The PLATFORM adopted by the New
York democracy, in their convention at
Rochester, last week, receives unstinted
praise from all quarters. The New
York SIN (radical) endorses it in the
following unmistakable terms
The platform adoped unanimously at
Rochester, after free and full discussion. is
in marked contrast with that framed and
carried through under custom house dicta-
ton at Syracuse. 1t frankly accepts, as
the natural sequences Of the war, negro
emancipation, negro citizenship, and ne
gro suffrage. 1t does not confine its de-
nunciations of fraud and vcnality to its OPP
pOnents, but declares that ii views with in
dignation the corruption and cxtravs-
gance which have prevailed in this city,
and demands the punishment Of all par
Elephants therein upon whom guilt can be
fixed. 1t calls for thorough reform of
the city charter by the next legislature,
and specifies the main abuses which need
to be remedied. 1t recommends the adop-
ton Of the proposed amendments TO the
state constitution for preserving the purity
of the balot-box, and for Furnishing
bribery. These are the main points in the
platform relative to the pending crisis in
affairs of our city and state. The resolu-
tons are explicit and practical, and evil
IDENTIFY mean business.
Of the ticket put in nomination the
same paper says:
II is far stronger than that presented by
the Republicans, and, we presume, will be
elected. 1t will be voted for by large
body OF high.mindcd Republicans, who
