THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

Eloquent Speech of Gen. Oglesby Before tbe Illinois Republican Convention.

The Republican party of tho nation has presented to tho American people seven national platforms. Upon six of those, now near tho close of a quarter of a oentury, wo have been successful. Tho flist National Republican platform was laid deep in tho hearts of the people, as the basis, M10 foundation, upon which the structure was afterward to bo erected which those other six National Hepublican p atlorma exemplify In this country to-day. Firm and solid as the foundations of the Libyan coast and tho grand pyramids of Efrypt, bui.t by tho ingenuity ami art or man thousands and tho.isauds 01 yo.n s ago, tho o grand structures, tixed upon a basis ihiitwi I never yiold, wore built to stand nil f ine. So Republican principles, as exemplified in tho six succeeding- national p:atiorms, were bused upon the ilrst one, as tho pyra nlds lu tho Libyan dosort were ba!pd upon tlicir impregnable and eternal foundations. Wo have implanted in the hearts of the American people, o!d and young, the tuudamental truths or human liberty. Wo Uavo i!cd it so deeply m the human breast that time can never eradicate it. That was the loading doctrine of the Ilrst platform. Tho one of 18x0. reasserting the grand principles of the Ilrst one, went a step further nod dealt with the question of interstate commerce, the opening of tho Pacific Railway. It took the firound that in levying taxes for tho support of tl.o Gov

