LOUIS NApoLEos.-some of the papers are
making considerable fuss about the past life of
Louis Napoleon. There is variety OF wit
nesses. The toadies OF his excelency see al
most every thing correct, exact and proper in
his past iite According to them, he has been
an exemplary citizen. worthy friend, and an
at1ecaonate son, etc.; and as We have it from
the other side, he has been all that was disso-
lutte, debased and abandoned. We suspect the
real truth lies between the two-that he has
been neither so bad nor so good as has been
Men to some extent worship success; so it
IS not strange that men are found to white
wash the past life of Louis Napoleon. And the

that yellow fever cannot live without con-

room every where for yellow fever. All these
have disappeared now, and with them every

that congress has no power to establish but can

The American geographical society intend to
have the region of country lying back of Ii

ing the sum of $4,000 to effect that purpose.
The present commerce of Liberia is estimated
at from 81, 200, 900 to 81. 5000 This will
soon be increased by the establishment of regu-
lar lines of packets and possibly BY small steam
ers from this country. The opening of an ex-
tensive back country to Liberia, with good
roads and secure trading posts, would i'm
measurably enhance the prosperity OF that re-
public, and would proportionably increase its
commerce with the United States At any rate
the exploration will prove interesting.

Politics make strange bedfeows as well as

test is still carried on fercely as ever but Girl

The reverend Theodore Clapp, one Of the
most talented and popular divines ofN. Orleans,
has resigned his pastoral charge, owing to i'll
health. The Picayune expresses hopes that he
will be able to resume his labors next fall; but
we surmise from the tenor of conversation we
had with him few days since that he contem-
plates seeking rest in colder region, and with
that view has purchased property in Chicago,
Illinois. Mr.. Clapp is, we believe, at this time
the oldest American minister Of the gospel in
Louisiana, having commenced his abors in the
Crescent City some thirty years ago.

ENDORSEMENT OF THE PLATFORM.

The Slavery men took care in the Conven-
ton at Cincinnati to secure the platform be-
fore they would allow the nomination to be
made. The National Latelligencer, in an edi.
tOrlal on the selection of James Buchanan,
decried the platform, but complimented the
nominee. Mr.. Buchanan will not suffer him
self to be thus divorced from it. He who swal-
lows him must gulp down at the same time
the whole mass of resolves, with all their cru
dities, contradictions, and diabolisms. He is
joined to them for better or worse; sink or
swim, live or die, he abides by them.
Monday, June 9th, the Keystone Club of
Philadelphia waited upon him at Wheatland,
and he thus addressed them:
Gentlemen of the Keystone Club: 1 give
you most hearty and warm welcome to my
abode. / congratulate you, not upon my NOM
nation, but upon the glorious privilege of be-
ing citizens of our great Republic. Your su-
Periority over the people of other countries
has been fully demonstrated by the conduct of
vast concourse assembled during the past
week at Cincinnati Upon any similar occa-
sion in Europe, the voluntary expression of
the ns2als ysl" ave been uiesssea III lar
tial music, ara tne1r acUOnS COnIrOlleU ny al
army with banners. How unlike the spectacle
at Cincinnati, where dele yates from the people
of the different States met in Convention, UNI
der the protection of the Constitution and laws,
and harmoniously delberated upon subjects OF
vital importance to the country. Gentlemen,
two weeks since l should have made you a
longer speech; but now / have been placed
upon platform of which | most heartily ap-
prove, and that can speak for me. Being the
of the great Democratic party,
and not simply James Buchanan, must square
my conduct according to the platform of that
party, and insert no new plank, nor take one
from it. That platform is sufficiently broad
and national for the whole Democratic party.
This glorious party, now, more than ever, has
that it is the true conservative
party of the Constitution and of the Union"
That will do-"plain as pipe-stem no
lodging, no equivocation-the monster plat
form, in all the length and breadth of its wick
edness, completely endorsed.

ting them on the same level in relation to the
determination of their domestic institutions, he
clearly meant to assert the right of the People
of Territory to exclude Slavery, just as the
People of State have right to exclude it.
This was his definition of the Principle of his
bill--this definition is repudiated by the Gin
cinnati Convention-and yet he is in an ecstacy
of delight, and can well forego the honor of the
nomination, since the Convention has fully and
emphatically endorsed him and his doctrine!
1t will not do, gentlemen. Murder will out.
The truth is made manifest. Practical Rufian-
ism in Kansas has trampled Squatter Sow
ereignty under foot-Doctrinal Ruf1ianism in
the Cincinnati Convention has blotted out the
very creed. For which of these acts do you
give thanks and rejoice?
