. THE CINCINNATI PLATFORM. - - The national republican convention, assembled to name a new candidate for the Presidency and to put forth a new platform of principles, 'vfs bro’t tace to face with two- imperative issues—financial recuperation and administrative reform. Thereceipts of the Treasury this year are twenty millions short of the estimates, the country is still filled with that paralyzing spectré that precedes and follows business disaster—the loss of confidence. . Capital is idle, labor is suffering.. ‘Only the official thieves ‘who are burrowing in the vaults of the public treasury appear to prosper. ‘What remedy is proposed by the re‘publican platform for these evils’ which lie-at the door of Radlcalism? The resolutions put forth, so far as their utterance is clear in anything; propose to go into the Presidential campaign “shouting the battle cry of freedom.” =No scheme of financial ~policy is endorsed; the revenue, the _curreney, the international taxation of ‘the country are slighted off with the ‘most vague -and unmeaning phrases. Administrative reform, as understood Eat' Cincinnati, is illuminated and its 'meaning illustrated by the endorse‘ment of the foreign and domestic policy of the Grant administration, which ‘includes Schenck and Sickles abroad ‘and Babcock and Belknap at home.

Inpiac. e wre 07 policy now forceu «, - : o of the country, the people of tuo « ’ ed States are insulted with a display of gimerack politics which might have originated with Nast or Nasby. ~ In- ' terference is proposed with the public | school system of the States, with the Tight of immigration and emigration’ in the person of John Chinaman, with the status of women and their rela‘tion to the .domestic affairs of the States, and with the question of polygamy in Utah. The fearful spectacle of the Southern States.again participating in a fair and free election for President of the United States is held up for public reprobation. Upon such husks as-these, says the Harrisburg Patriot, it is proposed to feed and. satisfy an anxious people durin}; a campaign involving a change of administration and the conduct of affairs for the next four years. At the same time the country is eaten up with official corfuption, prostrated by business disaster, and threatened with the dreadful alternative of increased taxation or national bankruptey.

| ¥rightful Massacres. , ~ LoNDoXN, June 23.—The Daily News publishes a letter from its Constanti‘nople :correspondent, dated June 16, giving details of atrocities committed in Bulgaria: by the Bashi Bazouk, Turkish irregular troops. The writer says .that all movable property has ‘been plundered, houses and: villages burned, and old men, women and children indiscriminately slaughtered. It is estimated that the province, which heretofore yielded to the government an anuualrevenue of .$4.00n.000, will ‘not -pay one quarter that sum this year, or for years to come:. Various estimates place the number of lives sacrificed at from 18,000 to 380,000. The .correspondent names thirty-sey-en villdges known te have been destroyed. Among the refugees, the number of whom is very small, there is not a girl over ten years of age in the village of Serustitza, district of Phillipolis, 1,500 persons were killed. This village consisted 6f 400 houses, and *was prosperous and . peaceful. Every house has beenr burned, and all the inhabitants killed except a few women and children who took refuge in Phillipolis, and some women who were carried off by the Bashi Bazouks. ‘These cruelties have made a great impression at’ Constantinople, and the English ambassador has intervened :hieth the government to put an end to ms 3 i s e S

SAMUEL'J. TILDEN, OF NEW ~ YORK, THE SUCCESSFUL o eANDIDATE & -

Thomas A. Hendricks, of ~ Indiana,for Viee - - ¢ Presdent.

“IA HARD MONEY PLATFORM., - “*~flernand, of Illinois, General muo. " e 5 : Permanent Chairman. PARTIAL EEPORT OF THE PRO- , CEEDINGS. - The advance guards of the Demo-: oératic hosts which were jselected to place in nomination candidates for the first- position in our natién began to “assemble at St. Louis on Thursday of last week; every train bringing large crowds of enthusiastic supporters ofthe different cauglidates. The largest and fiercest crowds came from New

