PLATFORM ov Tin: NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY. ltexolvetl, That, the platform adopted at Cincinnati be affirmed, with the following explanatory resolutions: 1. That the Government of a Territory organized bv an act of Contrress is nrovi.-iional and tcmnorarv.

and during it? existence all citizens of the United States have an equal right lo settle with their prop erty in the Territory, without 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 property in the Territories, and wherever else its constitutional authority extends. S. 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 the Union, they stand on an equality 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 and 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 to protect the naturalized citizen in all his rights, whether at home or in foreign lands, to the same extent as its native born citizens. Whereas, 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 coasts; therefore be it resolved, 7. That tlie National Democratic party do hereby j pledge themselves to use every means in their power

to secure the passagaof some bill, to the extent of

tneir constitutional authority, uy congress, lor tne construction of a railroad to the Pacific ocean at the earliest practicable moment.

tained possession of one Department of the Federal Government. This has alarmed the people of the other secllon, and precipitated movements looking to a dissolution of ihe Union. The whole countn, and the people of all the Ntutus alike, are deeply and equally interested in what concerns the welfare of - every Amerlmii citizen, whether in tho North or the South, una whether at home or abroad. We are evidently surrounded by perils of noordinar; uuignilude dangers that may burst upon us in all their terrible reality nt any hour.

Kroin HurirT' Weekly. Disunion Caused by the British Aristocracy. Wo present, tho following important communication to our 'readers without comment. The writer is known ns n gentleman of intelligence

and integrity. A VIEW BEHIND THE CURTAIN Ii the fall of 1853 the writer met in Paris the latd Mr. Aahon Lkouktt, formerly a wealthy merchant in this city, and a member of the Society of Friends. We conversed frequently on the political prospects of our country us affected by the agitation of the Slavery question. Mr. L. said that, when he was a young man, lie was an active and zealous member of a Massachusetts

Society, and that he continued to cherish in after life a very compassionate feeling for the poor negroes. At the time of the general emancipation of the slaves in the British West Indies Mr. Legget's business called liim to the city of Mexico, and while residing there lie met Deputy Commissary-General Wilson, of the British Army, an agent appointed by the British Government to make the financial arrangements connected with

the payment to the West India Slaveholders of their portion of the 20,000,000 voted by the British Parliament ns a compensation for the forced sacrilice of their property.

Mr. Leqoett said that, when ho learned Mr,

Wilson's errand, he took occasion, while he was sitting with him one day after dinner, to express his admiration of the British Government and

the British people, for that noble act, the vote of

20,000,000 sterling, to procure liberty for tiOO.000 negroes! He gave full utterance lo his feelings, and almost exhausted the vocabulary of eulogy to find tho commendatory epithets which he applied to England and Englishmen. "Mr. Wilson did not seem to sympathize with me," said Mr. L., "and when I had finished, he simply tinned to mo, and said, 'Do you think, Mr.

legyett, Unit Hits emancipation of the neyroes will

prove to be a wise measurer "Certainly, I replied," said Mr. L. "How can it be otherwise?" "The cool heads in England," said Mr. Wil

son, "do not think it will be beneficial in its effects on the interests of the people either in the colonies or the mother country. Nor do 1 think so. We think that the freed negroes will do hardly any work; and that the West India colonies, as lo their commercial value to the mother country, will be ruined." Mr. Leggett had been carried away with the representations of the enthusiastic friends of emancipation that free labor was more productive than slave labor; ikal when the negroes were free they would receive wages, and that this would stimulate them lo raise sugar and coffee in

greater quantities; that commerce would feel ihe

benefit of the new impulse to agriculture; that

lands would rise in value; that the income of the planters would be increased, etc.; and his ardor was at first cooled by Mr. Wilson's gloomy view of the case. "After a little reflection, however," said Mr. L.. "I continued my eulogy of the British Government and the British people; and I went now further than before in the expressions of my admiration, but I went on a new track. I said that the enemies of Englishmen, and of their government, were accustomed to represent them as always governed by mercenary considerations, and too willing to sacrifice justice, humanity, and all the virtues, to the lust of gain; but here was a

case in which the cool heads that directed the action of the Government deliberately burdened their country with an immense debt, not to open

new news ol weallli, but in full prospect of des troying the commercial value of their West In

dia colonies, and of impoverishing the peopl

there, and the proprietors in England and all

Horn a Humane feeling, and a nigh sense of jus

uce a nigii sense oi wnai is uue lo poor, nelp less, down trodden negro slaves. It was the no blest act recorded in history I I knew of no par

allel to it anywhere.

