The following is the platform adopted by the National Convention of the Union Party held in Baltimore : i. Resolved, That it i* the highest dutv of every American citizen to maintain against all their enemies the integrity of the Union and the paramount authority of the Constitution and law* *?f the United States; aud that, laving aside all differences ami political opinion*, we pledge our . selves, us Union raeu, animated by n common I sentiment and aiming at a common object, to do I everything in our power to aid the Government iu quelling by force of arm* the rebellion now ragiug against its authority, and in bringing to the puuishxneut due to their crimes the rebel* and traitor* armed against ir. ? Resolved, That we approve the determin ation of the Government of the United State* uot to compromise with the rebel*, or to offer any terun* of pence, except *uch a* may be ba*ed upon on unconditional surrender of their hostili tie* and return to their ju*t idlegiance to the L'oustitutiou uudlaw*of the Uuited States, and . that we call upon the Government to malutaiu | this position, and to prosecute the war with the utmost possible vigor to the complete suppression of the rebellion, in the full reliance npon the self sacrificing patriotism and heroic valor, und the undying devotion of the American people to their country and Its fVee Institution*. A. liesolred, That a* slavery was the cause and now constitute* the strength of this rebellion, and a* it must be. always and everywhere hostile to the principle* of republican government, justice and the national safety demand it* utter and com plete extirpation from the soil of the Republic And that while we uphold iuuI maintain tue acts and proclamations by which the Govern ment, in its own defense, ha* aimed a death-blow at this gigantic evil, we are in favor furthermore of such an amendmeut to the Conslitntiou to be made by the people iu conformity with ita pro visions. us shall terminate forever and prohibit the existence of slavery within it* limit* or the juris diction of the United State*. 4. Rewired. That the thank* of the Amer ican people are due to the soldiers aud sailors of the Army and Navy, who have periled their lire* in defense of their couurry and in vindication of the honor of the flag; that tlie Nation owe* to them some permaueut recogni tion of their patriotism and their valor, and ample ami permanent provision for those of their survi vors who have received disabling and honorable wounds in the service of their country; and that the memories of those who have falien in its de feuse shall be held in grateftrl aud everlasting re nieiubruilre .?>. Hctoirea. i uat we approve ana appiami tne practical wisdom, the unseltish patriotism and the uuswerving fidelity to the Constitution ami the principles of American liberty with which Abra* haul Lincoln has discharged. under circuni stances of unparalleled difficulty, the great duties and re?pou>ibillties of the Presidential office; that we approve and endorse, as demanded by the emer gency and essential to the preservation ot the Nation and as withiu the provisions of the Constitution, the meusure* and acts which ho ha.- adopted to defend the Nation against its open and secret foes: that we approve especially the Proclamation of Etuaucipatiou. and the employ - nient a* Union soldiers of meu heretofore held in slavery ; and that we have full confidence in his detenniuatiou to carry outjhese and all oth er Constitutional measures essential to the salva tion of the country with tull and complete effect. 0. litsolctd, that we deem it essentia) to the general welfare that harmony should prevail in the National councils, and we regard us worthy of public confidence and official trust those ouly who cordially endorse the principle* proclaimed in these resolutions. ;ind which should characterize the ad intnirit ration of the Government. 7. lie so iced. That the Government owes to all men employed in its armies, without regard to distinction of color, tlu* full protection of the laws of war. and that any violation of these laws, or the usages of civilized nations in time of war. by the rebels now inarms, should be made, the sub ject of prompt and full redress. y. Hetolced, The foreign emigration, which in the past has added so much to the wealth, devel opment of resources and increase of power to this Nation, the asylum of the oppressed of all nations, should be fostered and encouraged by a liberal andjn?t policy. Resoiecd. That we are in favor of the stea dy construction of the Railroad to the Pacific. 10. Resoiced. That the Natioual faith, pledged for the redemption of the public debt, must be kept inviolate, and that for this purpose we re commend ecouooiy and rigid responsibility in the public expenditures, and a vigorous and just sys tem ot taxation ; that it is the dnty of every loyal State to sustain the credit and promote the use of the National currency. U. Raulrtd, That we approve the position takcu by the Governiueut that the people of the I'uitcd States can never regard with indifference the attempt of auy European power to over throw by force or to supplant the institutions of any Republican Government on the Western Continent; and that they will view with ex treme jealousy. as meuaciug to the peace and in dependence of their own conntrv, the efforts of unv such Power to obtain new footholds for mo narchical Governments, sustained by foreign military force, in near proximity to the United States.