ernment it should be so laid an to protect American industry and Ami-ricun labor. In 1864( when tho third ono came, we were in the agonies of a deaih-struggle. oil, the eleven resolutions of that platform will thine as a glittering diadem i:i political history forever and lorovo.-! You may not have read them of late days, but in the throes of olvil war, when all around us was tbe most frightful misery, this grand National I'nion Republican party mot in convention and sent forth to tho world In the midst of awful war tho bold, tho grand, the glorious declaration that the Union was paramount, (bat tho I nion was insopurable, that disunion was heresy fraught with tho foulest conso memes to mankind, and that there should bo no peace, no end to the war. except upon the terms of unconditional surrender. We do notquito appreclato it now, but then, gentlemen, you who are yet in the vigor of manhood know that then it was a living issuo then it was a cardinal principle. Uurn back and road those eleven ic.olutions. ou eau read them in twenty minutes. You will find no higher or grander utterance since tho Sermon on the Mount; no grander utterance than the Ten Commandments that came thundering through sniolie and llamo from tho top of Mount Sinai, thoe laws wiitton by the finger of Cod to last forever. Nowhere will you And a grander consummation. In 1888, drawing together all the consequences of the war, doal.nr with reconstruction, that troublesome question of tbo constitutional amendment', we came up ayain and said the constitutional amendments were to be respoctcd and obeyed, because they were right, not because they were s'mply law; and then we came on with our renewed declaration upon the tariff, and p it In substantially tbe ilrst resolution upon tho subject of civil service re:'orm. p'.odgnj the honor of tbe nation fiat the national debt should be paid, that the mttkmnl word should be faithfully kepi, and that e.ery dollar of the debt sboula le paid, vtr pledged tho honor of tho people for tbe payment of that debt. In 1872, still bringing forward these declarations and holding tbouT tu,ct.icr a n bouquet of beauty and power an.l sp e.sdor a tbing to cleetr.fy the hear, of o.ir,; man and woman in the lan I we w. lit sti I further. Giving those do.' arationj a new a; sortion, and putting in tbo tariif clause and the reformation of the civil ter.'ko, we denounced polygamy, and stood a,nin upon the continuod strength and beauty o. i.nion, an 1 so on until IH.0, when wo took up the question of national oducaton. And u til e we agreed that the States proper'.. h.:d coatrol of it, that tho National Uo.-crnmcnt should foster education throughout the land, wc took good care t put in a c ause that neither State nor nation should nppropi late mot ey for sectarian purposes, und proposed an amendment to the Consiitutio 1 of t'10 United States that money should not be appropriated by State or the Covernment for sect rian school purpose , but pledging ourselves to foster education; and but tho oth?r day our Senators who supported tho bill received tbo indorsement of public sentiment, and 1 have no doubt they feel very comlortab.e over it, for they both voted for It, voting to take out of the National Treasury your mono and mine, and the money of tbo American pe pie, $77,000.0X0, based upon tho cnlUl t-ncd rinciplo of illiteracy; not 1 ai-cd upon popu'n lion, but based upon illiteracy nceordlnsr to tbe census of 18.0. 60 that $i"..V00,u00 of our money Is to go and 1 say It with my heart and w ith uiy voco t day, so far as I am concerned, my heart will o with every dollar of it to com.non school oJu-'ation throughout tho United t'tates. Wo do bare a regard for tho lolored ptople. We did not only stand by them to break the calling chains tbat held them in abominable slavery; we d.d not only lil t tho.n up to 11 anhood and clothe them in tbo shining gnrinen.s cu American c.tioaslilp; wo did not only endow and eiiuip tl em wiih thu wondcrlul weapon, tho great po iticul b'.udg on or po lltical power, the right to v..te the right of suttrago; but, hovering about them s III in their manhood. In their citizeiiBbip, marching by tho side of them, yet we call upon tbe National Treasury, for thorn and their friends in the South, for millions an J millions of money, that they may not only bo free, but that they may have a good common school education. We have done this by ceaseless, watchful vigilance. It has been the vigilance of tbo party which has strengthened our Blorious Union, which has made our 1 eoplo happy and free. New things are coming upon tho theater constantly. Look at England, where they are wrestling with a domestic quostion. England 8,000 years old. England, nearly 1,000 years since tho Norman conquest, a strong and intelligent Government, good nd useful for its own purpose and she has dissensions and is dooi ly aroused. A Ministry is threatened to be removed from power, and, but for the assistance they obtain from the Parnoll party and from tho liberal thinkers of Ireland, Scotland, and England, Gladstone would not be able to tell what the result might be. And what is the question? To give 2,000,000 of living, immortal souls there the light to vote tbat never in this world have had tbat right. A question serious, vital to tho British Government to-day the old fundamental idea of suffrage. Why, groat Ood, don't tbey know, have they not always known, snail they not soon come to know as well aaye know, that voting Is the birthright of everjsian of every nationality upon God's green carta? ' This is tho centralising and vitalizing idea of manhood. It Is what makes the human soul a thing worth having. It is what makes man move upon this earth in the imago of God. And yot there to-day tbey are mouthing and fumbling in Great Britain as to whether so many Scotchmen, so many Irishmen, and so many Englishmen shall vote. But then wo have quostion s here still to demand our attention, not only in Illinois in regard to our statutes, in ro.urd to our taxes and revenue, and our criminal law, and all those interesting questions; but we have polygamy in Utah, those great questions of Interstate commerce, railroad communication those wonderful projects that now invade the whole country. Tbey are to be met, and also whether the Government should take tho telegraph lines and operate thorn, and ruako appropriations in case of an opldemle, of groat overflows, in tho interest of common schools, and legislate to dignify and lift up this great American people. Oh 1 we Uavo a 1 great deal of work for this Republican party j for the next quarter of a century; yea, for a thousand years to oome. ! BeKevo me in my concluding words for my cause. I have already announced my own j election that Is ilxod. 1 don't believe thero are many people in Illinois that really want to beat me. It would be the silliest thing in this world to seriously try to do it, 1 think after wisdom shall provoll, and deliberation shall provail, and patrotism shall prevail, and above all this great political and this great Republican economy of ours shall prevail, that somotrody will bo selected that this great Republican pirty an -I those other elements or our polittoal roolety floating aud flopping around alone, not just knowing where to tie to, not just knowing where to rest, will all quietly Hock In and you will see ns again triumphant. You will behold us again victorious, and then all tho great interests of the Nation will be at rest. The great money questions, the great quest ions of taxation, the great questions of tariff, aro to bo settled alono by this Republican party, and by none other. Oh I how wo have stood by tbo national credit; how we havo stood by 1 10 national honor; how wc havo bitllded up the nat onal glory! Gent'omon, do not talk about tbe past record of tbo Republican party; tho record is not past. 1 1 Is llko the Sermon on tho Mount. It is like tbo Ten Commandments. Are those now in the pasu Tho record of tne Itcpulil can party Is still being made. It Is still expanding. How can a record bo past when ou aro living upon ft? When you aro marching upon It to-day, when every gentleman in my pre enoe feels in His inmost heart, whon be tomos to reflect upon It. tbat he Is lifted up aivl dlarnitled by it There Is no man who is not p oud of itIt Is not a past accord; it Is an over'astlng record that will never bo post. It will go ou wiih u forever whllo w ro naln ho e, and, as tbo Chairman of tho meeting said Ibis morning in b's opening add o s. our political opponent thanks to thorn ior their op;x sition; thanks io tbo Doraooratio party for lighting us a little b:t; thanks to them for rating us a little; thanks to tlioin lor watching around on tbo hills, t io liitlo promontories, a id In tho thicicels, ani nlonr tbe little streams and rivulets, and in the burren and hopeless places, standing to watob and oriU-

