est, 10 suspend the passage OF Dill whose
merits cannot secure the approval OF two
thirds Of the Senate and House OF Repre-
sentatiyes until the judgment OF the people
can be obtained thereon, and which has
saved the American people from the cor
rupt and tyrannical domination OF the
Bank of the United States, and from
corrupting system of general internal I'M
provements.
VIII. Resolved, That the Democratic
party will faithfully abide by and uphold
the principles laid down in the Kentucky
and Virginia resolutions Of 179S, and in
the report Of Mr.. Madison to the Virginia
Legislature in 1899; that it adopts those
principles as constituting one Of the main
foundations Of its political creed, and is
resolved to carry them out in their obvious
meaning and import.
TX. ReSoIved, That the war with Mex
leo, 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 him
self on the side Of his country, and neither
morally nor physically, by word or deed,
have given "aid and comfort to the
enemy"
X. Resolved, That we rejoice at the res
toration offriendly relations with our sister
Republic Of Mexico, and earnestly desirefor
her all the blessings and prosperity which
we enjoy under republican institutions;
and we congratulate the American people
upon the results Of that war, which have
so manifestly justified the policy and con-
duct Of the Democratic party, and insured
to the United States indemnity for the
past and security for the future. /"
XII. Resolued, That, in view of the con-
dition Of popular institutions in the Old
World, high and sacred duty is devolved,
with increased responsibility, upon the
Democratic party Of this country, as the
party Of the people, to uphold and maintain
the rights Of every State, and thereby the
Union of the States, and to sustain and
advance among us constitutional liberty,
by continuing to resist all monopolies and
exclusive legislation for the benefit Of the
few at the expense Of the many, and by n
yigilant and constant adherence to those
principles and compromises of the Con-
stitution which are broad enough and
strong enough to embrace and uphold the
Union as il was, the Union as il is, and
the Union as it shall be- in the full expan-
sion of the energies and capacity of this
great and progressive people.

INDEPENDENT DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

ADOPTED AT PITTSBURGH. AUGUST u, 1859.
Having assembled in National Conyen-
ton as the delegates Of the Free Democra-
cy of the United States, united by COM
mon resolve to maintain right against
wrongs, and freedom against slavery; con-
fding in the intelligence, patriotism, and
the discriminating justice of the American
people; putting our trust in God for the
triumph Of our cause, and invoking his
guidance i'm our endeavors TO advance it,
we now submit TO the candid judgment of
all men the following declaration Of prin-
ciples and measures:
I. That Governments, deriving their just
powers from the consent of the governed,
are instituted among men TO secure TO all,
those inalienable rights Of life, liberty, and
the pursuit Of happiness, with which they
were endowed by their Creator, and of
which none can be deprived by valid legis-
lation, except for crime.
III. That the true mission of American
Democracy is to maintain the Liberties of
the people, the sovereignty of the States,
and the perpetuity Of the Union, by the
impartial application to public affairs, with
out sectional determinations, Of the fun
damental principles Of equal rights, strict
Justice, and economical administration.
iii. That the Federal Government is
one Of limited powers, derived solely from
the Constitution and the grants Of power
therein ought TO be strictly construed by
all the departments and agents Of the Gov
eminent, and it is inexpedient and dam
gerous to exercise doubtful constitutional
powers.
w. That the Constitution Of the United
States, ordained TO form a more perfect
union, to establish justice, and secure the
blessings Of liberty, expressly denies to
the General Government all power to de-
prive any person Of life, liberty, or prop
erty, without due process Of law; and,
therefore, the Government, having no more
power to make slave than to make a
king, and no more power to establish sla-
very than to establish monarchy, should at
once proceed to relieve itself from all re-
sponsibility for the existence of slavery
wherever il possesses constitutional power
to lcgislate for its extinction.
v. That, to the persevering and impor-
tunate demands Of the Slave Power for
more slave States, new slave Territories,
and the naturalization Of Slavery, our dis
tinct and final answer is--no more slave
States, no slave Territory, no nationalized
Slavery, and no national legislation for the
extradition Of slaves.
vi. That Slavery is a sin against God
and crime against man, which no human
enactment nor usage can make right; and
that Christianity, humanity, and patriotism,
alike demand its abolition.
VII. That the fugitive Slave Act Of 1850
is repugnant to the Constitution, to the
principles Of the compon law, to the
spirit of Christianity, and to the senti-
ments Of the civilized world. We there
fore deny its binding force upon the
American People, and demand its imme-
diate and total repeal.
VIII. That the doctrine that any human
law is inalty, and not subject to modi-
ication or repeal, is not in accordance
