THE VIRGINIA PLATFORM.

The following resolution was adopted on Sat.
urday in the Virginia Convention, being the
eighth of series reported by its Committee on
Federal Relations:
"The people Of Virginia recognise the Amer.
ican principle that government is founded in
the consent of the governed, and the right Of
the people of the several States of this Gnion
for Just causes, to withdraw from their associa.
ton under the Federal Government with the
people Of other States, and to erect new Gov
ernments for their better security, and they will
never consent that the Federal power, which is
in part their power, shall be exerted for the pur.
pose of subjugatng the people Of such States
to the Federal authority"
This is so worded that, upon the literal con-
struction, it will command universal assent.
The right of the people to change their Gov
ernment, for "just causes will hardly be de.

A CHARMING PROSPECT-MR. BRECK
lNRIDGE

MIR. Breckinridge made speech q week ago
at Frankfort, before the Kentucky Legislature,
in which he advocated border slave State
Convention, and the presentation to the North,
Is an ultimatum, of the Crittenden proposition,
mot emasculated," but to apply to all future
acquired territory. Mr.. Breckenridge did not
intimate, however, that he should advise Ken
tucky to remain in the Union, if this ultima.
tum should be accepted, small as the chance Of
its acceptance is. Quite the contrary. Whether
this remarkably modest ultimatum is accepted
or rejected, Mr.. Breckenridge is still for seces-
sion, "unless the cotton States can be brought
back into the told." At all events, according to
this Democratic candidate for the Presidency,
the South must keep together, and if the Gulf
States will not return, the border States must
60 out with them. This is really the view OF
all the secessionists in the border States and it
is merely by way Of blind, that they propose
compromises and conferences. A dozen Crit
tenden platforms would leave them Just as dis
satisfied with the Union as they are now, un-
less the Gulf States can be brought back by
such platforms, as notoriously they cannot be.
The Gulf States have seeded, not upon any
grievance connected with slavery, but upon
nullifying theories Of tariffs and free trade, and
upon an overweening notion Of the importance
and value and power of q certain material Of
textile fabrics, known as cotton. They have
gone out Of the Union, upon the theory of Sen.
stor Wigfall, that they could collect revenue
of fifty millions per annum upon the returns for
this crop, with which revenue they could have
fleets, armies, and magnificent establishments
Of all sorts, which would make the leaders the
envy and admiration of mankind. 1t was upon
such theories, upon which these men have
been feeding their arrogance for generation,
that the Gulf States seeded, and they will
come back, not when the Crittenden PROPOSE
tion is agreed to, but when their lfconceit
has been taken out Of them, and they are able
to see themselves, as others have long seen them,
as race Of swaggerers, without money, with
out credit, with no accumulation of capital,
with no thrifty industry, and with no capacity
for, or elements of sound, stable, and indie.
