1t, and defeating the radical Democrats of the
North, together with the States Rights Demo-
Gratis of the South, was entirely omitted ! A
part of the omitted paragraphs will show the
reason of the omission.
"There is at this moment a most singular
coalition formed between the Abolltlonists and
Dsunionists to control that Convention. No
sensible man can close his eyes to the fact.
Van Buren,, Blair, Benton, and their Free Soil
coadjutors, are marshalling their forces at the
North. Rhett, Commander, Mcdonald, and
Qultman, are gathering together the scattered
members of the coffin regiments OF the South.
These men, defeated in their late reasonable
schemes, are now about to combine for the pur-
pose OF substituting and controlling the National
democracy. They lOiU accomplish ther purpose,
TOO, unless defeated by a prompt movement on
The part OF the Union men of the South Here
IN our very midst they are changing their names

associate with what, few months since, they
termed The radical, rotten Democracy Of the

Kossuth at st. Louis.

Kossuth while at ST. Louis delivered power
full Speech and, as showing up one of the chief
sources of the opposition and calumny with
which he has had to contend in this country,
certainly very remarkable one. In New York,
Philadelphia, and Washington, he experimental
hostility which evidently proceeds from sources
not originating in this country. This increased
as he moved west, and seemed to have come to
a head in st. Louis, In this speech, being him
self well aware of the source of these insiduous
attacks and finding himself at one of the chief
fountain heads in the United States, the seat Of
Jesuit college and Catholic priesthood, he re-
solved to meet his enemies face to face and ex-
pose their baseness to the world; and his blows
fell with witherng effect Oh the heads OF thai
detestable order, which, though nomlnaly abo
ished in Europe, still, both there and here, vlru
ally exists in all its dangerous power, the ser
want of despotism and the secret controller OF the
Catholic priesthood, and, through them, the whole
catholic church. Kossuth openly charges this
order as being the instigators of the hostility We
have mentioned, and the hired tools of Austria
in trying to destroy his influence and encompass
his destruction in the United States.
Among other things of equal significance hi
states the following startling fact:-

A NEW ALGEBRA Benjamin Greenleaf, Esq,
the we'll kno wn author of the National Arithme-
tic, has just brought in very handsome volume
from the press of R. S. Davis g. Co., A Practi'
cal Treatise on Algebra" new and original
work which we think competing authors will
find it hard to keep long out Of the market. Its
characteristics are, simplicity, clearness, and a
happy combination of the theoretical. 1t is the
child of Father Greenleafs old age, and, if we
mistake not, will make most acceptable addi'
ton to his already accepted system of common
arithmetic.

peared as original in the Freeman last year, bu
which has been going the rounds several months

CoNeREss.-The doings OF Congress are still
of little interest, though several bills of impor-
lance are in progress, among which are those
granting public lands for Railroads leading into
the Far West. If these bills succeed, their
passage will furnish precedent which may
have an important bearing on the future dispo'
sal Of our public domain.
A bill making bounty land warrants assigna-
bic has at length been got through Congress and

The Southern Union Men and the

The Journal and Messenger, of Georgia, which
in its efforts to persuade the Union men to send
delegates to the Democratic Convention at
Baltimore, is warmly supported bv the Washing

Press, the most ultra Wing paper in the State
OF Georgia." under the control of an emigrant
from Pennsylvania, in the interest of Messrs.

Industrial Congress.

This body adjourned on Saturday. The Incl
dents of the past week threw it very much into
the shade. Although we have inquired into its
purposes, however we must confess that our in
formation in regard to them is very imperfect.
REFORMATION appears TO be the leading idea; but
of what, and in what manner, has not been clearly
revealed. We see something stated to the effect
that the principle of Land Freedom is the only
true principle Of working out mans capability to
enjoy life, liberty, and happiness; that the sys-
tenn of renting public buildings, rendering the
should be discountenanccd; that measures should
be taken to secure the complete breaking UP Of
all establishments where whiskey is sold; that
actual settlers should have the right to the soil,
and this Congress claim for the people the right
to locate such land; that the homestead should
be exempted from alienation for debt that this
Congress will not support candidates for execu-
tive Offices unless they advocate the freedom Of

limitation, &C., sc.

