THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM. The following is the Platform adopted by the National Democratic Convention at New York: The National Democratic Party, in National Convention assembled, reposing its trust in the intelligence, patriotism and discriminating jus tice of the people, standing upon the Constitu tion as the foundation and limitation of the pow- ors of the Government and the guarantee ol the liberties of the citizen, and recognizing the ques tions of slavery and secession as having been settled for all time to come by the war or the vol untary action of the Southern States in Consti tutional Conventions assembled, and never to be renewed or re-agitated, do, with the return of peace, demand— 1st. The immediate restoration of all the St ates to their rights in the Union under the Constitu tion, and of civil government to tiie American people. 2d. Amnesty for all past political offenses, and the regulation of the elective franchise in the States by the citizens, and the payment of the public debt of the United States as rapidly as practicable. 3d. All money drawn from the people by taxa tion, exceDt so much as is requisit e for the ncces- sitios of the Government economically adminis tered, to be honestly applied to sucli payment, and, whore the obligations of the Government do not expressly stafco upon their face, or the law- under which they were issued does not provide that they shall be paid in coin, they ought in right and justice to bo paid in the lawful money of the United States. 4tli. Equal taxation of every species of prop erty, according to its real value, including Gov ernment bonds and other public securities. 5th. One currency for the Government and the people, the laborer and the office-holder, the E ensioner and the soldier, the producer and the ond-liolder. 6th. Economy in the administration of the Government; the reduction of the standing army and navy; the abolishment of the Ereeumen’s Bureau, and all political instrumentalities de signed to secure negro supremacy; the simplifi cation of the system and discontinuance of the inquisitorial boards of assessing arid collecting internal revenue, so that the burden of taxation may be equalized and lessened, tiie credit <>1 the Government and the currency made good, the repeal of all enactments for enrolling the fcitate militia into national forces in time of peace, and ataritr for revenue upon forign imports, and sucli equal taxation under the internal revenue laws as will afford incidental protection to domestic manufactures, and as will, without impairing the revenue, impose the least burden upon and best promote and encourage the great industrial in terests of the country. 7th. The reform of abuses in the administra tion, the expulsion of corrupt men from office, the abrogation of useless offices, the restoration of rightful authority to and the independence of the Executive and Judiciary Departments of the Government, the subordination of the military to the civil power, to the end that the usurpa tions ol Congress and the despotism of the sword may cease. 8th. Equal rights and protection for naturalized nud native-born citizens at home and abroad.— The assertion of American nationality, which shall command the respect of foreign* powers, furnish an example and encouragement to people struggling for national integrity, constitutional liberty, and individual rights, and the mainten ance of the rights of naturalized citizens against the absolute doctrines of immutable allegiance, and the claim of foreign powers to punish them for alleged crime committed beyond their juris diction. In demanding these measures and reforms, we arraign the Radical party for the disregard of right, and the unparalleled oppression and tyran ny which have marked its career. After the most solemn and unanimous pledge of both Houses of Congress to prosecute the war exclusively for the nia.ntenance of the govern ment and the preservation of the Union under the Constitution, it has repeatedly violated that must sacred pledge under which was rallied that uoble volunteer army which carried our flag to victory. instead of restoring the Union, it has, so far as was ip its power, dissolved it, and subjected ten States in a time of profound peace to military despotism and negro supremacy. It lias nullified the right of trial by jury. It has abolished the writ of habeas corpus— that most sacred writ of liberty. It has overthrown the freedom of speech and of the press. It has substituted arbitrary seizures and ar rests and military trials and secret star-chamber inquisitions for constitutional tribunals. It has disregarded in time of peace the right of the people to be free from search ond seizure. It has entered the post and telegraph offices, and even the private rooms of individuals, and seized their private papers and letters, without any specification or notice or affidavit, as requir ed bv the organic law. It lias converted the American capitol into a bastile. It has established a system of spies and official espionage to which no constitutional monarch v of Europe would now dare to resort. It has abolished the right of appeal in isnpor rights of the white man Over this hell ish declaration Bullock rejoices. Meade directs District Commanders to instruct Bost Commanders in tivir duties-* and As has been our practice since the war.' we among other things they must he told attended the October Term of Carroll Superior j that “ they must at all hazards pr-serve Court. The Court opened on Mmlfty of last week—Judge John S. Bigby presiding. Inas much as we did not arrive until evening, we did not hear the charge -to the Gr.