Henry Wurtl Beecher litis written the following letter in reply to the request from a special committee that lie would officiate its chaplain of tlie Soldiers'ami Sailors' Convention, to lie held in Cleveland, Ohio, on trie 17th in.st: PKKKSKIISL, Aug. ;5(, lsi;t;. Charles G. I Tat pine, Brevet Brigadier General; If. IV. S/oritm, Major Gener al; Gordon Granger, Maj. General, ('ommiller: Gentlemen —l am obliged to you for the invitation which you have math; to me to act as chaplain to the Conven tion of Soldiers and Sailors about to convene at Cleveland, i canhot at tend it, but I heartily wish it and all other conventions, of what party soev er, success, whose object is the restora tion of all the States lutein rebellion to their Federal relations. Our theory of Government has no place for a State except in the Union. It is justly taken for granted that the duties and responsibilities of a State in J Vdera! relations tend to its political health, and to that of the whole na tion. F.ven Territories are hastily brought in, often before the prescribed conditions are fulfilled, as if it were dangerous to leave a community out side of the great body politic. Had the loyal Senators and Repre sentatives of Tennessee been admitted at once on the assembling of Congress, and, in moderate succession, Arkansas, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina and Virginia, the public mind of the S nth would have been far more heal thy than it is, and timsg States which lingered on probation to the last would have been under a more salutary influ ence to good conduct than if a dozen armies watched over them. livery month that we delay this healthful step complicates the case. The excluded population, enough un settled before, grow more irritable; the army becomes indispensable to local government, and supersedes it; the Government at Washington is called to interfere in one and another difficul ty, and this will be done inaptly, and sometimes with great injustice—for our Government, wisely adapted to its own proper functions, is utterly de void of those habits, and unequipped with the instruments which fit a cen tralized government to exorcise author ity in remote States over local attain*. Every attempt to perform such duties has resulted in mistakes which have excited the nation. lint whatever im prudence there may be in the method, the real criticism should be against the requisition of such duties of the Gener al Government. The Federal Government is unfit to exercise minor police and local govern ment,anil will inevitably blunder when it attempts it. To keep a half score of States under Federal authority, but without national ties and responsibili ties; to oblige the central authority to govern half the territory of the Lin ion by Federal civil officers and by the ar my, is a policy not only uncongenial to our ideas and principles, but pre-em inently dangerous to the spirit of our Government. However humane the ends sought and the motives, it is, in fact, a course of instruction, preparing our Government to he despotic, and fa miliarizing the people to a stretch of authority which can never be other than dangerous to liberty. f am aware that good men are with held from advocating the prompt and successive admission of the exiled States hv the fear chiefly of its effect upon parties and upon freed men. It is said that if admitted to Congress the Southern Senatorsand Representa tives will coalesce with Northern Dem ocrats and rule thecountry. Is this na tion, then, to remain dismembered to serve the ends of parties.' Have ue learned no wisdom by the history of the last ten years, in which just tins course of sacritieing the nation to the exigencies of parties plunged us into rebellion and war? Even admit that the power would pass into the hands of a party made up of Southern men, and the hitherto dis honored and misled Democracy of the > North, that power could not he used l just as they pleased. The war has (11. .V. I'IiANKI.IN PIKIiCK. We {five above a portmit of Ex-President Pierce. We do this to revive the recollection of old times, when the Union was not dissolved, when the country was not three thousand millions of dollars in debt, and to remind the Democracy that they can. if they will, make another Pierce campaign of it in ISIS. Besides Gen. Pierce i,s to-day one of the truest and brave-* of the defenders of the Consti tution and the Union in all New England. Let his honest face inspire us all with renewed courage in our struggle for the Right. changed, not alone institutions, hut ideas. The whole country has advan ced. Public sentiment is exalted far beyond what it has been at any former period. A new party would, like a river, he to seek its channels in the already existing slopes and forms of the continent. We have entered a new era of liber ty. The style of thought is freer and more noble. The young men of our times are regenerated. The great ar my has been a school, and hundreds of thousands of men are gone homo to preach a truer and nobler view of hu man rights. All the industrial inter ests ot society are moving with increas ed toward intelligence and lib erty. Everywhere, in churches, in literature, in natural sciences, in phys ical industries, in social questions, as well as in politics, the nation feels that the winter is over, and a new spring hangs in the horizon and works through all the elements. In this happily chan ged and advanced condition of things, no party on the retrograde can main tain itself. Everything marches and parties must march. I hear with-wonder and shame and scorn the fear of a few that the South once more in adjustment with the Fed eral Government will rule this nation! The North is rich—never before so rich; the South is poor—never before so poor. The population of the North is nearly double that of the South. The industry of the North, in diversity, in forwardness and productiveness, in all the machinery and education required for manufacturing, is half a century in advance of the South. < 'li arches in the North crown every hill, and schools swarm every neighborhood; while the South has hut scattered lights, at long distances, like lighthouses twinkling along the edge of a continent of dark ness. In the presence of such a con trast, how mean and craven is the fear that the South will rule the policy of the land! That it will have an influ ence, that it wiil contribute, in time, most important influences or restraints, we are glad to believe. Rut if it rises at once to the control of the Govern ment, it will he because the North, de moralized by prosperity, and besotted by grovelling interests, refuses to dis charge its share of political duty. In such a case the South not only will con trol the Government, hut it ought to do it. It is feared, with more reason, that the restoration of the South to her full independence will he detrimental to! the freed men. The sooner we dismiss from our minds the idea that the freed men can be classified and separated from the white population, and nursed and defended by themselves, the bet ter it will be for them and us. The negro is part and parcel of Southern so ciety. lie cannot be prosperous while it is unprospered. Us evils will re hound upon him. Its happiness and reinvigoration cannot he kept from his participation. The restoration of the South to amicable relations with the North, the reorganization of us indus dustry, the reinspiration of its enter prise and thrift will all redound to the freed men's benefit. Nothing is so dan gerous to the freed men as an unsettled state of society in the South. On him comes all the spite and anger and ca price and revenge. He will lie made the scapegoat of lawless and heartless men. Unless we turn the Government into avast military machine there can not he armies enough to protect the freedmen while Southern society re mains insurrectionary. If Southern society is calmed, settled, and occupied, and soothed, with new hope- and pros perous industries, no armies will be needed. Riots will subside, lawless hangers on wi.l be driven off or better governed, and away will be gradually opened up to the freedmen, through education and industry, to full citizen ship, with all its honors and duties. Civilization is a growth. None can escape that forty years in the wilder- j uess who travel from the Egypt of ig-' n oral ice to the promised land of civili-! /ation. The freednien must take their march. I have full faith in the results. If they have the stamina to undergo) the hardships which every uncivilized ; people has undergone in their upward progress, they will, in due time, take i their place among us. That place can not be bought, nor bequeathed, nor gained by slight of hand. It will come ; to sobriety, virtue, industry and fru- j gality. As the nation cannot be sound until the South is prosperous, so, on I the other extreme, a healthy condition i of civil society in the South is indis- j pcnsable to the welfare ot the freed- j man. Refusing to admit loyal Senators, and Representatives from the South to Congress will not help the freedmen.— j It will not secure for thein the vote.— It will not protect them. It will not j secure any amendment of our Consti tution, howeverjust and wise. It will only increase the dangers and compli-j cate.the difficulties. Whether we re gard the whole nation, or any section of it or class in it, the first demand of our time is, entire reunion. Once united, we can, by schools, churches, a free* press and increasing free speech, attack each evil and secure every good. Meanwhile, the great chasm which j rebellion made is not filled up. It j grows deeper and stretches wider! < )ut i of it rise dread spectres and threatening j sounds. Let that gulf he closed, and j bury in it slavery, sectional animosity j and all strifes and hatreds! It is fit that the brave men, who, on sea and land, faced death to save the! nation, should now, by their voice and j vote, consummate what their swords rendered possible. For the sake of the freedmen, for the j sake of the South and its mil l ions of j our fellow-countrymen, for our own : sake, and for the great causeof freedom j and civilization, I urge the immediate j reunion of all the parts which rebellion i and war have shattered. I am, truly yours, HKNKY WAKD RKKCIIEK. ; it £>| r.i,!( ItKIIT. The New York Tribune lias a fling at i a "cart loadof'rich men" in New York,; who lately came out from the Radical.-, j and took active part in the l'hiladel-! phia Convention and in the reception ; of the President in New York. Now, we do not suppose that A. T. LEWIS,! MOSES TAYLOR, MARSHALL O. Ho -1 I HKRTS, the VAXDERHIETS, and the rest composing the "cart load" need any defence from any one, or that they will make any apology to the Tribune for their conduct. But people will in quire, why did they take the course they have taken! The answer is easy, and should be well pondered by other men, rich and not rich, who hold the bonds of the United States Government, and their answer is: 1. This "cart load of rich men" are large holders of the securities of the United States. They live and move at a centre where they see and know all the ef fects, accomplished and probable, of the policy of the Radicals upon those securities. 3. They are justly alarmed at the proposal to keep the Uniondi vided for three years or indefinitely, for if the Radicals succeed in this the interest cannot be paid, and anarchy may pos sibly.ensue, in which case our bonds would be worthless. Now these rich men may be very poor politicians, but they are very good financiers anil those who own the bonds, or desire to maintain the public credit right, do well to take the advice ot # STEWAIIT, and TAYLOR, and HU BERTS. — Pittsburg Post.

