Political. ADDRESS or tat Albany Irish Union Wide-A wakes, TO TtlSlft COUNTBYMKN AND FELLOW tITIZINS Fellow-Citizens: This is a free country, and every ra in, however liumb'e, can vote according to the dictates of his own con science, certainly in the State of Ntv York. You need not be told that the Irish Union Wide-Awakes, during the e-publican torch-light proct ssion in this city, Sept. 1 Uh, were t! reeled with insult fur daring thus to vindicate their politicul pref erences. Friends, why is it that our becoming Republicans o excites your hostility? Let us renson tocrether and we will convince you that were we to vote for Stephen A. Douglas, we should not against our best interest, against the rights of free labor ing white men, as well as against true democracy. We have changed our name but notour principles, and we feel coi.fi dent, that if you correctly understood the principles of the demccralio party as expounded by Douglas, and of the Republi can party as expounded by Abraham Lincoln, you would with us, ube every hon orable means to secure the eleclioa of the latter. Believing Ibis, we will give you some of the reasons which have led ns to abandon the democratic party. Three questions are to be decided by the Amer ican people on Iht 6th of November next, very different as their importance to labor, iog men, yet neither of them ao insignifi cant as not to deserve a fair and candid consideration by every voter. 1st, The financial management of the National Government. It Is true we live In a land happy beyond all olbera, and we do not suffer greatly from taxation; yet most every imported article consumed by ns, (as tea 10 per cent., coffee 20 per oenl, sagar 30 per ' eent, e.,) Is indirectly taxed to pay the present enormous expenses of onr government; and if we wil) cohbldur the matter, we will see that it is quite material to every laboring man, whether the annual expenses of the Gen eral Government are fifty million or one hundred million dollars, for in the end the burthen must fall upon the people- Now in perftct pnace It costs tho sham democracy one hundred million dollars a year to role us. so that evtry, voter is indirectly tax' d $20 a year to Kuppnrt the pfesmt corrupt administration. There" h a man out West who will govern us far better for about half that sum, who ' proposes to retrench, to stop fraud and corruption, and to expel from court those who have thus shamelessly plundered our public treasury. Therefore we shall vote for Abrahnm Lincoln, . . . ,' 8nd. The rights of ciiiaensborn iff for-eign lands, Who was it p-ttVe the ' death blow to the American party, handed by Ernstus Brooks, the most intolerant bigot that lives to disgrace this enlightened age and free country. It was Win, II. Seward and tie Republican parly. . While we were voting Hgainst them almost in a solid body, they were fighting disinterestedly for our rights against .he combined loroes of the proscriptive American party and the sham democracy under the lead of James Bu cbanan. Our votes ' defeated Fremont, but we will fjo longer vote for an emp'y name against that party which has proved Its honesty by defending out rights Unfal teringly from the first moment of its exis fence. On the other band, how has the di-mocfailc part treated us who have been its main-Btny for the Inst eight years? We will here nly mention tile fact that we are effectually excluded from emlgra ting to fifteen Slates of the Union, not by the proscriptive American pnrty, but by the abominable cystem of tegro slavery. upheld and eulogised by the democratic party North and South- That same pnrty Is doing all in its power to exe'ude not ohly us, but all white . laboring freemen from tvery foot of the public territories, ior the Dred Scott decision, which that pariy sustains ns supreme and final . declares that the Constiiun'on carries negro slavery into every territory of the United States, and if It does, then while laborers are practically excluded, since free labor cannot exist when it comes in competition with unpaid sUve labur. But more of this matter in another pi tee. We have stood by the democratic party in good report and in evil report, and after all that, when Brooks' proscriptive Americanism was breathing out its Inst foul breath under the hetl of Seward Republicanism, sham d mocracy stepped in, took the bleeding harlot by the hand, bound up her (.'Aping wounds, and bid the resurrected dt me as sume her former place among the political parties of the country