vention be entitled to seats on the floor.

rotary from each State, and also recon-
mended the rules be adopted and Mr.
Seymour escorted to the Chair.
Mr.. Seymour proceeded to the platform
amid applause. He returned his thanks
and counssled moderation, liberation
and harmony. He said the most i'm
portant questions would be forced on
the consideration of the Convention /;
some would be forced on it by the late
Chicago Convention. He discussed
briefly the Republican platform, and
accused that party Of violating its own
declarations against reputation and
unequal taxation, and then asserting
their solicitude for the soldiers and
sailors widows and orphans. He ac-
cused the now dominant party Of an
extravagant waste of the public moneys,
tainting the national credit and imped-
ing investigation, Of overwhelming the
laborer with taxation and breaking the
guarantee Of republican liberty. He
denied the assertion Of the Republican
Convention that the principles of the
Declaration of independence are now
sacred on every inch of American soil,
for in ten States of the Union the mill
tary power suppresses the civil law.
Governor Seymour closed his address
amid great cheering.

adopted, admitting delegates from the
Territories to honorary seats in the
Convention.
A large number Of resolutions were

ing the pay Of the soldiers and sailors
by paying them in gold or its equiva.

didates until after a platform has been

was taken by States.
A resolution was adopted indorsing
the recent proclamation Of amnesty.
