A *all has been issued at Washington forth° assembling of a National Johnson Convention, to be composed of at least two delegates from each Congressional district of all the States, two from each Territory, two from\ the District of Co- Jumble, sod four delegates at large. It is proposed that the Convention shall assem ble at Philadelphia on the /4th of August nett. Tho object of the Convention is to sustain the Administration, to affirm the indissolubility of the Union, the sniffed: 'icy of the Constitution and the laws passed in pursuance thereof, and the equality of all the States, including the right of representation. The call is signed by Messrs. A. W. Randall, J. R. Doolittle, 0. If. Browning, Edgar Cowan, Charles Knap nd Samuel Fowler, Executive Contn►i of the National Union Club and Is e domed by lions. James Dixon, T. A. Hendricks, ,Daniel S. Norton and J. W. Nesinith.— A Washington dispatch of Tuesday says ; The call for a National Convention to meet at Philadelphia on the 14th of Au gust, has attracted considerable attention here. The friends of the Administration are sanguine of having a full representa tion from all the States. it is understood that the movement yecelves the sanction of the President and a majority of his Cabinet. It was gotten up very quietly, and took the Radicals by surprise. il it. DUNCAN vs. eCON4I74IIIY. The Chambersbur Spirit says :—The law of Congress disfranchising alleged deserters and non-reporting drafted men baying been declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, we presume, as a matter of course, Mr. Me- Conaughy. the pretended Senator from this district, will reign his seat at once, so that his successor may be elected at the approaching fall election. We take it for granted that Mr. MeConaughy, being a lawyer and a, "loyal," law abiding citizen, will not persist in holding a seat in deli- Anne of the law, as exfaunded by the highest Judicial Tribunal In the State. The Supreme Court has decided that the seat rightfully belongs to Mr. Duncan. Dlr. MeConsughy held it during the last session of the Legislature in ignorance, 'we mast charitably suppose, of the law. This may excuse him for the past, but the law having now been defined by the only competent authority in the State, this excuse will no longer avail him. If ho continues to claim it he will bo acting the part of a usurper and transgressor of the law. Mr. Duncan does not claim the Peat by virtue of last fall's election, though he might properly do so. He and his friends simply demand that the question be referred back to the people for debision in October next. Will :qr. lleConauthy , haVe the manly- honor to resign and per mit the question to be so referred ? We oak the Gettysburg Star, his home organ, for an explanation as to the course he intends to pursue. In theenatne of a majority of the legal voters of this Sena toriaLdistrict, we make the inquiry. Berne recent decision of the Su preme Court of this State, against the acts , whiela were designed to authorize provost marshals and boards of election to disfranchise men for descrtibn from military service, and...those who failed to report when drafted, completely upsets the foundation upon which David Mc naughy, of tho Franklin district, holds a seat In the State Senate. We hope Mr. Duncan will now make anoth er effort to secure justice and his seat from the Disunion majority. Let it be done, and at least put the Disunion party again In conflict with the Constitution, the laws and the highest court. of the Commonwealth.—Parriot & Union. The Cbattilational Amendment.—lt is Bald that the Legislatures of all the "boy sd" States are, at the suggestion of the Governor of Pennsylvania, to be imme diately convened, so that they mly rati fy the. proposed amendment to the Con atitation bofore the adjournment of Con gress. Why this unnecessary haste? The sailing of the Legislature of this State in extra session, would be attended by an expense of not less than $9:10,000. But, it seems that the thing is to be rushed through., While the Ijadioais have the 'power, regardless of expense, or of the views et the people. If the matter w_as guttered to Ile over until after another election, the Legislatures of several of take State, that ore now under Radical - control, might be against them, and so defeat the proposed amendpent.

