Tho Cincinnati Gazette ot July 27, says: The flntl scene in the tragedy at Seymour has ""been enacted. The la-t ol the expre-e rob'iers bare fallen into the hands of a Vtiiilunee Com mittee, more vigilant tuan even thu Sun Pru eiscnc; have pleaded in vain lor lite, bavo been allowed only short shift, have been huug in the dead of night from liuikis which, i-us'.aiijed only six davg before the weight of their guilty cool ades. i The s'ory of the laid attempted robbery is still fresh in ifie memoiies of iur readers, and the teirible judgment meted out to ElleU, Kose berry and Allium wid not have been forgotten.

To days Deiore Ellcts was writing letters io friends in Seymour Irom the Ninth Stm-t fctutiou House, in this city, telling them to be in no tear, for he was well and would soon rejoin them; asking ihem "to smoke their butt cigar on his account," aud l,to believe no news which they might her." The three were taken on Monday from this el'y. cr.mejed to Seymour, arriving thereabout 10 o'clock on Mondav night. All was sileut at the depot when the train baited, much more silent tuan u-uul. diet and lioseberry aud Clitton were hurried away. Ouly a lew mo mcuta later their bod es were dangling in ttis black darkuei-s of the nubt, from limbs in the midst of the forest No one was near to witness their last struggliugs, no one to offer even tho shortest payur for ths dying men. But the end was not yet. The work of the committee was still not accomplished. Three of the party engaged in the outrage wer yet at large, and until the same wild justice was metei out to them as to Klieta, Roseberry, aud Clifton, the cooiniittpe could nut cease its laoorj. A de scription of Moore, Spark, and Jerrell had been sent out in all directions by the defective who was working up the ca-e. Two of these men wer young Moore heing only twenty-three years old, at'd Sparks about thirty. The aue of Jeriell is unkno vn. All were single men, resi dents fur msny years of Seymour.

The announcement that there would be no extra session of the Senate baa caused a great exodus of claim agents, and the large lobby that have been attending the sessions of the Senate in the hope of gaining individual favors. Already Washington partakes some of the spirit of dullness and apathy that the non-presence of Congress creates. Senators and Representatives are off for their homeB not to rest for any length of timn, hut to take an active part in the coming political campaign. In this respect, radioal and Demo cratic members are alike earnest to work for party suocess. FiHdn'i Bureau Aftaatf. General C. II.

K.. .llO'i THE TWO PLATFORMS. THE REPUBLICAN "rLATFORM, Adapted mt thOiaie OuaTaatloa Mar ' SO, 1H08. The National Republican Party of the United Bta es, assembled in Nationii Convention in tbf City of Chlcaeo, on the 20th day of Mav, 18fifl, make the following declaration of prin ciples: 1. We congratnl te the country on the assured success ot tbe Kcconsliuctiou policy of Con ftress, as evinced by the adoption In tbe niHjority of the States lately iu UebellioD, of Constitutions securing equal civil and politic il rights to all, and It Is tbe duty ot tbe Goveru ment to sustain those Constitutions, and to prevent the people ot sucti Htates lrom beluit remitted to a state of anarchy. 2. The pwarautee by Congress of equal suf frage to all loyal men at tho South was de manded by every consideration of public safety, ot gratitude arid ol justice, aud must he main tained: while the question ot suitrfige in all tbe loyal States property belongs to the people of those 'tate. 3. We denounce all forms of repudiation as a National crime; and the National honnr requires the payment of tha public indcbtednesi In the uttermost Rood tmtb to ail creditors at home aud abroad, not only accord me to the letter but the spirit ot the laws uudur whicli it was con tracted. 4. It is due to tbe labor ol the nation that taxa'toti should be equalized and reduced as rapidly as the National taith will permit. 5. The National debt contracted, as it hai been, lor the preservation ot the Union lor all tioietocome, should be extended over a fair period lor redemption; and it Is tbe duty of Congress to reduce the ra'e of interest thereon, whenever it cau be hnuestly done. 6. That the bent policy to diminish our burden of debt Is to iu, prove our credit that capitalibts will seek to loau us money at lower rates of inteicst than we now pay, and muet continue to pay, so loni as repudiation, partiul or total, open or covert. Is threatened or suspected. 7. Tbe Government ol tbe United States should he administered wuh tbe strictest ecouo my, at d the corruptions which have ooeti so hhametiilly tirrccd and fostered by Andrew Jobmon call loudly tor radical reform. 8. We profoundly deplore the untimely and Useic cleaih ot Abraham Lincoln, Hud regret the accesMon ol Andrew Johnsou to tbe Presidency, wbo has ac ed ireacheioucly to th? people who elected him, and the cause he was pledged to support : who has u-urred high legislative and judicial Junctions; who ha refused to execute tbe laws: wbo has used his high office to induce other ollicers to ignore aud violate the laws; wno has ( m ployed his executive powers Io ren der insecute the property, the pi-ace, liberty, and liie ot tbe citizen; who has abused the par doning power; who has denounced the national Legislature as unconstitutional; who has persistently and corruptly resisted by eyrry measure In his power, every prop-r attempt at tho recoustruc'iou of the Btates lately in rebellion ; who has perverted tUe public patronage into au engine of wholesale corruption, and who ba been justly impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and properly pronounced guilty thereof by tbe vote ot tnirty-, five Senators. 