THE DEMOCRATIC PI.iTI'OKK, , r .. r . . ... , - .. * We, the delegates of the Democratic party of the United States iu National Convention aasern bled, do hereby declare the administration of the Federal Government to he in urgent need of immediate Reform; do hereby enjoin upon the nominees ofthis Convention, and of the Demo cratic party in each State, a aealoua effort aud co-operation to this ©nd; and do hereby appeal to oar fellow-citterns of ©very former political connection, to undertake with us this first aud moat pressing prtrtotic duty. For the Democracy of the whole country, we do here reaffirm oar fidth in the permanence of the Federal Union, ©nr devotion to the Constitu tion of the United States with its amendments universally accepted as a final settlement of the controversies that engendered civil war, and do hsre record our steadfast confidence in the per petuity of Republican Self-Government. In absolute acquiescence in the will of tb© ma jority—the vital principle of the republic: in the supremacy of the civil over the military authority; in the total separation of Church and State, for the sake alike of civil and religious freedom; in the equality of all citisens before jnst laws of their own enactment; in the liberty of individ ual conduct, unvexed by smnptuary laws; in the faithful education Of the rising generation, that they may preserve, enjoy, and transmit these best conditions of human happiness and hope, we behold the noblest products of a hundred years of changeful history; but while upholding the bond of our Union and great Charter of these our rights, it behooves a ft*©© people to practise also that sternal vigilance which U the price of Liberty. Rkfob* is necessary to rebuild and establish in the hearts of the whole people, the Union, eleven years ago happily rescued from the danger of a Secession of States; but now to bo saved from a corrupt Centralism which, after inflicting upon ten States the rapacity of carpet bag tyrannies, has honeycombed the offices of the Federal Government itself with Incapacity, waste and fraud; infected States (sod municipal ities with the contagion of misrule, aud locked fast the prosperity of an industrious people in the paralysis of ‘Hard Times/ Reform is necessary to establish a sound cur rency, restore the public credit, and maintain the national honor. We denounce the failure for all these eleven years of peace to make good the promise of the legal-tender notes, which are a changing stand ard of value iu the hands of the people, and the non-payment of which Is a disregard of the plighted faith of the nation. We denounce the improvidence which in eleven years of peace has taken from the people in Federal taxes thirteen times the whole amount of the legal-tender notes and squandered four times their sum in useless expense without ac cumulating any reserve for their redemption. We denounce the financial imbecility and im morality of that party which, during eleven years of peace, has made no advance toward resumption, no preparation for resumption, but instead ha© obstructed resumption, by wasting our resources and exhausting all our surplus Income;and, while annually professing to in tends speedy return to specie payments, has annually enacted fresh hindrances thereto. As such a hindrance we denounce the Resumption day clause of the act of 1875 and demand itß re peal. We demand a judicious system of preparation by public economies, by official retrenchments, and by wise finance, which shall enable the nation soon to assure the whole world of its perfect ability and its perfect readiness to meet any of its promises at the call of the creditor en titled to payment. We believe such a system, well devised, and, above all, entrutsod to competent hands foi execution, creating at no time an artificial scar city of currency and at no time alarming the public mind into a withdrawal of that/aster machinery of credit by which 95 per cent, of all business transactions ate performed,—a system open, public, and inspiring general confidence, would from the day of fta adoption bring healing on its wings to all oar harrsssed industries, set in motion the wheels of commerce, manufac tures, and the mechanic arts, restore employ ment to Isbor, and renew in all its natural sources the prosperity of the people. Revokm is necessary in the sum and modes of Federal Taxation, to the end that capital way be set free from distrust, and labor lightly bur dened. We denounce the present Tariff, levied upon nearly 4,000 articles, as a masterpiece of injus tice, in equality, and faMf pretense. It yields a dwindling, not a yearly rising revenue. It has impoverished many industries to subsidize a few. It prohibits imports that might purchase th products of American labor. It has degraded American commerce from the first to an inferior rank on the high seas. It has cut down tho sales of American manufactures at heme and abroad, and depleted the returns of American agriculture—an industry followed by half our people. It costs tho people five times more than It produces to tho treasury, obstructs the processes of production, and wastes the fruits of labor. It promotes fraud, fosters smuggling, enriches dishonest officials, snd banrupts