| Vice President.
The undersigned, constituting the National
Committee designated by the Convention
held at Chicago on the Goth of May, 1868,
| hereby call Convention of the Union Re.
publican party at the city of Philadelphia,
on Wednesday, the 9th Of June next, at II
o'clock noon, for the purpose of nominating
candidates for the offices of President and
Vice President of the United States.
| Each State is authorized to be represented
in the Convention by delegates equal to twice
the number of Senators and Representatives
| to which it will be entitled in the next Ma
tional Congress, and each organized Territory
| is authorized to send two Delegates. :
In calling this Convention, the Committee
remind the country that the promises of the
Union Republican Convention of 1868 have
been fulfilled. The States lately in rebellion
have been restored to their former relations
with the Governments; the laws of the coun-
try have been faithfully executed; public
faith has been preserved, and the national
credit firmly established. Government econ
omy has been illustrated by the reduction,
at the same time, of the public debt and of
taxation, and the funding of the national
debt at a lower rate of interest has been in
augurated. The rights of naturalized citi-
ze1s have been protected by treaties, and en-
igration encouraged by liberal provisions.
The defenders of the Union have been CRATE
fully remembered, and the rights and inter-
ests of labor recognized Laws have been
enacted, and are being enforced, for the pro-
lection of persons and property in all sec
tions. Equal suffrage has been engrafted on
the National Constition; the privileges and
immunities of American citizenship have
become part of the original law, and lib
eral policy has been adopted towards all
who participated in the rebellion. Compli-
cations in foreign relations have been ad-
justed in the interest of peace throughout the
world, while the national honor has been
maintained. Corruption has been exposed,
offenders punished, responsibility enforced,
safeguards established, and now, as hereto
fore, the Republican party stands pledged to
correct all abuses and carry out all reforms
cy of the public service, To continue and
firmly establish its fundamental principles,
we invite the cooperation of all the citizens
of the United States. .H .
