Convention, the subjoined repolmumr.
drawn up at a meeting of the Southern
delegates, were ordered to he presented
to the National Convention for its adop
tion before any nomination tor President
or Vice President should lie made. They
irere laid before the Convention on Fri
day, and referred to the Platform Com-*
mittee, of which Mr, Ashmun, of Magsa
chusctti, was rhairm&u. They were re
ported hark to the Convention, by tin*
Committee, with a recommendation that
they be adopted, Hon. Hu fug Choate,
pf Massachusetts, judge Anders >n, ol
laOtiitiana, Mr. Butts of Virginia, and
Others, addressed the Convention in sup
port of the repost of the Committee.
The Platform, as follows, was then
adopted, by a vote of ayes 277 nays 66:
The Whigs of the United States, in
Convention assembled; firmly adhering
to the great conservative principles by
which they are controlled and governed,
•ad now, aa ever, relying upon the intel
ligence of the American people, with no
abifliug. confidence in their rapacity for
•elf-government, and their continued de
votion to the constitution and the Union,
do proclaim the follow ing as the politico I
Mptimeats and determination, for the es
tablishment aad maintenance o f whit h
their natmoal ojganiutkni as a party >*
effected*.;
1. The Government of the United
States is of a limited, character, and it is
confined to the exercise oj powers ex
pressly granted by the Constitution, aud
such- as may be necessary and proper for
carrying the grained pow ers into full ex
ecution, and that all powers not thus grou
ted or necessarily implied are expressly
reserved to the Spates respectively and to
the people.
2. The State governments should be
held secure ia their reserved r'ghts, and
the General Government sustained in its
constitutional powers, and that the Union
should be revered and watched oter as
“the palladium of our liberties.”
3. That while struggling freedom, ev
ery where, enlists the warmest sympathy
of the Whig party, we still adhere to the
doctrines ol the Father of his Country,
•S announced in his Fart well Address, ol
keeping ourselves free fF<>aa-ll entangling
alliances with foreign- countries, and ol
never quitting our own to stand upo-n for
eign ground. That our mission as a Re
public is not to propagate our opinions,
•r impose on other countries our form ol
government, bv artifice or force, hut to
tcaceh by example, and show by our suc
cess, moderation and justice, the blessings
of svlf- govern meat- aud the ai.vaalag ol
free institutions.
4. That where tl.e people make and
control the Government, they should obey
its Constitution,laws and treaties,as they
would retain llieit selfrespert.and the res-1
peel which they claim and will enforce!
from foreign powers
5. Revenue, sufficient for the expenses
of an economical administration of Gov ;
•rnmenl, in time of peace, ought to lie]
derived from, a duty en imposts, and not ]
from direct taxes: and in laying such, tin - j
lies, sound policy requires a just discrimi-l
nation, whereby suitable encouragement j
may be afforded to American inctustuy, |
equally to all clasm and y> aJ.I parts of!
the country..
$. The CusMiitution vests in Congress’
the pAwer to open and repair harbors, and ;
remo-va obstructions from navigable riv-i
•rs, whenever such improvements, a re. ne
cessary for the common defence, and fori
the protection and facility of commerce j
with foreign, nations or among the Stale';)
said improvements being m every in.'tan-j
ce, national and general in their cliar-l
acter.
7. The Federal and St ale governments i
ara parts of one system, alike necessary for
the common prosperity, peace and serur.
ky, and ought to he regarded alike with a
cordial, habitual and immovable attach
menl. Respect for the authority of each,
and acquiescence in ihejo>t constitutional
measure aof each, are duties required by
the plainest consideration of national,, nl
State, end of individual welfare.
8. That the series ol arts of the thirty
first Congress —the act known as the fugi
tive slave law iorluded—are Received aud
acquiesced k> by she Whig; pasty of the
United States as a settlement La principle
and substance of the dangsanas and. enti
ling question*, which they embnace, and so
far as. they are-cunceaurid, will maintain
them and insist upon (heir strict enfiircv
ment, until, time aud experience shall dem
onstrate tlie necessity olTurther legislation
tin guard against the invasion of Ue laws
on tl.e one hand, and. the ahusj of their
powers on the other, na impairing their
efficiancy and we deprecate ajl further
agitaiioa of the question thus settled ms
dangerous to.our peace, and will discoun
tenance aid efforts to. continue nr renew
such agitation, whenever,. wherever nutl
however the Attempt may b made ; and
we will maintain this system ns essential
to the nationality of the Whig party, aud

Tht“ commanding importance which