else as, to pass In judgment upon our conduct It is the best test we can bave In this country. There Is no other party of breadth and scopo and strength enough to fill that place. And white we migbt hope to have a little hhihor standard of criticism, it is better, God knowB, than none. As our Chairman said this morning, allow mo to repeat tbat all thoughtful Democrats, men engaged in business airairs, our neighbors, our associates, who love good government, who love to see property rights protected and maintained, and who, I may hope, will yet come to sco the value, and beauty, and dignity of labor they, with these views, cannot help feeling otherwise than, as the Chairman eaid, satisfied und contented with tho powers of government in tbis country inlrustod to our bands. They know wo love tbo ropublloi thoy know wo lovo the nag; they know tbo national banner lias boon washod in the blood of Republicanism; they know that it stains its g.orious folds: they know how dearly wo love liberty; thoy know how no love luw ami order, and they know we will l ave law and order under republican riilo and domination; they know that we will have no Communism, lawlessness, riot, plunder, sodition, revolution, or devilment of any kind. Oli.no; wo aro a party of law aud order. We are a party that understands what justice means. We bave studied the hl?h dcnian Is or Justice. We know what we ta'k about when wo speak and legislate upon it. Wo know what liberty means. Wo kn jw what a good strong National I'nion moans. We know what Statetoveroignty, or State juri-diction, or St a to political puwer is. We know the boundary line between tho Nation and tho State. Thoy know we rcspott It. We have brightened the Hue; we bave made it more conspicuous in preserving honestly and sincerely, as wo havo always dono, tho rights of the States. We have still been able, thank God, by tho great power that wc wield ns a party; we have been able to go down into and evoke from tho Constitution those powers which wo have appliod there, and wbich have built up this great National Union, with amplo powers, -well defined, potent, omnipotent io good at home and abroad. Wo havo thus made a Government strong and firm, fixing deeply in the hearts of tho people liberty.

Beecher on Republicanism. My personal views and political conduct are of little value to the public, '. except so far as they ara anppoaed to : represent the views and purposes of s large and daily increasing number of silent voters. I have been a Bepubli can from the origin of that party, because it represented better than any other the doctrines of liberty and the ! conduct becoming a great nation in a : moral struggle with internal disease that was poisoning its blood. That in the long maroh from Egypt to the promised land it never committed a fault, 1 do not say. It waa a weary way, and unexplored, and Republicans were but men. It was the party of liberty as against slavery; the party of free speech as against intolerance. It boldly faced ; the threat of seoession and elected Lin- , coin. It had the courage to accept tho ' risks of war, rather than hack down in tho face of Southern threats. It was baptized in blood and proved worthy of 1 i's high calling. It had wisdom and courage to recompose the shattered columns of this Union, and give to it a : grandeur which has won the respect of the world. It met the bloated currency which the , war had induced, and brought back the current within the appropriate bounds. ; It never was charmed with tho Greenback system, but restored the dissolute ' theories to virtue. j In short, the Republican party has I had the courage to meet every issue j which has risen for twenty-five years I without suffering or evasion. It has j had a clean policy, and it has had that , supremo virtue of parties courage ' conrage courage. - Henry Ward Beecher, in Chicago Tribune.

Col. Ingehsoli. is looking around for a "dark horse," and is reported as ' saying: "The Plumed Knight of Maine aga u has the strength in the lists, and this time his chances look good for se- , curing the nomination. Whom I am ; for is another question. If I could ' have the privilege of naming the man, I would choose Justice John M. Har- I la", of tbe Supreme Bench. The . French have a saving that 'It is the unexpected that always happens.' Gar-, field was not much talked about in '.. 1880. The dark horse may once more ; be the winner, despite the great show '. of hands for Blaine. He has the whip- , hand now, it is certain. If the issue is , drawn on the tariff, we may gain Louisiana on account of her sugar mnnufactare. The Republicans can succeed without carrying New York, and the chances are better than four years ago. ', Democratic protectionists have lost ' faith in the free-traders, and Democratic free-traders are also disgusted with the protectionists fully enough j votes to give ns the election."

