Tatnail, from Cuba, who contradicts several reports and rumors of un exciting character. All the prisoners had been landed at Havana, and the Governor pro mised lo treatthem well, until a negotiation with the United States should determine their desti nation ; and it was expected they would be re turned to the U. States for trial. Evidence had been collected from those of the expedition who landed at Key West, that the prisoners taken had xot betn true to the expedition, and had abandoned it.

The Convention met according to ad journment. Col Biggs, from the Committee appoint ed to prepare Resolutions and other matter for the consideration of the Convention, reported as follows : Resolved by this Convention, That our confidence in our principles as a party, is not only undiminished, but strengthened ; and that we ace encouraged by past events as well as by the prospects of the future, still to adhere to those principles and to press them on the attention and considera tion of the people generally, as best calcu lated to carry out the view3 of the found ers of our liberties, and secure the rights of man. 2. Resolved, Tl)t after months of experi ence, we feel, constrained to disapprove, in the most decided terms, of the Admin istration of Gen. Taylor ; that we regard the1 President himself at having failed m the discharge of his high functions, by com initti ug them to his Cabinet course whoi- and d eg ra the Compromise, Compromise, was mutual concession though the South ly unprecedented ; thafrby his course oo the Slavery question he "has contributed and is now contributing, as Mr Clay him self has shown, to produce discord and agitationin the country instead of concord & harmony j and that his course, from first to last, has realized the predictions of evil destined to flow from it, which were made in the campaign by the Democratic party. 3. Resolved, That the Union of these States as formed by our forefathers, is dearer to us than every thing else, besides our vital interests andhonor ; that we will cherish it and sland by it, so long as it realizes in its operations the design of those who founded it as equal p but that, while we thus yield to none in oar attach ment to it, we are still determined, hap pen what may, to resist all palpable vio lations ot the Constitution, and all attempts to wield this .Government by a mere sec tional .majority, to the injury, datton of the Southern oeonle. And Whereas, There are questions of an exciting and agitating character, now pending before the Congress of the United States, growing out of the long-continued and oft-repeated aggressions of the North upon Southern rights ; and whereas, the agtiation of these questions is fraught with imminent peril to the Union of these States ; and whereas, it is greatly to be desired by every lover of his country, that an amicable settlement of all them should be made, so that while the honor anil dig nity of the South are preserved, peace and harmony should be restored to the whole Confederacy ; therefore 4. Resolved, That in cummou with a large portion of the people of this State and of the South, ve.deire the full and per fect settlement of all the agitating ques tions which now distract theBcountry ; we desire their settlement upon a basis of equal right and justice to all and every ! portion of the Union. , 5. Resolved, That the 'peculiar plan" originated and persisted in by the Presi dent and his Cabiuet, will not have the effect of promoting harmony and concord, but leaves the Territorial questions un settled, the door of agitation wide open. aud the Union still involved in excitement and peril. 6- Resolved, That this continued per sistence of President Taylor and his Ca binet in his peculiar plan," is one out of Otany violations of his pledge given before his" election is '-aHirecf and unwarranted interference with and an attempt to fore stall the action of Congress j and is not in accordance with the proper duty of an American Executive. 7. Resolved, That known as the Missouri adopted in a spirit of and conciliation ; and feels that it detracts from her Constitution al rights, yet for love of the Union, this Convention is willing to abide by it, and would cheerfully see all the distract ing questions settled on the basis. 8. Resolved, That an amendment to the Constitution of this State ought to be made, abolishing the land qualification for electors of Senators; and that the people ought to be permitted to elect the Judges for a term of years, 9. Resolved, That we have undiminish ed confidence in the ability, integrity, and sound principles of the Hon. David S. Reid, of the county of Rockingham j that his self-sacrifice and devotion to the cause in the canvass of 1848, deserves our highest praise and heartiest thanks and we hereby again unanimously recommend him to the people as a proper candidate for the office of Governor of North Caroli na at the ensuing election. The Resolutions were read one by one, and unanimously adopted amid loud and prolonged applause. Gen. Saunders was then called upon from all parts of the House, and he came forward and addressed the Convention for more than an hour in a must able, af fective, and eloquent manner. He con cluded by offering the following Resolu tion, which was unanimously adopted : Resolved, as the opinion of this Con vention, That the Slavery question is one of principle, and not of party; that the rights ot the South are to be maintained, and the Constitution and the Union of the States preserved ; and in the language of MrJetterson, if there beany amongst us who would wish to dissolve this Union, or to change its Republican forms, let them stand as monuments of the safety with which error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left free to combat it." The Hon. Green W. Caldwell was called on and spoke briefly, expressing his cordial approval of the Resolutions and the action of the Convention. On motion it was resolved, that the Pesiding officers of this Convention com municate to the Hon. David S. Reid his unanimous nomination for the office of Governor, and express to him in behalf of all the members of this body their request that he accept said nomination. On motion of Mr Shepherd, of Cumber land, it was ordered that the usual Demo cratic State Committee be appointed, two irom eacn Congressional District, upon the suggestion of names by the Delegates from the respective Districts. Maj. William J. Clarke, in response to a rail, addressed the Convention in a for cible and eloquent manner; after which Mr Shepard, of Wake, was called out, but declined to speak on account of a cold and sore throat. : - -.. Mr McRta was then called for, and VOX. 11 -JVC 591.

