& January *8, 1 $68. In accordanoo with jil pmyious fsrill of tho Central CommfJ|ce, Uwon Repjiblican parly ~.Mqlritgotnery courftj7 met in mass convention at tho Court Iiousq. in thicit^ on Satutdaj'. January 18, 18G8. Tho convention was called to order by P. S. Kennedy. Esq., Chairman of tho Central Cotrimittcc, and on motion Hon. Harvey Harbison .was chosen perm anon t-Chair-mah iand B. F. Peirccf Secretary•"oif tho meeting. In assuming tho dutios of tho chair Mr. Harrison acknowledged the compliment in a nO'at and appropriate speech.
On motion, a, committee of tho following gentlemen was appointed to draft and present resolutions to the convention, viz: Messrs. Kennedy. Butler, Sn}7der, Speed and Milligan.
On further motion, tho following committee was appointed to select delegates to attend the State Convention at Indianapolis on the 20th of February, viz: Messrs. Beard, Gaiey, Blair, Elmoro.and Ramsoj*.
The committees then withdrew, and ex-Senator Lane moVed that tho convention take a recess of fifteen minutes to give the committees time to i*cport, but the convention, wisely thinking that tho time could bo better apent in listening to a speech from tho maker of tho motion, promptly voted no, and amid numerous cries for "Lane" tho Colonel took tho stand and soon gave evidence that tho patriotic zeal which has ever marked his course as an earnest Republican has by no means departed. IIo referred to tho history of the Republican party since its advent into power, and declared his faith in its .principles unshaken, and that to that party alone ho looked for tho welfare of the country in tho future. He paid a handsomo tribute to tho character of tho two men most prominently mentioned in connection with the Presidential candidacy, and expressed an unwavering confidence of victory under tho leadership of either.
At the close of Mr. Lane's speech tho Cornm ittee on resolutions, through its Chairman, Mr. Kenned}"-, presented the following, which were unanimously adopted
adm-nister it in peace, and that traitors shall havo no placo in tho councils of our nation. 2. .That tho vory idea of* the power and right of tho peoplo to establish government pic-supposes the duly of every individual to obey tho established government, and that it was tho failure of tho Democratic party, in I860, to abido b}* this most solemn and binding obligation that plunged tho countr}7 into a bloody civil war, which has tilled the land with mourn-
debt under which they must groan for years, and whicb has reduced one half of the country to a condition ol anarchy, beggary, and universal sorrow and gloom. i*. That our enormous public, debt does not, as charged, represent what tho Republican party expended in administering the Government, but rather what it cost the Government to subduo and control an unscrupulous and traitorous party, which rofusod to submit to the result of a Co?u tit.ulioim! election at which it was defeated by the deliberate choice of the people. 4. That no language can express our abhorrence of tho proposition which has been submitted by the Democratic party, to abandon the tried and true Union men of the rebellious States to tho cruel and inhuman despotism that has for years sought to crush thorn, down by overy form of tyrrany known to the most barbarous and inhuman despots of the world driving them from their homes through the terror of "Vigilance Committees" and banded "Regulators," confiscating their property without even the forms of law, and in many instances murdering them- outright, all for no other reason than that they refused to join an insane and wicked' crusade aguinst t'jo National Government. 5. "That.wo approve and endorso tlic reconstruction measures of Congress, anil th.nt wo can never consent to an}* plan of reconstruction which gives to tho lato rebel States a representation in Congress based on tho.oolorod population of thoso States, with that population excluded from all participationin tho Government. To do so would bo but paving the way, through selfabasement, for the virtual urislavernent and degradation of tho peoplo of tho loyal States. 6. That tho Republican party is, and always has been, in favor of paying tho national debt in strict accordance w.ith the laws by which itwas created with gold where it is so stipulated, and lawful currency of the Country in all cases where tho law so provides. 7. That tho emergency requiring tho bonds and securities representing tho debt of tho Government to bc ex empt from taxation having passed, we aro in favor of changing tho bonded debt intd such a form as to compel the obligations and securities of tho Government in tho hands of Government creditors to beat their full and equal pro])ortion of taxation. 8. That we are opposed to the contraction policy of Secretary McCu!-: loch, and that wo are equally opposed to tho inflation theory .callod by.'tho Democracy the Pendleton scheme buf that if the 'business interests'of'the

John M. Butler, Esq., of this place, was then called on, who gavo the convention one of his happiest efforts.

Accidents.
The Oskaloosa Herald gives tho particulars of a moat horrible accident which occurred in Union township, in tho north part of that county, on New Years ovo. Two young boys, aged nino and eleven years, sons of Mr. Mincer, desiring to celebrate the advent of tho Now Year, produced a pound of powder, and going to a stump back of the barn, bored a hole therein and deposited the powder, and taking a straw rope, set fire to it, intending to uso it as a fuse, but not burning to suit them, they went up to and commenced to blow it, when suddenly tho powder ignited, tearing tho stump into a thousand pieces, blowing the whole lower part tho older boy's faca off, from tho eyes down, and of course, killing him instantly. The younger was badly bruised about tho breast and chest, and had a snag driven in under his right eye. He was yet living, when Mr. McCall saw him. but no hopo was entertained of his recovc-ry.