York, and everything pertaining to the nomination gave way before them. The wrangle and jangle was fierce, and for a time fears were entertained that a split would be the result, but wetter things prevailed and Tammany, defeated atrevery point, retired from the field.. Tt is not too much to say that the actions of the large delega‘tionsent from New York for- the express purpose of 'def;eating Mr. Tilden had more to do Wltll' the success of that gentleman than anything else. ‘The timé at which we go to press precludes the giving of a detailed report of all that transpired. = . On Sunday a conference meefzing of Gérman delegates was held in the interest of Mr. Tilden, which was largely attended. iy In the count . of noses prior to the organization it was conceded that Mr. F.‘ilden could depend upon over 400 votes upon the first ballot. ¢ - | Nothing was done oanohday outside of consultation meetings of dele_gates and the working up of chances f for different candidates. It was pre¥ sumed that a compromise candidate ‘would be placed in nomination. Indiana’s favorite son seems to have

stood 110 chance in the great fight,and, 11ke Morton, is left in the cold, al‘though a more enthusiastic lot of supporters was never sent to any.convention in the interest of any one man. ~ On Tuesday at 18 minutes past 12 o’clock the convention was called to ‘order by Hon. Augustus Schell, of New York, Chairman of the National Democratic Committee;, who briefly stated the objects of the convention and proceeded in a short but pointed speech to outline the greatissues pending before the country—the contest between administrative extravagance and corruption on the one hand, and honesty and economy on the other. ‘He said the momentious issue cannot ‘be overlooked; that administrative reform is demanded by the American people of every class. The Government must be purified and elevated. The Speaker reférred briefly to the finance question; the subtle and adroit effort on part of the republican party to_eharge. upon the Democracy the 'present condition of affairs, notwithstanding the fact that that party has from its origin and through all the time of its e’xistenc.ef been knewn as the hard-money party of the country; that all acts of the Government recognizihg the issue of paper money, the action of the Supreme Court declaring thioso aoto constitutional were'all done and performed during the existerce, and by the authority of the republican party. Democrats are called upon to apply the remedy. To this end, he recommends, as the demand of every honest man and reasonable Democrat, the repeal of the resumption.act and strict economy in the administration of the government, and assures the people: that under democratié rule the time is not far distant when specie payments will be resumed, the prosperity of the country restored, and the whole American people happy. In reférring to the nominations, he hoped the eonvention would nominate men . whose character and position as-states-men, are pure and stainless; that in the promulgation of a platform the convention would act wisely and in accordance with the principle ‘that those are best governed who are least governed. i e

The speaker then proposed the name of Mr. Henry Watterson, of Kentucky, as temporary chairman of the convention. Mr. Watterson assumed thie duties of the chairmanship in a neat and becoming speech, and proceeded to business. - . Thaa ;

Mr. Fredrick O. Prince, or Massachusetts, was named for temporary Secretary, and Messrs. .. 0, Walker, of lowa, and T. K. Doniphan, of Ohio, as agsistant secretaries. The ‘necessary committees were then appointed to complete the organization and _proceed with the work of the convention,

| Miss ProEBE CouZINS, of St. mmfie from the National ‘Womian/Suffrage: Association, _appeared before the convention and, ‘ina vhr!%%idylifiléspeech, presented ‘aformal address from that bedy, in which they claimed the right of suf‘frage for woman and asked the Demderacy of the United States to pledge themselves to assist in securing their rights. - Accompanying this address was the following plank for. ‘the Democratic platform: - = WHEREAS, The democratic .party was the first to abolish the property qualification and extend the right of suffrage to all white men in ‘som® of the older States; and ' b ‘WHEREAS, ‘¥t ‘Wwas a democratic legislature that extended the right of sufgrage to women of Wyoming; thereore, ; ey

Resolved, That we pledge ourselves to secure the right of suffrage to the women of the United States on equal terms with men. Sa

Thé above memorial and resolutions were referred to the Committe on Resolutions, after which the convention adjourned till 5 o’clock. , * PERMANENT. ORGANIZATION! ‘ + The convention re-assembled in the evening and effected a permanent organization, with Gen, John A. McClernand, of Illinois, in the chair. The temporary secretaries, with Mr. Prince as chief, were retai'ne_d as working secretaries. Gen. McClernand, on assuming the chairmanship, spoke at some length, after which, the Committee on Resolutions not 'being ready to report, ‘Hon. August. Belmont, of New York, entertained 'the convention with an enthusiastic address, which was freauently ntérrupted by cheers and ap- ‘ "wring the evening,speeches s ; ' T ~=. Voorheés and plaqse. ¢ drue * e were also made by Dau.. s S. S. Cox, both of which were enuu... astically received.: .. - Sy |