"When I had finished," added Mr. L., "Mr,

W. again turned to me, and said, 'Mr. Lefrsett,

do you really believe that the men who control

the action of the British Government were led by

such motives as you ascribe to them, to sacrifice

the commercial interests of their country?

"I replied," said Mr. L.. "that if the men who controlled the action of the British government

really OelieveU that the abolition of slavery in

the British West Indies would end in the com

mercial ruin of the islands, I could riot conceive

of any other motive for their conduct than the

noble one winch I had assigned."-.

" 'Well, Mr. Leggett,' said Mr. W 'you may believe this, but I do not. I believe that (he ac

tion of the British government is made to pro

mote, as far as possible, the intebests of the

English Aristocracy.

Mr. L. then asked, "What interest of the En

glish Aristocracy will be promoted by the ruin of

me Diitisn west inula islands 7 Mr. Wilson said (hat the abolition of slavery in the British colonies would naturally create an enthusiastic anti-slavery sentiment in England and America, and that in America this would in process of time excile a hostility between the free

oiaies ana llie Slave tetates, which would end in a dissolution of the American Union, and the consequent failure of the grand experiment of democratic government; and that the ruin of Democracy in America would be the perpetuation of Aristocracy in England. I do not undertake lo give the language of Mr. Leggett, but ihe fol

lowing paraphrase conveys, in my own language, the impression made upon mv own mind of the

course of reasoning by which Mr. W. came to

ins conclusion.

emancipation of the slaves in most of these States to go hand in hand with their removal to other lands. It is also well known that immediately

after the Abolition of Slavery in the British colonies, anti-slavery societies of a totally different character were formed in New England, and

that these Societies were based on the principle of

bitter hatred to all slaveholders, and a fierce denunciation of the measures which had been framed, with great consideration and wisdom, by Southern slaveholders, for the welfare of their slaves, and the elevation of the negro race. It is well known that the supporters of these New England anti-slavery societies established newspapers, issued tracts, employed lecturers, and devised plans, evidently intended to irritate Southern men, and provoke to acts which would irritate Northern men, and provoke retaliatory acts, and thus, by continued angry action and reaction, ripen a hostility between the Nosth and the South, which would naturally end in a dissolution of the American Union.

portion of the lands in the kingdom; and these estates are entailed in their families. The House of Lords is composed exclusively of the Aristocracy; and they have such influence in the elections that the members of the' House of Commons are to a great extent the near relatives of

. Mother!' cried a little girl, rushing into the room where a lady sat reading 'mother! John hit me in the face with all his might 1 Oh dear! Oh dear ! it hurts so !' ... And the child passed her hand again.st her cheek, and threw her head backward and forward, as if she were in great pain. The lady's face reddened instantly, and the book fell from her hand to the floor. There was anger in her heart against John, and in the blindness of her sudden indignation she resolved to punish him with a severe chasement. But ere she had reached the apartment in which her child had been playing, she paused suddenly and stood still. A limely thought glancing through her mind, had arrested her steps.

: 'This will not do. I must control myself,1 she said, speaking half aloud. Then, after a resolute strife with her angry feelings, the mother went back lo the room where she had left her weeping child, and sitting down in her old place said, with as calm and steady a voice as she could assume 7 'Agnes, let me see your check.' 'Oh dear 1 How it hurts !' sobbed Agnes, as she came to her mother's side, her hand still pressed to her face. The lady gently removed the hand, and examined her little girl's cheek, There was a red mark as if a blow had been received, but no evidence of a bruise. 'Agnes,' said the mother, now speaking very calmly and gently, yet with a firmness that at once subdued the excitement of her child's mind ; 'I want you to stop crying, and tell me at once all about this trouble you had with John.' The child's tears ceased lo flow, mid she looked up into her mother's face. Agnes, who gave the first provocation in this matter, you or John ?' 'John struck me in the face !' replied the child, evincing a great deal of angry feeling toward her brother. Why did he strike you V Agnes was silent. 'Who saw tin trouble between you and John ?' inquired the mother. 'Why, Mary saw it. She'll tell you that John struck me in the Cnce with all his might.' 'Tell Mary I wish to see her.' Agnes went for her sister. When they returned, the mother said : 'Now, Mary, tell mc all about this trouble with John and Agnes.' . 'You saw him strike me, didn't you Mary ?' said Agnes, with the eagerness of angry resentment. 'I will question Mary,' said the mother, 'and

