AusrlS September G.--Thc following
are the leading points Of the platform
adopted by tho
DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION.
After the usual proliminaries the con.
vention ,congratula ate the people of Texas
on the repeal of many of the odious and
oppressive acts passed by the radical leg
islsture. Among others the militia and
police bills the enabling act; the regis.
traton and election acts the acts reIa
ting 10 public schools, whereby public
officers were allowed to speculate in school
books, school furniture, etc, and furnished
high salaries to useless number of officers.
They proclaim that when the Democratic
party comes into power they will admin
ister the government in the interest of and
! for tho beneh, OF the whole people, aud
not Of n party, and however
much they may have been
provoked to hostile and retaliatory temp
,ation by ou,rages committed on them by
the Radical legislature and state govern
ment, it will be part of their great
measure to rise superior to thier just re.
sentiment and administer the good IN such
a manner that the citizens, of whatever
political relation, nationality or color,
shall feel that he is really protected in his
life terty aud property and that tho
Democratic party ,atirms the opinions and
policy it has ever pursued that it is the
duty of the state to maintain an efficient
| system Of common schools 10 insure the
means Of common education to every
child in the state, and that overy adopted
citizen may enter into the spirit OF perfect
freedom of action in matters of con-
science. The Democracy of Texas declare
it to be their firm conviction that legal in
reference with the moral or social habits
of any class Of citizens of native or for
eign birth, is contrary to sound policy OF
genuine Democracy, and TO the enlighs
en.cd spirit of the age.

REMARKABLE EscApE.--On Satur.
day, the 10th of May, Jefferson Caldwell, Of Cur.
wensvillc, was landed with crew of raftmen at
the White House, above Midilctown. At about
eleven o'clock at night II commenced TO thunder
pretty sharp, and he got up and went outside the
shanty to see that all was right. Upon returning
to the shanty, and just as he was entering the
door, be was struck by lightning and knocked
down. The crew in the shanty hearing the noise
got up and found him insensiblc. Those in the
,hanty felt ne effects of the lightning. while the
hands on an adjoining raft were sensibly shocked.
Mr.. Caldwell being well drsnehed with water and
his limbs constantly rubbed revived in about an
hour after he was struck and on Tuesday follow
ing was able to reach his home, although scriously
injured. An investig cation in the morning showed
that the lightning had struck little hemlock
which had been placed on the shanty by boring
hole in the roof, pointing the tree and sticking
1t in, and when the electric charge struck the roof
portion Of II ran along the roof TO the stove
pipe, tearing pipe and stove to pieces and passing
into the timber while another streak passed down
the end OF the shanty, where Mr.. Caldwell was
standing, with his left hand braecd against the
upper corner Of the entrance. The lightning ran
down his icft arm and side TO the hiP, and there
crossed over his body and down the right leg
rufiing and burning the skin in Its course This
was wonderful escape, and another remarkable
feature is that those who were lying by the side Of
the stove which was torn to pieces never felt the
shock. But the boys declare the shanty was full
Of smoke and birthstone.
