State Convention—Platform and State Ticket, St. Louis, August 6, 1868, Immediately after the assembling of the Demo- cratic State Convention this morning the Committee on Platform reported the following resolutions, which were unanimously adopted :— The democracy of Missourt in convention assembled, look- ing only to living issues and cordially inviting the co-opera- tion of every lover of constitutional liberty, regardless of ast or present party associations, do, in view of the con- dition of the State and nation, proclaim and resolve as fol- Democratic Firet—That we hail with unbounded satisfaction the nomi- nation of Horatio Seymour and F. P. Blair for President and Vice Freaident of the United States upon a platform of prin- ciples bold, earnest, sound and truthful; that with fixed pur. one and unconquerable zeal we will labor in this canvass to he end that our country may be redeemed, regenerated wud disenthralled. Second—While we are willing to protect the oolored race from every assault upon their natural rights, bly opposed to negro suffrage and negro e sequence. The proposition now pending mit to the elective franchise the untutored African while thousands of intelligent, industrious and law-abiding white men are excluded from the ballot box 1# a gross insult to our aco and a ghastly mark of contempt for the commonest Principleg of justice, Third—That the declaration of the Missouri radicals in their platform that they ‘cherish no revenceful feelings toward those Who fought in fair, open battle, though for an unjust cause, 4 1 stand ready to restore to them every political privil est moment consistent with State and nat y,"" is @ transparent falsehood, in lieu of the fact though the reasoning of the United States Supreme Court the adjudication of casoa proves the Missouri test oath uncon- atitutional, null and void, this party of proscription still re- quires the oath to be adtninistered, and are at the present moment reorganizing their political machinery through the infamous Registration law to give a strained and wnwarrant- able interpretation of that oath. Fourth—We challenge the world to produce in the whole history of tyranny a parallel to the lawless violence, the harsh oppression, the grinding, inexorable despotism of the radical arty of BM in ita dealings with the people. The rule of that party has brought utter demoralization into almost every branch of the public service, through its ofliciala and honored representatives has robbed the State of millions of money, lavished countless thousands upon party favorites and ema thousands more on \seless: Cae be nt ni alogize expenditures. Murderers and thieves are great eftizens and Christian eer ; destroyers of a free press ‘and invaders of peaceful communities are held up for plause and public honors; the plunderers of the Treasury unimpeached and unindicted; the perpetrators of matchless Villainies are welcomed as respectable members of radical res, radical cancuses and radical conventions. Fith.-That we enunciate as a legal proposition that every citizen of lawful ago, having resided in the State and coun ty the length of time required by law, haa the right of sulfrage | Dut we urge upon every loyal voter In the State to register and vote. While we demand a fair and impartial registration of all qualitied voters under the law, we condemn and discou tenance any improper interference with or attempts to in- {imidate the registration oflcers in the proper discharge of thelr official duties; that, supporting and obeying all laws larly enacted, the d y are the party of law and ‘and their accession to power will give peace and tran- to this distracted land. Siath—The condition of our State no less than the true prin- ciples of political and official action demands frugality and economy, the contraction of expenditures, the lessening of taxation ‘and, in short, the adoption of a rigid policy of re- trenchment and reform. A resolution, recommended by the committee, was also adopted to appoint a committee to prepare an address to the people on the issues of the day and the rights of citizens to register and vote under the existing laws, and the decisions of the courts on the same, and to point out a mode of legal redress for hard who may be wrongfully deprived of such rights. john S. Phelps was then nominated as the demo- cratic candidate for Governor by ucciamation, and Colonel Norman J.

You will perceive also that the same section imposes upon such im- ported tobacco and = snuff, in addition to the import duties, the tax prescribed in this act upon like Kinds of tobacco and snuff manufactured in the United States, and requires thet the same stamps respectively shall be affixed. The ninety- third section provides that all cigars imported from foreign countries after the passage of this act snall, in addition to the import duties imposed on the same, pay the tax prescribed in this act for cigars manufactured in the United States and have the stamps aftixed. Such stamps shall be aMxed and cancelled by the owner or Importer of cigars while they are in the custody of the proper custom house officers, and such cigars shall not pass out of the custody of such officers until the stamps have been so affixed and cancelied, The import dnty ts pre- seribed by the proviso at the end of section etghty. seven, to wit:—$2 60 per pound and twenty-tive cents ad valorem and the internal revenue tax by the eighty-first section in the following words:— “On cygars of all descriptions made of tobacco or any substitute therefor $5 per thousand; on cigarettes weighing not exceeding three pounds per thousand, $1 50 per thousand; when Weighing ‘exceeding three pounds per thou: sand, $5 per thousand.’ Section 108 enacts that all the provisions of this act which require the use of stamps shall take effect at the end of sixty days from the passage of this act, and that the delay may be still further extended tf deemed necessary by the Secretary of the Treasury. The last clause of section 82 provides that cigarettes and cheroots shall be held to he cigars under the meaning of this act. The department holds that under the 77th section all manufactured tobacco and snuff, = im- ported after the passage of this act, and until October 1, 1868, must be warehoused, and so remain until said October 1, 1868, Cigars, cigarette and cheroots imported after the passage of this act are required to pay the new rate of import duty as prescribed hy the proviso at the end of section 57 above referred to, and the new internal revenue tax prescribed by the Sist section above cited. You will observe that section 86 requires that all cigars shall ve packed tn boxes not before used for that purpose, @ontaining respectively 25, 50, 100, 250 and 500 cigars each, and that section 9% extends this provision to imported cigars, so that they cannot be permitted to pass from your custody without being “oe packed whether imported in that condition ot otherwise. But under the provisions of the 108th section no in- ternal revenue stamps are required within the time lmited by that section. in all other respects the several sections above cited or referred to take effect from and after the passage of the act under the last clause of section s2 above quoted, ‘The provision tn regard to packing also extends to cigarettes and cheroota, The new law does not abolish the ordinary Custom House stamps now in use and placed ou all packages of imported cigars, but they must be affixed to the boxes in which’ they pass out of your custody. The Com- missioner of Internal Revenue, tt is understood, will at an early day issue regulations for the collec. tion of the tnternal revenue on cigars, cigarettes and cheroots, and pntil stamps are provided you will, before permitting cigars, &c., to pass out of your custody, require the prov on of satisfactory evidence under sald regulations of the paynsent of HUGH McCULLOCH, Secretary of the Treasury, jd tax.
