LEFT THEIR PLATFoRM.-The Republican pa
pers throughout the Atlantic States, admit that
their members Of Congress have voted in direct
opposition to the platform Of the party, by vo.
ting for the Crittenden substitute for the bill to
admit Kansas The principal plank in the plat
form Of the Republicans, is opposition to the
admission Of any more slave States into tn,
Union, whether the people want slaves or not
But every Republican in Congress, except Sen
ator Cameron, who paired Of with Senator Da
Wis, voted to admit Kansas with the Lecompton
ConstitutiOn, which establishes slavery, provi-
ded majority Of the people Of Kansas are in
favor Of it. This is carrying cut, practically,
the Democratic doctrine of popular sovereignty.
The old line Abolitionists, who voted for Fre-
mont in 1856, will never consent to such an in
novatien in their platform; and if the action of
their Representatives is sustained by any con-
siderable number Of the Republican masses, we
may look for split in that party. Such men
% VIM. L. Garrison, Gerrit Smith, and their
followers will never act with party, thai
would under any circumstances, consent to the
admission of q slave State.

SAD ACADEMIA little boy aged about two
years, a son Of Mr.. Apperson, who resides at
the Spring Hill House, on the Washington
road, was terribly burned last Friday evening.
He was playing near the house with some other
small children, who had built fire. He had
on pair of loose pantaloons, and in passing
round the fire the left leg Of the pants took fire,
and the children were unable to put it out
The screams of the little sufferer were heard by
his mother, who run out and caught up the
child and endeavored to cxtinguish the fire by
wrapping her clothes around him, but not sue
ceeding, she carried him across the road and
threw him into trough of water. His left leg
was SO badly burned that all the skin came off
and his left side was also considerably burned
At FIRST it was thought he was fatally injured
but hopes are now entertained of his recovery

The ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH LINE.-The Lon
don Times says that the general programme Of
the second attempt to submergc the Atlantic
telegraph wire has already been decided on.
The 400 miles of cable ordered to replace the
384 which were lost last autuma. off Valentia.
have been completed, and it is intended, in or
der to make better provision for casualties. that
an additional 300 miles shall be at once pro-
ceeded with. The Agamemnon and the Mag
ara are the vessels again to be employed in the
attempt to lay the wire, and the operation will,
this year, be commenced in the middle of June,
in which month, it is said, gale in the Allan
tic seldom occurs. On this occasion the line
will be joined and laid from the center Of the
ocean, the Niagara conveying her end of the
cable to Ireland. and the Agamemnon bringing
hers to America. AS soon as the cable is stow
ed away, the two steamers will proceed into
deep water, where experiments will be made
with the paying-out machinery, to ascertain.
practically, if any difficulties exist in the pro-
posed plan for submerging the wire from the
center of the Atlantic.

The GRASS VALLEY TRAoEDY.-We gave last
week brief account of the shooting of man
in Grass Valley, while attempting to enter a
house, who was mistaken for robber. The
name Of the unfortunate man was James Dugan,
and it seems he was possessed of handsome
property, and owned a quartz mill, at Browns
valley, Yuba county. He was shot about three
O'Clock on Tuesday morning, and died on Wed.
nesday. Several burglaries had recently been
attempted in Grass Valley, and Mr.. Smith, the
man who fred at Dugan, was acting under the
full belief that he was shooting q robber. An
inquest was held on the body, by Justice Spof
ford and Mr.. Smith was held to bail in the sum
Of $500 to await the action Of the grand jury
Mr.. Dugan was considerably intoxicated at the
time, and acted but poorly the part of a robber;
for this reason many are disposed to attach
blame to Mr.. Smith for firing with such incon-
siderate haste.
