While some of the Mamagers favor new articles, and Mr. Stevens has three more already drawn, it is unlikely they will be presented by the House, and the hopes referred to do not seem to be ‘based upon that idea. MONEY FOR THE PresipENt.—Mr. Ruph Newton, the New York broker, in his testi- y before the Impeachment Managers, swered affirmatively to the question whether he was aware that money had been raised for the President. There had been subscribed New York, he said, $100,0%0 for the President in case of conviction, aud $50,000 to defray the expenses of his trial in case of acquittal.

The order for tue medal was given to Messrs. Starr & Marcus. jewellers, ot New York city, who designed it aud executed the work. It bas just been completed and received at the Stute Department, and ts decidedly the handsomest and most unique affar ever made in this country, and as a work of art far sur- passes any medal ever presented by our Gov- ernment beretofore. 1t is three inches in diam- eter anda balf inch thick; on the front is the profile of Mr. Peabody in alto relicro, and on the reverse the following inscription: ‘The people of the United States to George Peabody, in ac- knowledgment of beneficent promotion of universal education Lt is mounted on a base, and to the right of the medal are two palmetto trees in gold, six inches high, around which is twined the ivy, the emblem of friendship.

Under the palmetto trees are two chilaren, one represent- ing a white child and the other a black; the white child pointing to Benevolence an the inches lomg, three-fourths of an inch thick, and one and one-quarter inches high, and the whole work is of solid gold. In the rear of the medal, rest- ing upon the base, is a oe Globe, which revolves, and around are books, and various instruments representing the progress of civilization and education. On the front of the base is our national shield, executed in epamel. ‘The medal is enclosed in a handsome cabi- net of ebony and bird’s eye maple. lined with purple velvet, the top of which resolves when the medal is placed upon it thus exhibiting it witnowt placing the hand upou it to change its Position. ‘The entire work was made with tools and not struck from a die.

Asan however, to these gloomy appearances, THE RE PUBLICAN PLATYORM. The Reselutions in Full. adopted by Ni Conven- i session at Obicago on the 2ist mst: The National ublican party of the United States, assembled in National Convention in pe a on the 2th day of May, 1808, make the following declaratioa of princi- ples. First, We con; the country on the assured success of the reconstruction projects of Congress, as evinced by the adoption, ina majority of the States lately in rebellion, of constitutions securing equal civil and political Tights to all, and regard it as the duty of the Government to sustain these institutions and to Prevent the people of such States from being Temitted to a state of anarchy Second. The guarantee of Congress of equal suffrage to all loyal men at the South was de- manded by every consideration of public safety, of gratitude. and of justice, and mnst be main- tained, while the question of suffrage in all the Joyal States properly belongs to the people of those Stat Third. We denounce all forms of repudiation as a national crime, and national houor re- vires the payment of the publ ness in the utmost good faith to creditors, at home and abroad, not only according to the letter but the spirit of the laws under which it ‘was contract Fourth. Itis due to the labor of the nation that taxation should be equalized. and redaced as rapidly as the national faith will permit. Fitth. The national debt, contracied as it has been for the preservation of the Union for all time to come, should be extended over a fair period for redemption, and it is the duty of Congress to reduce the rate of interest thereon whenever it can possibly be done. Sixth. That the best policy to diminish our burden of debt is to so improve our credit that capitalists will seek to loan us money at lower rates of interest than we now pay, and must continue to pay so long as repudiation, partial or total. open or covert, is threatened or sus- peciea. Seventh. The Government of the United States should be administered