When a Hrcckiuridger is asked what mi ranty the people lmvothat corroct, ■ onstitutional princii»les will bo carried out hy their party, if it should be piftcod in power* tho ihvnriablo answer is, wo have declared thorn unequivocally in our platform. Whothoror not the an* MVcris truo, wo do not now intond to inquiro, but will, admitting its truth for i he prosont, endeavor to show that it has no force whatever, and in doing so we will not go farther hack than tho Cincinnati “C’lioat and Swindlo.” In our last issuo wo oxposed tho doception practised upon tho peoplo by this plot- form, in tho secret doublo construction meaning given to it by tho party in dif* feront sections of tho Union, and stu diously und successfully hid from tho peoplo. Wo also nssortod that plat forms had no binding force upon tho Democratic party. This assertion we will ondouvor to sustain by an appeal to facts. Section second of tho Cincinnati plat form is os follows: “That tho Constitution does not con- at tho on the to commence and carry on a general system of Internal improve ments.” How was that clauso carried out?— Why by a Democratic Congress Imme diately after its adoption, passing a mimbor, (thirteen wo boiiove) of inter nal improvement bills, appropriating millions of tho public funds. And after President Pierce vetoed thorn, several of thorn were agnin passed over jils head by a two thirds voto. It was in this way that this soction was observ ed. hope that tho new platform of tho Dem ocratic party will bo any bettor observe© than tho old ono ? And can the scced- dors, without the boldest effrontery, re fer to it n« proof of thbir sincerity and ns an ossuranco that their avbwctl prin cipals will be carled out In good faith? Wo have pointed out ffvo particulars wherein tlioy violated the Cincinnati platform, and whore is ono good teasou that tlioy will notviolato thoirwric plat form ? Dialogue. Brecri.vridokk—Demosthenes. jlrtek.—Well, Dr., lot me congratulate you for that noble letter. It Is really encouraging to a patriot'* heart to see men of your talents and Influence throwing off party shackles and coming out boldly on the side of right. It re quired Spartan heroism to take tlm step you have taken. That lettor will throw consternation hut! dismay into the ranks of theOpiKxdtiou, and thou sands will floek to tho party that lias a platform to stand upon. I aupposo our papers liavotf//eopibd your letter. Dem.—Well, no, not nil. HrecL-—How many have dono so ? Jkm.—One. JRreck.—What! Ono! I Only one!! 1 /ton,—You didn’t expect it to he copied iu a thousar.d impel 1 *, did you? Appealing tojlccords. Breckinridge editors and stump spea kers havo boon diligently and success fully searching through the records of tho groat statesmen of tho country to overthrow tho heresy of Squatter .Sover eignty and sustain the doctrine of pro tection. They havo found speeches, and quoted extracts from them, delivered by Clay, Calhoun, Webster, Berrien and other eminent tnon, dlrcotly boaring up on this point, and scarcely a Whig lea der has escaped their “eternal vigi* lanco.” « But they dony that John Bell, almost tho only one left, holds tho same opin ions. Now, wo make tho assertion, ami its truth and forco will striko tho tuitid ofovery man, that If Mr. Boll was no can didate our Brocklnridge friends would soloct from Au “record” tho very ex tracts which wo now appeal to, to prove him sound on this question. But it suits their purposo hotter to contradict porvcrt,and misrepresent. Bomb Market, Sept. 25th.—Cotton, good quality, lOcts. Bacon, clear sides, 10(S,17cts. Homs, 16cts.

