The Democratic Platform.

We invite the attention of oul
readers to the resolutions-published
in this issue of the Repu6lican-re
Gently introduced into the United
States Senate by Mr.. Davis, of Miss
issippi, and which passed that body or
the oath ult., by the following party
vote. The adoption of these resolu-
tions will prove cruel blow to the
handful of democrats in this sec.
ton, who still believe or effect to be.
lieve that the doctrine of the sover.
eignty of the people of the Territories
has any chance of being sustained by
their party. The following is the vote
on the passage of the resolutions:
YEAS-Messrs. Benjamin, BigIer,
Bragg, Bright, Brown, Chestnut, Clay,
Clingman, Crittenden, Davis, Fitzpat-
rick, Green, Gwin, Hammond, Hemp
hill, Hunter, Iverson, johnson of Ar
kansas, Johnson of Tennessee, Ken
nedy, Lane, Latham, Mallory, Mason,
Nicholson, Pearce, Polk, Powell, Rice,
Sebastin, Slidell, Thompson, Toombs,
Wigfall, and Yulee-35.
NAYS-Messrs. Bingham, Chand-
Ter, Clark, Collamer, Dixon, Doolittle,
Fessenden, Foot, Foster, Grimes, Hale,
Hamlin, Harlin, King, Pugh, Simmons,
Sumner, Ten Eyck, Trumbull, Wade,
and Wilson-21.
From the above vote, it will be seen
that every democrat in the Senate ex-
cept Pugh, of Ohio, voted for the res
olutions and every Republican, against
them. Mr.. Douglas was not present !;
he was sick with sore throat, as he
has often been before when any dan
gerous jobs were on hand in the SEN
ate. Had he been present he would
hardly have supported the resolutions
he might, possibly, not have opposed
them. Had he voted against them he
would have widened the breach be-
tween himself and the South had he
voted for the resolutions, his Northern
supporters would have opened their
eyes to the Righteousness of his charac-
ter. But, seriously, what chance is
there that the people of the Territories
will be allowed to exercise control over
the subject of Slavery, within their
limits, with a party in power whose
leaders, in the Senate, almost unani-
mously, pass resolutions for the purpose
of defining their principles, like those
we have published? None at all and
the democracy know it; but they
have SO little honesty, and are so
wretchedly depraved, that they are
ready to sell themselves to any project,
however infamous, that shall encourage
them to hope for a continuation of
party power.

The Homestead Bill.

This just and benefcient measure,
again meets the fate Of Caesar in the
Senate, and has fallen covered with the
stabs inflicted by Democrats. Blu: one
voted in favor of the Bill, Mr.. Rice of
Minnesota, Senator Douglas being alb
sent by reason of an attack of bron-
chitis. All the rest, twenty in
number, were arrayed against the
measure. Thus it is once more con-
signed to the tomb, from whence it
will not be resurrected, until the peo-
pie shall place the Government in
hands where it will be honestly adj
ministered for the good of the people.
The Administration is too much en-
gagged in schemes of its own Just now,
to allow free men to have free homes.
upon the prairies of the West. The
bold plunderers of the public Treasury
must be further pampered and fed
while the "mud stills" are required to
labor-and to wait.
But the time ,oiH come when the
poor man shall have home granted
him as reward for his toll, and that
consummation will be reached, under a
REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION.

but on line nearly east and west, and
from one to two miles south, the des-
truction seems complete. In one FAM
lily of le persons / just learn 2 escaped
alive. In another family all were
killed, except an infant which was car
ried into an adjoining lot and found by
its crying. The city is shrouded in
universal gloom.
On the whole line of the tornado
scarcely piece of furniture can be
found. Cattle were killed and the
feathers blown from turkeys, chickens,
&c.
The tornado was in the torn Of .
whirlwind, funnel-shape, and carried
pieces of furniture upw ards of miles.
1t is impossible as yet to estimate
the loss Of life and damage, which is
immense.