with the strictest economy, and the corruptions which have been so shamefully nursed and fostered by Andrew Johuson cali loudly for radical reform. Eighth. We profoundly deplore the ultimely and tragic death of Abraham Lincoln, and regret the secession of Andrew Jobnson to the Presidency. who has acted trracherously to the people who eleced him and the cause he Was pledged to support; has usurped legisia- tive and judicial functions; hs execum the laws; has used’ his high office © induce other officers to ignore and violate the laws; bas employed his executive power 10 render insecure the prosperity, peice, liberty, and life of the citizens; has abuséd the pardon- ing power: has denounced the National Legis Jature as unconstitutional; has persistently and corruptly resisted, by every means in his power, every proper attempt at the reconstruc. tion of the States ately in rebellion: has per- verted the public patronage imto an engine of wholesale corruption, and has been justly im- peached for bigh crimes and misdemeanors, and properly pronounced guilty by the yotes of thirty-five Senators. Ninth. The doctrine of Great Britain and other European powers, that because a man is Once a subject he is always so, must be resisted atevery hazard by the United States as a relic of the feudal times, not authorized by the law of nations ard at war with our nation. honor Natnralized citizens are to be protected in ail their rights of citizenship as though they were native born, and no citizen of the United States, native or naturalized, must be liable to arrest and im- prisonment by any foreign power for acts done or words spoken in this country. Ard if so arrested and imprisoned, it is the duty of the Government to interfere in his behalf. Tenth. Of all who were faithful m the trials of the late war there were none entitled to more especial honor than the brave soldiers and sea- men who endured the hardships of the cam- Paigy and cruise, and imperiled their lives in the service of the country. The bounties and Pensions provided by law for these brave de- ienders of the nenon are obligations never to be forgotten. The widows and orphans of the gal'ant dead are the werds of the people, a sa cred legacy bequeathed to the nation’s protect - ing care. Eleventh. Foreign emigration, which in the past bas added so much to the wealth and Velopment of the resources and the mer power of this nation, “the ssyium of the op- Preseed of ail nations.” should be fostered and encouraged by a liberal and just policy. Tweltth. This convention declares its sym pathy with all the oppressed people who are struggling for their rights. Mr. Thompson, chairman of the committee on resolutions, reported one acditional resoln- tion, which was adoped; to the effect that the Adjournment of this convention shall not work 4 dissolution of the same, Temain as.an organization, subject to be called together at any time and place that the National Republican Executive Committee shall desig- nate. On metion of General Carl Sehurz, the ful- lowing additional resolutions were unani- mous! Adopted as part of the platform: Kesolved, That we highly commend the spirit of magnanimity and forbearance with which the men who have served in the rebellion, out now TramRly and honestly co-operate with us in restoring the peace of the country and re- constructing the Southern State governments upon the basis of important justice and equal rights, are received back into the communion of the loyal people: and we favor the removal of the disqualifications and restrictions im- Posed upon the late rebels in the same measure as their spirit of loyalty will direct and as may be consistent with the safety of the loyal Peeple. (Cries of “Good, good.”] Hesolved, That we recognize the great princi- ples laid down in the immortal Declaration of ndependence of the true foundation of demo- cratic government, and we bail with gladness every effort toward making these principles a living reality on every inch of American soil. Tak Racrw@ Season.—On the Fashion Course, New York, yesterday, the race for a purse of one thousand doilars,’ mile heats, best three in five in harness, created great excite- ment, and the extraordinary time of Flora Temple, Princess, George M.

