;Tiir l?r€*i<lefit:;ii issiitaC THE LIBERAL PLATFORM. r /he following urg tji<? in fall adopted tiv iho Lint-raf Re publican National Convention at Cincinnati in May, arid endorsed by the Democratic Convention hr Jnly: We, the Lilieial Republicans of the United States, in National Con vention assembled at Cincinnati, proclaim the following principles as essential to a just •government : First—VVe recognize the equali ty of ail men before the law, and bold that it is the duty of the gov ernment, in its dealings with the people, to mete out equal and.exact justice to all; of whatever nativity, race, color, persuasion, religious or political. Second —We pledge ourselves to maintain the union of these States, emancipation npd enfranchisement, and to oppose any reopening of the questions settled by the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend ments of the constitution. Third—We 'demand' the imme diate and absolute removal of all disabilities imposed on account of the rebellion, which Was finally subdued seven years ago, believing that universal amnesty will result in the complete pacification of all sections of the country. Fourth—Local self-govei n merit, with impartial suffrage, will guard the rights of all citizens mure se curely than any centralized power. The public welfare requires the su premacy of the civil over tl.e mili tary authority, and the freedom of persons under the protection o( the habeas corpus. We demand for the individual the largest liberty consistent with pubfic order for. the States; self government, and for the nation a return to the methods of peace and the constitutional limi tations of power. Fifth—Thq civil service of the government has become a mere in strument of partisan tyranny and personal ambition, and an object .of selfish greed. It is a scandal and 1 reproach upon our free institutions, and breeds a demoralization dan gerous todhe perpetuityjof republi can government. We therefore regard a thorough reform of the civil service as one of the ,most pressing necessities of the hour; that honesty, capacity -and fidelity 1 ebnstitute the only valid claims to public employment ; that the officer of the government cease to be a matter arbitrary favoritism and patronage, and?that public stations become again posts of honor. To this end it is imperatively required that lio President shall lie a candid" ate for re-election. Sixth—Wo demand a system of iocleval taxation which shall not unnecessarily interfere with (he in dustry of the people, and which shall provide means .necessary to pay the ■ expenses of the government, economically administered', pen sions, the interest on the public * debt, and a moderate ’reduction, an nually, of the principal thereof, and recognizing that there are in our midst honest, but irreconcil able differences of opinion with re gard to the respective systems of protection and free trade,- we remit d|seupsion of the subject to the peo plodu thoir congressional districts, ■and to the decision of Congress . thereon, wholly free of executive interference or dictation. Seventh —The publiq credit must be sacredly maintained, and we de nounce repudiation in every form and guise. Eighth—-A speedy return to spo-. cie payrhents is demanded alike by the highest considei ations of com mercial morality and honest gov ernment. Ninth — We remember with grat itude the heroism and sacrifice of the soldiers and sailors of tire re public, and no act of ours shall ever detract from their justly earned fame or the full reward of their pa triotism. Tenth —Wc are opposed to all further grants of lands to railroads •or other corporations. The public domain should be held sacred to actual settlers. Eleventh —We hold that it is the r duty of the government, in its in tercourse with foreign nations, to cultivate the friendship of peace by treating with all on fair and equal terms, regarding it alike dishonora ble either to demand what is not right or to submit to what is wrong. Twelfth —For the promotion and . success of these vital principles, aud the support of the candidates nominated by this convention, we invite and cordially welcome the co-operation of all patriotic citizens, without regard to previous politi cal affiliation. Movace Greeky s s letter of Atccjdaiice. New York, July 23.— The fol lowing is Mr. letter, ac cepting the Baltimore nomination, in reply to the letter of the com mittee appointed to notify him thereof: New York, July 18, 1872. Gentlemen; Upon mature de liberation, it seems fit that I should give to your letter of the lQtli in stant sqtne further and fuller re sponse than the hasty, unpremedi tated words in which I acknowl edged and accepted your nomina tion at our meeting on the 12th instant. That your Convention saw fit to accord its highest honor to one who had been prominently and pointed ly opposed to your party in the earnest, and sometimes angry con troversies of the last forty years, is essentially noteworthy. That many of yon Liberal Republicans, should present answer candidate for Presi dent, and would more rapidly have united with us in the- support of Adams or Trumbull, Davis or . Brown, is.well known. I owe my • *♦ adoption at Baltimore wholly to fact that I had already been dividual at Cincinnati, and Unit, tives and' frte? c . e,ltratsoD of forCes ar^ with the follow 111 been proved imprncM- 1 salt: Greeley, 1 decided, 8. I am at your yoncur-jj