The Board had a envenomed people who invented them. meeting on the übjeet, and unanimously linseed a resolu ion allowing the deposit 1. 3 of such remains (they had no reason to suppose that there would be many) along the lower and More secluded line of the Cemetery; and r carefully framed restrict tions, and cha ing eight dollars in each case. In pure anee of this permission, Mr. Warren pal the body in the spot 4.1,c indicated, an subsequently another— this being the, entire extent of such re movali, and the only action had, or con templated, byhe Board, or any member of it. A sta ment to this e ff ect Dr. Sehmucker fe called upon to make in view of_the m representations in regard to it. He sai in conclusion, that the Board believe themselves as acting prop erly for the in erests of the Cemetery, t `. that if the Lo olders thought otherwise, t i t they had a c ar right to declare so, by resolution or herwise. Notwithsta ding this full and candid annottneerne of the FACTS, it was evi dent, from th feeling manifested by not a few othervr reasonable citizens, that their prefudi s hid been appealed to by a party two y ars ago indignantly kicked out of all con rol In the Cemetery, for not paying its de is when the necessary funds wereon hand and thus injuring its credit. It.waseviden too from the fact that there were persons resent who never attended a similar me tang before, and would not have been th re then but for some sweep ing deceit pr tieed upon them. It was found, like Ise, that not only had this party seduc one of the presses of the town into c rculating and giving what weight, it ha to validating these misrep resentations, but that Lotholders in the j country, an even iu other counties, had been secretly en and written to, and their , ears crammd with the most unscrupu lous fulseh in regard to the simple action of the ard detailed above. There'' c i s was no mi taking the indication that every mens of deception had been put in play. 0 e report stated that the Board i l intended to take in six hundred rebels! I at they - had contracted for that numb r ! still another that the thong ands on th field here were to go in, and be placed, i small lots, all over the ground! These emissaries, (four or five, and some , of them claiming to be truth-loving citi zens,) literally stopped at nothing, so bitter had become the wrath they were compell ed to nurse in secret for two years, the course of the Board during that period pot affoiding them the slightest pretext to hang an audible grumble on.' By suchmeans, secretly used with ap -3i proachabl people for several weeks, and abetted b a paper of the town in several articles, v tes were secured, by proxy and otherwise, which never could have been had by a fair statement of the facts in the case. This has been abundantly proven in the cooler moments which have oc curred since the election. The truth is now beginning to come to light, because people who were deceived as to the real design of the move against the old Board, are beginning to talk out, and lay bare the despidable falsehoods by which their deceptioniwas accomplished. As to the motive of the few who resort ed to this play upon the prejudices of their fellow citizens, not a word need be said to the publid h ere. It was certainly not what they pretended it to be—regard for the Cemetery. They knew that they could not raise' a solitary complaint as to its general managetrient that would be listen ed to by anybody in the community, and they saw that only by taking unfair ad vantage of the action of the Board in the instance mentioned, could they succeed in a single step towards its defeat. And even then they were afraid to trust their own names In a contest with the old Board. Not one of the four or five persons engaged in this under-handed business had a place on.„,the ticket. They knew that in a per sonal tilt, even intense prejudice against the rebels would not save them. Hence they put up, as clubs to be used by them over the heads of the old Board, such un assuming citizens as J. L. Schick, for President, and John Rupp, Samuel Herbst, islexander Cobean, Andrew Pol ley, Gedrge Spangler, George Little and Josiah Benner, for Managers, none of whom Were ever actively connected with the marlag,ement of the Cemetery, and we presume desired not to be. Certainly, few; ifany ofthem, were consulted beforehand, and whgst several were not at the meet ing at ail, we know that one of them voted I for the old Board, entirely approving of arnica COXPELEB will be furnished ' its se4n. for the campaign—from this time until' This hew ticket was put up for two rea- Sotdiere Mass Cianvenfion.—A Soldiers' i after the October eleotlon—at the low , sons.

He announces that the amendment was transmitted to the thirt y *Ls Shaer on the 16th, but wishes it to be distinctly understood that be does not commit himself to its approval. He thinks it improper that such a radical change should be made in the organic law, while eleven States are unrepresented in Congress and when the Legislatures of the other States were not elected with any reference to the question at issue. The document is considered as a pretty strung'protest against the action of Con gress, and as a matter of course excited the indignation of the Radicals. The following is the President's mes sage: To the Senate and Howe of Representa- tires: I submit to Congress a report of the Secretary of State, to whom was referred the concurrent resolution of the 13th inst., respecting a submission to the Legisla tures of the States of an additional article to the Constitution of the United States. It will be seen from this report that the Secretary of State had on the 16th inst., transmitted to the Governors'of the seve ral States certified copies of the joint res olution passed on the 13th inst., proposing an amendment totlleCoustitution. Even itt ordinary times any question of amend ing the Constitution must be justly re garded as of paramount importance. - This importance is at the present time enhanced by the feet that the joint reso lution was not submitted by the two Houses for the approval of the President, and that of the thirty-six States which constitute the Union, eleven ure excluded from representation in either House of Congress_ although with the single excep tion of Texas, t ley hat'e been entirely restored to all their functiens as States, in conformity with the organic -law of the land, and have appeared at the National Capitol by Senators and Representatives who have applied fur and have been refused admission to the vacant seats.- - Nor have the. sovereign people of the nation; been afforded au opportunity of expressing their views upon the import ant question which the amendment in volves, Grave doubts may therefore naturally and justly arise as to whether the action of Congress is in harmony with the sentiments of the people, and whether State Legislatures elected with out reference to such an issue should be called upon by Congress to dedide respec ting the ratification of the proposed amendment. Waiving the question as to the constitutional validity of theproceed ings of Congress upon the joint resolution proposing the amendment, or as to the merits of the article which it submits through the Executive Department to the Legislatures of the States, I deem it proper testate that the steps taken by the Secretary . of State, as detailed in the ac companying report s are to be considered as purely ministerial and in no sense whatever committing the Executive to an approval or a recommendation of the amendment to the State Legislatures or the people. On the co n trary,a proper appreciation of the letter and spirit of the Constitution, as well as of the interests of national or der, harmony and union;-and a due def erence for an enlightened public judg ment, may at this time well suggest a doubt whether any amendment to the Constitution ought to be proposed by Congress and pressed upon the Legisla tures of the several States for final decis ion until after the admission of such loyal Senators and Representatives of the now unrepresented States as have been or as may hereafter .bo chosen in conformity with the Constitution and Laws of the United States. AspitEw Joilz;soN. HOW THE MONEY GOES. • In the U. S. Senate, a few days agcr, Mr. Sherman arose in his place and sta ted that he had information frotri good authority that the appropriation of twelve millions of dollars, recently voted to the Freedmen's Bureau, would not be sufficient to pay the expenses of that interesting institution for the current year. He moved, therefore, that an ad ditional appropriation of six millions five hundred thousand dollars be added to the former appropriation. This motion was agreed to at once and with out debate This makes eighteen mil lions five hundred thousand dollars ap propriated to the support of the "pet lambs" for one year. This, too, is sepa rate and above the thousands of valua ble lands voted to the negroes some time ago. The extravagance of the present Rump Congress exceeds anything ever known in the history of any country. Delega tions of negroes can be seen at all hours of the day hovering about the two Houses, and their business is to solicit enormous appropriations for themselves and to demand "equality and the ballot." That their influence with the radicals is unbounded, is attested by the wonderful success they have met with. Their im pudent and extravagant demands are ac ceded to with a promptness that ,surpri ses even the negroes themselves. When we cbnsider that the people of this country are groaning under a taxa- , tion at once oppressive and almost be yond endurance—a taxation that impav erishes every man except the "loyal thieves" who made their millions by , permission of Lincoln—when we consid- I er these facts, we say, is it not time for I FAlll.—The Fair at Emmitsburg, last the people to stop short and ask them- , week, was excellently gotten up, and well selves the question—"how low. can we attended.

