The Republicans Dacline to Nominate » Staln Ticket—\Vhat tho Dmnocracy Have Dane for the Crippting of the Ntate, Moxreosery, July 5.—The Republican State Convention, which met yesterday, adjourned late lnst night. A resolutlon indorsing Presi- dent Hlares for his wise and patriotic polley was laid un the table; also o resolution to nominata n State Ucket. The platforni is violent in de- nunciation of the Democrats of the State. When the Democratie party, by force and fraud, obtained possession of the State Gov- eroment in November, 1870, the people of this State, of all classes and cunditions, were rapldly recovering the great losses reallzed durlng the War; property was enhaucing I value; immigration was pourlug in trom all quarters; internal improvements, fostered and cucouiazed by Republicaus, were fn s most flourishing conditfon; taxes were reasonsble and casily met, and prosperity was holdiug out smiling faces thronghout the Commonwealth. + wise and fadiclons managetent, the Repube lean Admin{stration had in two years—180%-"60 restored the credit of the State in the money markets of the country, In the short space ol two years the Demo- cratic Admistration had involved Alnbama fn litigatton that lias cost humdreda of thousands of duilars, destroyed tha good namo of the State abroad, caused fta bonds to depreciate 50 per cent, and squandered the tasee vl tho peoplo in paying lawyers' fees fu the itigation they caiiseil, When the Republican State ticket, on account of all these disgraceful causes, suceeeded fn re- celvipgan overwhelming majority at the polls, ln November, 1872, these Democratle leaders absolutely attewpted to Ioaugurate a revolu. tun by gétting up a Lezistuturebiers and threat- ening to resori to arms if the Hopublicans did not submit. The bistory of that ‘attempt is well known ta the readers of the Gazetle, and need not be repented here. The Repubican Administration of 1573-'71 succeeded tou very great extent in undoing the mischict of thelr redevessors. The free publicsenoo! systom naugurated by the first Republicnn Administra- tion (i 1508 had also been nearly deatroyed by the Democratie authorities in 1S71-'73, and de- manded constant carc to recover, _Under this splendld system every poor chlld'in Alavama Jermany ‘he 1nt er. Winsiow, lTowa; Rarlow Campbell, enjoyed the means of obtalnfog educa- tion. Black aud white were allko re- cipients of this great Dblesstng, and the Republican nrLy would ~ have cmbraced every poor white man fu Alabama {u its runxa but for the violent opposition of the Demuocracy to the splendld frec-setivol system. Every feature of the epublican Admninistration that secured good to the people of Alabama was denounced so Incessantly that thiey polsoned the minds of the whits peopls by thelr appeals to passlon, prejudice, and resentment, For want ot newspapers thronghout the State, the Repunlivan party hod uo means of counteract- ing the poison that the Democratfc munagers Infused throughout the Commonwenith, These muuagers had no respect for truth vr candor. They not unly orranlzed the murderous Ku- Kiux tuoutrage aud murder Republican citizens, but. they chinrized in scerevand i pubtie that the Republfean Teaders were endeavoring to break duwn the barriers between thie races, and gurate o general sys- temn of miscegenation and protect it by law. Inthe fnterior and remote couuties and communitics of the State this charge was ne- ceptel as true, and no white Repubiican dared to ralse his izad 0 such communities for sover- al years. The hlstory of Clirlstian clvillzation may be scarched i vain for o parallel to the crugelties, outrares, and indignities practiced by the so-called Demoeratie and Conservative lead- - ra fu Alabaina, in their infainons warfare upon white and black citizeus who supported the Ite- publican party.

