AFTERN00N SESSION

ANOTHER PLATFORM PREsENTED--rHE DEBATE RESUMED.
CHARLESTON, April 27.-The Convention reassembled
at o'clock, the attendance OF spectators being very
large.
Mr. Bayard of Delaware, presented another series OF
resolutions, with the following provisions
Frst-Atrming the Cincinnati platform. Second
That Territorial Governments are provisional aud tempo
ary, and that during their existence all the citizens Of
the United States have equally right to settle in Ter
Jory without their rights either in person or proprety
being destroyed impaired by Congressional or Terri
oral legislation Third-That il is the duty OF the Gov
eminent TO protect the rights Of person property
the high seas, in the Territories wherever else its
stitutonal authority extends. Fourth-That when set
tiers in the Territories have adequate population form
State Constitution, the right of sovereignty commences
being consummated by admission into the Union they
stand upon an equal footing with the citizens OF other
States and that State thus organized is to be admitted
into the Union, slavery or no slavery.
Mr.. Barksdale OF Mississippi, proceeded to deliver
violent Southern speech. lie declared that when the
Democratic party dies the Constitution will Gle with it
that if it fails in its duty now, it will be more thor
oughly dead than if defeated at the polls.
Governor King, Of Missouri addressed the Convention
in favor of harmony and Cancellation. The delegates
from his State here instructed do the best that
could be done for the Democratic party The majority
report has sting OF death in it. and he should for
the minority report a substitute. All the people want
is the Cincinnati platform, without any tail to it.
He spoke of the Black Repub lieans men who are
about sharp as men usually are, and said they would
ridcue their majority platform Janus-aced and con-
Trajectory. So far Missouri is concerned they can
carry it clogged with this deadly sting they al
ways go it blind for the Democratic nominee. But he
could plainly see that his border neighbors would be
destroyed by its venom.
Mr.. King alluded in the course of his argument to the
distinguished statesman OF Illinois, (Mr Douglas and
each time he was greeted with deafening applause
The Northern Democracy, he said had been sticken
down because il stood by the South and now they have
the taunt thrown at them that they promise their
electoral votes to the nomiaee with any certainty. This
majority platform would nominate Mr. Seward and would
make him the President
If few Southern States abandon this Convention its
nominee will gain State for State from the North for
every such secession They would regret that they
should leave but they must stand by the ship to the last
The Democrats of the lth will fe that they whip
ped before the bate is gun if you force this platform
upon them. fU1
