THE PLATFORMS.
We publish below the resolutions adop
' ted by the respective. Conventions which
nominated Messrs. Breckinridge 'and
Douglas, and the resolutions (relating to
slavery) adopted by the Cincinnati Con- -
vention in 1858, which are re-affirmed.by
both the above ponventions. , If our rea
ders can discover any material difference
in these platforms - upon the question of-,
non-interVention, they have - sharper eyes
than we. At all events, the difference is
too slight to have caused a division in the'
party, and the running of two
Itmust be that the main cause of dislan siott
in the National Convention is traceable to
less important causes than a difference- of
principles—to intense sectional iifejudices,
and likes or dislikes of 'certain - candidates'.
If this be the case,. the - DemOcratie mass
es were not fairly 'represented -at Charles
ton and Baltimore. -The poptilqr heartof
the nation beats strong as ever for the Un,
ion, and those time-honored Democratic
,principles that have made it what it is.—
'But this. aside, 'we ask our Deinocratic
friends in this _county to carefully scan the
resolutions of - the.respective Conventions,
and see if there is any real cause for the
present state of things. The Democratic
State Central Committee, as will be seen
in another column,- have recommended
• that only one electoral ticketbe voted for,
which, if successful, (and it probably will,
Ile if' the proposition is fairly carried out,)
the vote of the State oul dbe given in
• the. Electoral ,College to the candidate
,(Breekinridge or Douglas) having the
• .highest_vote. - This is the best-mode leik
tons of again whipping the. rotten and
. :contemptible abolitionists, whoa are now
. more than ever clamorous for Lincoln and
dissolution of the Union. -The defeat of
thisSincoln conspiracy against th&Union
should be the paramount object with eve
ry' Democrat, and every reasonable sacri
fice should be'made to that end. - -
N R, - of„ - o - liciNsodopted be the Diqnocratir Ilia
tionat Convention at Cincjnilati in 1 858 :
Resolved, That we reiterate, with re
newed energy of purpose, the well consid
ered declarations of former Conventions
upon the sectional - issue of domestic slave-
Ty, and concerning 'the reserved rights_of
'the states ;
I.'That Congress has no - power, under
the Constitution, to interfere with or con
trol the domestic institutions'of the sever
'al States, 6rilithat such States - are the.sole
and proper judges of everything 'apper
taining to their own affairs not prohibited ;
by the Constitution; that all efforts of the
abolitionists or others, made' to interfere
with ;:le.stions of slavery, or to take incip
ient steps in relation thereto-, are calcula
ted to lead to the most alarming and dal)-
, gerous consequences ; and that all such
efforts have an inevitable tendency,to di
minish the happiness of the people and en::
danger the stability and- permanency of
the 'anion and ought not to be connten

2. That the foregoing- proposition coy

ty of the Union, standing, on this national
platform, will abid'e . by and adgere to a
'faithful execution of the acts known as the!
Compromise Measures, settled by the Con
. gress of 1850, the "Act forteclaitning'fit
' aitives from service or labor" inclnded l
• which act- being designed to carry out ant
express 'provision of the Constitution, can
not with fidelity thireto'be repealed, or so
changed as - -to destroy or impair its effi

3. That the Democratic patty will re:

or out of it, the agitation of the slavery
question, under whatever shape or color
the attempt may be made, •

' which was brought aim& while seirclling
for indications of oil, are as follow:
",A 'small bit of this: stone, -piece per
haps four inches square, was taken by 111 r.„
Wm. Cumberland, a Lwell-known chemist
of this city, a day or two- since, ior-the
iitirpose of endeavoring to extract Oil from
it., The experiment,' faras the 'end in

the - - progress of if ettlier discoveries were
made of startling • importance and• great
interest. .The-stone,had been br4,ken up
and placed-in a retort, — which was then!
subjected to the actibn- of 'the heat. A
vapor was seen to issue from the neck of ,
the retort,-and on a Match being 'Applied
it ignited and. burnetbrilliantly for half
an hour: It gave alight fully equal' to'
the, same volume of coal-gas, and emitted
no odor of The burned stone
was .thell analyzed, and found to [conlain

moved, the residue was excellent Idme!,
