DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM I. That the federal government is limited in power to the grants enntained it. the Federal Constitution ; that the exercise of doubtful ronstitutional powers Is dangerous to the sta bility of the government and the safety of the people, and the democratic party will never conaent that the State of Pennsylvania shall surrender her great right of local self-govern ment 2. That the attempted ratification of the pro roped fifteenth amendment to the Federal Constitution by the radical members of the last legislature, and their refusal to submit the MM. to a vote of the people, was a deliberate breach of their °Metal duty and an outrage upon every cltlaen of the State, and the resolution rotating such ratifleation should be promptly repealed and the amendment submitted to the people at the polls for acceptance or rejection. 1. That the democratic party of Pennsylva nigh Is opposed to conferring upon the negro the right to vote, and we doemphatically deny that there Is any right or power In Congress or else where to impose negro suffrage upon the peo ple of this State in opposition to their will. 4 That reform in the administration of the federal and State governmental. and In the management of their financial affairs Is imper peratively demanded. 6. That the movement now being made for the amelioration of the condition of the labor ing man has our most cordial eo-operation. 6. That the legislation of the late republican Congresi "outelde of the Constitution," the disregard of the majority therein of the will of the people and sancity of the ballot box, in the exclusion from their seats in Congress of rep resentatives clearly elected, the establishment of military governments In States in the Union and the overthrow of all civil governments therein, are acts of tyranny and usurpation that tend directly to the destruction of all re publican government and the creation of the worst Items of despotism. 7 That our soldiers and sailors, who carried the Sag of our country to victory must be grate fully remembered. and all th# guarantees [tun In their favor must be faithfully carried into execution, 11. Equal rights and protection for naturalised and native-born riticen• at home and abroad ; the assertion of American nationality which shall command the respect of foreign powers and furnish sill example and encouragement to people struggling for national integrity, eon stitational liberty and indlvidunl rights. 9 That the present internal revenue and taxing system of the general government A grossly unjust, and means ought at core to be adopted to cause a modification thereof DEMOCRATIC COUNTY MEETING. On Tuewlay evening of next week, a mane meeting of the Demoerhey of Ceti tre county, and all those opposed to the late Ntotto LAW of the Legislature and in favor of REPEA L and Hamar, will be heltin the Court House, in Belle ?ante.

WAL- LICE, late Chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee, will also be present. Let there he n full turn out, and let ue have a routiing time. Re member Ter.suAr N mar of court week, the 24th instant Organize I We earnestly urge our Loemoeratic friertim not to delay their organization. The campaign is not going to he a long one, and every hour and minute is im portant. But a few weeks remain un til.the election, and we must lie ready to go to the polls kith our whole force. Therefore, we say, OIGANIZE! Hold your meetings and organize township and school districts thoroughly. Let tTiere be no work done that in not ne cessary, nor any neglected that is im portant. Be wide awake, and take dither ease nor rest until all your arrange-ments are completed. The enemy are working hard. They are making their brags about over coming the Democratic majority last tall, and will scruple not to use ever:* means in their power to accomplish that purpose. Tkin't let any Democrat feel too secure. Over-confidence it di great an evi) as despondency, and both should be avoided like a pestilense.— Democriisanura - Woil as tliough they felt that only tiry whn l yeork can win, and not as if the triumph of the De mooraey, was a "dead sure" thing. Work and win—slam and loose. DR GAMER —lf the white men of Centre coun ty want a man in the Prothonotary's office, who believes and says they are no bettei than negroes, all they need do is towobs foiflassat, Bevus. Le lees than three week. after he would fake charge of that office, darkeys would loaf and liege about it, as thick as they do now about the corner of Cherry alley and Allegany street. Th. Two; And now we have JAMES P. Coltman asking to be sent to the Legislature. Such a request, from a man of his pO. laical. character, is the height of impu: dence i,n Centre county. Let the peo. ple send him there, and they will tind themselves betrayed four weeks after he has taken his seat. For, be it re membered.,l Mr. COBURN is heart. a.. soul with the extreme portion of the Radical party, and is strongly devoted to negro suffrage. The object of the people this fall is to send men to Har risburg who will repeal the odious, nig ger law of last winter, but Mr. Coat RN was nominated on a platform the ex act opposite of that destre. Mr. Co. Brea will vote to sustain the Racal legislation of the last session, and would do more to secure the suffrage to the "colored cuss from Africa" than he would to secure it to the white foreign er from Ireland or Germany. Ah, no, Mr. Comma, you can't go. The peo ple don't want you there this .winter, nor any wi.iter, unless you change your course, and become a decent, res pectable white citizen. - When they de sire to till our legislative halls with black men, they will send for yot:, or 'some other person of the same calibre_ and opinions. Send a man to the Leg islature who wants to see and will help to make Pennsylvania negroca the equals, socially and politically. of our white citizens!

