Speech and Platform.

SARATOGA, Sept. 26.-The republican state
convention organized to-day with Roscoe
Conkling as temporary chairman and per
mauent president. The senator, after &C
knowledging his hearty greeting. began his
speech. He spoke for upwards OF an hour,
taking the hard money chute, using the stale
arguments about the relations of capital and
democracy for their financial views, de-
nouncing the solid south, and exhibiting
the Dugaboo of southern war claims. In
conclusion he said: LET our motto be-: In
essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, in
all things charity" Mr. Conkling having
concluded, the usual committees were APP
pointed and a recess taken.
The platform advocates the payment of
the public debt and public promises accord
ing TO the letter and spirit of the law; insists
on specie resumption and making currency
and coin equivalent; upholds the electoral
commissions; demands free and unintimi-
dated elections in the south; denounces the
southern claims; favors civil service reform
opposes further land grants or subsidies 10
corporations; decries the cnppling OF the
army, and denies a reduction of expendi-
lures by the democratic house; declares an
emergency exists for the success OF the re-
publicans and calls for support.
George William Curtis rising was greeted
with applause and loud calls to take the
platform, where he was again received with
tue heartiest greeting. He said he rose to
