The committee on resolutions re- ported a platform which was adopt- ed. After alengthy preamble, recit- ing the record of the Republican party to the present time, it re- afirms the policy of the party as stated in the conventicns of 1868 and 1872, In relation to finance, it favors the election of legislators who will make free national banking laws based on specie resumption at such a time as consistent with the indus- trial interests of the country. Reform in public service general; reduction of the public debtin a way uof fo burden the country’s industries' and a cargful system of taxation as tending to reduce the prodigality in public expénses; commends Inyestigations into offi- clal corruption, gnd demunds rail- road corporations to be subjested to rallroad corporations to be subjected to legislation that shall forbid ex- tortion a2 secure cheap transporta- tion. He favors the transfer of the In- dlan Bureau tq the control of the ‘War Department, commends the repeal of the back-pay law, and favors the amendments to the con- stitution prohibiting Congress set- thing itsown compensation ; protests agafnst the thirg tgry; for the Uni- ted States; disapproves further grants of public lands to railroad and other corporations, At the session which was held in the eveajng, Governor Thomas A.

LaNSING, August 26, The Republican State Convention here to-day was well attended. The following are the nomination: For Governor, W. J. Bogley; Lient] Governor, H. H. Hoyt; Secretary. of State, Ely D. Holden, of Grand Rapids; State Treasurer, W. B. Me- Callay; Auditor General, Ralph Ely, of %rql;ut pounty ; Commis- sioner of State Land Qffice, L. A. Clapp, re-nominated; Superintend- ent of Public Instruction, D. B. Briggs, re-nominated. Phe preamble and resolutions adopted set forth that in view of the record of the Republican party which invites scrutiny, which has been faithful to the interests of the government from the first, which has legislated wisgly and fully and brought the credit of the government to a high standard, there seems no r?son for surrender- ing the rgins of power to 8 party whose last publlomsefl" was to drag the country into clvil war, to disgrace the financial credit and len;e the gn\'emme'r:! ou the brink of djssolutjon. ully iating th ' Bnancial dGGMIER, Torough which the country has passed, they regard the differénces of opinion in their gonstituencies as jnevitable, but they endorse as wise and timely the measure finally agreed upon by Congress; believe in conflicting and opposing theories; while recognizing in greenbacks and national bank notes a cirpulating medjum superjor to auy paper eurrency existing in the United States,they demand that in all financial legislation Congress keep In view specie payment, to the end, thatat the earliest practicable day the government —promises to pay may be equivalent to coin ; they believe banking under a well guarded national system should be free; they denounce repudiation in every form or degree ; the claims of the colored people of the south | should not be forgotten; they should have the elective franchise as their reward during the civil war, and as a means of protection to themselves, and the national government can- not shrink from giving them this withoutincurring the excreations of all mankind; they appeal to the government to protect these people in their human and political rights, and their persons and property. A minority resolution that a re- turn to 8 gold basis should be speed- | iy made as laid down in President | Grant's veto message on the cur- | rency bill, was received, St. Louis Live Stock. S7.

But defen- dant says that he and said complain- ant, even in Apri) 1868, was mem- bers of the Church of Christ—Lat- ter Day Saints—and that it wasa doctrine and belief of said church that members thereof might right- tully enter into plural marriage; de- fendant admits that on the 6th day of April, 1868, at Salt Lake Ciiy, in accordance with the doctrine and custom of said church g ceremony was performed to unite plaintiff and defendant in what is known as plural or celestial marriage, and that plaintiff then well know that the sald first wife of the defendant was then living and undivorced, but the dafendant de- nies that he and plaintitf were mar- ried in any other manner than so set forth.

The defendant denigs all charges of negleat, unkindness and gruelty, or that he ever gave any cause for fear of bodily harm ; but declares, on the contrary, that he provided her with ample means, and has visited her domgicile at different times, and a8 frequently as deféndant’s duty would admit. ~The d-fendant also denies that during the last four years he was informed, or wyrarp, that the plaintif was in feeble health, and denles that he has de- serted ber at all, The defendant denies that he iy, or has been, the owner of wealth amounting to several million dol- lars, or that he receives a monthly receipt from his property of forty thousand dollars, On the coptrary the defendant alleges that his gross income from all his property and every source does not exceed one thousand dollars per month, Tho | defendant further alleges that at the time of said alleged marriage with Ann Eliza he bad, and still hasa very large family, now consisting of sixty-three persons, all of whom The entire answer oceupeis fourteen pages of legal cap, and Is signed by Williams, Young, Sneeks, Hemp- | stead and Kirkpatrick, attorneys for defendant, and sworn to by | Brigham Young, Joseph F.

An_affidavit has -been made by the late Miss Pomgroy’s aunt to the effect that Glendenning called, before Miss Pomeroy’s ill- ness, at Clinton Place Infant Asyl- um to make arrangements for the reception of a lady there, and the matron had told her that 'Glenden- ning was the man.

The plaintiffalso asks that they be restrained from issuiug any more of such bonds, they haviag promised in 1873 to is- sue no more.

BROOKLYN, August 26, The Beecher investigating eom- mittee met last evening at the resi- dence of Mr. Storrs. Four members were in attendance, and the pro- ceedings were, as usual, strietly pri- vate. After adjournment one of the committee stated that tyo wi nesses were examined, whose testi- ; mony it was deemed advisable to take before closing the case, He did not state the naturec &hdr evi- dence, but it is probable they were called to testify to matters contain- ed in Moulton’sstatement.

It is now thought thé rovort has been re- modled so as t6 meet the points touched by Mgilion, Itis not known whether tha com. mittee will examize any more wit- nessee.

Several dispatches have been re- ceived regarding reported hostile movements of the Osage Indians. Indian Agent Gibson telegraphs General Belknap from Coffdeville, Kansas, stating that Governor Osborne hasbeen misinformed. The Osage Indians have not declared war against the people of Kansas, and have not threatened to do so, or committed any depredations whatever; on the contrary they break up the summer campaign of the plains Indians. They feel grieved aver the treach- erous murder of four unarmed Osages recently, by the Kansas militia, and the theft of over fifty mies. Oshorne stated Le received nformation of the Usages declaring war from Agent Stubbs, but the latter denfes any such statement. A dispatch from Fort Sully, Da- kota, August 20th, says Indians arrived at Cheyenne cn the 16th, and report Custar in camp at Coop- er’s or the Black Hills.