SCENES AT THE CHICAGO CONVEN- TION. The Nomination of Colfax. The Chicago correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazerte gives the following graphic description of the scenes upon the nomiuation of a candi- date tor Vice President The nomination of the long roll of candidstes grew fearfully tedious. Henry S. Lane prv sented Colfax handsomely, and Hassaurek made a capital Little speech in bringing forward Wade, while Carl Schurz produced an excellent effrct by the few warm sentences in which, om bebalf of Missouri, be seconded the nomin tion. Nothing could have been happier than this little =peect, in which Senate Announced that though his delega' on voting for bim, be was not a candidate, and should yotr, not as a matter of compli- ment, but under'a sence of duty, for Ben Wade Mr. ‘Tremaine made 4 Fo0d, ‘tm speaking tor mion, & im general ea. a Gidate was well presented, though the long- drawn out praises grew very wearisome. As for shadowed from the beginning, Wade led on the first ballot, coming within one of the num- ber which I predicted for him three days ago. As Hcted last night. Fenton came next, be- ing only sevenwen votes behind Wade. The third was Wilson. Coltax stood fourth, and there was manifestly no show for any of the rest. The Hamlin people knew their man to be a second ofa larger number than any other candidate could enumerate, and their hope was in a prolonged contest, which might end by & compromire upon him. Practically. how- ever, the contest was between the four first named, with only the possibility of Hamlin’s becoming a formidable candidate. All bands regarded the first ballot as more of less a com- Plimentary affair. On the second came the real tug of war- There were a few moments of sad donfusion on the floor: delegates running hither and thither to propose changes or urge combinations. ‘When at last the call of the States began, it soon became evident that the tendency of the wavering vote was mainly to Wade. Wilson's column in Alabama brokeand gave Wade two hus column in Georgia broke and gave Wade seven; Kentucky came in with thircen more Maryland wheeled into line with ten: but when Uhio herself was called, the Chairman an- nounced that thirty-eight yous were cast for Wade and tour tor Colfax. The break came so soon, in such a dangerous direction, as w pro- duce a decided sensation. Some of the excited delegates back of the Ohio crowd could not re- stram their displeasure, and vented it in kisses ‘These were soon quieted however. The call went on, showing gaius tor Wade in other quarters, which far more than made up in numbers the little loss from Uhio, but could not restore the moral effect of the unbroken State front. sensation was all the greater since Judge Spaiding, ma speech on the nomination of Wade, bad taken pains to say, before the first ballot’ was taken. that he bad never known Obio unanimous in & National Convention, and he felt this unanimity to be a token of cer- tam success, The four men who, on this sec- ond ballot, turned from Wade to Coltax, were McFarland, of Butler; Nettleton, of Sandusky Coleman, of Troy. and Hunt, of Kenton. They had evidently calculated the effect of their de- monstrations at this time, and seemed confi- dent of being ned Somebody now wanted to adjoura, but the HVention Was As excited asa party of gam- blers when the bets range among the sands, and the hands haye been dealt « bo suggestions of dinner could be tolerated. ‘The third ballot showed few changes, save thai Colfax gained here and were a few votes Wilson lost, and Uurtin ran down to the soh- tary vote of his own State. The crisis was uow known by everybody to be at hand, when Col Alexander McCinre, ot Pennsylvani the shrewdest wire-pullers of that Si Wire-pullers, took the platform to read a letter of withdrawal trom Governor Cartin, Pennsylvania bad fifty-two votes. Where would they go! Wade had reason to expect them, and it was pretty certain that wherever their’ weight was thrown victory would perch. Evidently Pennsylvanians themsel yes their power, and fully appreciated the ituation. The tendency still appeared to be toward Wadeas the call lost on ail bands, till like Curtin, he seemed passing out of the list of candidates, bat when Ohio was cailed her own vow for Wade was one weaker. The same four had voted again tor Colfax with Humpbill, of Ripley, who had joined them on the third ballot, and they were now further reintorced by John Campbell, of fronton. Penusylvauia coming moxt, cast 3} votes for Wade, and rousing cheers went up at this significant addition, but the rest of her strength went for Col: ¥ sw bis Pennsylvania balance the other way He had first tried to produce a break for Wade; he now tried it tor Colfax. The from 33 to Mi, and 30 were cast for Colfax. The sensation was decided, and Lowa, eager at any rate for Colfax, jumped at the chance to begin the break, The chairman shouted that Iowa withdrew the votes from Fenton, and cast its full vote solid for Colfax. An in. stant before the cheers had fairly begun, McLane was up:—“Penusylvania asks to change her vote. She casts for Schuyler Colfax.” The work was done. What followed was a mere scramble for prece- dence in the race for changing off to Colfax The Indianians cheered till their throate gave out. The galleries, which seemed to sympa- thize strongly with Colfax from the start, pro- longed and intensified the uproar; and with a struggle between New York and Ohio as to who should bave the honor of moving that the nomination be made unanimous, the mame of Schuyler Colfax, the printer boy of South Bend, was placed beside that of Grant, the tanner of Ripley, on the Presidential ticket.