It is mean enough to lie under any circumstances, hut to makeinvoluntary liars of all who believe you and repeat your statements, is infernally mean. We saw a respectable Republican the other day caught in the predicament— o.ie who got his information from the ilarrishurg Telegraph—a\v\ who, to make the best vindication of his char acter he could, stamped the paper 1111- deu his feet.

"J shot down southern traitors to preserve the Uhiou, and I intend to vote down northern traitors for the same purpose." This was a pertinent and truthful answer, and no m.stake. If President Johnson and those who sustain him are not the true Union party—are not striving to accomplish precisely what the noble Union armies fought for—why is it that three-fourths of the distinguished officers, who com manded those armies, are supporting the President's policy? In fact nearly all whose names were conspicuous dur ing the war are doing so. Amongst them are such heroes as Grant, Farra gut, Sherman, Sheridan, Dix, Slocum, McCook, Rosecrans, McCiernand and Averill.

"In the trying labors before the Pres ident, he will look to the people for his main support. Lot the people, therefore, in all parts of the country, look with confidence to the President. Andrew Johnson established his devo tion to his country in the fiery ordeal of the rebellion. No man making the same sacrifices for his country which he offered, can he unfaithful now in its support, when on his action depend the future strength and influence of the government he administers." — Ilurrin hitnj Telegraph, Dec.
