The Liberal Platform.
Tb« following ar» tat, reiMutiona in full
adcp’.ed by tba Liberal Republican National
ConrentionSt Cincinnati in May, and endora-
ad by the Demooratlc Con Tent ion in July;
We, tbe Liberal Republican* of the United
Statea, in National Cjnventiou aeeembled at
Cincinnati, proclaimed the foll< wing principle*
aa e.eential to a juat government:
Firat—We recognize tbe equality of all men
before tbe law, and bold that it ia the duty of
the government, in Its dealiuga with the people,
to mete out equal and exact juatice to all; of
whatever nativity, race, color, perauaaion, re-
ligioua or political.
Second—We pledge onraelve* to maintain
tbe union of tbeae State*, emancipation and
anfranebiaement, and to oppoae any reopening
ef the question* fettled by the Thirteenth,
Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendment* of the
•onatitution,
Third—We demand tbelmmediate and abao-
late removal of all diaabillitie* imputed on ac
count of the rebellion, which waa finally tub
dued teven yeara ago, believing that universal
amneaty will result in tbe complete pacification
efall aeciione of the cotjptry.
Fourth—Local self-government, with impar
tial suffrage, will guard the right* of all citizens
more securely than any centralized power. The
puMife welfare requires the supremacy of tbe
eivil over tin military authority, and tbe fiee
dom of person* under the protection of the ha
tea* corpus. We demand for the individual
the largest liberty consistent with public order
for the State’* self-govornment, and for the
nation a returr to. the methods of peace and
tbe eorstitutional limitations of power.
Fifth—The civil sorvice of tbe government
las become a mere instrument of partisan
tyranny and personal ambition, and an object
ef selfish greed. It is a scandal and reproach
•pon our free institutions, and breeds a demor
alization dangerous to the perpetuity ef repub
fioan government. We therefore regard i
thorough reform of the civil service ns one of
the most pressing necessities of the hour; that
bonssty, capacity and fidelity constitute the
enly valid claim* to public employment; that
the offices of the government cease to bo a mat
ter of arbitrary favoritism and pntronago, and
that public station* become agai" posts ofhon-
#r. To this end it is imperatively required that
ao President aball be a candidate for re-clec
Map.
6'xth—We demand a system of fcdornl taxa
tion which shall not unnecessarily interfere
with the industry of the people, and which
aball provide means necessary to pay the ex
penses of the government, economically admin-
fstared, pension*, the interest on tha public
debt, and a moderate reduction, annually, of
the principal thereuf, aVl recognizing that
Share are in our midst honest, but irreconcila
ble differences of opinion with regard to the
respective systems of protection and free trade,
we remit discussion of the subject to the peo
ple in their congressional districts, and to She
decision of Congress thereon, wholly free of
•xaentiv* interference or dictation.
Seventh—The public credit mult be eacredly
maintained, and we denounce repudiation in
every form and guise.
Eight—A speedy return to specie payments
Is demanded alikd by the highest considerations
If commercial morality and honest government.
Ninth—We remember with gratitude the
heroism and sacrifice of the soldiers and sailors
ef the republic, and no act of ours* sl-all ever
detract from their justly earned fame or of the
fall reward of their patriotism.
Tenth—We aro opposed te all further grants
•f lands to railroads rr other corporations.
The public domain should be held sacred to
actual settlers.
Eleventh—Wo bold that it is the duty of the
government, in it* intercourse with foreign na
tions, t*> cultivate the friendship of peace by
treating with ail on fair and equal terms, re
garding it alike dishonorable either to demand
what i* not right or to snbmit to what is wroDg.
Twelfth—For the promotion and success of
these Vital principles, and the support of the
dandidates nominated by this convention, we
invite and cordially welcome the co-operation
•fall patriotic citizens, without regard to pre
vious political a'Hiation.

VINEGAR BITTERS
Vinegar Bitters arc n<* « vile Fancy Drink,
made of Poor Rum, Whiskey, Proof Spirit* and Refui
Liquors, doctored, spiced, and sweetened to p| case .Cl
taste, called Tonics/* “ Appetiser*,” “Restorer*.*
«c.. that lead the tippler on to drunkenness and ruin
but are a true Medicine, made from the native root*
and herb* of California, free from all Alcoholic Stimulant?
They are the Great Blood Purifier and a Life-girin*
Principle, a Perfect Renovator and Invigorator of th«
System, carrying ofT all poisonous matter and restoring
the blood to a healthy condition, enriching it. refreshing
and invigorating both min'd and body. They are easy
of administration, prompt in their action, certain in th«ir
results, safe and reliable in all forms of disease.
