ted by Mr.. Avery, of North Carolina, from
majority of the Committee composed Of one
committee man from each State:
Resolved, That the platform adopted by the
Democratic party at Cincinnati be affirmed,
with the following explanatory resolutions:
First: That the Government OF territory
organized by an act of Congress is provisional
and temporary, and during its existence all cit
izens Of the United States have an equal right
to settle with their property in the Territory,
without their rights either of person or proper
ty, being destroyed or injured by Territorial

"Old Judge McE ean."

The Chase and Seward papers ale vexed at
the use Of Judge McLean's name as competi-
tor for the Chicago nomination. Let alone by
his own party, he would be the most difficult
man whom the Democrats could be called on to
defeat. But his own party don't seem inclined
to leave him alone. They are determined to
save the Democracy any trouble which his nom.
inaton might cause. Hence they are telling
the truth about the old gentleman, and that is
all we ask. The Detroit advertiser, the Seward
organ in Michigan, says:-NeaOark Aa0ocate.
"Marveous as it may seem to men Of sense
and foresight, there seems to be no doubt that
the design is seriously entertained amongst GER
tain intriguing members Of Congress, claiming
to have the good Of the Republican party at
heart, Of Nominating old Judge Mclean at Chi
cago. The nomination OF Mr. Bates would be
even more so. He is admitted to be an anna
BILE, fair minded man of strict integrity, and
great moral worth. But there his merits end
or at least, there end his qualifications for the
Presidency. lie has long since passed the age
allotted to man. His mental vigor and his bod
lily health are greatly impaired. 1t cannot be
that with such materials from which to select
the standard bearer as Seward, Lincoln, Chase,
Fessenden &C., that the Republican Conven.
ton will nominate man SO old, and whose
health is so infrm, that he cannot discharge the
comparatively light labors OF the position he
now occupies.
1--WE need not tell those OF this city WHO
HAVE SEEN HIM SLEEP HOUR AFTER HOUR ON
THE BENCH during the argument of counsel in
most important cases, that he would not long en-
dure the labors, perplexities and anxieties OF
the Presidency. The only two anti-Locoioco
Presidents we have had in the last thirty years
died before their terms had been half served
out and the consequences that followed were
fatal to the party which elected them. Do Re-
publcans wish repititon Of such calami,ies tc
themselves? II we must have candidate

Retarded by Northern Agitation.

The funny little member from the Yellow
Greek District, has been making wndey
speech in Congress, and as usual, all about the
negro-for he knows very little abont anything
else. Even on this snbect, those who are not
acquainted with the gentlemen, would, while
hearing him speek, suspect his proper place to
be in some Lunatic Asylum. His speech is full
Of diSjonted sentences, crude IDEAS and nonsen-
scal fourishes of epithet and rheoric.
Like JOHN SHERMAN, the funny little man as
assume that Mr.. JEFFERSON was opposed to
permitting slavery to spread into the teri
tories. In this he bellies the sage of Montice-
Hermitage when he podded coffin hand bills
upon him. BINGHAM and SHERMAN are both
for bringing back the Government, as they say,
to the views of the sases of the Revolution, and
quote Mr.. j EFFERsoN as being in favor, not on
ly of prventins the extension OF slavery, but OF
favoring emancipation. Yet they most carefully
conceal the mpans recommended by that great
apostle Of Liberty to bring about removal Of
slavery. In a letter to JOHN HOLMES, in 1920
Mr.. JEFFERSON uses this significant language.
"Ofone thing am certain, that as the pas
sage o slaves from one State to another would
not make slave Of a single human being who
would not be so without it, so their diffusion
ouer greater surface would make them individ-
ually happier, and proportionally facilitate the
accomplishment Of their emancipation by divi
bng the burden on greater number Of coadju-
tors.
Now. if Mr.. BINGHAM can torture this doc
trine, written in the latter years Of Mr.. JEFFER-
SONS lie, and with greater experience and ma
turer judgement, as adverse to permitting sla-
very in the Territories, we will concede that he
be. This opinion of Mr.. JEFFERSON cl arly
approves the diffusion oil slaves all over the Ter
tories. in order to tighten the burdens of the
slaveholders and facilitate the accomplishment
OF emancipation. And whenever this states.
man is again o;oted in favor OF congressional
prohibition Of the emigration Of slaves into new
Territories, we hope that this opinion win not
be overlooked.
| But Mr.. BINGHAM complains that there has
been change in public sentiment in Virginia,
and that the project ofemancipation is not SO
favorbly considered there as it was thirty years
ago. This is all very true, not only Of Virginia
but OF Kentuckey, and oil the border slave
States. And it has been the unconstitutional
and reasonable interference OF Northern Abli-
tionists with the rights of the South, that has
produced this reaction. If Virginia had been
left to manage her local institutions In her own
way and to abolish slavery how and when she
pleased, or not at all, as she pleased, the same
as were the New England States, free from out
side interference, we have no doubt that pro.

