The Xatiunal Republican party of the United Slates, iiHsemblcd in National Convention, in the city of Chi cago, on the 20th day of May, 1868, make the following Declaration of Principles : Ist. We congratulate the country on the assured suc cess of the reconstruction policy of Congress, as 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 Government to sustain 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 Uli loyal men In the South was demanded by every con sideration of public safety, of gratitude and of justice, and nw( be maintained, while the question of suffrage in all the loyal States properly belongs to the people of those States. 3d. Wc 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 the nation that taxation should be equalized and reduced as rapidly as the na tional faith will permit. sth. 'Hie national debt, contracted, as it has been, for ♦be preservation of the Union for all 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 diminish our burden of debt is to so improve our credit, that capitalists will seek to loan ns money at lower rates Gs 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. 'Hie Government of the United States should be administered with the strictest economy, and the cor ruptions which Lave been so shamefully nursed and fostered by Andrew Johnson call loudly for radical re form. Bth. Wc profoundly deplore the untimely and 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 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 ami violate the laws; has employed hfs executive powers to render insopure the property, peace, liberty and life of the citizen: lias abused the pardoning power; Las denounced the National Legisla ture as unconstitntfonal; has persistently and corruptly resisted, by every measure in his power, every proper attempt at the reconstruction of the Stales lately in re bellion; Las perverted the public patronage into an engine of wholesale corruption; and has bt-en j»i-*|y impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and properly prononneed guilty thereof by the vote of thirty live Senators. 9th. The doctrine of Great P.rUaiu and oilier European powers, that because a man is once a subject, he. i> 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 arc enti tled to be protected In all their rights of citizenship as though they were natural born, and no citizen < I tbe United States, native or naturalized, must be liable to arrest and imprinonnieut, by any foreign power, for acts done, or words spoken, in this country, an 1 if so arrested and imprisoned, it is the duty of the Government to Interfere in Ins behalf. 10th. Os all who were faithful in the trials of the late war, thme were none entitled to more especial honor than the brave soldiers and seamen, who endured the hardships of tbe campaign and cruise, and Imperilled their lives in the service of the tountry. Tbe bounties and pensions provided by law for these brave defenders of the nation are obliagtlons never to be forgotten. The widows and orphans of the gallant dead are (he wards of the people, a sacred legacy bequeathed to the nation’s protecting care. 11th. Foreign immigration, which in the past lias added so much to the ivealth, development of resources, and increase of power of this nation, the asylum of the oppressed of all 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 fur their rig SEND US THE SEWS. Our fri nds in a l the county towns of the State will oblig ■ us by sending us, at as early a day as possible, after th- election, I tbe vote in their respective counties. Don’t FORGET THIS. KNOCKING DOWN A MAN OF STIIA IF. The Ku-Klux editin'is d breeder of mis chief. He is ever advising the people and officials to do that which is flagrantly wrong. In his paper of j estonlay he his a characteristically meaqarticle, proving that the Governor can not establish election precincts. Well, who he could c Not Governor Bullock. Not the Republican party. He has simply ordered that two additional voting boxes shall be opened at each county seat of the State. This order was necessary, because there are nearly one hundred'thousand more voters in the State at present than there were before the war, and no increase of .voting places. Gover nor Bullock makes now new precincts, and the Ku-Klux editor knows it. The editor urges the managers of the disregard the Proclamation, and says vote of the State will not be counted it the Governor’s mandate is obey ed. Nonsense ! IJ'e tell the managers if they d«> not open these extra boxes, so as to allow all to vote. Congress is certain no! to count the vote of Georgia *•» Geaeral Kilpatrick said, iu a .pvc.-h in New York, die other day, that it would be us impossible lor the Democrats to make ■rains under existing circutnslaaces as it would be lor Horatio Seymour U) et a dozen rotten eggs under a tin roomier and expect to hatch Shanghai chii’ken REGISTUA TION-EXTIIA QdiDINARY RECOMMEND A TION. It is a little singular that the Augusta Democracy, after having kept a lobbyist for months around the purlieus of the Statu eapit-1, and after having, by money or otherwise, succeeded in passing through the Legislature, and over the veto of the Governor, a bill ordering a municipal elec tion in this city on their own terms, should now be dissatisfied with the requirements of their own handiwork. After months of cogitation as to how they could best prac tically disfranchise nnd swindle the poor man out of his right to vdte, they now wake up to find that they have really gotten themselves into a fix. And this is their fix : The oath to be taken by every applicant for a certificate of registration ■■'•quire- him to swear positively that he has “paid all tarts'' that it “has been in his power” to pay, according to the ordi nances of the city. Now, what delinquent property holder :>;■ business man can raise bis hand, or place it on the Holy Bible, ami call on his Maker to witness that <d no time since his fa res were due the city has it “been in his power" lo pay said tu.res. I hat is the