Regular Democratic Platform.

The following is the Platform adopted by the
National Democratic Convention at Charleston
Resoiued, That we, the Democracy Of the
Union in Convention assembled, hereby declare
our affirmation of the resolutions unanimouslv
adopted and declared as a platform of nrinc;.
Piles by the Democratic Convention at Cincin-
natl in the year 1856, believing that Democratic
principles are unchangeable in their nature
when applied to the same su: 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 offs 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:
Resolped, 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.
Resolued, 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.
ResolUed, That one of the necessities o: the
age, in a military. commercial and postal point
of view, is speedy communication between the
Atlantic and Pacific States and the Democratic
party pledge such constitutional enactment as
will insure the construction of railroad to the
Pacific coast at the earliest practicable period
Resoired That the Democratic party are in
favor Of the acquisition of the Islsnd of Cuba
on such terms 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 are hostile in character
subrersivc of the constitution and revolutionary
in their effect.
At Baltimore the Convention adopted this
additional resolution, making it also part o
the regular Platform:
ResoIged, That it is in accordance with th.
Cincinnati platform, that during the existenc,
of Territorial Governments, the measures of re
striction, whatever the may be, imposed by thu
Federal Constitution on the power of the Terri
tora Legislature, over the subject of the do
mestic relations, as the same has been, or shall
hereafter be, finally determined by the Supre =
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.

The ALABAMA DELEGATION AND ~. B.p-Tbe
Baltimore correspondent of the Cincinnati Time,
tells the following:
rather good joke is in circulation concern
ing President Buchanan. A delegation from
Alabama called at the White House on Friday
and being ushered into the presence of the Sage
Of Wheatland, !he proceeded to furnish them
with Il lecture on the peculiar course they should
adopt in the Convention, to all of which they
listened with the greatest interest. At the con-
clusion OF which he asked them " if any of them
had the honor of an acquaintance with the For
sythe delegates" they being the delegates chosen
IN place OF the seceders by called Convention
of twenty eight counties
"Oh, yes, Mr.. Buchanan, I am one of the For
sythe delegates" said one
" And am another" said his right-hand as
sociate.
" And here is another" said third; and so
on until but one vas left Of the body whom Mr.
Buchanan had mistaken for the reappointed Sc
ceders.
And who are you % said the President
looking at him closely
81 am Nr. Forsythe himself and Mr.. Buchan-
an, we bid you good day" They were escorted
from his presence.

THE SEcEDERs IN GEoRGIA-The St. Louis
Republican says the cause of the seceders is
willing in Georgia. As evidence of this it quotes
the following paragraph from the Augusta (Ga. J
Chronicle and Sentinel:
Consequently the Democratic people are fast
abandoning the seceders' ticket, the residuary
egatee Of all corruption and abominations o:
the present outrageous Administration-the
supple tools of the camp followers and plunder-
ers. In this (Richmond) county, it is said by
those who ought to he posted, that there are
only thirty-two Breckenridge men out of vot-
ing population of near two thousand Gentle
men from Columbia inform us that there are
seven out of eight hundred in that county,
From Lincoln we hear of none In Wilkes
there are goodly number, but they are very
anxious to compromise. The Franklin Demo-
cracy, we learn, are almost unanimous for Doug
las and johnson, and the same news comes also
from Hall and Habersham. The seceders bid
iair IN Georgia, according to present appear
ances, to die out before the first frost
The latest news from Georgia is to the effect
that the Democracy and the Bell and Everett
party of that State have united upon one elect
oral ticket, to be equally of Democrats and Bell
men-fve ard Eve each. In 1851 all parties in
that State united against the seceders, then as
now led on by the avowed disunionist, Yancv,
and beat them twenty thousand votes. The
friends of the Union in other Southern States
will be very apt to follow this example If so
breckenridge will not get single ELECTORAL
vote at the hands of the people. 1t is indisput-
able that Breckenridge is the candidate sup
the South. Hence all friends of the Union in
the South, fthey would preserve it, ought to
combine their strength on one electoral ticket.
The Shasta courier., 1860-08-11

1T WoyT Do.-Some of the Breckenridgers
Douglas and Johnson are not sound Democrats.
Mr. Buchanan says that inasmuch as, in his
opinion, there were regular nominations
made at Baltimore, every Democrat "was left
free to act according to the dictates of his own
judgment and consciencep-that is to say, a Dem
ocrat may vote as he pleases, either for Douglas
or Breckenridge, without having his party fealty
called in question. Thus the great {. king bee
of the Breckenridgers differs from the high-pri-
Yates. When bolters disagree who shall decide :?

