National dcpublican Atnittst'A . t>,\. SATURDAY MORNING M»y 3". I*** For PBESIDENT Or tub United States: IM SSIS K. «UNT, FOR VICK PRESIDENT: StlllYLEftl COLFAY, OF INDIANA. iiKPinu(.%K ri ATroirn. The National IlrpoMicnn parly of the United SUUs, A&aerabled In National Convention, in the city of Chi cago, on the *2tkh day of May, lHhs, make the following Declaration of Principles : Ist- We congratulate the country on the assured sue* ceae of the reconstruction policy of Congress, a* evinced by the adoption, in a majority of the States lately in rebellion, of Constitutions securing equal civil and political rights to all, and regard it as the duty of the Ctovcrnmeot to sustain those institutions, ami to prevent the people of such States from being remitted to a state of anarchy. *Jd. The guarantee, by Congress, of equal suffrage to all loyal men in the South was demanded by every con sideration of public safety, of gratitude and of justice, amt must bo maintained, while the question of suffrage In all the loyal States properly belongs to the people of those States. 3d. We deiioume all forms of repudiation as a na tional crime, and the national honor requires the pay ment of the public indebtedness, in the c utmost good faith, to all creditors, at home ami 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 ihe nation that taxation should be equalised ami reduced ns rapidly as the na tional faith will pennit. sth, The national debt, contracted, as it lias been, for the preservation of the Union for all time to come, should be extended over a fair period for redemption, ami it is the duty of Congress to reduce the rate of in terest thereon, whenever it can honestly be done. tith. That the best policy to diminish onr burden of debt is to ao improve our credit that capitalists will seek to loan us money at lower rates of interest thau we now pay, ami 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 shamefully nursed and fostered by Andrew Johnson call loudly for ridisal re form. Bth. We profoundly deplore the untimely ami tragic death of Abraham Lincoln, and regret the accession of Andrew Johnson to the Presidency, who has acted treacherously to the people who elected him ami the cause he was pledged to sup|n>rt ; has usurped high legislative and judicial functions; has refused to exe cute the laws; lias used his high office to induce other officers to ignore and violate the laws; lias employed his executive powers to render insecure the property, peace, liberty and life of the citixen; has abused the jmrtbning power; 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 the States lately iu re bellion; has perverted the public patronage into an engine of wholesale corruption; and has been justly impeached for high crimes atid misdemeanors, aud properly pronounced guilty thereof by the vote of thirty five Senators. ftth. 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 ixed by the law of nations, and at war with our national honor and independence. Naturalised citizens are.cnti tied to be piotected in all their rights of citir.euship as though they were natural born, and no citizen of the United States, native or naturalized, must be liable to arrest and imprisonment, by any foreign power, for* acts done, or words spoken, in this country, ami 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 the late war, there were none entitled to more especial honor than the brave soldiers and seamen, who endured the hardships of the campaign and cruise, and 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 be 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. 1 lilt. 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 tin* oppressed of all nations, .should be fostered and encour aged by a liberal and just policy. l*2tli. This Convention d* i t n*. it. sympathy w ith all the oppressed people which are struggling for their rights. OUR POSTAL SYSTEM. An interest I ttfg debate occurred in the House of Ktqirescntalives, a few day since, on tile comparative merits of I’ost Office and Express Companies as common car riers. The agent of the Internal Heroine De partment received a large package of stamps hy mail, and I icing subsequently directed to return them, did so through the same channel, but, nevertheless, the package was lost. The department claims that the agent should lose the amount Qir having intrusted the package to the mails instead of the express. The same position was assumed in de bate. It was claimed that the Government official should have ignored the Govern ment mails as not trustworthy, and em ployed private enterprise. What a com mentary upon our postal system ! The stamps were at all times Government property, and being intrusted to the mails, were stolen by Government agents, and yet. the Government proposes making imjivid ual citizens responsible. * THE SOUTHERN STATES. We entirely agree with the New York Times, that “it is quite time these States were restored to their ‘practical relations’ to the Government of the Union,’’ and, now that impeachment is out of the way, we trust Congress will take up the Consti tutions adopted by several of the Southern States, and, if satisfied with them, proceed nt mux to admit those States into the Union. The States must he restored. The contest of two year..' duration, as to menus, must now yield to the attainment