The old lady was left entirely alone, deplorably wring ing her hands, with poverty as her only companion, and it was strongly apparent, even in her speech. She viewed first one hearty, jolly, fat-sided "Yank," then an other, as much surprised ft their gift of gab as their lack of horns, when one, an enormously huge buckeye, stepped into the yard to Quench his thirst and fill his canteen at a dilapidated specimen of a well. Says he ? " How are you, Auntyr" " Tolablc ailin', jis now." " We've got here at last." "Where did vom come from r Er yer hookers or /linkers, or is ycr i hermines ?" " There are some boys about who might, I reckon, hook a chicken or two ; but we're all Buckeyes in the pot." " Lord ! you don't say bo. I've hearn tell of trees what bore them ar nuts, but never seed any afore. How'd you git here?" "Well, if Uncle Abe wants any help, he just sings out to our Governor, up in Ohio, and when Johnny Brough shakes the trees, just as many as he wants lets go all hold entirely, and roll right down here on the hard-tack line." ?? Fore God, no Not her new line r How many lines has you'ns all got ? We'uns almos taxed t'death 'ready ? 'notber line'll hang us all sure." " Haint you folks got about as much of this as you want ?" says Buckeye." " Got r We isn't got aothin. Done loss all we ever had got. I don't see what you'ns all want, way down here to Georgy." " We come down here to stop this muss. When we get through with old Johnston, his army will all have a chance to go home and sec their relations." " But the General says you'uns dont fight fair. You shermines keep a trouhlin' of him and showin" of him in front, and your hookers keep a runnin' onto his end with your JlinJters." " Good evening /linkers," said Buckeye, and away he went, giving room for some others more qnizzical and mischievous than himself. A Peace Speech. ? J. ii. Woodward, a young man, resident of Ohio, and at one time Adjutant of an Indiana regiment, was called out at a recent peace meeting, and reponded as follows : Gentlemen? The great cry that 1 have heard to-day has been peace, peace. I tell you that there is no man in the nation who desires peace more than I do ; a permanent, lasting peace. (Cheers.) And gentlemen, I will tell you how we will get it. Fight this war out. Take every negro in the rebel States, and exterminate every d? drebel, no matter where you find him. (Hisses.) Gentlemen, you need not try to hiss me down, for I am an old soldier, and I have faoed almost as mean a looking crowd as is now before me. I mean the thieves and bushwhackers of Tennessee. I know I was called upon to make a speech out of derision, and I intend to tell you what I think of you. When God said he would save Sodom, if ten righteous men could be found there, I have no doubt he would have done it ; and, to-day, if you all stood upon the brink of bell, and he were to say he would save you if one loyal man could be found among you, I have not the least doubt but there would be a great many strange faces in hell for supper. Gentle men, when yon wish to hear from ma again, you have only to call upon me. I am always at home. Test of Death. ? When fire is applied to a living body a blister filled with liquid is soon raised, and if the heat be contin ued, the epidermis ia destroyed. But when the same heat is applied to a dead body, the epidermis rises in the form of a blister, which . is filled with vapor, and which presently bursts. The test has been proposed by M. Martin de Courdoux, to ascertain if a person be really dead before the burial. In performing the test the author recommends a small flame, such as the flame of a match, to be applied for a short time at about half a centimetre from the skin. Jones and. Brown were talking of a I young clergyman, whose preaching they j had heard that day. The sermon was very poor. " What do you think of I him ?" inquired Brown. " I think," said Jones, "he did much better two years ago." " Why, he didn't preach at all then," said Brown. " True," replied Jones ; " that is what I mean." A very intemperate man in London, named Papworth, recently went to bed tipsy, and in the night called for water. His daughter brought him lemonade in a bottle, and left