-iad Jury, and hence,, cannot pronounce upon it. In fact, the business of the Court was so limited, ow ing to the absence of attorneys, that no impor tant cases were submitted to the Court and Ju lies, and therefore, the new' Judge had no op portunity to display his learning and acquain tance with the law or duties of his position. During the sitting of the Court, which, lasted from Monday until Wednesday, noon, three negroes, one white man. and one white wo- man, plead guilty to crimes with which they were charged, and appropriate sentences pass- upon them. One negro was sentenced to hard labor in the Penitentiary, fur the term of one year, for the crime of Burglary in the day time. One negro man, named Alliik Alexander, and a white woman, named Jane Rosser, plead guil ty to the charge of fornication, and were fined each fifty dollars, and in default of payment, will be imprisoned in jail, in separate cells, for three months. The white woman is the most debased creature we have ever seen. She made a full confession, and justified herself by saying that she did not think she was doing wrong— ; that she believed she had a right to marry a negro, and declared sucli marriages were fre quent in Atlanta. IIis honor, in passing sen tence, properly characterized her case by de daring it “ humanity sunk to the bottom.” .Jane Rosser is tbec.vv.idow of a Confederate sol dier, and has a daughter sixteen years of age, who, owing to her mother’s conduct, is forced to associate with negroes only. As usual, political excitement runs high in Carrol). Whatever may he the faults or vir tues of the people, we believe it is conceeded that tiie citizens of no county, in Georgia, with equal mail facilities, are as well informed in politics as the citizens of Carroll. They not on ly understand the issues of the day, but, with all the tact of generals of opposing armies— know the weak points of their adversaries. Thus, the Radical candidate for Congress is odious to the whites of both parties, and the Republicans know, to defend him from assaults, and at the same time assail the Hon. Hugh Buchanan, the popular Democratic candidate, would be an undertaking that would cause the overwhelming defeat of their Presidential and Congressional nominees—and hence are mum when the name of Caldwell is mentioned. On the othei hand, the Democrats, well knowing and appreciating this advantage they enjoy over their opponents, are seeking, by all the means in their power, to force a discussion of Caldwell and Buchanan’s claims. Some of the Democratic leaders have gone so far as to of fer five dollars for a white Carroll Caldwell man, and so far, not one of the Carroll Repub licans have claimed the reward. We give this instance as one of many, displaying the shrewdness with which both parties conduct the canvass. It is proper to state in this connection, that both sides concede Carroll to the Democracy, by majority' ranging from 200 to 500. We con versed with numbers of men, who never before cast a Democratic vote, but aje now openly and boldly advocating the election of Seymour and Blair. If the Congressional election is postponed, as we believe it is, until February, Buchanan's majority, in Carroll, will reach eight hundred, for the best men of the Radical party in Car- roll dislike and loathe Caldwell and will not trouble themselves to go to the polls on any other than the Presidential election day, to vote for him against Buchanan. The truth is, Mr Buchanan is immensely popular with both paities, and the whites of the Radical party cannot be induced or driven to the polls to vote against him, uuless on a day of high political excitement. Notwithstanding the Carroll stockholders were not represented in the last annual meet ing ; still they are deeply interested in tin- completion of the Savannah, Grifiiu and North Alabama Railroad. From their zeal we believe they.would aid its construction, to the utmost of their ability. They feel greatly in need ol a load, and this is their only hope. During out stay at Carrollton the subject of trade to Nevraau and Atlanta, was fully and | calamity. Upon his native South, where ; lie was beloved for the many high quali ties which stamped him as one of nature’s n -blemen the announcement will fall like a shadow of deep darkness. In Georgia j iiis past glory and renown. Abroad has given a distinctive appreciation usally attend death from this cause. The telegram which conveyed the news of the sudden death of this illustrious Georgian, has cast a gloom over the en tire State.

In brief the military power is again supreme. This is the end to which ‘Tlecou'truction” has brought us. In this vile work of placing Georgia un der the heel of military satraps, Buiioek 1ms aided. In other paragraphs of the same order, Meade unasked, takes upon himself to read the white people a lee ure and in mockery of their weakness concludes with the declaration that lie too will nut be re strained by “technical points.” Very wcdl General, you may insult us with your advice now and declare your inten tion, under t he specious pretext of “pre serving the peace,” of disregarding the law of Georgia, yet sir, the day maybe near at hand w hen your heart will be made to tremble before its moje~ty T and power to turn bis rejoicing into weeping. If however, Grant, Meade and Bullock’s co conspirator is elected Presideut of the United States, and these sentiments so disloyal to the genius of the American Republic, go unrebuked, the whites of the Soutli must with courage prepare to meet the fate of the unhappy Poles.— But thank God for the fact, that if we must endure the miseries of Pulaski’s countrymen, our wicked despoilers must share the unenviable fate of down trodden Russians, for despotism can not be limited to ten States. All the people of this con tinent must eventually share the same fate. Let the Radicals in their efforts to deprive us of our liberties, fill with bay onets holes the Federal Constitution, and they will find out when it is too late, that the torn instrument cannot shelter them in their day of trial.