honest merchants. We demand that all the Custom- House taxation shall be only for Revenue. Reform is necessary, in the scale of Public Expense—Federal, State and Municipal. Our Federal taxation has swolen from 60 millions gold, in lSflfl, to 460 millions currency, in 1870; onr aggregate taxation from 1&4 millions gold in 1860, to 730 millions currency in 1370; or in one de cade, from less than $5 per head to more than $lB per head. Since the peace, the people have paid to their tax gatherers more then thrice the sum of the national debt, and more than twice that sum for the Federal Government alone. We demand a religious frugality in every depart ment, and from every officer of the Government. Refobm Is necessary to pet s stop to the profligate waste of public lands and their diver sion from actual settler* by the party iu power, which has squandered 200 millions of acres upon railroads alone, and out of more than thrice that aggregate has disposed of less than a sixth direct ly to tillers of the soil. Reform is necessary to correct the omissions of a Republican Congress and the errors of our treaties and our diplomacy winch have stripped our feHow-citizens of foreign birth and kindred race r©crossing the Atlantic, of the shield of American citizenship, and have exposed our brethren of Uie Pacific coast to the incursions of a race not sprung from the same great parent stock, snd iu fact now by law denied citizenship through nafcurailzation>s being neither accus tomed to the traditions of a progressive civiliza tion nor exercised in liberty under equal laws. We denounce the policy which thus discards the liberty-loving German and tolerates the revival of the coolie trade in Mongolian women import ed for immoral purposes, aud Mongolian men hired to perform servile labor contracts. Reform is necessary and <ma never be effected but by making it the controlling i*sue of the eieetktfis, and lifting it above the two tele issues with which the office-bolding class and the party in poweF seek to *ia©tbr it—- 1. Tho false issue with which they would en kindle sectarian strife to respect to the public schools, &t which the establishment and support belong exclusively to the several States, snd which tee Democratic party has cherished from their foundartkWJ, Slid is resolved to maintain without prejudice ok preference for any class, sect or creed, and without largesses from the Treasury to any. 2. The false issue by which they seek to light anew the dying embers of sectional hate between kindred people once estranged, but now re united in one indivisible republic and a common destiny. Reform is necessary in the Civil Service. Ex perience proves that efficient, economical con duct of the governmental business is not possible if its civilservice be subject to change at every election, be a prize fought for at the ballot-box, be a brief reward of party zeal, instead of posts of honor assigned for proved competency, snd held for fidelity in the public employ; that the dis pensing of patronage should neither be a tax np on the time of our public men, nor the instru ment of their ambition. Hercytgain promises falsified in the performance, sttWt that the party in power can work out no practical or salutary reform. Reform is necessary even more in the higher grades of the public service. President, Vice- President, Judges, Senators, Representatives, Cabinet officers, these and all others in authority are the people's servants. Their offices are not a private perquisite; they are a public trust. When the annals of this Republic show the dis grace snd censure of a Vice-President; a late Speaker of the House of Representatives market ing his rulings ss s presiding officer; three Seu ators profiting secretly by their votes m law-ma kers; five chairmen of the leading committees of the House of Representatives exposed in jobbery; a late Secretary of the Treasury forcing balances in the public accounts: a late Attorney-General misappropriating public funds; a Secretary of the Navy enriched or enriching friends, by per centagas levied off the profits of contractors with hi# department; an Embassador to England cen sured in a dishonorable speculation; the Presi dent's Private Secretary barely escaping convic tion upon trial for guilty complicity in frauds upon the revenue; a Secretary or War impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors —the demon stration is complete, that the first step in Re form must be the people's choice of honest men from another party, lest the disease of one po litical organization infect the body politic, and lest by making no change of men or parties we get no change of measures and no real Reform. All these abuses, wrongs and crimes, the pro duct of sixteen years’ ascendancy of the Republi can party, create a necessity for Reform confess ed by Republicans themselves; but their reform ers are voted down in convention and displaced from the Cabinet. The party’s mass of honest voters is powerless to resist the 80,000 office holders, its leaders and guides. Reform can only be had by a peaceful Civil Revolution. We demand a change of system, a change of administration, a change of parties, that we may have a change of measures and of men, TAIMftIIVC.

