The Republican party, in National Convention assembled, at the end of twenty years since the Federal Govern ment was first committed -to its charge, submits to the people of the United States this brief report of iU adminis tration: It snppressed a rebellion of men to subvert the National authority. It reconstructed the Union of States with freedom instead of slavery as its cor nerstone. It transformed 4,000,000 human beings from the likeness of things to the rank df citizens. It re lieved Congress from the infamous work of hunting fugitive slaves, and charged it to see that slavery did not exist; i has raised the value of our paper currency from 38 per cent to the par of gold. It has restored, upon, a solid basis, payment in coin of all National obligations, and has given us a currency ab-olutely good and eqal in ever' part of our extended country. It has lifted the credit of the Nation from the point where 6 per cent bonds sold at 86, to that where 4 per cent bonds are eagerly -sought at a premium. Under its administration railways have, increased from 31,000 miles in 1860 to more than 82,000 miles in 1879. Our foreign trade has increased from 5700,000,000 to 81,150,000,000 in the same time, ami our exports, which were 20,000,000 less than our imports in 1860, were 264,000,000 more than our imports in 1879. With out resorting to loans, it has, since the war closed, drfraved the ordinary ex- Lpensej of Government, besides the ac cruing interest on tne public debt, and has disbursed annually more than S30, 000,000 for soldiers' and sailors' pen sions. It has paid 880,000,000 of the public debt, and by refunding the balance at lower rates, has reduced the annual interest charge from nearly S150,000,000 to less than 89,000,000. All the industries of the country have revived, labor is in demand, wages have increased, and throughout the en tire country there is evidence of a com ing prospeiity greater than we have ever enjoyed. Upon this record the Republican party asks for the contin ued confidence and support of the peo ple, and this Convention submits for their approval the following statement -jef thO-plii-illlto-nrl )MlrVMi rrtlioVi win coTttinuo to guide and inspire its efforts. Fin.t We affirm that the work of the Republican party for the iast twen ty years has been such as to commend it to the faor of tho nation; that the fruits of the costlv victories which we have achieved through immense diffi culties should be preserved; that the peate we gained should be cherished; that the Union should be "perpetuated, and that the liberties secured t.o this generation should be transmitted undi minished to future generations; that the order established and the credit ac quired should never be impaired; that the pensions promised should be paid; that the debt so much reduced should be extinguished by the full payment of every dollar therpof; that tho reviving industries should be further promoted, and that the commerce already so great should be steadily encouraged. Second The Constitution of the United States is a supreme law, and not a mere contract. Out of confeder ated StateS"it makes a sovereign nation. Some powers are denied to the nation, while others are denied to the States, but the boundary between the powers delegated and those reserved is to le determined by the national and not by the State tribunals. Third Tho work of popular- educa tion is one left to tho cAre of th- sever al Statps, but it is the dutv of the na tional Government to aid that work to the extent of its constitutional ability. The intelligence of the nation is but the aggregate of the intelligence in the several States, and that the destiny of the nation must be guided not by the genius of any ono State, but by the, average gnnins of all. Fourth The Constitution wisely forbids Congress to make any law re specting an establishment of religion, hut it is idle to hope that the nation can be protected against the influence of sectarianism while, each State is ex posed to its domination. Wo, there fore, recommend that tho Constitution be so amended ns to lay tho same pro hibition upon the Legislature of each Statp, nml to forbid the appropriation of public funds to the support of sec tarian schools.' Fifth We reaffirm the belief avow- pd in 1876 that the dutie.s levied for thp purpose of revenue should so dis criminate as to favor American labor; that no furthpr grants of the public do main should be madn to any railway or othpr corporation: thatslavpry having perished in the States, its twin barbar ity, polygamy, mmt die in the Terri tories; that everywhere the protection accorded to a citizen of Aniprican birth must be secured to citizens hy Ameri can adoption. That wo doetn it the duty of" Congress to develop and im prove our watercourses and harbors, hut insist that further subsidies to pri vate persons or corporations must cease; that the' obligations of the Re public to the men who prpserved its integrity in the hour of -battle are un diminished hy the lapse of fifteen years since their final victory. To do them honor is and shall forever be the grate ful privilege and sacred duty of the American people. Sixth Since the authority to regu late immigration and intercourse be tween the United States and foreign nations rests with the Congress of the United States and the treaty-making power, the Republican party, regarding tho unrestricted immigration of Chi nese as a mattej of grave concernment, under the exercise of both those- pow ers would limit and restrict that immi gration by the enactment of .uch just, humane and reasonable laws and treat ies n.i will produce that result. Seveuth That the purity- and; pa triotism which characterized the earlier career of Rutherford B. Hayes in peace and war, aud which guided the thoughts of our immediate predecessors to him for a Presidential candidate, have con tinued to inspire him in his career as Chief Executive; and that history will accord to his administration the honors which arc due to an efficient, just and courteous discharge of the public busi ness, and will honor his vetoes inter posed between the people and attempt ed partisan laws. Eighth We charge upon the Demo cratic party the habitual sacrifice of patriotism and justice to a supreme and insatiable lust for office and pat ronage; that toobtain possession of the national aud State Governments and the control of place and position, they have obstructed all efforts to promote the purity and to conserve ihe freedom of suffrage, and have devised fraudu lent ballots, and invented fraudulent certification of returns; have labored to unseat lawfully elected members of Congress to secure at all hazards the -vote of a majority of States in the House of Representatives; have en deavored to occupy by force