THE PLATFOEM
Of the National liejmblican Tarty. Adopted at Chicago, May 21, 18GS.
. The following platform, reported by
the Committee on Ilesolutiojis, was
unanitnouisly adopted by the National
Republican Convention in session at
Chicago:
The National Republican party of
the United States, assembled in Nat
ional Convention in the city of Chicago
on the 20th day of May,.l8ti8, make
the following declaration of princi
ples :
First. "NVe congratulate the country
on the assured success of the recon
struction projects of Congress, as evinc
ed by the adoption, tn a majority of
the States lately in rebellion, of con
stitutions securing eoual civil and
jKlitical right? to all, and regard it as
the duty of tlie government to sustaiu
these institutions and to prevent the
people of such States from being re
mitted to a state of anarchy.
Second. The guarantee of Congress
of equal suflrage to all loyal men of
the South was demanded by every
consideration of public safety, of grat
itude, and of justice, and must le
maintained, while tlie question of
suffrage in all the loyal States proer
ly belongs to the people of those Suites.
.Third. We denounce all forms of
repudiation as a national crime, and
honor requires the payment of the na
tinoal iudebtednestsin the utmost good
faith to all creditor, at home and
abroad, not only according to the letter
but the spirit oi the laws under which
it was contracted.
Fourth. It is due to the labor of the
nation that taxation should be equal
ized and red u ceil as rapidly as the
national faith will permit.
Filth. The national debt, contracted
as it has Icen for the preservation of
the Union for all time to come, should
be extended over a fair period for re
demption, and it is the duty of Con
gr?!M to reduce the rate of interest
(hereon whenever it cuii Mjsible ie
done.
.sixth. That the best Kliey to dim
inish our burden or' debt is to ho im
prove ourciedit that capitalists will
seek to loan us money at lower rates of
interest than we now pay, and must
continue to pay so iongus repudiation ,
partial or total, open or eovei t, is threat
eiiiM or suspected.
rsevii.lh, ihe uovcrimieut of the
United fstates should be administered
with the strictest economy, and the
coirwpuoiis which have been so shame
fully nursed and fostered by Andrew
Johnson call loudly for radical re
form. Eighth. "We profoundly deplore
the untimely and trairic deatli of
Abraham Lincoln, and regret the ac
cession or .Andrew .lonnson to tne
1 'residency,' who has acted treacher
ously to the people - who elected him
and the cause he was pledged to sup
port ; has usurped legislative and jud
icial functions ; has refused to execute
tlie laws ; has used his high office to
induce other officers to ignore and vio
late the laws ; has employed his ex
ecutive power to render insecure the
proserity, peace, liberty, and life of
the citizens ; has abused the pardon
ing power ; has denounced the Nation
al Legislature as unconstitutional;
has persistently and corruptly resisted,
by every means in his power, every
proper attempt at the reconstruction
of the States lately in rebellion; has
perverted the public patronage into
an engine of wholesale corruption, and
has been justly impeached for hih
crimes and misdemeanors, and prop
erly pronounced guilty by the votes
of thirty-five Senators.
Ninth. The doctrine of Cireat Rrit
ain and other European powers, that
because a man is once a subject he is
alwavs so, must le resisted at every
hazard by the United States as a relic
of the fedual times, not authorized by
the law of nations and at war with our
national honor and independence.
Naturalized citizens are entitled to be
protected in all their rights of citizen
ship as though they were native lorn,
and no citizen of the United States,
native or naturalized, must be liable
to arrest and imprisonment by any
foreign power for acts done or words
spoken in this country And if so ar
rested and imprisoned, it is the duty of
the C5overnment to interfere , in his
behalf.
Tenth. Of all who were faithful in
the trials of the late war there are none
entitled to more esjiecial honor than
the brave soldiers and seamen Mho
endured the hardship of cnTnn:gn
and cruise, and imperiled their lives in
Ihe service of their country. The
bounties and pensions provided by
law for these brave defenders of the
nation are obligations never to be for
gotten. The widows and orphans of
the gallant dead are the wards of the
jeopie, a sacred legacy bequeathed to
the nation's protecting care.
Eleventh. Foreign emigration,
which in the past has added so much
to the wealth and development ol the
resources and tlie increase of power ol
this nation, "the asylum of the op
pressed olall nations,'' should le iost
ered and encouraged by a liberal and
just policy.
Twelfth. This convention declares
its sympathy with all the oppressed
people who'are struggling lor their
rights.
On motion t f Gen. Carl Schurz, the
following additional resolutions we
unanimously adopted as part of the
platform:
JiCo?rcd, That we highly commend
the spirit of magnanimity and forbear
ance with which the men who have
served in the rebellion, but now frankly
and honestly co-operate with us in
restoring the i ace of the country and
reconstructing the Southern State gov
ernments upon the basis of impartial
justice and equal rights, are received
back into the communion of the loyal
people: and we favor the removal of
the disqualifications and restrictions
imposed upon the late rebels in the
same measure as their spirit of loyalty
will direct, as niav be consistent with
t Uf safety of tl!9l'ynl pple.

