These wuianfl' these alone, it is eonceded, prevented revolution and civil war. %@&#‘Wu they notnow be redeemed? ior myself, these pledges have been thus faf most faithfully maintained, and they will he t-deemed by me, il necessary, with the last aropef my life's blood, and tothe latest hour. - «f my existence. . Themewwgn well known 1o the Presidentand all bis cabinet.— ‘U'hiey were pledges given by me in good faith and;g\x abandonment of them now on my pact, atier the people had accepted and acted upon them, would be*to cover myself with _ intamy and dishonor.

Butwere the case now exempt from these pledges and theipcnnse(!nences, it it true I%at the people in framing a State Constitution are only 1o decide the slavery question? Has .t come to this? That the people in theirsoy - creignty are todecide only the destiny of such Sliricahs as may be in their limits, and not wupon allthose far greaterrights which concern thei life, iiberty, property and hWappiness of a {rie people 2 . Has the African become so el¢vated adove the free men of this Union, that they, in their sovereing capacity, may not decide upon all that concerns own govern- . ment, but only upon the fate of that sable race “{it may be within their boundaries! And is )t true that the people in inchoate frce States .c«n neither ratify nor reject any partof their ~tate Constitution, but that this can be done in *inchoate siave Statesonly, and then only regands this particular institution? ' The Kansas and Nebjaska bill, declares it to be **the true intent and meaning of the acty to leave the people “thereof perfecily free to fornn and regulate ‘their domestic -institutions, in their own way, subject only to the Constitution of the United States.” Now the President in his December message admits that the term ‘people,’ as here used, means what it says, the people themselves in ihieir sovereign capacity (as contradistinguish--4 from conventions) in voting for or against " the ratification of a State Constitutien. But _ie says the terms ‘domestic institutions’ n the plural, means only one institution, narne-iy-that of slavery. But the term ‘their domestic institations' most clearly include them ull, becanse extending in words and letter to all the territories of the Union, whether bond or free. The President regards this Kansas Nebraska bill as an enabling act but enablng whom, or what, or how? ~Why, enabling the people to form and regulate their dowestic institutions through a State Constitutton. The word *form’ is here significant. - Whocver spoke of forming the institutions of slavery? This word mostclearly implies the forming of a State Constitution, and it it does mean this, 1t is not_an enabling act, for that 7 the great object and purpose for such an wet These words then do enable the people ty framt a State Constitutou, and-by which they shall form and regulate their institutions: and the President concedes that the word ‘people,’ as here used, means, as it says, the people themselves,as contradistinguished fiom conventions; by a _direct vote for ratification or rejection. This then being an enabling act, an act, as construed by the :President enabling the people to frame their own Constitution, this term, the people, cannot have two tnterpretations, one meaning the people themselves, and another also as the President insists. conventions only. No; these words ‘the people’ in that act, have but one significarion as applicable to all their domestic insfitutions ‘and it can never be interpreted lo mean, as the President would construe it ip what he calls an enabling act, the people so far as regards the ‘question of Slavery, and conventions only,as regards all other subjects ‘No, this great acl, declaratory upon itg very face, was intended to' recognize the right of self-government in its broadest and most comprehensive sense, -as vested in- the people tFemselves extending to all their domestic in. atitutions in ratifying or rejecting their Siate Constitutions, whose provisions could only he known and acted on by them, when sub: mitted for their decision by the convention, = . * * . .

" Is Democracy a. name and shadow, or a substance? It means the power of the peoplc This is the vital essence. Or hag it lostits true signification, or are we moving from it with viewless strides towards despotic power, to make and unmake the rules of political faith under pains and penalties abhorrent to ihe souls of freemen? Is this the 82nd year of our Independence, or is it the first year of American Monarchy, that is now dawning upon:us? Let the people—let the masses composing the true Democracy, arouse from their slumbers. Let them break the chains which would fetter their free. thought and free opinion and assert their blood bought rights, and especially the great indefeasible sovereign right of. self-government. -We . have fallen upon evil times— The liberties of the country are in danger.

