"The welcome which the Union Loacuc of Philadelphia will give to the Convention is as BtronR proof of this harmony of sentiment as could bo given, for the Leaiue may honestly claim to represent the Union party, not only In Pennsylvania, but throughout the North. We know of no body ot men who, utirinp the war, displayed a nobler determination to uphold the Government. Its influence grew to .be Im mense; it sent regiment after regiment to the field, and led with enthusiasm the loyal people of the State. In the darkest hours of the war, the Government never asked soldiers from Philadelphia that the League till not answer with a reeimcut. As It then sustained the Union, so does it no, and we are heartily glad that it will ive to the Convention a reception which will be worthy of the North. At a lecent meeting the Leaeue adooted a series ot resolutions, emphatically declaring the prin ciples of the pnrty, and an address to the mem bers of the Convention, which eloquently assures them of the appreciation and aid of the Union party. It recosnizes this Convention as the nret organized ell'ort of the Union men of the 8utli to eilect the restoration of the Rebel jtStates. They are now in a minority, it is true, and with lirtle political influence at home, but as true friends of the republic durimt the Rebellion, their counsels should have vast influence with tu North. When the Southern Slates are fully restDred, it will be throueh the iniellisent and liberal efforts of Iit loyal men, working with the National Union party. The Convention, therefore, deserves the kindest and most cordial welcome, and we are glad that the League of Philadelphia h:is so well expressed the feelings of the Union party. It speaks lor all." The Radicals ami the Fculaus. JVom the World. The desperate, unnatural, and venal, but for tunately very transparent, efforts which the radical leaders and press have recently been making to cajole our Irish fellow-citizens over to their infernal plot for the dismemberment of our country, iu their evident determination to rule or ruin, is happily arousing the vigilance aDd contempt of the whole Irish race among us, than whom, it is only fair to say, no portion of our adopted fellow-countrymen have ever done or suffered nioie for the maintenance of those great principles of democracy and conser vatism which form the very foundation of a free republic like ours. When the Union was in danger ol being violently disrupted, no men flew with greater alacrity to the post of danger, and poured forth their blood more generously and freely in defense of their beloved adopted country, than did the Irish. It is, therefore, not to be wondered at if now, when that Union is already happily restored past all dauger, when peace is proclaimed through the length and breadth of our land, those same stalwart defenders of the Union should look with jealousy and suspicion upon any set of political incendiaries who, no matter in how plausible nud flattering a shape they come, would tempt tbcui into tearing open agaia the yet bleeding wounds of their country, to destroy that very Union they fought so bravely to maintain, and to plunge us alf into universal anarchy and ruin. Having had reason to feur, from the hitherto eccentric movements of oue staudinir so hierh with his couutryinen as President William li. Roberts ot the Fenian Brotherhood is supposed to do from the insidious and flattering ad vances of such radical political schemers as Logan, Colt ax, Oalesby, uud others, and from the lultotue adulation daily poured forth in the columns of such well-known haters and re vilers of the Irish race as the New York Iri hune and itu coadjutors everywhere that our Irish friends might not be sufficiently aware of the villanous snare beine laid to entrap their votes to their own destruction, we have thought fit, on one or two recent oci a?ions, to sound the note of warning. We are delighted to find it was unnecessary; lor already have our friends discovered the wolf in sheep's clothing, and already has the tocsin of alarm been sounded from one of their leading watch-towers, in tones that cannot be mistaken or unheeded. We quote elsewhere from that able advocate of all pertaining to true Irish interests and honor, the Universe, of Philadelphia, a powerful and un answerable article, which it is the duty of every true Irishman to study most attentively. The Universe reminds its readers that those radical negro-worshippers, now blarneying them so prettily to get their votes in the coining elec tion, are only the same herd of dark-lantern Know-Knowings, anti-Catholic, anti-Irish, pro negro, pro-church-and-convent-burning people whom they have such bitter cause to remem ber. It reminds them that this is the very same faction "which hits hitherto done all in its power to banish their religion from the United States, to totally disfranchise them at elections, and whose chief aim now is to command the otlices ot the republic by the hideous, unna tural, unconstitutional design of giving political equality to the blacks." It then pointedly asks low men like these men who have over and over again violated the Constitution of the United Btates, repeatedly avowed their cardinal principle that that Constitution is nothing but a covenant with iniquity can pretend to have any interest in Ireland or the Irish; in Irish men, whose platform is inscribed with the noble motto: " We pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor to maintain the Union, the Constitution, and the Ltws." But the Universe goes lurther, an! exposes, in vivid light, the infernal design of these radi cal nronacrandists to urge the countrv into an other dreadful civil conflict before they will (. forego their despotic determination to enforce j an unnatural equality between the white and black rares on this continent. Upon this point the great lrii-h organ speaks out with an em- I pbaeis that is unmistakable. It says: "We have had enough of civil conflict. The radi cals provoked the late war, and hundreds ot thou winds of our brave Irish people tell to save the in , tegrity of the Union. 