national platform, will abide by and adhere
to faithful execution Of the acts known

last Congress, /" the act for retaining fii-
gitives from service or labor" included I;
which act, being designed to carry out an
express provision Of the Constitution, cam

v. Resolved, That the Democratic party
will resist all attempts at renewing, in
Congress or out Of il, the agitation Of the
Slavery question, under whatever shape OF
color the attempt may be made.
vi. Resolrsd, That the proceeds Of the
public lands ought TO be sacredly applied
to the national objects specified in the
Constitution and that we are opposed to
any law fcr fhe distribution Of such pro-

THE ENGINEERS STATEMENT.
SusQUEHANNA DEpoT, Pa, |
June 20, 1854.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEW YORK HERALD.
On behalf of the engineers of the New York and
Erie Railroad, we have deemed it proper to lay be
fore the public statement, wherein is contained
the causes of our refusing to remain longer in the
employ of the above company:-On the first Of
May last by the resignation of Mr.. Charles Minot,
Mr.. D. G. McCallum succeeded him as the General
Superintendent of the road. During the admins.
tration of Mr.. Minot, as Superintendent there was
issued book of instructions for the running of the
trains on the road, as per Section SO, which reads
as folows:-
He the engineer) must pass by stations where his
tain does not stop, at much reduced rate Of speed
and haul up where trains are receiving or dschargng
Section e2-Every engineer in approaching road or
switch should move at moderate speed and see that
the way Is clear before he reaches It, II the switch be
not seen to be right he should stop till he Is and
avery good excuse will be required for running off at
proper lights at those switches or crossings where
usually shown Is to be considered sign to stop the
train which the engineer must al~sys do, and ne must
not proceed till he Is that all Is right and all such
omissions Of lights must be Immediately reported to the
superintendent
Under such instructions we were willing to work,
was always allowed for the engineers to show cause
If any, that blame could be attached to them for
the misfortune That on the 18th day of May last,
there was issued a supplementary to general in
structions Of March 9, 1854, which reads as fol.
lows:--
Rule l. Station agents will be held strictly responsible
for tho position of all switches at those stations and
like responsibility win devolve upon switchmen in charge
of turnouts where there is agent.
Rule 9. Every engineer will be accountable for run
ming OIL switch at any station where his train stops
but he will not be held responsible for running of
switch at station where his train does not stop.
In rule LIST you will notice that the station agents
are held responsible for the position Of the switches
at the station. This Is it should be, as u and
all who travel know that IL is the duty Of the
ginecr to keep the running part of his engine In
stations where he stops and It is understood to be
the duty of one man to look ont for an engine and
keep II In order. We do not make the statement
that an engineer cannot at times have his attention
