The RESOLUTIONS.

.e The platform adopted by the Union Ma
tional Convention is frank statement of
the principles upon which the Union par
ty rests its claims to the confidence of the
people. There is no duplicity about it,
no evasion of real issues, and not the slight
! est appeal in single line to party preju-
dice or party malevolence. 1t is manly
sltterance Of the views of the Union party
npon the great questions of the day, and
OF the ends it seeks to attain. Its fea-
tures may be briefly summed up thus:
The assertion of the belief that it is the
highest duty of the American citizen to
maintain the integrity of the Union, ap-
8 probation of the efforts of the Govern
ment to COMPEL rebellious citizens to re-
turn to their just allegiance to the Consti-
sutton and laws of the United States;
isapprobation, also, of the acts and procla
nation by which the Government in its
HAown defense has aimed death blow at sla-
yerv, the cause and strength of the Re-
bcllion, declaration in favor of the alb
olitlon of slavery by constitutional amend
ments; thanks to our brave soldiers and
sailors; Endorsement of the policy of en-
ploying negro soldiers to assist in saving
the Union; an assertion of the duty of
the Gorernment to give to those soldiers
the iuIl protection of the laws of war; !;
the lo-tcriag and encouragement of for
clsh om'lration; The speedy construction
OF aralroad 20 the Pacific the keeping
lnvi1iate ct the national faith, pledged
for the redemption Of the public debt, and
the re-asseilon of the Monroe Doctrine.
To which IS a5dednn expression of con-
fidence IN the President, and of the ne
cessity of harmony in the national caun-
ciis The question of reconstruction was
not referrci to. That is question which
!, can only be viewed properly in the light
of event to occur hereafter. aud the Con-
yention was not composed of prophets.
The platform is one that will command
the hearty approval and earnest support
of all true friends of the Union. It is a
sras platform, and oar candidates have
been placed upon it. Abraham Lincoln
and Andrew Johnston representthe party
that is in favorof vigorous prosecution
of the war until the Union is restored and
all who are not for them are practically
against that oonsummation. Practically,
we say, for any and all opposing to the
election of the. candidates above mention
ed is calculated in the nature of things
to encourage the South to continue its eff
forts to desrtoy the Union, and to assist
IN transferring the Government to those
