In 1856, ho ran upon the Cin cinnati Platform, which ho heartily endors ed and defended. In 1860, ho is the can didate of a faction who disrupted the Demo cratic party nnd seceded nt Charleston be- <-auso it re-aftirined the Cincinnati Plat form pure nnd simple ! The ladder by which Mr. Breckinridge ascended to the Vice- Presidency in 185C, he contemptuously kick* front under him in I860 when he as pires to the higher position of the Presi dency. No one, of course, is verdant enough to believe that Mr. Breckinridge now.spurns what he hugged to his boaom in 1850, from any real detestation of its ini quity, or any prcacul conviction that bis stepping-atune to power in 185G was a ‘‘vile ineuna” which ho cannot honorably u*e any longer; but it is apparent that ho left the whole matter to tho only parlies that would then take him for tho Vice-I'ie*iden- cy, and now for the Presidency, add accep ted in both'instances the directly antago nistic pisiform* which they required hiru to ascend ! It is averred in hohnlf of so politician*, that they did not •■true the Cincinnati Platform squatter aovereignty, but that become convinced thul it upheld that here sy, they repudiate and renounce it. This claim, however, cannot he set up for Mr. Breckinridge, lie declared, in 1856, in the most positivo manner, that he under stood it a* demanding for tho people of the Territories the right to admit or exclude >Uvery while in their Territorial condition. Here is what ho *aid : I happened to he in Congress .when tho Nebraska bill passed, and gave it my voice -ote, and because it did vvliat it did, It acknowledged the right of the Peo ple of the Territory to settle the question tor themselves! and not because 1 supposed, hat 1 do not now believe, that it legislated slavery into the Territory.

Ellis, the Democratic nominee for re-clrc- tion, was very bitter in denouncing the xcciduM alter tho split at Charleston, Buy ing that it wa* a happy riddance for tho Democratic patty, aud ho hoped they would never come back ! He too, however, adopt ing tho policy of the Standard, now rofuars express a preference for either Douglas Breckinridge, and the Democratic press of the State appear to be well content to let him occupy this equivocal position. He will of course declare for Douglas a* soon as the election is over. D. K.