. From what we can gather, thus far, it is difficult to- predict the probable’ result. A dispateh from the editor of Tue BANNER, dated, St. Louis, June 97th, says: “I have tried two or three times to indite an editorial correspondence, but in vain. The excitement and commotion are so great that an effort at writing is simply an impossibility. Our delegation has been kept busy taking care of Mr. Hendricks’ interests, which, I am free to confess,’ are oxtrembly weak. Tilden is way ahead, and the probabilities now are that he will be noinated on thé se ‘ ‘ond or third ballot. The Tilden me% ‘are anxious, to nominate Hendricks for Vice President, but Hendricks positively refuses.” » At 8 o’clock last evening a dispatch. was received, announcing that a hardmoney platform had been adopted by alarge majority. = oy

The next order of business will be the nomination of a candidate for vice president, and the roll call has reached Indiana. Loud cheering! THE VERY LATEST. ‘ . St. Lovuis, June 29, 11:30 AuM. Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks, of Indiana, has been nominated for Vice President. . The country is all ablaze! e - B—— Blaine’s Audacious Assault on Proc- ‘ ~ tor XXnott. | (From the Huntington Democrat.) We publish the latest developments in the Blaine-Caldwell cablegram matter in another column. Some weeks before the republican nomination at Cinecinnati, Mr. Blaine, who|was a candidate there for nomination, made a vile attack, on the floor of Congress, ‘on Mr. Knott, chairman of one of the investigating committees, charging him with suppressing a telegram from London which was calculated to exonerate him from the charge of receiving bonds from the. Little Rock railroad as a bribe. When the telegram was received Mr. Knott read it to the committee, hut declared it was not evidence. | Because it was not at once made public, Mr. Blaine went before the House, and defying all rules, succeeded in making a partisan appeal for himself and 'an assault upon several of the committee. The audacity of the act raised the admiration of his republican party friends and came within a few votes of securing the nomination at the Cincinnati convention. ‘Within a few days it has transpired that the dispatch wag, dictated on this side of the Atlantic, telegraphed over .and telegraphed back to aid Mr. Blaine’s chances. It must be humiliating, to Blaine and his friends to be thus detected in a disreputable trick.

~ The full account of Crook’s engagement with the Sioux Indians, in Montana, reveals’'the unpleasant fact that our blue-coats.got much the worst of it. They advanced forty miles from their base of supplies to accomplish a specific object, to-wit,'the destruction of the Sioux village on the Rosebud river. They met the Sioux, had a fight, did not accompkish the object for which they set .out, and were obliged' to fall back upon .their base 'of supplies to await the arrival of reinforcements. T i

- -Willaim A. Wheeler, the republican nominee for Vice-President, voted for the Texag Pacificland grant of 16,000,000 acres. He also voted for all the supplementary legislation asked by the' Northern Pacific, and voted down amendments requiring the sale of lands only to actual settlers. Mr. Wheeler has been, during. his seven years’ continuous ser'vice in Congress, the untiring advocate of railroads and jobbing interests. : 5

The -Maine 'pegple are determined, they say, to remember Massachusetts because she prevented the nomination of Blaine. This reminds the Lewistown Journal of (the old lady who was a good deal irritated because she was not invited to a.neighbor’s funeral. “Some time,” says she, “we will have a funeral in our family, and we'll see then who'll be invited!”

The Utiea OQbserver, published at Conkling’s home, says: “It is conced-. ed on all sides that Mr. Hayes is an exceedinly nice sort of a man. Ben Butler certifiés -to ' his. honesty and Schuyler Colfax to' his piety. But if he waits for Utica to ‘enthuse’ him into the White House he will be the senior to Methuselah by several centuries before he gets there.”

“An Interesting Letter from Col. S. L f‘g‘m,,wo%%%x e “To the Bditor of The R%ap fi@nenfi g | . DEAR SlR:—Having a few leisure ‘hours this afternoen, I will improve ‘thémi by writing te the readers of THE BANNER, My last letter was written at Custer City, April 6th. Since then Smith; “Dick”and T have spent most ~of our time in prospecting. ; { Haying formed rather a poer opin“ion of French Creek’ (on which Custer City is located), we moved about fifteen miles north, on Spring Creek, near Hill City, and located some claims. But failing to find anything more than ‘plenty of boulders and.gravel, we concluded to strike further north, April 20th found us encamped on Bear Butte Creek,.a tributary of the north fork of the Cheyenne. - Here we toiled like | beavers in digging a ditch and build‘ing 'a dam, in order to change the ‘channel of the creek to prospectits ‘old bed. But, after all our toil -and sweat, we failed"to find the object of our search.

