THE END OF THE WIGtVAM,
And the Flight of t he Wltf AVariuviM.
Our city has been greatly excited this week
by the presence of some of Geneinl Lee's army
among us, and of other hot ttnd cold-blooded of
tho chivalry, the bare recollection of which,
now that it is over, almost makes us shiver our
selves. The coolness with which everything hs
been done, including the thermometer itself,
must be a source of gratitude to all those who
, like that sort of thing; and now that the Con
vention i9 adjourneJ sine die, we hope the
boards of the Wigwam will be taken care of, the
nails pulled out carefully, and the planks of the
platform laid back again in the pile, to be sold
to some respectable builder, and never be heard
of Rgain; not like other "platform planks," be a
source of contention for all time to come.
Previous to adjournment, we learn that Mr,
II. J. Raymond, editor of the New York Hard
Times, had the honor of writing and reading an
Address to the people of the United States,
which brought down the house, or would have
brought it down, had not Mr, Co'lgday, the
builder, prudently provided against such an
event by bolts and braces. Thus wiUi him bolt-
. ing the Wigwam, and Vullandigham and. Wood
bolting the Convention, things were made
strong enough to stand any amount ot resolu
tions that the Wig-warmers might resolve on.
JJnring the closing ceremonies a large Spread
Eagle made its appearance over t!ie stand de
voted to "spread-eagleism," and Mr. George
Francis Train immediately recognized the
"burd" by its having a claws in it devoted to
the Fenians.
The attendance and the ladies were unusually
large, so one reporter tells us, and they watched
the proceedings with the greatest interest.
The Convention now and then got in a resolu
tion that had some point in it, particularly the
nc thanking Mayor McMichacl for the excellent
police arrangements which allowed no visitor to
get into th building without a good deal of
wrangling first with them outside, and any "con
fusion or disturbance inside," se the resolution
expresses .it,, "was nipped in the bud." The
'"nippers" used for the purpose were here shovr
"1e the audience by Mr. Doolittle, u
SENATOR DOOLITTLE EXHIBITS THE NIPPERS. 13
The thanks of the Convention were voted to
the citizens of Philadelphia for their kindness,
to the different Railway Conductors for ex
cluding the "darks" from the Passenger Cars
during the hours of the Convention, to the
Hotels for the superior accommodations in their
entries all night, with such good ventilation,
and to the newspaper press for such correct and
Taxied descriptions of Mr. Alexander II.
fitephens. And finally, after the closing prayer,
in imitation of the man who, being in a fix in
asking a blessing before meat, "finished his
prayer" by a "yours, respectfully," they burst
forth into a three cheers and a tiger, and then
quietly hlmnicred down.

THE PRESS AT THE I.A PIERKE.
It appears the Press Gang of Philadelphia, not
winning to be outdone by that gang at the Wig'
warn had a Convention of themselvei at the La
Ticrre House on Thursday night, In which,
thought they did not eat their own words (as
many did at the Wigwam, Mr. inx, example),
they did eat something that was as good,
Although their words on the occasion were good
and well seasoned, the spice having been fur-
alshea out tl the twenty-four lach Castor of Mr,
Train.
Alter the truest had taken their seat, Mr. E. F.
U.,11. 1. J. K. Greene made a bncf speech, but not
loo. brief, fudging from the anxiety of the hungry"
reporters to get at the "item they saw before
them, announcing lion. Morton McMichacl
Chairman of the evrning, who can Doolittle at
most anything. The Mayor told the Gang now
to make the most of what was before them,
and not to minco matters. Whether the Gang
undeistood this order of their Chairman as a
Joke we can't say, but they certainly did mince
mattcic, and instead of making the most o
everj thing, they made the least of it, in fact, a
majority of the things disappeared entirely.
The Gang now having got pretty full, but not
too lull for utterance, the Chairman made some
tunny remark in the style of the Answers to
Correspondent". When offered a plate of
peaches hl answer was "Declined with thanks,"
or "Crowded out for want of room," or "Owing
to a press of matter declined,'' which familiar
expressions showed that the Mayor once run a
paper. The Press Gang were glad to see their
brethren from the North, the South, tho East, r
the Went, and he hoped that when those infamous
laws were wiped out of our statute book (hear,
hear) forbidding Railroad companies to Issue
dead-head tickets, we should see our brethren
from abroad otten. (Immense cheering.) Let's
take a drink. (Great laughter.)
Mr. Theodore Tilton then rose, and notwith
standing the general tending to tilt-on by the
whole Gang at this time, hW speech was listened
to with respect. Theodore thanked tho com
pany for their wiue and cordial greeting. Ho
said he regarded being an editor as great an
honor as being a member of Congress, though
Judge Kelley might think differently. Ills
motto was that carried at the head of the Inde'
pendent for the pnst dozen years. "Terms, $300
a tear. Truth is mighty and must prevail.
