OUR NATIONAL FLAG.
EIZEIEM
Fling out the nation's stripes and stars,
The glorious standard of the free,
The banner borne in freedom's wars,
The hallowed gem of liberty ;
On mountain top, in valley deep,
Wherever dwells the free and brave,
O'er graves where freedom's martyrs sleep,
Columbia's flag must freely wave.
Raise high the bright auspicious flag,
From every height and lowly glen,
In forest, dell, or jutting crag,
Afar among the hearth of men.
The sparkling banner widely flung,
Shall wave o'er land and sea;
And freedom's anthem sweetly sung,
Shall swell our country's jubilee
-Oh ! let the world that flag behold
The emblem of the brave and free,
The brightest crown of streaming gold,
That decks the Goddess Liberty.
Spreads out its bolds till heaven's dome
Reverberates the holy sound;
That all oppressed have found a home
On freedom's consecrated ground.
Fling out our country's banner wide,
Our emblematic starry gem,
OUR UNION NEVER SHALL DIVIDE,
While floats that silken diadem.
Year after year the brilliant stars.
Shall indicate the strength of all ;
Let all beware of oivil wars,
That curse of monarchs—freedom's fall.
OREGON, Pa., October, 1856.
THE GUNNER'S SHOT
A THRILLING STORY OF FACT
Our noble ship lay at anchor in the bay
of Tangier, a fortified town in the extreme
northwest of Africa. The day had been
mild; with a gentle breeze sweeping to the
northward and westward, but, towards the
close of the afternoon the sea breezes died
away, and one of those sultry, oven-like,
atmospheric breathings came from the
great sun-burnt Sahara. Half an hour
before sundown, the captain gave the or
der to the boatswain to call the hands to
go in swimming, and in less than five
minutes the forms of our tars were seen
leaping from the gangways, the ports, the
rettiugs, bowsprit, and some of the more
venturesome took their leap from the arms
of the lower yard. One of the studding
sails had been lowered into the water, with
its corners suspended from the main yard
arm and the swinging boom, and into this
the swimmers made their way.
Among those, who seemed to be enjoy
ing the sport most heartily, were two of
the boys, Tim Wallace and Fred Fair
banks, the latter of whom was the son of
our old gunner,oand in a laughing mood,
they started out from the scudding sail on
a race. There was a loud ringing shout
of joy on their lips as they put off, and
they, started through the water like fshes.
The surface of the sea was as smooth as
glass, though its bosom rose in long and
heavy swells that set in from the Atlantic.
The vessel was moored with a long sweep
from both cables, and the buoy on the
starboard anchor was far away on the star
board quarter, where it rose and fell with
the swells like a drunken man.
Towards the buoy the lads made their
way, Fred Fairbanks taking the lead, but
wlen they were within twenty or thirty
fathoms of the buoy, Tim shot ahead and
promised to win the race. The old gunner
watched the progress of his son with a vast
deal of pride, and when he saw him drop
behind he leaped upon the poop, and was
ou the point of urging him on by a shout,
when a cry reached him that made him
start as if he had been struck by a cannon
ball.
"A shark a shark !" came from the
captain ofthe forecastle, and at the sound
of - fhe terrible words the men who were in
the water leaped and plunged towards "the
ship.
Right abeam, at the distance of three
or four cables' length, a shark was seen
in the water, where the back of the mon
ster was visible. His course was for the
boys. For a moment the gunner stood
like one bereft of sense, but on the next,
he shouted at the top of his voice for the
boys to turn, but the little fellows heard
him not. Stoutly the two swimmers strove
for the goal, all unconscious of the fearful
death-spirit that hovered so near them.—
Their merry laugh still rang out over the
waters, and at length they both touched
the buoy together.
Oh! what drops of agony Narted from
tffwbrow of our old gunner. a boat had
put off, but Fairbanks knew it could not
reach them in season, and every moment he
expected to see the monster sink from
sight, and then he knew that all hope would
be gone.
