The.chiefs of the Radical clans assembled at Chicago on, A^ay the 20th, for the purpose of nominating candidates for President t\qd Vice President, and Issuing a declaration of princi ples. In our last number our readers were in formed that Grant apd Colfax were their nom- necs, and this week we publish their Declaration of Principles. We are glad they met, and still more rejoic ed that they have laid down tlicir platform of principles; for if the Democracy cannot suc ceed against such doctrines as therein set forth, it would be impossible to triumph under any circumstances. The Convention has pledged their party to a radical change of government, and a total disregard, of certain lundumental principles of the Decimation of Independence. A brief examination of the 2d declaration will satisfy any impartial mind of the correctness ol the charge above made. “ 2d. The guarantees, by Congress, of equal suffrage to all loyal men in the South was do inamled by every consideration of public safety, of gratitude and of justice, and must be main tained, while the question of suffrage in all the loyal States properly belongs to the people of those States."

Tench him that if he believes the President, or rather Andrew Johnson, is not guilty, still, for the good of our party of “great moral ideas,” he must vote guilty.— Learn him to believe, Lord, that there is noth ing wrong in this, and in fact lie is licensed to do whatever tends to advance the interests of tlae party of “ igoraj jdeag,” xegaolless pf what (s written in a hook, called the Bible, because, Lord, that book is old, and surely Thou didst not contemplate these times when Thou hadst it written.