Early in the campaign, we organized a very tine Central Club in Franklin, appointed effi cient Executive Committees, and did every thing else that a most thoroughly aroused pa triotic zeal, of an intelligent community could dictate, for the advancement of the Democratic cause, and the promotion of our tottering country. Clubs have been formed in nearly all the Militia Districts, comprising almost Then Bullock too it ay see cause the entire lists of their white inhabitants. 1 so gentle ami so good, and to offer our j sincere condolence to his afflicted rela- | lions unto whom the tidings of his death ; sounds like the knell of doom. To Georgia his loss in the present cri- : sis of affairs is irreparable. iiis is i t “One of the few, immortal names, That were not born to die.” Speakiug of Gen. Howell Cobb’s death the Atlanta Intelligencer, says. With profound regret which will be shared by every true son and daughter of Georgia, we learn the sudden death in New York on the uiorniug of Friday, the One of the Districts bordering on Alabama, ,, , , , f . - 9th instant, or General Ilowell Cobb, it known far and near, as Blue-shin, which has been slandered by the Radicals, as being large- ! !y in favor of their party, now produces to the j Central Club, through their organization, an j almost unanimous list of the entire inhabi- | t ints in favor of our cause. I mention this particularly because it has heretofore been considered the stronghold of Radicalism in Heard. Radicalism in Heard is almost in the last stage of‘‘political consumption,” Its form is ■‘emaciated And penitent.” It is confined al most exclusively to the colored population, and many of them declare for us. The great er part of its white adherents are becoming wearied with its burdens, to say nothing of its character, and are manifesting a desire to “ g*'t right.” Jonh. H. Caldwell has been visiting these regions, under the pretense of holding nigger camp-meetings. But we fear not hi-s influence, for his former followers are becoming convinc ed that he lias only “stolen the livery of heav en to serve the devil in.” Your gallant Buc hanan need fear nothing in Heard. Democrats. On Tuesday the States of Pennsylva nia, Ohio, Indiana and Nebraska, voted. Our latest news is that all but Indiana, have certainly voted Radical, and in this litter State the Democrats, have in thir ty-seven counties, gained seven thousand and claim the State by 1,500 majority, while the Radicals claim it by 2400. In Pennsylvania the Ridicals have elected 15 Congressmen and the Democrats 8—a Democratic gain of 2. In Ohio the Radi cals elected 13. and the Democrats G Con gressman—a Democratic gain of 3. Ne braska lias gone Radical. Thus it will be seen that while the Radicals are in one sense triumphant, yet the Democrats have made gains every where. chances of Grant’s election look favora ble.

This is therefore to ciie and admonish all • the fifth section in said county, containin': “ Detachments, when necessary, may lie made to points in the vicinity of each pns. ; but ill no case, nor on any pretext whatever, will be sent without a commissioned officer, who will be fully instructed by his post com mander. “ The troops will be considered as in tiie field, and supplied with the necessary camp equipage ; the men to be furnished with com mon tents, if practicable, and if not practica ble, with shelter tents. Commanding officers are permitted to hire quarters, temporarily, when it can be done for reasonable rates ; but this will not preclude the necessity of carrying tents, as the commands, in all cases, must be in readiness to move at tbe shortest notice, with all supplies required for their efficiency. “ District Commanders will instruct Post Commanders in their duties, and the relative position of the civil and military powers. They will impress on Post Commanders that they are to act in aid and co-operation, and in su bordination to the civil authorities ; that they are to exercise discretion and judgment, unbi ased by politicai or other prejudices ; that their object should be exclusively to preserve the peace and unhold law and order, and they must be satisfied such is the object of the civil officer c.iliing on them for aid ; they must in all cases, where time will permit, apply for instruction to superior authority, but they must at all haz ards preserve the peace, and not be restrained by technical points, when, in their conscien tious judgment under the rules above set forth, it is their duty to act. Post Commanders on being notified of the proposed holding of po litical meetings, may send an officer, and if necessary, a detachment, to watch the pro ceedings and see that the peace is preserved - “To the people of the several States compos ing the Department, the Major General Com manding appeals that they wiil co-operate with him and the civil authorities in sustaining law and order, in preserving the peace and in avoiding the scenes of riot aud bloodshed, and the wanton destruction of life and property, which ha< already in some instances, been en acted in the Department. He urges abrii- nence from all infiamatory and incendiary ap peals tr f Che passions; discountenancing the keeping open of liquor shops on days of politi cal meetings and of election ; the obstaining from carrying arms, and asserting the indi vidual right of construing laws by force of arms. No just cause is ever advanced by re sort or violence. Let there be charity and for bearance among political opponents, whatever may be the result; let each good citizen deter mine that all who, under the law, have the right to the ballot shall exercise it undisturb ed. If there are disputed points of law, let them be referred to the Courts, and let not mobs or political clubs, or other irresponsible bo-- dies, construe and undertake to execute the law. This appeal is made in the earnest hope that the M ijor General Commanding can rely on the good sense and correct judgment of the mass of the people, and that he will not be compelled to resort to the exercise of the pow er with which he is intrusted, and which ha i will most reluctantly employ.