Seymour a? a Statesman.
A queer basis, the claim of Horatio
Seymour to statesmanship has, 44 when
you come to look at it."
He opposed the AVilmot Froviso.
He supported the Fugitive Slave
Law.
He sustained the Nebraska bill re
pealing the restriction on slavery ex
tension.
He apologized for or defended the
border ruffian outrages in Kansas.
He sustained Breckinridge against
Douglas in lSflO.
He threw the blame of the begining
of secession upon the Republicans
while .Mr. Lincoln was only President
elect.
He asserted that to call out troops to
suppress the rebellion was more "rev
olutionary " than the reliellioii itself.
He declared tlie Montgomery con
stitution better than ours, and ex
pressed the opinion that the war
ougnt to be avoided by the North
adopting it, thus giving the highest
possible sanction to treason.
Jle never in the last eijrlit veal's once
delivered any argument, anneal.
denunciation or censure asrr.iust the
rebel cause; and never failed to charge
revolution, usurpation, outraged op
pression, tyranny and all the political
crimes in the calander upon the Re
publeans. July 4, 1S03, while Lee's army was
in Pennsylvania, on its way to Phi
adelphia and New York, and he had
hand aid y of iUtsitccasA, he delivered
an oration in New York, imploring
the North to compromise, warning it
airninst eY7 war at home, and de
nouncing the Republicans for 44 in
fringing upon our rights, insulting
ourhonies. and depriving us of those
cherished principles for which our
fathers fought, and to which we have
sworn allegiance.
In oration aforesaid he warned the
Republicans thus : " Rernemberthis;
that the bloody, treasonable, and
revolutionary, uoctiine of public nec
essity can be proclaimed by a mob as
well as by a (iovernment."
When Lee had been defeated, and
nevertheless the mob arose, which
his language had invited, he address
ed them ti his " friends." was receiv
ed as their "friend," and promised to
get what, they were fighting for, the
suspension ol the draft.
He told Mr. Lincoln that the draft
act was unconstitutional, and warned
him that if it was enforced his 'friends'
might resist it.
He presided at the Chicago Conven
tion, and, with it, declared the war a
failure, and called for an immediate
peace that is for disunion.
He opposed, and now opposes the
Fourteenth amendment, and all mea
sures marking treason as a crime.
Finally during the last eight years,
he has been admired and honored by
every rebel in the country, and dh
trusted and hated by ninetv-nine out
of a hundred of those who demanded
the suppression of treason.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER
L-elter fi-oai Sew Mexico.
Rio Mumbres, New Mexico, 1
j Sept. 2, 1SG3.
Editor Advertiser : I mailed my
last letter jto you from Fort Craig.
This Fort Is a email mud enclosure
with a garrison insufficieut to even
take care of, themselves, proved by the
fact that for the past three years in
succession the Indians have taken
their stock' from them, and last year
their horses were taken from six arm
ed herders, and from under the guns
of the Fort, as I am credibly informed.
Leaving Fort Craig we l ecross the Rio
Grand to east side, and travel ten
miles to Faniyes (place of rest) and
stop to rest uid recruit our teams, pre
vious, to ; !' -rnfts the "Jonada
dtl M';- - without wood
or .vat .V, ,...,',! u; i.ae present -time
eome c:;terprisiujindividualhas about
half way across, dug out water tanks,
where he dispenses the warm stagnate
fluid at so much per drink per head for
man or beast. AVe made the trip in
four days with our heavily loaded
teams, safely, but found it a very se
vere one on both men and animals.
We reach the river again at Fort Sel
dom This Fort is similar to Fort
Craig, although it presents from its
immediate surroundings, araorc cheer
ful appearance, being neat, clean and
having eonie shade trees around it. I
could not help noticing particularly
the herd of stock from which the Fort
is supplied with beef, and feel a sympa
thy with the officers and men who
have to eat it. The stock were poor
in every sense of the word; kept at
night in a dry corrall, in morn driven
from 5 to 7 miles out on the high dry
prairies to graze, in eve driven back
and watered in the warni muddy Rio
Grand and put In corrall; they could
not be otherwise than poor, and yet
they enjoy all the advantages the

