed for some time to bea traveling office. He does not have a bed, but takes his blanket aud sleeps ov the floor, His food is common soldier's fare One of our lieutenants heard him the otber day tell what a pice dish of rice and moiasses he had for his tupper the uight before. He dresses with great plainvess, bas but one servant, and does not even keep a borse, He takes only his monthly pay from the Goveroment, and all bis allowances he torus into the treasury, He says that extravagance is rulning the Government, and be will got be a party to it, Every officer be bolds vo a strict account, especially the quartermasters. No oue can do anything that be does not bave an oversight of. He has made the Zouaves doff their showy trappings and don the regulation uniform, He puts the officers through in great shape, and does vot hesitale to blow them up on parade when they deserve it, To the men he is very kind and lenient, and is mach beloved by them all. He has a rich Yankee drawl in bis voice which it makes one laugh to hear, This model general honored me with a brief speech on parade the otherday, to wit: “Sergeant, turn about and stand perfectly Don’t budge an inch.” Starvation iv Vinainuu.—A Baltimore . Abolitivniets, during thirty years of venge. dispatch of May 234, feys, Surgical and Mechanical Dentists. . Two intelligent citizens from Petersburg who fled that city to avoid the conseription, arrived at Fortress Monroe to-day and lefi immediately tor McClellan’s headquarters, . for whom they have some iuformatiog which has not beea made public, They rep resent the condition of affairs at Petersburg vud the surrouuding country in a most deplorable condition, The suffering of the people seem almost beyond endurance The scarcity of provisens is so great that everything is eeized for the army, and even the soldiers have been ou half rations for « week, with no prospect of even this supply continuing any great length of time. They represent the rebel army, or a great por. tion of it, demoralized and dispirited te such an extent that they are only held to gether by the most rigorous appliances of military law. The work of conscriptios, however, is progressing. The roads te Richmood are thronged with unarmed men, old and young, being driven along under strong armed guards, They represent that no people in modern times have euffered more than tbe people of Virginia are now suffering, every housebold being in mouraing, and goud prospect of approaching fam ine. SUFFERING IN InELAND.—The Galway Viaspeaking of the prevailing distress, “That there is nowa wite spread famine no one will be found audacious enough to deny, From every part of the country the ory reaches us that a sad ca yrs ges There is Ho gainwaying the fact. Itis fearful to contemplate the sad ordeal that ie before our poor people, If they had only to com tend against the failure of the potato crop their case would be melancholy enough, but the want of fael adds considerably to thei: hardships.’’ The Galway Express adds to the above: “The destitation throughout and Southwest of Ireland seems to of the most melancholy description ia ant of emplo ment, want of food, and want of fuel have left the population entirely dependent upos physical sympathy.” Wang ' 4 H, or get has Sixteenth Distric:, cane en a t TET eT a Cea eee