of the end. Representatives arc wanted in Con gress familiar w ith the wants and necessi tics ol the Bouth, and capable of advising such action as we require. Our industry languishes: capital holds itself aloof from our borders; our labor is disorganized, and all the national legislation which has any bearing upon our interests and our wants has to be enacted by men from the North alone, who are, from necessity, without that intimate knowledge of our affairs w hich is essential to just and useful action. Kepreaeutittivcii of the Southern States and the Southern people are imperatively need ed in Congress. * VOICE OE THE PEOPLE. Our exchanges collie to us with a full endorsement of the Republican Ticket and i’latforni, the latter being universally recog nized as a full, fair, mid comprehensive statement ol the principles of the party. Although the. designation of Gen. Grant for President had long ago practically been made, its reiteration by the delegates Irom all the Btates and Territories has stirred up enthusiasm, and developed con fidence to a degree such as onr political annals have not before recorded. The supporters of the other .candidates for Vice President accept Mr. Com ax, not formally hut w ith hearty good will. Both the can didates and the platform are calculated to consolidate all the electors who have not made up their minds to cast their lot with the disuniotiists and repudintors. They mollify asperities; they remove antagon isms; they bring cheer and confidence, and readiness to work for the t miso. TIIE GOVERNOR ELECT. The pony whining of sore headed Opposition men to the contrary notwith standing, Governor Btixoci will enter upon his important duties with an eye single to the welfare of his adopted State, in the prosperity ot which no miui within its landers cherishes a deeper interest Governor Bt i.i.ock w ill begin his guber natorial career with no “enemies to punish." Gifted with tine ndminihtrativc ability, a clear perception of men and measures, and indomitable energy, he will prove no laggard in the work of making Georgia, indeed and in truth, the “Empire State of the South.” He lifts clearly ex pressed his views upon the great questions of popular education, the manufacturing in terests, and internal improvements and those who have witnessed his enterprise, as u private citizen, during his ten years’ resi dence among us, need no assurance that his ofiieial influence will he exerted in behalf of every movement calculated to secure the comiuerciid prosperity and general welfare of the people. * 1 lon. Fostkk Hlodoktt, With what pertinacity Union men are hunted down by Copperheads and Rebels, is evidenced by the arrest of lion. Foster Blodgett, in Chicago, on a charge of mobbing a man named Crangle, in 1860. The fact ot the case is, that Mr. Blodgett, as Mayor of Augusta, interceded for the man’s life, and thereby incurred the displeasure of the community.- -American Union. This fact, as stated by our Macon cotemporary, is known not only to our “respectable” citizens, but also to Kanso Wright. * Funny, Cttslos monun, the immaculate of the Journal <f Messenger (who don't go to operas and blushes at the hare mention of the Black Crook), is regaling its “re spectable” readers with the publication ol love letters from a white woman to a “big buck nigger.” True, <> Athenian. “Our policy is aggressive,” says the Journal it- Messenger. ’1 hat’s so—ami any Union man who has lived or travelled, within the past twenty years, in the South (cursed by the presence of such sprigs of chivalry as the ,/. it M. F. R. G.), will bear witness to the truth of that remark. » IVA SUING TO NRI MO RS. Colfax is radiant ami joyous, anil males no secret of his satisfaction nt Ihe result. Grant takes his nomination quietly, and is apparently the coolest man in Wash ington. Henderson, Fowler, and Ward refuse to tell what they did with Ihe money they drew out ol the hank. It was used, as they say, tor purposes wholly foreign to the inquiry on foot, and claim that it is no business of the ('ommittee’s. I lu re is some excitement ovn the state ment that Mr. Stevens will submit three new articles to the Managers, and if not accepted, will lake them before the House. He is confident he can frame one or two i-rsii-b-.i certain to convict. The proba bilities arc that tin* Ib.-i .. will adopt hi \ iews. The Mima 'ors maintain tin- strictest .silence as t . wlinl occurs in tin it eoiumittee room, and the re polls that have been alloat in Iteuioir.l lie new.,papers at. imHociid iu the White House, and colored, of com e, to suit lilt: I’resideut’s side ol the case. It is hut lair to make this fact known, ami that the eoniitry may know that only one side of the ease is published. The investigations ol the Managers have established beyond the possibility of doubt that a strong anti impeachment ■ ring 'was lorin. and, and that they began '.heir intrigues on tile first day ol the trial. Ferry Fuller, S. S. fox, Samuel Ward, .1. T. Leggett, id Kansas, and two or three other persons were examined Friday. Mr. Francis E. Spinner, the Hon. Tom Ewing, and 001. John Henderson, were in attendance at the I'ipitnl, for the purpose of examination. Fuller was questioned concerning the draw ing and depositing of large sums of money which he did not account for altogether to the satisfaction of the Managers. PERSONAL