t-i^cinnati nojjjbnatiou/1 and m+mW not. have concurred had von not denmed me upright and capa ble, 1 found m*thi:,.: to .the -hi r*’un til* nee cak‘|lated to inflame vanity*] 01 nourish self-conceit. Rut that your Convention saw fit to reaffirm the Ofneinnati platform is to me a source of the . jirofoundbst 'satisfac tion. That body was constrained to take this'step by flo party neces sity, real or supposed. It might have accepted the candidates of the Liberal Republicans upon grounds entirely its own, or it might have presented them as the first! Whig convention did Harrison and Tyler, without adopting tidy plat form whatever. That it chose to plant itself de J liberately, by a vote nearly unani nious, upon the fullest and clearest enunciation of principles which are at once incontestably Republican and emphatically Democratic, gives trustworthy assurance that anew and more ’auspicious era is dawn ing ©poo our long distracted coun try. Some of the best years and best efforts of uiy life wore devoted to a struggle agnii#t chattel slavery, a struggle none the less earnest and arduous because respect for consti tutional objections constrained tne to act for the most part on the de fensive in .resistance to the diffu sion, rather than in direct efforts for the extinction, of hnmaq bond- age. Throughout most of three years my vision was uncheered, my- exer tions were rare rarely animated by even so much as a hope that I should live to see my country peo pled by froedmen alone..- The af firmance by vour Convention of the Cincinnati platform is a most conclusive'proof that not merely is slavery abolished, but that its spir it, is extinct, that despite the pro tests of a respectable but isolated few, there remains among us no and .no fuu-midabfe interest Winch'regrets tnc overthrow or de sires of human bondage, whether in letter or in spirit. I am thereby justified in my hope and trust that the first century of American, indeuendence will not close befbrai five ,grand ele mental truths on which its rightful ness w .l s ba§ c d by Jefferson and, the Continetal Congress of ”76 will no longcTbc regarded as glittering generalities, but.will jbavajfbeoome the universally accepfed and hon ored foundations of our political fabric, I demand the prompt appli j catign of those principles to our ex isting conaiiion. L !s 0 . Having doue what I could for the cum pi etc emancipation of the blacks, I now iusisl on the full enfrancise inent of all my white countrymen. Let iiblie s.iV tnat'tho ban has just been removed from all but a few hundred elderiy gentlemen to whom eligibility to. office can be of little consequence. My view con templates not the hundreds pro scribed, but the millions who are denied the right to be- ruled and represented by men.. oi tTiqir own tmi’ettcfed chou?e. Proscription were absurd if these did not wish, to elect the very men whom they are forbidden to choose. I have a profound regard for the people of that part of New England wherein,! was bran, in whos£ com mon schools -llwas taught. I rank no people above them in intelli gence, capacity and moral worth; but while they do many things' well, and some admirably, there is one thing they cannot safely or wisely undertake, and- that, is the selection for Slates remote from and unlike their ofrn, Os the persons by whom these Stat&dshall be rep resented in Congress. If they could do this to good purpose, then Republican institutions are unfit and aristocracy the only true polit ical system. Yet, what have, wei recently witnessed ? Z. B. Yancey the unquestioned, .choiqe o,f a large majority oft he pvlsWit. Legislature of North Carolina, hacked by a; majority of the people who voted at its election, refused the seat in the Federal Senate to which ho was chosen, iui.il thd’ whs tIHiS th 'clfhbsC' an other in his place or leave the State unrepresented for years. . The votes of New England thus deprived North Carolina of the Sen ator of her choice, and compelled her to send another in his £tead— another who in our late contest was, like Vance, a rebel and a fight ing rebel, but, had not served in Congress before the war as Vance had, though the latter remained faithful to the Union -till the clos# of his term. I protest against the. disfranchisement of a State, pre sumptively of a number of States, on ground so narrow and and tech nical as this. .The fact that the' same Senate which refused his seat proceeded to remove his disabilities after that seat had been filled by another, only serves to place in a stronger,light,the indignity to North Mo unit, and the arbitrary, capri- j cious tyranny which dictated it. I thank; you, srentlemen, that ray name is'to Ife ciated with yours an a determined effort to render amnesty complete raid universal in spirit as well as in letter. Even defeat in such, a case would leave no stink, while triumph would rafik with tbosO victories which no blood redden, and which evoke no tears but those of grati tude and joy. Gentlemen, your platform, which is also mine, assures me that Dem ocracy is not henceforth to stand for one thing and Republicanism for another ; but these terms arc to if naan in politics, as they have al ways mount ip (j tbe dictionary, sub stantially one and thgjsame''idjiug, namely; eqnM rf^i#^of creed’ov of color, I hail this Us a genuine new: departure from outworn feuds ;md - meaningless contentions in the direction of pro gross and reform.
