TO THE
INDIANA PUBLIC.

BELL AND EVERETT PLATFORM.

Whereas experience has demonstrated that
platforms adopted by the partisan Conventions
Of the country have had the effect to mislead
and deceive the people, and at the same time
to widen the political divisions of the country,
by the creation and encouragement Of geograph.
ical and sectional parties therefore,
Resolued, That it is both the part of patriot.
ism and of duty to recognise no political prin.
ciple other than the Constitution Of the country,
the union of the States, and the enforcement
of the laws; and that as representatives of the
Constitutional Union men of the country, in
National Convention assembled, we hereby
pledge ourselves to maintain, protect, and de.
iend, separately and untedly, these great prin.
cples Of public liberty and national safety
against all enemies, at home and abroad, be.
lieving thereby peace may once more be re.
stored to the country, the just rights of the
people and of the States re.established, and the
Government again placed in that condition of
justice, fraternity, and equality, which, under
the example and Constitution of our fathers,
has solemny bound every citizen of the United
States to maintain more perfect union, estab.
lish justice, insure domestic tranquility, pro.
vide for the common defence, promote the gen.
eral welfare, and secure the blessings of lber.
ty to ourselves and our posterity.

PROSPECTUS of the National Republican.

Believing that the time has arrived when the
great Republican party OF The United States ought
to be fairly represented in the daily press of the
National Metropolis we have embarked In the
enterprise of supplying the citizens of the District
of Columbia with daily publication, under the
title of the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN"
In its political department, this journal will
advocate and defend the principles OF the Repub-
lican party, and endeavor TO disabuse the public
mind Of groundless p,ejudices which have been
engendered against IL, by the false accusations
Of its enemies. Having the utmost confidence
that the administration Of Mr.. Lincoln will be
such as to merit our appreciation, we expect to
yield It cordial, but not q servle support In
the great issue that is likely to be made with his
administration, by the enemies Of the Republican
party, the people Of Washington AMI the District
Of Columbia have more at stake than the people
of any other portion Of our common country. We
believe that to support Mr.. Lincoln's administra-
ton will be synony nous with maintaining the in
tegrity Of the Federal Union against the machin-
atoms of those who would rend It asunder. No
one can doubt upon which side of this issue the
people of Washington will te found when they
come to realize that 1t is fairly forced upon them
We feel confident therefore, that in yielding to
the administration of Mr.. Lincoln cordial sup
port, we shall have the sympathy of an immense
majority of the people of this District and vicn-
ity.
It is not our design, however, to make the
National Republican a mere political paper. We
intend, that as a medium Of general and local
news, shall not be inferior to any other journal
published in this city. We shall pay particular
attention to questions Of local policy, and advo-
cate such reforms as we may deem essential to
the prosperity of the city, and to the advance
ment of the moral and material welfare of its
inhabitants.
We deem 1t unnecessary, however, to multi
ply promises, as the paper viii. Immediately make
its appearance, apd will then speak for itself.
It will be published every morning, and de-
ivered to city subscribers at six cents per week.
Mail subscribers, $3.50 a year, payable in ad-
vance.
The publication Office Is at the corner of Indi-
ana avenue and Second street

DOUGLAS AND JOHNSON PLATFORM

Resolved, That we, the Democracy of the
Union, in Convention assembled, hereby de.
clare our affirmance of the resolutions unani.
mously adopted and declared as a platform of
principles by the Democratic Convention at
Cincinnati, in the year 1856, believing that
Democratic principles are unchangeable in
their nature, when applied to the same subject
matter; and we recommend as the only further
resolutions the following:
Resolved, That it is the duty of the United
States to afford ample and complete protection
to all its citizens, whether at home or abroad,
and whether native or foreign.
Resolped, That one of the necessities of the
age, in a military, commercial, and postal
point of view, is speedy communication be.
tween the Atlantic and Pacific States and
the Democratic party pledge such constitution.
al government aid as will insure the construc-
ton Of o railroad to the Pacific coast at the
earliest practicable period.
Resoiped, That the Democratic party are in
favor Of the acquisition of the island Of Cuba,
on such terms as shall be honorable to our.
selves and just to Spain.
Resolped, That the enactment of State Leg
lslatures to defeat the faithful execution of the
fugitive slave law are hostile in character, sub
verslve of the Constitution, and revolutionary
in their effect.
Resolred, That in accordance with the in.
depreciation of the Cincinnati platform, that,
during the existence of the Territorial Govern
ments, the measure of restriction, whatever it
may be, imposed by the Federal Constitution
on the power of the Territorial Legislature
over the subject of the domestic relations, as
the same has been, or shall hereafter be- finally
determined by the Supreme Court of the Uni.
ted States, should be respected by all good
citizens, and enforced with promptness and
fidelity by every branch of the General Gov.

