cisely a. they had done before. only taking
care not b indulge in anything to excess.
Every one cannee do that, hewsser, md 4

Fruits should b eaten sparingly. and only
when pssfectly ripe and sound. Melons ass
intsrdicted. Salt meats are healthy, but
should not be eaten in large quantities. Eat
oil the good bread you can, and an in With
crackers, but don't drink too much ice water,
Fresh fish is prescribed. Don't starvs your.
self, but eat moderately snd sleep with

Pennsylvania Democratic Plat
form ...

The following is the Platform adopted by
the Democracy of Pennsylvania at their
recent State Convention: ....r
WHEREAS, The Democracy of PennSyl-
vanir, in Convention met, recognizing a
crisis in the affairs of the Republic, and es-
teeming the immediate restoration of the
Union paramount to al other issues, do re-
solve: u 2 r
l. ResD7ra1, That the States wherenf the
people were lately in rebellion, are integral
parts of the Union, and are entitled to rep
resentation in Congress by men duly elected,
who bear true faith to the Constitution and
laws, and in order to vindicate the maxim
that there should be no taxation without
repre- sentation. if there are any such Rep
rescntatives, they should he forthwith ad-
mtted. -rr . .'.
2. That the faith of the Republic is
pledged to the payment OF the national
debt, and that Congress should pass all laws
necessary for that purpose. ...
8. That VIC owe obrdiance to the Consti-
tuition OF the United States, including the
amendment prohibiting slavery. and under
its provisions will accord to those cinancipa-
ed all their rights of person and property
4. Tha' each State has the exclusive right
to regulate the qualifications OF its own
electors.
s. That the white race alone is entit ID to
the control Of the Government of the Re-
public, and that we are unwilling to grant to
negroes the right to vote. , .-ss.v.
E. That the bold enunciations of the prn.
ciples OF the Constitution and the policy of
Restoration contained in the recent veto
message of President johnson, entitlc him
to the confidence and support of all who re-
spect the Constitution and love their coun.
try.
7. That the nation owes to the brave men
of our armies and navy debt of lasting
gratitude for their heroic services in defense
of the Constitution and the Union, and that
while we cherish with tender affection the
memories of the fallen, we pledge to their
widows and orphans the nations care and
protection. ..-. ....
8. That we urge upon Congress the duty
of equalizing the bou1ties of our soldiers
and sailors. ,.,.-

A Significant ConfessIon.

Il has long been a matter OF wonder how
il is ;ha; the siI New England States, with
aD aggregate population no greater than that
Of the single State of New Yo:k, exert 80
large a control over the policy and legisla-
iiOn Of the Federal Government. Possibly
some light on this subject may be gathered
tem that part Of Senator Summers recent
speech in Congress, wherein he treats Of
the proposed change in the basis of Con-
grcssional representation. He remarks:
1T is said that New England will lose
something because she has great number
o. beautiful women and children more than
she has men. That is true; but | ask you
Ar. President, yourself distinguished rep
resentative from New England, where the
men who represent these women? They
are the best blood of your country who go
westward, aud there coon give tone to sOci-
ely, and come back here tn represent them
selves and the mothers and ssters and kin
dred they left behind. New England is at
this moment ont only represented by her
twelve Senator, but by six or eight more,
who are sons of New England, who moved
to the West, and carried with them their
religion, their principles, AMI, in some cases,
their wives; or, where they did not, we pro
vided wives Tor them. They came back
here as Senators, and now stand here to vote
New England ideas and New England prin-
ciples. ~
Here is confession says the Cleveland
ITdm Dedttr of much significance from the
mouth of a Republican Senator, who is il
position to know the truth of what h
testifes. 1t is nothing less than the broaC
avnwal that Senators of New England birth
elected to Congress from the States of the
West, 10 to that body, not to represent tn,
great interests Of the Union, or of the sec
tion from which they were chosen, but 'tc
vote New England ideas and New England
principles. ~ What Senator Sherman herr
says, is undoubtedly true in reference Il
Western Congressman of his own party; bu
how wildly opposite was the course of Doug
las and all other Democratic Congressmer
of New England extraction! Without hos
tility to the region of their nativity, they
recognize it highea duty to represent tn,
communities by which they were elected
and to vote United States views and princi
Pics, instead Of elinging to the selfish AM
| lro2criptive theories of New England dog
, mntists. -u.. ...