ITEMS. Miss Redden, Ihe American mute poetess is at Sorrento, engaged to marry an English artist. Michelet has sold Ihe copyright ol his “History ol France” for live years, ami got $31,000 in gold for it. The rumor is that Miss Mary Foote do dines to marry Senator Henderson since he voted against impeachment. Mr. Ross, the Kansas Senator, was lineman ol Ihe Milwaukee .'enlincl iu 1856, ami in that year emigrated to Kansas. Brevet Major General W. IJ. llazeu, Colonel 38th IJ. 8. fnlautry, on lie- 30th nil. assumed command of Fort Crai>, New Mexico. The Queen has graciously ordered Angus McPherson to translate her Imok into Gaelic, and it lias also been done into Welsh. Bunsen, whose memoirs have lately been compiled and published bv hi t widow, was formerly the tutor and travelling companion of Win. B. Antin'. The King ol Ihe French says he was not born with warlike propensities, and that it was a sense of duty which prompted him to command the troops in Italy, Hi, Majesty is too modest. Ex-Governor l’ierpon!, of Virginia, ban left Richmond, which he has made his resi dence since Ihe t loso of the war, in conse quence of hit official duties, and now re turns to his old Innne in Fainnounl, Wes! Virginia. Adelina Patti has not yyit entered into the bonds cd matrimony, and whether or riotshe will marry the Marquis de Caux remains a mystery unsolved. Patti p.:re, in a note to the London Post, denies the rumor of the Paris Figaro, but does not enlighten tin as to the future. it is rumored that Queen Victoria will make Mr. D’lsrcali a Knight of the Garter, ft distinction usually conferred upon mem bers of royal families and the higher no bility. Mr. Pitt was the only other cimiimmcr who was offered this honor, and he, greatly to his sovereign's disappointment, declined to accept it. A writer in a late magazine tolls a story which ho had from the late Major Noah, to the effect that when James Gordon Bennett first applied for work at the office of tho old Courier if Enquirer, Ito was in such distress that the kind hearted Noah first gave him a quarter of a dollar to got a dinner with beforo bogining to talk with him about bis future occupation. After Mr. Bennett bad satisfied bis hunger, Ito ltiatlo a bargain with Major Noalr, and went to work ; his duties included sweeping out tlio office in the morning, in addition to his more litera ry avocations. There are few men in bis tory who, from such small beginnings have risen to such wealth and power ns Mr. Bennett. • AGRICULTURAL HIIEVITIRS. Mrs. Ware, near Norfolk, Va., derived, lust year, SIO,(UK) from a pear orchard of thirty acres. Eighteen acres of apples netted $3,000. Hie Tctolaky is anew apple from Russia; is sour, of line quajtly, hardy, grows nearer the North polo than nny other, and blossoms and ripens within sfxly days. banners of Minnesota tire sowing a larger area of laud to wheat this year than ever before. Minneapolis, Minn., expects to ship 200,000 barrels of Hour this year. Thc> Department of Agriculture, in its monthly report, says iu the neighborhood of Roquefort, France, fight million pounds of cheese are made aunuallv from the milk of about -100,000 sheep. Wool growers are still nimble to decide whether it is best to wash their wool. In Central Illinois the buyers are so unjust that the sheep men have built a Factory, and they sell cloth instead of wool. Tito fanners iu-tli West are said to lie beginning to plant fore.-l trees on their prairie lands as a protection for their dwell ings against the cold northern blasts ol wittier. The enormous gq»in crops in California in the Inst two years have lilted llto pockets ol farmers, and they are improving their lauds extensively. The next crop of wheat in the Slate, il is believed, will not fall short of 30,000,000 bushels. The Canadians have more wheat than they can use. Coal oil is so cheap that tliev have closed tho wells. .Silver money is a drug, and yet times never were so hard, for imn.igrants will not come in, and old settlers are leaving. When young folks lire in a similar condition, the only remedy is to get married. Wheat. —Tho Columbia (Tcnn.) Kcrahl hears of a farmer near Spring Hill who has engaged his forthcoming crop of wheat, to ho delivered at Smith’s Station, at $2.50 per bushel. On the contrary, the editor hears ol many others who are anxious to engage theirs at sl, bat can find no bidders. Rust in Wheat. —A writer in the Balti more Rural Gentleman states that ho once sowed wood ashes on a part of his wheat crop at the rate of eight bushels to the acre, when the wheat was beginning to joint— weather wet. 'The part of the field thus sowed escaped the rust, and the remainder was nearly destroyed by it. THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. Alabama James T. B. Stowe. Arkansas .E. F. ltice.

Why not insist that they, too, shall have a fair show iii Demo cratic Conventions ? We like Gen.

It is currently urged in the Democratic organs (wisely, we judge) that the party must shed its old skill and stand lorlh progressive, illumined, and ready to keep abreast with the times, unless it is roll tent to remain forever out ol power, Let il "conquer its prejudices,” then, and send us at least a graft from one ot its “first luHiiln on an African stock, as a represen tative ol renovated Georgia or South Caro lina in Ihe approaching Sanhedrim.
