DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
I'KEAM III.E.
AVe, the Llbornl Republicans of tlio
United States In Convention assembled at
Cincinnati, proclaim tlio following princl
plei u essential to Just government:
dead insvr.s Ili niKD.
1. VTo recognize tlio equnlityof nil
men beforo tlio law, nnd bold thnt it is
the duty oftbo government in its dealings
with the people to mete out EQUAL AND
EXACT JUSTICE TO ALL, OF

COLOR OH PERSUASION, HELL
OIOUS OK POLITICAL.
2. WE PLEDGE OURSELVES TO
MAINTAIN THE UNION OP THESE
STATES, EMANCIPATION AND EN
FRANCHISEMENT, AND TO OP
POSE ANY REOPENING OF THE
QUESTIONS SETTLED I5Y THE
THIRTEENTH, FOURTEENTH AND
FIFTKENTH AMENDMENTS OF
THE CONSTITUTION.
UNIVERSAL AM.VKNTV.
3. We demand the immediate nnd nb
olute removal of all disabilities imposed
on account of tho rebellion which was
finally subdual seven years ngo, believing
that UNIVERSAL AMNESTY WILL
RESULT IN THE COMPLETE PAC
IFICATION IN ALL SECTIONS OF
THE COUNTRY-
DEM.OCH VTIC TO Till: COKE.
4. LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT
with impartial suffrage, will guard tho
rights of all cltiznns moro securely than
any centralized power. The people and
tho publicwelfare require tlio SUPRE
MACY OF THE CIVIL OVER THE
MILITARY AUTHORITY nnd
FREEDOM OF PERSON UNDER
THE PROTECTION OF THE HA
BEAS CORPUS. Wo demand for tho
individual tho largest liberty consistent
with public order, for tho state self-government,
and for tho nation a return to
the methods of pnaco and tho constitu
tional limitations of power.
"TIlL'i: AS I'KEAt'lII.MJ."
6. The civil se:vico of tho government
has become a mere instrument of partisan
tyranny and personal ambition, and nn
object of selfish greed. It is a scandal
and reproach upon free institution!, and
breeds a demoralization dangerous to the
perpetuity of republican government.
tiilkki-oki: a wisi: nr.Mt.Mi,
0. We therefore regard a THOROUGH
REFORM OF THE CIVIL SERVICE
as one of tho most pressing necessities of
the hour; that, honesty, capacity and fidel
ity constitute the only valid claims to pub
lic employment; that the offices or the
government cease to be a matter of arbi
trary favoritism and palro'ia', and that
public station lecomu again tho pot of
honor. TO THIS END IT IS IMPER
ATIVELY REQUIRED THAT IK)

outsider in the lato fight between Brush
nnd others, I regretted to sco tho letter
from your correspondent Joo. Ho ono

proposed that nil formalities bo waved
and that tho mavor bo olectcd nt thoregu

economical proceeding, but tho proposl
tlon was objected to. and failed. At tho
election fjr Aldermen. Messrs. .1. M
KlehArt. A. C. Ilrvdon, II. F. Goo nnd .1
V. Darling were olectcd. Throo of theso
nro run by Brush, and by them
and old Dan tho scheme was
concocted, that tho election for
mayor should bo prevented, and that
Mr. Brydun should bo chosen by tho
council ns acting mayor. Accordingly,
tho Saturday previous to tho election for
mayor, these gentlemen rganized them
selves into it council and elected Brydcn
acting mayor nnd old Dan clerk and at
torney. This wns dane, mark you, beforo
tho outgoing board had tl.ilshcd their bus

expired. As soon as Brush lind donned
his official robes, without consent of tlio
custodian of tho city proporty, lie picked

