FOR VICE PRESIDENT: Schuyler Colfax, Os I SI) IAN A. KKt’l HI.HMX I*l.ATf'OKltt. The National Republcau party of the United States, assembled in National Convention, in the city of Chi cago, on the 90th day of May, 1868, make the following Declaration of l*rtnciples : lft. We congratnlnto the country on the assured •m - cesa of the reconstruction policy of Congress, ai evinced by the adoption, in a majority of the States lately in rebellion, of Constitutions securing equal civil aud political rights to all, aud regard it »s the doty of the Government to auKlaiu those institutions, and to prevent the people of such States from being remitted to a state of anarchy. 2d. The guarantee, by Congress, of equal suffrage to all loyal men in the South was demanded by every con - sideratiou of public safety, of gratitude and of Justice, aud must bo maintained, while the question of sutfiage In all the loyal States properly belongs to the people of those States. 3d. We denounce all forms of repudiation as a na* tional crime, and the national honor requires the pay ment of the public indebtedness, in the utmost good faith, to all creditors, at home and abroad, not only according to the letter, but the spirit of the laws under which it was contracted. 4th. It is due to the labor of iho nation that taxation should be equalized and reduced ns rapidly as the na tional faith will permit. sth. The national debt, contracted, as it has been, for the preservation of the Union for till time to come, should be extended over a fair period for redemption, and it is the duty of Congress to reduce the rate of in terest thereon, whenever it can honestly be done. 6th. That the best policy to diiuiuish our burden of debt is to so improve our credit that capitalists will seek to loan ns money at lower rates of interest than we now pay, and must continue to pay, so long as repudiation, partial or total, open or covert, is threatened or sus pected. 7th. The Government of the United States should be administered with the strictest economy, and the cor ruptions which have been so shamefully nursed and fostered by Andrew Johnson call loudly ffcr ridDnl re form. Bth. We profoundly deplore the untimely and tragic death of Abraham Lincoln, aud regret the accession of Andrew Johnson to the Presidency, who has acted treacherously to the people who elected him and the cause he was pledged to support ; has usurped high legislative and judicial functions; has.refused to exe cute the laws; has used his high office to induce other officers to ignore and violate the laws; has employed his executive powers to render insecure the property, peace, liberty and life of the citizen; has abused the pardoning pow er; has denounced the National Legisla ture as unconstitutional; has persistently and corruptly resisted, by every measure in his power, every proper attempt at the reconstruction of tho States lately in re bellion; has perverted the public patronage into an engine of wholesale corruption; and has been justly impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and properly pronounced guilty thereof by the vote of thirty-five Senators. Dtlj- The doctrine of Great Britain and other European powers, that because a man is once a subject, he is always so, must be resisted nt every hazard by the United States, as a relic of the feudal time, not author ized by the law’ of nations, and at war with our national honor and independence. Naturalized citizens are enti tled to be protected in all their rights of cilizeuship as' though they were natural born, and no citizen of the United States, native or naturalized, must be liable to arrest *nd imprisonment, by any foreign power, for nets done, or words spoken, in this country, and if so arrested and imprisoned, it is the duty of the Government to interfere in his behalf. 10th. Os all who were faithful in the trials of tho Into war, there were none entitled lo more especial honor than the brave soldiers and seamen, who endured the hardships of the campaign and cruise, ami imperilled their lives in the service of the country. The bounties and pensions provided by law for these brave defenders of the nation are obligations never to l»e forgotten. The widows and orphans of the gallant dead are the wards of the people, a sacred legacy bequeathed to the nation’s protecting care. * 11th. Foreign immigration, which in the past has added so much to the wealth, development of resources, and increase of power of this nation, the asylum of the oppressed of nil nations, should be fostered and encour aged by a liberal and just policy. 12th. This Convention declares its sympathy with all the oppressed people which are struggling for their lights. DEMO Cl!. I 77 V CONS IS TUNC Y. 1 lie lK*»t wav to judge of the principles of ;t political party i.