At that moment a cry reached the ship
that went through every heart like a stream
of fire—the boys had discovered their en
emy ! The cry started old Fairbanks to
his senses, and quicker than thought he
sprang to the quarter deck. The guns
were all loaded and shotted fore and aft,
and none knew their temper better than
he. With a steady band, made strong by
a sudden hope, the old gunner seized a
priming wire and picked the cartridge of
one of the quarter guns—then he took from
his pocket a percussion wafer, and set it in
its place, and set back the hammer of the
patent lock. With a steady, giant strength
the old man swayed the breach of his
heavy gun to its bearing, and then, seizing
the string lock, he stood back and watched
for the next swell that would bring the
shark in range. He had aimed the piece
some distance of his mark, but yet a sin
gle moment would settle his hopes and
fears.
Every breath was hushed, and every ,
heart in that old ship beat painfully. The
boat was yet, some distance from the boys,
Whilst the horrible sea-monster was fear
fully near. Suddenly, the air was awoke
by the roar of a heavy gun, and as the old
man knew his shot was gone, he sank back
on the combing of the hatch, and covered ge ,
his face with his hands, as if afraid to sec
the result of his efforts, for if he had failed
he knew that the boy was lost.
For a moment after the report of the
gun had died away upon the air, there was '
a dead silence, but as the smoke arose from
the surface of the water, there was at first
a low murmur breaking from the lips of
the men; that murmur grew louder and'
stronger until it swelled to a joyous deaf- ,
ening shout. The old gunner sprang to
his feet and gazed out upon the water, and
the first thing that met his view was the
huge carcass of the shark, floating with his
belly up, a mangled mass.
In a few moments the boat reached the
daringswimmera, and half dead with fright,
wit IR ui rnalpirm - 94; EUVAISIZIW-
they were brought on board: The old in
clasped his boy in his arms, and then,
overcome by the powerful excitement, he
leaned upon the gun for support. I have
seen men in all phases of excitement and
suspense, but never have I seen three hun
dred human beings more overcome by
thrilling emotions, than on that eventful
moment, when they first knew the effect of
our gunner's shot.--,-Journai Eng
lish Naval Officer.
NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PLAT-
FORM
Which wa., adopted by the Cincinnati
National Democratic Convention ; and
which will be adopted by an overwhelm
ing majority of the American people, in
November next.
REsor.vED, that the American Democ
racy place their trust in the intelligence,
the patriotism, and the discriminating jus
tice of the American people.
REsoLvEn, That we regard this as ti
distinctive feature of our political creed,
which we are proud to maintain before the
world, as the great moral element in a
form of government springing from and
upheld by the popular will; and we con
trast it with the creed and practice of Fed
eralism, under whatever name or form,
which seeks to palsy the will of the con
stituent, and which conceives no imposture
too monstrous for the popular credulity.
RESOLVED, THEREFORE, That, enter
taining these views, the Democratic party
of this Union, through their delegates as
sembled in a general convention, coming
together in a spirit of concord, of devotion
to the doctrines and faith of a free repre
sentative government, and appealing to
their fellow-citizens for the rectitude of
their intentions, renew and reassert before
the American people the declaration of
principles avowed by them when on former
occasions, in general convention, they have
presented their candidates for popular suff
rages.
1. That 'the Federal Government is one
of limited power, derived solely, from the
Constitution ; and the grants of power
made therein ought to be strictly construed
by all the departments and agents of the
Government, and that it is inexpedient
and dangerous to exercise doubtful consti
tutional powers.
That the Constitution does not confer
upon the General Government the power
to commence and carry on a general sys
tem of internal improfements.
8. That the Constitution does not con
fer authority upon the Federal Govern
ment, directly or indirectly, to assume the
debts of the several States, contracted for
local and internal improvements, or other
State purposes, nor would such assumption
be 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 the interests of one
portion to the injury of another portion of
our common country ; that every citizen
and every section of the country has a
right to demand and insist upon an equali
ty of rights and privileges, and to complete
and ample protection of persons and prop
erty from domestic violence or foreign
aggression.
5. That it is the duty of every branch
of the Government to enforce and practice
the most rigid economy in conducting our
public affairs, and that no more revenue
ought to be raised than is required to de
fray the necessary expenses of the Gov
ernment, and for the gradual, but certain
extinction of the public debt. •
6. That the proceeds of the public lands
ought to be sacredly applied to the nation
al object specified in the Constitution, and
that we are opposed to any law for the dis
tribution of such proceeds among the
Stets, as alike inexpedient in policy and
repugnant to the Constitution.
