The Cincinnati Gazetts, Rep, in speaking
Of Fremont resignation Of his commission
as Major General, says:
Whatever may be thought Of the eager
readiness thus displayed to get the man out
OF the service who had so much to 10 with
the organization Of the party that put the
present administration in power, there is
one lesson this resignation should not fail to
teach. It is n very significant example for
Major General George b. Mcclellan 1t re-
mains to be seen whether that officer, after
receiving the nomination at Chicago, will be
equally prompt to tender his resignation.
"Atter receiving the nomination at Chica-
GO it will be time enough to discuss the

now the significant example presents itself

Cleveland and baltimore Pint.
forms.

We remarked tie other day that III,
Cleveland and Baltimore conventions ha,
reversed places, so lar as regards their re
spectivc representations Of the Conscrvativ,
and Radical wings Of the Republican part,
of the country. We had not at that lime
read the platform of the Baltimore conven
ton. Since reading it, we have only been
confirmed in the original opinion. Where
the two platforms differ at all, the difference
is decidedly IN favor of that adopted at
Cleveland. In the Cleveland resolutions
there are but three planks which can be at
all called radical, to-wit:
3. That the rebellion must be supp. csscd
by force Of arms, md rithout consl,romise
.. That the rebellion has DESTROYED slay-
cry, and the Federal constitution should be
amended, to prohibit its rs-tstabisshmeat and
70 secure 70 all men dJsoiut. equality before
tic lau.
IL. That the confscajion Of the lands OF
tie rs5e's, and their distribution an,ony tie
sotdiers and actual settlers, is an act II jus-
tice.
The last quoted resolution was not adopt
ed with unanimity, doubts in regard to its
propriety and policy having been expressed
in the convention. Gen. Fremont, in his
letter of acceptance, gravcly excerpts this
resolution from the general approval he
gives to the others, ard he offers some con-
sideraf,ccns upon it that are cmnen.ly Just
and conservative.
The third resolution Of the Cleveland
convention finds its counterpart in the frs.
and second Of the Baltimore convention.
not only in regard to quelling the rebellion
by force Of arms, but also in relation to snch
settlement without compromise. The third
resolution Of the Baltimore platform, like
the fifth ofthc Cleveland platform, advocates
an amendment Of the Constitution forever
prohibiting slavery SO far, then, there is
no difference between the two crecds But
the Baltimore platform goes further it ar.
ralgns slavery as the cause and present
strength Of the rebellion, while the other as
serts that the rebellion has already DESTROYED
slavery. II upholds and maintains the acts
and proclamations Of the Government, On
the subject Of slavery. This, We suppose
Includes the emancipation proclamation tho
proclamation in regard to confiscation ,ho
amnesty proclamation, &c. The R,,t;mo.,
platform approves and applauds the meas.
