BROOKS Sai 16th street, TuExSrectat DeLivery Sysrem.—Thearrange- ments for carrying into operation the special ten-cent stamp delivery system are all com- pleted, and the first of October will see the new system in operation. The postmasters through- out the country have been supplied with the necessary books and stamps, and even the smaller offices, where letters cannot be deliv- ered, have been supplied with stamps, so that any one can send a letter from such points to places containing over 4,000 inhabitants,where the carrier boys are employed. The Postmus- ter General is now considering the question whether to admit third and sourth-class matter to the privileges ofthis system, The law, how- ever, specifies letters as the character of mail to be delivered in this way, and it is probable that Gen. Vilas will decide not to extend the system to mail matter outside ofthat bearing letter postage. If packages could be delivered, the express companies would find that their ‘busi- ‘ness r, seriously affected. It is not thought that it was the intention of Congress to make the Post Office department a general car- rier.

Flower Nominated for Lieu- tenant Governor—The Platform En- thasiastically Indorses the Adminis- teat SARATOGA, Sept. 25.-The sun shone down brightly this morning upon apparent harmony among the democratic cohorts. The bunty democrats paraded the streets for two hours with banners and@ music, and those who chose could interpret this demonstration as showing their asquiescence in the result of last night's work. ‘The committee on resolutions was in session most of the night and finally agreed upon a civil service plank, which, they were confident, would not meet. with opposition in any quarier. This desirable result was largely due to the pacific influence of Congressmen Abram Hewitt and Perry Belmont. Chairman Raines. brought his gavel down at noon, and called the convention to order. Hon, D. Cady Herrick, chairman of the comiittes on resolutions, announced that the committee were ready to’ present their report. Before the report was read, Chairman Raines asked unani- ous consent for the presentment of a special resolution. A TRIBUTE TO GEN. GRANT. Tt was granted, and ex-Confederate Gen. Roger A. Pryor, who was on the platiorm, was recognized by the chair. He said: “I have the honor to submit the following resolution for the acceptance of the convention: “Resolved, That with profound sorrow the democracy of the state ot New York lament the death of the inflexible patriot and invineible soldier, Ulysses 8.

They have abused its provisions for the purpose of keeping republicans in office; they huve, through the machinery of the 'law, formulated” lists of eligibles | composed ” alinost "exclusive- ly, of republicans; they | have extended the period during which by the provisions of the law those eligible for appointment to office should remain on the registers so as to exclude democrats from all offices within the rules of the civil service, We ask that the com- mission ut Washington be reorganized so that its majority shall be in sympathy with the ad- ministration; that both partes be fairly repre- sented on the examining boards; that the pres, ent lists of persons eligible. for appoint ment be annulled. While, therefore, pro- claiming our approbation “of the general spirit whiich inspired the recent legislation o(, the federal government and of the state of New York, to promote a needed reform of the civil service, We must,at the same time, put on record our wish and purpose that the proper officers of each government charged with the execution of that legislation and empowered to make suitable rules and regulations to carry it into effect, shall take care that the constitutional power of the executive and heads of departments to, make appointments shall not be impaired, and that the macbinery, whatever it may be for the testing of eligible candidates, shall not be prostituted toun worthy purposes. AL this point Chairman Herrick sald: “I am requested to state tothe convention. that this provision was adopted by a majority of this ‘committee, but the minority, in the interest of harmony, decided to make no minority report,” ‘The redding of the platform was then con- tinued. It declares that the coinage of stan- dard sliver dollars cannot be continued longer without danger to the business interests, and demands the repeal of the silver coinage law, while welcoming any practical measure of agreement with other nations by which the ratio of value between gold and silver may be made less fluctuating. The tariff plank of the national democratic platform 1s reasserted, and a revision of the tariff on the principles’ therein laid down is culled for.

The platform declares that honorably discharged soldiers and sailors should be given priority in certification for posi- tions under the civil service laws; recommends the lengthening and improving of locks of the canals; demands the enactment of more strin- gent laws to prevent the manufacture of imita- tion butter and cheese; opposes all sumptuary and other laws that interfere with the constita- tonal right of personal liberty, and favors the enactment of such excise laws ‘as shall be alike just to all. ‘The platform was adopted without a dissent- Ang voice.
