Lying inBed.

No piece of Incidence hurts the health
more than the modern custom Of lying
abea too long in the morning. This is
general practice in great towns. The
inhabitants Of cities seldom rise before
eight or nine o'clock; but. the morning
is undoubtedly the best time for exercise,
while the stomach is empty and the
boay refreshed with sleep, Besides the
morning air braces and strengthens the
nerves, and in some measure answers
the purposes Of a cold bath. Let any
aone, who has been accustomed to lie III
bed till eight or mite o'clock, rise by six
or seven, spend couple Of hours IN
walking, riding, or any active diversion
without doors, and he will find his spir-
its cheerful and serene throughout the
day, his appetite keen, and his body
braced and strengthened.
Custoln soon renders early rising
agreeable, and nothing contributes more
to the preservation of health. The in
active are continually complaining of
pains, etc. These complaints, which
pave the way to many others, are not
to be removed by medicines; they can
only be cured by a vigorous course Of
exercise, to which indeed they seldom
fail to yield. It consists with observa.
ton that oil very old men have been ear.
y risers. This is the only circum.
stance attending longevity to which We
never knew an exception.

ries with the aid of the govern.
ment 1t simply demands equal
rights-that if a southern citizen
desires to improve his condition
by removal into the common
Territories of the Federation, and
takes his negro servants or social
ed slave property with him, he
shall receive exactly the same pro.
lection that is accorded to every
other species of property. That
is all, and if the subject was dis
cussed and understood at the
North, no one, except the Adolf
tionists per Se-the incorrigibles
the crazy people hopelessly de-
luded by Garrison and other tools
of the enemies of our institutions
would object to such just and rea-
sonable demands. At all events,
it IS certain that the cincinnati
PLATFORM does not touch the ques-
ton, for we repeat, nine-tenths of
the northern people will promptly
assent to it. and therefore to adj
ont it at Charleston would be an in
suit to the popular intelligence
certain to be resented by denim
ished vote for the Democratic can
didate.

PENNSYLVANIA ELECT1oN.-The
returns from Pennsylvania indi-
Gates that the State has been again
carried by the "people's party -
This result was to have been cx-
pected. The majority against the
Democracy last year was $4,000,
and we could not reasonably hope
to see it overcome in single year.
The majority, however, has been
greatly reduced. The counties
heard from which comprise about
one-half of the State, indicates a
gain for the Democratic ticket of
about 10000. 1t the returns con-
tinue to come in as favorably as
those already received, the major
ity against the Democracy will
not much exceed 10000. The
result is truly encouraging to the
Democracy of Pennsylvania, who,
during the recent contest, had
great odds to contend against
There was union of all parties
against them and yet they have
largely diminished the majority of
their opponents. This union cam
not continue. 1t is composed of
too many antagonisctic elements.
Next year, in a contest between a
Democrat and a pure Republican,
we have no doubt that Pennsylva-,
MIA will vote Democratic. LOUIS

with all due thanks for tho honor inten
ded, ! must beg leave to decline, and
like the duchess says: "IIad two heads,
one should be at your disposal; as it is,
! would fam retain mine cut of reach of
promises" so saying she bowed and
withdrew, giving, him low courtesy, of
the fashion of the times she had quoted.
Grief, dark and bitter, such as one
would never have thought could dwell
in the heart Of that proud man, dvelt
on his face when Emma Winthrop left
him hooking lightly the free feeling he
had spoken; yet no word Of this he ut
tered, when he babe her adieu next
morning, and returned to the home he
had left, and whittier he had hoped to
bring her lovedand loving bride. He
had not loved lightly; the strains of af-
lection swept sweetly up from the depths
Of his Utmost soul, making the cords
tremble in one lasting vibration; and
the image Of that gay, laughing face
fingered in memory, even when pride
rose with all its boosted power: to efface
and obliterate it.
The CONSERVATION ofJudge Winthrop
was great when told by Emma herself
Of her rejection Of his friend, and the
old man scolded to his hearts content at
hor light and frivolous conduct. Then
the matter was dropped and the way
ward girl left to herself
Three years after, Charles Ramsay
once more visited the Winthrops on his
way through the country; and this time
to find the gay, mocking Emma, state
ly, laughing girl Of twenty-three-very
beautiful, but reserved and digni6ed,
welcoming her guest with the same we'll
bred ease which had ever characterized
her. Her dress was now rich and ele-
giant, where before it had been light and
airy; the curls, too were woven in broad
bands, and formed natural cronet for
her fine head; her step firm, where it
had been tripping-such was the woman
he had vowed in his heart to VIM
Change, too, hadcome overhimin thought
as in feeling; perhaps many would
have despaired of conquering now what
heretofore had proved ,nvincible, yet
such was his determination, though du-
ring his stay they conversed together
upon ordinary topics, as guest and hos
tess would be likely to do. Yet, on the
eve Of his departure, neither heart could
stay tie feeling which prompted them
to acknowledge love which had ever
been mutual, and the vide spreading 10
Gust gave to the breeze tale which
made Judge Winthrop's heart gladwhen
q soft wind bore it to his ears, that EN-
ma was to become Mrs. Ramsay, and
accounted for the delay Of three years
which Emma had made, by saying, that
woman had had their. own way ever since
the world began, andlikely ever would.

