# Conspectus of the History of Political Parties and the Federal Government/1860 Democratic Party Platform (Breckinridge)

Democratic (Breckinridge) Platform, Charleston and Baltimore.
Resolved, That the platform adopted by the Democratic party at Cincinnati be affirmed, with following explanatory resolutions:
1. That the government, of a territory, organized by an act of Congress, is provisional and temporary; and, during its existence, all citizens of the United States have an equal right to settle, with their property, in the territory, without their rights, either of person or property, being destroyed or impaired by congressional or territorial legislation.
2. That it is the duty of the Federal government, in all its departments, to protect, when necessary, the rights of persons and property in the territories, and wherever else its constitutional authority extends.
3. That when the settlers in a territory having an adequate population form a state constitution in pursuance of law, the right of sovereignty commences, and, being consummated by admission into the Union, they stand on an equal footing with the people of other states, and the state thus organized ought to be admitted into the Federal Union, whether its constitution prohibits or recognizes the institution of slavery.
4. That the Democratic party are in favor of the acquisition of the island of Cuba, on such terms as shall be honorable to ourselves and just to Spain, at the earliest practicable moment.
5. That the enactments of state legislatures to defeat the faithful execution of the Fugitive Slave Law are hostile in character, subversive of the constitution, and revolutionary in their effect.
6. That the Democracy of the United States recognize it as the imperative duty of this government to protect the naturalized citizen in all his rights, whether at home or in foreign lands, to the same extent as its native-born citizens.
Whereas, One of the greatest necessities of the age, in a political, commercial, postal, and military point of view, is a speedy communication between the Pacific and Atlantic coasts; therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Democratic party do hereby pledge themselves to use every means in their power to secure the passage of some bill, to the extent of the constitutional authority of Congress, for the construction of a Pacific railroad from the Mississippi liver to the Pacific ocean, at the earliest practicable moment.
# Conspectus of the History of Political Parties and the Federal Government/1872 Democratic Party (Straight-Out) Platform

Democratic (Straight-Out) Platform, Louisville, Ky., Sept. 3.
Whereas, A frequent recurrence to first principles and eternal vigilance against abuses are the wisest provisions for liberty, which is the source of progress, and fidelity to our constitutional system is the only protection for either: therefore,
Resolved, That the original basis of our whole political structure is consent in every part thereof. The people of each state voluntarily created their state, and the states voluntarily ​formed the Union; and each state provided by its written constitution for everything a state could do for the protection of life, liberty, and property within it; and each state, jointly with the others, provided a federal union for foreign and inter-state relations.
Resolved, That all governmental powers, whether state or federal, are trust powers coming from the people of each state, and that they are limited to the written letter of the constitution and the laws passed in pursuance of it; which powers must be exercised in the utmost good faith, the constitution itself stating in what manner they may be altered and amended.
Resolved, That the interests of labor and capital should not be permitted to conflict, but should be harmonized by judicious legislation. While such a conflict continues, labor, which is the parent of wealth, is entitled to paramount consideration.
Resolved, That we proclaim to the world that principle is to be preferred to power; that the Democratic party is held together by the cohesion of time-honored principles, which they will never surrender in exchange for all the offices which Presidents can confer. The pangs of the minorities are doubtless excruciating; but we welcome an eternal minority, under the banner inscribed with our principles, rather than an almighty and everlasting majority, purchased by their abandonment.
Resolved, That, having been betrayed at Baltimore into a false creed and a false leadership by the convention, we repudiate both, and appeal to the people to approve our platform, and to rally to the polls and support the true platform and the candidates who embody it.
# Conspectus of the History of Political Parties and the Federal Government/1860 Constitutional Union Party Platform

Constitutional Union Platform, Baltimore, May 9.
Whereas, Experience has demonstrated that platforms adopted by the partisan conventions of the country have had the effect to mislead and deceive the people, and at the same time to widen the political divisions of the country, by the creation and encouragement of geographical and sectional parties; therefore,
Resolved, That it is both the part of patriotism and of duty to recognize no political principles other than The Constitution of the Country, the Union of the States, and the Enforcement of the Laws; and that as representatives of the Constitutional Union men of the country, in national convention assembled, we hereby pledge ourselves to maintain, protect, and defend, separately and unitedly, these great principles of public liberty and national safety against all enemies at home and abroad, believing that thereby peace may once more be restored to the country, the rights of the people and of the states re-established, and the government again placed in that condition of justice, fraternity, and equality, which, under the example and constitution of our fathers, has solemnly bound every citizen of the United States to maintain a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.
# Conspectus of the History of Political Parties and the Federal Government/1860 Democratic Party Platform