States respectively on entering into
the constitutional compact which
formed the Union, and are manifest
breach of faith and a violation of the
most solemn obligations.
8. Resoloed, That the Union of these
States rests OF the equality of rights
and privileges among its members, and
it is especially the duty of the Senate.
which represents the States in their
Sovereign capacity, to resist all at.
tempts to discriminate, either in rela.
ton to person or property, SO as in the
Territories-which are the common
possession of the United States-to
give advantages to the citizens of one
State which are not equally assured to
those of every other State.
4. Resolved, That neither Congress
nor Territorial Legislature, whether
by direct legislation or legislation of
an unfriendly character, possesses the
power to annul or impair the constitu-
tional right of any citizen of the
United States to take his slave proper
ty into the common Territories, and
there hold and enjoy the same while
the Territorial condition remains.
5. Resolved, That if experience
should at any time prove that the ju-
dietary and executive authority do not
possess the means to insure adequate
protection to constitutional rights in a
Territory, and if Territorial govern
ment should fail or refuse to provide
the necessary remedies for that pur-
pose, it will be the dnty of Congress to
supply such deficiency.
6. Resoloed, That the inhabitants
of Territory of the United States,
when they rightfully form constitu-
ton to be admitted as State into the
Union, may then, for the first time,
like the people of State when FORM
ing new constitution, decide for them
selves whether slavery, as domestic
institution, shall be maintained or pro-
hibited within their jurisdiction; and
if Congress admit them as State,
they shall be received into the Union
with or without slavery, as their con-
stitution may prescribe at the time of
their admission"
Z. Resolued, That the provision of
the constitution for the rendition of fu-
gitives from service or labor, without
the adoption of which the Union could
not have been formed" and the laws
of 1898 and 1850, which were enacted
so as to secure its execution, and the
IN hin feafurac of which haino similar
bear the impress of nearly seventy
years of sanction by the highest judi
cial authority, should be honestly and
faithfully observed and maintained by
all who enjoy the benefits of our COM
pact of Union, and that all acts of in
dividuals or of State Legislatures to
defeat the purpose or nullify the re-
quirements of that provision, and the
laws made in pursuance of it, are hos
tile in character, subversive Of the con-
stitution, and revolutionary in their

~ Any of our readers afflicted
with ScRoFULA or Scrofulous COM
plants, will do we'll to read the re-
marks in our advertising columns res
pecting it. But little of the nature Of
this disorder has been known by the
people, and the clear expositip of it
there given, will prove acceptable and
useful. We have long admired the
searching and able manner in which
DIR. AVER treats every subject he
touches; whatever has his attention
at all, has a great deal of it, he masters
what be undertakes, and no one who
has particle of feeling for his afflicted
fellow man, can look with indifference
upon his labors for the sick. Read
what he says of Scrofula, and see in
how few words and how clearly he
tells us more than we all have known

Mr.. McKinney.

The State Treasurer has published a
letter of four columns in length of the
Detroit advertiser, in vindication and
explanation of his course in the mat
ter of the Sault Canal loan. We do
not observe that he throws much light
upon it, beyond what has been already
made public. His statement of the
facts are pretty much as they have been
heretofore understood; but he justifies
the course he took in permitting Hazel
ton q Co., to retain $50, 900 of the loan,
upon the necessities of the Canal, and
the impossibility of getting what he
did receive, on any other terms. All
this, however improper his conclusions
may be deemed, might be regarded as
no worse than an error Of judgment /;
bat we do not find that Mr.. Mckinney
explains, or makes any allusion to, his
representation to the other members of
the State Administration upon his re-
turn from New York, that he had got
all the money for the Bonds, nor &C
count for his permitting those officers
to remain under the supposition that it
was in the State Treasury, until they
the contrary for themselves,
at the annual examination of his ac-
counts and balance in the Treasury.
A large portion of his letter is de-
voted to personal attack upon the
Auditor General, the Commissioner of
the Land Office, and the Secretary of
State; but we fail to discover anything
indicating official maIfeasance on the
part of any one of these gentlemen.
and it is reasonable inference, from
the tone of Mr.. McKinney's remarks,
4 # he knew of aught against them
that score, he would have no hesi-

The Democratic Platform on the Slavery
Question:.