Ye traitors to true democracy, where now is nil your boasted entniiy to bigo'ry, intolerance and dark lanlerniscn? Read the speeches you have been dinning in our ear for the last six years, and then fuse with a resusctta ted corpse, but know surely, ye political gambit rs, that j ou cannot sell us to be the servants Erastus Brooks. Your con duct in this matter chows conclusively th at you care no more for the i ights o adopted citiiens than for the rights of the black bondmen of the south, except for our voles. You can sell the sooty Afii can. but you cannot sell white freemen, "Who know their rights, and knowing, dare main tain." The Republican party is the tiied friend of every laborin man, no mailer what may be his religious creed, no matter in what land be may chance to have been bom, no matter in what disastrous bailie his rights may have been cloven down, no milter from what unfortunate ancestry he may be a descendant. Therefore we shall vote for Abraham Lihooln. 3J. There is one more question before the American people, of tho greatest importance to every laboring man Why is it that a laboiing man gets better wigen here than in the old countries of Europe? Because we have fertile land to be bad almost for nothing, which drains off the sur plus of labor; for if the capitalists cut down our wages we can refuse to work and turn farmers. No fact is better established than that free labor must compete with slave labor, that one or the other must exclusively prevail. What white man wishes to work lide by side with a negro slave, even if be could get a fair compensation for bis labor? But where rich men can own thair laborers and get their work done for nothing, will they hire freemen and pay them eight or ten shillings per da) ? It was never known since the world began. You have all perhaps heard how the sham democracy of a south ern city treated one of our countrymen because ba said, as every enlightened man must say, that "it would be better for white laboiing men if there we:B no slaves." Thsy stripped off the clothes of an American eitisen, though an Irishman by birth applied a, eoai of tar and feathers in their own btrbsroua -style, and sen him t)aked from th borders of the State. For what as our countryman thus treated more ignominiously than a felon, with the tacit approbation of the (ham democracy North, and public approval of the tame pirty South? His only crime was niter in jf a truth aa immutable as ibo Golden Rule. The Dred Scott decision i tys the Constitution carries slavery into all the territories of Hie United States. So says the sham democracy! and Douglas himself says "property in men mast be protected In the territories just like any other prop erty." With James Madison, we are un willing to admit that there cm be prop erty In man, and we do not believe slavery has a legal existence anywhere except by local law. So says the Republican party, so says Abraham Lincoln. If the sham democracy prevail in this contest, they will endeavor to exclude ns from all the territories as they did from Kansas; and il w t co there we shall be compelled to flht for our rights ngulnst the whole power of the national government; but if Abraham Lincoln is elected President, he will pro tect the rights of free white men, and not permit, as Franklin Pierce and James B4 chanan have done, a gang of half-civil ized border ruffian slaveholders to plunder the ballot hues with impunity, and lay waste unprotected villages without being even threatened with a halter. We believe our government was made for the many, for all, and not for tho exclusive benefit of a petty oligarchy of slaveholders. We believe it is Constitutional to ex clude 8la?eiy from the territories by act of Congress, and that the best interesls ol the whole country' and of posterity demand it. Therefore we shall vote for Abraham Lincoln. Fellow Citicens: We have given yu the reasons for our leaving the democratic patty, and we have no doubt that instead of persecuting your brethren, when you are sufficiently informed as to understand the position of the several parties cor- recily. you will support honest Abe of the West as sincerely and tealously as We do. Know then the principles of the Republi can party: "Equal rights to all citit ns, whether native or foreign born, economy in the administration of the government, and an immediate, total and eternal exclusion of the barbarous system of slavery from all the territories of the United States, Maurick BraRK, 1 JiiiN Gbadt, .

