RESOLUTIONS.
Invoking earnestly, the favor Of God,
and relying confidently upon the intelli-
gence. the patriotism and the discri.nin-
ating justice of the pc pie, We, the del
egates of the Republican party in State
Convention assembled, submit TO the
candid and enlightened judgment of the
freemen Of Ohio the following declara-
zion of Republican principles and meas
Wes:
/. We adhere to the platform adopted
by the Republican Convention held at
Philadelphia in July 1776, and reafirm-
ed in June 1856, and solemnly conse
crate our political and moral powers to
support its doctrines.
2 We maintain the Union of the States
the Rights of the States and the Liber-
ties of the people.
3 We submit cheerfuily to The legiti-
mate and constitutional exercise Of the
powers OF the Federal Government; but
we protest against the arrest and vexa-

Commissioners, of our Judges, Sherilfs,
Justices of the Peace and private CHI
zens, for acts required BY State law, as
oppressive, ~tyrannical and unwarranta,

4. We insist that the lawful process
by the State Courts for the maintenance
of right, and the prosecution and pun

due execution and operation in this
Stale.
6. We condemn the doctrines of the
majority Of the FederalS Supreme Court
in the bred Scott case, as anti constitu-

Incompatible with State rights and des-
tructiVe of personal security.
7. We regard Slavery as a great evil
and wrong, even aggressive, constantly
mischevions, and prospectiyely fatal
both 10 Union and Liberty; and we
therefore earnestly oppose its extension
or encouragement by the Federal Gov
eminent.
s. W. concur with a vast majority Of
the people Of the free States, and with a
respectable portion of the people Of the
Slave States, in repiObaiion of the action
of the Federal Government, under the
control of the Slave Power, in breaking
down the barriers against slavery extern
sion provided BY the wisdom of our faith
crs. and in forcing Slavery into free
Territory under the fraudulent pretences
of the Nebraska Kansas Bill, in disre.
gard Of settled national policy and plain
Constitutional provisions.
8. We adhere cordially to the doc
trine of Popular Sovereignty as taught
in the Declaration Of independence, but
condemn as q gross p%erversion of that
doctrine the modern preteusion that one
