DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
PREAMBLE.
We, the Liberal Republican! of the
United Statei in Convention aiiemblod at
Cincinnati, proclaim the following princi
ples as eisential to just government:
BAB IMUBa BTJBIKB.
1. We recognise tho equality of ail
men before the law, and bold that It is
the duty of the government in Its dealings
with the people to mete out EQUAL AND
EXACT JUSTICE TO ALL, OF
WH ATE VE R NATIONALITY, RACE,
COLOR OR PERSUASION, RELI
GIOUS OR POLITICAL.
2. WE PLEDGE OURSELVES TO
To-day will be genorally observed
at the national holiday through
hout the United States; and, in
spllo of tho hot weather, the wordy patri
ots all over the land will spout their vtr
bal patriotism, and sweating crowds pre
tend to lUten. We like the day, and will
endeavor to feel enthuilaitlcalty patri
otic, but we never could underttand why
the patriots of '78 did not declare their
freedom earlier or later in the year. They
should have had an eye single to the com
fort of their posterity.
MAINTAIN THE UNION OF THESE
STATES, EMANCIPATION AND EN
FRANCHISEMENT, AND TO OP
POSE ANY REOPENING OF THE
QUESTIONS SETTLED BY THE
THIRTEENTH, FOURTEENTH AND
FIFTEENTH AMENDMENTS OF
THE CONSTITUTION.
VBITBBBAt. ABWttBTY.
3. We demand the immediate and ab
solute removal of all disabilities imposed
on account of the rebellion which was
Unally subdued teven yeart ago, believing
that UNIVERSAL AMNESTY WILL
RESULT IN THE COMPLETE PAC
IFICATION IN ALL SECTIONS OF
THE COUNTRY
BHOCBATIO TO THE COBS.
4. LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT
with impartial mffrsge, will guard the
rights of all citizens more securely than
any centralised power. The people and
the public welfare require the SUPRE
MACY OF THE CIVIL OVER THE
MILITARY AUTHORITY and
FREEDOM OF PERSON UNDER
THE PROTECTION OF THE HA
BEAS CORPUS. We demand for the
individual the largest liberty consistent
with public order, for the state self-gov
ernment, and for the nation a return to
tbe methods of peace and the constitu
tional limitations of power.
"TIDE AB PBEAVHIMO."
6. The civil service of the government
lias become a mere instrument of partisan
tyranny and personal ambition, and an
object of selfish greed. It is a scandal
and reproach upon free institutions, and
breeds a demoralization dangerous to the
perpetuity of republican government.
THEBEFOBK A WISE DEMAND.
C. We therefore regard a THOROUGH
REFORM OF THE CIVIL SERVICE
us one of the most pressing necessities of
tbe hour; that honesty, capacity and fidel
ity constitute tho only valid claims to pub
lic employment; that the offices of tho
government cease to be a matter of arbi
trary favoritism and patronage, and that
Eublic station become again tbe post of
onor. TO THIS END IT IS IMPER
ATIVELY REQUIRED THAT NO
PRESIDENT SHALL BECOME A
CANDIDATE FOR RE-ELECTION.
TAMIsTsT tCBBTIOB MOVED ABIDE.
7. We demand a system of federal tax
ation which shall not unnecessarily inter
fere with the industry of the people, and
wmcu man proTiie me means necessary
to pay the expenses of tbe government,
uvonomically administered the pensions,
tbe Interest on the public debt and a mod

thereof, and rocognizo that there are in
our midst honest but irreconcilable dif
Terences of opinion with regard to the re
spective systems of protection and free

