Platform Of the Democratic
Party.

The Democratic Conservative
party of the State of Louisiana, in
assembled, proclaim
the following as their platform:
1. Resolved, That We accept
and acquiesce in the Fifteenth
Amendment to the Constitution
of the United States in good faith.
2. That the excessive taxation
imposed by the Radical party in
their last legislatures threatens
ruin and bankruptcy to the means
and credit of the State, aud it is
the duty of all good citizens to
unite in protecting the State
against the reckless waste of the
public money, and we pledge our
selves to an economical and hon.
est administration of the govern
ment; to use our power to have a
law passed limiting the power of
the State, parish and municipal
corporations on the subject of
taxation.
. 8. That general amnesty re-
moving all past disabilities should
be adopted.
4. That all useless offices should
be abolished.
5. That all laws creating mo-
nopolies, and granting to individ-
uals and interpretations exclusive
rights and privileges, should be
repealed.
6. That our citizens ..of foreign
birth are entitled to the same
rights and privileges as those
born on the soil, and all laws dis
eliminating between them and
requiring from them extraordina-
nary oaths and other evidences
of citizenship are odious, insulting
and oppressive, and ought to be
repealed.
Z. That we pledge ourselves to
use our best efforts to secure to
the whole people a fair, quiet and
peaceable election.

WHAT HORACE GREELEY SAYS ABOUT II.
Mr.. Greeley, referring 10 the mania which
possesses Eastern people to move West
under the mistaken impression that they
will be better of remarks that when his
father was over sixty years old, AMI had
lived some twenty years in Erie County.
Pennsylvania, he said TO him: Il have
several times removed, and always towards
the West | shall never do 80 again but.
we're 10 do so, II would be towards the
Last. Experience mas taught me that the
advantages of every section are counter
balanced by disadvantages. and that where
any crop is easily produced, there it sells
low. and sometimes cannot be sold at all
shall live and die right here; but were
to remove again it wonld not be toward,
the West" We regard this as sound and
sensible. and worthy of serious consider
alton.