The Republican Platform AS UNANlMPt'FLV APOPTED BY THE NATIONAL CONVEKTtON AT CHICAGO. , ., We give below tbe platlorm of the Repub. lican pirty, promulgation of principles by which the Nation will be proud to ab'de ; , Resolved That we, the delegated representatives of Republican electors of the United Stetes, io Convention asuembled, in the discharge of the duty we owa to our constituents and our country, united in the following declaration: 1st. That tbe history of the nation during the last four years has fully established the propriety and necessity of the organisation and be perpetuation of the republican party, and that tbe cause which called it into e istence are permanent in their nature, and now, more than ever before, demands its peaceful and constitutional triumph ; 2d. That the maintenance of tbe princi. pies promulgated in ibo Declaration of Independence and embodied in tbe Federal Constitution, is essential to the preservation of our Republican, institutions; and that the Federal Constitution, the rights of the States and ths union of the States, must and shall be preserved ; and that we reassert these truths to be self evident: "That all men are created equal, that tbty are endowed by tbair Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among those are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happinesi; that to insure these rights, governments are instituted among tpen deriving their just powers from the con sent of tbe governor; 3d. That to the Union of the 8tates this nation owes ita unprecedented increase in population, its surprising development of material resources, ita rapid augmentation of wealth, its bappinesa at boms and its honor abroad; snd we bold in abhorrence all schemes for disunion, come from whatever sourcj they may, and w congratulate the country that no, Republican member f Congress hss uttered pr countenanced th threats of di?. union so often made. by Democratic members without rebuke, and with applause from their political associates, snd w' denounce those threats of disunion in esse of a popular overthrow of tbeir ascendancy, as denying the vital principles of a free government and as an avowal of contemplated treason, which is the imperative duty of an indignant people sUraly to rebut t and fortver silence; 4th.' Tbat the maintenance Inviolate of th rights of tbe fjtaUi, especially of the right ol tach Stajs to control its own domestie Ins il lations, sseotdlng to its pwn Judgment ex Slusively, ia essential to the balance of power la which tbe perfection and endurance of oar political fabrie depends, and w deooanc th lawUrs Invasion, by artwd-fore, of th toll or any Stats or Territory, no matter under whatever pretext) 6th. That the preiont Democratic admin jstratinn has far sxcttded our worst.sppre-henBinns In its measurleJs ' subserviency to the extctions of a sectional Interest, as espe cially evidenced in its dtsperate exertion to force the fu'amous Lccomptnn C institution upon ths protest In; people of Kmsas, in construing the personal relillnn between mister and aorvar.t to involve an unqualified property in persons land and sea, through ths in tervention of Congresi and tho Federal Courts, of the extreme pretentions of a purely local interest, and in its general abuse of the power entrusted to it by a confiding people; 8th. Tht the people Justly view with ab horrence the reckless extravagance that per. vtdes every department ol the Fedeisl Gov ernment, that a return to rigid economy and accsuntability is indispensable to arrest the systematic plunder of the public treasury by favored partisans, while the recent startlirg developments of frauds and corruption at the federal metropolis show that anontire change 01 administration is imperatively demanded. 7th. The new-dogma that the constitution of its own force carries aluvery into any or all the Territories of tho United Stales, is a dangerous political heresy at variance with the explicit provisions of that instrument it self, with contemporaneous e.iposillurt, and with legislative and judicial precedent is revolutionary in its tendency, and subversive of the poace and hatmony of tho country; 3th. That the normal condition of all the territory of the United States is that of freerri them ?"--ChanCelor Harper (ol S. C.) dom that as our Republican fathers whf they had abolished slavery in all our natiTV territory ordained that no person shouluVi deprived ol life, liberty or properly without due process of law, it becomes our duty by legislation, whenever such legislation is ne . cessary, to maintain Ibis provision o the Constitution sgainst all attempts to violate it and we deny the authority ol Congress, of a Territorial Legislature, orof any individuals to give legal existence to slavery in any Territory of the United State-t. 9th. That we brand the reocnt reopening of the African slave trade under the cover 0! our national flag, aided by perversion nf judi cial power, nsn crime og iinat humanity .and a burning shame to our country and ago, and we call upon Congress to take prompt and ef-.ficient measures for the total and final suppression of (hat execrable traffic; 10. That in the recent vetoes by their federal Governors of the acts of the LegitdaiureR in Kansas and Nebraska, prohibiting slavery in those Territories, we find a practical illustration of the boasted Democratic principle o non-intervention and popular sovereignty embodied in the 'Kmsas Nebraska bill, and a demonstration or tbe deception and fraud in-v lvcd therein: 11th That Kansas should of right bo immediately admitted aa State, under the constitution wisely formed and adapted by her p'ople, and accepted by the House of Repre. sentntlvei; , . 