Why is this? we sirug- F ■ 1 maintain the rightful suprenta f the General Government, to inii ■ all who in arms assailed its author iiid to make every relxdlious citizen Ito its laws. We held, through ■■ war, that the Union was indis -1 e, and its powers, as e.xpouiideii st onrts supreme: that no Slate can -own motion \> ithdraw, or, at the of its sister States Ik- excluded, and tiio duty ofeaeh State to maintain Union anil its right to take part in Government are alike absolute, vry object of the war ever recog >l by or known tothearmyand na :> Si-en thoroughlyachie\cd. Tltc in ru people, decimated, impover i and subdued, have for more than -•iir )nist abandoned the Rebellion <t now only ask that the Union for i ll we fought may bo recognized as e iiig, and that they may be dealt :h as the Constitution and laws pre ■iiie. In their anxiety to restore the ie Union, and bring harmony to its mciJs, they have gone beyond a mere t submission to its laws. '!! 1 rough their delegates at the Nation- Union Convention they solemnly re cited the doctrines of nullification ■i secession, from which the war a - . repudiated the Rebel debt, and u'ed of sac red obligation the Nation proclaimed the faith of the un pledged tothecontinuanee of boun - anil j.ensions to loyal soldiers and rs and their families, declared sla -*y forever abolished, and the freed - L entitled to the legal protei-tion ol l> .air, la prui ami property, with I ;former masters. Their platform it only one of emphatic loyally, :i' is moreover, 1110s liberal in spir oil the great issues growing out 01 war. IF- character of the men who repre -1 the Sou thern States intliat Con inn precludes us from believing enunciation of principles to be in ert-. They sent to it their foremost -men—men who, like Rives, Gra in, (>rr, Parsons, Sharkey, Houston, enborouglt, Hunt, Manning and hens, were known throughout the llietore tin- war as men ol'tlu higit iractcr and influence. Among the five liundred delegates t he- South there was not a voice or '"<!.-seating from the resolutions u "i iiy the Convention, If the best ■'■ Southern people are ever to be !>e i u must accept these solemn dec ■'.mils as sincere. We do accept ■ inclusive evidence that a great ritv of the Southern people, sick of i anarchy, and longing for a res . of free govern merit, are ready w true allegiance to the Constitu -1 laws of the Union. A are. therefore, unwiiling to see s - it hem peojile held longer ;n vie- Y'They are our countrymen, cit - uftlie United State-, who have 111- 1 penalties, hut who have rights. - who wilfully participated in the lion and are unpardoned arc sub tile jK'iialtiea preserilKxl for trea- But tluiugli individuals may l>e ; invicted and punished, commu - annot, nor can the States and ix'ople, without a plain violation • Constitution, be denied the rigiir , "'sicn tat ion through men person ; .aliiieil in the counsels of the na- " intention of < tongress was to be "ive them of representation just its it suit.- the purpose's of the party. Many assert that it will I' l the'right whenever the consti-i ■ a amendment shall have been a- j '•I. an 1 each proscribed State shall ratified it.

As there is no "'ty that the amendment will lie ratified by three-fourths of the States, the plan of restoration which Congress appears to have determined on is at best impracticable. That proposed by the President and approved bv the Na tional Union Convention is feasible, and we believe safe. We have no fear thet the South can ever overthrow the Fed eral Government, or ever disturb its ca reer of power and glory. They will la-' the lust of the States to rebel* and if they shall again rise in insurrection the loyal people can ami will subdue, and, if need be, destroy thern. The Government has asserted its pow er for self-preservation, and the devas tation and misery of theSouth proclaim to this generation, at least, the crime and the terrible penalties of treason. Beholding their woes and contrasting their weakness and our strength, we could afford to show tin' confidence and courage of magnanimity. We might well let <uir vanquished opponents a rise,and like James Fitz James at Corl tangle Ford, staunch their wounds and forgive their treason. Hut we are not asked to be magnanimous, but only con sistent and just. This we cannot re iuse to be without u violation of the Constitution of our country and risk of it.s utter overthrow. We seek and will haveno association in political action with men, North or South, who are not avowedly, in our opinion, sincerely faithful totheconsti tutional principle- fur which we fought. But if men who have taught or practic ed treason now openly renounce their errors, and maintain with us the true principles of our (ioverument, we shall not reject their co-operation, when the restoration of the Union and the pres ervation of our form of Government are in issue, however much we regret to cherish political associations and to co-operate with former enemies. We must prefer to act with those who have been wrong and are now right, ratherthan with those who were right, and now are wrong. Believing that our Government is again in peril, we appeal to you who have fought to save it, and who hold it dearer and more sacred than all party ties, to come to the rescue. Let the soldiers and sailors agreeing with us in sentiment, but who cannot in person attend, send delegates through the action of their societies, or of local conventions. Let us meet in force at Cleveland on the 17th of September, the anniversary of the day when the Constitution was proclaimed by our forefathers, and let Os aid in restoring the Union it creat ed, and the liberties it was ordained to to secure.