Now, n word regarding Daniel's perse
cution. Beforo your time, Mr. Bui.lkti.v,
but yet not so long since, but that
it is fresh in tlio minds of many
in this community, Brush was prosecuted
by Judgo Jinkins for slander. Thnt
Julgo Jenkins was ono of tho greatest
and best men Illinois over produced, fow
will deny; but. yet ho was compolled to
take refugo behind the law from Brush's
filthy tonguo nnd pen. Again, tho Grand
Jury room bus been usod by Dan. Brush
to gratify personal mulice at almost every
term of court, for ten, perhaps twentv
ears past. But a littlo over u year ago,
ho tried to havo Judgo Lemma indicted for
mulfeasatico in office sending into tho
ury two legnl cap pages of law and in
ductions, but never whispering a word of
tlio law under which Mr. Lcuima win
lucted and held his office. Wns this un
honorable, high-minded wav to treat a
oung brother uttorney? Again, but a
short timo ago, ho went before the gland
ury and caused eight indictments to bo
found against Billy Greenwood, a coloied
man, for periury. Billv's ollenco was
simply signing affidavits of citizenship for
unregiMereu voters. Mr. Henry Bucklos,
a neighboring fanner, was also indicted
ror the sumo offence. When these indict
menu wcro brought into court, thov were
kicked out by thu Judge in an unceromo
nluus manner. AV,IS it Christinn-liko and
high-toned to endeavor to send a pour col
"red man to jail for months V Yet, that
was honest Dan. ilrut,h s object, as Billv's
bond was necesinrllv til, .lit il,m,t,i ,ii

cueu, out Jut 0I10 ioro thu dirtiest, fllthi-

tho cry of jiersecution for politlcul oplnl

without doubt, bo renominated and elect,

Daniel parades tho resolutions adopted
by tho lawyers concerning his trial for
theft. Did you notice that tho resolutions
were not signed by but ono of our law
yers; That is the fact, and a significant
one, too,
A word about tho "ring" which tho
great and good D, II. speuksof, and I will
o'"e, Carbondale never has had but on
ring. Daniel was formerly the center of
n littlo one, nnd quitonn array of stars of
small magnlludo revolved around him.
But flvo years ngo that littlo ring was
busted by us tho people. Brush got mad
about It, nnd has never been In a good hu
mor since. Ho settled here when land
wns sold nt n dollnr and a quarter nn ncro,
and becnuso a town has sprung up nnd
mndo him rich, ho thinks ho ought to bo a
littlo king. Carbondnlo is an enterprising
town has thrco railroads a normal unl-
crslty and prospective cotton mill, but It
isn't big enough to sport n king j so Danlol
will probably dlo nnd bo buried an humblo
citizen. Wo hnvo no rings. If n tnnn
wants ofllco ho runs for It and gets it If he
can. I or instance, ni tno receni lowmiiiji
election there were seven candidates
for township collector. People now do ns
they please, oven without consulting

OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.
Sprcl.il Correspondent of tho Ilullctln.
St. lA)iii June nth, IS72,
Tho past wook has been n gaico ono for
St. Louis. Never within tlio history of
tho city or its oldest InhabitcnU hns it
been so decorated with flags, banners,
evergreens, festoons, wreaths, mottoes &c,
Tho National Saongcrfest has proved un
immonso succes, nnd St. Louis hns been
awarded tho palm over all tho proceeding
festivals. Tho procession on Wcdnesdny
was immense. Imngino a compact mass o
human beings on the move, marching
never less thun four abreast, nnd from that
to full pluttoons, by tho military, nnd
reaching from the Htono Depot to Mound
City and you hnvo somo idea of its mngnl
lude. From whero wo witnessed tho pro
cession it wns precisely two hours nnd ten
minutos in passing, wo counted no less
than twenty-six bands of music in addi
tion to which nt intorvnls some of tho
societies would break out with tho
" Wntch on tho Rhino " accompanied by
their bands, tlio effect of which was very
fine. Thu route was about seven miles in
length, nnd tho entiro distance was crowded
with spectators, not only tho streets, but
tho windows, trees, nnd oven housetops.
No American in tlio city but what will
understand tho word " Willkommon
which greets you at every tuno while
every street nnd nearly every houso nlong
tho whole seven miles was profusely
decorated with American and German
flags, evergreens nnd mottoes. The
Southern hotel looked magnificently, tho
flags, Prussinn and German being sus
pended from each window around the en
tiro building. On the balconies wcro hung
chineso lanterns whicb, when lighted at
night, gavo a gay appearanco to tlio
place. Tho Slngor Sowing Machlno Co.,
had a largo nnd unique banner stretched
across tho slreot with tho words "Tbo
Singer wolcomes tho Sacnger, " which
recolvcd ropcated choors ns tho procession
passed boncnth it. Last evening wo at
tended tho first grand concort nt tho im
monso Saengcrfest hall, whoro over 12,000
persons were present. Tho opening over
ture, by ono orchestra of over ono hun
dred nnd sixty instruments gnvo us n
forctasto of what was to follow.
Soon the chorus roso from their soats
fifteen hundred men good and true. Tbo
conductor struck tho chords on the piano,
then left it, mounted his stand, took his
"baton" and gave tho signal to com
mence. The effect can bo Imagined but
not easily described. The chorus large as
it was, was under complcto control, and
tho singing was grand. At tbo conclusion
a roundof deafening applause which could
be heard squares away, brought the cho
rus again to their feet und tho " Freedom
of Song" was given with even moro pow
erful effect than before. Wo then enjoy
ed a soprano solo, " Lot tho Bright Sora
phi in," from tho Ontario of Samson,-
rendcrtd by Mrs. Edmond Deter of Cin
cinnati. It wns sublime, nnd showed a
most wonderful compass of voico. In ren
ponsoto thu deafening npplnuso Mrs. De
ter cumo forward on the stHgo accompa
nied by rrnnz Abt, tho great German
composer, whoso appearanco wns hailed
with hearty cheers. Ho took his seat at
tho piano and played tho accompaniment
to his own composition" When the
Swallows Homownrd Fly," which wus
sweetly rendored by Mrs, Deter, nnd also
greeted with frantic applause by the im
mense audience.
Wo havo neither space nor timo to give
fuller details at this time; wo only wish all
of tho good citizens of Cairo wore horo to
enjoy the great musical treat witli which
wo nro now being favored. Wo notice
among those who arc horo from your city,
Messrs. Schuh, Schlcsslngor and Pors
ineyer, who can enter moro fully into par
ticulars on their return homo.
Thu Master Cnr Buildors' Association of
tho United Stutes havo been holding their
annual session bore during '.the week.
They number over ono hundred, and havo
received many attentions from tho hands
of our citizens. Their next meeting will
bo held in Boston, Juno 3d, 1873.
Tho public schools havo all held their
nnnual examinations during tho week, and
tho 'JO.000 schoolchildren after to-day will
be as free us tho birds of tho air for tho
next two months.
Tho warm woathor fur the nast few davs
has hud tho efluet to hasten tho dopnrturo
of many of our citizens, who, with their
families, will, during the hot term, hlo to
..-n more nnd mountain nldu. Your
correspondent, u usual, begins to feel tho
premonitory symptoms of this annuul epi.
dcii.ie, and will, o doubt, be soon "on the
wing ' himself for health and pleasure com
bined, and also to tnko items for the Bul-
LKT1N.
Amusoinents, owing to tlt0 throng of
strangors hero, havo been well patronized.
DeBars and Tony Pnstor's troupos, have
drawn good bousos. The notorious Josie
MamflolJ can be teen nightly nt tho thea
tro in ono of tho private boxes. It is said
that she is the traveling companion of
Ella Weanur, ono of tho company, AVhat
a fulling off from Flsk to Pastor I Next
weok wo are to hnvo Bryant's minstrels
from Now York, nnd after them comes
Billy Emmcrson nnd his " nigger ' from
California. Rankin Is running his Rip
Van Winkle nt his cozy littlo theatre, nnd
takes his twenty years' nap every
night, with great applnuso. At tho Olym
pic, Oimco, with her Opera Botiffo troupe,
is drawing well.
Tho trial of Dr. Borkley, which nns uo-
come tosllous from Its very 1 ength, has at
last been brought to a close, nnd, us was
expected by many, resulted in his acquit
tal of nil tho charges brought against him.
Of course, ho was warmly congratulated
by his friends, while thoro nro otucrs who
think otherwise, nnd loud In their denun
ciations of what they term his "white
washing." As ever,