A Democrat, bitter and vindictive, to-day represunts a district 1o which thero Is a Republlcau mujorlty of more than 10,000, By fruud and _force the Republleans of Alubowns have been devrived of four Hepresentatives In Cungress, & wrong which the people of o North- crn Btate would never subinit to, or recognize if perpetruted. But how can Republicans iix thy attention of_the country upon these lnfamous outrages! They luve not o single newspaper lu Alabamy, They have no strong and fulluential Iriends at tho North who seem willing to cham- plon thelr rlizhts. A new spportionment wus ude fur the Southern States on sccount of the colured vote, and Alubama wus glven two addl- tloual mewbers of Congress: Other Southern States wero also given Irom une to four nesw wem- bers, In Alabuina the colored vote has been feighi- ened fntosllence, and at the last election but few went Lo the polls, beentse they knew that L wus useless, Tho Demucratic leaders did the couut- ing, und elected every member from this State —Dby thelr count, flere, then, isan eyl that must ba throttleld now, or it may grow luto ;uchlnmuonluul that fv wiil defy law and just- ce nlke, ‘The Democrats have nominated a ticket for State ofllcers from Governor dowa. ‘The mouth- pieees of the Democracy bave served notlee upon o}l white mew In Alabaws that they will brook no vpuposition to thelr ticket.

Dr. McCliesney preached at the Park Avenue Methodist Cherch last evening, taking as his subject, '*What Shall e Done withi Wite-Murderers]* and his test ns follows: "}‘ulrn‘thn earth 1s filled with violence.—Genesis, He sald God was represented In the text s looking upon the carth and finding reasons for the coming deluge, Gud sald ‘“the earth is corrupt,—all flesh had covrupted its wav,—I will deatroy them from tho earth”! The spenke er then asked lLow this corruptivn had been manifested, and procceded to say that 1t was by violence, as given in the text, and that man was adark body casting a shadow gwherever he went. God saw that it were better to have a depopulated earth than to have it poopled with Leings out of whose natures the nobllity of manhood had ex- 'The kind of violence referred to was be- «d by mauy critics, he sald, to be the kind which makes womau the victiny, and, althouzh the world had changed, God bad not changed in His diaposltion toward vilencas. Wiien Abel, tho flest victiin of violenco, foll, God Jxrumplly arralgned the murderer and visited hitn * with unbearable ouvishment. Wlhen Nosh and his_ faumly went forth to repopulate the earth God enacted a rolentless law to restraln viotence. “Who sheddeth mau's blood, by man aball his blood be shed, for {n the image of tiod made Hg man,” This, tho speaker contended, waus the higheat reason why arder should not b committed, —it was an aspault upun the image of God. ‘I'liers was o uvisible realm of thought whers man bo- came cousclous of Immurtal hopes and fears, and in this yeaim he mot his Uod, and was found to resemble Him. To make s deadly assault un such a being was an fnsult to tho throve, un in- vusiou ot God's reaim, and tne blow struck was alnied at God's likoness. Murder, the speaker sald, presumptuously limtted human probation, 1t amounted to ing to a soul that your dnys for repentance und prayer, and your opportutiities for refortnation and relizion, are over! 1t was taking {nto one's hand the probationary lmit, and Uv act, In Ine tentlon, meant soul-murder. No Curouer could hold the uwlul inquest,—~that was left for Godl. When God gave the luw against munier, He atood like another Adom,—a representativo of the world,—and It was given to mau as man, and not for any natlon of men. The law was applicuble to all localities, had never been nn- nalled, aud was still in force. *“Thou shalt not kil1’? izd been written amid the soluuinitics of Sinal’und it covered the wholo ground. ‘The altur wasa place of refuge, but it offered no refuge to the _murdercr, The citles of retuga were often referred to ns proof of Divine mercy townrd the murderer, but the only man thuse ities over sheltered was one who slow anolher scefdentall®. ‘Ihe Jowish relfrion was full of sacrillces oll kiuds of wsiu aud imopur- ity, but the «crime of nurder Knew 1o exputiatior but the death of the mur- derer hlumell. It had becn the fashlon to say on thia subject that wao were not lving under the stern legalltles of theold dispeusation, and that Christ intruduced o milder dispousa- tion, Just as it law had dled when i{e was born, Chrlat came not to destroy the law butto sulill, Joho bnd sald ** Who tateth his Drother isu murderer, nud ye know that no murderer hath vturnal life ablding i him," anu the worst thtnz Peter sald when preaching to thosy wno had crucllied his Lord wos, that they relensed a nocurious munlerer—Barrabbas. The lust book in the sucred Canon consyzned murderers to a second death, and (¢ was not wouderfulthat they were not famous for readlug It when justica turned the key on them. ‘Those ouposed to capital punishment did not resd it efther, and a Inrgu portion of them had beean Univervalists, who, in effect, denfed retribution,—men who hmflumed the sublime art of acparating of- fense and penalty, sln and punishinent, and re- duced government to the level of school-girl sentimentallty, entirely ignoring the unswerving mujesty of law. ‘The speaker then proceeded to anawer the ueatlon, * What shall be done with wite-mur- ereral’?

