Resolued, That Congress has no power under the
constitution interfere with or control the domestic
Institutions of the several States, and that such States
are the sole and proper judges of everything aPper-
tanning to their own affairs, not prohibited by the
constitution; that all efforts of the abotionists
others made to induce Congress to interfere with
questions of slavery, take ncipient steps in
laon thereto calculated to lead to the most alarm
ing and dangerous consequences j.; and that all such
efforts have an inevitable tendency to diminish the
happiness ofthe people, and endanger the stability and
permanency of the Union, and ought not to be coun-
enanced by any friend of political institutions.
ResoLued, That the foregoing proposition covers
and was intended to embrace the whole subject of
slavery agitation in Congress- and therefore the Dem
ocratic party of the Union, star ding upon this
tonal platform, will abide by and adhere TO faith
full execution of the acts known as the compromise
measures settled by the last Congress-the act for
the reclaning of fugitives from service labor in
cIuded-which act, being designed to carry out an
express provision of the Constitution cannot, with
fidelity thereto, be repealed or so changed as to de-
stroy impair its efficiency.
Resolred, that the Democratic party will resist all
ttempts at renewing in Congress or out of it, the
agitation of the Slavery question, under whatever
shape color the the attempt may be made.
II accept the nomination upon the platform adop-
ted by the Convention, because this is expected
of me as candidate, but because the principles it
embraces command the appreciation of my judgment
and with them | believe can safely say there has
been word act of my life in conflict
