In order to avoid conflicting with a mass meeting at Middletown, on the same day, by the Opposition, it has been thought advisable by the State Central Committee to change the day of the Democratic Mass Meeting at Anderson, from Monday, the 1 7 th, to Tuesday, the 18th, at the same hour. Our friends will please notice this change. ',. CHANGE jOF PLACE I On the urgent solicitation of a large number, the place of holding the Mass Meeting has been changed, by the Central Committee, from Centrevillc, to Richmond. - TO CORRESPONDENTS. We solic it our friends in all parts of the State to faorv us occasionally with communications short, but to the jwinfr so that the public may be informed of the strength and spirit of the Breckinridge movement in this State. BRECKINRIDGE PLATFORM. Platform of the National Democratic Party. Thk Candidates. For President J ohn C. Breckinridge, of Ken-.: tucky;' For Vice President Gen. Joseph Lane, of Or- . egon. . Resolved, That the platform' adopted by the Democratic party at Cincinnati be nth rmed, with the following explanatory resolutions: 1 . That the Government of a Territory organized by Hn act of Congress is provi-iunal and temporary, and during its existence all citizens of the United States have an equal right to settle with their property in the terriiory, wiihout their rights, either in person or property, being destroyed by Congressional or Territorial legislation. 2. That it is the duty of the Federal Government, in all the departments, when necessary, to protect the rights of persons and properly in the Territories, and wherever else its constitutional authority extends. 3. That when the settlers in a Territory, having an adequate population, form a State Constitution, the right of sovereignty commences, and being consummated by their admission into theUnion, they stand on an equaliiy with the people of other States, and a State thus organized ought to be admitted into the Federal Union, whether its Constitution prohibits or recognizes the institution of slavery. 4. That the Democratic party are in favor of the acquisition of Cuba, on such terms as shall be honorable to ourselves !ind just to Spain, at the earliest practicable moment. 5. That the enactments of State Legislatures to defeat the faithful execution of the Fugitive Slave Law are hostile in character, subversive of the Constitution, and revolutionary in their effect. 6. That the Democracy of the United States recognize it as an imperative duty of the Government Jo protect the naturalized citizen in all his rights, whether at home or in foreign lands, to the same extent as iu native born ci'izens. Whereat, One of the greatest necessities of the age, in a political, commercial, postal, and military point of view, is a speedy communication between the Pacific and Atlantic coaslf therefor be it resolved. 7. That the National Democratic party do hereby pledge themselves to use every means in their power lo secure the passage of aome bill, to the exu-nt of their constitutional authority by Congress, for the construction of a railroad to the Pacific Ocean, at the earliest practicable moment.

THE COMPROMISE REJTECED.

We. publish below, in-this number, the correspondence of the Breckinridge and the Doujrlas State Cen tral Committees, in relation to a Compromise Electoral Ticket. As our paper is about to go to press, we have neither time nor space for extended remarks. Indeed, comment is unnecessary. Our proposition is rejected. J lie Douglas men, by their action in this respect, proclaim to the world their preference for Abraham Lin coln as the next l resident of the United states I Thev put their refusal to accept our proposition upon the ground of want of authority. This is only a shallow excuse. Douglas Executive or Central Com mittees have no hesitation about their 'authority' to form coalitions with Know Nothings; but can find none to adopt measures for binding up the broken fragments of the Democratic party. Their Committee in Indiana assumed authority to instruct delegates to the National Convention. Their National Committee, or a portion of it, met at the National Hotel, in Avashington, and assumed authority to NOMINATE a candidate for the Vice Presidency ; but when it comes to adopting a line of policy by which alone the Democracy of this State can triumph, they skulk behind the plea of want of "authority." CORRESPONDENCE. Indianapolis, July 31, 18G0. Hon. N. B. Palmer, Chairman, &-c At a Mass State Convention of the friends of Breckinridge and Lane, held in this city, this day, among other resolutions, the iollowing were adopted: Resolved, That whilst we disapprove of the platform of principles on which Mr. Douglas is now a candidate, we still regard it as less objectionable than that on which Mr. Lincoln is placed; therefore, Resolved. That the Democratic Central Committee this day appointed, be authorized and requested to confer with the Central Committee appointed on the 1 1 tli day of January last, with the view to the organizing and running of one and a joint electoral ticket, on the Iollowing basis, to-wit: If the persons that may be jointly agreed upon for electors shall be elected, they shall cast the vote of this State for that one of the two candidates for President and Vice President Breckinridge and Lane, or Douglas and Johnson who it shall be found, after the election, is certain to receive the highest number of electoral votes from other States, That said commit tee be authorized, 'in their discretion, to agree upon the adoption of an entirely new electoral ticket, or the miming of either of the present elecloral tickets, or of a ticket composed of parts of the present electoral tickets, as may be thought most expedient. The ( lectors who may be then agreed upon, pledging themselves, in writing, to cast the vote of the State (if elected) in accordance with this resolution. Jn discharge ot the duty devolved upon us, we lose no time in submitting this resolution to you, in order that such action may be taken by you, and those associated with you on the committee appointed at the Convention held in this city on the 11th of January, as you deem proper. A reply at your earliest convenience is very desirable. Respectfully, W. II. Talbott, Chairman, &c. 1st District, J.vo. B. Gardiner, 2d L. Sparks, Geo. II. Kyle, B. F. Mi-llen, Alex. White, John R.

