The Democratic National Platform. v The platform, after reaffirming that of 2 1852, adverts to the American party, sta- d ting that the Democracy should clearly de- c lino tluir relations thereto. Then follow C resolutions stating, in substance, that the " foundation of tlie Union having been built 1 upon entiro freedom in matters of religion, with no respect to persons or regard to rauk or place of birth, no party can iustlv T l" * " " " * bo deemed National, Constitutional, or in accordance with American principles, which bases its exclusive organisation upon religious opinions or accidental birth-place. It P also reiterates tlie declaration of former Conventions on the subject of slavery and 1 the reserved rights of all the States; and, ? to more distinctly meet the issue with a sectional party subsisting exclusively on slavery agitation. I Resolved, That the Democracy recognise . and adopt the principles contained in the organio laws establishing the territories of Nebraska and Kansas, us embodying the only sound and safe solution of the slavery question upon which the great national ? . idea of the people of this country can re- t pose in its determined conservatism of ^ union and non-interfereuce by Congress with slavery in the Slates and Territories. That, by uniform application of this Democratic principle, the organisation of the { territories, and the admission of new Slates with or without slavery, as they elect, the ( equal rights of the States will l>e preserved 1 intact, the original compacts of the Con- i Ktitution maintained inviolate, and the per- ( pelualion and expansion of the Union iusured to its utmost capacity of embracing^ in peace and harmony, every futune American State. \ Resolved, That we recognise the right of Ihe people of all the Territories, including Kansas and Nebraska,-acting through the 1 fairly expressed will of the majority of ac- I tual residents, and whenever the number of their inhabitants justifies it, to form a constitution, with or without domestic slavery, , and to bo admitted into the Union upon terms of perfect equality with the other States. i Resolved, That in view of the condition of the popular institutions of the old world and the dangerous tendencies of sectional agitation, combined with an attempt to i cnforcc eivil and religious disabilities against the right of acquiring citizenship in our own land, a high and sacred duty has devolved increased responsibility upon the 1 Democratic -party of this country, as the 1 party of the Union, to uphold and maintain-the rights of*every State and thereby the Union of the States, and to sustain and ndvanco. among us constitutional liberty, by continuiug to resist all monopolies and exclusive legislation for the benefit of a few flf f.VlA r\f * ??|/v..wu V( Uiitiij f nnu uy fl Vigllttlll adherence to these principles, and to the compromises of the Constitution, which are broad and strong enough to embrace and uphold the Union as it was, the Union as ? it is, and the Union asitshall be, in the full expression of the energies and capacities of tbis -great progressive people. The committee stated that the Kansas Nebraska-part of the platform was adopted with perfect unanimity. The committee did-not have perfect unanimity upon the forgoing policy suggested,- but recommend 1 "It heartily. 1 The following are the resolutions appended to the platform : , 1. Resolved, That the qusestions con- , nected with our foreign policy are inferior to no domestic question whatever; then 1 the time has come for the people of the ' United States to declare themselves in favor of free seas, and a progressive free^trade throughout the world, and, by solemn manifestations, to place their moral influence < ' l?y the side of their successful example. i 2.

Tho telegraph, yesterday, announced lint Jaines Buchanan, of Pennsylvania, ad, upon tlio seventeenth ballot of the Naional Democratic Convention, received tho ominatiou for the Presidency. This auouncement will fall somewhat unexpectdly upon tho ears of the people of this Hate, whoso preferences for Mr. Pierce, in onsideration of his faithfulness to the conlitutional rights of tho South, have been o constantly expressed. To us it bring* 10 surprise whatever; and our readers will 'cry well remember how frequently we lavo expressed the conviction that Mr, ,'ierco would not receive the nomination n tho face of those who urged his claiinF is a reason whv tho Htntn Htinnl.l mriul ? ? t? )ate iu the nominating Convention. Next to Mr. Pierce, the expectations lud, wo may add, the preferences of th? >eople of the State were for Mr. Douglas is one who had boldly planted himself up )? the side of the South in the pending :ontests with abolition. The Columbii Convention certainly favored Mr. Douglas n a most unequivocal manner, and iti eaders did not-hesitate to express their pref reticos accordingly. But lie lias sharet he fate of Mr. Pierce, and thus the firsi k-parture from a wise aud established poli jy?the first concession to mere tempora y expediencies?the first affiliation will National caucuses?h;ie been rebuked bj lie signal disappointment of those win ed the movement.

