Of itiNuF.y, - Oita, MCCoon and G n.
Rosaccwrs, with the channee in favoi of
the first name.4.'. C.orr, who had been the
favorite of the Cincinnati Enquirer,' was
probably laid out cold by the republica
tion of his two years' old letter to Nrxol,
advocating the recognition of colored - su -
frakeln‘Ohlo.''Otheru4se he would have
been arreligiiiie candidate, bUt .?tat record
was fatal "to ,his aspirations; the Ohio'
Democracy would sooner, forgive any
thing else than the doctrine of universal
equality, which, as in . Pennsylvania, they
regard as the one - unpardonible sin.
That was the end of Cm. -In October,
the people will'send his now' successful
rival to keep him-company.
PROBABLY, a correct estimate,' of 'the
.sort of ticket just - put in nomination by
the opposition party Philadelphia, may
be had by hearing what Democratic:jour
nals have, to say about it. The Mercury,
for exaMple, is known as ~',.`asitiaight.out
Democratic itirie:r, 'bitter . in its hatred-of
Republican principles," and never before
expressing any dissatisfaction 4-with the
action of kita .party.‘• ~But it bolts the
present nominations, 'rejnarldrig . that the
Conventions were t i tibicreditable in all
respects," "composed of the worst possi
ble material, of which it would be an in.
suit and a lie to say that they.represented
the Mass of thcPhiladelphia Democracy."
And the ticket corresponds thereto, in
every particular. ' Balithe . Ifereury: —
Suclipersistent and audacious violation
of every :principle of party policy and
'public -decency shall no , longer receive
toleration. The fact of a great'and once
glorlotistiarty. wititgreat P1'1464168 at
stake, being not , only ruled but ruined by
devils in human shape, is enough to make
I every respectable citizen skit even df the
name of .pemocracy.
A mrcirm - from . Hon. A.R. STEptt6s
sustains the judgment of the Georgia ST
preme Courtin favor of neqo eligibility
to office: He holds, also, that whUethe
present Legislature cannot, and ought
I not, to, restore the expelled, members to
the seats from which its authority to re
move them has not been shaken by the
present decision, ills equally clear . that a
succeeding Legislature should respect the
spirit and intent of , this judicial opinion.
The logie of IfIr * . STE:2IIE.'N'S. is sadly rag
ged about the edges, and leaves but one
conclusion upon a • dispassion ate criticism,
—and that is in favor of a prompt retreat:l
by, this Legislature from an untettablezo
in.odece.nt submisslon to the au- '
fliority of their own highest court. No
special pleading from the same pen can
supply a satisfactory answer to his own
statement of the legal:question, as follows:
'I thought the two Houses of our Gen

