nit Id 'publican party of Virginia, in tuuven- tkm uihlod, reaffirm their devotion to the principles 10 the National Kcpuhucan Party of ill" TJirt: (J States, as enunciated iv tbe I. plattorm at tin- last National Convention. We in favor of, and support aa national A uuiil, which, while the necessary, I hTll rive incidental, protection to American industry a national banking that shall give saW anrl uniform eurreney, niid absolute security to bdl-hoiners. The policy of extending government aid to the in Improving their rlv-rs and harbors. Tin 1 absolute of obligations of the government, and sufficient yearly reduction of the national drbl to convince tin) world of our determination to ultimately exUngnih it, while, it the same time, we carefully avoid burdening ibp people with onorous and unneeessarv taxation.

t'uat we heartily endorse the administration of President Grant, una are unanimously hi favor uf his nomination in is7'i. BTATB POtIOT. boiH'-i man ustiy vi.it the tendency of the legislation of the past yenr In Virginia has been to depress all the material pneresu of the people. Taxation has been mct'en-ted yond the of htimftn endurance, and the Democratic LjegWlauue itlt two-iliirdis majority, has passed and unneeessarv laws, which UlO Funding Jiill prominent. Under its provisions taxation on the 1 property of the State will be double what it now, or nut less than one dollar on oreiy hundred.

Wone slill, it is uilneeessary. they have compelled I lie people Virginia to raise money, either by their property I or products, or fay pacing rate ol interest to pay those ono.ons tuxct by the let dsy of September, 1 r.71, or forfeit rive per while we are now officially Informed by the Treasurer of the State that that the money so collected is not needed until January and July. 1872, and lying in Ihe banks of "the city of ttienmond only four percent. Interest, presenting the astonishing spectacle of a state i reing Its citizers to loan wealthy more than a million at the low rate of four pW cent per annum, while, at the same tune, under combination oi tauces. our citiKenw are thus compelled to I borrow their own money at the rate ol twelve per cent, per annum.

The psMsue of such acts in Virginia by a Democratic Legislature ts only in keeping with Democratic legislation wherever that party ob-1 tains power, as exemplified by that great leading I Democratic organization of the united the Tammany King of New York. This Legiaj uure has passed neutralizing and rendering void and of Be) effect ihe homestead provisions of the constitution; placing the execution of the laws establishing commoi. schools in partisan hud unfriendly handi, and have violated almost every pledge made by their authorized represen-1 tatlves when pleatjuig for the admission of the State to Federal representation. They have created a partisan judiciary, and given the county by caucus nominations, unprecedented and unheard of power. They have reestablished that relic of a barbarous past, the whipping-post, and by giving the judges power to select the juries in all cases, have enabled them to do, as they have done in a vast majority of instances, exclude the colored man from the jury-box, and deprive him ol the right so dear to all, of defence before a jury of his peers.

The Republican party invite the cooperation of all good citizens in correcting these 1 abuses, and do Resttve, That we are opposed to levying upon our citizens any further tax than is necessary to a strictly economical administration of the State government, and demand thai our representatives in the Legislature shall do all in their power pj the greatest extent the burdens or the people, and to decrease the expenses of the state. Retiuivr, That we demand the honest and scrupulous enforeeinent of the constitution of the State in all its part-, and such legislation as will secure the equal rights of all, guaranteed by that instrument, equitable taxation, the benefits of the homestead act, a thorough system of common school education, and an impartial and nonpartisan judiciary. Resolutions. Jit-solved, That the battle of universal freedom and Universal suffrage having been fought and won, and those amendments to the constitution of the United States, designed to secure in perpetuity the rights uf mop, accepted by a large part of the Democratic party, and they pledged to abide forever thereby, and these issues having thus solemnly and finally determined, there 1 remains no excuse for our natural and thetic. friends, the Whigs of Virginia, to continue 1 in any degree their cooperation with the party.

Jitsolot'i, That the Whigs Virginia, in standing by the faith of then- fathers, and agreeing with us in all that relates to our governmental protection oi American industry mid manufactures, iU(. system of national banking, ihe right of QDgross to appropriate money for the improwim nt of our rivers and harbors, and the our great water line and commercial art in all tnivt thr, name and this Convention, impressed with truths, and anxious that the Republican party of Virginia should avail itself oi the capacity, character, and love of country of this large element, is gratified in extending to them an earnest invitation to join ouce more in patriotic battle against their old Demo- oralis party. Krsolvnl, That whether these gallant allies shall at once become ihe foremost of Kepuhlicaus, standing within the strictest, circle ol our party organization, or but yield to us their cooperation afleaast the common enemy, we pledge then), cither case, the waun welcome of a Republican President, the tmceresL gratitude and fellowship of iheKepuhliean party, and a full participation in all the benefits to be derived from a common victory over their old 1 party.
