TEE DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES.
THE address.

Therefore, we, the Liberal Repub-
leans of the United States, in Ma
tional Convention assembled at Gin
cinnati, proclaim the following prin-
ciples as essential to just Govern
ment /:
i. We recognize the equality of
all men before the law, and hold
that it is the duty Of Government in
its dealings with the people to mete
out eqaul and exact instice to all, OF
whatever nativity, race, color, OF
porsuation, religious or political.
2. We pledge ourselves to main
tain the Union of these States,
emancipation, and cnfranchisemeat,
and to oppose any reopening OF the
questions settled by the Thirteenth,
Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend
meuts to the Constitution.
3. We demand the immediate
and absolute removal OF all disabili-
ties imposed on account OF the re-
bel}ion which was finally subtlued
seven years ago, believing that uni
yersal amnesty will result in COM
p]ete pacifcation in all sections of
the country.
/. Local self-government, with
impartial suffrage. will guard the
| rights OF all citizens moro securely
than any centralized power. The
public welfare requires, the supren-
acv of the civil over the military au-
tho,ity, and freedom of person I'M
der the protection Of '.a'ros ror.?2t1s.
We demand for the individual the
largest liberty consistent with public
order, for the State self-government,
and for the nation a return to the
methods Of peace aud the constitu-
tional limitations of power.
5. The civil service of the Gov
eminent has become a mere instru-
ment Of partisan tyranny and per-
sonal ambition, and an object OF sell
fish greed. 1t is scandal and re-
preach upon free institutions. aud

passengers, she came in turn to one who
subsequently gave her name as Mrs.
Thomas Smith, of Virginia Noticing that
the indy walked with much difficulty, an
examination Of her garments was made,
when it was discovered that she wore a
skirt which was completely filled with
jewelTy, silks, satins and silverware. The
garment, it is said, weighed not less than
one hundred pounds, and the value of the
smuggled property seized cannot be less
than $1,000. The valuables were taken pos

Thomas Smith suffered to depart, sadder
and wiser by experience.
