THE LIBERAL PLATFORM.

We, the Liberal Party of tho State
of Louisiana in Convention assembled
hereby proclaim and adopt the fol-
lowing as our platform of principles,
essential to the redemption of our be-
loved State from the evils of misrov-
ernment, and tending to the rcstora
sion OF just, wise and patriotic rule,
the vindication of the rights of the
sovereign people.
]. we recognize the platform of the
Cincinnati Convention of the Liberal
Republicans, as ratified and indorsed
by the National Democratic Conven-
ton, as eminently judicious and repre-
senting the sympathies and needs of
our State and country, and we recog-
njze in the national standard bearers
of the great Peoples Party, Horace
Greeley and Benjamin Gratz Brown,
men of sterling worth, capable of res.
toring the government to the simplici-
ty and purity of its earlier years, when
Washington, Adams and Jefferson were
guardians of our liberties. We there
fore pledge them our undivided and
earnest support.
2. We recognize the political and
civil rights of all men, and pledge our
selves to maintain them, and we in
rite all men, without regard to past
political differences, to unite with us
in our honest effort to accomplish such
salutary reforms as are now or may be
demanded by tie people.
3. We demand that our State gov
eminent shall be administered Justly
and economically; and to that end we
pledge ourselves to the abolition of
useless Offices, the reduction of exorbi-
tant salaries of officials, the early re-
demptiou of the legal obligations of the
State and the reduction of taxation as
speedily as possible.
4. We demand that laws shall be
enacted for the punishment of bribery,
and that the powers of the executive
TO diminished, being inconsistent with
republican, institutions, and subversive
Of the wishes of the people.
S Recognizing public education as
an imperative necessity and guardian
Of our liberties, we pledge ourselves 70
maintain generous and benefcent
free school system, which shall be ex-
tended to every portion of the State,
and embrace in its privileges the chill
dren of all classes, and we shall de-
mand strict economy and perform
ance of duty on the part of school Off

70 The origin of the term STOOL
soap" has doubtless puzzled many
writer's who use the paper known
by that name, and yet, as in many
similar cases, it took it's name from
very simple circumstance.
Charles l. of England, granted
numerous monopolies for the sup
port of the Government. Among
others was the manufacture of pa.
Der. The water-mark of the finest
SORT was the royal arms of England.
] he consumption of this article was
great, and large fortunes were made
10y those who purchased the excIu-.
slve right to vend it. This, among
lnOnOpolies, was set aside by the
Parliament that brought Charles
l to the scaffold; and by wa, of
showing their contempt for the
king they ordered the royal arms
10 be taken from the paper and
fool with his cap and bells to be
substituted. 1t is now over 200
years rince the foolscap was taken
from the paper, but still the paper
of the size which the Rump Parlia-
mcnt ordered for their journals
bears the name of the water-mark
placed there as an indignity to
Charles.

RAT PROOF Corn CRIB.-A CORES
pendent If the Cincinnati Gazstte.
says he arranges a crib as follows to
make it rat proof:
Let his four corner posts be eight
inches square; frame the stills which
are to support the floor of the corn
crib into the post at distance of two
feet from the lower end. Before put
ting the frame together. taper the
lower ends of the posts for the dis
lance of two feet, so that at tue very
base the posts shall be only four inches
square. Now when the frame is set
up, let these posts also stand on ia
pereds rocks. II the CRIB needs more
than those four posts to bear up the
corn that will be put into it, make legs
like the lower portions of these posts.
and set these legs under the sil|s. Now
lay the joists or sleepers on the sil!s,
and put on the floor, making the latter
light, and which will be about three
feet from the ground. Have the door
made tight, and keep it shut, and no
rats will get into your crib.

Col. Blanton Duncan, Louisville, Ky:
On my return from the canvass OF
the western part of the State, l find
your letter of the 22d, which, with this
communication, l give to the public.
/ am panied to think that You have
imagined anything in my character
giving you the hope that, even under
the guise of an assumed confidential
communication, You would be encour-
aged to propose to me the commission
of political aud inexcusable infamy.
You will remember that once, when
you deemed your own Eouor assailed,
yon called upon me as your trusted ad-
wiser to aid you in indicating it, and
that you then expressed to me- the
warmest affection for the manner in
which had aided YOU. What | have
done since to forfeit your confidence
and esteem is painful but unanswer-
able question to me.
l can not permit you, under the mash
OF confidence, to offer me this wanton
insult and permit it to go unrebuked.
l do not agree with you in your prog
nostications that Mr.. Greeley will be
defeated, but We're convinced beyond
doubt that snch would be the case !
should, in redemption of my pledge,
made in every speech to the people of
kentucky duriug this canvass, and in
rindlca,ion of my own integrity, cast
my vote for him in the electoral COL
lege. In voting for hlr. Greeley l do
not regard the man. but | redeem the
honorable pledge l have given to the
noble body of gentlemen who stand
with me on the platform of principles
he comes before the country with-tbat
l shall be true and loyal to them in
victory or defeat.
Both your life and mine should have
taught you the lesson that honorable
men do not abandon principles because
disaster and opposition surround their
advocacy.
] have accepted the principles pro-
by the Cincinnati aud Balti-
more Conventions as best for the inter
ests of the country, and with the same
devotion you have seen me manifest in
The past in cause dear to US both | I
shall stand there, even if among the I
thousands now protesting them stand

Horrible Attempt at al Execution
in Feejee.

| The first attempt in Feejee to carry
a capital sentence into effect caused
one Of the most terrible incidents in
the annals of public executions. The
Feejee Times furnishes us the follow
ing account: "a horyible and brutali-
zlng scene was witnessed Tuesday
morning. by the attempted execution of
the man Franks, for the murder of
Thomas Muir, on board the Marion
Rennie. He was to have been hanged
on Monday, the 9th, but gross mis-
carriage OF justice was allowed. The
time appointed came and went for the
simple reason that it did not suit the
private convenience of the sheriff.
The poor wretch, who had by antici.
patton suffered the horrors of death.
was then left in all the narrowing un-
certainty of his fate from hour to hour.
until late in the evening, when lie was
informed that he must be hanged in
the morning at o'clock. Every prem
aration was made the previous night,
the rope fixed and the moose adjusted.
Rain fell, however, and wetted the
rope, very thick one, and in the
morning it had to be dried before a
fire. The rope was again fixed, the
culprIt, and hangman were on the
scatfold, and before slipping the moose
over.the criminals head the hangn,an
had to sit down and place one of his
feet in and phil with all his might to
make the knot run. Then, after
placing it over Franks head, he had
the utmost difficulty in making it fit.
Then the draw fell, and when the rope
frightened, with low, dull thud,
Franks was apparently dead for about
three minutes, when his limbs began
to move. He gave several groans ard
spoke, praying those around him to
put him out of his misery, and let him
meet his Maker in peace. Then, being
improperly pinioned, he raised one
arm, and got hold of the rope, and so
partly relieved himself from the fear
tul strain upon his neck. lie still con-
tinued to beg them to put him out of
his misery, telling them he forgaye
them for the black Job they had made
OF it. One of the officials, on the i'm
pnlse Of the moment, raj, ont and cut
the man down, when he fell heavily to
the ground, there not being any at
tempt to catch him i'll the fall. Franks
was then removed to the prison. It's
effect upon the spectators was such
strong men actually tainted
away. The wretched man. after the
terrible ordeal through which he passed,
has been reprieyed. Had another at
tempt being made to hang him, there
would have been a riot. The man has
to all intents and purposes, suffered
the penalty of the Law, having twice
experienced horrors, the like of which
no man can imagine"