aggrieved that Snowden, the Prothono-,

to have issued thousands of illeganatur

CHICAGO, July 6.-The frish Reptitill
can"NationaLConvention reassembled at
.
PariVell Hall this 'Morning. ' A number
, of delegates'Lmet present yesterday put.
in an appearance. Letters were read
from liblr. - George W. Repper, of Wel
lington, Ohio, and Hon. H. S. Baird, of
Green Bay, Wis., regretting their in
ability to attend ,the Convention '
and ex
pressing their sympathy with its objects.
The Committee on Platform then pre
sented their report. It was discussed
nearly the entire day and finally adopted
as follows:
The Irish Republibans °Op United
States of America, in National
Convention assembled, 'in the city
or Chicago, Illinois, on the 4th day of
July, 1669, have made the following de
claration of principles—
Resolved, That it is the duty of the
Irish people in this Republic, and of all
men over the world, to give their support
to those who, on principle, contend for ;
the right of ail to perfect liberty,without I
regard to ro te, color, creed or sex. 1
2. Resolved, That loyalty to the Amerl
can Republic, it fixed and unalterable
determination .to stand by the only free
Government on earth, and to preserve
and defend- it against the attacks and
machinations ofall its enemies, is the first
political duty which the Irish citizens of
this country are called upon to discharge.
3. Resolved, That to spread the princi
ples of freedom is a duty we owe to, our
selves and to the oppressed people of the
earth, and one which by all means con
sistent with international obligations we
are bound; to discharge.
4. Resblved, That we ask for the op
- presaed people of our native land, for
Cuba,.and the down trodden of all en
slaved,latids, the sympathy and support
of the people and. Government of the
'United States. ..
5. Resolved, That we protost against
Em presence of the armed despotisua of
urope on this continent; and pledge our
hearty co-operation to any plan adopted
for its removal., •
6. Resolved, That to Senators Stunner,
of Massachusetts, and Chandler, of Mich
igan, we tender our thanks for the noble
efforts made by them to secure justice
for the injuries inflicted by England on
this country, and which are known as the
"Alabama Claims," and that we declare
our readiness to stand by the. Goi-ern
-ment of the Republic in insisting upon
an ample apology, for the wrongs com
mitted, and full cempensation for the
loss sustained.
7. Resolved, That free trade, falsely so
called, being a cunning tvizi selfish de
vice of the enslavers of mankind, saps
the very foundation of American pros.
perity and independence, and that we,
in interests of the American people,
claim full and adequate legislative pro
tection to American industry. To those
only who maintain the principle of pro
tection, and who will make honest efforts
to embody it Ins protective tariff, should
the votes of workmen in America bo
- 8. Resolved, That tle tendency which
Indaces so many to neglect the cultiva
tion of the soil and congregate into great.
cities we regard aeon evil, and one which
as consigning multitudes of theirish peo
ple of this country to Mekong , Aulaery.
We therefore declare our determination
.to take measures to afford facilities to our
fellow countrymen to settle down in the
free and fertile lands of, this great mid
glorious country.
9. Resolved, That we rejoice in the 01-
umphant amen of the Republican
cause at the late Presidential election,,
and pledge to President Grant our cor
dial support in preserving and defending
the great principles of human' liberty at
home and abroad. '
W. RaoWed, That theexisting neutral
ity laws, being instrumental • only in
aiding the monarchs of the earth in sus
taining the oppressive systems of gov
ernmentotid having on various occasions
-placed the American government in the
anomalous position of using their pOwer
for the support of said governments, and
receiving only In return active and open
hostility from the British government,
we hereby pledge ourselves to labor for
their entire repeal. .
,The first resolution was passed by a
vote of tifty-one to forty-nine. • The
words "or sex". being the chief objection

ment on the seventh reeolution.
A resolution was offered and passed,

Court met Tuesday at ten o'clock and
disposed of the following esses:-
,
A WITNESS BECOMES A DEFENDANT.
Edward. Sweeney, tavertilreOiker in
East Birmingbarn, was placed on trial
for selling liquor on Sunday. Hugh Mc-
Siviggari, a nail feeder,testified he was
furnished with two "drinks" of whiskey
on Sunday, June 6th; at the house of de
fendant,- by - one John Mulholland, who
was stopping at the.hoase. This was the
whole case for the Commonwealth,
Jacob Whites°ll, Esq., prosecuting.
For the defense, John Mulholland was
called i and testified he was a pedler by ,
occupation and stopped at. the house of
Sweeney. On" the. morning of Sunday,
Jane, 6 th, Mr. Sweeney being yet in his
bed, McSwiggan and others came to the
house wanting their "bitters." The wit
netis desired to accommodate them, and
besides was,"dry.e himself,. in coma
quence of a "debauch" the night previ
ous: Failing to obtain' the key from the
"servant girl," he forced an entrance to
the bar-room, furnisheckMeSwiggan and
hia friends with • "what they desired
and took a drink = himself. For taking
this unauthorized liberty he subsequent
ly had some "hard words" with Mr.
Sweeney, who. according to the witness,
objected, most decidedly to the proceed
lug.
Unfortunately for the good- defense so
far Made; the witness Mulholland un
willgly Admitted, on cross-examina
tion y Mr. Whitesell, that on Sundays
previous to the 6th of June. within a
period of two years, he bad been fur
iishid with liquor by the defendant on
his p emises.
Having concluded his testimony, Mr.
Mulholland was requested by 'the Court
to take a seat within, the bar, and at once
received the attention of a tipstave.
Judge Sterrett inquired of W. C.

to be afraid that the other boroughs will

Popular. vote of the different boroughs,