Her Suri’ERiNos arr rnhep.—Miss Murtha Slack, of Augusta, who was sevorely burned at Cave Spring several weeks since, died at that ptneo on last Saturday. Savannah &> N. Y. Steamships.- See the -advertisements of the Crowell line to bo foumLin unolhor column The first clause of tlie fourth section of the platform is as follows: “That justice and policy forbid tho Federal Government to fostor ono branch of industry to tho detriment of any other,‘ or to cherish one portion to the injury of another portion of our com mon country.” And in thofaco of this Mr. Buchanan ay soon as ho enmo into ofllco recom mended that tho Tariffs bo raised in such a manner as would amount to fos toring and protecting tho manufactur ing interests of tho North to tho detri ment and injury of tho Southern States. It was in this way that this clauso was observed by a Democratic Presi dent. Tho second clauso of tho samo soction reads: “That ovory section of the country lias a right to demand and insist upon an equality of rights and privileges, and to complete and ample protection of persons ami property from domestic violence or foreign aggression” And yet when Virginia, invadod by hand of Northern traitors, her soil stainod with tho blood of her sons, and others still in tho hands of tho Invaders demanded of tho Government that pro tection which every Government bound to afford to its subjects, President Buchanan doubted bis constitutional author ity to interfere; and refused tho potition Thus this clauso has been obsorvod. Tho fifth section is as follows: “That it is tho duty of ovory branch of tho Government to eiforce and prac tise Ike strictest economy in conducting our public affairs, and that no more revenue ought to be raised t han is required to defray the necessary expenses of the Government, and for the gradunl but certain extinction of the public debt. lion. A. H. Stephens, denouncing the extravagance of the Government, a few yoars ago, Raid the expenditures in thirteen years had increased from $30,000,OOP to $73,000,000 per annum, and bolieved $40,000,000 an abundance for tho. 'National -expen^o. Robert Toombs, Andrew Johnson, Genoral Shields and Roger A. Pryor concurred in the opinion that ours was “the most corrupt Government on earth.” And all this under a Democratic Adminis tration and in the Taco of the fifth sec tion of their platform. Tho third section in the socond divis ion of the platform is as follows “That tho Democratic party will re sist all attempts at renewing in Congress or out of it, the agitation of the slavery ques tion, under whatever shape or color the at tempt may be made.” And yet wo have seen iu the last ses sion of Congress the Democratic party renewing the agitation of tho slavery question, by presenting a series of reso lutions demanding Congressional pro tection to slavery in the Territories wlxn:accessary, and at the same time de claring that it is not now necessary; and again the same party out of Congress, renewing the slavery agitation all over the country, making in a new platform tho some demand and still declaring it not to be necessary. Now we ask seriously, and hope the question will be pondered by the peo* pie, have they any reason to holiovo or Situation Wantri*.—A graduate ol a Northern College desires a situation to teach. .Satisfactory references will be givon. ttoo Advertisement.

Tho Washington Constitution pre sents the following outlino of the commorco of the United States for the last fiscal year ending 30th June, 1800, Tho grand result, it will he no ticed, is: An export trade of $400,1(17,-1(11 00 An import trado of 304,707,200 00 Balance of trade in favor of United States $38,370,252 00 Tho exports of tho flso.nl year, ending •Tune 30th. 1860, embracing iqieeic and American produce, amounted to $375,- 167*401 ; in addition to which we also exported about 27,000,000 of foreign produce—making nil of our exports $400,107,401, and exceeding our im ports for the samo period $38,370,252, the imports being $301,797,209. The Bpeoie and American produce ex ported wore as abovo stated $373,107,46100 Of this a’t the specie was 55,940,85000 From Honduras— •Capture of Gen* Walker* Tho Havana correspondent of tho Now Orleans I'rue Delta, in ft letter dated the 13th insb., gives the following ac count of tlie ; enpturo* of Gon. Walker Bud his companions by u- British war steAiner: ' ’■£ Rv tho Spanish steam war ship Fran cisco do Aris, arrived tho morning of the lltli Inst., fromTruxillo, Honduras, wo havo tho nows of tho capture of Walker and his companions, seventy in number, upon tho river Negro, where lie was pursued by tbo British war stea mer Icarus, and a schooner having on board detachments from tho army of Gen. Alvarez. They were taken back to Tmxillo, and put at tho tender dis position of tho Uouduras Government, with tho condition tlmt the seventy men who were in a most wretched sitm.tion from wounds and disease, should be al lowed to return to the United States, after taking an oath never to engage again in any ox)>cdition ugainst tho Slates of Central America, and the Con sular /.gent of the United States to pro- vido their roturn passage expenses— Walkor and Rudlcr to Ihj dealt with as tho laws of the lund and ID justice may determine. They have both been shot probably, before this reaches you, ns they were ill tho Castle, with the under standing that such was the ftff.o prede termined for them, on the morning of the departure of the Francisco do Aris. So closes the singular caicerof Win. Walker! A You.no Gun. UmniKs a Roiiiikii.