The republican mayor of Chicago (Long
John) says, in his Democrat, of the 18th
inst:
Nine-tenths Of the Chicago people are for
the nomination of VIM II. Seward for presi-
dent; and we honestly believe that tick ct
, composed of Seward and Lincoln, will be
the strongest that could be run in illinois,
/ Our Chicago politicians had better leave
the nomination of the ticket for president
and vice president to the delegates.
! We notice quite number of men sit
ting around and abusing Gov. Seward, who
but few days ago were applying to get on
the police of this city, and complaining OF
! tie utter restitution of themselves and
families-They have now all got new suits
! Of clothes to their backs; and we know
not which of the two following questions
is the most difficult to answer First, why
/ should such men be abusing Gov. Seward
Second, where did they get their Few

More Observation-Disclosures Lincoln
DemOnst alton.

The Republicans of Ottawa were so much
chagrined and disappointed at the failure
Of their demonstration on Friday evening
of last week, that they determined to
give the matter second trial So large
handbills were got out and circulated in
all directions inviting the whole County to
come to Ottawa on Thursday evening Of
this week and participate in a monster
meeting and torch light procession. The
result was', more general turn out, and a
demonstration nearly equal TO the Demo
cratic jubilee on the election Of Mayor
Walker.
Some three or four hundred persons, of
all shades of politics, gathered in the
Court House yard, on the evening indica-
ted, in pursuance Of this urgent call, and
were addressed by some OF the Ottawa
lawyers-B c. Cook. W. III. l.. Wallace
and W. Bushnell, Esqrs. A procession
was then formed, numbering some 500
torches, OF which about 80 had come from
the south side of the river, brought by a
Nermillion delegation, we were informed
III plOttSSIcIl ere tlSO Il
some huge wooden wedges, and rail, it,
tended rs suggestive, we presume, Of sun
dry free rides to which abolition leaders
are occasionally treated There was also
a lumber wagon surmounted by a boat,
/ suggestive of course, of a voyage up a GER
tain saline stream. This boat was deci-
dedly happy thought, and the practice
of getting up such contrivances for all Lin
| coin professions should be encouraged. as
it cannot fail to leave an abundant supply
on hand after the election, when the party
will need them.
The procession marched around the
streets for IN hour or more there was a
respectable accompaniment Of shouting
for Lincoln, some lager beer was punished
the lights gradually died out, and SO the
show came to an end about the sober hour
of twelve

y're Chicago Platform.

We give the resolutions entire on our
outside form, as passed at the recent re-
publican convention at Chicago. We pro
nouuced them in our last batch Of I'M
meaning generalities, and on carefully re-
perusing them, we find nO cause 10 change
our mind. They mean anything or moth
ing just as the various factions or flag ends
of that party may find it convenient to
construe them. In Northern Illinois, and
in the Western Reserve in Ohio, the 2nd
resolution will be quoted to maintain the
doctrine of " personal liberty and negro
equality, while the 18th resolution will be
rs readily quoted in other quarters to show
that the republican party recognize fully
the relation of master and slave, and the
right of the master to the recovery OF his
runaway slaves under the fugitive slave
law. The same 18th resolution also pro,
fesses sacred regard for the rights OF all
the States. while the Sth resolution utter
ly denies to the people Of one half the
States of the confederacy the right to en-
ter any OF the territories 18th their prop
erty, no matter what may be the wishes OF
the people themselves Of those territories
on the subject Equality of the States
is thus made to mean, in its application to
new States, that having been kept free
from slavery by the careful exclusion of
the southern people until they are ready
for admission into the Union, they may
then come in as equals Of the Northern,
but never as equals Of the Southern States
But the most ridiculously unmeaning and
pointless of all is the 18th, or tariff resolu-
ton We should like to see the man, be
he the most violent free trade or most I'll
ira high tariff man whose conscience would
not allow him to vote for that resolution
1t was by such gull that the convention
expected to catch the vote Of the tariff
men of Pennsy lyania.
The resolutions, however, are deserving
of little attention. They will cut no figure
in the contest With the exception of the
assertion of the single principle, a paradox
in its very terms, that Congress must ex-
clude, but has noright to authorize slavery
in the territories, the resolutions assert
nothing but what any other party is equal
L. prepared to affirm; and they cannot,
therefore, as they will, in no case be APP
pealed to- TO show what are the real senti-
1nents, objects, and aims of the republican
party-information which must be gained
from other sources

Impending War.

1t seems to lie generally conceded BY the
hest Washington authorities, that the JuareZ-
Ocampo Treaty will be defeated in the Sem
ate.
What is to follow?
The Liberal party in Mexico will go to the
wall. The moral support. and the material
aid, which this Treaty would have given il, ,
in exchange for valuable commercial, terri
torial, and other privileges, would have en-
abled it to maintain its position at Vera
Cruz. Without them it will be driven from
there, ere lOng,-and with Vera Cruz in Mi
ramOn's possession, there are many who be-
lieve war with Mexico is inevitable, for reas-
ons so well understood by all, that they need
not be repeated here.
This is the prospect on the Gulf Coast
On the frontier the prospect is stall more
threatening.
The Governor of Texas, with her Senators
in Congress, have given formal notice. that
the Mexican outrages on the Rio Grande
frontier ale no longer to be tolerated, aud
! that, unless the general government order a
regiment of troops for their protection at
once. Texas herself will take the response
| blity,-and the responsibility, due notice is
given, will include the seizure and holding
| of one or more of the adjoining Mexican
States. When ruffians cross over the bound
airy line, and strip women on American soil,
and then turn them loose. the representa-
of Texas think it is time to do something
and if they so think, who can blame theml
Mr.. Fessenden, of Maine, Mr.. Hale, of New
Hampshire, and the Republicans generally,
resist the demand of Texas for protection
but Notwithstanding the resistance, an amend
meudment to the Military Academy bill, APP
propriating trife over million of dollars
for equpping the regiment asked for, has
beeureferred to the appropriate Committee.
Ii the Committee report favoraby, aud the
troops are speedily marched off to the from
tier,-we may be able TO preserve the peace
in that qnarter,-but if the Republicans ill.,
sist upon rejecting the Treaty,-depend upon
it.-war is about certain as anything flu
ture eau 6e. 1t is said that one. two or three
of the Democrats are opposed TO the Treaty.
But, no matter it is certain that the Republi-
can vote must eventually decide its fate
and as, upon that decision. rests the momen-
tous issue, OF Peace, or War,-let there be
no lodging the esponsibilty.-N. Y. EzpIess

NEW PIANos.-Mr. REED, on Church Street,
opposite the new Masonic Hall, has just re-
ccived another lot of splendid instruments,
consisting of full grand, semi grand, aud
parlor grand pianos, to which he would in

mandatory OF ALBERT w. LADD & Co, No.

-DIcK TINro," the weII-known Paris cor
respondent of the New York Times, writes as
follows, in his letter dated Paris. August SD.
1855, of one of McSsrs. LADD 4 Co.'S pianos /:
al mentioned two months ago that was
confident the piano sent by A. w. LADD 4
Co. of Boston, TO the exposition, would be
found worthy of prize by the jury. l am
happy to say that this daring opiuion-so
daring that the French would have hooted
Mt it-has been justified by the event. The
examination Of the pianos sent--and they
numbered over three hundred-was the first
TO commence. and the awards were made last
week. The specimen in question obtained u
'frst class medal" which is altogether the
most significant result that possibly can be

Its assets on the first of january, 1860. were
nearly one million aud a half of dollars, and
ihe premium receipts. for the year 1860 will
probably reach three quarters of a million