while I am doing so, you, Agnes, must have nothing to say. After Mary has finished, then you can correct her statement if you wish to do so. Now, Mary, say on.' 'Well, Mother, I'll tell you just how it was,' said Mary. 'Agnes was teasing John, and John got angry.' 'And struck his sister !' There was a tone of severity in the mother's voice. 'I think the blow was accidental,' said Mary. 'John declared that it was, and tried his best to comfort Agnes', even promising to give her his pet kitten if she would stop crying, and not make trouble by telling you. But she was angry, and would not listen to him.' 'Tell me just what occurred, Mary, and then I shall know exactly how fur both were to blame.' "Well," answered Mary, "John and I were playing checkers, and Agnes would, every now and then, steal up behind John and push his elbow when he was making a move. It worried liim, and he asked her over and over again not to do so. But she didn't mind what he said. At last John pushed the board from liim, and wouldn't play any longer. He was angry. Still Agnes seemed bent on annoying him. John got a book and sat down near the window to read.He had not been there long before Agnes stolo up behind him, whipped the book out of his hand, and ran away. John sprung afler her, and they had a struggle for the book, in which Agnes got a blow upon the face.' I was looking at them, and I think the blow was accidental. It seemed so nt tho time, and John declares that he did not mean to strike her. That is all, mother.-' "Call your brother," said the lady, in a subdued voice; John entered the room in a few moments. He was pale, and looked troubled. "My son," said the mother, speaking without apparent excitement, yet with a touch of sorrow in her voice, "did you slrike Agnes on purpose ?" "'. The boy's lips quivered, but no answer came through them, lie looked into his mother's eyes for a moment or two, until tears blinded

1 him, and then he laid his face down upon her j bosom and sobbed. With love's tender instinct j the mother drew her arms tightly around her boy, ; and then there was a silence for (hu space of a i minute. "It was an accident, I tun sure." whispered j the mother, placing her lips close to the ear of her boy. 1 "Indeed it was!" John answered back with earnestness. "My hand slipped as I iried to get my book from her, and it struck her in the face, . 1 was so sorry !" What else could the mother do than kiss wiih ardor the fair brow of her boy, against whom, under the influence of anger, she h -d passed a hasty judgment. She almost shuddered at the thought of the unjust punishment she had come nigh inflicting while blind from sudden excitement. "The chief blame, 1 see, rests w ith Agnes," said the lady, turning with some severity of voice and countenance toward the little girl, who howslood with the aspect of a culprit instead of an accuser. "It was her fun, mother," John spoke up quickly. "She loves to tease, vou know, and I was wrong lo get angry." "But teasing does not come from a good spirit," replied the mother, "and I am sorry that my little girl can find no higher enjoyment than the pleasure of annoying her brothers and sisters. I am satisfied with you, John, but not with Agnes ; and now you may leave us alone." John and Mary wi nt out, and left their mother alone with Agnes. When Ihe little girl joined her brothers and sisters some time afterward, she had a sober face, like one whose spirit was not at ease with itclf. She had been guilty of double wrong, and had come near drawing down upon ' her innocent brother unjust punishment. So clearly had her mother brought this to her view, that shame followed conviciion, and she was now ready to acknowledge her fault, and promise belter conduct in ihe future. But the one who piotitted most by this scene of trouble, was the children's mother. After all was harmonized again, and she was alone with her own thoughts, she lifted a heart of thankfulness for her self-control, and prayed that abe might ever possess her spirit of calmness. "I tremble in thinking of the evil that would have followed a blind punishment of mv noble hearted bov!" T. S. Arthur.
