MIR. {. was received with round of applause, and
in short address sought to dsaJuse the public mind
of misrepresentation current, that either Thos
Corwin or himself had, at the recent Convention,
sought to iufuse Americanism into the platform
what he had done was to earnestly labor TO do no
more than to affirm the former resolves Of the Re.
publicans. Yet, under the force Of the determined
threats of a German, Mr.. jacob, modification Of
the resolution on the Naturalization question,
u, -F ...Ga-
was reconsidercd and the offensive language now In
the platform, was adopted This action was consid-
cred deliberate insult to the conservative element
of the Opposition Party. Our limits will not admit of
a protracted report.
Mr.. Probasco, from committee on resolutions,
presented the following:
PREAMBLE AND RESOLUTION.
The Republican party of Ohio In its recent Con.
yention, well by its resolves, as by its nomina-
tions, has shcwn itself subservent to the insoont
dctation Of foregnsm on the one hand, and the ar
rogant demands of tanatcism on the other thus as
suming ground both anti American aud sectional,
alike distaseful and offensive to Americans and Ma
The Democrats party has proved itself utterly
false to the great doctrine of Non; n;intervention,
by the unwarrantabc interference of its present Ad
nnstraton in the local affairs of our Territories,
for the purpose of suPpressng or pcryerng the pop
tered, and still encourages an undue foreign infu-
ence In the politics OF our country tor mere party
| in reckless and proligate extravaganza which ex.
ceeds any thing IN the history OF our country and
| gives great cause of alarm.
We therefore believe it to be the duty of tho Ameri-
! can Party (dlsowning all sympathy or cooperation
with either Of these pares to assume its proper and
| legitimate position of independence.
| Therefore, Resolved, That we recommend Mass
Convention of all the conservative citizens of Ohio,
to be held in Cincinnati on Wednesday, July 26th to
| nominate State ticket, which shall reflect the
opinion of all who are In favor Of sustaining an hon.
est and independent Judiciary, who in favor OF
an honest and faithful application of the doctrine OF
n-intervention by Congress- in the Vocal affairs
territories, who oppose an unwarrantaSe foreign
influence in our politics, and who dereLt to and
| under all circumstances will maintain the Integrity
of our Federal Union.
Mr. Frank Chambers wished to go further and ust
this occasion to establish National Conservative
party, Including In his programme a series of view,
in reference TO Tariff, Retrenchment, &C.; also, a,
to an extended term of residence in this country fol
foreigners than now provided before they arc admit
ted to citizenship.
These were finally withdrawn, it being suggested
that they would bo suitable matters for considera
ton when a Mass Convention of the State held
Scott Harrison, Esq, being called on, congratua
ted the people that the conservatives Of Ohio ha
rued their fellowship with extreme Republicans, an
for himself, had tears to shed at tho revelation
| now made of their intolerance and radicalsm. II
hoped that the American sentiment would again b
predominant in Ohio
| The resolution and preamble were adoptcd, an
tho President and Committee were authorized