~ We next prospected on Fir Creek, a tributary to Bear Bptte. Here we found fair prospects, but water insuf--ficien tfor sluiting. (I herewith enclose. twenty cents’ worth of the . gold we found on this, creek.) Hear: ing of rich-diggings about eight miles to the.north-west of us, we struck tent and pulled out or White Wood Creek. On reaching hews, we were utterly surprised at ' finding White Wood (inlch teeming with busy miners. and the banks of the creek lined with cabins,and tents, for miles. T'he principal tributary to the White Wood is. Dead Wood. This guleh; if possible,;. ’ “~ a more lively appearance’ presents, . i Some of the richthan White Wooa. . = | ¥h Blaeck est mines yet discovered in L - Hills, or anywhere else,'since the discovei'y of the fameus Alder Guleh, in Montana, have been found on White Wood and its tributaries. .~ . Miners from all parts of the Hills are flocking to this place. These discoveries have given a new impetus to I the mining interestsof the Black Hills, and many who were on the point of ‘returning home have taken new courage. Cities, are springing ‘up like 'magic in this new eldorado. = Crook City, at the mouth of White Wood, Elizabeth City, twelve miles up White § Wood, Dead Wood City, at the mouth of Dead Wood Creel and half a mile; above Elizabeth (the two are now blended in one). Gayville (the only town in the Hills which makes no pretensions toward beidg a, “cify”), is quite a thriving place, two miles above Dead Wood City. Centennial City, .one mile above Crook, is yet an embryo, but big things are anticipated by its projectors. - Gl

‘Rapid Hill and Custer City, in the southern part of the Hills, are about “piked out,” and unless something better is found there than has yet been discovered, these monuments of architectural. skill, like Thebes and Athens, will have reached ‘tl}é zenith of their glory. C ]

v ‘The minifig ground on White Wood and its tributaries has all been taken up, and the only chance now is to buy a claim. Sowme idea may be formed of the richness of these mines when I tell you that over two thousand dollars have been taken out of one claim in a day, worked by eight miners. How is this for $l4 a day for hands? Smith says: “Let the man in the brick saloon by the Ligonier House answer.” Wages in the mines range from $4 to $6 per day, boarding not included. At present I would not advise any one to come to the Hills, unless they have a few spare hundred dollars or wish to work in the mines, and which, I can agsure my readers, is not pleasant by: any means. | - o

The Indians have comitted several depredations, mostly in the sGuthern part of the Hills and on the Cheyenne and~Yankton routes. Wé anticipate fio trouble from them here. Some scouts have been employed, however, to keep a sharp look-out, in case they should see fit to make an‘attick. | Before closing, I will endeavor to give your readers a brief description of the Black Hills, as far as my observation extends: The Black Hills are a clear cut, well defined mountain mass, thrown up in the midst of an almost boundless plain. Their flank, for the most part is very abrupt, p?‘re-'. senting an almost perfect wall. . {On entering them, the mind is filled with wonder and amazement, as it contemplates these mighty upheavals, especially in the vicinity of Harney’s Peak. Here strata of rock, hundreds of feet: in thickness, have been thrown up, until they stand almost vertical. Is this the result of ‘one mighty instantaneous upheaval, or is it the gradual work of ages? But what is more pleasing to the eye than all else pertaining to the Hills, espegially after having spent several days upon the open plains, are the beautiful pine forests that greet you on all sides. These forests of pine, with their peculiar, dark green foliage, cover the major po}tiOn'of the hills. Game, such as deer and elk, are quite plentiful, and Smith, with Ris unerring “Betsey,” succeeds in keeping our. larder well supplied with venison. Pheasants, too, are numerous, and afford up many 'a delicious repast. Fish, I am sorry to say, are scarce. The largest I have ye% found were a species of small suckers, and I think T may safely say that there is not a man in the Black Hills that has an eye more to fishing than'l have. Our mails are iery uncergain, those blasted “red skins” having taken it in several times. - 8. M. ZENT.
