Border Kumanism and Modem DemOc.
Iacy Identical.


Senator Douglas, in his speech at the Buchan-
an ratification meeting in Washington, in which
be was so exceedingly jolly over his victory in
securing the incorporation Of his border rufian
creed into the Cincinnati platform, said, with an
Infinite deal Of truth
Democracy is now the same in Massachusetts,
South Carolina (applause), in Michigan, and in
Illinois in Ohio and Louisiana and wherever
the Democratic flag waves, there the Democratic
creed is one and the same"
What magnificent times are these Democracy
has indeed reached its climax-in the downward
ward direction. Its creed has become SO COM
pletely swallowed up and identified with border
rufianiam, that Democrats what there are left
Oi them) in old Massachusetts may shake hands
with and endorse the whole creed of their South
Carolina brethren Brooks, Keitt, &c J, without
any qualification or modification of their faith -
Hale fellows we'll met--Greene, Lorng Peaslee,
with Brooks, Kett, and their confederates, over
bowl Of punch, with their gutta percha canes
close by their side. Such are the leaders OF
modern democracy! And such has its creed
dwindled down to become. Well does the New
York Herald, itself "nigaer drivers" paper, Of
Democratic predictions, say, that the great
Democratic party of the country has at last be-
come but "a niger drivers party"

Mr.. BUCHANAN SQUARE ON THE PLATFORM.
That there might be no mistake as to his posi-
ton, Mr.. Buchanan, in speech at Lancaster,
Pa, on Sunday last, in reply to the Keystone
Club, placed himself heartily and squarely on the
Border Rufian Platform. Here are his words:
Gentlemen-Two weeks since should have
made you longer speech, but now haze been
placed upon a platform Of aohich most heartily
0ppyoUe and that can speak for me. Being the
representative of the great democratic party, AMI
not simply James Buchanan, must square ma
cnndttct according to The platform ofhtat party,
and insert no neso plank nor take one from 10.
That platform is sufficiently broad and national
for the whole democratic party. This glorious
party, now, more than ever, has demonstrated
that it is the true conservative party of the con-
stituton and of the Unon.'
The great democratic party of the Union has
thus so thoroughly Invested itself of all democrat
ic principles, as to boast of itself, not as an
exponent of democracy, but of conSerUatisns--
mere conservatism Of old abuses-without one
single element of repubbanism, or true democ-
racy about it. Its Presidential candidate, speak
ing from the Border Rufian platform, proclaims
the party now to be a mere conservative organiza-
ton. Conservative, indeed, it is, of the sin and
crime Of shooting peaceful settlers in Kanzas, by
lawless Misunderstanding down, by stealth
United States Senator's in their very seats, and
other such like crimnalities, which the party up.
holds, as a national organization.
Mr.. sUMNER.-The Washington correspond.
ent of the New York Post, says, under date of
the 9Th instant:
"Mr. Sumner continues to improve slowly. He
does not sit up more than an hour a day, and
even this effort causes great fatigue to him He
has been very anxious to take a short carriage
ride, but, DIR. Lindsey, his physician, does not
consider his system in a condition to warrant il
for some days to come"
BURNING OF STEAMER.--Th steamboat
City Of Newark, plying between New York

sage Tuesday, and was burned to the waters
edge. She had about one hundred passen-
gers on board, all ofwhom but four are known
TO have been saved by a couple Of steamtugs.
Great CONSERVATION prevailed among the pas
sengers, and two men and one woman were
drowned. The vessel was valued at $4,000,
and was insured for $4,000. The origin Of
the fire is unknown, but it is believed to have
been caused by excessive heat, ard efforts to
drive tho vessel, and hasten her passage to the
city.