cross the Rio Grand and start for Fort
Cummiugs, GO miles west. "Water at
the end of the first twenty miles,
where" it is again sold from a pond at
fromUo to0 cts. per drink for animals,
and no more water until we reach
Cook's spring, at the Fort. Fort
Cummings is a small adobe Fort, built
at the north of Cook's Canon, and at
the spring. The spring affords an
abundant supply of water, but like
most of the water we have yet found
in New Mexico, of indifferent quality.
Leaving this Fort we pass through a
very dangerous Canon for several
miles, over a very bad, rough, stony
road, ami start for Rio Mumbres, 20
miles distant, again without water on
the road. After-passing through the
canon, the road is good, and after
several hours travel we discern in the
distance what is termed the Rio Mum
bres, (the residence of Col. Porter,) as
We here propose to rest and recruit
up our teams, which, after so many
long hard drives, on poor grass and
no water, .tre badly used up. I must
in my next, give you a description of
this stream and valley, The whole
country over which we have passed
since leaving Fort Craig, presents the
same parched, barren, desolate ap
pearance; no timber, nothing but
mesqueto bush and a scanty -upply of
shortbunch grass, and a great scarcity
of water, and not a foot of land sus
ceptible of profitable cultivation on
the entire route. During our trip
across ".Tonradu," the thermometer
stood each day from 1G to H0 in tlie
shade compelling us tojravel mostly
at night. I noticed the thermometer
at midnight, when it wa3 down to 0i
and G2, where 1-hours previous it had
been up to OS or fi:d, producing a
change of temperature sensibly flt
without the aid of a thermometer.

Fortv-six hours from Quincy to the
citv of 'Brotherly Love, is now a com
mon achievement, thanks to raiiroad
facilities and their concomitant com
forts and conveniences. Taking either
route at Quincv.that is, theC. R&(.,
under its admirable management, or
the T. W. & Western Railway, with
its safe transit and certain connections,
voir strike tlie same train on the Pits
burg itc Ft. Wavne Road, and thence
go forward with lightning speed, to
ward your destination. And when
the M.& M. R. A. L. Railroad shall
have been completed to its western
terminus,- and ultimate connection
with the Union Pacific Railroad, at Ft.
Kearney, ours will le a favorite route
across the continent, and tlie long
trains of co.lv merchandise from the
far off Indus and Isles of the sea, will
come coursing along, leaving at inter
vals, rich deposits for the enterprising
merchant, while thepalaiial cars, start
ing from San Francisco, with their
full complement of pas-eng- rs, will
bring their living freight to the cities
of the Atlantic, in from live to seven
davs crossing niounUuns. rivers and
plains, in their rapid flight, and giving
ocular demonstration to the capabili
ties of human invention. Apart from
all considerations of local advantage,
thi- single reflection that the comple
tion of our road will place u right on
thereat highway of the nation, and
in the path of empire, is of itself suffi
cient to enlist the active energy and
support of the entire people of the
northeast Missouri, in favor of this
great railroad now so enterprisingly
begun. Cu'tton Mo.)Prx.

