The Cincinnati Platform.
The Cincinnati Platform is the great idol
of the Democracy just now. The Harrisburg
Tilgraph says, when Mr. Buchanan and the
Slave power attempted to fasten upon the
people of Kansas a constitution which they
despised and which they have since rejected
by an almost unanimous vote, they attempted
to defend themselves behind the broad shield
of ihe Cincinnati Platform. When Mr. Dou-
! glas and his followers placed themselves in
open rebellion against the schemes of the
President and his advisers, they justified their
positions by appealing to the Cincinnati
Platform. When Mr. Boyce and his Tariff
Committee in ihe House of Representatives
made his positive and forcible report in favor
of destroying the Custom Houses, abolishing
all duties, and resorting to direct taxation to
carry on the operations of ihe Government, he
appealed directly to the Cincinnati Platform
to sustain that position; and we suppose
when any Democratic office-hunter or orator
may fiud it to his interest to do so, he will
appeal to th: same document to prove himself
and party in favor of a Protective Tar ill! The
following is the resolution in the Cincinnati
Platform upon the subject of the Tariff:
Reunited, That the questions connected with
the foreign policy of our country are inferior
to no domestic institution whatever r the time
has come for the people of the United Slates to
declare themselves in fator nf free seas, and a
PROGRESSIVE FREE TRADE tliroughout
the world, and by solemn manifestations to
place their moral influence by the side of their
successlul example.

and that for "Proposition Rejeeted'therewere

admission into the Union WITH SAID
Lecompton Slave Coxstitutio.v
under the conditions set forth in said
proposition." They did not say they
do not desire admission ; but they did
say, as they have twice before said
by honest votes, that thoy do desire
admission, as a FREE STATE, under
cither the Topeka or Leavenworth
Constitution.
The Kansas papers Btate that
their whole vote was not polled, some
of the election districts not being
fully organized there being a great
rain and high waters, which made
the traveling excessively bad yet
there was an intense desire to rebuke
and for ever "settle" the Slave Power
Tyranny ; and some, in the effort to
pass swollen streams to exercise tho
precious right of suffrage, lost their
lives !
Thus, again, (as at every honest
election) have the harrasscd and op
pressed people of Kansas demonstra
ted that they held Liberty to be their
greatest earthly boon. Will the Pro
Slavery Democracy Pharaoh-like
again deny their prayer for Freedom?
will they restore their rights to out
raged Kansas? or will they again
use their power to keep her people in
chains? That question, we think,
will be determined by the results oi i
the elections in the Northern States.
If the friends of the Administration
be sustained, Slavery will dare to en
force her insolent claims even to the
extreme of Dissolution of the Union.
If the friends of Free American La
bor and of No-Slavery Extension, be
triumphant.LiBERTT will also triumph,
and tho Demon of Oppression be
checked in its ravages.

j How Is Kansas to be Disposed of?
DitlMlong In tbe Soutb.
THE PRESIDEXTS VIEWS.
If Kansas had adopted the English Swin
dle, she would have been admitted as a Stale,
her vote in favor of that rascality being the
evidence, in the eye of the President, of her
anxiety to come into the Union ; but her re
jection uf that swindle is to be interpreted, he
says, as an evidence of her anxiety to stsi
out of the Union. Thus speaks the Wash
ington Union, the Pkssiiiixt's u :
"After all the contests which have wasted
the energies of her people, and scattered fire
branJs throughout the Union, we novo hace her
tol'mn die'uion I hut the prrfen a Territorial to
a Slute Government. Judging from the argu
ments must successfully used in ihe canvass
which has just terminated, that decision was
made upon Ihe deliberate conviction that Ihe
people of Kansas were eilner unable or un
willing to undertake the support uf a State
government. Of this fact none were socom
petent to decide as the people of Kansas.
Their decision is now made, and let it
CAHRIKD OUT."
Now, to our mind, it would seem more ra
tional to conclude that the people of Kansas
rejected the English proposition because it
was one of the grossest rascalities of the day,
and not because they wish to stay out of Ihe
Union. They are anxious to come in as a
State, but they are not willing to pay the price
of dishonor to get in. The President lays
down a bribe to coax them to come in ; they
say, we can not lake the bribe; therrfore,says
the President, they do not want to come in !
This is Presidential logic.
The Richmond Enquirer, (Douglasite,) one
of Ihe few Southern papers that can see the
length of its nose before its face, is not slow
to perceive the drift of this logic. It says :
Whether it is the part of wisdom to per
petuate agitation, and to make the refusal to
admit Itttnaaio ! r - 4 l iMa
the division of parties on sectional grounds,
may well address itself to the reflection of the
blaveholding States. Such refusal would De
come the cry of Northern fanaticism, and un
der us potent influence the enure North would
rally, we fear, to an overwhelming victory. In
our opinion, it would be highly improper to
adopt a ratio of population for a Mare stale, dif
frreht from that appointtd for a Free State.
Equal and exact justice to 6nf A Slate and Free
Stales is the only ground upon which Southern
States ctm maintain their claim to equ-il rights
in the Federal Union. A policy the same tor
both Slave and Tree States, should be the dc
mand of the South. Upon such a policy they
can maintain their just demands at ihe hands
of the North, and upon such a platform only
can lhe Southern States hope to meet their
allies at the North."
True. If the present population of Kansas I Mr K,)iin?er returned his sincere thanks
is sufficient to entitle her lo admission as a . fof he honor coarerrtli opon him.and pledg
SLAVE STATE, (which would have been ed hime(t lf eIecIed,0 5(.rvehis constuuents

