Tbe following series of resolutions were adopted at the "platform” of the Virginia Whigs atthoir recent State Convention : Resolved,' That the reckless extravagance of ihe preceding and present Administrations of tho Fed eral Government, by which the public expendi tures have been increased from, fifty to near one handrod millions of dollars, and the public debt so greatly enlarged, is a wrong that must be correct ed and should be rebuked. 2. That the recommendations of the President that Congress shall divest itself of ibe war and treaty-making powers and confer them upon him self, subjecting, at the snine time, the army and navy to bis control, coupled with the proposition for enormous appropriations out of the publio’Trea- sury to carry out his views, are the most astound ing that have-been'ever submitted to the consid eration of the American people, nnd call for tbe most unequivocal condemnation that the public voice can pronounce^ .- In our relations with other States we recognise all thosa international obliga tions which opposiiiotiftts a member of tbe great family of notions imp-mes oh u*, and we would ever conform to the .requirements cf these obliga tions. • 3. That we are opposed jo the doctrine of “free trade and direct taxation,” maintaining thntre- : venae sufficient fur an economical administration of the.Government ought, to be raised by specific duties on foreign importations; and, in adjusting a tariff, we hold that it is the duty of Congress to make such discriminations as will afford to Ameri can industry the incidental advantages io which it is justly entitled., 4. That the public lands are held by thr General Government ih trust for the benefit cf all the States; that such ^deposition should be made of them as will enure equally. to the benefit of all, by a r diitntmtion oCthe proceods of tbe sale there of; that Virginia,>ho gave most and has receiv ed least, should .now be allowed to have . her just proportion, and that any pnrty.. that opposes this is opposed to the best interests of the State, &Dd h allows, if it does not favor, a oontinnation of the heavy taxes which afflict h r people. 6. That, in respect to the Territories, we adhere to the principles of the compromise measures of 1850. We repudiate the modern - doctrines of "squatter sovereignty” and- “alien^enffrnge," and hotd that to the inhabitants of Ihe Territqrifes, who are lawful citizens of tho United States/ be longs the right, when they come to’form a State Constitution, to fashion tbeir domestic institutions . according to their own pleasure, with the.privi lege of admission into the Union npon equal terms with the citizens of the other States whenever they have the requisite population for one member of. the House of Representatives. 6. That by the unanimous endorsation of the present Administration, the Democratic Conven tion of this State lately held at Petersburg havo assumed the responsibility of , all the errors .and -misdeeds of which we complain, and upon their party and their nominees the public judgment must be pronounced. . . .' 7. That the Hon. John Letcher, in his declared willingness to divide this ancient Common wealth for the purpose of exterminating slavery from the section in-which he resided, committed an offence wbioh is without justification, excuse, or palliation and upon him we invoke thiLdeliberate. judgment of the people of this State. 9.