In response to a call, Mr Shepherd, of Cumberland, addressed the Convention briefly, but able and effectively. On motion of Mr Dick, the thanks of the Convention were unanimously tender ed to Gen. Saunders, for the verv able j and eloquent Speech with which he had tavoreu this body. The following Resolution, introduced by Gen. Saunders, was unanimously adopted: Resolved, That the thanks of this Con vention are due and are 'hereby; tendered to the President, Vice Presidents, and Se cretaries of the Convention for their able and faithful discharge of duty ; and also to the Committee on Resolutions for the admirable and very satisfactory manner in winch they have performed the task signed them. as- Tne President? of the Convention then rose, and spoke in animating and eloquent terms of the prospects of the nartv. and of confidence with which they would enter j x upon me penning campaign. He paid a high compliment to Col. Reid. the nomi nee of the Democracy, and said he could not resist this call, so unauimouslv and so heartily made upon him. r Col. Biggs, in rising to move an ad journment sine- die, took occasion to say to those in the opposite party, who count ed on divisions among the Democrats, that they would be disappointed ; that the De mocrats, in all portions of the State, would rally as one man to the support of Col.

The United States Mail Steamer Isabel, Captain Rollins, arrived from Havana yesterday morning, with her accustomed punctuality. Malting 63 hours from port to port, including the stoppages at Key West and Savannah. Mie brings 141 passengers. v- By the Isabel we have our files of papers and correspondence to the 8th inst. ex tracts from which will be found annexed. The papers are mainly occupied with details connected with the late invasion of the Island. Much excitement still prevails through out the Island, and the feelings of Spaniards and the Government Officials run strong against Americans and the American Gov ernment. The officers, crews, and passengers of the American vessels still remain in close confinement. Efforts have been made by torture to extort confessions from the captains of the Georgian and Susan Loud,' but in vain. They declared repeatedly that they regularly cleared from New Or leans for Chagres, as was confirmed by their papers, thev had no knowledge of the character or objects of their passengers ieiitre-.of the city of Havana without seri ous resistance. Annexed is our Havana correspondence: Correspondence of the Merctu-y. Havana, June 6, 1850. The steamer Saranac, Commander TAt nall, left here on the COth u!t. with des patches for the Government at Washing ton, informing it of -the state of affairs, and forsooth we hear of him at Key West on the 3d inst giving a ball, aud reciprocating the attentions of the citizens there. Meanwhile his countrymen, immured in a Spanish prison, denied all communication with their friends shut out from the light of Heaven, may await the appearance of the delivering angel borne on the wings of a Spanish bullet. And we, who for a little are allowed an intercourse with our fellow beings, are coolly comforted by Judges Maivin and Douglas, of the aforesaid Key West, with the assurance that the Spanish Government has not only right to confis cate our property captured on the great ighway ot nations, but that it can, at its j aovereigh pleasure capture, imprison, try, ' condemn, and execute American citizens i who never thought of, or intended corning to the Island ot Cuba; and even that it would have been perfectly justified in land ing an armed force on American soil, and capturing and executing on the spot the pirates of the Creole. Not I alone, but every one of my fellow-countrymen here, lias, with bursting heart, exclaimed: Would to God I were an Englishman!' While I am writing these lines the prize park Georgiana and bark Susan Loud are boldly running into port, showing no col ors, even while under the guns of the sloops of war Albany and Gennantown, which have this morning te-appeared off our har bor. How their doughty commanders could brook this breach of Naval etiquette, I cannot conceive. The steamer Saranac has also come in, and takes no notice whatever of the prizes. It is to be hoped the Government at Washington will take other views of these captures and those held by the Key West Cabinet. Respectfully yours, AMERICAN. Juhe 8, 1850. It may be interesting to your readers to learn that we are daily looking for another iuvasion. Yesterday the Schooner Fairy arrived here from New Orleans,,and brings a report that the steamer Fanny was to leave that city on the 1st inst. with 700 men for Cuba." The Government