rur consEnrArIrE pLATroRM

Since the DAY succeeding The Conserva.
tive State Convention, we have not referred
to the platform Of principles put forth as
the embodiment Of the sentiments and
purposes OF the voters opposed to a longer
continuance of Radical domination in
this State. In his letter accepting the
nomination for Governor, Mr. Etheridge
gave it his cordial and entire approval,
Upon it he proposes to conduct the can
vass We herewith append it, that il may
he read Of all men and commend it as
conservative in the true sense Of the
word, and as most complete yindication
Of the Conservative party from the cal
umny and detraction to which its candi-
dates are being subjected.
1t is conservative Of the Union, and OF
the constitution in its entirety; of peace
and civil law; of just and wise legisla-
tioai of all the rights, political and civil,
Of every citizen of whatever color OF
station in life of the national credit; OF
the State credit; Of the liberties Of the
citizen against every eneroachment
What more does an American ciizen
desire than the preservation Of these
blessings, and a stable government made
by the people, under which they may be
enjoyed, and transmitted unimpaired to
pOsterity ? The men who lead the Cons
sentative party have solemnly and pub
licly declared these to be their objects.
They are men Of character and men of
honor. Who can successfully impeach
their truth and integrity, and say that
under cover of these plain, frank words,
they mean rebellion and sedition?
We, the Conservative Union men OF
Tennessee, adopt the following platform of
principles -
lst. We are in favor of the Union of
the States, under the constitution of the
United States, and we pledge ourselves to
support and defend the same.
ID. We are the friends OF peace and
civil law, and that these great objects can
be best promoted by legislation recognizing
equal and exact justice TO all-exclusiVe
privileges TO none.
Sd. We are in favor of immediate resto-
ration of our disfranchsed fellow-citizens
to all rights, privileges and immunities of
full and complete citizenship.
4th. That our colored fellow-citizens, be-
ing now citizens of the United States and
citizens of the State of Tennessee and
voters of this State, are entitled TO all the
rights and privileges of citizens under the
laws and constitution of the United States
and of the State Of Tennessee. s
9Th. Wea are opposed to the reputation
of the national debt, and are in favor Of
equal taxation as the proper method of
paying the same. s-- s-ssst
9th. That the establishment of stand
ing army in our State, in time of peace, is
fragrant and dangerous encroachment
upon the rights and liberties of the citizen,
heavily oppressive TO the taxpayer, and
evidently designed to oVerawe voters at the
ballot box. ...r....
9TH. We cordially approve of the patri-
otto efforts of Andrew johnson, President
of the United States, in defending the con-
stition, preserving the union Of the States,
and maintaining the supremacy of the
laws.

NEw YORK, May 1.-The steamer Per
STA, from Liverpool on the Goth and Queens
town on the Dist, arrived this morning.
The London Times city article of the
10Th says: Heavy quotations from Berlin
caused renewed decline in consols, accom-
panied BY fresh panic. Foreign stock,
are lower by one per cent Judging from
the effect of each adverse rumor in Berlin
or Paris, the impression would seem TO be
entertained that any rupture between
France and Germany would be the signal
for every nation in the world to repudiate
their obligations.
The Morning Herald says it is init
mated that much feeling at Berlin was
produced by the threat of Bismark to re-
sign, the King of Prussia being disposed to
force war at all hazards.
The Times correspondent states that a
private letter from Berlin says Rismark
recently declared that it was impossible for
him to make concessions in regard to Lux
embourF. He could not consent to its men,
tralization, OF withdraw Prussian troops
from the fortress, or admit the question
open 10 negotiation, and even If Prussia
we're willing, Germany would not hear
20 it.
There is a vague rumor that the King of
Prussia was at the Paris Exposition. The
Times editorially says nothing at this mo-
ment could be more significant than the
speech with which the King OF Prussia
closed the first session Of the North Ger
man Parliament All reticence is now
cast aside, and whatever importsnce France
aud Austria may attach to the treaty made
al Berlin, neither the sovereign nor people
deem the German national unity 8 matter
with which foreign powers have any bust
ness 10 concern themselves.