beeu accepted.) il is euough to entitle her to
admission as a FREE STATE ; and if that
admission is refused by the administration,
ihe refusal will be mndc Ihe rallying cry of
the opposition in I860. The people of Kan
sas have been trying, for three years, to gel
into the Union : and the attempts to coustrue
their rejection of the English bribe as an in
dication of their tiesire to remain out, is the
paltriest trick ever essayed in the juggle of
politics. The people of the North can not be
deceived by it. They demand equal rights in
the Union, and will navt what they demand
As a specimen of Southern reasoning on this
topic, we subjoin an extract from the Mobile
(Ala.) R'gisten
It will be remembered, that, by the terms
case ihe people of Kansas a.cept the propo-
s n submitted to them by ihe act, and thus
incidentally ratify the l.ecompton ConsUlu-

THIS CONSTITUTED
II E COMPROMISE. If Kansas was not lo
come in under the l.ecompton Constitution
as a Slave State, the South was to be rolli
penatrd by kerplnsr her out an a
Free .stale lor an Indefinite nuui
ber or yearn."
This is the point exactly, and to it the South
will stand, and coerce the Administration
which, in the elegant language of Bigler, is
"a little weak in the knees and winces under
the Southern thunder" to stand or fall.
The Mobile paper gives ns the plain Eng
lish of the English bill, spoken out in honest
and undisguised language. And who donhts
but this was the ''true intent and meaning" of
the bill? It was not a COMPROMISE, but
rather a COMPENSATION act.' All attempts
to make aslave State of Kansas having failed,
and the last hope of doing so almost gone, the
South must be "compensated" for Ihe failure
"by keeping her out, as a free Slate, for an
indefinite number of years !" That is good,
and it will do us all good to know iu
Let us wail and see how the scheme works.
But. in the meantime, let us watch closely the
Congressional districts, and secure, this year,
the return rf men to Congress who will make
tbe administration "wince under NORTHERN
thunder." CenOe (Pa.) Democrat.

cienl, and reliable in his devotion to the cause
of Protection and Free Labor.
Resolved, That we hereby re-aflirm the dec-
laraiions announced by our respective County
Conventions in favor uf the ereai American
system, by which the labor and products of
our own country are elevated anu protected
against foreign competition.
Resulted, That we condemn the extravagant
expenditures of the present National A.lminis-
traiion, and are utterly opposed to ihe reckless
manner in which tbe public finances are man-
aged forpartlZan purposes.
Rimlred. That the despotic course pursued
oring to crush out, by the force of Executive
power, Ihe Iree Stale men and Iree institutions
in Kansas, and their discrimination against
the admission of free States, are utterly sub
versive of popular rights, and at variance with
the pledges made to the people.
Resulted, That we congratulate our political
friends on lhe encouraging aspect of the can
vass in this District, and counsel union and
harmony as being the sure precursors to a
glorious victory.
A committee, consisting of Messrs. Mum ma,

This resolution was violently onoosed bv
Judge Kennedy and others. Alter an exciting
discussion, a vote was taken on the resolution,
and il was LOST by a vote of SI to 19! So
the Administration of Gov.Packer stands upon
the record as openly repudiated by the Demo
cracy of Franklin county. a'F'and the only i
crime of Gov. Packer is that he insisted upon
the right of the People of Kansas lo frame iheir
own Constitution.
