Tbe Right ol Free Assemblage.
Iris curious lo observe bow eaflllTi when par
tisan ends are to be subHcrTed, the simplest and
plainest principles of a republican form of gov
ernment are forgotten or ignored. Thus we
find our Democratic editors, almost without ex
ception, Itmtifylntr the breaking-up ol the late
Union Convention In New Orleans, on the
ground that it wa an "lllel assemblage.'
But, let us Inquire of these gentlemen, what i
aa Illegal assemblage? Is an assemblage that
passes obnoxious resolutions, or that tolerates
unpleasant speeches, or that holds , unpopular
sentiments to be reaarded as "Illegal?" If so.
we fancy that our Democratic bretbren will
hold very few legal meetings at the North this
fall.
But we shall be answered that the New Orleans
Convention wai an illegal assemblage, because
its existence, as a legal and valid convention,
had ceased becaiue it assumed to art in a false
capacity. But this is a disputed point. The
Convention and its friend hold that it was a
legal and valid body. The Go vei nor of the StatfT
held it to be so. In snch a caso who shall decide ?
Shall the mob? Shall the Judge of a Court
before the case has arisen, or come belore him ?
Shall the President ? But grant, lor the 6ake of
the argument, that the Convention had not only
ceased to exist validly as a Convention, but had
never been one at all, would that constitute it
an illegal assemblage? By no means. No peace
able assemblage in this country ever was, or
ever can be an illegal asacmblage, so long as it
confines itsolf to discussion, or to acts on paper.
There must be overt acts, tiangressing some
one's rights, belore the law is violated. A
hundred men might assemble In our
city to-day; might claim to bo a con
stitutional convention; might pass laws and
ordinances by the volume; might call one
ol their number Governor of the State, or
President of the United States, if they pleased;
might reso've in lavor ot changing this Gov
ernment into a monarchy, or of attaching the
United States to the domain" of the Czar; and
in no respect whatever would they be an illegal
assemblage. But if they attempted to carry
these resolutions, enactments, ordinances, or
what not Into force should their ecli-styled
Governor attempt to turn the real Governor out
of his office should they attempt to arrest a
citizen on the streets, or to levy and collect a
tax, or to do any other thing involving a trespass
on the rights of others, then buch action on the
part of the person or persons doing it would
be Illegal. We have had a Fenian organization
in this country now lor a year, holding "Con
gresses" and other assemblies, transacting busi
ness ostensibly lor an Irish republic; but
nobody called it illegal, or attempted to inter
fere with it, until it perpetrated overt acts
against the law. No peaceable assemblage
in this country is an illegal assem
blage. II it claim a character to which
it is not entitled, that fact can only
be determined by some competent authority,
in connection with some overt act. Hid the
Louisiana Convention been an invalid and illegal
one, that was a question to be determined by
the appropriate authority. The very fact that
illegal and violent measures were taken to break
it up, affords a strong presumption that it was a
valid body, and that its action was feared by its
toes. That, however, is a point that we do not
care to discuss in this article. We simply desire
to call the attention of our political opponents
to the daDgerous precedent they are setting,
when they endorse the bri'aking-up of a peace
ful assemblage on the ground that it is an illegal
one. We need not point out to them where such
a doctrine would bo likely to lead to, nor who
would probably the soonest have occasion to
pray lor deliverance tromit.
Who Constituted the Clymer Soldier Con
vention ?
s the utmost consequence has been made by
the Democratic party of the Soldici's Conven
tion in favor of Heistkr Clymsr, which met in
Harrisburg, a few days since, we feel a natural
interest in the record of those who con
atituted its members. This interest we desire to
have gratitied. The Convention apparently saw
the impossibility ot giving us any ligh
on the subject. Upon the authority of the
editor ot the Harrisburg Teleqraph, we ar:
told, that the following resolution was otfered
referred to a committee, and there incontinently
strangled:
" Whereas, It is asserted in the Republican
newspapers that the members of this Conven
tion wereskedaddlers aurt bounty-Jumpersduring
the wai : And whereas, In order to disprove this
charge, be it
"hesolved, That the Secretaries of this Con
vention be instructed to prepare a list of dele
gates, with their rank, companies, and regi
ments, while in the armv."
We wonder why it is that this list was not
-placed before the public ?
The Telegraph, desirous of doing all it can to
aid tbe people In seeing clearly the martial
record oi the members, gives us a list of such as
are within its personal knowledge. As several
Philadelphlans are returned, we give it below:
Colonel W. D. Lewis, HOtb Itegimeut; entered
service October 21, 1801; resigned December 20,
18C2.
Adjutant C. 8. Tvson; in service six months,
and in no lighting.
Major J AMB8 Ellis, Quartermaster; resigned
December 20, 1862: afterwards made Maior ol a
100 day regiment that did not leave Reading.
Colonel J. S. McCalmont; in service aoout ten
months; at but not in the skirmish at Dratnes
vule. Lieutenant A. B. Tate, 136th; in service nine
months; be did no rtehtlng.
Colonel Robebt Anderson, 9th Reserves; dis-
Major R. B. Pktbieen; in ttrec mouths' ser
vice; no fight.
Captain E. I. Eeenan, Sitrnal Corps; not a
fighting corps.
Colonel J. B. McAllister, 7th Cavalry; in
eervioe seven months; no tight.
Adjutant I. Uncapukb, 11th Regiment; re
signed 1861.
