AVe, tho Liberal Republicans of tho
United States In Convention assembled at

ples as essential to just government:
DEAD IHHVEH III BIKD.
1. We recogntzo tho equality' of nil

with the people to mete out EQUAL AND
EXACT JUSTICE TO ALL, OF

THIRTEENTH, FOURTEENTH AND
FIFTEENTH AMENDMENTS OF
THE CONSTITUTION.
IMVEUNAI. AMXtCBTY.
3. We demand tho immediate and ab
solute removal of all disabilities imposod
on account of tho rebellion which was
finally subdued seven years ago, believing
that UNIVERSAL AMNESTY WILL
RESULT IN THE COMPLETE PAC
IFICATION IN ALL SECTIONS OF
THE COUNTRY-
DEMOCRATIC TO THE COKE.
4. LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT
with impartial suffrage, will guurd tho
rights of all citizens more securely than
any centralized power. Tho people and
the public welfare rcquiro tho SUPRE
MACY OF THE CIVIL OVER THE
MILITARY AUTHORITY and
FREEDOM OF PERSON UNDER
THE PROTECTION OF THE HA
BEAS CORPUS. Wo demand for tho
Individual tho largest liberty consistent
with public order, for the stato self-government,
and for tho nation a return to
the methods of peace nnd the conttitu
tlonal limitations of power.
"TRUE AN 1'Kr.ACITlXtl."
0. Tho civil servico of tho government
hat become a mere instrument of partisan
tyranny and personal ambition, nnd an
object of selfish greed. It is a scandal
and reproach upon freo institution, nnd
breeds a demoralization dangerous to tho
perpetuity of republican government.
TUEUEI'OKE A WINE DEMAND,

as one ot tho most pressing necessities of

of tho 'Herald,' and in waiters of business
he was quick, positivo nnd clear. It hns
been understood, in all parts of tho world
that tho 'Herald' always paid with liber

famo has given it on many occasions ad
vantages over its cotemporaries. Mr.
Bennett leaves a wife nnd two childron
a son nnd a dnughter. His wife has re
sided in Europe, usually in Switzerland,
we believe, for several years. His son and
daughter were in England when his alarm
ing illness was announced, and sailed for
homo on Friday, .lames Gordon Bennett,

his father bad faith in him that he would

RE
From tlio NewJ'ork llentM,
WailniiKton, June I'., I7;
President Grant received a telegram nt
noon to-day announcing that ho had been
renominated. Ho read It without innkiiii!
utiy remark, but handed it to General Hub
cock, who had received It from tho mes
Mirigcr, and Gonural llubcock was tho first
to congratulate him on tlio honor cuntcr
red. Tho President at tlio tiino tho mes
sago was received was Mono In his olilco.
lint low visitors had called duiing the
forenoon, and as thero was not tlui slight
ost possibility of business requiring his
presence nl tho executive mniikjmi, ho im
mediately ordered his buggy ami prepared
fur Mil afternoon drivo Uesiriiiu to avoid
tho congratulation of Tom, Dick nnil liar-
iv. r.ven tno cabinet onicors who wero
near ut hand did not consider it necessary
to show their esteem by hastening to the
White house, and Secretary Jioiitwoll who
had moru interest in tho nomination of
Wilson for tho vice presidency, remarked,
'Oh, Grant's nomination, of course, will not
surprise anybody; but what about tho
nomination lor vico-prosiuont i jsvery
ldy knows, or is supposed to know that
Grant Is a quiet man and dislikoi ull kinds
of khow. 'i o those who sincerely congratu
lated him upon his roi.omlnation ho quietly
and modestly leturned hit thanks, but do
clined to enter Into conversation. When
his carriage i was ready he drovo by himself
Into the suburbs of Washington and re
inalned away until dark. During tlio
evening the vlce-iirtsldent and a number
of senators called to conaratulwte him on
his renomlnation. Ho remarked to friends
this evening, after returning from his ride
that the announcement occasioned him no
tmrjiri.i-, at ueieguu's nau ueen lnstruetnj
to vote for him. and the procecdlm-a .,f
yesterday showed that this would bo UiU
result. Nevertheless, ho was highly
gratified that tho nomination was unan
imous, and folt under obligations to liU
countrymen who, through their delegates,
had to emphatically enuortod him, both in
their speeches and by their votoi, which
showed that the vilo slanders uttered
against him found Ho believers among his
friends.
What occurred Mbout tho Executive
Alanslon to-day was really moro monot
onous than an ordinary day's run of busi
ness, Had a stranger not known from
the telegrams received that tho prosent
occupant of the Whlto Houso had boon
invited, as far h it lies In tho power
nominating him, to run a in thero for four
years longer, no ono would have been tho
marrlaco an event which may el

AN ULTERIOR POLITICAL IMPORTANCE.
The formal assumption by him of tho
reins of power cannot be long delayed af
ter his marriage, nnd the first question
which he will have to decide on his own

Tbo epoch of marriage in Cbina is gener
ally held to bo the signal for this enianci-
nation. So wo may anticinnte that tho
question cannot be longer deferred than
the sprinc of 1872. To Europeans unfa
miliar witn the extravagant assumption of
a Chineso emperor, this matter must seem
much less important than it really is. For
It docs involve tne crucial point oi our re

China is superior to tho nations over whom