7. That Congress has no power to char
ter a national bank; and that we believe
such an institution one of deadly hostility
to the best interests of, the country, dan
gerous to our republican institutions and
the liberties of the people, and calculated
to place the business of the country with
in the control of a concentrated money
power, and above the laws and the will of
the people ; and that the results of Demo
cratic Legislation in this and all other
financial measures upon which issues have
been made between the two political parties
of the country, have demonstrated to can
did and practical men of all patties, their
soundness, safety and utility in all business
pursuits.
8. That the separation of the moneys of
the Government from banking institutions
is indispensable for the safety of the funds
of the Government and the rights of the
people.
9. That we are opposed to taking from
the President the qualified veto power, by
which he is enabled, under restrictions
and responsibilities amply Sufficient to pro
tect the public interests, to suspend the
passage of a bill whose merits cannot se
cure the approval of two-thirds of the Sen
ate and House of Representatives, until
the judgment of the people can be obtained
thereon, and which has saved the Ameri
can people from the corrupt and tyrannical
dominion of the Bank of the United States,
and from a corrupting system of general
internal improvements.
10. That the liberal principles embodied
by Jefferson in the Declaration of Inde
pendence, and sanctioned in the Constitu
tion, which makes ours the land of liberty,
and the asylum of the oppressed of every
nation; have ever been cardinal principles
in the Deniocratielaithorn&everrattempt
to abridge the privilege of becoming citi
zens and the ownet of soil among us, ought
to be resisted with the same spirit which
swept the alien and sedition laws from our
statute books.
And, WHEREAS, Since the foregoing
declaration was uniformly adopted, by our
predecessors in National Conventions, an
adverse political and religious test has been
secretly organized by a party claiming to
be exclusively American, it is proper that
the American Democracy should clearly
define its relation thereto, and declare its
determined opposition to all secret political
societies, by whatever name they may be
called.
RESOLVED, That the foundation of this
Union of States having been laid in, and
its prosperity, expansion, and pre-eminent
example in free government, built upon en
tireffeedomin matters of religions concern
ment, and no respect of person in regard
to rank or place -of birth; no party can
justly be •deemed national, constitutional,
or in accordance with Amerioan.prinoiples,
"THAT COUNTRY IS THE •MOST PROSPEROUS WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD."
LANCASTER CTTY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 4, 1856.
which bases its exclusive organization upon
religiouropirrion and accidental birth-place.
And henoera political crusade, in thu nine
teenth century, and in the United States of
America, against Catholics and foreign
born is neither justified by the past history
or the future prospects of the country, nor
in unison with the spirit of toleration and
enlarged freedom, which peculiarly dis
tinguishes the American system of popular
governMent
RESOLVED, That if er reiterate with re
newed energy of purpose, - the well-con
sidered declaration of former Conventions
upon the sectional issue of dome . Slic slave
ry, and concerning the reserved rights of
the States.
1. That Congress. has no power under
the Constitution - to hiterfere "with or con
trol the domestic institutions of the several
States, and that such States are the sole
and proper judges of everything appertain
ing to their own affairs, not prohibited by
the Constitution ; that all efforts of the
abolitionists or others, made to induce
Congress to interfere with questions of
slavery, or to take incipient stepts in rela
tion thereto, are calculated to lead to the
most alarming and dangerous consequences;
and that all such efforts have an inevitable
tendency to diminish the happiness of the
people, and endanger the stability and per
manency of the Union, and ought not to
bo countenanced by any friend of our po
litical institutions.
2. That the foregoing proposition 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 national platform,
will abide by, and adhere to, a faithful
execution of the acts known as the Com
promise Measures, settled by the Congress
of 1850: , c the act for reclaiming fugitives
from service or labor," included; which
act being designed to carry out an express
provision of the Constitution, cannot, with
fidelity thereto, be repealed, or so changed
as to destroy or impair its efficiency.
3. That the Democratic party will resist
all attempts at renewing, in Congress or
out of it, the agitation of the slavery ques
tion, under whatever shape or color the at
tempt may be made.
4. That the Democratic party will faith
fully abide by and uphold the principles
laid down in the Kentucky and Virginia
resolutions of 1798, and in the report of
Mr. Madison to the Virginia Legislature,
in 1799 ; that it adopts those principles as
constituting one of the main foundations of
its political creed, and is resolved to carry
them out in their obvious meaning and im
port.