If paid in advance," and to that he should
adhere until the publisher altered tho price.
Mr. Pollard, of the Richmond Examiner then
rose. He said he would rather be an editor
than a member of Congress, especially of the
past Congress; considered that an editor had
greater freedom, and subject to less restrictions.
Look at Mr. Rousseau, who for a small caning
skirmish, which in the editorial sense would be
reckoned a very small one, was forced to resign
his position in Congress, yet he himself, this
past year, had caned two New York Herald re
porters, and shot one Republican, and felt no
other effects from it than a greatly increased
subscription list to the Examiner. It made tears
stand in his eyes when he saw Massachusetts
and South Carolina walk arm and arm In the
Convention, and he thought that It the members
of thepics present this evening had tar to go
to get home, they had better do the same thing.
(Great cheering.)
Hon. William D. Kelley, in response to loud
calls, next spoke, and told of the time when he
began "reading proof," sitting twelve hours on
a type box, in the capacity of a "devil," and he
could bring more proof to show that he was a
"dpy.il" atjthat time than any editor or reporter
present, (Cheers.) "I do not mean to discuss
politics. I Ufive my political views, but I am
not going to make nil CXlMHion of them to
night, although they would compf.re favorably
with any dissolving views ever exhibited any
where." (Cheers.) Judge Kelley, in conclusion,
proposed some Toast for the Press Club of Phi
ladelphia, which was forthwith ordered.
Mr. George Francis Train now came in on
time and began to ta"lk, but as his speeches have
been so otten repeated before, we will omit it
here. Other speakers lollowed, of diversified
opinions on many things, but all went in for the
Constitution, and believed in taking care of it
by eating nothing but the best victuals.

THE GREAT CONVENTION.
A DREAM BY A SOLDIER.
"Sound the trumpet, beat tbe drams,"
Behold, tbe Great Convention comes.
From North and South thev hurry on
To Council in tbe "Big Wigwam."
Oh I what trae and loyal band,
Will shake each other by the hand!
And Philadelphia then shall see
The old and tried Democracy.
All have arrived, and in the ball
Tbe chiefs and sachems, one and all,
Jn little knots together stand,
Consulting bow they'll save tbe land ;
When suddenly, from oat the throng
A voioe is beard both loud and strong :
"To order, come 1 All uproar eease !
Trcpare to smoke the Pipe of Peace!"
The pipe is passed from month to month,
North fives a puff, and then (be Sooth;
No sound is beard among tbe braves,
Each is aa silent as tbe grave,
Tbe smoking through, a voice proclaims,
" 'lis time now to adjust onr claims;
Our rights and privileges to protect,
A President we will elect."
"Bifh on a throne of royal state,"
Is placed Valiandigbam tbe Great;
Bravest of Copperheads is he,
All honor to bis Majesty.
Behind bim sits, in high command,
Guerilla Moseby, trom whose band
Danplcs the scalp of many a brave,
Now sleeping In a patriot's grave.
Then from his seat tho monarch rose,
Gave a slight coueh, and blew bis nose,
And thus he spake: "Kind friends and true,
The time has come to dare and do.
The radicals, tbe last iour years,
Have caused our nation many tears;
Have filled our hearts and homes with woe,
And pkced our chiel in Fort Monroe.
"My noble friends, can this bo borne?
Must we of glory still be shorn?
Shall all tho efflces be filled
By Union men, who preached to kill
Our Southern orethren when tnoy tried
The Constitution to o'erridef"
(Loud cries of No!) "What we must do
Is, to entice the Boys in Blue
"Into onr Wigwam, and traduce
The characters which are no use
Ol all the men In clEce now,
Kxcept Raymond and bis crowd,
Who our staunch friends do yet remain,
Film to the principles we sustain!
The first of which, my friends, is this:
But ham! what means that fearful hiss?"
Up from their seats thon sprang tho Braves,
In fierce and terrible amaze;
With hate intense they looked about,
'Mid the loud cries of "Put bim out!"
Then there was hurrying to and fro,
Each one desired to strike a blow,
When throuith the din came clear the words:
"I gave tbe hiss ! Let me be heard !"
There was silence deep among the throng
As a Union soldier passed along;
With scornlul eye bis look he bent
Upon the noble President.
"For most four years" he Pdd "I helped
To lay seceeiion on the shelf;
1 hate all traitors, aud tell you,
You'll never catch the 'Boys in Blue.' "
1 hen wild and high the shouts arose,
From the boys around in soldier clothes:
"We want no traitors to dictate
To ns the way to save the State.
We trust our Congress, and no tears
llave we !" Again the cheers
Bang through the air so loud and long, '
That the Great chief said, "Let's adjourn."
