An 4" immense meeting" (as the Richmond
Wing assures the public of the Delaware
friends of the proposed new party was held on
the 10th instant at Dover, whereat the platform
platforms being quite as dog cheap party
names) was for the first time formally pro-
mulged, as follows:
That the name OF the party be "THE PEOPLES
PARITY ---.--.
That its principles be:
That the citizens Of the Territories be allowed
to settle their own Institutions and their own
forms Of government. ..-'l .FL-- r
That the constitution of every new State be
submitted to the people for ratification or rejec-
ton before being accepted by Congress. 4
That a tariff for revenue be laid with incident
al protection TO home industry.
That when the revenue of the Government ex-
rived from the sale Of the public lands Shall be
divided among the States, both old as well as
new.
That the importation Of foreign criminals and
paupers be prohibited.
With the exception of the theft of Demo-
cratic party platitude and the adoption Of the
t-Democratic idea that tho people of new
States may not lawfully and properly adopt
constitutions without formally submitted to a
popular vote, and the further exception of the
anti-criminal emigration idea, which all of all
parties alike approve, this new party platform
of principles simply embraces doctrines for
which the opposition have contended from King
Biddle's palmiest days, down to yesterday.
"Fool who, with your soft corn!'
THE YELLOW FEVER has already arrived
a single case-at New York, from Havana.
coming by the Black Warrior. As the cheated
| term" has set in there, the New York public
is evidently under great CONSERVATION over the
matter. A gentleman just from New Orleans
and Mobile, close observer, assures US that,
though the newspapers of these cities do not
| mention the fact the fever has broken out in
both of them. 1t behooves our corporate au-
| thOrities to bestir themselves in the work Of
| the publication Of this city. Washington, up
| to this time, was never before more healthy at
any season of the year. To preserve this
blessing unimpaired will, however, require the
| earnest efforts of not only the authorities, but
| of all of our fellow-oitizens.
UTAH DISPATCHES Cabinet yesterday
had under consideration the dispatches re-
| ceived from Gov. Cummings, per Col Kane
convincing of pacific intentions and acquies-
| cence to law on the part of the Mormons to
| warrant any change in the movements of troops
| heretofore commenced Further intelligence
will be anxiously awaited, and on that will
depend the adoption Of other measures than
those now in progress.
PRE-EMPTIoN LAWS Under the old laws
| disputes arising out of pre-emptioH,land titles
were referred directly from the District Land
Offices to the Secretary of the Interior. This
| caused that officer great deal of labor and
| consumed large portion of his time At its
| recent session, Congress modified the laws on
this subject, so as to relieve the Secretary, and
hereafter all such cases will be decided by the
Commissioner of the General Land Office, sub
ject to appeal to the Secretary.
| GOVERNOR WIsE.-Thc distinguished Gov
| ernor of Virginia, We hear, was very recently
in this city, in fine spirits, looking in fine health
also. 1t is said that he had long and earnest
interviews with his friend tho distinguished
Senator from Illinois, ere that gentleman de-
parted for the West on the day before yes,er-
day.