THE RIGHT KIND or TALK.

The first Congressional District
of Massachusetts, has led off in the
right direction. The Democrats
of that part of the State, represent
ed in Convention assembled for the
purpose of choosing delegates to
the Charleston Convention, on the
4th inst, passed, among others,
the following resolution:
Resolved, That we hold to the doc
trine Unpopular sovereignty as contained
in the compromise measures of 1850, as
explained by the Kansas Nebraska act
Of 1854, as recognized by Mr.. Buchanan
in his letter accepting the Presidential
nomination, and as iudorsed by the peo-
pie of the Territory-that the people of
a Territory, when they come to exercise
their sovereignty in the form alton of a
State Constitution, have the right to
mould the institutions Of the nascent
State to suit themselves but denying
that a Territorial Legislature, the crea-
ture Of Congress, can do what Congress
cannot do, that is, either erect or abolish
the institutions Of slavery within tho
Territory.
The Convention was very harmonious.
This expression of sentiment
will have the effect to harmonic
the Democracy of that State, and
is decided indication of the fact
that the delegates to the Charles
ton Convention from that State
will not assume an attitude of hos
tility to the Southern position of
the confederacy, by indorsing any
thing like the heresy of Ierritori-
al Sovereignty. This is as it
should be; for States in a condition
of helplessness, as regards the
election of Democratic President,
would certainly lose nothing in
public estimation, by retaining
from acts offensive to those who
will have to do the voting.

HO " ITSHOULD BE.
Every place is more or less in
jured by t sc presents of a certain
class of DISSATISFACTION one
might term Fossils. They get to-
gather a stock of goods, ensconco
themselves quietly behind the
counters and wait for customers.
Not making a sale oftencr than
once a week they calculate on
victimizign a customer when they
do get one -Nor advertising, TAX
ing no means to make their bust
ness known for fear Of the expense
they depend wholly upon getting
an occasional customers and bleed
ing him freely. fla farmer has
anything to sell they will if posi-
bic get it for about half what it is
worth, and charge him double its
value for everything he buys
Such men get known finally, at
distance-their prices are supposed
to be those of thu place in which
they live, and in consequence peo-
pie who nave things to sell, or
who wish to buy, try other places,
and thus one such man may do an
infinity Of mischief by diverting
trade into other channels.
We possibly may not have men in
this place quite SO bad as these,
but yet there are not a few who
approximate closely to the char
acter. Spider-like they will sit
patiently for days and weeks in
their dingy, dusty counting rooms,
awaiting the advent Of some luck
less purchaser. Woe to him
when he sets foot in their web!
They are men who never adver-
tise-who never labor to draw
trade to and keep it IN the city
who are utterly regardless of the
future, careless of building up a
trade or reputation
What Dubuque wants land it
has many of them, is live, liberal
dealers-men who look not mere
ly at what they can make to-day
but at the future; who labor in
every possible way to build up
the place, and not merely them
selves. Such men are not as anx-
ious for large profts-they are,
rather, more anxious that the city
should gain the reputatian of pay
ing more for produce, and selling
goods lower than other places,
conscious that whatever builds up
the city, indirectly builds up them.

