DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

The Phtsburg Post, the leading Democratic
newspaper in Western Pennsylvania, believing
'that. the victorysof the party depends uponper-
sistenee and3a sound policy, makes the following
suggestions.as as to thefnture course of the Democ-
racy in relation to the issues presented: Z
81. 10 ignore dead issues, but never abate Gin
gle principle.
2. A firm reliance in the Constitution, and a
restoration of its vital functions where they have
been impaired by Radical legislation.
8. Equal taxation the strctest maintenance OF
the public faith; O common currency for the whole
people, founded upon q sound and reliable basis !;
placing the public debt upon the basis demanded
by justice and sound financial policy; the creation
of o public revenue founded upon just principles,
and the abolition of present lniquitoas ana op-
pressive revenue laws.
f. The protection of industry against the op-
pressions of moncyed monopoly.
S. A reduction of Office holders, and conse-
quent cessation of the present extravagant e1pen-
ditures of the general, we'll as State and NUM-
cipal governments.
g. reduction Of taxes, and adequate legisla-
tion to compel the holders of the public indebted
ness to bear their proper share OF the burdens OF
sustaining the Government.
Z. A just and equitable system Of representation
in Congress, by which the New England States
shall not be allowed disproportionate number Of
Representative and Senator's, and the West shall
receive its just proportion
8. The restoration of the States to IN equal
footing in the Union, and the abrogation of ell
test oaths and disfranchising enactments either
by Congress or so-called Slate Legislatures or
Conventions. free government, maintained and
perpetuated by free ballot
g. strict definition. according to the letter and
spirit of the Constitution, Of the powers, rights
ond duties of each of the three coordinate
branches of the Government confning each with
in its proper sphere, and repressing each in its
aggressions upon the other.
The Post is of the opinion that on such line
of policy as is here indicated there would be re-
eruits enough from the liberal and conservative
wing of the Republican party to insure majority
in the lower House of the next Congress, and ul-
timately to accomplish the overthrow Of the Radi-
cal party.

IMM1onAT1oN.-Th following letter from Gen
eral John A.. Wagner, covering one from Mr..
Hendricks, the general freight and ticket agent Of
the South Carolina Railroad, shows the progress
now making towards directing the stream of Euro,
pean immigration to our shores. General Wage
ner is working hard in the good cause, and we
trust that his efforts will he seconded in the way
that he suggests:
To the Editor of the News:
Through the kind e1erlions of Mr.. L. c. Hen.
dricks general freight and ticket agent South Car
olina Railroad, the very acceptable and important
arrangement, which his enclosed letter explains,
has been effected, thus rendering Charleston, as
port of entry, cheaper connection of the great
West than any other Atlantic city.

and people generally to give this fac. the utmost
publicity, wherever, in Europe or elsewhere their
correspondence may extend. 1t twill have its inau,
ence after awhile. Respectfully yours,

How 1T WAS DoNE.-Hon. John Quincy Adams
delivered an address before the Constitutional
Club" of Boston on the 22nd of February. AL
luding to proposition made in the Massachusetts
Legislature, q few days before, to fire hundred
guns on Boston Common in honor of the passage
of the Fifteenth Amendment, Mr.. Adams said:
81 was only sorry that was not in the Legsla-
ture to propose, as an amendment to it, that the
United States be humbly solicited to allow the
State of Massachusetts to fire that salute from
Fort Warren, and that the guns might be shotted,
in order to show the process by which the amend
ment had been carried"

E@r We commend the following sensible para
graph from the Chcraw Democrat to our farming
friends:
..If the present decline in the price of cotton
will have the effect of causing the planters to plant
more corn, it will be fortunate for the country.
We doubt the prosperity Of any farmer who has
his bread to buy at any price. Certain it is that
the price of cotton is too precarious that man
should expend all the labor of year, relying up
on it alone for the years supply of breadstufs.
We have not heard of any one yet who, if he can
eat cotton seed himself, will be willing to feed his
family, or even attempt 10 fatten his stock on it.
The old rule of making sure of bread and then
planting whatever else the farmer might choose is
decidedly the best, and it will have great effect
in bringing up the price Of cotton, too"

THE DEMocRATIe MEMBERS OF THE LEsrs-
.IATURE

The Charleston Daily Republican has often ex-
biSited virtuous indignation against the Demo
cratic press Of this Statesin regard to the whole
sale charges made by the latter Of bribery and
corruption among the Radical members Of the
Legislature. 1t has repeatedly asked that these
charges be made in definite manner, and has
urged that o single instance of corrupt End un-
faithful practice be pointed out. Its columns
have been freely used in denunciation OF Demo-
cratic newspapers for making wholesale charges OF
this character, without substantiating them Win
ADEQUATE proof that such things existed among
the Radical members. And yet we find this teach
er of s.great moral ideas" sending forth similar
charge against the Democratic members OF the
Legislature, without adducng single proof or
designating solitary member who is guilty of
improper conduct. In reviewing the work of that
body, ste see how they have administered upon
the trusts reposed in them by the people" the Re
publican uses the following unequivocal language:
ave have the strongest testimony that nearly ev-
cry Democratic member of the General Assembly
sold their votes in the most roteny corrupt way"
As tothe charge, we are confident that it is false
and malicious in every particular. But we have
no desire to screen any member of The Democratic
party by simple denial and therefore call upon
the Republican, to introduce its strongest testmo-
ny" before the public, in order that the people
may know show they (the Democratic members)
have administered upon the trusts reposed in
them" In all fairness, that journal is compelled
to establish its broad allegation, as otherwise it
will stand convicted Of making an ine1cusablc ac-
cusation against political opponents, purely for
political effect. -
In the same article from which We have quoted,
the Republican says that eve cannot shut our eyes
to the fact that there were men in that General
Assembly who were corrupt" and acknowledges
that some of its own party "went down before
temptation" Hence, it cannot be replied that the
Democratic newspapers have failed to establish
bribery and corruption, for here is frank ad-
mission from the Radical organ that these charges
were true.
In behalf of the Democratic party, it is demau-
ded that this reckless charge against its members
be proven. Failure to do this will stigmatize its
author as slanderer of the viest nature, an un-
worthy member of the newspaper fraternity, and
partisan of the baser sort.