oath, and wc don’t believe there is a delinquent tax payer in Augusta that can conscientiously take it. However, there are men in Augusta pos se-sing the moral turpitude to unblush ing! y advis' the people to walk right up before the Commissioners and -wallow the oath, whether they have paid their taxes or not. The Democratic organ,' of Sunday morning, elaborately argued the question on that basis, and astonished many Demo crats, a- well as Republicans, by the laxity of its ethics. We are glad to believe the article was not penned by the regular editor of that paper. We think we recog. niz.e the ear marks. We have seen those cars before. They are somewhat noted ears about Augusta. We remember, if the writer in the Democratic organ does not, that it was at his instance, and that of other equally un scrupulous partizans, that a general un derstanding was had among the Democrats of the city that no more taxes would be paid until the Legislature ordered an election. First, this miserable creature advises the people to refuse to pay their taxes; they do refuse. Nbw, as party necessities demand, he advises tlicm to sv.i'.ir to a lie rather than not. register. True, he docs not say so in so many words; but that is the plain English of his monstrous teachings. This registration oath applies; to Repub licans as well as Democrats, and wc advise every Republican in arrears not to attempt to register until they have settled with Dr. Garvin, Wc have too much confi dence in the integrity of Democrats in this community for a moment to believe that they will blacken their souls with perjury at the bidding of the writer iu the Demo cratic organ of Sunday. j|ommunir«tions. ROILING DOWN. Mr. Editor: I takes off my hat, anil scratches my head to you, and axes you dese questions, wich 1 hopes you will answer right away ; 1! the Unitered States was to be biled down to the perlitical size ot the State of Georgi'i, and the Stalo of Georgie biled down to the perlitical status of Richmond kounty, and Richmond bounty biled down to the city of Augustay, and the city of Augllstay hiled down to Pinch G—, and Pinch G— Idled down lo my Lot of forty by oiifl hundred and twenty-five feet, would i 1 1, Kinky-Head Sambo, be the President of the Unitered States? You need not snicker at dis nigger ; he is a member of Mars Bob’s Denim ratio Chib, and has been t ache ' some Democratic logic, and been thoroughly initialed in the liighfaluting phisnraclcs of the party. Say yes! Now, I wants to ax you unoder question, and you must say yes main. If Mr. See more is electerated President of desc Unitered States, can I lit the Republican to udvoc at • the moval of the Capital of the . U. S. t i my Lot in Pinch G—? I knows de Irish and de Kaauanites, and <! • Fact i'*. folks will offer bhu a lot tre-e gratis fur nothing, if he will go there; hue mine is near the Grave Yard, and would be ex tremely kor.venicnt. By the way, kin you explauorate why the freight on rope to Angusiay has been reduced? Yours, till the ’lection, Sam no. SlOl'-THINK. Mr. Editor : — There is in the result of the !»te State elections a deep toned voice which calls upon us to stop and think. The people of four great States have, after a most perfect and very heated canvass, spoken. As during the war, so to-day, they declare themselves utterly opposed to factious tqiposition to the General Government. They desire to see the Union restored without losing the fruits of the late unhappy war. Their voice, however, is for peace. They look at this question oi Southern reconstruc tion or restoration as we viewed it in 1665, just after we had surrendered. Then all de clared perfect acquiesence in every demand of the Government against which wc had arrayed ourselves; ami the promises which, by public resolves, we then made would have been kept inviolable, had not the ma jority of the people (ever unsuspecting) allowed theiuscives to be led off alter strange gods by the very men who contributed largely to the bringing about of our present embarrassing circumstances. Toombs and lesser lights precipitated tbe war, secured the fat offices, caused the sacri fice of thousands of noble men, and slunk awav in the rear to make war on the very Government they were anxious to set up. Tbe close of the war found them in foreign climes, bravely abandoning the people whom their pernicious counsels ruined. The Government adopted a magnanimous policy, and these men returned, affecting to he loyal, and desiring nothing more anxious ly than to be permitted to earn their liveli hood iu a quiet way, but true to their natures no sooner were they foot loose than they oegan their mischievous machina tions. To sum up all their acts in a G w words : They secured the rejection of the terms offered by President Johnson, and arrayed numbers of people against the Congressional plan, which they were, at first, not only willing but glad tn accept. They have poisoned t'.ie atmosphere of religious, social, mercantile, literary and political circles. They have made fanatics aye, more, mur derers I- out of the more thoughtless of their followers, by denouncing as corrupt, illiterate and dishonest, men whom they know to be perfe. t t,s compared to them selves. They have ruined the people, but I de.lie to damn them. Men of Georgia, arouse ye I Out upon these traduccrs and hypocrites ; cut loose from them as you would flee a falling house. Dissention and War have impoverished us. Good feeling, kindly relations and Peace are necessary to our future prosperity. Come out ye men who hate war and love peace ; come out ye men who desire to see liberty perpetuated, and march with us under the broad banner of Grant and Colfax. Come now ! Your conscience, your good common sense, tells you it is your duty to do -so. Come, come ! and January, 1870, Will see Georgia clad in new garments, aud strong ns a young lion. More anon. Augusta, Ga., Oct. 26, 18G8. S. W. WHAT’S THE USEI Mu. Editor—Though the canvass is not ended, every one knows the battle is won. Nobody now doubts that Grant will