Resolred, That the address and resolu-
tions Of the Libel al Republican Conyen
ton held at Cincinnati on the lst Of May
last, embody fundamental principles
which the Democratic electors of the
State Of Wisconsin cordially endorse,
and that they cheerfully acquiesce in the
re-legatlon to the people of the several
states of the political questions upon
which that convention expressed no opin.
ion.
That the exposition and calculation Of
the platform of the Cincinnati convention
by Horace Greeley il his letter of accep,
tance of the nomination for President, fur
nish satisfactory assurance to the Amer.
ican people, that he will. if elected, admin
lister the government upon the principles
enumerated IN that platform.
Therefore, in devotion to principle, way
ing our preferences for men, and believing
that the approval of the nominees of the
Cincinnati Convention is sure index of
obtaining the triumph and ascendancy OF
those principles, We approve the same, and
recommend that our delegates to the Bal
timore Convention do ratify the action of
the Cincinnati Convention.
That the Wisconsin delegates in the
Baltimore Convention are hereby instructed
to vote as a unit upon all questions before
that convention.
