In demanding these measures and reforms
we arraign the Radical party for its disregard
of right, and the unparalleled oppression and
tyranny which have maVk'd its career. After
the' most. ilermr -and" tmanfmoos pledge of
both Hones of ConjjreM to prosecute the
war exclusively for the maintenance of the
Government and the preservation of the Uu-
lon under the fjonstitutton, it has repeatedly
violated that most sacred pledtre. under which
alone was rallied that noble volunteer army
wh;ch carried our flair to victory.
Instead of restoring tfite Union, it has, so
far as is ia tts power, dissolved it: and sub
jr?cted ten States, in lime of profound peace,

It lias nullified the njfht of trial jury; it

GairrLatsx: When in the city of New
York, on the 1 lib of July, in tbe presence of
a vast multitude, on behall of the National
Democratic Convention, you tendered to un
its unanimous nomination as their candidate
lor the office of President ol the Uuited State,
I stated I bad no words adequate to express
uiy graliudu fur the good will aud kindness
which that body had shown lo me. 1st Hum
iliation wa unsought and unexpected. It was
my ambition to take an active part from
which I a.n imw excluded iu the L-ic.it miuc-
gle goiug on for the restoration ol good liov
ertiment, of peace and prosperity to onr coun
try. Jjul 1 bave been caught up by the over
whelming tide which ia bearing the country on
o a great political change, aud I dud uiyaell
unable to resist its pressure.
l ou have also given me a copy of Ibe re
solutions put forth by the Convention showinjr
la poitiou upon all the great questious w1ih.Ii
now agitate the couutrv. As the presiding
llicer of that Convention, I am familiar with
their scope and impui t. As one ol its mem
bers, I ..iu a party to their terms. They are
in accord with my views, and I stand ufion
them In the canvass upon whieh sr am now
entering, and I shall strive to carry them nut
in luture, wherever 1 may be placed, in pohti-
al or private hie.
I then staled that I would send yon these
word- of acceptance in a letter, as is (he cus
tomary form. I see no reasou, upon reflection,
to change oe qualify the terms ol my approval
of the resolutions of the Convention I have
delayed tbe mere formal act of committing to
you in writing wbut I thus publiily said, lor
purpose of seeing what light tin notion (.'mi
gress would throw upon the iuteress of the
countrv" fts auts 3rt etw f ft awaiifi iiimi 11
the Convention show an aLrm U-st a thai ge
of political power will give to the people wlmi
they ought to have a dear statement ol vlia
has been done with ths money drawu froui
them during the past eight yens. ThoughiPd
men will sec that mere nave ueen wrongs in
the huancial inanng -iiii'.it wineli iiueiieiii
siettt hum the aahllM -kuwWJodHU. The jCuu-
icssionnl party hasiio: only iljied itsd m'li
military power, whicii is (. jc brought to bear
directly upon the elition - in many States, hut
it also holds itself in perpetual se.-sion, with
the avowed purpose ol making such laws as
t shall see fit, in vitw of the elections which
Will take place within a within a lew weeks.
It did not, therefore, adjourn, but took a re
cess to Meet agatn, if its partisan interests
should demand its reassembling. Never before
in the history of our cohntry has Congress
thus taken a menacing nttitude toward its
electors. Under its influence, some of Ihe
Slates organized by it agents ate proposing
to deprive the people ol the right to vote for
Presidential electors, and the first bold steps
are taken to destroy the rightl suffrage.
It is not strange, thcretore, that thought!!
men see in such action the proof that there
are, with those who shape the policy oi tne
Republican party, motives stronger and deeper
than the mere wish to hold political power
that there is a dread of some exposure, whieh
drives them on to acts desperate and impolitic
arrests, and Many of the ablest leaders and journals of the

gives just weight to the populai will, ils dis
tinguishing feature is that it seeks to protect
the rights f minorities; its greatest glory is
thsi it nuts restraints upon power: it gives
force and form lo those maxims and principles
of civil liberty for which the martyrs of free
dom have sti-uegh-d through ages : it declares
the right "of the people ' to be secure in Iheir
persons, houses, papers and effect s against un