> by their arts. The Democrats claim to be the only conserva tors of justice and the people’s rights. They have a fatal facility for misrepresent ing their opponents, and with the mo t unblushing effrontery charge all their sins of omission and commission upon their adversaries. To read tlieir newspapers one would suppose that all their troubles of the last few years were the direct results of Kepitblican rule and Republican principles, and that such si thing as an armed rebellion to destroy the Government had never existed, much less that the Democratic party were the instigators to it, and solely responsible for every evil that followed in its train. Vet, in spite of all its preten sions, the people will never forget that the party ia everywhere and always hostile to justice, and only actuated by a desire to secure power for evil ends, and, when once secured, to perpetuate it. As ail illustration in point, the St. Louis Dimocrat refers to some late action of the Ohio Legislature, a modern Democratic body of lawmakers. They have recently passed an act known as the ‘‘visible ad mixture bill," which denies the right of suffrage to all persons who have a visible admixture of negro blood, and subjects any who are suspected of partial and re mote descent from Ham to a series of im pertinent questions. This law was in direct violation of the State Constitution, as expounded by the Supreme Court. A week or two since Judge Stephenson Burke, of the Court of Common Pleas, charged the grand jury of Summit county that this act was null and void, and that no atten tion ought to be paid to it. This, of course, soon came to the ears of the Demo crats in the Legislature, and immediate steps were taken to secure the party from a more effectual judicial decision on the constitutionality ot the act. A resolu. tion was introduced in the House looking to the “impeachment" of the Judge who dared to give an opinion that a law panged by this immaculate Legislature was unconstitutional. On the same day a member of the Senate, mid the same who was the* author of the bill dis franchising students, introduced a bill to regulate proceedings in the Supreme Court. It provides that eases shall not be taken up out of their regular order. A the docket is now very full, this bill, it it passes, and it undoubtedly will, must pre vent any decision on the visible admixture act that will be binding, until after the October election. Ibe intent is, as a matter of course, to disfranchise large elasse of legal voters, mid prevent a true expression of the will of the people, both in State ami Nation, at the autumn election;;, flic, infamousplnti will prolmbly succeed, and thus one more Instance will be recorded of the corrupt ami villainous inconsistency of modern Democracy. Let them be repeated, for they nil help to tench the people that no party is to be trusted that does not take the immutable principles of justice for its guide. • si. J. The telegram from Washington brings intelligence tlmt Andrew Johnson has been, virtually, acquitted iu the high court of Impeachment—notwithstanding tho (act tlmt when tho President, cither by blind blundering, or from malicious obstinacy, violated tho Tenure of-office law on the twenty-first of February, the Senate said upon their solemn authority'** legislators, that he had no right or authority to re move tho Secretary of War and appoint an ad interim substitute. Seven Republi cans anti all the Democrats linvo voted since, that it was mt cause for impeach ment. It is not likely that the considera tions which led them to vote in this way will bo lessened by the interval of time. The break in the Republican line by Sena tors who have been looked upon as leaders, iu point of ability, makes a cover for the defection of such ns can be operated upon by outer inducements that have encompas sed this trial, and thus it is unlikely that time will work anything in favor of Sena torial dignity. The Democratic Senators admit the acts charged—the insurrectionary declaration against Congress, the violation of the Tenure of-Ofiice art, and the attempt to defeat the Reconstruction acts-- aud justify them. They admit the violation of an act by the Executive, aud the attempt to de feat other acts. The Republican Senators who went with them do not. deny the insurrectionary declaration against Con gress; they have voted that he violated the law in the Stanton-Tbomas affair; and they admit that he has tried to prevent the execution of the Reconstruction acts. Thus they admit the case of misdemeanor legally made out. The case at law is thus estab lished by unanimous judgment. The ver dict after that was a matter of moral sense a measurement of the desert of such a crime; and this brought it into the sphere of the sympathies. On nil the points involved in this long controversy between the President and Congress, the opinions of intelligent men are made up on the one side or the other; and tlie quarrel is now adjourned to a higher tribunal than the Senate-—the great forum of the People. * MORE JILO H7A a: 1 A correspondent of the Atlanta hXeu Era writes to that paper from Dalton, Ga. : It is not doubted by any one, or by either party, but that Governor Bullock is mainly indebted to the I'm and Governor Brown for his election. How far Governor Bullock would be willing to recognize this fact, 1 can't say, but beyond a doubt, such is the case. I venture that Governor Bullock will not repudiate these two valuable sources of cooperation. We “venture" to express the opinion that the Governor elect has no idea of re pudiating his friends, and trust the agita tion of tin* Km is premature. Really, though, this porpoise like blowing of so respectable a journal is not warranted by simple tacts. Most reflecting persons are under the impression that the “Fifth District" (ours) did pretty well in the late campaign- but we're not going to blow about it. * I'lle Tklkgu.u’h \mi tin; Goveiinmknr.

Jn that time the whiskey manufactured in New York alone, if it had paid the lax, would have yielded more than the entire amount collected in the whole country.