him. He was found dead next day, with the bottle sticking out of his mouth, which he must have tried to swallow, and so suffocated himself. A Savahnah editor found it "supremely disagreeable " to hear the reverberation of the Yankee cannon at Fort Pulaski in honor of the birthday of liberty. Only one thing could have been more disgust img? to hear the "Yankee subjugator" read the Declaration of Independence. Somebody made the i remark that a cra dle was a woman's proper ballot-box; somebody else wished to know if the mothers of triplets were not liable to arrest tor illegal Toting. CONSTITUTION OP NEVADA. The following is a complete and correct abstract of the Constitution of the State of Nevada, adopted on the seventh day of Sep tember. It is greatly condensed, occupying but a fraotion of the room required for the publication of the whole document, but will be found equally useful and far more con venient for reference : Preceding the Constitution proper is a rendu tion adopting the Constitution of the United states and au ordinance forever prohibiting ?la* very, securing perfect religious toleration, dis claiming forever all right and title to unappropri ated public lands, which are left to the sole din posit iou of the United State*; exempting from taxation all lands and other property of the Uni ted States, and declaring that land*' of non-resi dent* shall not be taxed higher than land* of cltl senn of the proposed stato. These enactments are made in compliance with the terms of the Ena bling Act, and are declared irrevocable without the consent of the United 8tutex and of the people of tbo State of Nevada. The preamble to the Constitution is the same as that of the old Constitution. It reads thus: " We, the people of the State of Nevada, grate ful io Almighty God for our freedom, in order to seen re its blowing*, insure domestic tranquility and form a more perfect Government, do estab lish this Constitution." ARTICLE I ? DECLARATION OF RIGHTS. Section 1 declare* all men by nature tree and equal, postering certain inalienable rights, etc., the language ot the section being merely an am pGticatkm of the Declaration of Independence. ?S;ccion 0 averts that the doctrine of the inhe rent political power of the people, and their right to establish or change their form of Government, and continues: "But tho paramount allegiance of every citizen la due to the Federal Govern ment, in the exercise of all its constitutional pow ers.uB the same have been or may be defined by the Supreme Court of the United Statei ?, and no power exists iu the people of this or any other state of the Federal Union to dissolve their con nection therewith, or perform any act tending to impair, subvert or resist the supremo authority of the Government of the United States. The Con?titution of the United States confers full power on the Federal Government to maintain and perpetuate its existence, and whensoever any portion of the States, or people thereof, attempt to secede from the Federal Union, or forcibly re sist tho execution of its lawn, the Federal Gov ernment may, by warrant of tho Constitution, employ armed force in ''ompelling obedience to it* authority." Section a establishes the right of trial by jury, but provides that three-fourth* of a jury iu any civil case may lind a verdict unless the LegiBla ture by a two-thirds vote shall require such ver dicts to be unanimous. Section 4 requires perfect religious tole*"ition and freedom of con*cicuce. No person to be ex cluded as u witnehs on nccount of religions opin* lens. /_ .Section 5 secures tho writ of habeas corpus, except in cane* of rebellion or invasion. Section 6 prohibits oxcesfiive bail, cruel or un usual punishments, etc Section 7 requires that all persons accused shall l>e bailable, except for capital offenses. Section 8 prohibits trials for crime except on presentment or indictmenl, nod establishes tho usual aafcg uards as to personal and property right*. Section I) secures the freedom of speech and of the pre an, and allows the truth to be given in ev idence, in Actions for libel, by way of justification. Section 10 establishes the right of the people to hold public meetings, etc. Section 11 subordinates the military to the civil power, prohibits a standing army in time of peace, and limits army appropriations in time of war to two years. Section 10 forbids the billeting of ?oldier?. Section 13. Representation shall bo apportioned according to population. Section 14 requires the exemption of a reasonable amount of property from execution for debt, and forbids imprisonment for debt, " except in case of fraud, libel or slander. " Section 15 forbids the passage of any bill of at tainder, ex post facto law, or law impairing the obligation of contracts. Section lt? secures to foreigners, on becoming bona fide residents, the same property rights as