Union RepubIIcan PlatfOrm.

The following is the platform adopt
ed by the Republican Convention, at
Chicago, on Thursday the 21st day of.
May, 1868.
The National Republican party of
the United States, assembled 10 Ma.
tional Convention In the city of Chi
cagc, on the Goth day of May, 1868,
make the following declaration of
principles:
/. We congratulate the country on
the assured ueees Of the reconstrue-
ton policy of Congress as evinced by
fhe adoption, 10 a majority of the
States lately in rebellion, of COnsti-
buttons securing equal civil and polit-
ieallrights to all; aud we regard 1t
as the duty of the Government to sus-
tain those institutions, andi to pre-
vent the people of such States from
being RENTED TO a state Of anarchy.
2 The guarantee rby Congress Of
equal suffrage to all loyal men 10 the
South was demanded by every con-
sideration of public safety, of graft
tude, and must be maintained while
the question of suffrage In all the
loyal States properly belongs 10 the
people of-those States.
>. We U6uOOuce al tOEDS " t6pa-
diation as national crimes, and the
national honor requires the payment
of the public Indebtedness, IL the
utmost good faith, to all creditors. at
homerand abroad, Hot only according
TO the letter but the spiritot the laws
under which it was contracted. &
A. It is cue to the labor of the ma
rtion-tbat taxation should DE eQTaljzed
aud reduced as rapidly as our nation
al taith-wdl permit.
8. The national debt, contracted
as it has been. for the preservation Of
the Union fer ali time 70 come, should
be extended over a fair period for
redemption; and it IS the duty OF
Congress 10 reduce the rate of interest
thereon, wherever it can honestly be
! done.