THE REGISTER. -We copy in another patt of our paings of this body, which met at Indianapolis on Thursdayfast, togetherwith the platforni of Principles adopted.— The Convention was well attended and enthugilistic, and judging from the re2TR woeticgl o s present were duly impressed - with the importance of the oceasion, and the im- 1 portance of the principles there to be deliberated upon. The Platform adopted meets with our hearty approval, and upon it we are willing to take oiif stand, to do batsle for Free Soil, Free. Speech and Free Men. They are not so radical but what all honest and sincere opponents of the aggressions of the Slave Power, in the shape of election frauds or Lecompton swindles, may unite “to teach transgressors their ways,” and overthrow ‘the monster before it shall ‘have usurped the liberties of the people, and placed its iron heels upon our necks. They are in striking -contrast iwith the time-serving resolutions passed by the office-holders Convention of the Bth of January last, and if the honest voters of Indiana would but be guided by the dictates of their better judgment and sound reason, and not be influenced by party feelings, or blinded by party spirit, we could teach those: who have attempted to perpetrate a great wrong upon our nation that we are not to be be trifled with, or our votes bought by the paltry love of office or its honors. . :

In regard to the candidates the Journal well says the ticket was heartily ratified by the Convention, and it deserved it. We~think it one of the best tickets ever presented to the people of Indiana. The men are no hacknied candidates who have been before conventions every year for half a lifetime. There are no professional office: seckers among them. All arenew men, fresh from the people; and frown their private duties and professions. There is not a man among them against whom a syllable of impeachment in any respect mental, moral or political, can be urged. They are honest men, and they are qualified: They fill the whole Jeffersonian measure. There might have been abler or more popular men put forward for particular offices, but the whole ticket together is an excellent one, and Indiana never had a better one.

The Convention was numerously attended. The Hall was packed full, the whole day. All the-aisles, the windows, the platform, the standing room everywhere, were filled to the last inch. We never saw so many men in the Hall before, In fact there were too many in attendance for comfort, or for the dispatch of business. And we never saw a crowd filled with a better spirit, or more resolute to do right in spite of differences.- And we never sawa meeting break up so well satisfied with a day’s work as did that Convention.— There were few long faces, and few muttered discontents. Everybody szem- | ed to think a dangerous rock had been safely weathered, and to feel a new hope and 'a stronger faith in a cause which had reconciled so many eonflicting views, and brought a happy termination to anticipated difficulties. : In the Senate. The Z'ribune correspondent informs us that the Kansas debate in the Senate cannot probably be brought to a close in less than a month; and” its chances at the end of that time, are not so strongly in favor of Lecompton as have been supposed. With JErrERsoN Davis| sick and absent, and the tremenduous battery from the Republican side pouring in on the Lecomptonites for $o long a period, the result cannot be regarded as certain. Meantime, another convention is called in Kansas, the election to which takes place-to-day. The convention meets in a couple of weeks more, and it is quite likely that the constitution which it is to frame will be adopted by the peeple,and in Washington by the ‘time the Senate is ready to' vote. -The Administraton is getting deeper and deeper in this Kansas morass,and if they do not drown; it shall not be our fault. ——— @ ¢ e ! - .#&y="We invite the closest perusal-of the reader to the letter of Hon.

. 'The Bigns of the Times. - - The 4th of March last was the first anniversary of the ' inanguration of JamEs BuCHANAN as President of these United States. The sun arose on that day more glorious than thet of Austerlitz—inspiring our Democratic friends with hope and joy, which alas! are turned to disappointment and mourning. The luminary which they wor- 1 shiped, with all the ndorlmf blind devotion of a Parsee, hug%a, like Lucifer, never to rise again. -~

* In proof of this, read-the accounts of thie meetings of the Anti-Lecompton wing of the Democratié party now being held almost daily. Men who were one year igo loudest in their praises of the Sage of Wheatland, are now the foremiest to denounce the perfidy of his conduet in the Kansas outrage. . A large and enthusiastic meeting was held at Cincianati on the 10th inst., headed by H. B. Payné, their late Demoeratic candidate for Governor, a short account of which we. give in our paper to-day.. There was also an uprising of the Democraey of this State at Indiaiiapolis on the 22d ult., which was spirited and outspoken, as' the following resolution, among the numbe‘f afio’pted, will testify : 7. That the policy of forcing Kansas into the Union upon a Constitution already rejected| at the ballot-box by alarge majority of the people for whose government it was framed, 1s tuinous; that it involves an act of Congressional invention and criminal usurpation—accomplished, ifat all, ata sacrifice of the plighted faith of the nation, and in Jdefiance of principles of self-government, to which the delegate Convention of the Bth of January last pledged the Democracy of Indiana. The same parly now, in mass Convention, most solemny protest agains{ (he theatened treason to its principles, and repudiate thé aclion of those members -of Congress from - this Siate who shall approve ef or vote for dragging Kansas into the Union upon the 'Lecompton Constilution, : Gov.

