ted;
WHEREAS, In The present unfortunate crisis Of
the country il becomes necessary for men and pat-
n "a hD1H gttl EfA-p tf
order aud the Constitution, and against anarchy
and oppression.
Therefore the Republicans Of Nevada County
do hereby declare their unolterablc devotion TO the
Constitution and our Union, and We regard the
loss OF civil liberty as consequence of their de
struCtinp,
Resolved, That we cordially inlorsc the Admin
istratiop of Abraham Lincoln, and recognizing IN
hlm the head OF the Government, opposition to
hun would ieopardi1c The Union aud indirectly
give aid aud comfort 10 the cnVieS of the country;
we will sustain him IN nN efforts 20 put down re
belHpn aud restore order 90 the Republic
RcSoirct That We rocoSni@c IA the Republican
party the germ Of that policy which has given us
Overland Mall facilities which Is destined 10 link
the two Oceans by y trJus-cputincntal railroad,
md confer on our rising state otacr and iplumcr.
BILE hlrSt ngg,
Re,oirca, That national principles are not see.
tional, merely because, by the corruption Of pc J.
ltc'anS, they become iu process of time. advocated
one I'M one sect,oni td2t We regard sectional par
,ice, with sectional principles, as detrimental Co
the peace OF the country, and seeing the efforts OF
politicians all tending, IN long course Of years,
20 iayor one section aud its distinctive interests,
the ltepHhiiean party was formed to eomtcrtct
these efforts. and restore the national principles

RtSo're3, That The votcs Of men in nur late Icg-
stature, elected as National noAocratk, ON the
Union resolutions, and ia the election Of a l'uitel
states senator, demonstrate that there is largo
element IN the sO-caul- '."t"n Democratic party,
dubious position 10 the Union quos-
lion, and We deem that ill patriots are honnd ~
labor and connect their dtstiaies with the Ropub
lican party, that has no traitors or eJniitional
Union men in its ranks.
Resoired, That the platform, established az the
late Republican state Convention at Sacramento,
is on 50 liberal basis that no Union nan, not at
tached to ancient preiudices, names and obsolete
creeds can hes itate to stand upon il, aud We call
principles Of that platform and support the Union