Democratic (Douglas) Platform, Charleston, April 23, and Baltimore, June 18.
1. Resolved, That we, the Democracy of the Union, in convention assembled, hereby declare our affirmance of the resolutions unanimously adopted and declared as a platform of principles by the Democratic convention at Cincinnati, in the year 1856, believing that democratic principles are unchangeable in their nature when applied to the same subject-matters; and we recommend, as the only further resolutions, the following:
Inasmuch as differences of opinion exist in the Democratic party as to the nature and extent of the powers of a territorial legislature, and as to the powers and duties of Congress, under the constitution of the United States, over the institution of slavery within the territories:
2. Resolved, That the Democratic party will abide by the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States on the questions of constitutional law.
3. Resolved, That it is the duty of the United States to afford ample and complete protection to all its citizens, whether at home or abroad, and whether native or foreign.
4. Resolved, That one of the necessities of the age, in a military, commercial, and postal point of view, is speedy communication between the Atlantic and Pacific states; and the Democratic party pledge such constitutional government aid as will insure the construction of a railroad to the Pacific coast at the earliest practicable period.
5. Resolved, That the Democratic party are in favor of the acquisition of the island of Cuba, on such terms as shall be honorable to ourselves and just to Spain.
6. Resolved, That the enactments of state legislatures to defeat the faithful execution of the Fugitive Slave Law are hostile in character, subversive of the constitution, and revolutionary in their effect.
7. Resolved, That it is in accordance with the true interpretation of the Cincinnati platform, that, during the existence of the territorial governments, the measure of restriction, ​whatever it may be, imposed by the federal constitution on the power of the territorial legislature over the subject of domestic relations, as the same has been, or shall hereafter be, finally determined by the Supreme Court of the United States, shall be respected by all good citizens, and enforced with promptness and fidelity by every branch of the general government.
# Conspectus of the History of Political Parties and the Federal Government/1864 Radical Party Platform

Radical Platform, Cleveland, May 31.
1. That the Federal Union shall be preserved.
2. That the constitution and laws of the United States must be observed and obeyed.
3. That the Rebellion must be suppressed by force of arms, and without compromise.
4. That the rights of free speech, free press, and the habeas corpus be held inviolate, save in districts where martial law has been proclaimed.
5. That the Rebellion has destroyed slavery; and the federal constitution should be so amended as to prohibit its re-establishment, and to secure to all men absolute equality before the law.
6. That integrity and economy are demanded, at all times, in the administration of the government, and that in time of war the want of them is criminal.
7. That the right of asylum, except for crime and subject to law, is a recognized principle of American liberty; and that any violation of it can not be overlooked, and must not go unrebuked.
8. That the national policy known as the “Monroe Doctrine” has become a recognized principle; and that the establishment of an anti-republican government on this continent by any foreign power can not be tolerated.
9. That the gratitude and support of the nation are due to the faithful soldiers and the earnest leaders of the Union army and navy, for their heroic achievements and deathless valor in defense of our imperiled country and of civil liberty.
10. That the one-term policy for the presidency, adopted by the people, is strengthened by the force of the existing crisis, and should be maintained by constitutional amendment.
11. That the constitution should be so amended that the President and Vice-President shall be elected by a direct vote of the people.
12. That the question of the reconstruction of the rebellious states belongs to the people, through their representatives in Congress, and not to the Executive.
13. That the confiscation of the lands of the rebels, and their distribution among the soldiers and actual settlers, is a measure of justice.
# Day, a Pastoral (1814)/The Stubborn Dame

​THE STUBBORN DAME.
There was a little stubborn dame
Whom no authority could tame,
Restive by long indulgence grown,
No will she minded but her own:
At trifles oft she'd scold and fret,
Then in a corner take a seat,
And sourly moping all the day,
Disdain alike to work or play.
Papa all softer arts had try'd,
And sharper remedies apply'd;
But both were vain, for every coures
He took still made her worse and worse.
'Tis strange to think how female wit
So oft should make a lucky hit
When man with all his high pretence
To deeper judgment, sounder sense ​Will err, and measures false pursue.
'Tis very strange, I own, but true.
Mamma observ'd the rising lass
By stealth retiring to the glass,
To practise little airs unseen,
In the true genius of thirteen:
On this a deep design she laid
To tame the humour of the maid:
Contriving, like a prudent mother,
To make one folly cure another.
Upon the wall against the seat
Which Jessy us'd for her retreat,
Whene'er by accident offended,
A looking-glass was straight suspended,
That it might shew her how deform'd
She look'd, and frightful when she stormed,
And warn her, as she priz'd her beauty,
To bend her humour to her duty: ​All this the looking-glass achiev'd,
Its threats were minded and believ'd.
 The maid who spurn'd at all advice,
Grew tame and gentle in a trice;
So when all other means had fail'd,
The silent monitor prevailed.
 Thus, fable to the human kind
Presents an image of the mind;
It is a mirror, where we spy
At large our own deformity,
And learn of course, those faults to mend,
Which but to mention would offend.
FINIS.

