THE Revolution accomplished in
Turkey on the 3Oth ult., may properly
be classed among the worlds wonders.
1t was accomplished peaceably with
out bloodshed. Abdul AziZ, the reign
ing Sultan, was deposed, and Murad
Effendi, the nephew OF the Sultan,
elevated to the dignity of Sultan. All
the reports, previous to this revolution,
indicated war, and Turkish securities
were as a consequence badly depFeci-
ated. After the news became known,
q change in favor of the securities oc
Cured, and was maintained, which
would indicate that the change was
construed to mean peace The new
Sultan is n young man who under
stands something-of European civiliza-
ton. and but that the Empire is
doomed TO pass from the list of ma
tions, might be expected 10 arrest its
decay and do something TO restore it to
its former condition. At best, he can
but delay the period when the empire
shall be blotted out, and Islamisin fade
from the East.

OHIO REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

First-The Republicans of Ohio renew
their allegiance to the Republican party
of the United States, and re-affirn its
principles OF free government, as declar-
ed and defended by the grand men of
1776, and endeared to the people of our
time by the sacrifices of war and the
blessings of an assured union of the
States, based upon universal liberty.
Second-The citizens of the several
States of the Union are also citizens of
the nation, and are equal under the con-
stitution and laws il ali the rights of
citizenship, and are entitled to full and
equal protection in their exercise
Third-We favor an honest and econo-
mieal administration of the Government
and favor retrenchment and reform in
the public service. Personal integrity
and fidelity should be required of all
officials and when found to be dishonest
and corrupt they should be prosecuted
and punished, and we cordially COM
meEd the vigorous prosecution of pub
lie offenders by the present national
administration.
FoHrth-The national credit and hon.
or must be sacredly maintained.
Fifth-We recognize gold as the true
standard of value and the only steady
and safe basis for a circulating medium,
and declare that that policy of finance
should be steadily pursued, which with
ont unnecessary injury to business or
trade will ultimately equalize the value
of the coin and paper dollar.
Sixth-We favor a tariff for revenue
with incidental protection to American
industry.
Seventh-We stand by the system of
free common schools supported ky gen.
eral taxation; there must be no division
of the school fund and no svctarian
interference with the schools.
Eighth-To the soldiers and sailors
,x{as fought for the Union, the Nation
owes = debt of gratitude, and the Wild
.ows and orphans of those who have
fallen are justly entitled to liberal
bounties and pensions.
Einth-The thanks of the people are
dae to President Grant for his faithful
adherence to Republican principles. and
we assure him of the gratitude of the
country for the distinguished service he
has rendered as a soldier and civilian.
Tenth The Republican party OF Ohio
Saving full confidence in the honesty,
abazey and patriotism of Rutherford B.
Hayes. cordially present him to the
National Republican Convention for
the nomination for President of the
United States, and our State delegates
TO the Convention are instructed, and
the district delegates are requested to
use their earnest efforts to secure his
nomination.

REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION
1876

The next Union Republican National
Convention for the nomination of can
didates for President and Vice President
of the United States will be held in the
city of Cincinnati, on Wednesday, the
18th day of June, 1876. at 12 o'clock
noon, and will consist of delegates from
each State equal to twice the number of
its Senators and Representatives in Con-
gress, and of two delegates from each
organized Territory and the District of
Columbia.
In calling the convention for the
election of delegates, the committees of
the several States are recommended to
invite all Republican electors, and all
other voters, without regard to past
political differences or previous party
affiliations, who are opposed to reviv-
ing sectional issues, and desire to pro-
mote friendly feeling and permanent
harmony throughout the country by
maintaining and enforcing all the con-
stitutional rights of every citizen, in
cluding the full and free exercise of the
right of suffrage without intimidation
and without fraud; who are in favor of
the continued prosecution and punish
ment of all official dishonesty, and of an
economical administration of the Gov
ernment by honest, faithful and capable
officers; who are in favor of making
such reforms in government as expert
ence may from time to time suggest;
who are opposed to impairing the credit
of the nation by depreciating any of its
obligations. and in favor of sustaining
i'm every way The national faith an finan-
cial honor; who hold that the common
school system is the nursery of American
liberty, and should be maintained abso-
lutely free from sectarian control; who
believe that, for the promotion Of these
ends, the direction of the government
should continue to be confined to those
who adhere to the principles of 1776,
and support them rs Incorporated in the
Constitution and the laws; and who are
in favor of recognizing and strengthen
ing the fundamental principle of Ma
tional Unity in this Centennial Anniver-
sary of the birth of the Republic.

his action has reached the country, he
will probably stand higher in the esti-
nation OF the people than pefore, and
have increased tie chances for his
nomination at Cincinnati. His moye-