‘We might mention other items as tokens of the spirit pervading among the udterrified Democracy, for instance the meeting at Toledo, at Cleveland, at Columbus, &e., but this will suffice to show that the Democracy of the Great North-west are-not to be bought and sold, or their rights to be trampled upon by usurpers, without some show of resistance. = Let the people speak in tomes not to be mistaken:: - ' ‘ New Ducv:;:y of Marbles While on a visit to Chicago, this week, we were shown a - specimen of Marble, quarried on the shore of Lake Superior, which is pronounced by Messrs. H. & O. Wilson, the heaviest Marble Dealers in the City, as the best marble in the known world. Tt is of darker color than either the Italian or American Marble, but susceptible of a higher polish than either: There is also a larger variety of color than in any other marble.: The specimen that we saw varied ‘from & lightish violet color to'that résemblihg a peach-blow hue. The Messrs. Wilson’s gave an order for a quantity of it at prices exceeding the present selling rates for Italian marble. - : If this marble should realize the expectations of the Messrs. Wilson’s it will make quite a revolution in the marble trade of thiscountry. = . " The gentleman who owns the quarry above mentioned, informed us that the supply is almost inexhaustible.. . Wewould remark that the marble will not at present be wsed as much for ‘tombstones as for furniture, such as ‘Mantels, Table tops, &c. &c., as it is of a_very hard material, making it much ‘more expensive to wark. ew3

‘Robbery of the Treasurer’s Office. On Monday night last, the Treasurer’s Office of 'this County was brokew inte and 'some fifteen dollars in silver coim taken therefrom. There was also fifteen or twen% dollars of bank bills, and a small ambunt more of silver in the drawer, which was not taken. = =~ - It,*is supposed to have been robbed by some petty thief whese demands for momey were quite modest. . It alsoappears that the thief or thisyes belonged to the sint-drop stripe of politics, and that hard money was their motto.| We understand that itis net usual for the Treasurer to leave money in the office in its present unprotected staté, but had happened at this time to leave the small amount heretofore mentioned. < " The office - was entered through the iR ‘thx:h;w : mdwwy‘ okt wosth baing paled ptdghin tie billing, immeditely ande the window, to asufficient highth 1o easily

Belgl S o ersbly alarmed of late by the sgitation their very quiet town to some point on !fig’*lhfl' Road. " The means of access to our neighbors, is indesd;unfortunate. Had they secured through their place a. rail, of even a plank road, it micht haveprecluded the idea of an attempted removal. But. the' effeet of remonstrating in this mater is only to mtakei §people talk the more, and in view of this fact we deem it important to lay ‘before our ' readers a obndémed;stat;e-{ ‘ment, of the law made and provided in_ ‘case of removal. The Legislature of 1’55 passed an act, entitled “An act to previde ' for the re-location of county fisea_ts, and for the erection of Public ‘Buildings in Counties, ih ¢ase of such lre-location, on petition to the County Commissioners, of two-thirds of the legal voters of any County, the Commissioners shall employ a competent architeet to draft plans and - specifications of new buildings, the samé to be of Brick or Stone with fire-proof offices, the whole cost of which shall not exceed $15,000. This sum must be secured to the county before the contract for said buildings is let. And when the build‘ings are completed according to the ‘plans and specifications and donated to the County together with three and a quarter acres of land, enclosed with a good fence—then the board of County Commissioners shall remove: the books and records of the County to such new ‘buildings, which, from and after such removal, shall be the seat of justice of

said county. - 1 . The Legislature has thrown ample guards around the tax-payers, and secures in all cases good brick or stone’ buildings, with fire proof offices asa donation to the County in case of .removal, whichin these hard times, when our county tax is seventy cents on t.he} hundred dollars valuation, is highly important. o % . In what we have here said, we do not. wish to be understood as taking sides on the question of removal, but in the’ words of the famous Kansas bill, “leave the people perfectly free to decide this matter for themselves.” ; %

