of Congress, and by them endorsed as candid,
fair, and truthful account of the dangers of immi-
grafton. 1t contains the proceedings and resolu-
tions of many public meetings held by foreigners

disputable evidence of their hostility to republican
institutions.

The Cincinnati Convention has been guilty of
several glaring and ridiculous Inconsistencies it
reafirms the Baltimore platform of 1852, which
accepted and supported all the Compromise meas
ures of 1850, and the then existing laws on the
subject of slavery as inality, embracing the Mis-
souri, Compromise as part of those laws and the
most material part of them; and then tack on to
the platform string of resolutions, one of which,
in the strongest language, adopts the Nebraska-
Kansas act as Democratic measure, which repu-
dates the platform Of 1850, in this that it repeats
the Missouri Compromise. The same platform of
1859 denies the constitutional power of the Gene
raj Government to engage. in internal improve
ments; the resolution of 1855 declares it the duty
of the Federal Government to exercise promptly
all its proper constitutional powers to build up
Pacific railroad 1t is true that the introduction
OF the word " proper" in the resolution may, and

Mr.. FILLMoRE.--The Paris correspondent of the
Herald writes as follows, under date of May 2lst:
/" Mr.. Fillmore arrived here yesterday from Copper.
hagen He left Rome with view to go to Russia,
but found the Baltic blocked with ice. So he re-
turned here, and will in few days, leave for Eng
land You may expect him home in four or five
weeks. He looks remarkably well, and l venture
to say is the most composed candidate for the
Presidency now extant. Mr.. Fillmore received the
first official information of his nomination by the
American party in Venice, and duplicate Of it
here the day before yesterday. His acceptance
goes out by the same mail which carries this let
ter. Mr.. f. endorses the general principles of
the platform, and condemns all sectional agitation.
He accepts the nomination as a national man."

The DExocRATc PLAryoRN.--We published
yesterday an abstract of the platform adopted by
the Democratic National Convention at Cincinnati.
Until final action has been taken on the whole OF
It. and il Is before US fully and officially, il would
be premature to discuss it,. For the present we
will only remark, that while it is some improve
ment on former platforms, 1t fails to come up to
that high Southern standard which party lavish
of promise, and 30 Indifferent about squaring its
performance with it's pledges, as the Democratic
might have been expected, in the present exigen-
cy, to Offer True it says that the people OF Ter
ritory, in forming State constitution, may decide
the question of slavery for themselves but it care
fully omits to say that they may do it only then
Nor is this the worst; 1t studiously avoids, as we
predicted II would do all alusion to the most vital
and important questi0n--whether the people OF
the South shall be permitted to take their slaves
into any Territory of the Union, and there hold
and use them under the protection of the Federal
Government, until the Territory shall be made a
State whether, in other words, the Constitution
of the United States carries slavery with it wher-
ever II extends, until the people, acting IN regu-
lar and lawful way, determine to dispense with II,
so that if Canada were annexed to the United
States the citizen of Virginia would, 60 instdrft
have the same right to go there with bis slaves,
as property, that the citizen of Connecticut would
have TO 90 there with his wooden nutmegs This
is the great practical issueof the day, and we la
ment to see thata party so powerful as the Demo-
cratic, claiming to be infalible and unimpeachable
on the slavery question, have deliberately and
completely shirked il. But not intending dis

what is the character of the school, the progress
of the pupils, the mode Of instruction, and success
in the work given the teacher to do.
DR.. McKim disclaimed all knowledge of the me-
mortal, but remarked that he agreed with the
teachers in respect to the efect on the health of
the pupils from long sessions. he was in favor of
short sessions and pleasant ones, frequent inter-
missions, and full opportunity for physical devel
opment. He doubted, however, whether the ex-
ercises of the more advanced schools could be
completed in less time than is now devoted to
them.
DR.. Davis concurred with his colleague in re-
gard to the inexpediency Of shortening the ses-
sions for the larger pupils; the younger children
have now the opportunity of retiring at earlier
hour. He did not think the convenience Of the
teachers would be promoted by shortening the re-
cess.
The teachers in his district faithfully kept the
allotted hours and sometimes they found 1t neces-
sary to exceed them, were they in favor of un-
authorized holydays; he added, that there would be
dissatisfaction If the hours in all the schools were
not uniform. He was strongly opposed to any
change in the existing rules on the subject.
Mr. Pearson concurred generally in the views ex-
pressed by the President, and more especially in
the importance of having the hours uniform in all
the schools.
Mr. Dickinson thought the views presented by
the memorialists were reasonable, he believed with
out shortening the school term, change in the
hours might be made to advantage; he was deci-
dedly IN favor OF relaxation Of the rule for the
next two hot months. 800 b.

The Inquisitive Yankee,

The following new edition with improve ments," of an old anecdote, is exceedingly rich:
 gentleman riding in an eastern railroad car which was rather scarcely supplied with passengers, observed in a shat beforehin a lean sIab-sided Yankee; every feature of his face seemed to ask question, and little circum- stance soon proved that he possessed most 'lnquiring mind.' Before him occupying the entire seat, sat lady dressed in deep black and, after shifting his position several times and maneuvrng to get an opportunity to look into her face, he at length caught her eye.
 |" In affliction?"
 Yes, sir" responded the lady.
 "Pa-rant?-father or mc,ther?"
 "No, sir"
 Child, perhaps?-boy pr girl?,
 No, sir, not child-I have no children" Husband, then, 1 expect?'
 Yes," was the curt answer.
 Hum-colery?--a tradin' man, mavbe?,
 My husband was a sea- -faring man-tb. captain of vessel he didn't die of cholera: he was drowned" oh! drowned, eh?'' pursued the inquisitor, hesltating for brief nstaut.
 Save his chist?"
 I es, the vessel was saved, and my hus- bands efects,' said the widow.
 Was they?' asked the Yankee. his eyes frightening up.
 PlOus man?''
 lie was member of the Methodis. church."
 The next question was 3 little delayed but it came.
 "Don't you think you have great cause to be thankful that he was 1ious man and saved his chist?'
 "I do," said the widow, abruptly. und turned her head to look out of tho window. The in. ueia'isaoIe pump changed his position, held the "ioow oy hls gllttering eye once more, and propounded one more query in q little lower tone, with his head slightly inclined forward. over the back of the seat " Was you calculatin' to get married again?''
 SIr," sald the widow indignantly, "you are impertinent" And she left her seat and took another, on the other ade of the car

Very remarkable!" replied; livery remark able, indeed! But tell me, did the girl finally recover?''
 "She did, and turned out to be a most beau tful creature, and only sweet seventeen"
 "And suppose she blessed the resurrection ists all the rest of her life!' I rejoined, with laugh.
 "She certainly held one of them in kind re- membrance," returned the doctor, with sigh.
 "What became of her, doctor?"
 "What should have become of her. accord ing to the we'll known rules of poetic justice of all you novel writers?'' returned my friend, with a peculiar smile.
 "Why," said I, laughing, "she should have turned out an heiress, and married you'
 And that is exactly what she did!" reioined the doctor.
 "Good heavens! You are iesting!'
 : No my friend no,' replied the doctor, in a falterlne voice; "that night of horror only pre-. ceded the dawn of my happiness, for that girl-sweet, lovely Helen Leory-in time be- came my wife, and the mother of two boys. She sleeps now in death beneath the cold, cold sod :" added the doctor, in a tremulous tone, and brushing tear from his eye; and no hu- man resurrectionists shall ever raise her to life again"