be elected, and then reflected in 1872. This being so, why not cease the strife, let all our foolish asperities go, and come together as one man lor the counnou good? 1 do not doubt that General Grant will be generous— even magnanimous— to u of the fallen South, but he will certainly s c to it that every man, woman and child shall I’e amply protected against Kti Klux ami all other vio lators of law, even if it becomes necessary that every one of them shall perish out of the earth. He meant Peace, and he will have it. The wicked leaders of th , SeymOuritcs, or what-you-, all-’enrs, always knew tin re was no hope of electing tbe ticket, and now, that everybody sees it plainly, they still keep np the light, in hopes tn carry Georgia, with Kentucky and Maryland, for rebellion and a new war. Voters of Georgia, will you be longer misled ? General Grant, chivalrous ami magnanimous as he is, is still only human. If Georgia be Induced, against her better judgment, to vote against him, and that, 100, when her vote amounts to nothing, It ■ will very naturally think—-as any other man would—“ These Georgians are still re bellious ; they don’t know yet that the Con stitution, the Union and the Laws are su preme; we will teach them.” There fore, J say, let us, for our own sake, drag down the rebel bunting and make the election unanimous. By so doing we may hope for better treatment for all of us, and hope also to have some influence in the Government which we are bound to live under for the next eight years. We ought to try to exercise our plain common sense, and no longer follow llill and Toombs to our ruin. If you want to be on the losing side always follow Ben Hill. He was for Fillmore when Fillmore only carried one State. He was for Union when secession was triumphant, and then for secession, loud and loug, when it had been stamped out forever by the ‘“Boys in Bltfb.” Then, Soy mourites, or what-you-call-’ems, if any of you remain, don’t go to the polls ; stay at home, or vote for Grant. It is ridiculous folly to vote for the Democratic ticket, if in deed there is one in the field on election day. The party can’t possibly carry three States out of thirty-seven. Quit your foolish ness 1 Ben Hill has come home disgruntled, “mortified,” because the people of the na tion will not listen to him. I tell you, once fur all, they never will listen to him, and that the unchangeable determination of the American people is—North, South, Fast and West—that this Government shall never be administered by unrepentant rebels, nor by their sympathisers. I would say to the colored voters : Go, every man of you, to the polls; get a Grant ticket from some one you can trust ;be perfectly quiet and peaceable ; carry no arms, engage in no altercations, insult no one, ai d set an example of sobriety, modera t< n cam good conduct to your white brethren, especially of the Democratic per suasion. Be sure to vote for Grant and Collax, aud don’t let anybody fool you into voting for a dead carcass. Go to the polls early, and carry all your friends. Don’t be afraid that people will not employ you if you vote for Grant. That is played out. Not oue county in Georgia could get even her Democrat pledged to it. No matter if you have eaten the foolish fellow’s meat and bread, and drank their mean whiskey and joined their clubs, and worn their badges. All that is over 1 and, on the third day of Novenib'. r you'll stand at the polls, the equals of any man—the superiors even of Kings and Emperors, to cast your ballots, as yon choose for the President of these United States. And I know that Grant is your choice, ns he is the choice of the whole people. He a’, me can give Peace, Security, and Protection ! The Democrats call them selves your best friends, but they arc tbe meti who, a* midnight, disguised, cowardly attack, rob. whip and murder you. The most ignmaut of you know that only Demo crats do these things. You never board of a It q sb'i'- ■ : >ing anything of thi kin-1. Grant ■■•.’” r-t an end to it all. Vote for him, t-very one vi you. It is m ilLog but sheer and extremely silly <'b’ tinney f- the Democrats to pretend longer to cimtitiuo this fight. They say that a cl.augc of the ticket or withdrawal ; of the candidates will disband the party. But the veriest fool among them knows that they i: < st disband or reorganize, that the parly never can and never will dare again go before the American people on their Platform of 18G8-—repudiation of an honest debt incurred to suppress a most flagitious and gigantic rebellion, and over turning reconstructum. Why not now dis band and mako the election unanimous while it can be done with a good grace, and with some hope of influence in the certainly incoming admirvstration ? In any event, however, let them all remember that every outrage perpe t i' 5 in the South against loyal men, whi or black, will be surely punished if it takes a million of “Boys in Blue’’ to do it. Marlborough. General Grant on the Camilla Butch ery.—A gentleman from Niagara county, during a visit to Chicago, not long since, was fortunate enou -h to b ■ there one day when General Grant was also in tbe city, in com pany with Charles Wilson and Andrew Shiiinan, of the Chicago Journal. In the course of the conversation, the matter of the Camilla butchery was alluded to, when Gen. Grant turned to Mr. Wilson and said: “Chutli v. should the people make me Presi dent, you and the people may be assured that all men will bo permitted to speak their honest convictions wherever they may be within the boumlaries of the United States.” When these words were spoken, says the gentleman, the lips of the General closed, as he imagined they might have done iu the Wilderness, when an aid rode up to him and breathlessly announced that Sedgwick’s corps had been annihilated, and received as an answer, “I don't believe it.” [lluifaiu Commercial Advertiser, 21s/. ♦ • I'he New York Commercial Advertiser atys: “‘Democratic ‘strikers' from Pennsyl vania played a very mean trick on the solid men of the Manhattan club.