native-born citizen?. Sectiou 1? prohibits slavery. Section IK protects the peopie aguinst unreas onable searches and seizures, and restrict* the is suing of search warrants. Section 19 defines treason against the State (as in the United States Constitution), and requires for conviction " the testimony of two witqesnes to tho suum overt act, or confession in open Court." Section 'JO reserves to tho people any und all rights not enumerated. The moM considerable change from the old Constitution in this Article is in the " paramount allegiance*' clause of Section 2, which in the old Constitution read thus : " Bnt the paramount al legiance of every citizen is duo to the Federal Government ; and no power exists in tho people of this or any other State in the Federal Union to dixMjlve their connection therewith, or perform any act tendiug to impair, subvert or resist the supreme authority of the Government of the United States. The Conntitutlon of the United Mates confers ftill power ou the Federal Govern ment to maintain and perpetuate its existence, and whensoever any portion of the States, or peo ple thereof, attempt to secede from the Federal Uniou, or forcibly resist the execution of Its laws, the Federal Government may, by warrant of tho Constitution, employ armed force in compelling obedience to its authority." Section 11 of the old Constitution, prohibiting the Legislature from granting special privileges, etc., was stricken out, as beiug sufficiently provi ded ioj in the article on Legislative Department. The words "libel or slander" were inserted in Section 14, relative to imprisonment for debt, on account of the adoption of striugent provi sions for the prevention and punishment ofduelllng The provision in Section 19, relative to con-, victions of treason, was not contained in the old Constitution. ARTICLE II? RIGHT OK suffrage. Section 1 confers the right of suffrage on every while male citizen ot the United atateH, twenty one years ol ago and upward*, " who shall have actually and not constructively resided in the State nix mohths, and iu the district or county thirty days next preceding any election pro vides that no person convicted of treason or felony in any State or Territory of the United States, unless restored to civil rights, and no person who, after arriving at the age of eighteen years, shall have voluntarily borne arm* against the United States or held "civil or military office under the so-called Confederate States, or either of them, unless an amnesty be granted to such by the Federal Government, and no idiot or Insane per son, shall be entitled to the privilege of an elector. Section 2 provides that no person shall be deemed to have gained or lost residence for the purpose of voting while in the service of the United States, while a student in any seminary of learning, nor while kept in any almshouse, asy lum or prison at the public expense. Soction 3 secures the right of suffrage to United States soldiers and sailors. No poll uu or regis tration is required of such voters. Section 4 prohibits arrests on civil process on election days. action 5 provWes that all elections by the peo ple shall be by ballot, and by the Legislature I viva voce. Section 6 requires the enactment of a registry law, and authorizes the Legislature to prescribe rules or oaths as tests of electoral qtfhlificatfon! Section 7 requires the levying of an annual poll tax of from two to four dollars, on ull male resi dents between the ages of twenty-one and sixty years of age, uncivilized American I diaas ex cepted, one-half to go for State and one-half for county purposes. The payment of such tax may, in the discretion of the Legislature, be made a condition to the right of voting. Section d relates to the qualifications of voters on the adoption or rejection of this Constitution. In Section 1 the words "actually and not con structively" were not in the old Constitution.? 1 They were inserted to prevent the possibility of reckoning the residence or the voter from the time he leaves some other fctate or county to come to Nevada. Iu the last paragraph of the sec lion, after "Idiot or insane," the words "or disloyal person" occurred in the old Constitution. These were stricken out on the ground of vague ness and uncertainty, and because tho preceding part of tho proviso was alleged to cover the ground sufficiently. The provision in Section C regarding additional oaths or tests of electoral qualifications wan not contained, at least specifically, in the old Con stitution. There are some other changes in the Article, but relating mainly to phraseology and arrangement. article hi? distribution or powers. This Article is identical with that of the old Constitution? dividing the powers of the Gov. ernment into Legislative. Executive and Judicial Departments, each separate and distinct from the others.