The Davis resolutions as they passed
the Senate by strict party vote, are
as follows. Mr.. Douglas was not pres
ent. These resolutions " i'll be the basis
of the Richmond Convention.
l. Resolced, That in the adoption of
the federal constitution, the States
adopting the same acted severally as
free and independent sovereignties,
delegating a portion of their powers to
be exercised by the federal government
for the increased security of each
against dangers, domestic as well as
foreign, and that any intermedling by
any one or more States, or by combi-
nation of their citizens, with the do
nestle institutions of the others, on
any pretext, whether political, moral or
religious, with the view to their dis
turbance or subversion, in violation of
the constitution, insulting TO the States
so interferred with, endangers their do
nestle peace and tranquility-objects
for which the constitution was formed
and by necessary consequences
serves to weaken and destroy the Union
itself.
2. Resolved, That negro slavery, as
it exists in fifteen States of this. Union,
composes an important portion of their
domestic institutions, inherited from
their ancestors and existing at the
adoption of the constitution, by which
it is recognized as constituting an i'm
portant element of superintendent of
powers among the, States, and that no
change of opinion or feeling on the part
of the non-slave-holding States of the
Union, in relation to this institution,
can justify them or their citizens in
open or covert attacks thereon, with
a view to its overthrow; and all such
attacks are in manifest violation of the
mutual and solemn pledge to protect
and defend each other, given by the

Garibaldi's Expedition.--Critical Posi-
ton of Affairs in Europe.
This great revolutionary leader is
again attracting the attention of the
world, being at present engaged in the
most hazardous of his Enterprises
life or death struggle with the Neapol-
itan Government. The late intelligence
from Europe informs us that he landed
at Marsali, in Sicily, with about 1000
followers, and was Immediately at
tackled by the royal troops. 1t is said
that one of his steamers has been sunk
and the other captured; but if he sue
ceeded in landing his artillery and am
munition, it is probable that the loss of
his transports will not interfere with
his operations. AS he has made no ar
engagements for retreat, his motto is
"Onward, to death or glory" Carl
baldi possesses much sagacity, and it is
not likely that he undertook this des-
perate enterprise without ascertaining
the sentiments of Victor Emanuel and
Napoleon Ill, and as both these SOW
ereigns favor the expulsion of the Bour-
bons from the thrown of Naples and
the annexation of that Kingdom to the
italian, Confederation, it is possible
that they may have encouraged the pre-
sent expedition. tbs certain that there
cannot be true freedom in Italy while
one of the infamous Bourbons wields a
sceptre, or controls dungeon, on that
Peninsula, and if the patriots are sue
cessfulin the Island of Sicily. the Straits
of Messina are too narrow to prevent
the flame of Liberty from reaching the
main land.
The marriage of the cousin of the
Emperor of the French to the daugh-
ter of the King of Sardinia foreshad-
owed coming events, for this alliance
indicated that the old Napoleonic pol
icy of attaching all Italy to the inter-
ests of France was not abandoned. If
the expedition in support of Garibaldi
is permitted to join him, the power of
the King of Naples will be overthrow,
unless events occur for which the pub
lic-is totally unprepared. Russia is
favorable to the present dynasty of Ma
pies, because the late King Ferdinand
refused supplies of corn to the Allies
during the Crimean War, and Alexan-
der the II. may lend his aid in the hour
of reed to put down revolution in the
Neapolitan dominions, especially as by
doing so, he would be thwarting the
designs of Victor Emanuel. However
this may be, it is certain that Russia is
collecting large numbers of transports
at Nicholaof, Crimean port, which,
since the dismantling of Sevastapoi, is
her principal naval station in the Black
Sea and its tributaries. 1t may be said
that Russia is bound by treaty not to
enlarge her fleet, and that the guns of
the Dardanelles are MORALLY pointed
against her. This is true, but the most
solemn treaties have been violated with
by the Emperor of France, land
this is good precedent for the Gar of
Russia to NEEDLE in the affairs of Turkey
or Naples. Great events are looming
in the distance. We will watch their
development with anxiety.

The day after his nomination, one
of his young ball playing companions
met him, and after the usual congrat-
ulations said to him: "Well Mr.. Lin

idential ticket, but l still think can
beat you playing ball." "I,o;W try a

The first news of the nomination re.
ceived in this City, was dispatch d.

it was handed to him, he read it as
quietly as if it contained no unusual an
Douncement, and then started for home,
saying as he did so, 81 guess Mrs. Lin
coin would like to read this" But it
was long time before he could get
through the streets, for the news of
his nomination had spread like wildfre
all over the City, and it really seemed
as if the entire population had come
out to shake hands with the future
President. Already he is beginning to
be overrun with visitors, some of whom
