Readied, That it is the duty of the Fed eral Government to protect, when necessary the rights of persons or property on the high seas, in the Territories, or wherever else its constitutional jurisdiction extends. 1 Resolved, That we, the Democracy of the Union in Convention assembled, hereby declare our affirmation of the resolutions unanimously adopted and declared as a plat form of principles by the Democratic Conven tion in Cineinatti, in the year 1856, believing that Democratic principles are unchangeable ip their nature, when applied to the same sub ject matters; and we reccommend. as the oaly farther resolutions, the following 2; Inasmuch as differences of opinion ex ist in the Democratic party as to the nature and extent of tho powers of a Territorial Legislature, and as to the powers and duties of Congress under the Constitution of the United States, over the institution of slavery within the Territories, Therefore, Resolved, That the Democratic party will abida bv the decision of the Supreme Court impossible to elect a Democratic President next fall. Unless a reconciliation is affected with our Southern brethcrn, it will, we fear. be worse than folly for the Convention when it reassembles at Baltimore to place in nomina tion a candidate for President. We believe that Stephen A. Douglas and his friends have it in their power io affect such a reconciliation. Our readers are aware that during the last three years wo have not been one of the admirers of Senator Doug las. - But if he had been fairly nominated at Charleston for the Presidency, we would have cheorfully tupported him. lie is certainly a Statesman of extraordinary abilities, and at one time possesed the confidence and esteem of the Democracy in everr section of the Union. But by his course during the last few years, he has forfeited the confidence of the Democracy of the Southern States It is et Stephen A. Douglas' withdraw from the contest, and allow a conservative statesman, acceptable to both wings of the party be nom inated for President at Baltimore. If he is a patriot he w ill do this If he is a dema gogue he will remain in the field. . It is quite natural that. Senator Douglas' friends should be reluctant to give Lim up. But they should remember that the sacrifice is necessary to preserve the integrity of the Democratic party,,nd in all prpbabillity pre vent the dissolution of the Union. - For our part we are no man worshipper, and arethere fore unwilling to disorganize the Democratic party in order to place any tnan in a position in whioh it can be said', of him as .

The School Directors of Cambria County, met in Convention at the Court House in this borough, on last Monday at 1 o'clock P. M. for the purpose of electing a County Superin tendent, and fixing the. amount of his salary. Maj. James Potts of Johnstown was appaint- ed President,. and William Murray, W. W. Harris and John Roberts Esq. .'-Secretaries . James M. Swank Esq. of Johnstown offered the following resolution. Resolved, That the annual salary of tho County Superintendent to be elected by this Convention, be and it is hereby declared to be eight hundred dollars Capt. B M'Der mitt of Summerhill tp., offered an amendment fixing the salary at one. thousand dollars. Another was offered fixing it at six hundred.

The Band is composed entirely of students, and certainly for "new beginners" they play remarkably well. They played several tunes while here in a manner that excited universal admiration. Brother Barnardine the present efficient President of the College, has done much towards im proving it during the last year, and it now justly enjoys the reputation of being one of the best educational institutions in the State May prosperity ever attend it.

Resolved, That the enactments of State Legislatures to defeat the faithful execution of Fugitive Slave Law are hostile in their character, subversive of the constitution, and rcvolutiouary in their effect. Immediately after the adoption of the Platform, the Delegates from Alabama, Miss issippi, South Carolina, Florida, Texas, Ar kansas and Delewaic withdrew, and the Del egates from Virginia and Georgia retired to consult. The Delegates from the Southern States contended that the Convention in re fusing to adopt the majority report, had re fused to reaffirm and endorse a cardinal prin ciple of the Democratic party the right of every American citizen to emigrate to any of the Territories, with his property, and hold it unmolested there until the territory in which he resided should be admitted into the Union as a State. The Democratic Par ty was a party of principles, and they were not principles which it ought either to be ashamed of or afraid to avow. The conven tion had no right to reject principles and adopt a platform which would suit Stephen A. Douglas. ' It was true he was unwilling to stand on the majority platform, but many distinguished statesmen were; statesman in every way his equal if not his superior. On Tuesday the Delegates from Georgia with drew. The Convention then proceeded to ballot for President.

He was well acquainted with Maj. Maguire, and knew hi to be well qualified for properly discharging the duties appertaining to the office of County Superintendent.

But it was nat nral that the Southern Democracy seeing him daily acting with their enemies, should Judge him by the company he kept, and looso all confidence in his Democracy and patriotism. Shortly after this he openly promulgated the the extraordinary doctrine, that Territorial Legislatures have the right to abolish slavery in the Territories, which tended to widen still more the breach between him and our South ern brethern. They began to feel that they could not safely entrust their dearest rights to bim as Chief Magistrate of the Republic, and determined to oppose his nomination at Charleston. In the meantime. Senator Douglas an nounced that he would be a candidate for the nomination for the Presidency before the Char leston Convention. At the same time he declared that he would not accept the nomi work. Maj. Maguire having been called upon, came forward and delivered a few appropriate remarks. After thanking the Convention for electing him County Superintendent, he said that he accepted the office with the fixed de termination to devote all his energies and abilities to the discharge of it? important and responsible duties. If he should not succeed in giving satisfaction to tho friends of Com mon Schools in this County, it would be be cause he had not the ability to do so. sley, Irad Kelley. John Delamater, and T. G.

The most amusing occurrence of the sea son among the many laughable incidents that have marked the inception and progres of the Investigating Committee of John Covodc, is, that in every step that Committee has ta ken for the purpose of fastening upon of corruption, that on the brain. Giddiness, headache, loss of rnem ory, dimness of sight, and various other com plaints are the result. Thus it will be seen that all the above painful and distressing maladies owe their origiu to the blood.

They root out all foulness and impurity, and drive out every uuhealthy obstruction- They should be taken every night in sufficient quantities to ope rate briskly, by commencing w ith two pills on going to bed, three the next night, four the next if the symptoms are not removed, commence again with two pills and go up again as before.