And that we may more distinctly meet
the issue on which a sectional party, sub
sisting exclusively on slavery agitation,
now relies to test the fidelity of the people,
North and South, to the Constitution of
the Union :
1. RESOLVED, That claiming fellowship
with, and desiring the co-operation of all
who regard the preservation of the Union
under the Constitution as the paramount
issue—and repudiating all sectional parties
and platforms concerning domestic slavery,
which seek to embroil the States and incite
to treason and armed resistance to law in
the - Territories ; and, whose avowed pur
poses, if consummated, must end in civil
war and disunion—the American Demo
cracy recognize and adopt the principles
contained in the organic laws establishing
the Territories of Kansas and Nebraska,
as embodying the only sound and safe solu
tion of the 44 slavery question," upon which
the great national idea of the people of
this whole country can repose in its deter
mined conservatism of this Union— ,, Non
interference by Congress with Slavery in
State and Territory, or in the District of
Colimbia."
[The reading of this resolution was in
terrupted for some time by tremendous and
prolonged applause.]
2. That this was the basis of the Com
promises of 1850—confirmed by both
the Democratic and Whig parties in national
conventions—ratified by the people in the
election of 1852, and rightly applied to the
organization of Territories in 1854.
3. That by the uniform application of
this Democratic principle to the organiza
tion of Territories, and to the admission of
now States, with or without domestic sla
very, as they may elect—the equal rights
of all the States will be preserved intact
—the original compacts of the Constitu
tion maintained inviolate—and the perpe
tuity and expansion of this Union insured
to its utmost capacity of embracing, in
peace and harmony, every future American
State that may be constituted or annexed,
with a republican form of government.
RESOLVED, That we recognize the right
of the people of all the Territories, in
cluding Kansas and Nebraska, acting thro'
the legally and fairly expressed will of a
majority of actual residents, and whenever
the number of their inhabitants justifies it,
to form a Constitution, with or without
domestio slavery, and be admitted into the
Union upon terms of perfect equality with
the other States.
RESOLVED, FINALLY, That in view of
the condition of popular institutions in the
Old World, (and the dangerous tendencies
of sectional agitation, combined with, the
attempt to enforce civil and religious disa
bilities against the rights of acquiring and
enjoying citizenship in our own land,) a
high and sacred duty is devolved with in
creased-responsibility upon the Democratic
party of this country, as the party of the
Union, to uphold and maintain the rights.
of every State, and thereby the Union of
the States; and to sustain and advance
among us constitutional liberty, by con
tinuing to resist all monopolies and exclus
iVe legislation for the benefit of the few at
the expense of the many, and by a vigilant
and constant adherence to those principles
and compromises of the Constitution which
are broad enough and strong enough to
embrace and uphold the Union as it was,
the Union as it is, and the Union as it
shall be, in the full expansion of the ener
gies and capacities of this great and pro
gressive people.
FOREIGN POLICY.
1. RESOLVED, That there are questions
connected with the foreign policy of this
country; which are inferior to no domestic
questions whatever.. The time has come
for, the people of the United States to de
clare themselves in favor of free seas and
a progressive free trade throughout the
world, and, by solemn manifestations, to
place their moral influence at the side of
their successful example.
2. RESOLVED, That our geographical
and political position with reference to
other States of . ..this continent, no less than
the interest of our commerce and the de
velopment of our growing power, require
that we should hold as sacred the princi
ples involved in the Monroe doctrine ; their
bearing and import admit of no miscon
struction ; they should be applied with un
bending rigidity.
2. RESOLVED, That the great highway
which nature, as well as the assent of the
States most immediately interested in its
maintenance, has marked out for a free com
munication between the Atlantic and the
Pacific Oceans, constitutes one of the most
important achievements realized by the
spirit of modern times and the•unconquer
able energy of our people. That result
should be secured by a timely and efficient
exertion of the control which we have the
right to claim over it, and no power on
earth should be suffered to impede or clog
its progress by any interference with the
relations it may suit our policy to establish
between our government and the govern
ments of the States within whose domin
ions it lies. We can, under no circum
stances, surrender our preponderance in
the adjustment of all questions arising out
of it.
4. RESOLVED, That in view of so com
manding an interest the people of the U.