—A feu days since three girls, about sixteen years of age, were arrested for robbing a man at a saloon iu tho vicinity oi Mcnmno street. Tho leader of the par ty. an intelligent mid very pretty girl, asked that u good lawyer l>e sent for, saying she had plenty of money to pay the best of counsel. Tho names of sov- eral legul gentlemen were mentioned, and among others, that of an eminent criminal lawyer, who resides in unolhor county, hut ha* an office in Boston.— She uionee said sho did not want him, nsslio know him. This attracted tho curiosity of tho officer to whom she hud made the request, and ho instituted in quiries about her, and learned tlmt tho girl was uu orphan, and the lawyer whom she did not want to see, her guar dian, having charge of considerable pro- } >erty belonging to her in another city, die ran away a few weeks ngo, and her whereabouts up to that time was not known, film camo direct to this city, and 1ms frequented lmuiits of vice at tlio West End. She was taken before tho polico court, convicted of tho rob bery, and sentenced to tho house of correction for six months. Subsequent ly upon loarning something of her his tory the court revised lierscntcnco, and the case was continued, in order that plans may bo adopted with a view of rescuing her from a life of vice.—Boston Traveler. . ^ A Man Whose Heart can iie Seen.— Vienna lias lately been visited by a phenomenon in human nature, llcro Is a man who has his heart laid Imre for the ins|iection of his fellow-men. The brcnst-bone ami ribs, owing to a strange malformation, not arching over, ni usual, tho central organ of tho body, the thin covering of tho skin allows the heart to ho easily discerned in its contiguous stages of notion. So slight is the texture of tho skin, tlmt the ebb and flow of tho ldood, und the rogular contraction of the two chambers, are palpable to tlie senso lioth of sight and touch. Herr Kugouo Groux, from Hamburg, for lids is the name of tlio individual, has increased tho oxpor mental significance of liis own corpus by tlio application to it of au electric appa ratus, showing the time taken u|i * several actions of tho inumhor in ques tion. Each time tho heart pumps up the life fluid, a bell rings. This lusvr no tune lias boon tho olfioct of great cu riosity, not only to tlio members of the medical profession, but to tho public in general. He 1ms been paraded in all the hospitals and colleges. The Fulc Mr. Luinsdcu ami Family The New Orleans Picnyuno has tho following statement of a colored boy, who was on tlio Lady Elgin, and was saved, concerning tho fa to of Col. Lums- den and family: “I saw Mr. Lumsden a few minutes before wo went down. Ho asked mo if thcro was much danger. ITls wife and family wore then standing near him.— His wife appeared vory’much frightened His son tola him he had hotter get a tablo loaf und be prepared for the worst. Ho did not do so howover, but told his family to stand wlioro they wore while ho wont to sco wlmt the danger was.— Mr. Lumsden loft. Tho son then ad vised his mother and sister to take oil* all their uppor clothing. Tlioy did not do so. .Soon after the Ouptuin came in to tlio cabin and advised tho passongers to secure each a state-room door and go out on tho qunrter deck, which all dhl except Mr. Lumsden’« family, who continued to wait for him Jn the cabin. In the meantime, young Lumsden got throe table leaves ready to float off “Tho boat thon went down, and I saw nothing nioro of them till I was in tlio water, whon the little girl caught hold of me and called out for nor father, and asked wltcro ho was. He answered here,’ and asked where sho was. A big wave then swopt ovor Us all, and when 1 came to tho surface again the little, girl wus washed away and 1 saw nothing moro of them.” Other statements, howover, uflirm that Col. L. and family wore seen on a rail; that the little girl was seen In the arms of Cupt. Wilson, and all weie drowned within n few feet of the shore. In Earnest.—A Cuban letter to the Clmrlcriton Mercury says a cargo of lmd been landed near Cunimns- io or two others have been cap tured. Government seems now in ear nest to put down the trado, obeying, no doubt, orders recently received from Madrid. .Several officials havo been disgraced lately, and the late Governor Sngua has been removed and order- to continue his service in Spain, for having allowed a cargo or two to ho embarked. Ho does not appear to much chagrined, ns, with $50,000 to $00,000 in his pocket, affairs can bo ar ranged pretty much to one’s satisfac tion, and in Spain more so. The Broderick Will.—Advices from California states that tho Broderick will was before the Probnto Court. Martin McDonnell, formerly Deputy Sheriff of New York, was sworn us witness for the contestants. Ho impeached tho ro- nutation for truth and voracity of A. A. PhilUna, ono ot tho contesting witnes ses. IIo swore that Ills renutation was bad; tlmt ho would not believo him under oath, mid that Phillips was a no torious Tom!>s lounger. Hon. Hoiikiit C.

