not mvh influence the democratic parry; but have
always had influence enough 10 defeat my nomination,
aAd my friends show tkeir friendship Tor me by following
my wishes in regard 70 the disposition Of myself person
ally il notorious 70 these republicans that dd
not desire the odice, and, they wished 70 avoid con-
test all they had 20 do was nominate the present
bic Incumbent and put him on their ticket with the rest
Of their nominees and should nave gwen nlm Cofo's y
Of the necessity Of avoiding division in the North
Al this me Wow OF the perfectly satisfactory nature
ecnesaiy acceptable to the republicans why was that
callod upon TO 90 into the exciting campaign at
this time and Why II that The friends Of President
johnson we're 10 be divided at this election there
entire unanmMy OF. sentiment throughout the
State Of New York in his support There must DC some
explanation Of this division OF the party The demo-
crais had shown extreme liberaty. II was said that
they had made complete surrender. Why, then, not
receive surrenders / know they would not Ike the
South surrcndcr hut they might at least allow us TO
do IL Ii We wished. We had shown the strongest ev
sncs Of our friendship BY they say aomon ss
audgsd that the evidence Of nature and OF affection in
the mother was exhibited by being willing to divide the
child and surrender the whole. lIaughter) We were
ready then and willing TO do what they oil SAID was
right and proper to do.
j met MIR. Depew as ! was going down on tho boat
a few days after convention, and inquired OF
him, or rather he told me. that It was the intention
OF the republicans to nominate a clean uckot--that
Is term they give TO describe the tickets they usu-
ally nominate--as TO their cleanliness do not wish
10 express opin0n--that they were to have Hair
staid-up fight Depew supposed in that stand 3p
fight he would be the first killed. and killed by his
own friends tAppausc) That not his idea Of fair
stand up light; and he further thought that they would
not nominate military men, became he doubted whether
they had amy military man or sufficient distinction ana
sufficiently known abroad TO compete with General slo
cam (Cheers) mention these facts, because had
such acquaintance with him as authorized him to
make conndant OF me- Besides / have told these re-
pubicaps since was boy, that If they have any
to keep they must not tell them TO me- Cheers
nspaw ai hn he saoI shog S was geh1
sufficiently abroad While doing justice TO his military
ability, il was entirely obvious to me, and moth
ing that fell from Depew led me to believe 10
the contrary, that the first entrance Of Barlow
civil life would be sgnazed by the death Of Depew.
They nominated the ticket; their convention
trolled by Weed Raymond and Seward, and they nomi
mated ticket For what purpose? Not TO strengthen
President johnson, for that OF course could bo only
by uniting with the friends of Johnson and they
did not nominate the ticket for the sake OF sustaining
Johnsons platform, for shall show you in few
mcnls that they did such thing. They laid down
platform OF their own, TO which wish to call their at
tention. They passed resolution upon the subject Of
the restoration Of the government and of the south
aud think you will be able 10 see, as read it briefly 10
ycu that they took PARTICULAR pains TO Incorporate into
tho leey e Tic iapubfcans ,ha, the Southern states
not 10 be admitted into the Union until they allow
the black people all Now that snot here
II is spread throughout two resolutions. IL requires
little attention to perseivc u; but think you VIII
be able 10 do so without any difficulty They say
Resolved That approve emnenty wise and just tho
sentiments Of Kindness and confidence which ricsldeat
lately in rebellion who accept the perpeination the
aud tie perpetual prohibition Of slavery rs the legitimate
initial steps which he has taken towards relaxing the bonds
,heir people mi and complete eoniroi Of sheir lo
just ns soon be found compatible with the peserva
slavery aud the umont Of the Constitutional obg tions
the national authority guarantee every State rcpub
lean form Of government.
Now tie theory OF the republicans is that State in
which slavery exists s not republican form OF govern
mcnt and thai when the Southern States with any
form or slavery or with prohibition OF the right of
blacks 10 vote, they do not have republican form OF
government will show YOU that either idea IL in their
nlnfin hpv AM will N
Congress can comply with its duty to guaran-
tee every State republican form Of government,
and they say confidently look, under his Johnsons)
Wise and patriotic administration, TO the establishment
o more cordial relations, greater mutual respect and
stronger interest in each others welfare between the
Northern and Southern States than have hitherto pre-
vailed, and TO all measures tending 10 the attainment OF
these just and benecen ends we pledge him our cordial
and hearty support Now, what Is republican form OF
govenmeoty Why they tell us in the next resolution
Resolved, That regard the several States of this Union
MI led to he BY the same constitution and that Whenever
II snail be deemed compatible with the public safety 70
their rights win be done IN the fai and tho

Windy and wordy these resolutions are, shall

man the Tim 81 made this platform with hs negro in
II, hop,nr that il might be visic 10 the pcopc or this
STATE. He knew 1t was quito visible To the men In the
West, the republicans who insist upon having
this platform. Tie Chicago Tst~H saw u dis
tincy, and hailed il with exuliaon IL was
small to be sure, but u was homuwaiss that would
grow when Mr. seward IL TO be trottc onas the Prcs
den.ia candidate against Mr. Johnson There was a
little NOR To that platform You arc aware that seward
has committed himself against the Monroe doctrine

Nothing under htHvens Ion are no doubt familiar
with the fact that when both houses Of Congress
resolved that this government Of NlNmiiian In

bring forward Seward as the Presidential candidate and
10 make the Seward party the dominant party IN the city
of New York IN opposition to the democratic Jackson
party Of this state. t,hccrsl Now gentlemen I have
gore with some particularly through this state.
mrnt, which trust may not have been
tedious, with view OF showing what was
intended by ibis party say that This H. contet be-
the party which claims that before the Southern
States back INTO the Jnion they shall authorize
the blacks 10 vote and the party that stands with Proa
dent johnson, Insisting TINT hot question of local
regulation by the State governments, ard whichever way
they shall decide they shall came hack into the Union
