WHALE misunderstanding oil out of stone
coal was thing to be thought of as a miracle
that might some day convert the heather: but
to get shoe leather from the skin of whale is
so reasonable probability, that one is amazed
il should not have been long ago attempted A
Frenchman has obtained a patent for whale
leather, and remarkably plant stuff it is. The
skin is so thick that, after removing the inner
portion. which is spongy, the remainder is split
to make 1t of the usual shoe thickness tits re-
markably tough. but as soft as buckskin, and it
repels water well. The Yankee boot is most
miserable; .he leather is spoiled by bad tam
ming and worse working up. This makes an un
fair relation between supply and consumption,
which it will need all the whales of the ocean
to equalize- The discovery comes at a time
when land leather is growing alarmingly scarce;
and We behold in it beautiful provision OF
Providence, only excelled by discovery of coal
oil at Juncture still more critical in the history
OF human progress.-Sc,entifc American.

Regular Democratic Platform.

The following is the Platform adopted by the
National Democratic Convention at Charleston
Resolped, That we, the Democracy of the
Union in Convention assembled, hereby declare
our affirmation of the resolutions unanimously
adopted and declared platform of princi-
pies by the Democratic Convention at Cincin-
natl in the year 1886, believing that Democratic
principles are Interchangeable in their nature
when applied to the same sui ject matter, and
we recommend as our only further resolutions
the following.
That inasmuch as differences of opinion exist
| in the Democratic party as to the nature and
extent of the powers ofa Territorial Legislature,
| and as to the powers and duties of Congress,
under the Constitution of the United States,
over the institution Of slavery within the Terri
tories: ~ -
Resolued, That the Democratic party will
abide by the decision of the Supreme Court of
the United States over the institution of slavery
within the Territories. xs'
Resolped, That it is the duty of the United
States TO afford ample and complete protection
to all its citizens, at home or abroad, and wheth-
er native or foreign born.
Resolved That one of the necessities of the
age, in military, commercial and postal point
Of view, is speedy communication between the
Atlantic and Pacific States, and the p9mocratic
party piedge Sucn CONSTITUTIONAL enactment as
will insure the construction of railroad to the
Pacific coast at the earliest practicable period.
RESOLVED, That the Democratic party are in
favor of the acquisitionsof the Island of Cuba,
on such terms as shall be honorable to ourselves
and just to Spain.
Resolred, That the enactments of State Legis-
latures to defeat the faithful execution Of the
Fugitive Slave Law hostile in character,
subversive of the constitution and revolutionary
in their effect.
At Baltimore the Convention adopted this
additional resolution, making it also a part of
the regular Platform:
Resolred, That it is in accordance with tho
Cincinnati platform, that during the existence
of Territorial Governments, the measures of re-
striction, whatever the may be, imposed by the
Federal Constitution on the power of the Terri
torial Legislature, over the subject of the do
mestic relations, as the same has been, or shall
hereafter be, finally determined by the Supre. ne
Court of the United States, should be respected
by all good citizens and enforced with prompt
ness and fidelity by every branch of the Gen
eral Government.

That's So Too.

The Stockton Argus says the following lines
written by young lady of that city, were no
penned for publication, but were intended as
reparte to similar lines which appeared in tn
Argus of the oath ult:
Some bachelors waste their precious time,
That's so, that's So
In railing at women, in silly rhyme,
That's SO, too.
Of eItravagant girls they prate and whine,
That's SO, that's so;
But cling to horses, and clubs, and wine,
That's so, too.
They call themselves toe poor to wed,
That's SO, that's so;
But the poverty lies in heart and head
That's SO, too.
At church they ogle the prettiest belle,
That's so, that's 80;
Her face and her yfathers Thousands tell"
That's SO, too.
All female vanity they d,plore,
That's so, that's so;
But they primp at mirrors behind the door,
That's so, too.
Paints, powder, and fashion they decry,
That's so, that's so
But when grey hairs come the dear men-dye!
That's so, too
Some for wives catch butterflies,
That's so, that's so
But IL takes the ,cise to ,rin the ,rise,
That's so, too.
Mems troubles, and money, end in smoke!
That's so, that's so;
But woman's patience bears life's yoke,
That's so, too.
A coquetfe fiirts-a coxcomb struts
That's so, that's so;
But if women are hooped, some men are butts,
That's so, too.
True girls decline false mans lot,
That's so, that's so
They won't cast pearls before-you know what
That's so, too.
A good wife proves mans Judgment sound,
That's so, that's so
For like seeks ike" the wide world round,
That's so, too.

WHAT CRITrENDEN TBIsKs OF DouoLAs.-Mr
Crittenden in speech at Louisville on the I'd
ult made the following allusion to Stephen A
Douglas:
| have known Mr. Douglas in the public
councils and have acted with him. Although
generally opposed, and especially upon party
questions, we have at times acted together, and
particularly upon momentous occasion,
when we acted together in opposition to that in
famous Lecompton Const tuition. TDeafening
applause. Mr.. Douglas was there making a
great sacrifice to his sense of duty. [Applause.
He was sacrificing his connection with many old
political friends; he was breaking up the rela-
tions of a long political life he was sacrificing
prospects for the highest Office of the Govern
ment as good as any man in the country had I
fully believe he did what he conceived to be his
duty and in defiance ofall opposition the rack
of the President, offended friends, and open
foes, he acted like man. Tremendous cheer
ing He might have been mistaken in what he
did but did that little diminish the value of the
act? He thought he was right, and he knew be
was making a sacrifice, and he was capable of
making it, when he believed the interests of his
country demanded it, | can have no quarrel
with him be is Union man. (Cheers) And
a Union man can always trust, when believe
HIM to be sincere and earnest, rs | believe
Douglas to be. Continued applause

Our Sentinn ents.