IIo said : “I havo groat difficulty with my political friends n harmonizing upon platforms, and havi tendered them various pionosjtions.- 1 lmvo tendered thorn tho Florida plat form of 1847, and they would not tako it; tho Georgia platform of 1854, and they would not tako it ; the Alabama ultimatum of 1856, and tlioy would not tako it.

Frenoh* American and English Young Ladies. Tho last London Athonmtnh* in a ro- viow of a rrc nt French book, entitled “Marriage in tlio United States,” takes ocoasion to nmko tlio following re marks : No two nations do tlio same thing in tho same manner. Wo do not tHako coffee alike, wo do not dress alike tlio b'flekau naturcl, or even a coedoivbteu is not tho beof-steak of a London chop house; the Chinaman's cup of teu is a very difloront thing to that affected by Mrs. Soapsuds; tho Turk’s narghile has but littlo resemhlanco to tho Irishman’s cutty pi|M), and tlmt which seems the host way of loving und limiTyiiig to ono set of peoplo, horribly offends tlio in stincts and moralities of another. ’ the civilized Christian world there not ho a greater discrepancy in this last particular than between the French and American. From the fust look of lovo to tlio lust word qf marriage there is not a stage of the affair that is con ducted in the same way, not a round of the great ladder which* is licwn out of the same block. Thu French girl nover leaves her mother's side, unless, indeed she be brought up iu a convent. The Americnu young lady nelthor claims nor would submit to the most ordinary protection of friend or part lit. The French girl is married off hv her moth er, without oven the semhluneo of a consultation ; suitability or fortune and condition boing a much more impor tant matter than any such moonshine ns suitability of temper or tlio elective affinities. An American does hot* own husband-hunting single lmnded; ami if she does not tako quite the Initiative in die moment of proposing, doe* not hesitate to mako her preference ns un disguised as words could have made it.

The Niagara was very rough and tlio mist very thick, and tho Prince remained only half an hour. A Politician in a Predicament.— About two o’olock a. in., says tho Now York Journal of Commerce, a man,having uothing ou but a shirt, was seen run ning towards the Second Avenue Rail road Dopot, where ho arrived safe, but nearly frozen to death. A compassion ate individual, whom ho fortunately met at the dopot, kindly loaned him a pair of pants, and put him on the right track for home. It Appears that the gontleman had boon at the barbecue at Jones’ Wppds. whore he Imbibed rather too frebly, nnu finally.started for homo. On arriving at the foot of Fifty-third street, lie concluded he had reached liis destination, and thinking himself to be in his bed-room, he stripped and retired for tho night. After enjoying a few hours’ sleep, he awoke, and finding himself nearly frost bitten, he started and tho world, which I'orguv grave indiscraiion< whileshc will now severely punish I infraction of appearance*.

Not strict with our girls as aic the french, nor so lax its the Americans; not So liberal *»f social freedam to our wives as the ono, nor so niggardly as tho other; we think, as a pulriofiy mat ter of course. that wc have hit on the. exact golden mean, and shot our ar row into the very bull’s eye of the question. We sav. we give otir young ladies sufficient liberty to form their characters, and time itnd oppot tunity to know their own minds, \Ve do not marry thorn off’ to the first eligible bid der, like so many lender little doves sold, hoodwinked, iu tho temple; neither do we suffer them to roam tin- fi uided through tho hushamlh-ss desert, ko wild creatures seeking their prey. Womakeour bund*and-bond* elastic ynd the shadow of the broad maternal whig fur away j so that, by these meas ures, we secure a race of maidens us perfect in their fearless innocence a* our wives are flawless in their crystal purity. Our frionds across the chan nel, on thocontmry, prefer pretty dolls in tho one case, and matrimonial free booters in tho other; and our cousins to the West hold the best preparation for tlie fetters of marriage and muturni- ty to consist in a lawless license, and tjdidtmrotcction houdago and prudent cdUnspl^ mental slavery.