thus
The Louisville 'Courier-Journal'
speaks of the transformation of parties;
and at the risk of giving offence to the
Bourbon Democrats, who are just now un
dergoing a very unpleasant experience,
we declare this fanciful statement of the
situation to be our prosaic belief:
Macauuy, recalling one of the visions
of Dante in Mulebulge and applying it to
tbe whig una tones ei the ttniu or ueorge
maxim, lurunuci a, iiui uuuouiuiuu un-
torical tuuKctllon wnicn win serve to il
lustrate tbo slngulur transformation now
groin e on iu Amurlcan politics. A strange
combut arose between a human form and
a serpent. A mist uuvuluped tliem : and
then a wonderful sight wet seen. Each
creature took the shape of iu adversary.
The terpent't tail divided into two legs ;
tbo lees of tho man twisted themselves
into tbe tail of a serpent The body
of tbe serpent put forth arms; the
arms of tbe man sunk into bis body. At
length tho serpent roso up a man and
spoke; and tbo man sank down a serpent,
and gilded hissing away. Something of
this sort has happened with parties in our
country. Tbe democratic party was tbe
friondof slavery. The republican party
was the friend of freedom. In 1860 tho
republican loaders appealed to the liberal
ism of tbe people, and the democratic
leaders appealed to the constitution as it
was, and the slave code at they had made
it. Behold the change I Tbe friend of
slavery standi up a champion of freedom ;
and tbe pretended friend of freedom
crawls about tbo foot-stool of power, and
licks the feet of tbe president. It it the
vision of Dante, Yankeefied; it is the old
examplo of tbe despotic tendencies of long
possession degenerating into domineering
insolence ana going back on all its professions.

THE NEW YORK WORLD AT LAST
DECIDES TO ACCEPT THE
INEVITABLE.
TBB WORLD SURRENDERS TO RKILEY.
New York, July l.-The 'World' at
last has surrendered to Greeley, making
the surrender in the following editorial
remarks t
"We are reluctantly constrained to be
lieve that the national democratic conven
tion at Baltimore will nominate Horace
Greeley as the democratic candidate for
president. It seems tolerably olsar that
Greeley will have a twe-thlrds vote on the
rsi naiiou uur readers know now ear
nestly we have deprecated such a result,
bus as mis preposterous nomination teemi
fixed, we tuppote we mutt make, tbe best
of it. In tbe strenuous, opposition we
have thought it our duty to make, we
have merely exercised tho right which be
longs to every aemocratio journal ana
every democratic cltisen to freely canvass
the meritt of the propoied candidates, and
to oppose improper nominations up to tne
time when the authoritative action of the
national convention blndt the whole
parly. We nave been as freo to
Srotett against the nomination of
ir. Greeley at we were in 1868 to protest
againtt the nomination of Mr. Pendleton,
a gentleman whom we personally esteemed,
but whose greenback nerety foredoomed
tne party to dofeat if it had been to unwise
at to tolect him for itt ttandtrd-bearer;
and yet, if Mr. Pendleton had been nom
inated tour years ago, we snouia nave leu
bound by our loyalty to party to forbear
our remonstrances when the final decision
had been made. We were more success
ful than we can expect to be now. Mr.
Greeley is going to Baltimore without any
competitors. Mr. Hendrickt hat virtual
ly committed himself to Greeley by con
senting: to run as a democratic candidate
ror governor or Indiana in close conjunc
tfon with the Greeley movement. Gov.
ernor Seymour has publicly, and Chief
Justice Church privately indorsed the
strange proposal. Governor Randoph,
who to lone as there was any hope was its
most active and zealous opponont, has
given in. Mr. Thurman's friends and
Mr. Pendleton's friends make no sign
Mr. Kerr, who was perhaps the most
thoroughly disgusted of our able demo
cratic statesmen, has accepted the situation,
and even Mr. Voorhoes has withdrawn his
opposition. The retreat of the democratic
prest bat notbeen quite so complete. The
Boston 'Pott' Hartford 'Times' Phils
delphia ' Age ' Washington ' Patriot, ' and
several leading southern papers wbicb
scouted the Cincinnati nomination at first,
have, one by one. suocumbed to the in
evitable. The Chicago 'Timet,' Detroit
' Free Press' our able German contempo
rary, the 'Statu Zeltnne' alone remain-
ins: of the prominent democratic allies of
the world in opposing Mr. Greeley. Of
the disgusted Liberal Republicans, whote
disappointment and chagrin knew no

