Which the President Thinks
Will Unite the Republican
Party.
WASHINGTON, D. C., April 17.-Before
the formal assembly of the Cabinet yes
terday, the President said a certain plat
form, II adopted, would be likely to
reunite the Republicans, who could then
control Congress. Following is the plat.
form in brief:
First-Resumption Of specie payments
in gold and silver.
Second-Resistauce TO all schemes for
Initiating paper currency.
Third-A fair and moderate tariff that
will afford reasonable protection 10 Amer
lean industries.
Fourth-An amendment to the Consti-
tuition prohibiting tue Use OF money
raised by public taxation for the support
Of sectarian schools.
Fifth-Speedy completion Of all pub.
lie works, such as river and harbor i'm.
ptovements, public buildings. fortiica-
tlons, ETC., nov that labor and material
are cheap and workingmen need employ.
ments, aud a liberal policy for the i'm.
proyemsnt OF the great national channels
Of commerce like the Mississippi river
and its tributaries.
Members Of the Cabinet conceded
with the President, and, after some in.
formal discussion, a sixth paragraph was
added, declaring against the payment Of
claims to disloyal citizens for damages
and losses growing out Of the Rebellion,
and the payment Of pensions to persons
who were disloyal during the war. With
this addition the platform was pronounc.
ed to be a fair presentation Of the views
OF the Administration.

are other large contracts sufficient TO keep
the mills running for a year, and the
smoke from their towering chimneys will
soon announce the dawn Of renewed pros
perity for this city. Receiver Leith has
satisfactorily arranged matters with The
first and second ~bondholders, and will
eventually see that the mill paper held
here receives proper consideration. The
mills will be operated under the manage
ment Of Leith, seconded by Judge Nc.
Roberts, with q. s. Smith, Esq, asSuper.
intendent, and about 700 men will be EN-
ployed on 4 single turn.
The credit for this belongs 10 Receiver
Leith, Superintendent Smith, the Hon,
W. s. Brooks and Judge McRoberh, who
have taken a deep interest insthe affairs
OF the mills, and Il is to their efforts prin'
cipally, il not wholly, that Joliet Is in
debted for the present promiSing condi'
ton OF those affairs, and the hopeful fu-
ture which seems 10 be in store for the
city a. u result Of the permanent opera
ton Of its chief manufacturing estab.
lishment. These gentlemen have worked
harmoniously for the best interests oil the
mills, assisting each other when assist
ance was necessary, and the qualification
they feel over the grand success Of their
management is shared by every person in
this community.