They are bound to endorse hinr while lamenting his nomination and secret ly burning over their fallen hopes. W< can support hint with a hearty independ u'lice?they must check the expressions c [ .hagrin, and school their lips to reluctar applause. As for Mr. Buchanan himself, he is froi his whole eminent public, career, in preset circumstanccs, as acceptable a man as coul be presented to the support of tho SoutV ern people. lie has great political exper ence, great moderation of character, a thoi ough acquaintance with our foreign an domestic politics, and has always main i .! 1 il - " ' utiuvu iiiosti principles or conscrvausm li?J are, in these times of wild nnd lawlessac venture, so important to the peace, dignity and honorable character, of the confede acy.

Washington, May 29.?A messag from the President was received by bot Houses of Congress, announcing the di missal of Mr. Crampton, with the revoci tion of the exequators of the implicate CodsuIs. The message also enclosed M Marcv's renlv to Lor<l Clnronflnn flnfn 27th." Mr. Mnrcy says the President had can fully considered thQ.note of Lord Clarendo of 30th April, and -was much gratified l> its conciliatory spirit and desire tostrengtl en the friendly relations between.-the tw governments, as well as tbe declaimer < any intentipn to violote ,tbo laws of tb United StB|es,^nd^a}8p, ^jtpressions of r< gretthat contrary to tbir intention and d rection of the British Government, tber had beep.such-an infringement.

It is a mistake, and a serious mistake, to soppose that the recent diflicnlties in and about Lnwrence were occasioned by any considerable number of bona fide Kansas settlors from the free States.

We have already given brief accounts of lie great outbursts of indignation in the Northern cities at tli? recent assault in tlie 1 Jnited Stntes Senate Chamber. Two ?>r liree papers down-east have looked at the 'J natter in n more rational wjiy. They see j hat the brutality and indecency t>f Mr. . Sumner had their natural result in the chas- 1 isement which he received. On Sunday norning we priute<l an extract to that effect 1 rom that old respectable conservative paper ho Boston Courier. Nearly nil the other , >npers consider the matter simply from an inti-slavery point of view, giving no credit o the provocation, and seeing nothing in , lie affair but only an exhibition of South- , ?rn violence, determined to force its opinons down the throats, or through the cpi- ' icrmis of the North. A sensible and unprejudiced man would first consider whether the assault might not have originated in motives entirely dis- , joined froin this. Mr. Sumner abused personally not only an old gray-haired Senator, but lacked ihfi grace even in his animosity against that gentleman, to abstain from assailing the State which he represents. The people of South Carolina were abused by him in the most shameless language ? language which, independently of old seci: 1 m -??" 1__ uuiiiii i-iM-jtiuiuirn, wa> Munuieut iu jirovoKe and perplex in the extreme the men who represent her in Congress.

The idea about the want of time is a mere phantom. Franklin found time in the midst of all his labors to dive into the hidden recesses of philosophy, ami to explore the untrodden path of science. The great Fedorvk, with an empire at his direction, in the midst of war, on the eve of battles which were to decide the fate of his Kingdom, found time to revel in the charms of philosophy and intellectual pleasures, lionnpart, with all Europe at his disposal, witli kings in hip anti-chamber begging for vacant thrones, with'thousands of men whose destinies were ever suspended by the brittle thread ot' his arbitrary pleasure, had time to converse with books.