and fraud the places of trust given to others by the people of Maine, rescued by the courage in action of Maine's patriotic sons; have, by methods vicious in principle and tyrannical in practice, attached partisan legislation to appro priation bills upon whose passage the very movement of the Government de pended; have crushed the rights of the individual; have advocated the princi ples and sought the favor of tho Rebel lion against the nation, and have en deavored to obliterate the sacred mem ories of. the war and to overcome iU inestimably valuable reijuiia ofnauon ality, personal freedom and individual equality. Ninth The equal, and steady, and complete enforcements of the laws, and the protection of all our citizens in the enjoyment of all privileges and immu nity guaranteed by the Constitution, are the first duties of the nation. Tenth The dangers of a "Solid South" can only be averted by a faith ful performance of every promise which the nation has made to the citizen. The execution of the laws, and the punishment of all those who violate them, are the only safe meth ods by which an enduring peace can be secured and genuine prosperity es tablished throughout the South. Whatever promises the nation makes tho nation must perform. A nation cannot with safety relegate this duty to the States. The "Solid South" must be divided by the peaceful agen cies of the ballot, and all honest opin ions must there find free expression. To this end the honest voter must be protected against terrorism, violence or fraud. Eleventh And vtp affirm it to be tho duty and tho purpose of the Re publican party to use all legitimate means to restore all the States of this Union lo the most perfect harmony which may be possible, and we submit to the practical, sensible people of these United States to say whether it would not be dangerous lo the dearest inter ests of our country at this time to sur render the administration of the national Government to a party which seeks to overthrow the existing policy under which we aro so prosperous, and thus bring distrust and confusion where there is now order, confidence and hope. Twelfth Ihe Republican party, nd hering to tho principles affirmed by its last National Convention of rpspect for the constitutional rulc3 governing np pointments to office, adopts tho declar ation of President Hayes that the re form of the civil service should be thorough, radical and complete. To this end it demands the co-operation of the legislative with the executive departments of tho Government, and that Congress shall so legislate that fitnps-s, ascertained by proper practical tests, shall admit to the public service.

The San Francisco "Examiner,'', with its accustomed efforts to traduce, the Republican candidates, accuses. Garfield of having been deeply involv ed ih the Credit Mobilier frauds, and no torious for the De Goyler swindle Now Jerry S: Black is a staunch and honorable Democrat, whose word no' Democrat will dispute, and it will probably be remembered that ljo wrote an able open letter in reply to a great speeofomado by Garfield at the time of the Credit Mobilier business, in which he- exonerated Garfield, though con-" d'emning other Republicans. Thi3 let ter was published in pamphlet form, and sent broadcast over the land, at last Presidential election, as an elect ioneering document against the Re publicans. Addressing himself direct ly to Garfield in reply to that gentle man's masterly speech, he used the following language. I will therefore call your attention, to another case to which Dahomeiaa rule does not apply, and in which the failure of the Republican party to pun ish its own rascals has been equally signal; I mean the frauds of the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Credit Mobilier. "Xou will parJon me, I am sure, fct referring to this affair; you are the last man upon whom I would make a personal point, and I could not do it here if would try; for the conviction I have often expressed remains unchanged, that your inte, rity was not stained hy such connection as you had with the business. Black has held the position of Tf. S. Attorney General and other import ant positions at Washington, and bad every opportunity to notice Mr. Gar field's career. Speaking in this sarao letter confidentially, Black further said, "But we both know that it (Credit Mobilier) was tho most gigan tic fraud that tho history of modern times disclosej Thus is it shown, conclusively fiyJerry Black that-Garfield was as free from tarnish as him self in this transaction, and there fore there is no need of any defence being made in his beha'f, though prop er to explain the misrepresentation of papers who will admit no honorable record in an opponent, no matter how justly entitled to it. "Yroka Journ al." THIS HO.NKOC DOCTU1.NE. Tho Burlington Hawkeye man thus expatiates on the Monroe doctrine: "The Monroe doctrine, simply and ex plicit declares that foreign nations shall not come over here and slide down our cellar door; that England and France shall not hang on our front gate to do their courting; that they can't bring over their syrup-pots and eldersprouts and make sugar in our maple grove; that Germany and Austria can't spot no bee tree in our woods; that Italy can't cut her firewood out of our hedge rows; that Russia can't spank her neighbors children with our butter paddle. The Monroe doc trine simply means that we are thn bull of the woods between two oceans, aud that the man who joins farms with us on either side had better not move the boundary fence until he talks to us about it, and that he can't sublet a patch of his farm to anybody until we are satisfied that the new tenant will make a good neighbor for us. That's about all there is of it. HOTMCK. There is one being in this world that carl afford comfort in the heavies sorrow and soften the most rigorous trials of our life. We call this being mother. God gave her to us to sweet en with- her kisses of love the bitter cup that is often pressed to. our lip?. He sent her to our cradle with the wings of affection to hide from our view the dark future into which wo are to bo hurried to contend with death. He appointed her to fold our hands in the first prayer, and made her smile the dawn of infinitude of our hopes. To us she is the incarnation of goodness, virtue and mercy, and the hour of temptation we may hear her tender voice pleading to our soul. Whenever we feel a generous emotion, the desire to dry a human tear, to help the unfortunate, to break our bread with the hungry and to perform any noble act for our fellow-boings, we are often unconsciously impelled by the subtle power of the mother's influence, for it is she who fashions our charac ter and stamps upon it impressions tha remain forever,