not equal to thatof thecurrent season,
was nevertheless large. It command

Some implacable Copperhead has
requested Henry Ward Reecher to an
swer several questions, which he has
done to the edification of others of the
same cla;s, as follows i
" Does the Republican nartv look nrvm fhn
mass of the Southern w hites, ns grin in i,

al men in the South?"
.No. no; they are still in the condi
tion in which the rebellion left them.
If a man break his leg, it has been
said that it tnkes him two months to
get well. Although the time between
breaking the leg and the time when
he walks round is two months; the
doctor has had hold of his leg, he will
set it in a minute, but he don't get
well in a minute. They broke their
leg very effectually, laughter. but it
doesn't get well in a day, nor in a year.
Renewed merriment. We do not

dition In which ihe rebellion left them
Don't you know when persons have
the measles, the doctors tell them to
beware of the seqvelrr the sequence

than the original attack. Parents are
to carefully guard their children
against those sequela:, as being very
dangerous. It is the neqnehr of the
rebellion that we are afraid of. Ap
plause. "Se.iiul : Were t'ae Ieon struct ion r.ioras

iuaUe the Rebels love and respeet them?'
No. They were passed to take care
of the whole community, black and
whitej loyal and disloyal. The recon
struction measures undertake to lay
the foundation for States on sound
principles, and to include in the ben
efits of this reconstruction every liv
ing being that breathed. Of course
they hoped that tlie loyalist would be
protected thev knew it ; but the ob
ject of the reconstruction measures
was the common good of the whole
people.
"Third: Have not the Reconstruction
measures haJ a contrary efiVct, ami axe not
the loyal men of the South worse treated to
day than they were in the .Summer of is3)?"
Yc, they arc worse treated, but the
reconstruction measures are not the
reason of it. It is the hope that in the
year past has been infused into the
minds of the South, that by alliance
with the Democratic party 'they will
be able to subvert all that has been
done. It is that which has made them
fiery and rampant in persecution.
Applause.Lct it once be understood
that Gen. Blair is to be President,
wearing Mr. Seymour as a vail laugh
ter and cheers ; let it once be under
stood throughout the South, and there
has been no period since the forma
tion of our Government in which such
bloodshed, such villainous tyranny,
such unbearable cruelty have been
perpetrated. They do not even care
to suppress the threat, and it is broad
ly proclaimed. Let it be understood
in the South that (Jen. Grant, by the
overwhelming determination of the
masses of the country, i to bo Presi
dent, and in less than one month, from
next November all these turmoils will
hush, ami nil these outcries will be
whist. Great applause.

There is a great distinction between
acting contrary to the Constitution
anil acting outside of it. We act out
side of the Constitution simply where
there is no provision in the Constitu
tion for our action, and whore the
times compel us to do something. If
there was in the Constitution some
thing for the rehabilitation of the re
bellious States, the Republican party
would certainly have obeyed the Con
stitution : but that never was contem
plated, and there wore no such pro
visions made in it, therefore, the Re
publican party was obliged to act out
side the Constitution, or not act at all.
As to this matter I confess I dont feel
sosensative alxut it as do the men who
spent four . ears .fighting against the
Constitution. I iin.e great respect for
it. I like it. . Rut it is nut so (b ar to

outcries, these most affect ionaie yearn

the reconstructed rebellion in the
South in behalf of the Constitution,
the dear, blessed Constitution. Lautrh
ter and applause. Why do I love
the Constitution?- Recause I Itlieve
it breathes and creates liberty every
where. Why are they so solicitous
for the Constitution ? Recause it
breathes liberty everywhere ? That is
the trouble. The Constitution they
mourn is the old Constitution faney
constructed; it is the old Constitution
that was brought Ix.'fore the courts
when the Southern men put judges in
the courts foresworn to make decisions
in favor of Slavery. That is the Con
stitution they mean. I mean the Con-
feature have we taken out of it that j
will circumscribe the independence of
the irieuvidual ? hat leature of the
Constitution that will make liberty
narrower? The very cause of offense
is that we have made liberty so broad
that there is no creature born of wo
man that does not become a citizen
under that Constitution. That is the
offense. Applause. O.no! O! My

How did they know how the South
was going to act? How did thev
know the spirit and temper? It was
a tentative business. The intrinsic
difficulty of reconstruction was to be
carried through with safety and with
speed. I lelieve mistakes" have been
made, and I tried i'o forestall some of
them ind re buke others, but with ill-
success. 1 U'lieve they made them ;
but, nevertheless, I think reconstruc
tion has been second only, if second r.t
all, to the manner in w'hich the war
itself was victoriously carried through.
