The Weekly Democrat. THURSDAY, AUGUST 8, 1872. Tbe Liberal Platform. Til* following nr* tna rerolutlont In fall adopted by tho Liborol Republican Rational Convention at Cincinnati in May, and endors ed by the Demooratie Convention in Jolj: We, tbe Liberal Republican* of the United Btatea, in National Convention assembled.at Cincinnati, proclaimed tbe following principles aa essential to a just government! First—We recognise tbe equality of ail men before the law, and bold that it is tbe duty of tbe government, in its dealings with tbe people, to mete oat «qaal and eiact justice to all; of whatever nativity, raee, color, persuasion, re ligions or political. Sacond—Wa pladga ourselvee to maintain the union of these States, emancipation and anfranebisemant, and to oppose any reopening of tbo questions settled by tbe Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments of the constitution, Third—We demand tbe immediate and abso late removal of all disabilities imposed on ac count of the rebellion, which was finally sub 'dued seven years agb, believing that universal amnesty will result in tbe complete pacification .fall sections of the country. Fourth—Local self-government, with impar tial suffrage, will guard the rights of all citizens more securely than any centralized power. The •ffnMi. welfare requires the supremacy of tbe civil over tha military authority, and the fiee dom of persons under tbe protection of the ha beas corpus. We lemand for the individual the largest liberty consistent with pnblic order for the State's self-government, and for the nation a rcturr to the methods of peace and the constitutional limitations of power. Fifth—The civil service of the government bas become a mero instrument of partisan tyranny and personal ambition, and an object ef selfish greed. It is a scandal and reproach apon our free Institutions, and breeds a demor alization dangerous to tbe perpetuity ef repub liean government. We * therefore regard i thorough reform of the civil service as one of the most pressing necessities of the hour; that honesty, capacity and fidelity constitute the anly valid alaims to public employment; that the offices of the government cease to be a mat ter of arbitrary favoritism and patronage, and that public stations become again posts of hon or. Tp this end it is imperatively required that >o President shall be a candidate for re-elec tion. Sixth—We demand a system of federal taxa tion whiclr shall not unnecessarily interfere with the industry of the people, and whiQh shall provide means necessary to pay the ex- J lenses of tbe government, economically admin - stored, pensions, the interest on the public debt, aDd a moderate reduction, annually, of the principal thereof, and recognizing that there are in oar midst honest, bat irreconcila ble differences of opinion with regard to tbe respective systems of protection and free trade, we remit discussion of the subject to the peo ple in their congressional districts, aad to the decision of Congress thereon, wholly free of executive intdVference or dictation. Seventh—Tbe pnblic credit must be sacredly maintained, and wa denounce repudiation in •tery form and guiso. Eight—A speedy return to specie payments Is demanded alikd by the highest considerations of commercial morality and honest government. .Ninth—We remember with gratitude tbe heroism and sacrifice of tbe soldiers and sailora af the republic, and no act of ours aball ever detract from thoir justly earned fame or of the full reward of their patriotism. Tenth—We are opposed to, all farther grants af lands to railroads or other corporations. The public domain should be held sacred to actual settlers. Eleventh—We bold tKat it la tbe duty of tbe government, in its interoonrse with foreign na tions, to cultivate the friendship of peace by # trpating with all on fair and equal terms, re garding it alike dishonorable either to demand what is not right or to submit to what is wrong. Twelfth—For the promotion and success of these vital principles, and the snppert of the dandidates nominated by this convention, we invite and cordially welcome the cooperation afall patriotic citizens, without j-egard to pre vious political affiliation.

( Cleanse the Vitiated Bleed whenever you Bad its imparities bursting through the skin in Pimplo, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it ob structed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it when its foul; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the bind pure, and the health of the system will follow. Grateffcl thousands proclaim Vincas Bit ters th« most wonderful Invigorant that ever sustained the sinking system. Pin, Taps, uid other Worms, lurking is the system of so many thousands, are effectually de stroyed and removed. Says a distinguished pbnioU •gist: There is scarcely an individual upon the her of the earth whose body is exempt from the presence of worms. It is not vpon the healthy elements of the body that %orms exist, but upon the diseased humors and ilitny deposits that breed these living monsters of diseau. No system of Medicine, no vermifuges, no anthelmii- itics, will free the system from worms like these Bit ters. . Meenanlcal Diseases. Persons engaged is Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and Miners, ss they advance in life, will be subject to paralvsis of the Bowels. To guard against this take a dose of Walker's Vinegar Bitters once or twice a week, as a Preventive. Bilious* Remittent* and Intermittent Fevers* which are so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout "lhe United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Ten nessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, Red, Colorado, Bmet, Rio Grands, Pearl, Alabarqp, Mobile. Savannah, Roan oke, James, and many others, with their vast tributa ries, throughout our entire country during the Summit and Autumn, and remarkably so during seasons tt unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensive derangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. There are always more or lew obstructions of the liver, a weakness and irritable state of tbe stomach, and great torpor of the bowels, being clogged up with vitiated accumulations. In their treat ment, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence upoe these various organs, is essentially necessary. There » •o cathartic for the purpose equal to Dn. J. WaucmI Vinkgak Bitters, as they will speedily remove tha dark-colored viscid matter with which the bowels art loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs. Scrofula* or King’s Evil, White Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goiter, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Af fections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sore Eyes, etc., etc. In these, as in ail other constitutional Dis~ easee, Walker’s Vinegar Bitters have shown their great curative powers in the most obstinate and intract* able cases. Dr. Walker*! California Vinegar Bit tore act on all these cases in a similar manner. By purifying the Blood they remove the cause, and by resolving away the effects of the inflammation (the tubercular deposits) the affected parts receive health, and a permanent curs is effected. . .. The properties of Dr. Walker’s Vinegar Bitters are Aperient. Diaphoretic and Carminative* Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irri tant, Sudorific. Alterative, and Anti-Bilious. The Aperient and mild Laxative properties of Dr. Walker’s Vinrcae Bitters are the best safe guard in all cases of eruptions and malignant fevers, their balsamic, healing, and soothing properties protect the humors of the fauces. Their Sedative properties allay pain in the nervous system, stomach, and bowili, either from inflammation, wind, colic, cramps, etc Their Counter-Irritant-influence extends throughout the system. Their Diuretic properties act on the Kid* aeys, correcting and regulating the flow of urine. Their Anti-Bilious properties stimulate the liver, in the secre tion of bile, and its discharges through the binary ducts, and are superior to all remedial agents, for the cure of Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, etc. Fortify tlie body agatmt disease by puri fying all its fluids with Vinegar Bitters. No epi demic can take hold of a system thus forearmed. The liver, the stomach, the bowels, the kidneys, and the nerves are rendered disease-proof by this great iavig* orant.