Tea Brands and tiieir Meaning.—In Taylor’s “Travels in China,” the signifi cations of somo of the names by-wliioh tho difTePent brands of Tens aro known are given,which are as follows—making duo allowance for tho changes and cor ruption they undergo, in form mid sound, in being Anglicized: “Hyson” means “boforo tho rains,*” or “flourish ing spring”—that is, early in tho spring, lienee it is often called “Young Hy son.” “Hyson Skin” is composed of the refuse of the other kinds, the na tive terms for which means “tea skins.” Refuso of a still coarser description, containing many nt >ms, is called “tea- bones.” “Bohoa” is the name of tho hills in tho region where it is collected. “Pekoe” or “Pecco,” means “white hairs”—the down on the tender leav “Powohong”—“folded plant.” “Sou chong”—“small plant.” “Twnnkny” is the namo of a small stream in tho province where it iB bought. “Congo” is from a term signifying “labor,” from tho coro required in its prepara tion. Prize Shooting in EuRora.—The city of Cologne is now holding a meeting of prize shooters. The highest prize will bo a castle on tho Rhine. Germans, English, Swiss, Belgians nnd Dutchmen are invited to attend. The castle is a magnificent-edifice, just opposite Cob- lentx. The Athens Banner announces that liuutl this mid Think* .Tho following short article from tlio Boston Courier of tho9th iust., addle.*#- *•« itself tu the sound patriuliMii and. practical good sense of every citizen of our country. Let every one read it, and think of it, and then do hi* duty.— { This dono, there is no ground to despair of the Republic, and just a* little to loubt the election of Bell und Ever ett : Extraordinary Admission.—Thcro is •tail intelligent liinii iu the United States today who doe* not know that tho election of John Bell of Tennessee, and Edward Everett of Massachusetts to the offices for which they have been nominated would do more to rostoro har mony iu the nation than the election of either of tho other three “tickets.” Jh out* State, Democrats and Republicans admit this iu private, and yet these men will insist upon following their party lenders. Hundreds of Republicans in this State will v.oto for Mr. Lincoln, ul- thougli incompetent for tho ofllco of President. Hundreds of Democrats rill vote for Mr. Dougin*, alt)tough they arc sure that ho cannot be the next President of tlio United States. But the conduct of these men—their want of State prido iu refusing to support their own fellow citizen, and tho most accomplished American statesman now living—their conduct, we say, is not. quite so extraordinary ns that of tho paper in Now York, “The World” which publicly admits that “Mr. Bell is best candidate for the Presidency in the field,” and tell* us that “there isV.o man in the country who is entitled to take rank with Mr. Everett,” in statesman ship. Still this journalist is an advoouto of the elevation of Abraham Lincoln und Hannibal Hamlin. Jf the World really believes “Mr. Bell is the host can didate in tho field,” nnd that Mr. Evor- ett is the superior of either oft he other three candidate* for tho Viee Presiden cy, it should counsel every cit izen to vote for those men. If nil who think ns tho World thinks should voto for tho Union nominees, they could he elected by tho people. This is proved by the indisputable fact thut there is no heart among the sup porter* of either of tho other candi dates. Nobody outside of Illinois ever seriously thought of nominating Mr. Lincoln. JIo is not Mr. Urooty'sciioico, He is the choice solely of the Wigwam molt. As for Mr. Hamlin, he was thrown upon tho ticket by tlie angry New Yorker* as an impediment to its success. Candidate* so selected ought not to bo elected. We trust that our fellow-citizens will take into consideration this state of af fairs, and with their votes in November defeat tho politicians and olect tho statesmen.