Indianapolis, Aug. 2, 1860. To W. II. Talbott, Esq., (Chairman,') and others Gents: Your communication of the 31st tilt., ac companied by resolutions ot the late Breckinridge meeting in this city, and asking the action of the Democratic Central Committee upon the propositions therein contained, came to hand in proper time. I shall take the earliest opportunity to lay your communication before the Committee, of which I have the honor of being Chairman. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, N. B. Palmer, Chairman Ind. Dem. Cen. Com. Indianapolis, August 17, 1860. Hon. N. B. Palmer, Chairman, fcc.i Sir Some fifteen days have elapsed since you acknowledged the receipt of my letter enclosing a resolution passed by the Mass State Convention of the friends ot' Breckinridge and Lane, held in this city July 3 1st, having for its object the running of one and a joint electoral ticket, thereby enabling us to secure harmony and success in our party in this State. No response having been made, I feel constrained to respectfully call your attention again to this subject, and request an answer without further delay. Very respectfully yours, &c, W. II. Talbott, Chairman Ind. National Democratic Cen. Com. Indianapolis, August 20, 1860. W.m. II. Talbott, Esq.: .SVi Your letter of the 17th instant, calling my attention to your letter of the 31st July, covering certain resolutions of a Breckinkidge meeting held in this city on the 31st ult., is before me. A meeting of the Indiana Democratic Central Committee was called for the 17th insr., but for some cause a full attendance was not accorded, and no formal action taken on the subject presented in said resolutions. I may remark, however, that from correspondence and interchange of views, it is ascertained that the members of the Central Committee appointed at the Indiana Democratic State Convention, held on the 1 1 th January last, are unanimously of the opinion that they have no authority to act in the premises contemplated in your proposals. Very respectfully, N. B. Palmer, Chairman Ind. Dem. Central Committee. PROSPECTUS OF THE DAILY "CAPITAL CITY FACT": AND " WEEKLY STATE CAPITAL FACT."

That every Democratic United States Senator save only Mr. Fugh and Mr. Douglas, endorses the nomination of Breckinridge and Lane, and will render good aid in electing them. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE ! That in the House of Representatives three-fifths at least, of the Democratic members, go the same ticket. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE! That ex-President Pierce, and so far as heard from, every member of his Cabinet, are openly in the field for Breckinridge and Lane, the Union and the Constitution. KEEP IT BEFORE TILE PEOPLE ! That James Buchanan and every member of his Cabinet, including Gen. Cass, the leader of the Democracy in the campaign of 1848, are firm in their support of the nominees of the Democracy Breckinridge and. Lane. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE! That Hon. Daniel S. Dickinson, of New York, and the most prominent men of the party in every State of the Union, have declared the same way. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE I ' That seventeen of the States of the Union areas certain to cast their votes for Breckinridge and Lane as that the sun will rise on the morning of the election. ' . KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE 1 That the Electoral College consists of 303 votes,two thirds of which are 202 Douglas' vote on the last ballot was 181 1 votes or 201 less than the requisite two-thirds which his friends at Charleston voted for. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE ! That when it became apparent to the friends of Judge Douglas that he could not receive 201 more votes, then they gave him the regular (.') nomination by a trick, and declared he was " nominated unanimously." THE WHOLE TRUTH IN A NUT-SHELL. The whole number of votes cast were 1941. There were 108$ delegates absent, and not voting, even after the admission of the bogus delegates from Alabama and Louisiana. Deducting these, there were bu 189$ regular legal delegates or 123 less than a ful Convention present. Of the Free State delegates 3 from Maine, 3 from Massachusetts, 2$ from Connecticut, 4 1 from New Jersey, and 1 7 from New York ' 30 in all had seceded. Steubenville Union.

Carlton, Esq., Editor. It will advocate the election of those true, tried, and patriotic Statesmen, -JOIIN-CVBRECKINRIDGE,- -of "Old Kentucky," ' .' . AND V' GENERAL JOE LANE, of Oregon, for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, A period has arrived in the history of the old, time-honored Democratic Party, when it becomes the solemn duty of those who love principle more than men, to take counsel of their judgments, rather than personal preferences and prejudices, and stand forth calmly, firmly, and fearlessly in defence of the right. We feel that we are doing this in nailing to our mast-head the colors of Breckinridge and Lane, with the platform of principles they have declared in their letters of acceptance, and using all honorable means to insure their election. In the language of our candidate for President, let us stand by the " Constitution, and the Equality of the States! These are symbols of everlasting Union. Let these be the rallying cry of the people. " AH persons friendly to the election of Breckinridge and Lane, are requested to interest themselves in extending the circu lation of the Guard, as the most effective means of aiding in their election. It will keep its readers posted in all the political news of the day, and its aim is to disseminate correct information and dispel error. Let the Guard have a large circulation it will be a valuable aid in the canvass. TMKMS. One copy, until after the Presidential Election, Fifty Cents. Eleven copies, for Five Dollars.