Th* Republican Nomination The Candidate {serenaded— Grant Endorse* the Platform of Principles—Great Enthusiasm -A SianiJUant ■eL '* ~" n S,r - /VXe > "J Maine — Traitors in ttjnce ilribery of Senators—Position of trhief Justice Chase — The Remainin'/ Articles of /•Mpcackment. Washhkjtos, D. C., May 23, 1868. Tho long agony is over; Grant and Colfax aro to be the Republican standard bearers lor the campaign for the next four years. Ihe Convention, representing the people, ignored the schemers, who, for the last -six month?, have been holding a roil over tho heads ul their political associates, and very wisely adopted a platform ot principles, and admitted the Southern delegates, before se lecting candidates. A few individuals who had assume 1 the exclusive control not only °f General Grant, hut of the whole Republi can party, insisted tint* the nomination of Grant should he secured first; hut, upon reaching Chicago, their project was not lis tened to for a moment. On Thursday alter noon the platform of principles was received here by telegraph. Anxious to learn whether approved of or not by General Grant, I at once sought an interview, when he frankly stilted that tin y met his entire approval. This was tin- first time lie ever openly en dorsed Republican principles, although his course lias leaned in that direction. When hit attention was called to his not having made n declaration before, and many had been in doubt as to his real political views, he promptly stated there had been no occa sion for him to express any opinion before. Grant’s reticence upon all subjects is charac teristic ol the man of his whole life. He has been frequently urged to express some wish as to who should be placed upon the ticket with him, but never has indicated any pref erence whatever. Now he says no better man could have been selected than Mr. Colfax. Their personal friendship com menced early in the late war, and nothing lias occurred to intenupt it. Since the announcement of the nomina tions on Thursday, there has been a constant stream of visitors going towards the resi dences of Grant and Colfax—the former on 1 street, north, near New Jersey avenue, formerly occupied by General Breckinridge ; and the tatter, No. 7 President square, known as the Stockton mansion, and at one time occupied by General Sickles. At both houses, all visitors have been received with unaffected cordiality. Among the visitors I have observed Democrats as well as Radical and Conservative Republicans—many of the former class already declare their intention of voting the Republican ticket. The wis dorn shown by the Convention in the selection of candidates, and in the platform, will unite the party in one solid phalanx from ocean to ocean. A few disappointed men will undoubtedly slough off, of this number I feel mortified in being forced to say that Chief Justice Chase is one. The evidence of his seeking a Democratic nomi nation, and of the treachery to the principles he has always advocated, accumulate every day. His position reminds uie of what Dante says he saw in Malebolge: “A strange encounter between a human form and a serpent. After a severe contest they stood glaring at each other, when suddenly both were enveloped iu a cloud, aud a wonderful metamorphosis began. The serpent’s tail divided itself into two legs; the man's legs entwine themselves into a tail; the body of tho serpent put lorth arms; the arms of the man shrank into his body. The serpent stool up a man and spoke; the mau sank down a serpent and glided hissing away.” Is not this something like the transformation that would necessarily take place in Mr. Chase to bo ome the head ol the Copperhead Democracy of the country? Both candidates were sciciiadcd last night, and the great*--tenth usi asm pn * vailed, reminding one id the lnylor mid Fillmore campaign in 1.848. Gram made his maiden speech, and was much embarrassed at Ins novel position. What he said, however, was b> the point, as you have doubtless seen. I lie lion. Mr. Dike of Maine, in introduciin Mr. Colfax, said; “The Convention took good care to lvllett the popular will in t.lu> selection of Ulysses S. Grant for the first place, and they took equally good care to select for the second place upon that suc cessful ticket a gentleman whose character, public mid private, whose long and well known services and devotion to principle afford sufficient guarantees that ie:Ta/'/cc no person shall Mr ike down the firs to secure a traitorous administration /” this lvlercnce lo the bill id iiurrison, Taylor and Lincoln was received with trcinet.ilous applause. I lie siih impeachment Committee has been engaged now for a week, in an off'oit to ascertain whether there is any real fouti daliou for the numerous rumors afloat as to the bribery of Senators in connection with the trial ot Andrew Johnson. No testimony has yet been made public, but it is under stood that some important evidence bearing upon the subject has been obtained. The publication of what purports to he testimony iu the Copperhead papers, does not come from the Committee, but from witnesses opposed to impeachment, and consequently is not reliable. The nomination of Grant, it is believed, will compel the Democrats to take up either Hancock nr Chief Justice Chase. The strengtfi of the Republican ticket is con ceded, and a Copperhead Democrat, in opposition,would stand uo chance for success at all. With either of the persons named, the lending Democratic politicians hero believe they could make the contest a close one. But the Democratic managers are liken certain French family; they never learn or forget anything, for if they did why throw away such an opportunity as they bad in 1.8(31? they will not have another such a chance to regain power during tho present generation. It is hoped and believed that tlie next administration will make a clean sweep of departmental officials in Washington. At least ono third of tho employees aro hostile to tho Government—some of them openly so. Whole families of this class are pen sioned upon the Government, to tho exclu sion of those who suffered by taking the Union side in tlie late war. Opinion is dividod as to what will be the result of a vote upon the remaining Articles of Impeachment, on the 26th. But few Republicans feel sanguine of success, or certain of anything, indeed, since the Into treachery. There is some satisfaction and consolation, however, in the fact that the delinquents are politically dead and shorn of their format* strength. They can never more harm the party. The Chicago Con volition left them no room for a middle course and the dice. Capital. Baron Holstein says ho does not think be was killed in a duel near Brussels, re cently. If he was, it was without his knowledge. Mr. Joint 11, Slioenbergor, of Pittsburg, has subscribed £IOO,OOO toward rebuilding Trinity Church, in, that city. The rongre. gation will add $60,000. M.