From that most interesting of all the San
Francisco daily papers-the EUening Mirror
we quote the annexed article, and give it our
fill and hearty endorsement. The treatment
bestowed upon the rough but gallant old war
horse, Harney, at the instance of the British
Government, is a disgrace to the Administration,
to Mr.. Buchanan, to Gen. Scott and to the
American people. Here is the Mirrors article :
The Pony Express brought the unwelcome
intelligence that Gen. Harney had reported him
self to the Secretary of War, and been relieved
of his command of the Northern Department 1t
was further stated that he would probably be
court -martialed for the responsibility he assumed
in taking possession Of the Island of San Juan.
Our right to the disputed territory, although
still made the subject of diplomatic treatment,
IS conceded by every honest statesman in Great
Bltain; yet, in Difference TO English vanity and
sbluster, our Government meanly sacrifices the
hard earned laurels of one of its most faithful
servants, and condemns him to the humiliation
of court-martial for act which it secretly
approves. 1t. Gen. Winfield Scott is great
man-probably the most competent military
leader of either hemisphere. The nation is
proud of his fhme-proud to have such a man
at the neau OF lts armies yeL tee glory OF posi-
tion and the prestige of great deeds do not give
him the right to tamper with the reputation of
soldier scarcely less than peer to him in every
military qualification, and by no means his in-
ferior as man. Gen. SCOTS action in this
matter has been unworthy of him, and it is the
duty of those who so view it to tell him so Un-
der the hypocritical plea that his advice was
required by the War Department, Gen. Harney
was called to Washington to be insulted, reliev-
ed Of his command and court -martialed. Such
conduct is disgraceful, and can receive nothing
but condemnation from every right-thinking
man whose prejudices do not blind him to the
feelings of justice and magnanimity. Gen. Har-
ney-the old war-horse of the North-has grown
grey in his country's service, and has stood
faithful seLtinel on its frontiers until the savages
have learned TO tremble at the mention of his
name. Tell US not that republics are ungrate-
ful. The old veteran has been rewarded at last.
His forty years of eamp-life and privation have
received the recognition of Government, and he
is to be disgraced, at the request of England and
Lit. Gen. Winfield Scott, for doing what he es-
teemed to be one Of the plainest duties of his
life

Popular Sovereignty.

The plausibility, says the Sacramento Post,
OF the doctrine of popular sovereignty, was
never better portrayed than in the following
from Douglas speech, delivered at Concord
New Hampshire, July 3lst. 1t is in homely
phrase, but it will reach the hearts of the mass
es far more effectively than any elaborate dis
QUESTION upon constitutional points. After re-
viewing the Kansas matter pretty thoroughly,
be said
q think the New Hampshire boy, who moves
to the West when he is 20 years ofage, is just
as capable of self-government as the brother
that remains behind. Just cast your eyes round
this neighborhood. and find an old gentleman
who had two sons The one was an ambitious,
restless, energetic, daring boy; the other was
an amiable, kind, lazy, good fellow. Which of
these boys do you think went out West2 Which
stayed at home and lived with daddy and man.
my Laughter. The bold and ambitious
young fellow went out and dug up the prairie
or in the wilderness be carved out his own for
tune made his own farm, put up his own fences,
and perhapsspht his own rails. Laughter and
cheers. He cultivated his own fields, erected
school house and church-yes, and made his
own cabinet work, too. By that time, | reckon
the wild boy had sown his wild oats pretty well,
aud was fully as capable of self-government as
the one who stayed here and acted under father
and mothers advice. And what more? Very
likely that young fellow, after be had made a
home for himself in the West, found himself a
little lonesome and concluded TO come back and
see the old people. If he did ten to one that he
puts his eye on the prettiest girl that could be
found in the neighborhood, and took her out
West with him, thus taking away from the old
New England States not only the smartest boy,
but the prettiest gi,l in the district Laughter
aud cheers. Now, are you going to tell me
that such people are not capable of self-govern-
meut, merely because they live in Territory =?
L'Not we | hold that every political COM
muniiy, State and Territory alike, has, under
our system of government, the right to govern
itself ia N things that are local and domestic,
and not Federal And what is more, Mr. Bu-
chnnan thought in 1856. Mr.. Breckenridge
also thought SO in 1856. The Republicans all
thought so, when they voted for the Crittenden
b.. the Lecompton controversy"

John was oneea resident Of the State OF Iowa
He came TO the city Of Burlington soon after the
organization OF the Territory, and entered the
hist OF attorneys at law at the Des Moines Bar
and was in fact but a third rate lawyer among
the men Of his own age; whilst Judge Rorer, H.

engaged upon side of nearly every case in

ice, was low third on the list of practitioners
and during bis stay in this State he failed to
engage in single suit to which he can refer as
me source OF any distinction whatever And,
although John stayed in Iowa for goodly time,