12th. That, while providing revenue for the support of the General Gorernmont by duties upon imports, sound policy require such an adjustmentof these imports as to en. courage the development of thi industrial in-tereKtsofthe whole country, and we com. mend that policy of national exchanges which secures to tho working men liberal wages, to agriculture remunerating prices, to median lea and manufacturers an adeqiats reward lor thoir skill, labor and enterprise, and to the nation, commercial prosperity and indo. pendence; 13th. Tbat we protest against any sale or alienation to others of the public landa held by actual settlers, and against ary iow of the free homestead pulicy which regards the settlers as paupers or suppliants for public bounty, and we demand 'ho passige, by Congress, ol tbo complete and Katisfactory home, stead measure which haa already passed the (louse) 14th That the National Republican party is opposed to any change in our naturalisation ws, or any State legislation by which tho rights of citizenship hitherto accorded to immigrants from foreign lands shall ba abridgod or impaired and are in favor of giving a fu'l and efficient proteciln.l t tho rights of al' clashes of citisenS whether nstivo or naturali' ted, both t home and abroad; 15th. Thot appropriations by Congress lor river snd harbor Improvements of national character required for the accomodation and security of an existing commerce-are author, izid by the Constitution and justified by tbo obligation of th Government to protect ih( lives snd property 0' the citiiens; 16th. That a railroad to th Psciflo Ocean is imperatively demandeJ by th interests o' the whole country, that the federal govern ment rugbt to render Immediate and efficient aid in ita construction, and thot ss preliminary thereto a daily . overland mail should bo promptly established; , , 17th. Finally, having thus sot forth ourdi. linctire principles and views, we invite the cooperations of all citisens. however differing on other questions, who substantially agree with us in thei -affirmance and support.

Political. ADDRESS or tat Albany Irish Union Wide-A wakes, TO TtlSlft COUNTBYMKN AND FELLOW tITIZINS Fellow-Citizens: This is a free country, and every ra in, however liumb'e, can vote according to the dictates of his own con science, certainly in the State of Ntv York. You need not be told that the Irish Union Wide-Awakes, during the e-publican torch-light proct ssion in this city, Sept. 1 Uh, were t! reeled with insult fur daring thus to vindicate their politicul pref erences. Friends, why is it that our becoming Republicans o excites your hostility? Let us renson tocrether and we will convince you that were we to vote for Stephen A. Douglas, we should not against our best interest, against the rights of free labor ing white men, as well as against true democracy. We have changed our name but notour principles, and we feel coi.fi dent, that if you correctly understood the principles of the demccralio party as expounded by Douglas, and of the Republi can party as expounded by Abraham Lincoln, you would with us, ube every hon orable means to secure the eleclioa of the latter. Believing Ibis, we will give you some of the reasons which have led ns to abandon the democratic party. Three questions are to be decided by the Amer ican people on Iht 6th of November next, very different as their importance to labor, iog men, yet neither of them ao insignifi cant as not to deserve a fair and candid consideration by every voter. 1st, The financial management of the National Government. It Is true we live In a land happy beyond all olbera, and we do not suffer greatly from taxation; yet most every imported article consumed by ns, (as tea 10 per cent., coffee 20 per oenl, sagar 30 per ' eent, e.,) Is indirectly taxed to pay the present enormous expenses of onr government; and if we wil) cohbldur the matter, we will see that it is quite material to every laboring man, whether the annual expenses of the Gen eral Government are fifty million or one hundred million dollars, for in the end the burthen must fall upon the people- Now in perftct pnace It costs tho sham democracy one hundred million dollars a year to role us. so that evtry, voter is indirectly tax' d $20 a year to Kuppnrt the pfesmt corrupt administration. There" h a man out West who will govern us far better for about half that sum, who ' proposes to retrench, to stop fraud and corruption, and to expel from court those who have thus shamelessly plundered our public treasury. Therefore we shall vote for Abrahnm Lincoln, . . . ,' 8nd. The rights of ciiiaensborn iff for-eign lands, Who was it p-ttVe the ' death blow to the American party, handed by Ernstus Brooks, the most intolerant bigot that lives to disgrace this enlightened age and free country. It was Win, II. Seward and tie Republican parly. . While we were voting Hgainst them almost in a solid body, they were fighting disinterestedly for our rights against .he combined loroes of the proscriptive American party and the sham democracy under the lead of James Bu cbanan. Our votes ' defeated Fremont, but we will fjo longer vote for an emp'y name against that party which has proved Its honesty by defending out rights Unfal teringly from the first moment of its exis fence. On the other band, how has the di-mocfailc part treated us who have been its main-Btny for the Inst eight years? We will here nly mention tile fact that we are effectually excluded from