We regard them as a series of aimless abstractions, which hate " not eTen te Tnerit of being dangtrous, as those of the Virginia Legislature may "well be re garded. They are, a small party investment in the i funds," as a, resource at the next election ; but tre incline to believe that the stock will be. below-par before that day arrives, and being their chief capital, that the party trill be bankrupt. ' -w' . , The Virginia ResolQtions look tba "dissolution of the Union, as the remedy in the. event of the adop tion of the Wilmot Proviso, in forning Territorial Governments for California and New Mexico We understand this, though we highly disapproved it H means some thiig, and" that 'something is made known ; but the Resolutions of. our Legislature are without definite! object : if nullification or secession is regarded as the remedy, they should say so. We see no more reason for dissolving" the Union on account of the Wilmot Proviso in a California bill, than there was last year on account of the same Proviso in Mr. Polk's Oregon bill. Virginia elect ed Mr. Polk, and sustained, and will sustain him to the last as long as he has a crumb of patronage to bestow; and now her Democratic demagogues, with unparalleled effrontery, talk of dissolving the Union unless his Wilmot proviso poliey is abandoned. We do not mean to charge Mr. Polk. with, favoring the exclusion of slavery from the Territories, but it is undeniable, that he admits the Constitutional right of Congresa to xelude it .After signing the Wil mot Proviso, he could not raise his head in an intel ligent company and deny it such - a course would convict him of perjury ; and yet his supporters in Virginia would dissolve the Union, if the Proviso is again adopted in reference to other Territories. it will be said that a portion of California is South of the .Missouri Compromise line, and that Mr. Polk would not hate sanctioned the Protiso as applicable to that territory. But is the Missouri Compromise a part of the Constitution t If the right to exclude slavery is constitutional for one territory, is. it not for all ? It will require the stupidity of a block head, or the insincerity of a demagogue, to maintain the. contrary; and we respectfully suggest to our Democratic friends, not to attempt it, unless they would be willing to figure inxne or the other of these categories. , California and New Mexico, no more than Ore- eon, are capable of becoming Slate States. This is admitted, or rather boasted of, by Messrs. Buchan an and C ass ; and Messrs. Walxek, of Mississip pi, and President Polk concur in the same opinion "all, of alt parties and see t ions, agree that Slavery can never be extended there. It is therefore not. a practical question. The passage of the Protiso will not limit Slavery one inch, and its non-passage will not extend the institution. Why then dissolve the Union 3 We see no earthly reason for it, unless it be to gratify Mr. Calhoun, and the Virginia poli ticians of the '93 School, in tfieir dreamy abstrac tions. We believe that M r. Calhoun has long med itated a dissolution of the Union, and that many men of the same views cherish the thought, like patriots do its preservation. North Carolina should spurn and trample on the treasonable scheme, She should not only be free from guilt but above suspicion. Politicians who have no higher motives to appeal to, should remember the odium which attaches to the Hartford Convention. If they would deprecate the shame, let them avoid imitating the conduct, which deserved it. We. believe that there is no respectable portion of-ihe Northern, people, who hate any purpose of invading the Constitutional rights of the South. There are doubtless a few fanatics there, crazy e nough to conceive the idea, but their number is too insignificant Jo excite alarm or apprehension. We should as soon expect to see the Mormons or the Shakers, the dominant 'sect of Christendom) as to witness the triumph of the fanatical abolitionists o-' ver the Constitution. We will not deny, that the whole body of the Northern people, of etery, party, are opposed, strongly opposed to Slatery and slave ry extension and none are more so than; the Demo cracybut men Of .all parties disavow uny purpose of interfering, in the slightest degree, with slavery in'the States. The right to exclude it from the ter ritories they hold to be -within the power of the Constitution and in favor of their construction, they quote hot only the practice of the Government since its foundation but the opinions of the ablest Jurists and Statesmen of the Southern Country; .Mr. Jefferson, the great Apostle' of Democracy, is the author of the famous Wilmot Proviso ; and it had the sanction of Mr. Madison "also. Both of those Virginia Statesmen concurred in its expedi ency and constitutionality ; and now-Virginia poli ticians would oterthrow the Union, to prevent the applicatioa ptthe.priiiciple to California. A few Tears ago, it-was regarded by the? Democratic party as political blasphemy to differ with Mr. 'J efferson ; while now it is regarded as the touch-stone of pat riotism to discard his most cherished maxims. VeZFWe foA?0? nabob , w. a!

It appears that John Randolph, of Roanoke, pre sented a Resolution for .abolishing the Slate trade in the District of Columbia in the year 1816. It has beea found by Horace Greely in Niles. Register. The Richmond papers contend that Randolph's Res olution is limited to the sale of Slates in the Dis trict which may be brought from the adjoining States; while Got ft Resolutions extend to all sales of Slates in the District, whether brought from abroad or oth erwise. The movers of the Resolutions might hate had these different purposes in view, but we think their lauguage is identical in meaning. We subjoiu both, -and the reader may determine for himself. " March 1st 1316. Mr. Randolph mbted thesnb- joined resolution, the necessity of which, and of pro- TiaiDg a remeuj lor a pracucv su ucuiuub nuu uwui inable, making this District a depot for the slate trade of the neighboring States', and a medium for evading the laws in force by collusive sales, be im pressed by a variety of remarks ; and concluded by declaring, that if the business was declined by the I louse, he would undertake it himself; ana rerret out of their holes and corners the villains who car ried it on. After some opposition by Mr. Wngbt, and sup port by Mr. Goldborough, and being varied at the suggestion of Mr. Hopkinuon, so as to refer the subject to a select committee, instead of the committee on the District the resolution passed as follows: Resolved, That a committee be appointed to in- quire into tne existence ui an muuuiau auu nirgni traffic of slaves carried on in and" through the Dis trict 6f "Columbfa j'indto'reporthethr any, and what measures are necessary for putting a stop to the same." : - i ' On the 30th April, "Mr. Randolph, from the committee appointed some time ago to inquire into' an Illegal "traffic in slaves, carried on through the medium , of this District by persons in different States, reported various testimony collected by the committee, in the course of their intestigation of the subject; but without Other reports of facts or opinions..

The Senate, on the 11th, indefinitely postponed the elec tion. The Ransom men in the Senate carry every thing their own way. Only 34 out of the 6t Loco foco members attended the Legislative caucus on the 6th inst., at which Cass was nominated. The indefi nite postponement, by thejSenate, of the Senatorial question, is considered a great victory by the Ran som men, -and renders it pretty certain that Mr Cass' own Statobas repudiated him after the fash ion of the entire' Union.