1HE age Of bastiles ard guiiutines has
passed, bHI there Is a deSpotism in Con
greSs y Infatuated a. that which eanse'l
France to weep tears Of blood. The major
i;y Of the House oi Representatives has in-
vested Committee Of Fifteen with pow
ers, which under the guidance Of Jacobin
Chairman, Is becoming as odlOus as any
triumvirate created BY despOtism.
The above is from the New York Times
edited by Henry J, Raymond, Republican
member of Congress, That Committee Of
Fifteen, or Central Directory, as the Presi-
dent ofthe United States terms it, is com
plete revolutionary body, whose whole pro
eeeding are for the overthrow of the Gov

AlIeghenx Cattle Market.
TUESDAY, March Ia

TUESDAY, March IA, 1866.
CATTLE--The receipts of cattle at these
yards this week, were larger than for sever
al weeks past, reaching about one thousand
head and az general thing they were much
better in point OF qqality and condition than
usual. The market, however, was regard
ed as very hard one by droyers, the sup
ply being largely in excess of the demand,
and the attendance of eastern buyers was
very meagre; and, VIII le there is no essen
tiri change to note in prices, as compared
with last week, it shou be borne in mind,
that the cattle Were of much better quality
than usual, and as a matter of course, cost
more in the west. We heard of one of the
regular dealers having bought and sold sew
eral car loads, upon which he realized apro-
tt'of about one d0har per cor, and of 9TH
ers, who brought cattle here from Chicago,
and sold in advance of about fJtg cents per
hedd. This is certainly doing business on a
small margin. through it must be confessed,
that it is not as bad as selling out at a. loss
Prime to extra fat cattle such as our best
butchers are in the habit Of buying, sold at
from 7 to II, while common to medium
grades may be qusted at 81. Barney Gray
shipped two or three car loads to Baltimore;
" lAuuu bWO CdT tOdNS 10 ItIla-
delphia; Myers a. Bro about three car
loads to Baltimore, and Morgan & Maholm
shipped fitty-one head to New York.
SHEEP-The demand is a little more ac-
tive, and with but limited supply on sale,
the market ruled a shade frmer than last
week, and p1ices fraction higher prime
to extra fat mutton Sheep retailing at from
ct to cents, gross. II. A. Merrick sold
40 head of extra, to Andy Ackley averag-
one hundred and fftg pounds, on private
terms; Riley sold Huffman Ga head, weigh
ing 7l2o lbs, at 81; Hashhouser sold Hines
l45 head at 81. ~ E"
HoGs--Demand for Hogs continues very
light, and the market is dull and neglected,
while prices have undergone no material
change from OF to lot, gross, in q retail
way. ao ~1 fYN ga

Calling Oh Mr. Senator COvvan
10 Resign.

Because Mr.. Cowan, U. S. Senator from
Pennsylvania, sustains the President in bis
veto of the Freedmen's Bureau Bill, the
Union State Convention have resolved that
the Hon. Edgar Cowan, Senator from Penn
sylvania, by his course in the Senate of the
United States, has disappointed the hopes
and forfeited the confidence of those to
whom he owes his place, and that he is
hereby most earnestly requested to resign.
This Convention also resolved that they cor
daily approved the action of the Union
members of Congress from Pennsylvania,
all of whom are meek and lowly followers
Of Thad. Stevens. The Cleveland Leader
in.commenting on the resolution in reference
to President johnson takes the correc.
view. 1t says "the. resolution wears the
mask of praise" but is in reality condem-
nation of the policy of Mr.. johnson. 1t is
clearly evident that the Union party of
Pennsylvania is not in accord with the Pres
ident, and that its patchwork platform can
not save it from defeat in October next.

The late Rev. William Barnes, of Phila

The late Rev. William Barnes, of Phila-
delphia, was asecccntric as he was eloquent,
and although ready witted and seldom en-
barressed by any of his surroundings, there
was one occasion in which he came out of a
word conflict second best. One evening,
while Mr.. Barnes was preaching to crowd
ed house in the suburbs of the city, young
woman who was sitting in the gallery, near
the pulpit end of the church, arose and
slowly made her way toward the door, ap-
parently in indignation at some remark in
the sermon. The preacher stopped sudden
ly, and fixed his eye upon her until she came
round to the head of the staircase opposite
the pulpit, where all could destinctly see
both parties--the offended sinner and the
offending divine--when he called out in his
shrill voice to her, "Good night, daughter
Of the devi!' The young woman with the
greatest dignity imaginable for such an ec.
casion, turned toward him, bowed politely
and said, loud enough for all the congrega-
ton to bear, Good night, father" Itwas
dangerous experiment for. the minister,
and because he contended with worldly wea-
pons, was worsted beyond complaint or
remedy. 81"