THE CINCIN.NA TIT PLAT
FORM AND THE CHARLES
TON CONVENTION

/
including Kansas and Nebraska, acting
through thelegally and fairly expressed
will of a majority Of actual residents;
and whenever the number of their in
habitants justi6es it to form Consti-
tuition, with or without domestic slavery,
and be admitted into the Union upon
terms of perfect equality with the 9th
er States"
This resolution of the National
Convention, in 1856, is the Gin
cinnatti platform, and all there
was of the proceedings of that
Convention having any connection
whatever with national politics or
the party issues of the day.
There was, it is true, some high
sounding pledges about the tariff,
and considerable rigmarole in re-
gard to the extension of our influ-
ence in the Gulf of Mexico, ETC.,
but as none Of these things are in
issue before the people, they are
regarded as mere clap-trap or
make-weights, cast in by the
"smart' politicians who always
fancy thy have a prodigious inhu-
ence on the popular mind, until
they find themselves defeated by
them. The resolution we have
given is, we repeat, therefore, the
Cincinnati platform, and as there
has been good deal of discussion
recently in certain quarters in re-
spect to its adoption by the Charles
ton Convention, it is quite proper
that it should be overhauled and
examined, and it's connection with
the great issue before the country,
or its fitness as an exposition of
that issue, made apparent or 9TH
erwise.
That the people of a Territory,
when they adopt State constitu-
ton and enter on the duties of
State sovereignty, should be adj
mitted into the Union with or
without so-called slavery, will be
assented to by nine tenths of the
American people. A small section
of the Rep. party, which holds,
that, to retain negroes in a social
position harmonizing with their
wants and their natural relations
to the governing race, is sinful as
we'll as an evil, will, ofcourse, OBJ
ject to the "principle" thus laid
down in the Cincinnati platform,
but we think it may be assumed
as quite certain and beyond dis
pute that thrce-fourths of the Re-
publican party will admit its per-
feet soundness. If this is so, and
we presume no well-informed per-
son will question it, then it is
equally certain that the resolution
of the platform in question does
not present in its literal or ordi-
nary reading, any principle or any,
thing whatever connected with the
great party issue of the day. But
it is so worded that to those who
desire it there is an implied un-
derstanding that before State
government is organized, the peo-
pie Of a Territory cannot touch
the subject of slavery"
This was universally, and indeed
legitimately, accepted in the South
in the canvass of 1856, and we
New Oregon plaindealer. (New Oregon, Iowa) 1859-1866, 1859-11-25

speech can now be found in that
section admitting o. indicating the
Douglas doctrine of Territorial
sovereignty. On the contrary, the
precisely opposite assumption was
set up in the North, and we ques-
ton Of a single stump speech or
editorial, except what appeared in
this journal, can be produced that
did not directly or by implication
adopt the Douglas doctrine. Nor
was this contradiction and SEEM
ing dishonesty any worse than is
usual among politicians at the
North. There is always, even
among the most candid partizans,
Il certain tendency to exaggcra-
ton, and to take advantage of To-
cal prejudice and selfishness. AT
this moment the Democratic cam
didate for Governor of Massachu-
sets avows himself a tariff man,
and moreover, holds that "slavery"
is a creature of local law, and yet,
doubtless honestly, believes that
his party is a perfect unit on these
and all other subjects.
But there is a still more valid
reason for the contradictory and
even hostile pc sitions of the
two great halves of the Democra-
cy in 1856. The question then.
as now, was not the right of the
people to adopt slavery or ex-
clude ''slavery" when they became
a State, but what was to be the
condition of things prior to that
event, and during the Territorial
regime. That, we repeat, was the
real question then as it is now.
and has been for ten years past.
and must continue to be the ques.
ton until it is truly understood
and settled, not by the politicians
but by the millions, orit splits as
under the two great sections, OF
the Republic. The legal aspect
of the question must first be dec;-
ded by the Judiciary, and as the
bred Scott case had not yet been
presented, the whole subject was
in doubt and darkness in 1856,
and therefore it was natural
enough, perhaps, that the politi-
clans should take advantage of
such state of things, Indeed
Mr.. Douglas himself, always pro
vided for a safe and comfortable
retreat, in his reports ON the Ne
braska Bill and speeches, though
by some strange alteration of in
tellect he has failed to avail HIM
self of their advantages. He con-
stantly declared that the people
of the Territories could make
their own laws, &C., subject only
to the Constitution of the United
States, and as the sole interpreters
of that constitution have decided
in the bred Scott case that they
could not exclude "slave' proper
ty, Mr.. Douglas should have end
ed his nonsense about popular
sovereignty the instant that decis-
ion was announced. It is more
than folly, however, it is absolute
faulty, to expect that the people,
the great common sense masses
who are ignorant of legal niceties
and care absolutely nothing for
legal distractions when their con-

We assert, and defy contradiction, that
he can carry the entire South, the Pa
cifc slope, and as many Northern S.a-
tes as any man in the Union. In fine,
Daniel S. Dickinson is the strongest
man in the Democratic party, and we
will want all our strength in the coming
contest. We know him to be the choice
and preference of the entire South, and
Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and New

If it be urged he cannot carry New