We DO not think any very great sensation has
been produced by the Industrial Congress; and,
although 1t is organized as n balance of power

doiDgs! Balances Of power are SO plentiful in

The Democratic Platform.

Passing over all the " old saws" we quote the
9th 10th, and 18th resolutions of the Baltimore
Convention:
80. That Congress has no power, under the
constitution, to interfere with or control the do
nestle institutions of the several States, and that
such States are the sole and proper judges Of
everything appertaining to their own affairs, not
prohibited by the constitution; that all efforts OF
the Abolitionists or others made to induce Con-
gress to interfere with questions of slavery or to
take ncipient steps in relation thereto, are cal
culated to lead to the most alarming and dan
gerous consequences; and that all such efforts
have an inevitable tendency to diminish the hap
pness Of the people and endanger the stability
and permanency of the Union, and ought not to
be countenanced by any friend Of our political
institutions.
"ReSoJUed, That the foregoing proposition
covers and was intended to embrace the whole
subject of slavery agitation in Congress, and
therefore The Democratic party Of The Union, stand
ing upon this national platform, aciU abide by and
adhere 10 a faithful execution OF The acts hnown as
The Compromise measures, settled By the last Con-
grcSS-the act for the retaining OF fugitives
from service or labor included: which act, being
designed to carry out an express provision OF the
constitution, cannot, with fidelity thereto, be re-
pealed or 50 changed as 10 destroy or impair its
efficiency.
"ResolUed, That the Democratic party wW resist
all attempts al renewng, IN Congress or out Of IT. the
agitation Of the Slavery question, under whatever
shape or color the attempt may be made"
Is this platform for the North and the South
both Are they both going to stand on it eter-
nally? "Finality" is not named. Why not
Nothing else would suit in Congress the other
day. "Totality" is not named. Why not?
What change has taken place in our Democratic
friends? They are merely acquiesceat! What
is the matter?
The last resolution, however, appears pretty
broad. They will resist ALL ATTEMPTS al renescing
The agitation Of the SLAVERY question: The whole
party is pledged to this. Will it remember its
pledge? Until the election is over it may but it
will neither do so in " totality" nor in fnality"
afterwards. This is the only thing that may be
depended on as certainty
California is large State. 1t is to be divided
into two States. 1t is the intention of the Southern
people that one of these shall be slave State.
Congress must admit or exclude such State. Will
there be no "agitation" the subject? If
there will, by whom is it to be introduced? Is
the Democratic party expected "to resist" the
admission of such a State? We shall see.
What poor twattling piece of demagoguism
is this resolution. Red flannel again to catch
gudgeons.

The Democratic Platform.

We select from the programme of principles
set forth by the Democratic party the following
resolution:
"Resoloed, That the war with Mexico, upon
all the principles of patriotism and the laws of
nations, was just and necessary war on our
part, in which every American citizen should
have shown himself on the side Of his country,
and neither morally nor physically, by word or
deed, have given aid and comfort to the enemy"
This is cruel and unmanly attack upon the
memory of the statesman of Fort Hill-the lion
of the Democratic party in the South-the la
mented John C. Calhoun. Men of information
well recollect that this great man denounced, in
his seat in the Senate, the Mexican war measure
in indignant and scathing terms. The +" aid and
comfort" portion of the resolution is decidedly
rich. If it means anything, it is that the Wings
and Mr.. Calhoun sided with the enemies Of theil
country. There are some who honestly and reli.
giously believe that one Winfield scott-"old
Chip."-was on the other side.

