The Vallanaingham Platform. The following arc among the resolutions adopted by the Democracy of Montgomery County, umo, who assembled on tbe 18th inst., in Daytou, to el,ect 'delegates to the State Democratic Convention, which met on the 1st of June: liesolved, By the Democracy of Montgomery County? First?That agreeing to disagree in all respects as to the past, we cordially unite upon the living issues of the el ay, and liereby invite all men of the "Republican party who believe now upon present issues as we believe, +? on.nnof.itd fully and actively with VV VV V?/V.?.- ^ w us upon the basis of perfect equality Avitli every member of the Democratic party. Second?That waiving all differences of opinion as to tho extraordinary /means by which they were brought about, \ve accept the natural and legitimate results of the war so far as aged lor its ostensible purpose to maintain the Union and the Constitutional rights and powers of the Federal Government, including the three several amendments tie facto ito the Constitution recently declared .adopted, as a settlement in fact of all the issues of the war, and acquiesce in the same as no longer issues before the country. Third?That thus burying out of sight all that is ot the dead past? namely, t-nc ngni ui suul'ssjuu, oiuvwij, inequality before the law, and jiolitical inequality*,* and further, now that reconstruction is complete, and representation within the Union restored to all the States, waiving all question as to the means by which it was accomplished, we demand that the vital and long established rulo of stiict construction, as proclaimed by the democratic fathers, accepted by the statesmen of all parties previous to ho wnr. and embodied in the Tenth | Amendment to the Constitution, be | rigorously applied now to the Consti-1 tutiorj as it is, including the three reecnt amendments above referred to; and insist that these amendments shall not be held to have in any respect altered or modified the Federal Government as designed and taught ;by its founders, and repeatedly, in early times, in later times, and at all <imes, affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States; but only to have enlarged the powers delegated to it, and to that extent, and.no more, to have abridged tho reserved rights tuciniM. ?rw? t.h.'it as thus con ,Vl tiiv t^UIVVO } MOV. ... _ strued according to these ancient and well established rules, the Democratic party pledges itself to the full, faithful and absolute execution and en-J /orcemcnt of the Constitution a* it now is, so as to secuce equal rights to all persons under it, without distinction of race, color, or condition. Fourth--That the absolute equality of each and every Stato in the Union is a fundamental principle of the Fed- j oral Government, and that no depart-j meut of the Government has power to expel a State from the Union, or) to deprive it, under any pretext what-! ever, of its-equal rights therein, including especially the right of full and complete representation in Congress and the Electoral College. mi i . __ ? ? 4.110 lXJbV luuuno iiivjimvu supported by Mr. Yallandingham, and were designed to furnish a thorough, comprehensive and explicit answer to the chargo that the Democ. racy are hostilo to tho settlements made by the war, and if restored to j power would repeal tho Constitutional .Amendments. This charge has been industriously circulated by Senator Morton and his followers of the Republican party, and was designed to make a living issuo upon ground where they hoped to win an easy victory. Mr.. Vallandingham, in behalf of tho Democracy, now disavows .any repudiation of the war settlements, or any wish to disturb the accomplished facts of reconstruction. "With regard to tho platform, he says: ' It is not a new departure, but a return?the restoration of tho Democratic party once more to the ancient platform of progress and reform, establishing tho erreat fact that that party, like everything elso in nature intended to endure, is capable of adapting itself to the perpetual growth and chango which belong aliko to the political and physical world, and retain yet intact the original principles and laws of its being. Moreover, as to the movement here, wo all bear witness that in it thero is nothing of a merely personal 'character either to advance or to hinder any member of the Democratic party, and nothing except tho earnest and fixed purpose - O iL- 1. to promote tne weuure ox mo n.u?n; country." Some of our contemporai'ies, tbo Chronicle & Sentinel, tbo Memphis Appeal, tbo Mobile Itc$i3/er'taud others, oppose this new departure, as giving up too much, and so sacrificing all that is distinctive in Democracy. Bnt after all, it is giving up nothing 1 which can be safely retained, and seeks to make in the next Prcsidental contest'the only issues upon which the Democracy can hope for success. If the Democrats arc willing to stand on these issues, in the language of Mr. Adams "Surely paroled prisoners may accept them." To rcjcct them, is to dictate to those by whom the I battle is to bo fouirht. and who are O / I presumed to know best the stato of: public opinion at home.The New York Jury Law. The Xcw York journals have been commenting with symo severity upon the defects of thei?- present jury law, as illustrated in the recent Foster trial, and have clearly pointed out the numerous absurdities into which it necessarily leads. One panel of five j I hundred was exhausted in obtaining 'frm Jnrnrs nnd theremaining two iu-1 ' ? - I rors were only obtained after exhausting new panels of several hundred each. More than a week was thus consumed, because the law as interpreted makes the formation of an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of a prisoner, an absolute disqualication for serving as a juror in his case. The law imposes vexatious delays, and after all, defeats the ends of justice j by securing the most incompetent jurors to try the case'. The law is based upon two absurd i suppositions: 1. That with the present, riifFiisinn of intelligence. the fffCat | body of the community do not form some.opinion with regard to every important event which transpires in their midst ; and, 2. That such an opinion hastily foimcd, upon partial evidence, can interfere with the due consideration of the sworn testimony in tho case. To find one who has formed no opinion, is to go beyond the reach of the newspapers, , 1 "^ o!