concluded that further opposition would
be fruitiest. Mr. Schurz, the ablest and
most eminent of them, has signified his in
tention to give a qualified support to Mr.
Greeley, though still holding last to hit
opinion that it wat a nomination
not nt to be made. Moreover,
we cannot ditcover in any quarter signs of
a lormiaaoie or even a respectable bolt
againtt thlt ttrange nomination. A lib
eral republican bolt againtt it wat at
tempted: in calling the Fifth Avenue Ho
tel conference, but that gathering resulted
in an Indorsement. We have no reason to
believe that a democratio bolt against what
now may be regarded as the certain ac
tion of tbe Baltimore convention would be
more successful. It is therefore a pretty
well settled fact that there will be but two
candidates in tbe field in this presidential
election, and that citizens must cbooso be
tween voting for Grant, voting for Gree
ley and staying away from the polls. For
our part we thai! advite no body to vote
for Grant, and between tbo remaining
alternative of voting for Greeley or stay
ing at bome we have no counsel to offer.
Our own duty and that of democratic citl-
zent may perbaps more clearly appear
after the canvass hat made tome progross.

Sir : Your letter informing me that tbe

by the preference tbut oxpreiied by the
representatives of to large and influential

tbe Democratic party. For nearly thirty
?ears I have shared its triumphs and de
eats,adhering to its fortunes, because I
contldered iu success essential to good
government, and to the elevation of the
laboring cImsos. Having been placed in
an important public position at a nominee
of that praty, I am bound in honor as
wen as oy inclination to suck by iu or-

encouraging news is receivod dally, at tbe

Greeley and Brown clubs have been form

with the br igntest of prospect!. A letter
from D. S. Burton, Richmond, Ind., jutt

spontaneous political fermentation. Thus,
at our little Spring Grove settlement, con

a specimen of tbe many hundreds of let

of Horace Greeley by tbe Baltimore con

so operate upon tbe minds of republicans
throughout tbe country as to virtually re-
Eudiate tbe nomination of Grant, and
ring to tbe support of Greeley the great

THE "OVATION'1 FIZZLE.
A COOL GREETING. TOR ORANT AT THE JUB
ILEE. Boston Correspondence of N. Y. World.
Into the presdnco of this great audience,
up the center aisle, marched General
Grant and his crowd. People stood up to
see him, climbed upon tne teats, craned
tholr necks and stared. That was all. A
violent effort lo get up an enthusiastic
scene wss made by some ileek gentleman
in tall black bati, who wore posted near
tbe center door at which he entered.
They swung their hats, jumped and yelled
to start a thunder of applause, but the
thunder didn't come. The effort died out
within forty feet of the door, without
awakening tbe faintest response from the
multitude, and in as thorough silence as it
is possible for 10 enormous
and uncomfortable multitude to
maintain, Grant and his
crow'd marched forward to their seaU.
The number present! variously estimated
from ilxty to eighty thouiand, including
chorus. Yet all his applause came from
partiei mentioned. He should be thank
ful that be got 10 much without having tbe
Post-office and Custom-house closed for
the occasion. " Your people seem rather
cold here, " remarked, doubtfully, one of
S residential party to a Bostonisn. "Ob,
o they 7" was tbe response. " Well, you
come back here the day Horace Greeley
comes to the Jubilee, and tee if they are.
Itii simply truth to state that such was
the sentiment echoed in all parts of the
building.
When the presidential party were seated
In a reserved piece in the center of the
house, they were found to consist of Grant,
Babcock. Porter, Dent, Fisb, Creswell,
Boutwelf, Robeson, Wilson, Loring,
Governor Jewell of Connecticut, and
several ladies. At they entered, the
United Statei marine band, tbe foreign
bands, the orchestra and the organ united
in "Hail to the .Chief," and after the cele
brated visitors were seated all the nolle
making element! of the itage, legitimately
belonging to the Jnbllee, were combined
to glvo a powerful effect to tho Handle
chorus, "See, the Conquering Hero Comes."
Tbo grand old piece was magnificently
rendered, but only received slight applause
and no demand for an encore. The less
conquering hero the better seemed tbe
prevailing impression of the audience.
