The Demccmtlc Platform of New
Jersey.
The following are the maiu provisions
of the platform of the New Jersey Djmo
cratio Convention :
That the federal government is one of
limited powers, derived solely from the
Constitution, and that nil violations cf
that Constitution by persons elected to ad.
minister the government are dangerous
to liberty, infringements upon the rights
of the people, and a violation of the uaih
of office taken to support, it ; that the late
fratricidal war is chargeable to the aboli
tionists cf the North and the eeoessionists
of ihe South ; that we are in favor of the
old system of a gold and silver currency,
and of re-establi-hing the currency of
this country upon is old basis ; that the
Smtes are in the Union, and their acts of
secession null and void, ami they have
not, by reason of the war, tost any rights
that were guaranteed to them by the
Coustitutiou i that the right of each
State to legislate and control its own do
mestic institutions according to its own
.judgment exoluaiveiy, is essential to that
balance of power on which the perfection
and endurance of our political fabric de
pends ; that we are most emphatically
opposed to negro suffrage, and entirely
agree with President Johnson that the
people of each State have the right to
oontrol that subject as they deem best ;
that taxes ought to be equalized, and that
United Status bonds should be taxed like
oihor property; that we are in favor ol
Ihe right of each State to ooutrol its own
militia, Ihe right of the people to keep
and bear arms, and Ihe admission into
ihe Congress of the United States of all
ptvsotis duly elected according to (lie laws
of their respective States ; that lo de
oiease the national debt requires the re
duotion of the standing army, a diminu
tion of governoietil officials, an (realiza
tion of taxation and rigid eoonomy ; that
thanks and sympathy are extended to the
soldiers; that, soldiers should be paid the
whole of promised bounties ; that all the
soldiers should receive bounties alike;
that special tbanks are due the New Jer
sey soldiers ; that we reiterate our faith
tu the Monroe doctrine, and that we are
in favor of enforcing it, by arms, it neces
sary, against any foreign monarch!*!
power, and that we denounce the seeming
acquiescence of the administration in the
attempted subjugation of Mexico, as in
imical to our national interests and der
ogatory to our national integrity ; that
while we deprecate the weakness of the
administration in permitting the illegal
arrests us citizens by military power in
States where the cotirts are open, the sus
pension of the writ of habeas corpus, in a
time of “ profound peace, ’’ and toe inter
ference by the military with the freedom
of elections—and while we regret that a
general amnesty has not been extended to
all rebels who abandon their cause, and
swear allegiance to the old Union, we are
yet willing to give to the executive our
aid and sympathy in any constitutional
efforts fur restoring to the Southern
States the exercise of their original rights
and powers, and consequently to the
whole country its wonted good feeling and
prosperity ; that the State administration
isr the past, three years meets a hearty
spproval.
Annual Food of a Alan*
She statistics of tbeQuarlennsstei’sDa
partuieot iu tbe army go to prove that
each individual consumes about two and
a quarter pounds of dry food daily, about
three-fourths vegetable and one-fourth
animal, making an annual consumption of
about 800 pounds Os fluids, including
every variety of beverage, he swallows
about 1500 pounds, aud taking the
amount, of air which he consumes at 800
pounds, the result will stow that the food,
water aud air which a man receives
amounts in the aggregate to more than
•3,000 pounds a year, that is a ton and a
half, or more than twenty times his own
weight. In view of the present prioe of
provisions these figures are rather start
ling, but they are indisputable, attdonly
serve to show what a vast amount of fuel
is requited to keep the human machinery
in vigorous operation.

political Sentiment in Ohio.
“ Cousin Norma” on the 4ih, from
Kenton, Ohio, thuß writes to the Macon
Telegraph :
The political condition of this o uuttry
is very a reconcilable to tbe ititereu’S of
the South The greater portion of the
State, that 1 have visited, is radicalized
to the fullest degree. A most disgusting
deniiiiieut us negro equality is apparent.
Li some sections the negro is invited iu
table with while pe. pie. Helms the
all the deference due a mau who may
sometime have » vole. This appearance,
however, has » limit. Repugnance to
praciioat amalgamation is yet a virtue in
tbe most of communities here, nod espe
cially is it cherished amongst ladies ; but
the negrophobista are imbued with the
ide* of practical equality, and God only
kuowd wbat the result of their teachiug
and familiarization to the horrible dac
trines of admixture may produce
Abotuioiunni was ouco a monstrosity
here, now it is u cardinal virtue and
principle of morality and religion Bdu
cation has been prostituted to one cardi
nal principle, the destruction of slavery,
and now that the 01-jeol of the people has
been accomplished,they know not what to
do with the elephant, but their emphatic
decision is that ibe negro must rod find a
lodgment ou their soil, that he must be
kept away from them and placed or re
turned wbero he oan be a nuisance only
to those wbo are the least able to suppoit
or use them.
A clialr for President .Totinusn.
Our readers will remember that Seth
Kiuman, the California hunter, presented
an elk horn chair, ot curious construction,
to Abraham Lincoln, Mr. Kiomau has
now const) ucted a chair, to be presented
to President Johueon—a ebair that sur
passes all his previous efforts. It is made
of two grizzly bears, oaptured by himself.
But we almost despair of giving anything
like au iiiiblligent description of ike ar
ticle. Suffice it to say that the fonr legs,
with the feet and claws in perfection, are
those of a huge grizzly bear, while tho
arms are the arms and paws of another
grizzly ; the back and sides are also
ornamented wiib immense claws. The
seal is soft, and exceedingly comfortable,
but tbe great “feature” of the institution
is, that by touching a cord, the bead of a
monster grizzly bear, with extended jaws
will dart in front from under tbe seat,
snapping and gnashing its teeth as naiu
rai as life. It is wonderful in execution,
and a worthy souvenir from tbe hunter of
the Rocky Mountains to the Chief Magis
tral of the nation.— Montour American.
K<tr.luim’< Account of Himself.
It is known that Ketchum bas been ar
rested. He gives tbe following aoaouutof
himself:
“He speaks with entire freedom of his
operations lie says that at one time he
owned property worth six millions of
dollars.
“ His losses began with the decline in
the premium on gold He says that tbe
amount which was involved in his vari
ous transactions —bis ‘ liabilities, ’ as be
says—are about four million dollars.
“ He would have found it easy, he de
clares, to pay off an indebtedness of two
and a half millions.
“ The sum found with him was
$48,000.”
An earnest call is made for an increase
of tho endowmcul of the Princeton Theo
logical Seminary. The salaries of its
professors demand an addition of $57,000
to the fund: the war has destroyed ten
or the scholarships, which $30,000 will
be required to restore; $50,000 more are
needed to replenish tbe entirely exhausted
luod for assisting the students to meet
ibe increased cost of board, and to afford
means to make the repairs upon the
building and premises. The corps of
professors has also necessarily been en
larged to keep pace with the increase of
btadents.
