A Suspicious Platform.

The Democracy of the Third were
but little less cowardly than those of
this District at their Congressional Con-
vention. The following is all the Plat
form adopted by them:
ResOlced, That the Cincinnati plat
form be the platform Of this Conyen-
ton.
Resolced, That the proceedings of
this Convention be published in all
the Democratic papers of the District.
buchanan insists that he is CARRYING
out the principles of the Cincinnati
platform. Douglas claims that he stands
upon 1t. DO the Democracy Of the
Third District adopt it as understood
by Buchanan or Douglas? Never be-
tore were the Democrats of Wisconsin
50 hard pressed that they dare not avow
any political sentiments. whatever. Tn
this District they did not even endorse
the Cincinnati platform.-Nuaisoa
Journal
In all three Districts the Democrats,
Conventions purposely ignored the Ad-
ministration. This is the first time
within cur recollection that Demo
cratic President has been so cavalierIv
treated b his protested political friends
in this State. Ofcourse his real friends
resent the insult so deliberately offered.
The Stevens Point P'3aery, speaking OF
the course pursued by the DOUGLAS
leaders iii this District, says that at
can Only be regard:d as ig1soring, ifnot
repuai0ting the present -4duoiltisfro
ton, and it denounces their refusal to
pass resolution complimentary to Mr..
Buchanan as '0futdI error, achich riA
pro0aby cause the dstfeat Of Their en-
didate before the People.
The same ''fltal error" has been
committed by the party leaders in the
other two districts, and the like conse-
qnencc, ''tho deteat ofthoir candidate
before the EoopIe," may be safely ante.
lpated: Assuredly they cannot impose
upon the intelligent electors of Wiscon
sin by a mum game. Ifthey are afraid
to show their hands, or avow their sen.
tnncnts III regard to the pending issue
Of the day; if they dare not either en-
dorso, or repudiato the National Ad
mlnistration; if their candidates s:paltel
in double sense and endeavor t.
straddle tn? dividing fence between
Douglas and Buchanan, they canno
expect, and certainly will not receive
the confidence OF support Of the People
Wisconsin wants no two-faced, double
tongued Representatives. The time re
qulrc, and our State demands, in Con
gress, men Of firm purpose, of well
known, and openly avowcd principles
and Of int1exibio fidelity to the cause
OF Freedom. Such are Potter, Wash.
bune and Billinghurst. But sucl

a most lamentable affair bav;ng lato
, Unopened here, which has resulted
IN the suicide of one of the parties i'm
piicatea, induces ME to give Won some
facts in the case. Some Eaars ao,
there resided here a Young man and
woman, who married and moved ~
Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The ,,o,nl
woman was fair to look upon. csnec;ai
" when decked with fashionable cloth
ing and other things to set off her ner-
son TO advantage, in which she was ant
10 indulge. At the west she became
acquainted with one Martin B. Coombs
Il native OF Cincinnati, Ohio. who was
wealthy, Sood-looking and accomplish
ed. But, alas, for poor human nature.
ne was not inclined to put watch over
himself and walk in the path of moral
leclit"ae. The acquaintance of the
TWAIN rlpened into intimacy. and from
intimacy into guilt, as it is said. This
TACT coming to the husbands ears. he
was IAN to part from his guilty wife.
one came East, and last SUNDAY arriv-
e" on the steamer Sanford. and after
the shades Of night had covered the
earth as with a mantle, she sought the
residence OF one of her nearest rela-
tVes. 1t seems that her p,ramonr
came III the same boat, but whether
with her consent know not. He went
to the Franklin House and booked hi,
name as Charles NJ. Baker, Boston.
The first knowledge the public of
OF tins community had of him was the
intelligence that a man had committed
suicide at the Franklin House by tax
mg morphine, the particulars of which.
as detailed IN our papers here, You have
undoubtedly given to the public ere
thus, BY this mail you will receive fur
ther information in our papers concern
ING the sad event. 1t is impossible for
me to tell you the whole story of this
case OF wrong and infatuation. but T
suppose that Mr.. Coombs had become
50 enamored of this Young woman that
he determined to live with or die with
out her.

is believed, he las been defrauded OF
his seat in Congress. The poll book
having been opened to him for examin-

Of the district, 400 fraudulent ballots,
and he and his friends do not doubt
that the investigation will result in prov