are on the qui vivt, and troops are held in readi ness to move at a moment's warning. Last night the Steamer Pizarro left our port with 500 men on board. Her desti nation is lit t known. General Falqueras, the late Governor of Matanzas, has bee a suspended, and is to be Court Maitialed, for not catching Lo pez at Cardenas. Yours, A. Additional netcsjrom Havana. The Captain of the Ohio, was arrested by a party of soldier f although he had a passport) and paraded about the streets some time. when a number of them went on board of that vessel, and that they were proceeding on their couse to Chagres when thev were captured by the Spanish steamer. The Captains were then suspended in the air by cords attached to their thumbs, but despite the torture, they persisted in their statements. Among the piisoners was a young la wyer from one of the Western States, whose symptoms of trepidation gave expectation that by working on his tears confession:? might be obtained that would tend to crim inate his companions. A halter was ac cordingly placed round his neck, and can non balls attached tojhis feet, and with the threat of immediate death hanging over him, under promise of pardon for himself and for some ot his companions whom he named, he made certain disclosures upon which the authorities based their future proceedings. The American Consul was peremptorily refused all access to or communication with the prisoners. Tojgive a color, how. ever, to the proceedings of the Court, the presence of the British Consul was invited. A strong disposition was manifested to dispose of the two American captains by a summary execution; but against this course the British Consul warmly remonstrated, and warned them that 'such a step would inevitably involve them in serious difficul ties with the American Government. In consequence ot these remonstrances the decision of the Court upon their case was postponed. The chief Engineer of the Matanxas and Savanillo Railroad died suddenly at Ha vana, and it is supposed by poison, but there is no doubt that his death was occa sioned by over excitement and perplexity consequent upon the invasion at Cardenas. We have been informed by highly intel ligent gentlemen that the excitement, and terror at Matanzas, Havana, ami through out the island, upon the spread of the in telligence of the landing at Cardenas, was extreme, and in many instances- the .au thorities seemed perfectly paralyzed. It is their opinion -that if a-thousand brave men, well appointed, and. well officered had pushed on promptly from-Cardenas, they could have placed themselves to Xhz Coffee for Wkak Stomachs. A cor respondent sends the following, being the until the steamer Creole came alongside, j result of experience.: Those who are not able to bear much liquid should adopt the following method : P'ace a quarter of a pound of ground coffee in a jug, pour a pint of cold spring water thereon, and let a iand twe-nry-four hours ; then strain off the c kiir extract, which preserve in a well coiked botile. When you , with for a cup vl coffee, boil lialf a-pint of milk, to vvhich add a table-spoonful of the cold ex tract. f t Will have the same effect as three cups made in the ordinary way, and poscss a delightful flavor. . . A rain in Murcia, Spain, has excited mure attention than a revolution would have done, probably. After u drought of five years, this hapless province was visit ed on the 8tii of May, by a copious rain.. It was curious to see the young children, who had nevei seen it rain in their lives, evince as much alarm as if a frightful ac cident had happened. Holding- a1Crpse for Debt -A young man, a stranger, died at a boarding house in New York, the other day, and the boarders contributed sufficient money to bury him. The Tribune says : The man of the house sent for the coffin, at his own request, and got one worth 4 or S3, for which he charged 8 1 2. The night before the funeral he locked up the body, refusing to let the friends see it, and w hen the boarders and others assem bled at 2 o'clock, the next day, to perform the rites of burial, the hearse being at the door, he flatly refused to unlock the door, say ing that if the S5 which the de ceased owed him was not paid, he would send the body to' Potter's Field. The young man. shocked at the atrocious con duct of this vain pyre, borrowed the money, redeemed the dead body of the unfortunate from his clutches, and buried it at Wil-liamsburgh- ...... Indolent people easily become .sly and shifting; their natural gentleness serves to hide even a fit of rage; for it is by our ha bitual mannerpiat.an accidental change of feeling may be best concealed.