If you want negroes to be your equals, and walk arm in arm with you to the polls, vote for Clint RN. But if you want to Preserve the purity of the ballot, and confine it exclusive ly to white men, vote for If r I ER. —A few weeks ago there was an election in Virginia, which resulted in the triumph : of the Democrats and Conservatives. WAt.eea was chosen Governor by a handsome majority, and sufficient members were elected to the Legislature to insure the choice of two conservative United Staten Senators. It now appears that Gen. CANDI, the military commander of that department has arranged with the President to ap ply the OW oath to all the members elect. In this way it is expected to get all the members who served in the con. federate army thrown out, and thus secure to the Radicale the electiOn of the United Suttee Senators. "This" say :the Philadelphia Bulletin, a Rad ical paper, "is justly regarded as an important action, affecting the question of the election of two United Stales SenatOrs. It the rebels who cannot take the test oath are thrown out, the Radical wing of the Republican party will be enabled to elect the Senators." Here is an acknowledgment, by one of hie own organs, that President tit &sir desires to defeat the expressed willof the lawful.votere of Virginia. It is a most infamous and unrithteotts trans action, and should bring upon the, heads of GRANT and CANBY Arid the whole Radical tarty the execrations and contempt of the country. —Our.Radical friends, having no hope , for the success ofiheir county ticket, as a whole, are alieady trying to drive short, bargains. They have inaugurate.' the trade Gitainens, and of fer to do so and so, if Democrats will only - do so and so. Don't trade, Dem ocrats. Stick to the ticket, and be not deceived by your Radical opponents, who hope to elect one or two of their men by their old game of trade. The Democratic ticket is a good one. Nkre can elect every man on it, arid we therefore caution our friends not to lis ten to any suggestions Mike enemy. —Lewis Hess, the negro suffrage candidate for Commissioner, made himr self rich cheating his aighlioca - Potter township with worthless "oil stock." Wouldn't he cheat the people of the county, if he could make an) money by it, and could get the chance'?

The astounding corruption of our State Government, under Ocaav't ad ministrationt, is shown in the following statement from the Harrisburg Patriot.

At the last one, the President and his countitutional advisers aniumed themselves relating to each other how they used to, when boys, extract warts from their fingers, and some %cry in genius methods were described. It Might be well for GRAXT and his Cabi net to turn their attention to removing the warts from the bah• politic.

Bought ? in view of the fact that the Radicals express great concern feet a portion of Mr. PACKER'S wealth should be used to carry the election for the Democracy, the question arises "Who are to be bought Detnocrste, certainly, have no need to be purchased to support Mr. PAcitita, and, of course, if there is any buying to be done, it must be Radical votes that are for sale. On this subject, the following remarks from one of our exchanges are full of pith : "WA° is fo be Bought sofa Peieker's Money —The Radicals protests to believe that the coming gubernatorial election will be carried by money that voters are to be bought up by Packer. *he are In the market 1 It certainly le not the Democrats, for they will all Vote "the ticket, the whole ti et, and nothing but the ticket:" anti that without being bribed to de so. Are the Radical voters up for sal*? We know that many of the leaders sell them selves as often as a purchieer can he found. Orant was bought up by Stewart. and Boris, and Hoar, and other rich men. Geary was purchased time and again by the lobby and the legislative ring. Thad. Stevens died with. two hundred thousand dollars of Pacific Rail* road hoods In his possession; and to this day hie Executors have declined to file and,.ftwear to an Inventory of his property. -- The Radical Congress has been repeatedly bought up by whisky rings, railroad rings, New England tariff rings, Internal improvement rings, and multitudinoun other ringe. Simon Cameron purchased a seat in the United States Senate tae years ago; and last year the Pennsylva nia Railroad bought the place vacated by Sucks:l'lw for its pet solicitor John Scott. Radical members of our legislature could be bought during the last session as low as Ave dollars a piece. We know the leaders of the Republican party sell themselves often, and that they sell themselves very cheap in Peon sylvania ; but are the masses of the party in thin state as venal and as low priced 1 The tone of the radical press would lead us to be lieve that they can be bought In droves for a trilling sum per head. Perhaps it would be well for the Chairman of the Democratic Slate Central Committee to examine Into this mat ter A few tholutand dollars might bring us many thousand votes, anti that would simplify matters amaziegly, and insure a majority for Packer and Pershing of just a many thousand as may he deemed desirable. All this blow which Radical newspapers are making about Packer's money either means that the masses of their party are as venal as its leaders, or it means nothing." 512,3,10,4140 ll 1,367,487 ,Ml 2 —The late glorious results achiev ed by the Demodtacy in Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Montana, &c., are but the prelude to the final grand triumph of the Democratic party. 1n October, Pennsylvania will once more wheel into the Democratic line r and the "Keystone of the Arch," as of yore, become the wheel-horse of our grand old party.

Interview at Omaha between •n Indian and a Quaker Agent The following dialogue shows about how peace is preserved by our Quaker agents among the Indians. It will be recollecLid that the appointment of Quakers as Irdtan agents was one of Gissfa brilliant ideas. See how the thing works.

Last year the Democracy charged the Radical State Administration with paying a lot of fellows large salaries, as pesters and folders, who never did any work. :As usual, the charge was denied, butArtrfh, like murder, will out, !old now we have the confirmation of that charge, strong as proofs of 'Holy Writ.
