Soft be thy slumber, rude cures depart,
Visions in numhors cheer thy lone heart;
Dream on, while bright hour*
In fund hope* remain,
Blooming like moiling Imwers,
For thee, then Uaynk,
ChußUS.—Oontla slumbers o'er thee pii'lo,
Dream* of bounty round t he bide ;
While I linger by thy side,
Sweet Ellen Bjyne.
Dream not in anguish—dream not in f. nr,
Love sh ill not languish, fond one* ure near;
Sleeping or waking, in pleasure or pain,
Fund hearts will beat fur thee.
Sweet Ellen Bayne,
Scones that have vanished sm'le on thee now,
I’loaanres once banished play round thy brow,
Forma long departed greet then again,
Soothing thy dreaming heart,
Sweet Kjlen Bayne.
Bell Br:ut<lr.n
Neath a tree by the margin of the woodland.
Whose spreading leafy boughs sweep the ground
With a path loading thither o’er the prairie,
When silence had her night garb around.
There oft’ n I have wandered in the evening,
When the Mimmer winds uie fragrant on the lea,
Thera 1 snv the little beauty, Bell Brandon,
And we met ’iieatli the old arbor tree.
Belt Brandon wasn birdling of the mountain
Jn freedom slm sported on her wing ;
And they say the life-current ol’ ‘lie red man,
Ting’ and her veins from n far distant spring.
And she loved Iter humble dwelling on the
prairie,
And he guileless, happy heart clung to mo,
And I loved the little beauty. Bell Brandon,
And wo both loved the old arbor true.

Truce to thy fond misgivings,
Those fruitless tears give o’er,
No absence cun tl.vi.le us,
No porting pnrt us more !
Mountains and seas may rise between,
To mock our baffled will;
But heart in heart, ami soul in soul,
Wo bide together still.
And when stern death shall work his worst.
And all ourjoys ure done,

Tin’ dial with the sun ;
Though ono exist in heavenly bliss,
Ouu in this world of ill,

We’ll hide together (till.

