The Party Platforms on the Slavery

Inquiries are frequently made as to the
points of difference respecting the Slavery
question, in the various platforms of the par
ties now entering into a canvassfor the PreSi
dency.
PLATFORM OF TIE CONSTITUTIONAL UNION" CON
vENTIoN AT BALTIMORE, DELL AND EVERETT.
Whereas, experience has demonstrated that
platforms adOpted by the partisan Conventions
of the country have had the effect to mislead
and deceive the people, and at the same time
to widen the political divisions Of the country,
by the creation and encouragement of geo.
graphical and sectional parties therefore
Resolued, That it is both the part of patri-
otism and of duty to recognize no political
principle other than the Constitution Of the

Strange ARair--cattl Supposed to be
Killed py Snakes.

The Rochester Union of the 18th instant
has the following: The people of the south
part Of the neighboring town Of Ogden have
been somewhat excited of late 10 consequence
of what has occurred upon the farm of Ed
ward Griffin, highly respectable and we'll
known citizen. He has lost three heifers on
his farm under circumstances that lead to the
supposition that they were killed by snakes.
The farm of Mr.. Griffin adioins large swamp
near which the dead cattle were found. The on
ly marks to be seen upon the cattle were about
their necks, and there was an appearance of a
cord having been drawn so tightly about the
throat as to produce stranguation. The last
animal that died was found before the carcass
was yet-cod, but no traces of the destroyer
could be seen. The cattle were healthy and
appeared to have fed upon the grass up to the
very moment they were slain. 1t is hardly
probable that they could have been thus de-
stroyed by human hands, and it is not improb-
able that the notion of the people of the
neighborhood is correct-that snakes have at
tackled them Huge black snakes with vel
low rings about the neck, are known to inhabit
this swamp, and they are the most ferocious of
this class of reptiles that are known in this
part of the world. If this mischief was done
by snake it does not follow that it was
very large one. Black snakes five aud even
six feet in length are not unfrequently seen,
and such might easily coil about the neck of
young heifer and destroy life

GOLDEN LINKS OF KINDRED.

Blessed is the home that holds in its midst
enc central magnet. about which throbbing
hearts, Redeemed by the same blood, move with
never failing attraction. When golden links
of kindred, circling that loadstone, are strong
bright and many, who can measure the wealth
Of love that lies within their holy compass p
With every shining fetter added to the pre-
cious round. new interests bind us to sacred
memories of the past; Or sweet associations
of the present new affections bend US earth
ward, towards those who come to make earth
dearer, or lift us heavenward, with those who
ascend to the skies.
The commonest events of life-events of ev-
cry day occurrence to all humanity, send an
electric thrill of pain or pleasure through that
far-reaching chain of kinship, and stirring
sympathetic pulses, draw the bond of union
still closer.
A little child opens its sinless eyes upon the
day-behold another link put forth for tender
lips to kiss into brightness-for loving arms
to welcome-for swelling hearts to give room
for yoiceless benediction to cover.
A youth, or maiden, stretches out hand
within, and 10 another link is clasped, by
wedding riEg, upon the kinbound chain; and
uuptldl &ittS, Guu LeSllfe SdlDtfIuSS oud kot4u
congratulations greet its admission.
The angel of death descends and singles out
: the purest link, and softly bears it TO a home
invisible. Tears of agony must flow, and
griefwrung hearts must ache-but tears tina,
fall from many eyes, weeping together, losc
their bitterness heavy hearts that lean
on one another, find their load of sorrow light

Other less mournfuI partings come some
of the close knit bard must make their home
on foreign sbtres-but ocean cables are less
strong and true than bonds of union that nc
: seas can sever and rapture grows out of the
very pangs of absence, when wanderers return
! with tiny links, hanging like diamond pendants
from their own.
Birth, marriage, death. parting, meeting
these are but trite and every day events, yet
throngh the golden links of kindred they send
current of emotion that stirs many hearts,
and makes epoches in many lives o, keep
the links pure and bright, however long the
chain, and burdens of sorrow will be lessened
because shared, and sources of joy will swell
in humber, because they reach as far as blood
extends

From Texas.

ST. LOUIS, 25.-An extra from the Bonhanl
(Texas) Era office, dated the 18th inst, was
received here tonight. The overland mail
contains letter from Chas. R. Pryor, editor
Of the Dallas Herald, stating that the fire in
that place, on the 9Th inst, led to the discov-
cry of diabolical plan to devastate the whole
of Northern Texas. White men, friends of
the abolition preachers, Blunt and NICK inney,
who were expelled from the country last year,
were the instigators of the plot The plan
was to lay the whole country waste by fire, de-
stroying all arms, ammuni ton, &c, to get the
country in a state of helplessness. and then on
the election day in August to make a gener-
al insurrection, aided by emissaries from the
North, and parties friendly to the cause in
Texas. Their sphere of operations was dis
tricted and sub-districted, each division being
under the supervision of a white man, who
controlled the. negroes as subordinates. Sew
eral white men and negroes have been arrested
at Dallas.
The following fires are reported TO have oc-
Cured the same day Dallas was destroyed,
and were attributed to the same cause: A large
mercantile house at Black Jack Grove, loss
$50, 900; three business houses at Denton, loss
100000 store house at Pilot Point, loss
ST. 90 a store house at Ladonia, loss $25,-
600; eight stores at Beknap, loss not given;
Milford, Ellis county. totally destroyed: aud
several smaller fires. Great excitement exist
ed throughout the country, and prompt and
effective measures are being taken to protect
life and property.
