We gave last week the platfornsof the
Republican party of Ohio. Below viii
be found the platform of the same party,
held on the same day, the 18th of July,
at indianapolis, Indiana. There was an
immense number of people in attendance
at the convention from all parts of the
State. and the platform of principle was
adopted By acclamation, without a dis
sentihg voice Three cheers for Indi-
ana -
Rcsolged, That we cordially re-aflirm
adj the principles set forth in the pream-
bic and resolutions adopted by the Re-
publican or Peoples Convention, held in
his city one year ago this day, and as
.apprcpriate to this occasion, We re-adopt
TIE following part thereof:-
Hhereos, We, The ireemen of Indiana,
without respectto party, and actuated by
"a common devotion TO our Republic, aud
"a common reverence for its founders,
have assembled ourselves together In
commemoration of the passage of the or
dinance of July 18Th, 1897, consecratiDg
the n. w. Territory to freedom, and
whereas the unanimous adoption of said
ordinance By the Representatives of al
the Safes in the Union atthat atdate, clear
'ly eyinees that opposition to the extern
sion of slavery. to the extent of constitu-
tional power, was the fixed policy of our
fathers: and whereas we regard the re-
cent repeal of tie 9th Section of the
/" Missouri Compromise as q gross and
wanton vielation of the faith ofthe Union,
plighted to a solemn compact restricting
the extension of slavery. Therefore,
Resofpsd, That We are rncempromis-
ingly opposed to the extension of slavery;
and further that we utterly repudiate the
platform of principles adopted by the
self-styied Democratic Convention, on
the 24tll day. May last, endorsing aud
approving the Kansas Nebraska iniquity.
ResoLeed, That we will waive all form
er party predictions, and, in concert by
all lawful means, seek to pace every
branch of the Federal Government IN
the hands of men who will assert the
rights of freedom, restore the Missouri
Compromise, and refuse, under all elf
earastal.ces. to tolerate the extension Of
slavery.

ONE THING OR OTHER.

The business year of Minnesota was Inaugural
ted on Saturday last, by the departure of the 'Lu
ella" from our Lcvee for Red Wing, with a crowd
cd deck and cabin. A large crowd Of men, wo
men and children, attracted by the more than
Orphcan music of the steam whistle, assembled to
witness the opening ceremonies. The usual chaos
Of Eorscs, carts and pugnacious draymcn, con-
tributed to the excitcmcnts of the scene. a high
wind, steamboat collision, and q fight, crowned
the ecat of the occasion. The s'Globe'' started
in the afternoon of Sunday with heavy load Of
freight and passengers, for Redwood, on the
Minnesota River.
On Sunday night the &c Luclla" returned with
large number of passengers who had been brought
up from Galena rs far the foot Of the Lake,
where the ice still opposes an mistaken barrier
to navigation. The intervening distance between
tac head and the foot of the Lake, (somc twenty
mies,) was crossed by these cntcrprisng travellers
on foot.
A universal chcerfulncss co exists with con-
tinued though mitigated st inscncy in the money
market. Never were the signs of the times more
suspicious for Minnesota. The observations of
intelligent citizens just returned from the East,
cOnnrm inc prophecy OF an unprecedented lmmi-
grafton to our territory during the current year.
The Westward movement was never general or
more intelligently directed, and Minnesota has ac-
quired some of the prominence she deserves as
field of investment and theatre of enterprise.
The Pioneer notices significant fact in our
commercial growth. 1t is that our merchants,
warned by the experience of last year, have pur
chased twice the amount of stock with which they
eked out the trade of last Spring, which showed
like increase over the trade of the year prece-
ding. We are progressing, therefore, in an arith-
metica ratio of prosperity, while the rapid devel
opement of the agricultural interest is widening
the basis and vitalizing the elements of our COM
mercial growth.
