Dtnr Auitrican, The time for the assembling of the National Cuhh reader. Dtmocrailc Convention is so near at hand that I think a foreshadowing of tho Platform to be Adopted will not bo without interest to the readers of the American. We hare two parties here in tbe great National Conservative Democratic party tbe Taoimsry Hall party and the Mozart party, on the Northern and Southern wings, both with headquarter at tbo celebrated Five Pvintt. Some call' themselves tbe Huff man party, some tbe Wood party, and some tho Momyey party. All these, together with thtf Rebel of the South, are to bo united into ono great grand party under the leadership of Jeff. Davis, J. C. IJrcckinridge, Dan Yoorheos, C. L. Vallaudigham, Jno. Morrissey, N. B. Forrest, and the gallant leader of tbe Democratic Rebellion, Maj. Geo. R. C. Lee, Ü. 8. A. War . Democrat, except the Southern branch, are to be left out in the cold. The following are some of the planks foreshadowed, a 1 have gathered them Iroin some of the adroit political wire workers of.thc party: , liivilvid, That the man who drew up tlo Declaration of Independence didn t know what he wa writing about when he undertook fo make the people believe that "all men are cicatcd equal and ei.duwed by their Creator with certain inalienablo right, among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," and ought to nave fekid all YVtiiTK tuen tuatead of ull BMW. , JiiB'ihftt, That we are in favor of a nictuliio liard money currency fur the oäiccholdon of the party, while dirty, uxjrlhL yrtcHback rog will do for tho people. HmU'ctli That we are in favor of the CoDiitution aa it was, and an it is, and aa it i to be for all lime, presout, past and future. J!t$olvfJ, That the late Abolition war WAS a failure, a we tttolicd at Chicago about four years sgo. KetoUed, That uo Abolitionist in entitled to life, liberty, or the pursuit of happine?. JittohrJ, That we believe in no secret political societies, except the Sons of Liherty, Knight of the Golden Circle, the Ku-Klux Klan and the ltlue Roys in White. Jle$nhcJ, That we believe in no nolitical baetilcs except such as were instituted at Salisbury, Helle Isle, Lihby, &o. Jittuhtd, That' pevession and treason are Christian virtue., to be indulged in whenever the Abolitionists rule tbe country, HcsoU'cd, Th -it the late war was gotten up by the Abolitiouiata firing upon Fort Sumter. Jlttofved, That we havo exceeding grewt love for all soldiers except "Liucoln hireling"," and for them too, provided they will vote tlw Democratio ticket. Jic$olvci, Tint marching under the Federal flog ai.'l firing cannon was very popular during i.''0 isle unpleasantness, and therefore wo will u.o the same flag iu our processions, and will also fire caunon on tie getting togcthrr in our great mcetinH during the coming campaign. RnoUtdy That General" Jackson is dend; therefore ve will raiee hc!ory poles and ride in hickory wagons, for thq pur tioae of relcbntiiig the great victotv at New Orleans. v J!ft)lurdt That wl are pctc men in time of war, and uur men iu timo of peace. Ltstiy we resolve that "ltichmond cannot be taken," "Lcc will whip Grant,1' ''the South cannt and ought not to be conquered," "six millions of tuen fi for their liberties never wero and never can be subduod;" (bat "all the Lincoln dogs ought to be killed that "it is the duty of every Itamocrat to kill or cripple an Abolition!!;" that "the country belongs to tho Democratic party," and that "it is their exclusive right and privilege to n Wr riüi it us they see fit, and no Abolitionist has any right to complain;" that "wo adopt and reaffirm these our Ir'.nclples, and aUo the principles of the Centucky aud Yirgiuia resolutions of '93 arid.'99.,r ' "We also adopt tho Declaration ot Independence, Jcfforson's Mitiutl and Old Hickory ai Farewell Address;' and that no nigger should be allowed to vote, except the 15.000 who gullantly voted the Democratio ticket in the State of Georgia; that Georuia niL'uer don't stink, but all others do; that we are now . aud always will be in favor of yutlijicd Hinvmnl suffrage for all oieu except thoso who may happen to be over six feet high, or have a nose over three Inches long, or weigh less ICG pounds, or don't voto the untcratched Democratic tit kit. We are against all banKi. except tbosa.chtrtered by Democratic Legislature; are - for a judicious tariff for revenue; iu favor of tho next wsr, provided we do not Lavo to fiht where tbey tne bullu's, burn powder, eat hard tuck, or camp out at night.

Such, Mr. Editor, are aome of the inklings of the platform that is to be. And I doubt not that your Indiana Democrat who have not beard that Gen, Jackson Is long since deceased, will be seen marching under the stares and stripes, and will bring out their Young Hickory, and will make loud aud long speeches and professions of "loilty" and love for the Union as it was and is to be, and all that, in order to deceive tbe truly loyal and patriotio Iloosiers, and, if possible, get them to vote the Rebel Democratic tioket. Of tbe candidate, to be placed upon this platform I shall, perhaps hereafter have somewhat to say. Tell then, adieu. - H) .