-/% i lir* nrpmlnm illill 1/1/ liiflivv i^iiv/tuuw vuv vm.iu*-. for a seat in the jury box. But to suppose, further, that tho first-impressions .will interfere with the prop-1 ^ or discharge of a sworn duty in the' subsequent investigation, is to form a ! very low estimate of human nature, and to mistake very much the laws 1 which justify confidence between men, * and uphold the framework of society. 1 Experience proves that our judgments * arc as fluctuating as the air, and aro moulded by a* thousand varying circumstances. Tho true rulo ou the subject 6cems to be that of Massachusetts?that the formation of an opinion of the guilt or innocence of a pris- j oner is no objection to the juror, unless it co-exists with such prejudice |j against hlra as will prevent tho rendering of an impartial verdict. !< In some of tho States tho Scotch j Jury System has been introduced,! which provides that fifteen shall form . the jury, and that a two-thirds vote j shall be sufficient to justjfy a verdict, j In the Scotch jurisprudence there is | also a-verdict of "not proven," which < ioaves the accused liable to bo tried , again for the same offcncc. Tho two- } thirds or majority sj*stcm prevails in j other departments of the government, and perhaps would bo equally appli- t cable to jury trials. Tho ancient jury system has been j jbeen much modified, and the adoption j of the one prevailing in Scotland [might very much promote the uffi-j, ! ciency of the criminal administration ( of the law. , ' , Trial* Justices.?The Supreme:5 Court has affirmed the Coustitu-ij -l- a lftnr /ikaofinnc fl'voi"' [lOIlillliy U1 U1C lU?v Vivuiiug itiv i Court of Trial Justice, in the case;* of the State cx rcl, Robert II.

Whatever else may be thought of f lip "Npw Ynrlr Herald, itis Universally conceded to reflect most "admirably the shifting phases of public sentiment, to discern most clearly "the signs of the times," aud to forecast with rare sagacity the horoscope of the future. With rare sources of information, and without the bias 0f partisan interest it has the sagacity to sec, and the independence to point out, the errors into which both the great political parties of tho country are falling. It? views of the past and fut.urc policy of Democracy seem to harmonize entirely with those of Xr. Vallandingham and Mr. John Quincy Adams, as recently set forth. Iu the Chicago Democratic Conrcn lion oi isui, a lew important worus introduced by Mr- Vallandingham? that "the war for the Union is a failure" and ought to be stopped, were sufficient to ensure the defeat of the party?Again in the great National Democratic Convention of 1SGS, Vallandingbam and Hampton repeated the blunder of 1SGS, in putting into the platform the fatal resolution declaring the whole reconstruction sj'stcm, "unconstitutional, revolutionary and void." The late victory in New Hampshire undulj- elated the Democracy, and provoked some indiscreet ntterauces from Mr. Davis and oilier Southern leaders, and it required tiie refluent tide of defeat in Connecticut to bring them to a just appreciation of tho situation. To this point they have now arrived,and Mr. Vallandingham, Mr. Adams, and the Pennsylvania Democracy all stand now on Ohio platform. Slate by State, North by South, the democracy will full in ivitli Pennsylvania, so that, by the year 1872, they will be relieved of the Jcadwcights of the war which, in 18G4 and 18CS, broke them down. ' Let the Democratic party," says the Llerald, "now that the men of Pennsylvania have eleared the track, jring out General Sherman as their candidate on the constitution and the Eu Klux question, and instead of' neandering about for another gcn-i .'ration in the Dismal Swamp of dead ssucb, they may, even iu 1S72, and ilmost certainly in 1876,'advance to lia AninvmpntR nf fhn While House md the uational Capitol." RELIGIOUS. On Sunday last the Rev. AW P. DuBose, of Trinity Church, prcachod a jcrmou in which he presented a very nteresting review of the proceedings )f the recent Episcopal Diocesan Convention, held in Charleston. The neeting of the Convention was one jf the most important and instructive which lie had ever attended, and furnished hopeful evidenco of the future prosperity of the Church. The argencssof the attendance betokened tho religious interest which prevailed, and the harmony which charicterized it, was most cheering. Differences existed, and the prer.cher Jeprecated any attempt to reduce .hese to any Procrustean standard of icad uniformity. The effect must jc to cause either the slavery of Papal infallibility, or the countless schisms jf dissent. On the contrary, to permit these antagonisms of feeling, of ioctrine. aud of ritual, to co-exist in I Lhc same religious body, is to produce :ho grand resultant?truth. The speaker congratulated the Diocese on Llio election of tho now assistant Bishop, the Rev. W. B. Ilowe, as one eminently qualified to guido the Church through the evils which en[ iron her. Jfo said he came back ^o his own church moro than ever atisfied to remain, and with renewed c6olGtion to spare neither her nor himself in prosecuting the missionary work of the Diocese. ?> HaJ- .Rev.

E."-President Davis.-?Mr. Davis lias been reeentlv visiting Co lutnbia, Augusta, and other Southem cities, and his presence has evoked an enthusiasm justly due to his high character and eminent services. But we think that softie of his utterances at this time especially, come most in-opportuncly, and subject as they are to misconception and perversion, will give capital to our foes in the coming elections. It would be well if the Ex-President would take for his model the wise reticence of the Patriot Soldier, whose bones now rest beneath the dust of the valley. 23-T* ^c0 Davis eolored was sentenced on Monday last to twenty-five I days imprisonment in the county jail by Trial Justice Hemphill?