Most of the Republican Senators who are not themselves candidates are comi ing to Chicago on the business of President-making. Sewell heads the dele--. gation from New Jersey. Ben Harri- . son comes from Indiana. Senator Cnl- , lorn will lead the Logan hosts of Illinois. Hale and Frye will probable come from : Maine. Hoar will, of course be sent by Massachusetts, and perhaps Dawes. ; Morrill will bo here from Vermont to ' help the Edmunds boom. Warner Miller will probably head the New York ! delegation. Colorado is likely to send : its two Senators, and Sabin from Minnesaota will be on the ground. Senator : Miller of California and Senator Tan ' Wyctif Nebraska have declined to serve as delegates, as the national bus- . in ess will occupy their time at Wash- ' ington. It is not known whether either ! of the Iowa Senators will attend as a delegate. One of them may be a dark ' horse. Tbe American House of Lords will in any case have a goodly repre- I sentation. Chicago Tribune.

If Mr. McDonald lived in the eastern portion of Pennsylvania, in New Jersey, i or in New York, that great inoubator of Democratic candidates, he would stand some chance of nomination. But tho ; accident of residence will prove fatal to '; his canvass for the nomination by his party. New York furnishes the candidates for the Democratic party, while the South and West aro content to do '. the voting. Indianapolis Journal. '

Beauty of Flowers. Of all the minor creations of God, flowers seem to be the most completely the effusions of His love of beauty, grace, and joy. Of all the natural objects that surround ns, they are the least connected with our absolute necessities. Vegetation might proceed, the earth might be clothed with a sober green, and all the processes of fructification might be perfected without being attended by the glory with whioh the flower is crowned; but, beauty and fragrance are poured abroad over the earth in blossoms of endless varieties, radiant, evidences of the boundless benevolence of the Deity, They are made solely io gladden tho heart of man ; for a light to his eyes ; for a living inspiration of grace to his spirit; for a perpetual admiration; and accordingly thoy seize on our affections the first momont that wo behold them. Of all tho poetry over drawn from flowers, none is so sublime, none is so beautiful, none is so imbued with that very spirit in which they were made as that of Christ. "And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how thoy grow; they toil not, neither do they spin ; and yet I say unto you that Solomon, in all his glory, was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefor, if God so clotho tho grass of the field, whioh to day is, aud to-morrow is oast into the oven, shall He not much more clotho you, oh, jo of little faith ?" The sentiment built upon this entiro dependence on the goodness of the Creator is one of the lights of our existence, and could only have been uttered by

Christ. Towi(i.

All doubts as to the fate of the steamship State of Florida are ended, says a Quebeo dispatch. The vessel was sunk April 18 in a collision iu mid-ocean with the bark Ponoma of Chatham, N. B. Out Of 107 per sons on board the State of Florida, dill forty-four were saved, while of the bark's crew of fifteen only the captain nnd two men wore rescued. Ono hundred and twenty-three souls went down with tho steamer aud twelve with the bark, making a total loss of 135. Those saved were picked up by the bark Theresa of Norway, loiter twenty-four of them were put on" the bark Louisa and brought as far as the mouth of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, where the Titania, bound from Glasgow to Montreal, was met. The Titania took off twenty-four of the passengers and crew rescued from the State of Florida, leaving twenty on the bark, which ia now on its way to this port. The following is the official report of the third officer of the State of Florida: "Left Now York April 12, with about 167 passengers and crew, and a full general cargo. All went well until the night of the 18th. At 11:30 o'clock we came m collision with the bark Ponema, of Chatham, N. B.,

