The editor of the State Sentinel says the Democrat
c party were never in favor Of the Wimot Proviso.
Just what have said for the last four years-Rtch-
mOnd Palladium.
How dare you say any thing on the subject; belong
ng as you do, to party which, at the Philadelphia
slaughter House. Convention, when the Wilmot
Proviso proposed, kicked it under the table Has
the Wing party yet any opinion, with regard TO the
Wilmot Proviso! We defy this pretended Wi!mot
PrOvso editor TO show it. We have not only said,
but have known for the last four years. that the Wing
party had no principles. The President, by monaco
tion has practically defeated the proviso, and friend
Holloway is bound TO say amen to it,

Democratic Platform on Slavery.

"ReSOlCed, That Congress has power, under the
Constitution interfere with control the domestic
institutions Of the several States and that such States
the sole and proper judges Of every thing apper
tanning to their own affairs, not prohibited by the
CONSTITUTIONS; that all efforts of the abotiOnists or
others, made To induce Congress 10 interfere with the
question of slavery, take incipent steps
latIon thereto, calculated to lead TO the most
alarming and dangerous consequences, and that all
such efforts have inevitable tendency to diminish
the happiness Of the people, and endanger the sabi-
ty and permanency Of the Union, and ought not to
be countennncei by any friend Of political iDsti-
tuti0ns."
The above resolution was adopted by the National
Democratic Convention, which nominated Mr.. Van
Buren. II there fully endorsed by the democracy,
both north and south. Ii re-adopted by the
Democratic Conventions in 1874 and '45, and the
only resolution, that subject, ever adopted by
National Democratic Convention; and every demo-
who voted for Van Buren,, Polk or Cass endorsed
its sentiments by his 1t is our political land
mark tsai question: and if we steer by it, we shall
at least have division among ourselves. That the
wings should divide and split into flinders, is mat
not TO be wondered at. There has never been
unity Of sentiment enough among them to adopt any
resolution They have succeeded. as Col. Benton
says, by riding on both sides Of the sapling.
We publish the resolution at this time, when clouds
upon the political horizon. when the stars are
obscured BY the mists Of prejudice and educaiion as
a sort Of beacon light which will keep US of the
rocks and breakers. II was originally drawn up BY
that pure patriot and enlightened statesman. Sa.

RANDOLPH, Jay AND BLAcKFoRD.-Tbe Democratic
Convention Of the counties of Randolph, Jay and
Backford, has nominated the Hon. Jeremiah Smith
as candidate for Senatorial Delegate. The Win
chester Patriot says
.'As to Judge Smiths qualifications we have not
word to say, he is man of respectable talent, and
untIrng industry, but he is radical democrat. and
we are radically whig, and therefore it is hardly
likely that shall give support to the Judge"
We hope our Hancock county friends will read the
abuve. as well as the Banner man IN Jefferson who
has been copying admonirons to Democrats. He
will find the wings are sufficiently proscriptive, so
far, least, the leaders concerned. without
his everlasting promptings. The people, however,
wish Democratic Constitution. and many men, still
voting with the wing party, when they seriously
slider that they are, in this instance, acting for pos
teri,y. will pause before they reject well qualified
democrat, under the party drill. We advise our
friends to vote full ticket, because want good
Democratic Constitution; and we believe the people
of Indiana, ut the August election, will say amen to
our advice. The only objection it will be perceived
the Patriot has TO Judge Smith Isl that he is radi-
cal Democrat. We like the Judge all the better for
this quahcation-for his radicalism consists in
full belief of the ability of the people TO govern
themselves, without Dictator We set the Judge
down as member of the Convention.

The Tariff.
XAVIER.

The wings of Pennsylvania who at leust half
century behind the Oge, are still camorng for pro-
lection. They must have increased and specific
duty on iron-H duty levied not to produce revenue
from The importation of the foreign article, but to
it high, that its importation must necessarily
be decreased, and thereby give to the manufacturer
of the domestic article, wider market and higher
price. That owing to variety Of causes, among
which may be the present tariff the roa interest is
somewhat depressed, is not to be denied TO make
up this deficiency in the profits Of the iron master
is the farmer, and indeed all other trades profess
ons TO be taxed! This is the practical effect Of the
operation of high duties. The formers wheat crop
in the West, was last year blighied with the
Who made good his losses! Where there is one
taxpayer in the United States. engaged in the
facture Of iron, there nine hundred aud ninety
nine engaged in other avocations Should this last
named class all be taxed for the benefit of the
The same argument will apply TO The salt, sugar,
cotton ard wooden ma nufacurng interest that claim
protection. In giving protection to these various in
terests. the great agricultural branch of industry ia
the west, is taxed. and continually taxed, without
any cures pon6ing benefits. If the Pennsylvania
cannot compete with the foreign manufacturer, let
him come to the West and cultivate our broad acres
of fertile land. We will give him hearty welcome;
he shall have home, and shall be placed on an
equal footing with u.s. but let him not ask us TO put
money in his purse because the price Of iron is low.
Ii is no great injury TO farmers who buy this
tcle Of necessity reduced price. Our rail road
companies do not complain, because they buy the
English iron at 40 dollars ton, when, undor The old
high protection system, they would have had pay

We invite the attention of the Indiana State Jour
nal Lafayette Journal aud several other wing prints
of kindred character, to the following article from
the Grant county 'Whig Thermometer" The editors
must certainly blush fnr their own when they
witness the manliness Of the Thermometer towards
political opponents Hear the editor and see if you
cannot profit by good example:
at viii be recollected that wrote article in
last weeks paper, in which il was shown that Mr..
Whitcombs course and votes in the Senate were not
in strict accordance with the instructions given him
by The Legislature nor with his former pledges to
his constituents. At this time ii is pleasure to
to be able say, since having examined some of the
recent votes in the Senate, that not only Mr.. Whit
comb but other Senator, Mr.. Bright. has given
evidence of willingness to obey the instructions OF
the Legislature. Ga motion declaring that the
Mexican laws prohibiting slavery shall be and remain
in force in the Territories until altered repealed
by Congress-, we find the names of Whltcomh and
Bright recorded in the affirmative with Messrs. Chase,
Hale and Seward"

California.

We have received the San Francisco Alta Califor-
MIA of the l1th of May, which is filled with an ac-
count of the fire which took place in that city on the
4th of the month. The editor says
If take into consideration the great extent of
property destroyed, covering more than three
times large that of the December fire. we do not
think the estimated loss of tour millions Of dollars is
exaggerated"
The effects of the confagration, is said, will fall
heavily upon the city at the present time. and proba
bly, produce a temporary depression in business. A
reward of $4,000 offered by tie Mayor for the
detection of tine incendares Building had already
commenced in the burnt district and progressing

fornia was consumed but the printing materials saved.