1'ut they will not tipht with the radicals lor the elevation of the negro over the Constitution, over themselves, over general pubho wisdom and common se.f-rospuct. It there b a civil war on the matter and the ;adicals will pro voite one should negro suffrage be disallowod.aud dis allowed it ia curiam to us the Irish will be in arms, and that on the side of the Constitution, of law, and of order." When we find a powerful Irish orcran like this Tanged so clearly on the side of our laws and Constitution; when we know that the whole of that highly respectable body, the Irish clergy, bucked by nearly every disthiiruhed Irishman if wealth, education, position, or influence, maintain the same; when representative men like Stephens and Genetal Sweeney have de nounced all political desi,nis on the Fenian Brotherhood; when their own Coneress at Pitts burg proclaimed itselt so emphatically against stny such Political intrigues; when we find even President Roberts, under the late date of August 12, indignantly denying "that the Fenian r.rotherhood is to be used for political party purposes," we may reasonably hope that there are but very few Irishmen who could be found silly or wicked enough to desert the conserva tive law-abiding ranks to which they have ever belonged, and range themselves with their deadliest personal enemies, for nothing but their own and their countrj'e destruction Let tho radical fox piaise and flatter as he uIm at the foot of the tree, the Irish crow knows better by this time, than to open his beak ana let fall that savory on 01 cuwuuu vote tor whiih Uie Sly mewm in ov 5n.vuiij nsuiiug vciuw. : THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY,.. The Alport In Europe Pence Virtually Concluded. From the Timet. The cable news which comes down to Thnrs dny'a date is, in a measure, conclusive as to the lact that the war in Europe is, for the present, virtually ended. Short, sharp, and decisive as it was, it has cost many lives, much treasure, brought about gigantic results, and finally failed to accomplish w hat it apparently promised. The same thing happened in 185!), when Italy was to be freed 'from the Alps to the Adriatic," but tho victors stopped their onward march on the west bank of the Mincio. Now Prussia etoos on the north bank of the river Main, and the nnity of Ger many remains as much an object ot devout prayer as ever before. but this is the way that kings and princes wage war. They have, besides the general in terests ot their country, dynastic interests to look alter and care tr, and these latter are often opposed to the former. Hence, by sudden and violent turns in their course, they niauy times disappoint the expectations ot their people. The peare between Prussia and Am tiin, now negoiiating and all but conclud-d at Prague, saves the d nasty of the Hapsbunrs and enables Francis Joseph to turn against bis own people, wbo, during the last (treat misfortune of the Emperor, were clamorous lor political liberty in exctianue tor the sacrifices listed ot them. King Willinin und his minister Uismark are too much imbued with the Divine rieht principle, their ideas of government dale too fur buck in the feudal ages, that thev should tioi have feared the contagious example of liberal institutions in Aiibtria, which certainly would have been granted had the Emperor been driven anv lurther to the wall. And so, the opportunity ollering, they make peace, witu their prescribed work, for the realization of which this war was wantonly provoked, by all available means whether fair or toul, hut haft accomptihed. The dynastic influences of other monarchs also intervened, of course, but our assertion remains true, that the peace Is prf ma ture, thut it Is the work of dynastic interests, and is not commensurate with the overwhelm inc military successes of the victors. This is not the way in which the people curry on war, when they have their Government in their own hands. We Americans were deter mined to prevent the seceding States from estab lishing a separate Government, iore:gu to us. between the Potomac and the Gull; we proposed to preserve and maintain the Union of the States Inviolate, and the unity ot the peoole unbroken. We did it. We did not stop in the worlj, half way and before we had achieved that for which we went to war. We had no dynastic consi le rations to mar our military successes and diminish their results, but only the interests of the American people to protect, and as these could be protected only by the Ann cohesion of all the Slates under one Government, no croak ing, no coward prayers lor "peace on the best attainable terms'' could move the people from their purpose. The work was accomplished by the people lorthe people, and then we laid down our arms, and are now shaking hands with those as friends, who for four long years had madly opposed us. That is the people's way of making war and peace. However, looking over the events and the proercss ot this short war from a military stand point, we tind many points of resemblance to the last successful strategy in our own war. The Pruf sian operations extended from Coblentz on the Rhine to Odeibtrg on the Gallician fron tier, a distance not quite as long as from Wheel ing to Cairo. Rut just as our armies were ad vancing lrom North to South in two grand columns, one in Virginia, and the other" from Kentucky and Tennessee, so the Prussians ad vanced on two principal objective points, Vienna (which may stand for our Richmond), and Frankfort (represented in our war by Nashville) on the river liluiu, equivalent, as a Mrategicul line, to the Cumberland. We do not wish to be understood 10 mean that this comparison is in all things correct. Such parallels are seldom or never perfect, but ure chiefly resorted to to give aj better understanding by comparing that which is less known with what is thoroughly known. Following out the parallel, and for this pur pose, we have taken in the west of Germany the Rhine as answering to our Mississippi. Just as our army advanced on Richmond, concentri cally from the James river, through the Shenau doah valley, and from Washington, so did the Prussians march on Vienna from Silesia and the northeast and north boundary of Bohemia. Had Pope at Bull Run won as great a victory as King William did at Sadowa," it would have ended the war probably then, for the line of the Cumberland with the central position ol Nash ville in our hands, out off the west from the east of the Southern States as completely as the whole line ot the river Main, with Frankfort as ite chief point, under Ihe control of the Prus sians, paralyzed the Southern German States. We pressed steadily onward, pushing the enemy back further and further to the South; and so the Prussians, coming from the North as we did, have marched 1o the South, fighting for every inch of ground, and never losing what they once won. In one thing, however, there can be no com parison. The Prussians have not lost a single battle; we have lost many. The Prussians ended the war in tour weeks; we fought tor four years. But we finished our woik; they did not. There is never to be a similar war in this country; the present peace In Germany is but a truce the questions out of which the war arose are still unsolved, and other wars can only decide them.