Capt. Hetburu. Both fchrps went down almost instantly, and out of the steamer's passengers and crew only f orty-f onr, including tho stewardess, managed to escape in the boot and out of tho bark's crew of fifteen only the captain and two seamen were saved. The nest morning tho bark was ob served bottom up. The survivors, after being thirty-five hours in the boats without food or "water, were rescued by the Norwegian bark Theresa, of Christiania, bound from that port for Quebec. On the 23d, twenty-four of them were transferred on board the ship Louisa, of and from Cardiff for Quebeo, where they remained until May 5, when they were taken on board the Titania for Quebec. It is believed that 135 lives were lost." The third officer (James Allen) says that tho night on which the disaster occurred was clear, though moonless, and the sea as smooth as glass. He retired to his bank at 8 o'clock, leaving the chief officer (Thompson) in charge of the deck. Abont 11:10 he heard a signal suddenly given to stop the steamer's engines, followed by a fearful crash. He rushed immediately on deck, and the first thing he noticed was a red light pretty close to their starboard bow. At the same moment he heard the chief officer's voice and the cry "Collision." He then saw tho bark which had run into them go down. Tbis bark, he afterward learned from its captain and two of its crew who were saved, was the Ponema, of Chatham, N. B., bound from Liverpool to Mirimichi. Running to the side of his own vessel, he endeavored to ascertain the damage done, and perceiving an immense gaping hole into which the sea was fast pouring, and feeling the steamer was lost, he at once hurried to the captain, who immediately gave orders to get ont tho boats, four of which were down in fifteen minutes, when tho State of Florida just keeled over to port and went down stern foremost. Far as he could calculate, the disaster occurred about 120 miles off the Irish coast As the vessel went down, all on deck, including the captain, were washed off by, the sea. The captain was exceedingly cool too cool, in met, as he did not seem to look upon the danger as serious or pressing; and this, together with the fact that he appeared in no hurry to save himself, was probably the cause why more of the passengers were not saved. They would not take to the boats, as they supposed, when they saw him so cool, that the danger was not so great Of the eight bouts carried, four were safely launched, nnd two were smashed by the collision. Of the other two Allen knew nothing, but believed they were washed away when the steamer went down. He did not believe any one had escaped in them. However, if they had he did not want to raise any false 'hopes, his opinion being they wonld never be heard from again. When No. 2 boot was being lowered the tackle was cut too quickly and its occupants, all passengers, were upset into the sea. A number, including Bennett, of London, Canada, clung to the boat's bottom during the remainder of the night and were picked np in the morning by the other boats. James Bennett, of London, Ontario, the only first-class passenger saved, says that when the order was given a rush was made for the boats, and a number of persons, including himself, got into boat No. 2. The panic on board the doomed ship was frightful. The lady passengers, of whom there were only three or four, refused to go in tho boat Jane MoFarlane, the stewardess, was only saved from herself and the terrible fate impending by the self-sacrifice and gallantry of James Bain, the chief engineer, who lost his life in saving hers. He had to use all his strength to tear her from the deck of the vessel and force her into the boat. At that moment the ship careened to starboard and went down, carrying with her the brave engineer aud all the others remaining on board. Bennett was standing so near the side when the eollisiou took place that-had not a friend pulled him away he would have been killed on the spot. The ship's doctor, alongside of him, was injured by a broken spar. The crew all rushed for the boats. The passengers Beemed paralyzed, as did also the captain, who was washed from the deck just before the vessel went down, within twelve minutes of the tinie she was struck. Allan, tho third officer, was the first to give the alarm that tho vessel was sinking. Bennett Bays he pushed a number of friends into one of the boats and jumped in himsel. He complains that the boat had no water-casks containing water. He added that the City of Borne ignored all the Theresa's signals, although they were seen quite well, but went on her way unconcernedly, offering no assistance. James Patience, an American seaman, said he was in his bank when he heard the signals to stop and reverse the steamer's engines. He rushed on deck, and saw a light bearing down on their starboard. He heard one of the officers stout "Collision!" This was followed by a terrific crash, and shortly afterward he saw the third officer going to the side with a globe lamp to ascertain tbe damage. Ho followed, and, looking over, saw a hole about six feet Rquare, through which the water was pouring in volumes. Those on duty at the thus remember seeing a red light flash for an instant, followed by an instantaneous crash, after which there was nothing but confusion and hurried preparations to launch the boats. The frightened passengers rushed on deck iu their night-olothes. Women went into hysterics, and men refused to more. The women especially objected to leaving the doomed vessel, some who could have been easily saved absolutely refusing to budge an inch. Those who clung to the bottom of the capsized boat all night suffered terribly from the icy-cold water, though the sea was calm. One of their number, a man named Donaldson, was underneath the capsized boot until thoy were picked up by one of the boats in the morning. When she capsized he kcj)t his hold nnd went over with her, managing to i-ecure a position above the bars, where he remained bilking to himself and moaning, until he swooned. His companions on the onteide were unable to assist him. In the morning, when they were picked np, the boltom of the boat had to be broken through to get him out. CLIPPINGS.