pondent OF the Times, "applied for money. the

Tree leave Of speech, pointed out to him where

THE FAMOUS Two-THIED RuLE.-This famou:
rule was adopted for the first time in 1892. We
publish it now SO that the people may see for
themselves that it does not, as the Breckenridge
ers are in the habit of asserting, require num-
Der of votes equal to two-thirds of the entire
electoral college to accomplish nomination
The reader will see that it simply requires "two-
thirds of the whole number of votes in Conren-
tion" to effect n nomination. Hence Gen. Cass,
who had two-thrds of the votes in Convention
was declared nominated in ls4e, although he
received 10 votes less than two-thirds of the
entire ELECTORAL college.
Resolced.-That each State be entitled, in the
nomination to be made of II candidate for the
Vice Presidency, to number of votes equal to
the number that they will be entitled to in the
Electoral College under the new apportionment
in voting for President and Vice President and
that two-thirds of the whole number of votes in
the Convention shall be necessary to constitute a
choice.

An Abolitionist Rebuked.

The dirtiest Abolitionist that ever disgraced
the U. S. Senate-Chas Sumner, of Massachu-
setts-received the following castgation from
Jere Clemens, formerly U. S. Senator from AL
ALBANIA
HUNTSVILLE June l3, 1850.
Ny DEAR SIR : see that Mr.. Sumner in his
late speech, thought proper to pay his respects
to me. He calls me a slave owner, ard quotes
part of my speech in reply to Mr.. Rhett, to
prove that violent and bloody instincts en-
gendered by the relation Of master and slave
1t may surprise Mr.. Sumner to learn that have
never been the owner OF slave. have never
been engaged in any pursuit or avocation in
which slave labor would have been the slightest
benefit to me, aad | have never been able to
buy slaves for the mere purpose of waiting on
| me- There is negro man here with whom
wss raised-one who has lived with me great
deal, and who was with me throughout the
Mexican war, but the title to him was not in me
1t was in my father; and if Mr. Sumner will
ask any of the surviving officers or soldiers of
the Ninth Infantry (all of whom were from New
England) think that they will tell him that it
was matter of some doubt whether | belonged
to the negro or he belonged to me
At all events, if Mr.. Sumner will send here in
one month double the sum that negro would
bring if offered for sale, he could not induce
him to touch it, with condition annexed that
he shoEd live in Massachusetts as a freeman.
Mr. Sumner may find some apology for the Bit
terness of his late speech, in the chastisemen;
inflicted upon him by the lamented Brooks, but
the Ignorance he displays of Southern manners
and Southern society can hardly be accounted
Tor on the same ground If he had passed halt
| the time among us, years ago, which he spen,
among the English Abolitionists, he would have
escaped the Gaming, as well rs the more disgrace
full exhibition he has now made of himself

Bas~ In ls47, after the American army in
Mexico had achieved for themselves a renown
that any people might be proud of, " Old Abe
Lincoln took his seat in the House of Repre-
sentatives. lie soon associated himself with
Corwin, Ashmun, and others, in opposing the
war, and used his influence to throw obstacles
in the way ofits successful prosecution and ter
mination. On the 22d of December, 1871, he
introduced series of resolutions, known as his
g s feet resolutions" intended to throw the re-
sponsibilty of what he termed an unjust war
upon the President. They are in the following
words:
WHEREAS, This House is desirous to obtain n
full knowledge the facts which go to establish
whether the particular spot on which the blood
of our citizens was shed, was or was not at that
time own soil therefore
Resoired, By the House of Representatives.
that the Presiden. of the United States be re-
spectfuly requested to inform this House
lst Whether the spot on which the blood of
our citizens was shed, as in his message de-
clared, was or was not within the territory of
Spain at least after the treaty of 1919, until the
Mexican revolution.
Cd. Whether the spot is or is not within the
territory which was wrested from Spain by the
| revolutionary government of Mexico.
3D.. Whether that spot is or is not within a
settlement of people, which settlement has er-
isted ecer since before the Texas revolution, and
until its inhabitants fed before the approach of
the United States army.
SO far as we know, old Abe never succeeded
in ascerlaining whether the spot upon which the
first fighting of the Mexican war occurred, was
American territory or not One thing is very
certain, however, if lie did not succeed in "spot-
ting the locality referred to, the people of the
United States have spotted his abolitiorism
