throw of the Rebellion and the suppression of
treasonable overtures from the North. He was
this year elected Governor of the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts, to succeed John A. Audrew.
Banis Is a self-educated man, who has risen
by the exercise of an indomitable perseverance
to the position of one of the firBt statesmen iu
the country, and to an enviable rank in the
army. Ho commenced life as a newspaper
editor. Ho has studied law, but never practised
vtry extensively. He has been chosen to both
Houses of the Legislnture of Massachusetts and
officiated ns Speaker. Frox 1853 to 1857 he was
ft Representative in Co.igress. During his second

he served with distinction as a Major-General
of Volunteers, principally in the Department of
the fiulf. With his administration of the affair
of New Orleans, and the great Red River Expe
dition, tho world will always be familiar.
Sumner, Butler, and Josiah Qcincy need no
comment in this connection.
Emerson is a poet and scholar of great ability,
and as a master of intricate and retiued mental
philosophy glands unapproached and unap
proachable. He is a native ot Massachusetts,
and has devoted the greater portion of his lite
to the promulgation of his peculiar and orleiual
Ideas in public lectures. He will not probably
take a very prominent purt in the Convention,
but will give weight to its deliberations by his
presence.
Parsons is tbe celebrated Law Frofessur of
Harvard University. His father was Chief Jus
tice of the State, and he himself was born au'i
bred to the profession, in which he has few
superiors As a commentator and a lecturer, lie
Is alear, precise, and brilliant.
Holmes, the "Autocrat of the rireakf.ist
Table," Is ekilled in surgery, in poetry, and in
puns. Notfrithstandinf! his rreat popularity
as a writer, he bends himself to his daily
task in the lecture-rooms of the Harvard
Medical School.
Wbiting is one of the most accomplished
jurists in the United State, and is well known
by his legal pamph'-'ts published during the war.
Andrew is the popular ex-Governor who was
instrumental in givine Massachusetts such a
noble record duriug the war. He Is talked of
for United States Senator.
Boutwell, Wilson, Alley, Dawes, Hooper,
Baldwin, Washburn, are some of the ra.licai
Congressmen whose political course has beeu so
decidpd that they weie not requested to enter
the Wigwam Convention, arm-in-arm with Gov
ernor Oir, of South Carolina. Their records are
known to the people of the nation, and call lor
no comment in wis place.
Whittier, the "drab-."k'trted'' poft ot world
wide renown, though the tenets of his religious
faith taueht him to shun the din of battle, was
the leader of the hearts of the loyal millious
throughout the war. His lyric3 were inspired
by the same martial and liberty-loving spirit
that dictated the charmiug ballads of the middle
age?. Now, In the intere-ts of liberty and peace,
lie comes to Philadelphia to welcome the true
men of the South.
Lincoln is the ui bane and radical Mayor of
Boston. His name brings weight to the com
mittee of welcome.
Lowell lectures Harvard students on the
Belles-Lettres of Spain and Italy, and devotes
his spare hours to noting down in barbarously
spelled ihjmes the vagaries of Mr. Hosea Bige
low. He is not a politician, altlioueh he tsives
tone to the politics of the Atlantic Monthly und
Korltt American Review.
Train is not the Train, but he is a brother ot
the irrepressible George Francis, although of a
much clearer political complexion.
To follow the list above given from beginning
to end would fill all the space allotted to this
lengthy article. Suffice it to say, that never in
the history of the country was Massachusetts
or any other State represented by a delegation
of such sterling patriots and accomplished
scholars.
New Jersey.
Governor Ward has appointed a delegation
to the Convention, requesting them to "assure
that body that while the people of his State
desire an early adjustment of all causes of
difference, they are firm in the conviction that
treason should be made odious, and that the
work of reconstructing States or the Union can
not be safely left to traitors and their sympa
thizers." Since the appointment by the Governor, the
Republican State Central Committee has ap
pointed a delegation of one hundred from each
of the five Congressional District of the State.
