ot tbt Suit of Texas reaffirm and con
oar in th* principles contained in the
Platfipcnkoif tbe National Democratic
Convention, hefd at Cincinnati, in Jonc
1956, ffs a true expression of their po-
litical faith aw} opinion, and herewith
re assert and sat forth the principles
therein contained, as embracing the
only doctrines which can preserve the
integrity" of the Union and the equal
rights of the States ; and that we will
continue to adh9re to and abide by the
principles and doctrines ot the Virgin-
ia and Kentucky Resolutions of 1798
and 1799, and Mr. Madison's Report
relative thereto, ia the same good faith
with which thej wero affirmed by the
Cincinnati Democratic Convention and
afterwards reaffirmed and published by
the Waco Convention in May, 1857,
as a part of its proceedings.
Resolved, That the Party also re-as-
sert and adhere to the pr:nciple assert-
ed jn the Waco platform, " That the
citizens of the Southern States have
the indefeasible right to carry their
Slaves into any Territory belonging to
the United States, and "there to enjoy
all the rights of ownership andiprop-
erty as freely and as fully as In the
State from which they emigrate \ and
'that any interference with, or obstruc-
tion to, the enjoyment and exorcise of
their rights as Southern citizens by the
government of the United States, or
by the inhabitants of any Territory,
would be a violation of the rights of
the Southern States, which they pos-
sess as sovereign States and coequal
members of the American Confedera-
cy."
Resolved, That the Democracy of Tex-
as recognize in the opinion of the Su-
preme Court of the United States in
the Dred Scott case, a true and just ex-
position of the constitutional powers
and duties of the Federal Government
in the Territories and the limitations
thereupon ; and declare that nothing
less than the uniform execution of those
powers stnd duties, and the continual
observation of the limitations thereup-
on, can do justice to all of the States
aud preserve their, equality.
Resolved, That we deny the possibili-
ty of the existence of tlie power in the
I*egislatmre of any Territory, whilst
the Constitution prevails, l>y unfriend-
ly legislation or otherwise, to defeat
the rights of property in slaves, or
practically refuse protection thereto,
but declare that it is entitled to ade-
quate protection * from the General
Government.
Resolved71mt no new State ought
to be admitted into the Uniou until it
lias been duly ascertained by lawful
census, that its territory contains the j
number of inhabitants requisite for J
one Representative upon the Federal!
basis. !
To Destroy Rats.—The Griffin Ga
Empire States says, that a lady in that
city, irhosc house became so infested
with these troublesome varmints, gives
the simple remedy of dissolving cop-
peras in water, (make it strong,) and
sprinkling in the most prominent pla-
ces will make them leave at a two-forty
rate and no mistake. She tried it suc-
cessfully, and has not* been troubled
with rats or mice since. It is simple,
and will not cost much to try it.
Hair op CmLT>ren.-^It is a great
mistake to plait the hair of childijgn
under 11 or 12 years of age. The pro-
cess of plaiting more or less strains
the hairs in their roots by pulling them
tight; tends to deprive them of their
requisite supply of nutriment, and
checks their growth. The hair of girls
should be cut very short, and allowed
to curl freely. When they are about
11 or 12 the hair should be twisted in-
to a coil, not too tight nor tied at the
end with a thin thread, but with a
.piece of ribbon.
TftE USE OF Dr. HOSTETTERTS
Stpmaeh Biiters, lor Dyspepsia, Flam
lence, Heaviness of the Stomach, or any
other like* affection, is second to none in
America or 'abroati. To be able to state
confidently that the "Bitters" are a certain
cure for dyspepsia and like diseases, is to
tfie proprietors a sourjee <?T tinniloyed
pl^nsure.- It removes all morbid matter
from the stomach, purifies the blood im-
parts renewed vitality to the nervous sys.
tern, giving it that tone and energy so in.
dispensable for the restoration of health
The numerous acknowledgements of its
superior or excellence anil beneficent re-
sults, have assured the propeietores that
it cannot but prove a great cure to the ad-
dicted, aud impart vitality to the thorough
system.

learn from Vera Cruz that Mr. McLanc
had-returned from the Isthmus, and at
" the capital of the constitutional gov-
ernment" when the 7'cnnes3ee sailed,
though we regret to add in not very
$*ood health. It was for change of air
as much as anything that lie went to
the Isthmus. The heat at Vera Cruzi
was extreme, and the present week the !
Minister'was to take another trip down j
the coast to the Alvarado. His suite
were well.
We learn in addition that the late
official advices had been received from
the frontier States, and though the
news of the recognition of the Juarez
Government bv Mr. McLane had not
reached them, all were straining every
nerre in support of the constitutional
cause! We also learn from the same
well informed and authoritative source
that there was great confusion in the
capital, growing out of the jealousy of
the various leaders, and the want of
money to carry on the war. A " sub-
civil war " among the reactionists was
expected, Mjramon being at the head
of one party, and Marques at the head
of the other. The bone of contention
is the church property.—JV*. O. Pic. ~
The Suicide Dodge.—A man, call-
ing himself Latnartine, /is wandering
through tho West and raising funds by
pretending to commit suicide. He
takes laudanum and sends for a doctor
tad clergyman. Jhev como to him and
fipd a letter in his roOm in the "most
pathetic style of suicido literature. He
states that his poverty is the cause of
the rash act. He is restored with dif-
ficulty, and sympathetic jjeoplc raise a
purse.for him, and he dparts. He rais-
ed $25 in this way last week at Day-
ton, and $40 at Sandusky, and depart-
ed with a " free pass " on the railroad,
to commit suicide at some other place.
Tbe re-opening of tho slave trade,
we apprehend, will not reduce the price

ined. The*subjoined report of slaves

This is the most direct route from Western
Texas to the mouth of Red River, thortening the
distance over one hundred mile'b from Huntsrille

and at Huntsville with all the western lines.
This line 'passes through a healthy country,
well supplied with the necessaries of life for both
man and beast.
The schedule time through is 72 hours, and
the proprietors hope to be able to run the line
eo as to give four or five hours rest to travellers
at Woodville,*8o miles from Huntsville, and the
same rest at Burr's Ferry on the Sabine, 90 miles
from Chaneyville.
The length of this line is 230 miles, with the

der that they may be informed of the t>fan and
purposes of the institution, ^hlch" his b$ei es-
tablished by the liberality of the EtataJfc* their

ity, by giving information of their plaee of resi-