Your note of tho 10th Inst, conveying to

vien.nresident is beforo me. I need not
rivo vou tho assuranco of my grateful a p.
preclatloti of the high honor conferred on
f.o hv this' action of tho fifth national con
vention of tho republican party. Sixteen
vents, in thu samu city, was held tlio first
meeting of tho men who, nmld tho darkness
nnd doubts of that hour of slave-holding
ascendancy nnd agression, had ussemblei
in national convention to confer with eacli
on tho exigencies to which that fearful
domination find urougnt incir country
After a full conference, the hiuhest poln
of resolve they could reach, the mot they

met by its representatives from .'1
states and ton territories, at th
same urcat coiiter of wealth

put, take note of tint present, and indicato
its lino of action for tbo future. As
tvnlcal facts, headlands of tho nation'
recent history thoro sat on its platform
tak nt; prominent and lionorutiio part I
its proceedings, admit'.cd on terms of
perfect duality to tbo leading hotels of
tho city, not only tho edorcd reprcsentn
lives of tho raco which wcro ten years be
lore In abject slavery, out one oi tno oleics
nnd most prominent of the once despised
abolitionists to wiiom wns accorded, us to
no other, tho warmest demonstrations
popular regard und esteem. nn ovation
not to him alone, but to the cause he had
so ably and tor so many years represented
und to tho men and women, liviiitr an
dead, who had toiled through long years of
obloquy and self-sacrldco for tho glorious
fruition oi tuat Dour. It hardly needed
the brilliant summary of its platform to
set lortn its illustrious achievements, i n
very presence of those mon wus nlon
significant of victories already achieved
progress already made, and tho great
distance which tho nation had traveled be
twecn tho years 1856 and 1872,
But crnnd as has been its record, tho He
publican party rests not on its past alone,
It looks to tho futuro nnd grupplcs with
its problems of duty and danger. It pro
poses, ns tho objects ot its inimcdiato uc
complishment, complcto liberty uud oxact
equality lor ull; tuo cniorcemctu oi tno re
cent nmendmcnts to the national constitu
tion; reform in tho civil service; tho mi
tional domain to bo set apart fur homes
ror tho pooplc; tno adjustment ot tho du
ties on imports so as to securo remuncra
live wages to labor; tho oxtonslon o
bounties to all soldiers and sailors who, I
tho lino of duty, have become disnblcd; tho
continual und careful encouragement and
protection of voluntary immigration, and
tho guarding with zealous care, rights of
adopted citizens; tuo abolition ot mo rank
Ing privilege, und tho speedy reduction of
tho rales ot postage; tno reduction oi tn
national dett, and rates of interest, nnd tho
resumption ofspeclo payment; tho encou
ncement of American commerce und of
ship-building; tho suppression of violonco
ana tho protection of tho ballot-box. It
also placed on rccoed tbo opinion and pur
poses of tho party in favor of umnesty,
against all forms of repudiation, and en
dorsed the humane and peaceful policy of
the administration In repurd to tho In
dians. But whilo clearly defining and distinctly
announcing tho policy of the republican
party on these questions of practical
legislation una administration, tlio con
vention did not ignoro the grent social
problems whicli aro pressing their claims
tor solution, ana w men demand the most
careful study and wiso consideration.
Foremost stands tho labor question. Con
cerning the relations of capital und labor,
tho republican party accepts tho duty of
so shaping legislation un to secure full
protection and the amplest field for capital
und tho labor, thu creation of capital, tlio
largest opportunities and just sliaro of
mutual profits of these two great sorvants
ot civilization. To women, too, and her
now demands, it extends thu hand of grate
ful recognition, und proffers its most
respectful inquiry. It recognizes her
noblo dovotion to tho country and frco
dom; welcomes her admission to wider
Holds of usefulness, and commends her de
mands for additional rights to tho cnlm nnd
careful consideration of the nation. To
guard well what has already been secured,
to work out faithfully und wisely what is
now in hand, und to consider questions
whico uro looming up to vlow but
a littlo way boforo us, tho ropubljcan
party Is to-dny what it wns in tho
gloomy years of slavery, rebellion, and re
construction u national necessity. It ap
peal, therefore, for support to tho patri
otic and liberty-loving; to tho just nnd
huiiiano ; to all who would dignify labor;
to nil who would educate, ulovnte, and
lighten tho burdens of tho sons und
daughters of toll, With its great records,
its work still to bo dono, und under tho
great soldier whoso historic renown and
whoso successful administration for tho
last three years begot such popular confi
dence, tho republican party may confi
dently, in thu language of tho convention
you represent, start on n new march to
victory.
Having accepted, 30 yonrs ago, tho dis
tinguishing doctrines of thu republican
party of to-day ; having during tho yoars
of that period for thoir advancement sub
ordinated all other issues, acting in and
co-operating with political organizations