emlgra ting to fifteen Slates of the Union, not by the proscriptive American pnrty, but by the abominable cystem of tegro slavery. upheld and eulogised by the democratic party North and South- That same pnrty Is doing all in its power to exe'ude not ohly us, but all white . laboring freemen from tvery foot of the public territories, ior the Dred Scott decision, which that pariy sustains ns supreme and final . declares that the Constiiun'on carries negro slavery into every territory of the United States, and if It does, then while laborers are practically excluded, since free labor cannot exist when it comes in competition with unpaid sUve labur. But more of this matter in another pi tee. We have stood by the democratic party in good report and in evil report, and after all that, when Brooks' proscriptive Americanism was breathing out its Inst foul breath under the hetl of Seward Republicanism, sham d mocracy stepped in, took the bleeding harlot by the hand, bound up her (.'Aping wounds, and bid the resurrected dt me as sume her former place among the political parties of the country Ye traitors to true democracy, where now is nil your boasted entniiy to bigo'ry, intolerance and dark lanlerniscn? Read the speeches you have been dinning in our ear for the last six years, and then fuse with a resusctta ted corpse, but know surely, ye political gambit rs, that j ou cannot sell us to be the servants Erastus Brooks. Your con duct in this matter chows conclusively th at you care no more for the i ights o adopted citiiens than for the rights of the black bondmen of the south, except for our voles. You can sell the sooty Afii can. but you cannot sell white freemen, "Who know their rights, and knowing, dare main tain." The Republican party is the tiied friend of every laborin man, no mailer what may be his religious creed, no matter in what land be may chance to have been bom, no matter in what disastrous bailie his rights may have been cloven down, no milter from what unfortunate ancestry he may be a descendant. Therefore we shall vote for Abraham Lihooln. 3J. There is one more question before the American people, of tho greatest importance to every laboring man Why is it that a laboiing man gets better wigen here than in the old countries of Europe? Because we have fertile land to be bad almost for nothing, which drains off the sur plus of labor; for if the capitalists cut down our wages we can refuse to work and turn farmers. No fact is better established than that free labor must compete with slave labor, that one or the other must exclusively prevail. What white man wishes to work lide by side with a negro slave, even if be could get a fair compensation for bis labor? But where rich men can own thair laborers and get their work done for nothing, will they hire freemen and pay them eight or ten shillings per da) ? It was never known since the world began. You have all perhaps heard how the sham democracy of a south ern city treated one of our countrymen because ba said, as every enlightened man must say, that "it would be better for white laboiing men if there we:B no slaves." Thsy stripped off the clothes of an American eitisen, though an Irishman by birth applied a, eoai of tar and feathers in their own btrbsroua -style, and sen him t)aked from th borders of the State. For what as our countryman thus treated more ignominiously than a felon, with the tacit approbation of the (ham democracy North, and public approval of the tame pirty South? His only crime was niter in jf a truth aa immutable as ibo Golden Rule. The Dred Scott decision i tys the Constitution carries slavery into all the territories of Hie United States. So says the sham democracy! and Douglas himself says "property in men mast be protected In the territories just like any other prop erty." With James Madison, we are un willing to admit that there cm be prop erty In man, and we do not believe slavery has a legal existence anywhere except by local law. So says the Republican party, so says Abraham Lincoln. If the sham democracy prevail in this contest, they will endeavor to exclude ns from all the territories as they did from Kansas; and il w t co there we shall be compelled to flht for our rights ngulnst the whole power of the national government; but if Abraham Lincoln is elected President, he will pro tect the rights of free white men, and not permit, as Franklin Pierce and James B4 chanan have done, a gang of half-civil ized border ruffian slaveholders to plunder the ballot hues with impunity, and lay waste unprotected villages without being even threatened with a halter. We believe our government was made for the many, for all, and not for tho exclusive benefit of a petty oligarchy of slaveholders. We believe it is Constitutional to ex clude 8la?eiy from the territories by act of Congress, and that the best interesls ol the whole country' and of posterity demand it. Therefore we shall vote for Abraham Lincoln. Fellow Citicens: We have given yu the reasons for our leaving the democratic patty, and we have no doubt that instead of persecuting your brethren, when you are sufficiently informed as to understand the position of the several parties cor- recily. you will support honest Abe of the West as sincerely and tealously as We do. Know then the principles of the Republi can party: "Equal rights to all citit ns, whether native or foreign born, economy in the administration of the government, and an immediate, total and eternal exclusion of the barbarous system of slavery from all the territories of the United States, Maurick BraRK, 1 JiiiN Gbadt, .