VISIT.—On Friday last, Senator Lane s of Indiana, of the Senate Military Committee, and Messrs. Schenck, or Ohio, Ancona, of Pa., Sit graves, of N. J., and Ketchum, of N. Y., of the House Military Committee, with Representatives Hubbard, of N. Y., Laf lin, of N.

After viewing several of the most prominent points, they reached Culp's Hill about noon. Here they were met by a number of ladies and gentlemen of town, and a speech of welcome was made by R. G. McCreary, Esq., Chief Burgess, which was respond ed to by Senator Lane and Gen. Schenck. The way was then led by the Burgess for a stroll towards Rock creek, and after a few minutes' walk the visiting party were most agreeably surprised to find them selves approaching a long table loaded down v with bread and butter, cold ham, pickles and hot coffee, with a bountiful supply of ice cream and cake at hand.— Upon invitation, all hands fell vigorously, to work, and a delightful repast was had. After this, and a cigar, the visiting gen tlemen ware called on for speeches, and Gen. Payne, Gen. Hayes, Gen. Boynton, Gen. Gamble, Col. McFarlane, and Messrs. Ancona, Sltgraves, Hubbard, Laflin, McPherson, Lane and Schenck responded, the affair concluding with the singing of the "Star Spangled Banner,' by a choir made 'up on the spot. The visitors expressed themselves delighted, with the "surinise,"-and freely acknowl edged themselves "captured." • COM3LEXCEUEXT.—The Annual Corn- , meneemernt at Mount St. Mary's College, near Emmitsburg, on Wednesday last, was one of the best attended in the histo ry of the Institution, and a decided suc cess in the excellence of the performances. That the music was fine, will be conceded when we mention that it was under the chargd of Prof. Dielman, whilst the speeches and poems delivered by the graduating class were of a high order of merit, and wop warm applause from the immense audience which packed the hall. AU, without excdption, were creditable to their authors and the institution. ''The Sleep Mary" was especially beautiful —one of the most enchanting poems we ever read or listened to. The following was the programme, in terspersed, of Course, with good music : Speech on the; Scholar's Pleasures, by Janice A. MeGreery, Belle villa, N.

The young ladies exhibited great proficiency, execu ting every piece of music with the taste and precision of older performers. We have heard nothing but admiration ex pressed in regard to these exercises. Oir.—We understand that Major Dyke has suspended boring for oil on the Har man farm, near Hampton, and will com mence to-day on the Wertz farm, near New Chester. This step has been ren dered necessary by a fissure in the rock, at a depth of about one hundred feet, which carried the auger in a slanting direction. !AWING mowing match came off at Hanover on Thursday week. Six different machines entered the con test, and the Spectator says all performed admirably.

It is interesting to note the progress of what. the radical papers term "rank Cop ' ioierheadism" within the last year. An drew Johnson, according to these papers, has become a Copperhead; Rev. Dr. Breckinridge, President of the last Re publican National Convention, has be come a Copperhead; Edward Bates, At torney General in Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet, has become a Copperhead; Montgomery Blair, another member of Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet, has become a Copperhead ; and ' so through a long list of the most distin guished members of that party during the war, Including both Statesmen and sol diers.