# Day, a Pastoral (1814)/Noon

NOON.
Fervid on the glitt'ring flood,
 Now the noon-tide radiance glow
Dropping o'er its infant bud,
 Not a dew-drop's left the rose.
By the brook the shepherd dines;
 From the fierce meridian heat
Shelter'd by the branching pines,
 Pendant o'er his grassy seat.
Now the flock forsakes the glade,
 Where uncheck'd the sun-beams fall;
Sure to find a pleasing shade
 By the ivy'd abbey wall.
Echo in her airy round,
 O'er the river, rock, and hill;
Cannot catch a single sound
 Save the clack of yonder mill.
Cattle court the zephyrs bland,
 Where the streamlet wanders cool;
Or with languid silence stand
 Midway in the marshy pool.
But from mountain, dell, or stream,
 Not a flutt'ring zephyr springs;
Fearful lest the noon-tide beam
 Scorch its soft, its silken wings.
Not a leaf has leave to stir,
 Nature's lull'd serene, and still!
Quiet o'er the shepherd's cur,
 Sleeping on the heath-clad hill.
Languid is the landscape round,
 Till the fresh descending shower,
Grateful to the thirsty ground,
 Raises every fainting flower.
Now the hill, the hedge, is green.
 Now the warbler's throat's in tune!
Blithsome is the verdant scene,
 Brighten'd by the beams of noon.

# Day, a Pastoral (1814)/Evening

EVENING.
O'er the heath the heifer strays
 Free—(the furrow'd task is done).
Now the village windows blaze,
 Burnish'd by the setting sun.
Now he hides behind the hill,
 Sinking from a golden sky:
Can the pencil's mimic skill
 Copy the refulgent dye?
Trudging as the ploughmen go,
 (To the smoking hamlet bound)
Giant-like their shadows grow,
 Lengthen'd o'er the level ground.
Where the rising forest spreads
 Shelter for the lordly dome,
To their high-built airy beds,
 See the rooks returning home!
As the lark with varied tune,
 Carols to the ev'ning loud,
Mark the mild resplendent moon,
 Breaking thro' a parted cloud!
Now the hermit owlet peeps
 From the barn or twisted brake;
And the blue mist slowly creeps
 Curling on the silver lake.
As the trout in speckled pride,
 Playful from its bosom springs,
To the banks a ruffled tide
 Verges in successive rings.
Tripping thro' the silken grass,
 O'er the path-divided dale,
Mark the rose-complexion'd lass,
 With her weil-pois'd milking pail.
Linnets with unnumber'd notes,
 And the cuckoo bird with two,
Tuning sweet their mellow throats,
 Bid the setting sun adieu.

MORNING.
DAY,
A PASTORAL.
In the barn the tenant cock,
 Close to partlet perch'd on high,
Briskly crows, (the shepherd's clock!)
 Jocund that the morning's nigh.
Swiftly from the mountain's brow,
 Shadows, nurs'd by Night, retire,
And the peeping sun-beam, now,
 Paints with gold the village spire.
Philomel forsakes the thorn,
 Plaintive where she prates at night;
And the lark, to meet the morn,
 Soars beyond the shepherd's sight.
From the low-roof'd cottage ridge
 See the chatt'ring swallow spring;
Darting thro' the one-arch'd bridge,
 Quick she dips her dappled wing.
Now the pine-tree's waving top
 Gently greets the morning gale!
Kidlings, now, begin to crop
 Daisies in the dewy vale.
From the balmy sweets, uncloy'd,
 (Restless till her task be done)
Now the busy bee's employ'd
 Sipping dew before the sun.
Trickling thro' the crevic'd rock,
 Where the limpid stream distils,
Sweet refreshment waits the flock
 When 'tis sun-drove from the hills.
Colin for the promis'd corn,
 (Ere the harvest hopes are ripe)
Anxious hears the huntsman's horn,
 Boldly sounding, drown his pipe.
Sweet, O sweet, the warbling throng
 On the white emblossom'd spray!
Nature's universal song
 Echoes to the rising day.

Sidney Lanier composed this poem in Baltimore, Maryland in 1881, just a few days before he passed away. In the volume of his poems published posthumously and edited by his wife, this poem was characterized as an “unrevised pencilling.”

​APISA'ON (Ἀπισάων). Two mythical personages of this name occur in the Iliad, xi. 578, and xvii. 348. [L. S.]
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Apis 2.

​Apis, the son of Phoroneus, is said, after his death, to have been worshipped as a god, under the name of Serapis (Σάραπις); and this statement shews that Egyptian mythuses are mixed up with the story of Apis. This confusion is still more manifest in the tradition, that Apis gave his kingdom of Argos to his brother, and went to Egypt, where he reigned for several years afterwards. (Euseb. Chron. n. 271; Augustin, de Civ. Dei, xviii, 5.) Apis is spoken of as one of the earliest lawgivers among the Greeks. (Theodoret. Graec. Affect. Cur. vol. iv. p. 927, ed. Schulz.)
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Apis 4.

​Besides the third Apis, the son of Jason, mentioned above, there is a fourth, a son of Asclepius, mentioned by Aeschylus. (Suppl. 262.) [L. S.]