The Republican Platform AS UNANlMPt'FLV APOPTED BY THE NATIONAL CONVEKTtON AT CHICAGO. , ., We give below tbe platlorm of the Repub. lican pirty, promulgation of principles by which the Nation will be proud to ab'de ; , Resolved That we, the delegated representatives of Republican electors of the United Stetes, io Convention asuembled, in the discharge of the duty we owa to our constituents and our country, united in the following declaration: 1st. That tbe history of the nation during the last four years has fully established the propriety and necessity of the organisation and be perpetuation of the republican party, and that tbe cause which called it into e istence are permanent in their nature, and now, more than ever before, demands its peaceful and constitutional triumph ; 2d. That the maintenance of tbe princi. pies promulgated in ibo Declaration of Independence and embodied in tbe Federal Constitution, is essential to the preservation of our Republican, institutions; and that the Federal Constitution, the rights of the States and ths union of the States, must and shall be preserved ; and that we reassert these truths to be self evident: "That all men are created equal, that tbty are endowed by tbair Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among those are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happinesi; that to insure these rights, governments are instituted among tpen deriving their just powers from the con sent of tbe governor; 3d. That to the Union of the 8tates this nation owes ita unprecedented increase in population, its surprising development of material resources, ita rapid augmentation of wealth, its bappinesa at boms and its honor abroad; snd we bold in abhorrence all schemes for disunion, come from whatever sourcj they may, and w congratulate the country that no, Republican member f Congress hss uttered pr countenanced th threats of di?. union so often made. by Democratic members without rebuke, and with applause from their political associates, snd w' denounce those threats of disunion in esse of a popular overthrow of tbeir ascendancy, as denying the vital principles of a free government and as an avowal of contemplated treason, which is the imperative duty of an indignant people sUraly to rebut t and fortver silence; 4th.' Tbat the maintenance Inviolate of th rights of tbe fjtaUi, especially of the right ol tach Stajs to control its own domestie Ins il lations, sseotdlng to its pwn Judgment ex Slusively, ia essential to the balance of power la which tbe perfection and endurance of oar political fabrie depends, and w deooanc th lawUrs Invasion, by artwd-fore, of th toll or any Stats or Territory, no matter under whatever pretext) 6th. That the preiont Democratic admin jstratinn has far sxcttded our worst.sppre-henBinns In its measurleJs ' subserviency to the extctions of a sectional Interest, as espe cially evidenced in its dtsperate exertion to force the fu'amous Lccomptnn C institution upon ths protest In; people of Kmsas, in construing the personal relillnn between mister and aorvar.t to involve an unqualified property in persons land and sea, through ths in tervention of Congresi and tho Federal Courts, of the extreme pretentions of a purely local interest, and in its general abuse of the power entrusted to it by a confiding people; 8th. Tht the people Justly view with ab horrence the reckless extravagance that per. vtdes every department ol the Fedeisl Gov ernment, that a return to rigid economy and accsuntability is indispensable to arrest the systematic plunder of the public treasury by favored partisans, while the recent startlirg developments of frauds and corruption at the federal metropolis show that anontire change 01 administration is imperatively demanded. 7th.
