est, 10 suspend the passage OF bill whose
merits cannot secure the approval of two
thirds of the Senate and House Of Repre-
sentatives 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 a
corrupting system of general internal inn
proyements.
VIII. Resolved, That the Democratic
party will faithfully abide by and uphold
the principles laid down in the Kentucky
and Virginia resolutions of 1898, 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. Resolued, That the war with Mex
leo, upon all the principles Of patriotism
and the laws of nations, was just and
necessary war on orr 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,
nave given dIu dHu COuiloit W TIC
enemy"
x. Resolved, That we rejoice at the res
toration of friendly relations with our sister
Republic Of Mexico, and earnestly desire for
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 indemnify for the
past and security for the future"
XII. ResolDed, 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
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 it is, and
the Union as it shall be, in the full expan-
sion Of the energies and capacity of this
great and progressive people.

Nv. Resolued, That the foregoing prop
osition covers and was intended TO en-
brace the whole subject Of slavery agitation
in Congress; and therefore the Demo-
cratic party ofthe Union, standing on this
national platform, will abide by and adhere
to a faithful execution Of the acts known

last Congress, I" the act for reclaiming flu

which act, being designed to carry out an
express provision Of the Constitution, can
not with fidelity thereto be repealed or so

will resist all attempts at renewing, in

Slavery question, under whatever shape or
color the attempt may be made.
vi. Resolred, 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 for the distribution Of such pro-

dent in policy and repugnant to'the Con-
stitution.

opposed to taking from the President the

"A FREE COUNTY"

The Jackson Mississippi papers give detailed
accounts of tho expulsion from that city of one of
the teachers of their schools, for communicating
in a private letter to a friend, his opinion of north
ern men who settle down in the South and become
Shareholders and advocates of the system. The
letter was, by oversight, deposited in the jackson
Post Office, without the proper direction. To as
certain this the postmaster opened the letter, and
thus discovered the treason Of the young mans
heart to Slavery. He published the fact and in
consequence in q few hours after, he was dismissed
from his school and compelled TO leave the city to
save his life. That our readers may learn what
constitutes an ofensc in this county worthy Of ex-
lie, stripes and even death, we copy the offensive
extract as published in the tJackson) Mississippian
of Sept. 10Th. The Mississippian stygmatises
the writer as u base wretch an assassin &C.,
though it acknowledges that no effort was made
to disseminate such sentiments in Jackson. The
following extract, stolen from his private northern
correspondence, was Mr.. SMEElEE's sole offence.
Writing to a northern acquaintance, and speak
Ing of a college mate who had removed to the South,
he said
---talks as if Mississippi is to be his
future home. lie appears pleased with all things
slavery not excepted. In my opinion he is one
OF those men Tor gong to be- who, Graded In the
land of liberty,-come here to give up their priuci
pies and become the warmest apologists and advo
Gates Of the cursed system Of slavery. For South.
crn men born and nurturcd in the midst of slavery
and even taught to believe it as right, and to up
hold it, have tbs deepest sympathy and respect
but for that northern man whom education, con
science and experience all teach him better, and
yet who comes here and becomes the abologist for
and uses his influence in favor of slavery, | have
the most unmitigated contempt. 1t Is the basest
sacrifice of principle to selfish ends, and proving
recreant to that which every northern freeman,
especially must feel and know is the vitality of our
republic-the safeguard to society-the element
of national prosperity in every institution that
tends to elevate and dignity man.
lie who thus acts with his eyes open, and con-
science goading Kim, willingly steps upon and
brushes beneath his feet the poor and helpless
masses, that he may rise and ho u lord of earth.
There are thousands of this very class of northern
men in this country, and they have done more to
perpetuate slavery than southerners themselves.