No Person can take these Bitters accord
ing to directions, and remain long unwell, provided
their bones are not destroyed by mineral poison oroiher
pieans, and the vital organs wasted beyond the point
of repair.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion* Headache, P*i*
m the Shoulders. Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Bu
siness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Vasts
in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of th#
Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the region*of
the Kidney*, and a hundred otlfcr painful symptom*,
•are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. In these complaint*
it has no equal, and one bottle .will prove a better giuy.
antee of its merits than a lengthy advertisement.
For Female Complaints, in young or oil
married or single, at the dawn of womanhood, or th*
turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided *■
influence that a marked improvement is soon percep
tible. r
For Inflammatory and Chronic flhsit.
mat Ism and Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Bilious
Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the
Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters hare
been most successful. Such Diseases are caused by
Vitiated Blood, wlvch is generally produced by derange
ment of the Digestive Organs.
They are a Gentle Purgative as well ®*
a Tonic, possessing also the peculiar merit of actiut
as a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Iiiflanw
raation of the Liver and Visceral Orgaus, ami in Biiiwss
Diseases.
For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tetter, Salt-
Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Car
buncles, Ring-worms, Scald-Head, Sore Eyes, Ery.
sipeias. Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humor*
and Diseases of the Skin, of wliate/er name or natur*,
are literally dug up and carried out of the system in s
•hurt time by the use of these Bitter*. One bottle is
such cases will convince the most incredulous of tb«r
curative effects.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever toe
And its impurities bursting through the skin in PimpUi,
Eruptions, or Sores; cleause it.when you find it ob
structed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it when it it
foul; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood
pure, and the health of the system will follow.
Grateful thoiisauils proclaim ViNgpAK Bit-
TkRS the most wonderful Iuvigorant that ever sustained
tbe sinking system.
Pin, Tape, and oilier Worms, lurking is
the system of so many thousands, are effectually de
stroyed and removed. Says a distinguished physiol,
ogist: There is scar^ly an individual upon the face of tbs
earth whose body is exempt from the presence of wornu.
It is not upon the healthy elements of the body tbit
worms exist, but upon the diseased humors and slimy
deposits that breed these living monsters of diaiss.
No system of Medicine, no vermifuges, no sntheWm-
itics, will free the system from worms like these Bit
ter*.
Mecnanical Diseases. Persons engaged ia
Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-setter*,
Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, will
be subiect to paralysis of the Bowels. To guard against
this take a dose of* Walker's Vinegar Bittsis once
or twice a week, as a Preventive.
Bilious, Remittent, and Intcrmltteat
Pe vers, which are so prevalent in the valleys of our
great rivers throughout the United States, especially
those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Ten
nessee, Cumberland, Arkansas. Red, Colorado, Brain,
Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobil*. Savannah, Ross*
oke, James, and many others, with their vast tributa
ries, throughout our entire country during the Summer
and Autumn, and remarkably so during- season! of
unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied
by extensive derangements of the stomach and liver, and
other abdominal viscera. There are always more or lets
obstructions of the liver, a weakness and irritable stats
of the stomach, and great torpor of the bowels, being
clogged up with vitiated accumulations. In their treat
ment, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence epos
these various organs, is essentially necessary. Them t*
no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. Walkis’s
Vinegar Bitters, as they will speedily remove the
dark-colored viscid matter with which’ the Rowels are
loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions sf
the liver, and generally restoring the healthy function*
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 Eves,
etc., etc. In these, as in-all other constitutional Dis
eases, Wai.kkb*s Vinegar Bitters have shown their
gre^t curative powers in the most obstinate and intract
able cases.
Dr. Waiter’*California Vli»«*»rBltt«r#
act on all these cases in a similar manner. By purifying
the Blood they remove the cause, and by resolving awaf
the effects of the inflammation (the tubercular deposits!
the aflected parts receive health, and a j^rmauent curs
is effected. • _ r . . ..
The properties of Dr. Walker's Vinbga*
Bitters are Aperient. Diaphoretic jma Carminative,
Nutritions, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irri
tant. Sudorific. Alterative, and Auti-Bilious.
The Aperient and mild. Laxative properties of
Dr. Walker s Vinegar 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 bowels,
either - from inflammation, wind, colic, cramps, etc
Their Counter-Irritant influence extends throughout
the system. Their Diuretic properties act on the Kid
neys, 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 biliary ducts,
and are superior to all remedial agents, fof the cure of
Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, etc.
Eortlfy the hotly against disease bv pun-
fying all its fluids with Vinegar Bitters. Ne epi
demic can take hold of a system thus forearmed. Tns
liver, the stomach, the bowels, the kidneys, and tM
nerves are rendered disease-proof by this great tnnj*
orant. • .
Directions.—Take of the Bitters on going to pn
at night from a half to one and one-half wine-glasutu**-
Eat good nourishing food, such as beef steak,
chop, venison, ftiast beef, and vegetables, and tas
out-door exercise. They are composed of purely vegut*
able ingredients, and contain no spirit.