s - Bigamy. : . There has been some little excitement in town for a fow days past, in relation to_a man who has resided here for some months, being charged with bigamy.— We anderstanrd that a correspondence has beén instituted by a letter written from the State of New York by a lady enquiring for a man by the pame. of Long, describing him, &c., and representing herself ag the wife of Long— Said -Long having, and living with a wife here. The news of the aforesaid correspondence being. communicatedito Mr. Long, he seemed to be impressed with the trath of the facts set out therein. After a cenfossion of his Mormon proclivities, and: while the ‘Regulators,’ as wo understdnd, were cogitating upon their right to regulate such matters Leng “regulated” himself off. Consequently his shadow 1s less here than it was. : ’ | Our county will doubtless feel hard at his leaving thus, as he had given in to the Assessor four thousand dollars as taxable property belonging to himool sieo D el e g ; We learn that the aforesaid property really consists in some “castles built in the air,” as also some land spied out by Gulliver in his wonderful travels.— Property whieh will e rather hard for our tax eollector to~ get at, consequent-ly-we think that'it will have to go on the'Delinquent list. - =

We have not room for a full report of the doings of this body, which met at Indianapolis, March 4th, but we give such parts of mfpmafim%of interest to a majority of our readérs.\ The Convention, was organized by choosing Hon. 0. P. MorTON, President, and_ electing a number of Vice Presidents, among whom we notice the dinso ‘of Wy, MirongLy, Esq, of Kendallville: Speeches were made by the Prosident, Hon. S. W. Parker, Hon. il 8. Lane and others, which had a thrillingeffect upon the audience,and brought dewn thunders of applause. ;

The usual number of Committees were appointed, among which were a' Committee of three from each Congressional District to nominate state officors, and a Committee of one from each District to report a Platfotm of Prineiples.— While these Committees were preparing to report, several pithy and pointed speeches were made by Messrs. Julian, Murray and others, when the Commit= teeon Platform announced themselves as prepared to report, Mr. Hudson read the report as follows: it m;cunnoql;f:?g- PRINCIPLES. ~ \l./That our National Government ought to beso administered ag to promote harmony between the different sections of our couptry, secure the affections of all the people of; the United States, and command the respect of the Nations of the earth. : 2.

That the attempt now being so persistently maae by the present administration to impose upon Kanasas the Lecompton Constitu: tion, notoriously obnoxious to the great majority of her citizens, and with no other object than to -force upon them institulions against which they have repeatedly and most earnestly protested,is a gross outrage upon the rights of the people of that Territory, and calculated to disturh-the peace and harmony of the couniy, o i 4- That Freedom is National and Slavery Sectivnal, and that we do most earnestly: protest against and denounce the dangerotis and alarming doctrine first prowulga‘ed by the disunionssis and nullifiers of the South, that the the Conslitution of the United ‘States of itself carries slavery into, and protects st in all -the territories of the United States, and this: doctrine and all its supporters, maintainers and defenders whether in or out of authority, we here pledge ourselves fo resist and oppose; as enemies lo the peace and welfare of the counfy. e : : : 5.

Some: ene said it was not worth while to put the other side. - But Mr. Orth put the negative and some five or six voicesresponded - “no.”: So the platform was adopted, almost unanimously. . This result was greeted with! long and ' hearty cheering, kept up for several minutes. M.

In the course of his remarks he told)s an anecdote which contained abard slap against the Sentinel. A negrobey on a'steamboat was asked who he belonged to. He, replied that he belonged to Capt. George that morning, but his master had been playing poker all day, and he did not know whose nigger he was now: - 8o it was with the Sentinel. Its owners had been playing poker and had transferred it about several times of late. It was now -doing the .best it could for Lecompton and slavery. - ~ William Grose, of Henry, in a few re-. marks made some happy hits at the administration, which “brought down the house.” A brief review of the doiflgs in the Legislaturegast winter was given, which was concise and pointed; and “telling” against Willard & Co. _Gen. G. K. Steele, of Parke, followed Mr. Grose. He said the platfort made by this convention was oneof the best~ he had ever read, and thecre never was a better ficket presented to the peoplo than the one formed by the Republicans to-day. It was the duty now of every one present to go home and assist in its ‘eleetion. ' Several anecdotes told as illustrative of the policy of the President produiced roats of latghter in the halk. He endorsed the nomination of Mr. Griswold for Sapreme Judge, and Mr. Lange for Auditor. These gentlemenwere from his section of the State, and he was authorized to speak for them. - Mr. Ray, of Clark, followed Gen. Steel. Several other speeches were made, but we have no room for even a notice of them.
