This platform was adopted by a vote ot more than three tu one, and of those who voted In the minority, aot mro than a <loxuu disputed from the principle# embodied in the resolution#. The grout body us those who opposed the plat form; did *o beenuw they disapproved the policy ‘ of instructing th© delegate* tu the ('hariustou Convention, and not because they did not endorse the principle# enunciated In tho platform.

Miters, when thu Union of thu party or es the bliiles, is t/> be preserved by concussion. The pnth of safety to (ho Dwdoeratht party, t* tho union of the Status, aud tho rights of the south, lies only in a firm adherence to right. Surrender that for (He sukc of harmony, and yen adapt a policy which inevitably lures u* to destruction ; for jmit so miru a# human nature is selfish, just so sure do©* thu disposition of the Vwlh tu op press un, increase w ith ©very concession which we lunko to her rapacity.

If, howuvor,such a course un >ur pert should not stay the torrent of Northern fanaticism, the sooner we know it, . und prepare tu incut it by a sterner remedy, the better for us. During the session of the ConveatkfU.Mr. Yan cey made owe of Ills best speeches; and when I .-my this, you will under.-lund that it whs a great spuuoli.
