Niw Y ork , June 18.—A special telegram
from Washington says the following is mid
to be an authoritative statement of the plat­
form ef Chief Jnstioe Chase by himself:
Universal saffrage as recognised by Demo­
cratic principles, the regulation of1 which is
to be left to the several States under the
Constitution of tho United States; to the
States universal amnesty and the complete
removal of all disabilities on a0Ouht of
participation in the rebellion, not only as a
just and wise measure of public policy, but
necessary to the beneficial administration of
tho government in the States recently in­
volved in civil war with the United States;
a foil and satisfaciory. re-eatablitoment of
tho practical relations of those State« with
the other States of the American Union:
no military government in any 8$ate in the'
Union in time of peace, this being incom­
patible with the principles ef citil liberty
established by the Constitution* nor can the
trial of private citizens by military com*
mission be tolerated by a people jealous ef
their freedom and desiring to be free; taxes
to be reduced as far as practicable, collected
impartially and with strict economy, and
proportioned as they bear on property rather
than on labor, and while national obliga­
tions should bo honestly and exactly ful­
filled. no speoial privilege should bo allowed
to any classes, individuals or corporations.