0. The dectrine of Great Britain and other European power', that because a man is once a subj ct he i always so,naust bo resisted at every hazard by the (Juited States, as a relic of tbe feudal limes, not authorized by the law of na tions, and at war with our national houor aud independence. Naturalized citizens ore entitled to be pro'ected in all their rierulsof citizenship as though tuey were native born, and no ci'izeu ot the United States, native or naturalized, must he liable to arrest and imprisonmeut by any foreign power lor acts done or words sookeu in this country; and if so arrested aud impri soned, It is the duty of the Government to intern-re iu his behalf. 10. Ofallwiio were faithful iu the trials of the lute war, there were none cutiiled to more special honor than the brave soldiers and sea men wbo eiidured the hardships of campaign and cruise, and in, perilled their lives in tho ser vice ol the country ; the bounties and pensions provided b.y tUe law for these brave deieudurs of the nation are obligations never to be for gotten; the widows and orphans of the gallant dead are the wards ot the people, a sacred legacy bequeathed to the nation's protecting care. 11. Foreign immigration wh'cb in tno nist. has added so much to the w.alth, development and resources atd increase ol power to th's nation, tue a-iylum ot the oppressed of all natious should be fostered and encouraged by a liberal and jut policy. 12. Thi3 Convention declares itself in sym pathy with all the oppre6ed people which are struggling lor their rights. 13. That we highly commend the spirit of magnanimity aud forbearance with whim the men who bavo served in tho R"bollion, but now lrankly and honestly co-operate with us in restoring the peace ot the country and recon structing1 the Southern State Governments upon the basis of impartial justice aud equal rlghU, are received back into the communion of the loyal people; and we favor the removal of the disqualifications and restrictions imposed upon the late Ker.els in the same measure as their Fpirit ol loyalty will direct, and as may bo con sistent with the safety ot the loyal people. 14. Thut we recognize tho great principles laid down in the immortal Declaration of Inde pendence as the true 1' iundution of democratic government, aud we hail with gladness every effort toward making these principles a living reality on every inch of Ameri?an soil. THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM, Atlouud at tba Maw York Coavaatlou. Jaly 7, 1HCS. The Democratic paity, In National Convention assembled, reposing its trust iu the intelligence, patriotism and discriminating j istie ot tho people, stand iilj upou the Constitution as the inundation and limitation of tho powers of tho Government and the guarantee of the liberties of the citizen, and recognizing the questious o. slavery aud secession as having been settled tor all time to come by tbe war, or the voluutary action of the Southern Suites iu constitutional conventions assembled, and never to be renewed or rcagitaied, do, with the return of peace, de mand: f irst. Immediate restoration of all the States to their rights in the Union, under the Constitu tion, and of civil government to the Ameiljan people. Si cond. Amnesty for all past political offenses and the rrgulidku ot the elective franchise in the Hiates bv their citizens. Third. Pavmeut of the public debt of tho United States us rupidlyas practicable; all moneys drawn Irom the peopie by taxa ion, escpt so iiiucb as i requlr ite tor the necessities of the Govi'inmeiit economically aduilmsiered. being houestly applied to such payment, and where tbe obligations of the Government do not ex pr ssly siate upon their face, or the law uud--r which they were issued does not provide thut tbev shall be paid in coin, tuey ought in right and in justice ti be paid In the IuaIuI money of tbe United States. Fourib. kqual taxation of every species of pr 'petty according to its real value, including Government Innds and other public securities. Kiitu. Ote currency for tho Government aud the people, the laborer and the otlico holder, the pt nsloner and the soldier, tho producer and the b nd holder. SiKth. Economy in the administration of the Government, the reduction of the standing urmy and navy, the abolition of the Freedmen's liu re au. and all political instrumentalities leslened to m cure uegro supremacy ; simplification of the system and discontinuance ot iuquibi.orial Diodes of aasessiug und collec'ing Internul Revenue, so that the burden of taxation mav bo iquulized aud lessened, tho credit of the Gov err ment, and the currency made pood, tho rcpi ulot all enactments for enrolling tho State iniliiia into national forces iu tmie oi peace.au I a tiiiilT f-T revenue upon foreign imports, and such equal taxation under th1; Internal Revenue laws ua will a Bo id incidental protection to domestic manufactures, and ns wil wnhoiit iai pairing the revenue, impose tho luast burdeu upon and best promo'e and encourage the great industrial inteiesis of the country. Seventh. Reform of abuses in the administra tion, the expulsion of corrupt men irom otlico, the sbioga'iou ol useless otliees. the restoratiou cf lightlul authority to, and tbe ialependeuce of the Executive and the Judicial Departments of the Government, the anbordluation of the military to the civil power, to the end that the nsurpaMons of Congress and the despotism of