r V 1 l Political. NATIONAL PLATFORM AMERICAN* PARTY, /Jj adopted by the late Philadelphia Con vention. At • regular meeting of the National Council of the American party, begun and held at Philadelphia, on the 5th June, A. D. 1855, (lie following was adopted as the Platform and Principles of the Organization: I. The acknowledgment of that Almi ghty Being who rules over the Universe who presides over the Councils of Nations—who conducts the affairs of men, and who, in every step by which we have advanced to the character of an independent notion, has distinguished us Uy some token of Providential agency. II. —The cultivation ami development of a sentiment of profoundly intense American feeling ; of passionate attach inent to our country, its history and its institutions; of admiration for the purer days of our National existence; of ven eration for the heroism that precipitated our Revolution; and of emulation of the virtue, wisdom and patriotism that framed our Constitution and first suc cessfully applied its provisions. III. —The maintenance of the Union c>f these United States as the paramount political good; or, to use the language of Washington, “ the primary object of patriotic desire.” And hence:— 1st. Opposition to all attempts to wea- kun or subvert it. 2d. Uncompromising antagonism to every principle of policy that endangers it. 3d. The advocacy of an equHalile adjustment of all political differences which threaten its integrity or perpe tuity. 4th. The suppression of all tendencies to political division, founded on “ geo graphical discrimination, nr on the belief that there is a real difference of interests and views" between the vari ous sections of the Union. 5th. The full recognition of the rights of the several States, as expressed and reserved in the Constitution; and a careful avoidance, by the General Government, of all interference with their rights by-legislative or executive action. IV. —Obedience to the constitution of the United States, as the supreme law of the land, sacredly obligatory apon all its parts and members ; and steadfast resistance, to the spirit of inno vation upon its principles, however spe cious the pretexts. Avowing that in all doubtful or dispute 1 points it may only be legally ascertained and expounded by the Judicial power of the United States. And, as a corollary to the above:— 1. A habit of reverential obedience to the laws, whether National, States, or Municipal, until they are either repeal ed or declared unconstitutional by the fxroper authority. 2. A tender and sacred regard for those acts of statesmanship, which are to be contra-distinguished from acts of ordinary legislation, by the fact of their 1 being of the nature of compacts and agreements; and so, to be considered a ifixrd and settled national policy. V. —A radical revision and modifica lion of the laws regulating immigration,| and the settlement of immigrants. Of fering to the honest immigrant who, from love of liberty or hatred of oppressing, seeks an asylum in the United State a friendly reception and protection. But unqualifiedly condemning the transmis sion to our shores, of felons and pau pers. VI. —The essential modification of the naturalization laws. The repeal by the Legislatures of the respective States, of all State laws al lowing foreigners not naturalized to vote. The repeal, without retroactive opera tion, of all acts of Congress making grants of land to unturalized foreig ners, and allowing them to vote in the Territories. VII. —Hostility to the corrupt means by which the leaders of party have hitherto forced upon us our rulers and our political creeds. Implacable enmity against the pre valent demoralizing system of rewards for political subserviency,and of puniah inent for political independence. Disgust for the wild hunt nfter office which characterizes the age. These on the one hand. On the other: Imitation of the practice of the purer days of the Republic; and admiration of t lie maxim that •* office should seek the man, and not man the office,’’ and of the rule that, the just mode of ascertain ing fitness for office is ibe capability, the faithfulness, and the hone.-ty of the in cumbent or candidate. VIII. —Resistance to the aggressive |Mtliey and corrupting tendencies of the Roman Catholic Church in our country. l>y the advancement to all political sta tions—executive, legislative, judicial or •lij Lunatic—of those only who do not hold civil allegiance, directly or indirect ly, to any foreign power, whether civil or ecclesiastical, and who arc Americans by birth, education and tra ning:—thus fulfilling the maxim, “ Americans only s$HAi.L GOVERN Am ERICA.” The protection of all citizens in the legal and proper exercise of their civil and religious rights Mid privileges; the maintenance of the right of every man :o the full, unrestrained and p—.eeful enjoyment of his own religious opinion.- and worship, and a jealous resistance ol all attempts^by any sect, denomination or church to obtain an ascendancy over nay other in the State, by means of any -pecial privileges or exemption, by any ,>o!it*cal combination of its members, or !