A GLORIOUS PLATFORM ADOPTED.

Pursuant to O call of the Democratic State
Central Committee, the representatives Of the
Democracy and other Union men of the several
counties of the State of Ohio, assembled In Con-
venton, at the east front of the State House,
In the city of Columbus, on Thursday, June
llth, 1863, at ten and half O'Clock A. M. The

MINIS, Chairman of the Democratic State Central

directed {. Z. IN N nunioate copy Of this resolu-
tIon to Gov. Seymour.
10. That the establishment of O military
government over loyal States, where war does
not exist, to supsrsede the civil authorities and
suppress the freedom Of speech and of the press,
and to interfere with the elective franchise, 10
not only subversive Of the Constitution, and
the sovereignty of the States, but the actual
Inauguration OF revolution.
20 That II is the sworn duty OF the Cover
nor Of the State to protect her citizens 10 the
enjoyment and exercise of all their conslitu-
tional rights, and We have beheld with deep
humiliation and regret, not only the failure OF
David Tod, Governor Of Ohio, TO perform that
duty, but what is still worse his actipe partic-
pations In the violation Of those rights.
81. That we deDoupce as trai ofs to the
country the Abolition JacObins who are seek
Ing to bring about civil war in the loyal States,
with the view OF turning, If possible, the bayc-
nets of the srmy against the breasts OF the faith
ers, brothers and friends of the soldiers, and
subjecting those States to military aurveil-
lance and dominion.
22 That We denounce, as llbelers of the
Democratic party and enemies of their country,
the men who ore engaged In representing the
Democratic party % wanting in sympathy with
our soldiers In the field. 1t is base slarder
upon human nature to assert that Democrats
who have hundreds Of thousands Of brothers
and sons in the army, do not sympathize with
them--and 1t is On outage upon the Democratic
party, that has always stood BY the country, to
assert that 1t 10 not the friend of its gallant de-
tenders.
90. That the conduct of Bigadier General
Mason, tho military commsndant at Columbus,
and Of the officer commanding the provost
guard, 10 preventing all appearance Of military
restraint upon the proceedings of this Conven-
ton, show that they have q just appreciation Of
the Constitution OF their country and the rights
of the people-and that they are wise and
patriotic officers; and that their conduct on
this occasion is in striking contrast with the
contrary conduc! Of the military authorities
upon the occasion OF the late Democratic meet
Ing at indianapolis. And We take pleasure 10
expressing our confidence in Gen. Mason, and
the officers and soldiers under his command.
The Convention then adjourned, with three
cheers for the nominees, three ior tho Consti-
tuition, and three for the Union.

PLATFORM OF TIE DEMOCRACY OF

PREAMBLE.
The Democratic party has ever been, and We,
is, O Law abiding party. 1t asks nothing but ite
rights under the CONSTITUTE ion and the laws II
resorts to no violation Of either; II countenanoee
no violation of either. II has right to all tae
guarantees OF public and private liberty, and
OF property, contained in our fundamental laws,
aud ID will surrender not one of them. Il has
the right to discuss public measures, and will
discusa them. 1t has the right to propose and
advocate that policy which 1t deems best for the
nation, and It will exercise that right. It has 0
right to have lie policy passed upon by the peo.
pie at peaceable and untIammelled elections,
aud It will maintain that right. If found in q
minority II yields obedience to oil lawful rule
Of the majority; If II be the majority itself, il
claims that its lawful will be respected. Wheth-
or In majority or minority, il obeys oil laws
that are in force. Taose that 10 dislIkes, II
seeks TO overthrow, not by violence, but by o
legitimate repeal. Those that IL proposes, II
seeks to carry not by force but by legal enact
ment. And what 1t doel In all these respects
It demands, and has right to demand, that al
Others shall do. They owe the same obedience
to the Consultation and the laws that Demo