If this be the style of men who constituted the
Convention, we do not wonder that the commit
tee, with unusual intelligence, suppressed a list
of the members, with a biographical sketch of
their military records.
Selp-Elected. A lot of "gentlemen from the
Pacific coast" got together in New York city the
other evening, and elected themselves delegates
for California and Nevada to tho Philadelphia
Convention. No doubt these self-elected gentle
men will correctly represent tie people of those
ttca.
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PniLADEH'IIIA, SATUUDAT,
The Ilxtia Bounty mil-Whom It Affect.
Thkkb rooms to be a general misunderstanding
in regflrd to the Bounty bill passed by Oongtoss
the last day of the session, whioh grams
$100 extra bounty to three-year soldiers and
$M) to two-year men. The evil effects of the
anticipated windfall have already begun to be
visible among those of tho working classes who
expect to receive tho money under tbe law;
and numerous rases have come nnder our
notice in which steady and Industrious hands
have either bo deported themselves as to en
danger their places, or have thrown up their
situations In anticipation. To them wo will eay
a word, after explaining the bill. The first part
to be noticed Is, Ibat tho $50 section has nothing
to do With the soldiers ot this Stale. It was
introduced for the benefit oi the "two-year"
regiments of New York and Indiana. Penn
sylvania sent no two-year rrcimenU out. Mon
from our State who have served two years in a
tliree-jcar regiment di not come under this sec
tion, and they take nothing under the act unless
discharged for wovnds.
boldiers who had enlfotcd for three years and
have been discharged lor disability belore their
tt rm of service bail expired, do not tall under the
provisions ol the law. It is probable that they
will be attended to next session, but under the
present Bounty bill they are not entitled to any
pay. This seen s to us like injustice. It is cer
tainly only lair that men who have expressed a
desire to serve three years, and who have only
been prevented by their health failing them,
while striving to do their duty, should be treated
the same as though they bad served out their
enlisted time. It was been use ol no fault of
theirs that nature was not sufficiently strong.
The spirit indeed was willing, though the fie.sh
was weak.
Again, veteran volunteers do not come under
the law. They have already received more than
the $100, and this extra bounty is expressly
eraiited only to such as have not recelveJ bere
folore that sum. As the law at present stands,
the only persons clearly entitled are tho soldiers
of 1801. 1HC2, or lHii'J, who have served out
three years, or have been discharged for
wounds; or the widow, orphan children,
or parents of those soldiers who have
died or been killed in service, or have died ot
wounds received or d.scse contracted in the
service, always providing that the claimant has
not already received more than $100 Govern
ment bounty. We have a few words of advice,
to add. It will require months before those
who arc entitled under the act will be enabled
to receive their due. A commission has been
appointed by the War Office to propose a plan
by which it can be carried into effect. It will
require weeks to pcrleet a plan. An appropria
tion must then be made, and finxlly, after all
preliminaries are arranged, it is probable that the
discharges will have to be presented in order, and
thus it may be a year before it will be really paid
into the recipients' hands, minus fees, to brokers
and agents, price of stamps, transmission
througn mails, and the hundred other et ceteraa
which will cause the sum to grow beautifully
less. Meanwhile let all continue in their regu
lar routine, as though nothing had been allotted
them. The little sum should be laid aside, wben
it is received, in anticipation of any untoward
emergency. Let It not be spent in rioting, and,
above all, do not assign it to agents, receiving
in return a fraction In cash tor what will surely
come if you have but patience to wait.
An Ill-Omened Comparison.
Toe Now York World calls tne New Orleans
massacre another "bleeding-Kansas atliir. The
term is an appropriate one to bo used by that
most debased and unprincipled sheet. "Bleed
ing Kansas" was the sneering expression where
with the Democratic papers vainly endea
vored to break the torce oi the crimes and
outrages of tbe slave-power upon the people ot
a distant Territory. It is tic that it should now
be dragged torth to serve a similar purposo with
reference to the murder of Union men by Rebels
in New Orleans. It shows that the Democratic
party of to-day, so far as the World speaks lor
it, is inspired by the same ruffian spirit which,
ten years ago, impelled it to deeds of rapine and
murder In Kansas.
It is the old contest over again; and as the
Free-State nu n finally triumphed in Kansas, in
spite of pro-slavery, Democratic fraud and vio
lence, so, we trust, that the Union men of
Louisiana will in the end achieve the victory,
despite the murderous opposition of Rebels at
home and the sneers of Rebel sympathizers
abroad.
One ot our monitors, the Mianionomah, that
lately crossed the ocean and Is now at London,
seems to have startled the Englishmen terribly.
They have nothing that could cope with her,
and they aver that, in spite of the whole British
navy, she could steam up the river Thames to
London Bridge and toss shell into tbe House of
Parliament and into the Queen's palaces. Per
haps this accounts for the readiness of the Eng
lish Government to settle the Alabama claims. '
How Treason Cannot be Made Odious.
They have a way of "putting things" out West,
that, to say the least of it, is very expressive.
Among tho resolutions ot a lato Union Conven
tion in Illinois, we find the following:
"Kcsolvrd. That 'treason must be made odious.'
but that ii caurot be made odious by givinir
lie be Is seats in Congress, nor by feeding Jkpfer-
son Davis on pouched eggs and tried oysters.
Genu r At Sheridan says that the police in
New Orleans could have made any arrest that
they saw fit without the shedding ot blood. Of
course they could, but arrests were not what
they were alter. The police were part and
parcel of the mob, and the design was to break
ud the Convention and murder Its Wiing
ruprntcr.