>y a division of their civil allegiance with any foreign power, potentate, or ecclesi astic. fH* "'iM ill ion of the clmrac- ire, by elc- rcspousible position men of higher qualifications, purer morals,and more unselfish patriot ism. X. —The restriction of executive pat ronage—especially in the matter of ap pointments to office—so far as it may be permitted by the Constitution, and con sistent with the public good. XI. —The education of the youth of our country in schools provided by the State; which schools shall be common to all, without distinction of creed or party, and free from any influence or direction of a denominational or partizan character. And, inasmuch as Christianity by the Constiutions of nearly all the States: by the decisions of the most eminent judici al aulhoritiea; and by the consent of the people of America, is considered an ele ment of our political system ; and as the Holy Bible is at once the source of Chris tianity, and the depository and fountain of all civil and religious freedom, we op pose every attempt to exclude it from the schools thus established in the States. XII. —The American party having arisen upon the ruins and in spite of the opposition of the whig and Democratic parties, cannot be held in any manner responsible for the obnoxious acts or violated pledges of either. And the sys tematic agitation of the Slavery ques tion by those parties having elevated sectional hostility into a positive element ;of political power, and brought our insti tutions into peril, it has therefore become the- imperative duty of the American party to interpose, for the purpose of giving peace to the country and perpe tuity to>the Union. And as experience has shown it impossible to reconcile opin ions so extreme as those which separate the disputants, and as there can be no dishonor in submitting to the laws, the National Council has deemed it the best guarantee of commoft justice and of future peace, to abide by and maintain the existing laws upon the subject of Slavery, as a filmland conclusive set tlement of that subject in spirit and in substance; And regarding it the highest duty to avow their opinions upon asubject so im poftant, in distinct and Unequivocal terms, it is hereby declared as the sense of this National Council, that Congres possesses no power, under the Constitu tion, to legislate apon the subject of slavery in the States where it does or may exist, or to exclude any State from admission into the Union, because its Consthoiwm docs or does not recognize the institution of slavery as a part of its social system; and expressly pretermit- ting any expression of opinion upon the power of Congress to establish or prohibit slavery in any Territory, it is the sense ofi the National Council ihnt Congress ought not to legislate upon the subject of slavery within the Territories of the United States and that any interference by Congress with slavery as it exists in the District o£ Columbia, would be a violation of the spirit and intention of the compact by which the State of Marylan ceded the District to the United States and a breach of the National faith. XIII. —The policy of the Govern ment of the United States, in its relations with foreign governments, is to exact justice from the strongest, and do justice lo the weakest • restraining, by all the |iower of the government, all its citizens from interference with the internal con cerns of nations with whom we are at peace. XIV. —This National Council declares that all the principles of the Order shall he henceforward everywhere openly avowed ;and that each member shall be at liberty to make known the existence of the Order, and the fact tlmt he him self is a member; and it recommend; that there be no concealment of the place of meeting of subordinate councils. E. B. Bartlett, of Kentucky, President of National Council. C. D. Dkshler, of New Jersey, Corresponding Secretary. James M. Stephens, of Maryland, Recording Secretary. hostility to the constitutional rights of i he South ; and all persons who pirtake in such opposition as unfit to be recog nized as members of the American Party. Resolved 7th,—That we concur in the opinion expressed in the meeting of our fellow citizens of Columbus, held on the 26th day May,1855, that the time has arrived when our fellow citizens should cease from their dissensions, and forget the differences which have sepa rated them ; and that a common danger and common enemy should unite us for our common defense and safety, and that we wilt cheerfully co-operate with ell who may unite with us in the endeavor to accomplish so noble and patriotic an object. Resolved 8th,—That the Western and Atlantic Rail Road was projected and built for the general good of the whole people of Georgia; and utterly condemn any policy which has sought, or which may seek to make it subservient to the interest or purpose of any politi cal party whatever. Resolved 9th,—That we are in favor of the acquisition of Cuba, whenever it can be accomplished upon fair and honorable grounds, or whenever any European Power shall seek to make it a point from which to assail the rights and institutions of any portion of this coun try ; and that we strongly condemn the vascillatiug policy of the Administration, as calculated, if not designed, to defeat the acquisition of that Island.

As an internal and external remedy it is truly a source of JOY TO THE WORLD. One positive proof of its efficacy is, that tbe sales have constantly increased, and wholly upon its own merits, as the proprie tors have not resorted to advertising to gain for it the rank it now holds among the great number of preparations of the present time. The effect of tbe Paiu Killer upou the pa tient, when taken internally in cases ot Colds, Cough, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dyssentery and other affections of the sys tem, has been truly wonderful, and lias now for it a name among medicinal preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in removing pain, as an external remedy, in cases of burns, bruises, sores, sprains, cuts, sting of insects and other causes of suffering, has secured for ft such « host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that ft will be handed down to posterity as one of the greatest medical discoveries of the- nine teenth century.