Democratic Platform.
Adoptid at Cincinnati, June, 1850.
Resolved, That the American Democra
cy place their trust in the intelligence, the
patriotism and the discriminating justice of
the American people.
Unsolved, That we regard this as n dis
tinctive fenture of onr ereqd which we are
proud to maintain before tho world as a
great moral clement io a form of govern
ment springing from and upheld by the pop
ular will; anil werwntrast it with the creed
and praericeof Federali-m, tinder whatever
name or font), which seeks to palsy the vote
of the constituent, and which conceives no
imposture too inon-truiu for the popular
erudelity.
Resolved, therefore, That entertaining
these views, the democratic party of the
Union, through their delegates assembled
in general convention of the States, con
vening together in a spirit of concord, of
devotion to the dot trines end faith of a free
representative government, and appealing
to theif fellow citizen* fur the rectitude ol
their intentions, renew and reassert before
the American people the declarations of
principles avowed by them, when, on form
er occasions, in general convention, they
presented their candidates for the popular
suffrages,
1. That the federal government is one of
limited powers, derived solely from the
Constitution, and the grants of powers made
therein ought to ho strictly construed by all
the departments and agents of the govern
ment ! and that ilia inexpedient and danger
ous to exercise doubtful constitutional pow
ers.
2. r I hat the constitution docs not confer
upon the general (•overnmerM the power to
commence and carry on n general system
of internal improvement*.
•I. That the constitution does not confer
authority upon thefedetnl government, di
rectly or indirectly, to assume the debts of
the several .Stales, contracted for local in
ternal improvements, or other State pur
poses ; nor would such assumption he just
or expedient.
4. That justice and sound policy forbid
the federal government to foster one branch
of industry to the detriment of any other,
or to cherish tho interests of one portion to
tho injury of another portion of our com
mon country ; that every citizen and every
section of the country has a tight to demand
aud insist upon an equality of rights and
privileges, and a complete and ample pro
tection of persons and property from domes
tic violence and foreign aggression.
5. i hat it is the duty of every branch of
tho Government to enforce and practice
the most tight economy in conducting our
public a flairs, and that no more revenue
oUgln to he rai-ed than is required to defray
the necessary expenses of the Government,
and for the gradual hut certain extinction
of the public debt.
fi. That Congress has no power to char
tor a National Bank; that we In lieve such
an institution one ot deadly hostility to the
host interest of our country, dangerous to
our republican institutions, and the liber
ties of the people, and calculated io place
the business of the country within the con
trol of a concentrated money power, and n
hove the laws and will of the people, and
that the results of the Democratic leg
‘slation in this and other financial measures
upon which issues have been made between
the two political parties of the country,
have demonstrated to practical men of all
parties their soundness, safety aud utility in
all business pursuits.
7. I hat the separation of tho moneys of
the Government from all hanking institu
tions is indispensable for the safety of the
Government and the tights of the people.
8. That the lit) ral principles embodied
by Jefferson in the Declaration of Indepen
dence, and sanctioned in the Constitution,
w hich makes ours the land f liberty, and
tile asylum of the oppressed of evety na
tion, have ever been cardinal principles in
the Democratic faith ; and every attempt
to abridge the privilege of becoming citi
zens aud owners of soil among us ought to
lie i\ stated w ith the 9atne spirit w hich swept
the alien and sedition laws from our statute
book.
9 Thai Congress has no power under
the constitution to interfere with or control
the domestic institutions of the several
Slates, and that all such Stales are the sole
and proper judges of everything appertain
ing to their own all'lira not prohibited by
the constitution ; that all effoi is of the abo
litionists or others made to induce Congress
to interfere with questions of slavery, or to
taka incipient steps in relation thereto,
are calculated to lead to the most alarming
and dangerous consequences, and that such
offline have an inevitable tendency to dimi
nish the happiness of the people and endan
ger the stability and permanency of the
Union, and ought not to bo countenanced
hy any friend of our political institutions.
Resolved, That the foregoing proposi
tion covers and was intended to embrace
the whole subject of slavery agitation in
Congress, and therefore the Democratic
party of the Union, standing on this nation
al platform, will abide hy and adhere to a
faithful execu'ion of the acts known as the
compromise measures, settled hy Congress,
the act for reclaiming fugitives from service
or labor included; which act being design
ed to carry out ao express provision of the
constitution, cannot, with fidelity thereto,
tic repealed, or so changed as to destroy or
impair its efficiency.
Resolved, That the democratic patty
will icsist all attempts at renewing in Con
gress, or out of it, the agitation of the slave
ry question, under whatever shape cr color
the attempt may he made.
Resolved, That the proceeds of public
lands ought to bo sacredly applied to the
national objects specified in the constitution
and that we are opposed to any law for the
distribution of such proceeds anion* the
States, as alike inexpedient in policy and
repugnant to the constitution.
Resolved, That we are decidedly oppos.
ed to taking from the President the quail,
lied Veto power, by which he is enabled,
under restrictions au<i responsibilities ainpli
snficieut to guard the public interests, t
suspend the passage of a bill whose merits
cannot secure the approval of two-thirds
of the Senate ami lleuse of Representatives
until the judgment of the peoplo can he ob
tained thereon, aud which has saved tin
Atnerieau people from the corrupt aud ty
rannical dominion of the Bank of the Uni
ted States, and from a corrupting system of
general Internal Impiovoments.
Resolved, That the democratic party will
faithfully abide by and uphold the princi
ples laid tlown in the Kentucky and Virgi
nia resolutions of 1792 and 1793, and in the
report of Madison to the Virginia Legisla
ture in 1799—that it adopts those principles
as constituting one of the main foundations
ofits political creed, and is resolved to car
ry them out iu their obvious rneauiug and
import.
That in view of the condition of the, pop
ular insinuations in the Old World, a high
and sacred duty is involved with increased
responsibility upon the Democracy of this
country, as the party of the people, to up
hold and maintain the rights of every State,
and thereby the union of the States—and to
sustain anil advance among them constitu
tional liberty, by continuing to resist nil
monopolies and exclusive legislation for the
benefit of the few, at the expense of the
many, and by a vigilant and constant adhe
rence to those principles and compromises
of the Constitution—which tire broad enough
and strong enough to embrace and uphold
the Union as it is. and the Union as it
should be—in the full expansion of the en
ergies and capacity of this great and pro
gressive people.
And YVhereas, Since the foregoing de
claration was uniformly adopted by our
predecessor- in National Conventions An
adverse political religjohs test has been se~
cretly otgaiftZjßd by a party claiming .k) he
exclusively Americans, anil it is propercthut
the American Democracy should clearly
define its relations thereto; therefore,
Resolved, That the foundation of this
union of States having been laid in its pros
perity, expansion and pre-eminent exam
ples in free government, built upon entire
freedom in matters of religious concern, and
no respect of persons in regard to rank or
place of birth, no party can justly lie deem
ed national, constitutional, or in accordance
with American principles which bases its
exclusive organization upon religious opi
nions and accidental birth-place.
That we reiterate with renewed energy
of purpose tho well considered declarations
of former conventions upon sectional issue
of domestic slavery and concerning the re
served lights of the Slates; and that ive may
more distinctly meet the issue on w hich a
sectional partv exclusively on
on s'nvery agitaWHr, now relies to test the
lidelitr of the people, North and South, to
the Constitution and the Union—•
Resolved, That claiming fellowship with
and desiring the co-operation of all who rp
gard the preservation of the Union under
the constitution as the paramount issue, and
repudiating all sectional parties and plat
forms concerni g domestic slavery, which
seek to embroil the States and incite to
treason and armed resilience to law in the
Territories, anil whose avowed purposes, if
consummated must end in civil par and
disunion, the American democracy recog*
nize and adopt tho principles contained io
the organic law* establishing tlte f’erritor-es
of Kansas anil Nebraska, as embodying the
only sound and safe solution ol the slavery
question upon which the great national idea
of the people or this whole country can re
pose in its determined conservatism of the
Union ; non-interference hy Congress with

