licans can wish. SAMUEL j. KIRKwooD,
the nominee for Governor, has no super
ior, in capacity or popularity, in the
State. He has served with distinction
in the State Senate, is well CONVEX
SAINT with State affairs, is a man of judy
ment and of honesty, a splendid speaker,
and will carry the State by larger ma
jorily than any Republican governor that
has gone before him.
For Lieutenant Governor, the conven-
ton did equally we'll. NICHOLAS j.
RUscH is German by birth, but for a
number of years has resided in Iowa.
He is one of the largest farmers in the
State, possesses a gentlemanly, pleasing,
intelligent exterior, commands the larg-
est respect wherever known, is an able,
eloquent speaker, fully conversant with
our institutions, and has represented Scott
County in our State Senate for several
years. He is of the CARL SCHURz school
of men-men who are using the vast in
huence their talents have given them
over their countrymen, for tie latter's
elevation-for the incubation Of a know
ledge and love of our institutions. They
are men who hate tyranny and love lib
erty, and are never SO false to humanity
as to lend aid or countenance to the cause
of human slavery. Mr.. RUscH will do
credit to the Republican cause.
For Judges of the Supreme Court, the
convention have presented the names OF
RALPH p. LOWE, l.. D. STOCKTON, and
CALEB BALDWIN. The first gentle.
man is our present able state executive
He was for a number Of years Judge Of
the first Judicial District, and gave, in
that position, the same universal salts.
faction that he has more recently as Gov
ernor L. d. STOCKTON is at present or
the Supreme Bench, and has made +;
most acceptable judge. CALEB BALD
WIN is resident of Council Bluffs, anc
is one of the most popular men on th(
Missouri slope. OF his legal abilities W,
know nothing, but from the favor will
which his name was received in the con
vention, we have no doubt that his DUAL
ifications for the position are all that th,
people can ask.
The platform, too, is just what every
Republican would have it-there is no
thing that we would have subtracted. |

The decision expressly affirms that
Congress has no power to pass laws i'm
pairing the rights of persons and of pro-
perty, and here says that as the consttu-
ton recognizes property in slaves, Con-
gress has no right to draw distinction
between this and other property, end
that no tribunal acting under the author
ity of the United States, can do so. The
points in the decision, then, as we un-
derstand them, are, briefly, that the ter
ritories are held in trust by Congress for
the use and benefit of the people of all
the states, and that what the constitution
recognizes as property cannot be pro-
hbited therein that the constitution
recognizes slaves as property. and that
to exclude them would be to exclude a
portion Of the people of the states from
their benefits in the said territories that
Congress has no power thus to impair a
right of property, and that it cannot,
therefore, delegate such power; that
the territorial government. being simply
a creature of Congress. has no more pow
er than its creator, to abolish slavery in
the territory, and that it cannot DENY to
slave property. any more than to other
all the provisions and guaran-
tees necessary for the protection of pri-
yate property. How, then, we ask, can
slavery be prohibited in territory under
this decision 1t cannot be done. There
is no tribunal that can be erected IN
competent for this purpose. The

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.

aGr Mr. JOHN MILLER who was nomiu-

candidate for Legislative lonors, declines
to accept.
This unexpected determination on the
part of Mr.. MILLER, which is greatly re.
GREETED by his hosts Of friends, creates a
vacancy upon the ticket to supply which
the call of the Executive Committee is
published this week.
To avoid the trouble Of holding Ward
meetings all over the Parish, the call is
made for the same Delegates to return
that were sent BY their respective Wards
to the Parish Convention held in this
place on goth inst, leaving to any Ward
that may see proper, the privilege Of
changing her Delegates, on Saturday 10th
September. Any Ward not taking the
trouble to elect other Delegates will be
considered as wishing her. former ones to
act.
Notwithstanding the Delegates selected
by the various Wards on 18th inst, met
in Convention on Goth, discharged the
duties assigned them and adjourned sine
die, yet it is considered cminently proper
that the same Delegates should re-assem-
ble-unless any Precincts should desire
to send others--fur the purpose Of doing
part of the same work assigned them then

See the name is changed from american
Party to Opposition Party, but the keen
eyes of Democrats cannot fail to see the
cloyen foot. 1t is the same Know Moth
ing Partyin all its hideous deformity, as
suming the empty generality Of !" Oppo-
sition,' that includes everything sand
means nothing save Sam.isul.
The Opposition i'll the various Parishes
are working to win. When they think it
will serve their purposes to have Conyen-
tons, they have them, and eloquently and
pathetically urge upon their members to
lay aside personal preferences and rally
as one man to the support Of their nomi-
.nees but where they know it will be
useless to hold Conventions and make
regular nominations, they resort to de-
crying, and attempting to throw ridicnle
upon, the Convention system. They call
upon freemen,' independent voters
to come out from the clique arrange
ments," to cast OFF the shackies OF party
with which they have beer bound down
for years, and stand up Ike men, and
assert their rights as American citizens
and vote for the man of their choice, re-
CARELESS Of the choice of the packed Con.
yentions." Thus they talk in places where
they are in a hopeless minority.
Democrats, it is our duty, and our
pleasure, as a journalist, thus to expose
their deceit, their political hypocrisy, aud
their double dealing. In one portion OF
the State they blow hot, in another they
blow cold, just as policy, NOT principle,
dictates to them.

A BROAD PLATFoRM.-Milton S. Latham,
the nominee of the Lecompton State Conven
ton for Governor, declared in his speech, ac-
cepting the nomination, that he was ain ia
vor of popular sovereignty as laid down in
the Compromise Measures of ls54"-that he
was also "in favor Of non-intervention"-
that he stood "by the Cincinnati Platform, {"
and "by the Administration of James Blu.
chanan.' How he can be in favor of non
Intervention, popular sovereignty and the
Cincinnati Platform, and still stand by the
Administration of James Buchanan, which is
opposed to all, is a mystery only to be solved
by Lecomptonite The fact is that he
stands by anything that will suit the times.
To popular sovereignty men, he will preach
popular sovereignty; to non-interventionists,
nonintervention; to Cincinnati Patformists
according to their construction of 1.-THE
Cincinnati Platform; and to James Buchan-
antics, James Buchanan Most Proteus.like