merchant before the committee, who said:"You

that you had only worked him on an average

circumstances he prayed the House to pass the
SecOnd reading of this bill, and not suffer such
enormities to continue, or permit women and
children to be worked in a way which any
man would pc ashamed to work his horse

1t was facts such as those presented in the
speech of Mr.. RoEBucK, and sustained by Par.

Shame of England" Mr. LESTER went to Eng
land rampant Abolitionist, as delegate to
the Worlds Anti Slavery Convention, but see-
ing the misery caused by the system Of Factory
Slavery, put upon record the fact that if forced
to choose for his children the system Of sla-
very as it existed on the plantations Of the
South or in the English factories, he would
infinitely prefer American to English slavery.
Had such scene S occurred on Southern plan
tation, as that detailed by Mr.. Roebuck-had
slave girls of Is and l6 been forced to work
one half OF the twenty-one hours young girls
were forced to toll at the bleach works at
Bolton, English philanthropy and American
AboIitionism would have been horror struck
at the inhumanity. Yet here we have details,
horrible enough to slcken even the most har-
dened, in the centre of merry England, where
the Sickly sentimentality about slaves had its
origin. One per cent. Of the amount squan-
dered in the agitation Of the slave question in
the United States, if applied by the Duchess
Of Sutherland and other Of the patrons OF A
merica agitation, to mitigating the evils of the
factory slaves in England, would have prevent
ed scenes such as those described in the speech
es in the English Parliament, of which that
OF Mr.. Roebuck is fair sample. When Eng

slavery in the United StaeS.--Nat, Dem.

COTTON.

The burden of Mr.. Wigfalrs speech in the
Senate yesterday, was the supremacy of cotton.
With two hundred and fifty millions Of exports,
the cotton States, in his Judgment, could raise
q revenue which would enable them to defy the
world in arms.
With the monopoly Of a great staple, the cot
ton-State gentlemen feel disposed to treat the
slave States which do not raise cotton, with in.
difference, if not contempt.
This is making breach between the two
classes of States, which is daily widening.
The first impression upon the subject, was,
that the cotton States had the power to coerce
the border States, by refusing to receive their
negroes, and supplying their demand for labor
directly from Africa. But this impression is
yielding to the evidence that the European
Powers will not permit the African slave trade
to be opened.

RESOLUTION DAY.

Yesterday was resolution day in the House,
and numerous propositions were made in refer.
ence to the difficulties of the times, including
propositions of amendment Of the Constitution.
Mr.. Noell, of Missouri, proposed Triumvi-
rate, in place of a President. This is a classic,
if not practical proposition.
Mr.. Cox proposed Federal legislation in
respect to fugtives from justice, as well as fugi.
tives from Slarery. But as this touches the
safety of white men, and not black men, it is
not likely that there will anything be done
about it in a hurry.
Perhaps the most important proposition,
considering the source Of it, was that Of Mr..
Holman, of Indiana, looking to the coercion Of
seeding States. Mr. Holman is Democrat,
and gentleman OF the highest weight Of char
acter. 1t is believed that he represents the
prevailing sentiment of the Northwestern De.
mocracy