0The Nutrittyc Principle"

We have received from its author copy of a
treatise, in one volume, on new theory OF dis
ease, its treatment and cure, based upon the M
tritipe principle. 1t is from the pen Of ALFRED
G. HALL, NJ. D., Professor of Physiology, &C.,
now of this city.
In this treatise, Dr.. Hall appears to have con-
densed in popular form the views by the OBJ
servance of which he has in different parts of the
United States gained no little celebrity as med
ical practicien. He states that he has written a
pamphlet for the people, purposely avoiding tech
nicaties, in order that he might address intelli-
gibly that most numerous and most interesting
class of the community called the common people,.
His views appear to be philosophical, and to pro-
coed from an examination Of many years, and
cannot fail to interest any who would inquire
into the principles of physiology, the nature OF
disease and the means of its cure
We believe this work may be obtained at the
bookstores of this city. Dr.. Halls residence is
at Mrs. Eaton's clearinghouse, opposite Browns
Hotel, Pennsylvania avenue.

Wayward Youth.

A correspondent informs that in stroll
through the outskirts of our city, few days ago,
he came suddenly upon about dozen boys, vary
ing in age from eight to fifteen years. Before
coming up to them, his ears were greeted with
the most profane, obscene, and disgusting Ian
guage lips could utter. He found them divided
into two parties, for convenience, playing at
cards, with their stakes up, and with as much
sang trod as would grace the best-regulated gam
bling dens of this National Metropolis" In one
of the groups the game was soon decided, and
the cictor, in high glee, grabbed the stakes with
flourish of the hand and oath to give it greater
Importance, while the vanquished parties in
wrath INDUCED in the most bitter profanity
against the fortunate waaner.
The writer comments with justice upon the
depravity of youth in this city, as evidenced in
this and thousand such instances alludes to
the incendiarism and crime of every character
that prevails; and attributes it all, together with
the destruction Of the youths who pursue such
practices, to the culpable indulgence and vanity
Of parents. We think with him that erroneous
opinions and false sentiments prevail among the
parents of our city on this subject Precocity,
cleverness, and pertness are praised and iattered
while docility, subordination, and modesty have
no recompense. Tobacco, cigars, dice, cards,
oaths, and obscenity are the accomplishments
aimed at by but too many of the boys of Wash
ington and parents fatter themselves with the
notion that the wisdom of years will correct such
things. If the defect was alone in their intellec-
tual education, time might repair it; but time
seldom cures the false conceptions of morality
and the perverseness that render the heart i'm
pure and wicked in the days of our youth.
The Jail, the penitentiary, and the gallows may,
by-and-by, do something for those whose parents
now have it in their power to guard them from
crime and all its sequences.
Many parents who read these remarks may
think them not applicable to them. We have
kno,cn many such 10 be deceived.

The WING Nominating Convention.

| This Convention will assemble at Baltimore on
Wednesday of next week.
II will consist of delegates from most OF the
States of the Union instructed to vote for WEB.
sTER, FILLMORE, and SooTT, and of some who are
without other instructions than to select such
candidates as they may believe to be worthy, &C
ceptable to the Wing party, and likely to bring
success to its standard.
The friends Of each of the three gentlemen We
have named profess to believe his nomination
either certain or probable.
The examination Of the credentials ofdelegates
may be attended with some trouble, as it is GER
tain that no impositions will be permitted if at
tempted.
In going into Convention, an implied promise
will be made by all to adhere in good faith to
,shatever nominations shall be made.
We think that neither the temporary nor the
permanent organization will occasion any trouble.
The introduction or the prohibition of platform
may prove ground of controversy.
So, also, if it be introduced, will be the question
whether to entertain it before or after the nomi-
nations.
And so, also, will be the question upon the
adoption or rejection of such platform as a COM
mittee may report.
If the delegates all assemble for the single
purpose Of promoting the success of the Wing
party, the task will be plain and easy.
If a portion of them evince any other purpose,
we hope the rest may silence them OF compel
them to retire.
Our preference is of course for General ScoTT,
as we firmly believe is that of four-ffths of the
Wings of this whole republic; but in the Conven-
ton we shall hail with pleasure and delight the
true and devoted friends of Mr. Fillmore and
MIR. Webster, who shall come there to urge their
preferences in an honorable manner, and to sub
NIT like true Wings and honest men to the will
of the aiority.