LETTER FROM WASHINGTON. Washington, D. Ü., Jnne 18, C8. Mr. .ViYor', This city has many things in common with all other great cities, and many things uncommon. Just now, and for a few dsys past, we enjoy a Summer beat that burst ou us suddenly after an unusually cold and wet Spring. That is common toother cities. With this sudden change from cold and wet to very hot and dry, the doctors and undertakers' are in tbe enjoyment 'of ''great expectations' and really have entered on their harvest work, This is nothing more than a com mon occurrence in largo cities. We have a fjiejpijffnlly poor system of sanitaryregu"iTuonto ward off t,he approach of dit-euse ndu3uth that is iuvited by stagnant waters, crowded houxes, dirty streets, malarious cellars and back yards, and all other certain sources of ijmotio disesscs. The saving provision against the prevalencs of disease to an extent that might be expected, is that there ire very few days in which there is not a wind sweeping through the streets raising an unpleasant dust, but bearing away noxious paces and bringing, iu good wholesome country air. One thing we have that is uncommon is a duplatx city government. One branch is tbe regular, tbe other ia l interim. At the recent Corporation election a Republican Mayor waa elected aod a Democratio City Council. The retiring Dcmoeratie Mayor refused to turn the ofiice over to the elect ed Republican, whereupon he, by the aid of a locksmith, entered the oLace, was sworn in, and is runtiing tbe machine with a Re publican board of City Councilmen. The newly elected Democrats on the Council organized themselves into tbe city government, and ignoring the Republican Mayor elected one of their own number Mayor "of interim," and they are claiming to be the city fathers. This state of affairs created considerable excitement for a time, but that bus nearly all subsided, and the matter was virtually settled to day by 1 decision in the District Supreme Court recognizing the authority of the Republican Mayor. A bill hat passed Congress and ia now bifore the President, awaiting his approval or veto, which, when it becomes a law, will settle the present mudJle nnd prevent tho occurrence of another. Unless the Rebel and the Demncratic. Conservative elements continue to work together, there will not probably an occasion arise in tho future requiting the interference of a law of Congress. It is vurprisint; what connubial harmony exist in this united family otj rebels and conservatives. Rv tho word rebel in that connection I mean relet. thoso who were for Jeff. Davis first, last and all time, while there was any hope for (na cause. Ihey wero with hira durinir the war, but are now back, and their patriotio feelings ore wounded as ' thev 1 . t .a. a una me scepter in tne city government departing, and being in danger of falling into the banda of those who were consist ently loyal. From present appearances they will be compelled to auiier the mortification o living under loyal rule here, or seek i resideneo where treason is not ao odious There is, however, a strong combination here against tho loyal majority. The life of that combination is hatred of the negro Without the cohesive rower of that prejudice or hatred, the combination her called antt radical would fall to pieces. It lives on that food ss any other orphan lives on "pap." Four years ago the same combination lived on' mixed food, but its strongest diet was opposition to the war soasoued with abuie of Yankee soldiers That supply is exhausted and, the change --J?. F .i -.1. oi aiei is me ncsi mai can uo done. There are some more devoted to this central thought than others whose fervent patriotism impels them to orgatuzo 'Whits Mao's" party clubs. Some strsnue mlatuation takes hold of tho mind that .1 ... a a tne negro raco is about to take tbe reins of tho government and have it all their own way. Accepting that as a foregone conclusion, they fear the invasion of the social system, and a tlouuh the neirro already baa his foot on tbe thrcshbold c their own homes, they organize and swear that no' negro shall msrry in their fumiiy. That ia all well enough. Certainly every man has i right to regulate his own domestic affairs in his own way, and if one has not power to keep bis own , household free from invasion, it it welt to combine for tbo purpose of creater securitv These members of the White Man'a Club who.e mind are torn by such tormenting fears, bave tbe heartfelt sympathy ol those wbu cinnot sco tho impending danger. Many of their Democratio friends think tbey are taking on more than exist Mas. . Ins (acta justiiy. ino irigutcncd ones persistently bold to their doctriuo that they never will consent to be equal to a nigger. Their malady aecms to bolong to the class of the "mind diseased," for which Shaksncaro thought tbere was no remedy. Perhsps their minds will be more at caso when they learn that there Is no party, cither political, religious or social, striving to make the colored man equal to anybody, or to make anybody marry him or her, or to give him any political coutrol, or to transfer the rights of either a political, social or religious character from any white man to any colored man. Tbe colored man bas been given some civil right that were his, but long withheld. These will never be taken from him. If the Democratio parly take Chief Justice Chaso as .their representative man in the spproacliug campaign, tho principle of equal civil right will be admitted by the party, and that distinguished man has al ready tho endorsement of enough prominent Democrats' for the first place on their ticket to commit lhal party to tbe adtniasion, at least, that j they are not so terribly afraid of negroes as tbey : weio - old rby their, lesders to be; and it will be nothing more than the world bas before seen, if, evcu In the approaching campaign, the

Democratio party claim that even and fair

justice shall bo done - that long abused race. Tbe world will honor tnetn lor It, and honor them for laying aside their consuming prcdjudices and unauthorized bate of a feebl but r miotic poople. . - "... ; J. R. G. DEMotitsr'fl Young America, Of all the juvenile periodicals Demorost's Young America is the only ono that has really made a distinctive nsme and place.