tbe sword may cease, Eisbth. Equal rights and protection for natu ralized ard native-born citizens at home and abroad, tbe asser' ton of American nationality, which shall command the re-p ct of foreign powers, and furnith an example and encourage ment to people MruQgling for national integrity, constitutional liberty and Individual rights: and the maintenance of the rights of naturalized citizens acainst tbe absolute doctrine ol immu table allegiance and the claims of foreign pow era to punish them for alleged crime committed beyond their jutlcd'ction. In demanding these measures and reforms we arraign the radical party lor its disregard of right and the unparalleled oppression and tjTanny which have marked its career. After tbe most solemn aud unanimous pledge of both Houses ot Gongres tn prosecute the war exclu sively tor the maintenance of the Government and the preservation of the Union under the Constltu'lon, it baa repeatedly violated that most sacted pledge nndcr which alone was ral lied that noble volunteer army which carried our flag to victory. Instead of restoring the Union, It has, so far as is in Its power, dissolved it, and subjected ten btates in timp of profound peace to military despotism and negro supremacy. It has nulli fied there tbo right ot trial by jury; it has abolished the habeas corpus, that most sacred wrr of liberty; it has overthrown the freedom ot speech and the press; it has substituted arbi trary seizures and arrests, and military trials and secret Star Chamoer Inquisitions for tho constitutional tribunals; it has disregarded, in time ot peace, the right ot tbe people to be free from searches and seizures; it hai entered the post aud ti teginph offices, and even the private rooms of Individuals, and seized their private pnpeis and le'ters, without any specific charge or Lotice of affidavit, as required by the organic law; it has converted tbe American Capi tol Into a finst Up; It has established a sj stem cf spies and official espionage to wh'ch no constitutional monarchy of Kurope would now dare to rtsort; it has abolished tbe ngnt ot anpi al on important constitutional questioLS to the supreme judicial tribunals, and Ihicatms to curtail or destroy its original juris diction, which Is irrevocably vested by tho Con stitution; while the learned Chief Justice has been subjected to tho most atrocious cilaranlcs, D erely because he would notprostltute his high olhce to tho support of the false and partisan charges preferred against the Presideut. Its corruption and extravagance have exceeded anubmg known in history, and by its frauds and monopolies it has nearly doubled tho burden of the debt created by the war. It has stripped the President of this constitutional power of appointment even of his own Cabinet. Under its repeated assault.- the pillars of tbe Govern ment are rocking ou their base, and should it succeed in Noveiiber next, and inaugurate tts President, we will meet as a subject and con quered people around the rmn of liberty, and tic scattered tragnents of the Constitution. And we declare and resolve that ever since the people of the United States threw olF all subjection to the Uritish crown, the privilege and trust of the suffrage have belonged to the several states, and have been granted, regu lated, and controlled exclusively by the political power of e?ch Slate respectively, und that any attempt by Cougress, on any pretext whatever, to deprive any State of this right, or interfere with its exercise is a flagrant usurpation of power which can find no warrant in tbe Con stitution; and if sanctioned by the people will subvert our form of government, aud can only end in a single centralized and consolidated goveinment, in whicn the eepnraie existeuce of the States will be entirely absorbed and an un qualified despotism be established in place ot a Federal Union of co equal States; and that we regxrd thp Reconstruction act (so-called) of Cou gnss, as such, ns usurpations and unconstitu tional, revolui tonary and void; that our sol diers aud sa lors who carried the Aug of our country to victory against a most gallant and determined lue, must ever be gratefully remera beied and all Ihe guatantees given in their favor must be fai'hfully carried into execation; that the public lands should be distributed as widely ns pcssinie aniong tne people, ana siiotiia be disposed of either under tho Pre-emption or Homestead laws, and sold in reasonable quan tities, and to none but actual occupants, at the minimum price established by the Government. When grants of the public lands may be al lowed, necessary for the encouragement of Im portant public improvements, the proceeds ot the sale of such lands, and not the lands them. bcIvps, should be so applied. That the President ol tbe United States, Andrew Johnson, in exer cislrg the power of his high office, in resisting the aggressions of Congress, upon the constitu tional rights ot the States aud the people, is entitled to the gratitude of the whole American people, and in behalf of the Democratic party we tender him our thanks lor his patriotic elloits in that regard. Upon this platform the Democratic party appeal to every patriot, including all tho con servative element, and all who desire to support the Constitution and restore the Union, forget ting all past ditl'etences ot opinion, to unite with us in tbe present great struggle for tbe liberties ol the people; and that to ail such, to whatever party they may have heretofore belonged, we extend tbe right band of fellowship, aud hail all such co-operating with us as friends and brethren.