ALL WANTING FRUIT FARMS, ESPECIALLY ADAPTED TO THE GROWTH OF THE VINE, WHERE IT IS AN ESTABLISHED SUCCESS AND PAYS LARGE PROFIT. THE LAND IS ALSO ADAPTED TO THE GROWTH OF PEACHES, PEARS, APPLES AND SMALL FRUITS; ALSO, GRAIN, GRASS AND VEGETABLES. Many hundreds of excellent VINEYARDS, ORCHARDS and FARMS can now be seen. The Location is only 34 miles south of Philadelphia, by railroad, in a mild, delightful climate, aud at the very doors of the New York and Philadelphia markets. Another railroad runs direct to New York. The place is already large, successful and prosperous. Churches, schools, and other privileges are already established. Also, manufactories of Shoes, Clothing, Glass, Straw Goods, and other things, at which different members ofa family can procure employment. It has been a health resort for some years past for people suffering from pulmonary affections, Asthma, Catarrh, Ague and debility; many thousands have entirely recovered. Anew brick Hotel has Just been completed, 100 feet front, with back buildings, four stories high, including French roof, aud all modern improvements for the accommodation of visitors. Price of Farm Land $25.00 per Aero, payable by installments, within the period of four years. In this climate, planted out to vines, 20 acre* of land will count fully as much as 100 acres further north. Persons unacquainted with fruit growing, can become familiar with it in a short time on account of surroundings. Five Acre, One Acre, and Town Lots, iu tho towns of Landisville and Vinoland, also for sale. While visiting tho Centennial Exhibition, Vine|aud can be visited at small expense. A paper containing full information, will be sent upon application to CHARLES K. LANDIS, Vineland, IV. J., free of cost. The following is an extract from a description, published in the Now York Tribune, by the wol known agriculturist, Solon Robinson: All the farmers wore of the “well to do” sort, and some of them, who have turned their attention to fruits and market gardening, have grown rich. The soil is loam, varying from sandy to clayey, and surface gently undulating, intersected with small streams and occasional wot meadows, iu which deposit* of peat or muck are stored, sufficient to fertilize tho whole upland surface, after it has been exhausted of its natural fertility. It is certainly one of tho moat extensive fertile tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable condition for pleasant farming, that we know of this side of the Western prairies. We found some of tho oldest farm* apparently juft as profitably productive as whon first cleared of forest fifty or a hundred years ago. The geologist would soon discover the cause ofthis continued fertility. Tho whole country is a marine deposit, and all through the soil we found evidences of calcareous substances, generally in the form of indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, ortho tertia ry formation; and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil, iu a very comminuted form, and iu the exact condition most easily assimilaiod by such plants as tho farmer desires to ultivate. THE MORNING NEWS, SAVANNAH, GA, ' I rnriE POLITICAL CAMPAIGN OF 1876, WHICH L include* National, State and county elections, and which will undoubtedly be the most active and hotly contested of any since the memorable canvas# of 1860, is now fairly opened. The Na tional Democratic Party will this year make a bold, vigorous, anl doubtless successful strug gle lor the maintenance and supremacy of those principles which are vital to the prosperity of tho Republic and essential to tho well-being of tho people. In addition to the Presidential election, the people iu Georgia and Florida will elect new State governments. In Florida tho campaign promises to bo unusually vigorous, and there is a probability that for the first time since the war the people of that Radical-ridden State will elect a Democratic State Government. In these cam paigns the people of the South are deeply inter ested; and everv intelligent citizen, who has the welfare of his country and his section at heart, should acquaint himself with every detail of the great work of redemption and reform that is now going on. To this end lie *hould subscribe to and assist in circulating the Savannah Morning; News, an independent Democratic newspaper, of pro nounced opinions and fearless in their expres sion ; a paper that is recognized everywhere as the best daily in the South. Its editorial de partment is vigorous, thoughtful and consistent, while its news and local departments are marvels of industry and completeness. Its department of Georgia aud Florida affairs is not confined to a mere barren summary ot events transpiring in those States, but is enlivened by comment at once apt, timely, and racy. The ample resources of the establishment will be devoted to furnishing tho readers of the MORNING NEWS with the latest intelligence 'rora all parts of the world, through the press dispatches, special tel egrams, aud by means of special correspondence; aud through these agencies the paper will be the earliest chronicler of every noteworthy incident of the political campaign of 1876.