States cannot but sympathize with the ef
forts which are being made by the people
of Central America to regenerate that por
tion of the continent which covers the
passage across the Interoceanic Isthmus.
5. RESOLVED, That the Democratic par
ty will expect of the next Administration
that every proper effort will be made to
insure our ascendency in the Gulf of Mexi
co, and to maintain a permanent protection
to the great outlets thrbugh which are emp
tied into its waters the products raised out
of the soil, and the commodities created by
the industry of the people of our Western
valleys, and of the Union at large.
An Appeal for the Union--Letter from
Hon. Robert .1. Welker
Ex-Secretary Walker has recently written
a letter on the impending crisis in our politi
cal affairs, which has produced and is still
producing a powerful impression upon the
public mind. It is written with all the clear
ness, earnestness and force for which the
writer is distinguished, and abounds in passa
ges of heart-stirring eloquence of the purest
and most elevateecharaeter. The chaiacter
of this remarkable production may be inferred
from the following thrilling and patriotic ap
peal which closes the letter :
"Let those of the North who tell you there
is no danger shrink from the fearful resnonsi
hint , : they have assumed ere the evil day
shall conic upon us. They tell us there is no
danger—that they have heard this cry of dan
ger to the Union ; hut there is no peril. None
in 18:20. none in 1833, none in 1850, and the
warnings of Washington were a delusion.—
by,:Sen, did they call Henry Clay the great
pacificator, and announce that thrice he had
saved hi. , ununtry ? How he saved the Union
if it never was in danger? But it was im
perilled, and it was saved by measures adopt
ed by the votes of the North and the South.—
the Union between the North and
the South, so far ,t, this votes fir 'he sectional
eandid. i tes of the s.• called 'republican' party
is e.ateerned. r, aie , thiy•iio..lo/e , e7: for no man
anticipates .thary elert• ral v-re for those
candidates in any :state of the South ; but
this cunt!. be settled exclusively in

and the a-b,lies and interegts of the
a ; Wilidly
•k..a e, m coontlymen, foe it is too late,
how yoa adopt la:se perilous eouosels. Give
n v that puts the Union in the slight
e,t peal —Make to, such fearful experiment.
Ft totals .if rnion, of all parties, our ene
mies a v combined: they hove fused, and under
their united eff ads the pillars nt the Union
are rocking .o their base, and we may have
assemit'od in November next for the last time
under out country's flag, and as citizens of
cumin v. Union. The enemies of the Union
have on'ted, and why should we be separated ?
The flag of the North 'American' party, as
they call themselves, is trailing in the dust,
and is replaced by the black 'republican'
standard. Your leaders have surrendered the
American flag and taken in exchange the
African banner. They have capitulated at
discretion ; they have surrendered your can
didates and principles, and demand your
votes flat the candidates of the black 'republi
can' party. Friends of the Union, come and
unite with us to save the Union ! Come,
with art any surrender of principles on your
part or ours, to the rescue of our country. In
my inmost soul I believe that James Buchan
an is the only man on whom in sufficient
force, the friends of the Union can unite to
save the Country.
'•Come delnocrats, come whigs, come friends
~f t h e 1. .ion of every party—come to the res
cue of that Union which James Buchanan
loves so well, and to preserve which the pa
triot statesman of Pennsylvania has given a
long life of devoted service. Come, my brother,
give me your hand ; let us save the country
first, and then settle. at some future election,
the administrative measures about which we
now differ. Come in the name of our common
country, now in the agony of an approaching
convulsion . ! Come, in the name of the con
stitution and of the Union, now subjected to
imminent peril! Come in memory of the
commingled blood of the North and the South
poured out on the battle-fields of the revolu
tion ! Conte in the name of the liberties of
the world, which would be crushed by the
fall of the American Union Come with the
farewell warnings of Washington on your lips
and imprinted on your hearts—not in sectional
array of the North against the South, but in
the glorious panoply of our whole country,
from North to South, from East to West!--
Let the thirty-one columns wheel into line,
and with the same inspiring battle-cry, peal
in,
from rank to rank, re echoing from State
to State, Tux UNtox—ro THE' RESCUE! Let
us together march to the Jolls, as our fathers
did in the hour of peril, to the music and flag
of the Union."
