Tlio Democratic members of CnngrtSBS lmve
published a cull for a National Convention to
bo liold In tho City of 1 Idtiulelphlu, on the
'lUhof Aujjtist, nii'd to bo known na the
National Union Convention. This cull Is u
'tormaldUbiindiuenlol tho Democratic party,
nnd renunciation of the name Democracy, mid
an luvitittion lor Us members to meet In Con
vention with such dissatisfied persons of the
Union party us can bo Induced to unito with
tho In forming n new organization. It isa
direct confession that tlio Jcinrtcratn fttrtv.
Indelibly stained with treason as it is, a name
too grievous to bo borne, an I tlio cunning
signers ofthis'all, who nro staggering under
'Its weight, ilro riving to relievo thoinsi Ives
'frtilh Iho dreadl'til burden,
This proposition to change its name is a
humiliating acknowledgment of defeat, o.
dishonor and nfnutionul coinl"mnatiun, widen
could have been wrung from these men only
by tho direst sull'cring mid necessity. And
yet it will not avail' Tlio new parly, what
ever namo or shape it may assume, will bo the
flinno old Copperhead concern. Composed (if
tho game men, dollied wilb the wiiho history,
and plotting tjo samu dishonors and disasters
to tlio country.
Tho "cuir cstublMiiH tho fact, however,
thai 'the recent revelation to the Democracy of
this District, "Hint iho war was just nnd ne
cessary," was local in Its character, and did
not extend to Washington, for it makes no
mention or tho war at all, and, for might tlmt
appears in il, tho authors never heard or the
rebellion. They discuss the. dangerous siliu
llon of tho country, utterly ignoring tho fact
thai thuro has been a rebellion, and innocent
ly seem to expect that tlio people will ho
equally dumb; apparently entertaining tho
idea or tho ostrich, who believes that when
Ins head is thrust into tlio did bis holy is out
ot sight. Hut allow nso to quoto a passage
from it.
"At present eleven Slatesaro excluded from
I be National Council, For seven long months
tho present Congr si has persistently denied
any representation to Urn people of these
States. Laws nll'e, ting-their highest and
dearest intersts have been past ed without their
consent, nnd in iMsregard of tho fundamental
principle of free government-"
Ifcro it comphlins in piteous terms that for
seven mouths 'eleven Htatcs have not been
represented In Congress, but makes norof.r
enco whatever to tlio manner in which the
Senator and Representatives from those
States wont out ol" Congress, or tho condition
of those States lor tho live years preceding
tlucse seven months.
Il'atreclJto treat tlio sulij ict as if tlio Sjiia
. tors and Representatives from those Slates had
been rudely expelled from Congress, without
causoor fault on tho part, and wickedly kepi
out of their seats for tho long period of seven
months, and very foolishly tries to ignore the
fact that Iheso Senators and Representatives
flvo yours belore that time, and in violation of
their oaths, bad voluntarily abandoned their
seats ami inaugurated a cruel war, in which,
after a cosily and bloody struggle of lour
years, they were overwhelmingly ilefe itod.
The ulicmpt to suppress the facts o! history,
and keep out of sight tho many events which
mark the annals of tho rebellion, is an admis
sion clearly fatal to the protended honesty and
soundness of their docl l ines.
Again they say:
'As essential to national union, wo nnsl
maintain unimpaired tlio rights, tlio dignity
and tho oquaiitv of tlio States, including tlio
right of representation In Congress, unci the
exclusive rlghtof cacti State to control Us own
domestic concerns, subject onlvto tlio Consti
tution of tlio United States."
N iw, all this is a mere trick of words,
intended to obscure the truth There is no
issuo involved concerning ilio rights or the
dignity and equality of tho States, hut the real
question is, what shall h"tho slatusor condi
tion of (! rehvlliim inhnbilmiln of Ihu rebel
States; upon what terms shall th"y be admit
ted back to tlio enjoyment of political rlnhls.
and what securi y shall be taken, what guar
antees exacted by the loyal people of the na
tion to prevent the horrors and atrocities of an
other rebellion?
Ill conclusion, tho million ies of this
Call ISC the following language ;
o therefore respectfully but earnest
ly urge upon civ follow citizens in each

desired to bo questioned upon any point

returned full nud satisfactory answers,

clearly the elli.'ient handling ut our

In thu miti-t of tho clamor raised
against Congress for what it did and
wh it il refused lo do , there seems to.be
a disposition to ignore o-.'.ii'cly the fact
Ihal il red lived t!u d muesli,! taxation t'
iho. extent ot some seveiity-livo million:
of dollars a year, in aeeor.i.mcc with llu
recommend ilions of the U venuu Cum-
inisMou. This fact is of ipiile as much
importance to the misses id the people
as the redueiioii of the principal of tin
nali mal debt ; for tho load of laxatiotn
had become too greit I r tho pro peri v
of llie co'P try, and h id not relief been
thus idfot'lvd", the levenues wherewiih
the debt is being paid off would have
fallen off so largely as to arrest the re
duction of the debt. Congress, by abol
islniig the cumulative luxes that preyed
upon the v ery vitals of our uianufi'cliir-
ing industry, his improved ihu prospects
of homo labor and home c ipiial, s icu r
ed remunerative omploymoiit to the poor
man, and at the same time lightened (he

It is true that ihe reduction miglit !u

desirous that the revenues should not ho

llier. At the next session wo cannot
doubt that a slill lurther abolition or re
duction of taxes will be idl'cetcd, though
not to so great an extent as to impair
the revenues, it being deemed best to
maintain these at as largo a total as may
bo consistent with thepiirpose of paving
off the national dent, without opprusiive"

It inu-t be remembered tint we can-
li"t hope to pay oil" the debt if, by rodiie.
, log onr revenues loo iaigely, we take
away from the govel mn-'iit, 'lliat surplus

while it lias pie-ervid llio revenue wiih
a view to the c.oijt nuance of the work of

I As the country inc' ea- cs in populu'ion,
and the south recuperates fiom the de.-

will atiginent steadily even while wo