In 1ast week’s sermon ha apoke of tho evil effects of jealousy, and, while ho was speaking, there was belng enacted only two blocks distant s tragedy which was the direct result of jealousy. A young and beautiful woman went Into Jeffer- aon Park that last Sunday evening, full of lite and hope, and was snot down by & man whom tho law termned her husband, but he was really her destroyer, ‘The time had coms when thera should be a reform, There should be a reforin {n publlenorals aud fn the execution of the law, Everybody knew that poverty was the sole hin- drance’ to crininals oscaping from justice, Thers were now & dozen or more men in the County dJail accused of murder, sad no Eouner was one out of the Jail than others took the vacant cell. As suon ns a man commita murder vne would think tat he becoues o man of pruminence and a At object for sympathy. When o man committed a crine be beeano Htonlzed. Look how Sherry and Connelly were visited by women and presented with deflieacies and’flowers, from the timo of their conviction to tueir execution, The poor girl who had so Iately been put ta her gravo might have been gaodor bad, but he, for oneydid not belteve in cast- fug insinuatfomm agninst one swho was dead. His apger was all directed agalnst the wretched ih- ertines who brought her to her fate. He would hnve thein ali arrested as accessories to Mamio Stavens’ murder, [Avplause]l. 1le knew no dilferonce between a livertine and a murderer, As to Stevens, e only wished hie had been there when that wretch shot his poor little wife. With the aid of one guod man he would have strung Stovens up to a lamp-post beluro the pulice conld have got hold of him. The speaker could unt forget murders that had oc- curred In the past, although the public seewned to bu castly satisfled. ‘I'nere was Sullivan, who ut 1lanford, one of the best and most upright izens of Chle: Sulllvan was to-day n_soclety, If he had been o free und receive Haoford’s brather wheu ho was acquited he would have given the Inw a chanes to hang him 1t 1t wouldn's hang Suillvan, . fle diun't belicve in mub law, but he did believe fu vigllance cotn- mittces, aud there should bo commitiecs of n thousand men good and true in every ward in Chivago to lielp the law to take its course.

Simoni had some money, and might buy himsclt off, It was unly a question of how much money s _man had to determine whether he could eet off or not. ‘There wns a dreadful amount of chicanory in the law nowa- days, \Want with supersedeascs, and new tri- als, and disagreements of the fury, It was nimost impossible to bang a murdercs. The speaker wouid not caleulato the future possibilltivs of Maunle Stevens and her husband, but it shoe had gone to ITell she wonld bave all eternity to zet even with her murderer, whether he professed tu bo converted or not. ‘This death-bed repent- ance was a farce.

This would be so, wera It not for the power of modiiication, in ac- cordance with which the advancing genius of nations gradually made them modiiled govern- meuts.

When there wore ten mento u demund tor a single power, there wouldbe crime and poverty. Educated mén conld make the tosk, but the lenorant could only do the work that was set bedore thum, and that of an Inferior vrder, the work for which wos small, The men who dug the varth were no more wauted when the cellar was excavated, und If thera wero 100 of this cluss when only ten were needed, nincty would have to starve, or steal, o fasa futy thu slmshouse. ‘The situstion In this couutry was bordering on this fateful issue.

To expect that every enligntened man would bo able to make busiuess for & score of Iguorant and dependent ones was quite beyond the limit of reason. There were tuo many servanis for our patfonal encerprise, and the need was for nore skill to open new tlelds of industry, create business, and give suppory 1o 200,000,000 of peuple. o this ond the children must be drawn away from tho fgnorant and dunierous classes by meauns ot mors widesprend educutloval tuciiities.