parties in national conventions, ratified hy

Resolved, That we recog ize the right
of the people of all the Territories, includ
ing Kansas and Nebraska, acting through
the fairly expressed will of the majority of
actual residents, and whenever the number
of their inhabitants justifies it, to form a
constitution, with or without slavery, and
he admitted into the Union upon terms of
perfect t quality with the other Slates.
the foreign tolicy of the government.
Resolved, finally. That hy the condition
of the popular institutions of the old world,
and the dangerous tendency of sectional
agitation, combined with the attempt to en
force civil and religious disabilities against
the riglu of acquit ing citizen-hip in our own
land, the high and sacred duty is devolved
with increased responsibilty upon the Dem
ocratic party of this country, as the party
of tho Union, to uphold and maintain the
right of every Stale, and thereby the Union
of the States; and sustain and advance a
moug us constitutional liberty hy continuing
to resist all monopolies and exclusive legis j
Ia lion for the benefit of the few. at the ex !
peuse of the many—anil by the vigilant
adherence lo Iheso principles ami the com.
promises of the constitution, which are
broad and strong enough to embrace and
uphold the Uniou as it was, and the Union
as it is—the Union as it shall he in the full j
expansion of the energies and capacities of
the great progressive people-
Fiist—Resolved, That the question con*
neeted with the foreign policy of the conn*
try is inferior to tin domestic question what
ever. Tho time has come for the people of
the United States to declare themselves in
favor of free seas aud progressive free trade
throughout tho world. And. hy solemn j
manifestations to place their moral influ
ence by the side of their successive exaui- j
hie.
Second—Resolved, That our geographi*
cal and political posiliou with reference to
the other States of the continent, no less
than the interest of our commerce and the
development of inirgrowiug power, requires
that we hold tothesacred principles involv.
ed in the Monroe doctrine. Their bearing
und import admit of no miscunsttuction. and
should he applied with uuhending rigidity.
Thirdly—Resolved, Thai thegreut high
way which nature as well as the asseut of
the States most immndiateiy interested in
its maintenance has marker) out for the
free communication between the Allan*
tic and the Pacific oceans, constitutes oue
of the most important achievraents to be
realized by the spirit of moderation, iu the
unconquerable energy of our people, and
;bat re*ul: should be secured by a timely!
and efficient exertion of tho control which’
we have a right to claim over it. And no
power on earth should he suffered to impede
or clog its progress by any interference with
relations that it may suit our policy to estab
lish with the government of the States
within whose dominion it lies; and we can.
under no circumstances, surrender our pre
ponderance in the adjustment of all ques
tions aiming out of it.
Fourthly—Resolved. That in view of so
commanding an interest the people of the
United States cannot but sympathize with
the efforts which are bring made by the
people of Central America to regenerate
that pottion of the Continent which covers i
the passage across the oceanic Isthmus. j
Fifihlv—Resolved, That the Democratic,
party will expect from the next Administra-i
Mon every proper effort to lie made to in- ■
sure our ascendancy in the Gulf of Mexico i
and maintain a permanent protection of the 1
great outlets ihtough which are emptied into
its waters the products raised on the soil,
and the commodities created by the indus
try of the people of our Western valleys and
the Union at large.