justment of these imposts as to encourage the de-
velopment of the industrial interests of the whole
country and we commend that policy of nation
al exchanges, which secures to the working men
liberal wages, TO agriculture remunerating prices,
to mechanics and manufacturers an adequate
reward for their skill, labor and enterprise, and
to the nation commercial prosperity and inde-
psndence.
Thirteenth. That we protest against any sale
or alienation to others Of the public lands held
by actual settlers, and against any view Of the
free homestead policy which regards the settlers
~ psupers or supplicants for public bounty; and
we demand the passage by Congress of the com.
plete and satisfactory homestead measure which
hes already passed the House.
Fourteenth. That the Republican party is op-
posed to any change in our naturalization laws,
or any State legislation by which the rights Of
citasenship hitherto accorded to immigrants from
foreign lands shall be abridged or impaired and
In favor OF giving full and efficient protection
TO the rights OF all classes of citizens, whether
nstivo or naturaliEed, both at homo and abroad.
Nt~sth That appropriations by Congress
for river and harbor improvements of nation
al character, required for the accommodation
and security Of an existing commerce, are author
lied by the Constitution and justified by an OBJ
legation of the Government to protect the lives
and property of its citizens.
Sutsenh. That railroad to the Pacific Ocean
N imperatvely demanded by the interests of the
whole country; that the Federal Government
ought to render immediate and efficient aid in
is construction and that as preliminary thereto,
. daily overland mail should be promptly es-
: tablished.
Ssv1stssath. Finally, having thus set forth our
distinctive principles and views, we invite the
oo-epsrstion of all citizens, however differing on
otAsr questions, who substantially agree with us,
IN their afarmsnce and support.

An Officer Of Garibaidi.

We had yesterday the pleasure of meeting
with DIR. BRADFUTR WARWICK, who, as cur
readers are aware, has been serving with
GARIBALpI throughout his late campaign
Wehave rarely been more pleased with rem
contre. DR.. w. is an exceedingly intelligent
young man, and gave US q most interesting
account of his adventures. They are narrated
with great modesty, and without the ieast APP
pearance OF bravado or presumption. Dr
WARWICK Is but about twenty one, and YET
he has already been ia eleven pitched battles
aud innumerable skirmishes. He joined GAR.
lsALDI at Palermo, fought in all his battles
and left him only when he resigned at Capua
Or. w. is Captain In the Sandman service
VICTOR EMAEuEL having adopted the soldiers
OF GARIBALpI. He literally fought his
way up, from common soldier to cap
tain, In six months! That speaks far more
than Capt. WARwICK's modesty allows him 70
say.
Capt. w. is going back TO the pa. war,
which, he says, is sure 10 break out In March.

The Cotton States,

The Convention of Georgia has assembled,
and, before another week, that State will pro-
badly be out Of the Upior. Next week the
Louisiana Convention meets, with like re-
suit. Before the close Of the month, in all
human probability, the United States Will
lose the most magnificent portion of its do
main--those cotton States which have given
employment 10 Its commerce and manuiac-
tories, and paid two.thirds Of the expenses OF
the Government. This Is a melancholy pic
ture to contemplate, bat we fear 1t is now past
remedy. In all probability, as soon as this
separation is completely contaminated, we
shall see such wheeling about from Its anti
Southern position by the English Govern
ment as will make the silly dupes Of English
policy In this country open their eyes in use
less rage and establishment.
