The Hlou Who Xow Oppose President Johnson Opposed President Lincoln. GREAT ENTHUSIASM, Ac., Ac. Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 17.—The Sol diers’ and Sailors’ Convention,. In re sponse to a call favorable to the policy of President Johnson and the action of the Philadelphia Convention, August the 14th, mot in this city to-day., A pavil lion one hundred feet in length, by sixty in breadth, had been erected in the Park for the use of the Convention, and at throe o’clock the delegations entered, preceded by a band of music, arid were seated, after which the crowd from the outside was admitted, and filled the tent to its utmost capacity. Previous to the organization quite a spirited scene was witnessed, the delega tions rising and cheering with all their might successively for the “ old flag” and Generals Custer, Rousseau, Wool and M’Clellau, the Constitution, the thirty six States and Andy Johnson, and, after a brief breathing spell, for Grant, Secre tary Seward, the American Army and General Steedmau, and Governor Bram lette, of Kentucky. As the cheering was called for and giv en, in each case, there was a scene of the wildest enthusiasm, the delegates and spectators rising and swinging their hats and shouting most vigorously. By previous arrangement Governor Bramlette nominated Major General John E. Wool, ns the oldest Major General in the United States, and probably in the world, as the temporary President. Gen. Wool was received with loud cheers, and addressed the Convention ns follows : Speech of General Wool. Gentlemen : A grateful heart thanks yon for your cheering welcome. A more flattering and cheering position could not have been assigned to me than the one just conferred as presiding officer, al though but temporarily, over this assem blage of patriots and heroes —the true de fenders of their country and the Union. Be assured it will ever bo remembered and appreciated as the most precious in cident of a long military career. The ob ject of this great Military Convention, if I understand it correctly, is to consider the principles demonstrated by the Na tional Union Convention at Philadelphia and the restoration policy of President Johnson. On these subjects I would simply remark, that the sooner Congress recognises the States declared by a raa . ority of its members to be out of the Union, as constituted parts of the Union, and admit their loyal representatives to seats in the halls of Cohgress, and permit them to participate in the national legis lation of the country, the sooner will be allayed the fears and apprehensions of the people of the dangers which again menace the peace of the country and the perpetuity of the Union. With the most bitter and vindictive feelings a war of words, for thirty years, was carried on between the Northern Radical Abolitionists and the slavehold ers of the Southern States. Everything was done and said to promote and keep alivethe controversy. It finally culmi nated in a rebellion, in the spring of 1861, which for atrocity, the sacrifice of lives, the expenditure of untold millions ot money, the loss of property, followed by pestilence, famine and desolation, has no parallel in the history of nations. This bloody and desolating war was brought to a close in the spring of 1865, when the Rebels, unable longer to carry on the war, surrendered with their arm ies to our gallant Generals, Grant, Sher man and others. The Rebel armies were permitted, under parole, to return to their homes, and there await the orders of the United States Government, the officers and soldiers of their armies pledging themselves to become true and faithful, supporters of the Constitution and the laws of the United States. Such were the terrible results of a four years’ war, caused by the institution of slavery A few days after the surrender of Lee and his army, President Lincoln was as sassinated. This atrocious crime, greatly mourned by the nation, placed Vice Presi dent Johnson in the Presidential chair. His elevation was hailed by acclamation throughout the land, and this too because of his love and devotion to his country, and his boldness while Senator of the United States in advocating the preserva tion of the Union in opposition to every other Southern Senator. Few men, North or South, weresubject ed to greater scrifices on account of pa trotism than Andrew Johnson ; and al though plundered of his property and driven from his homo, he returned again, and by his indomitable energy and per serverance, with other patriotics of his State, reclaimed Tennessee from treason and Rebellion. This bold and daring friend of the Union can be no traitor. Bu t, strange as it may appear he is denoun ced ns a traitor, and threatened by the radical members of the Republican party with impeachment. It may be asked, with propriety, what has President Johnson done that heshould be denounced as a traitor, and threatened with impeachment? Is it for anything more than for the exercise—for the most noble and generous efforts to conciliate and bring back into the folds of the Union, a brave people, and make the United States what they should be, a united, great people. It ought not to bo forgot ten that the cause,, slavery, which engen dered the Rebellion, has been removed, and three or four million of slaves have been declared free by an amendment of the Constitution. Those of the Southern States most in terested in the abolition of slavery, which deprived them of a large amount of what they called property, and which they had considered all important to their in terest and welfare, quietly submitted to the amendment; those who prepared the amendment omitted to guard against what would follow. When too late, it was discovered that the freeing of 4,000,- 000 of slaves would increase the Southern representation in Congress from twenty five to thirty representatives. This was to bo overcome (lest the Abolition radi cals should lose their control of the Gov ernment,) by an act of Congress and an other amendment to the Constitution. Falling in these efforts, all that bitter ness of feeling has been revived which existed for thirty years between the radi cals of the East and North and Southern slaveholders. Another civil war Is for shadowed unless the freedmen are placed on an equality with their previous mas ters. If this cannot be accomplished radi cal partisians, with a ranging thirst for blood and plunder, are again ready to in vade the Southern States, and lay waste the country, not already desolated, with the sword on the one hand, and the torch on the other. The revengeful partisans would leave their country a howling wil derness for the want of more victims to gratify an unsparing cruelty^ If they should succeed in inflicting on the country another war, it would be more terrible than the one from which we have just emerged. It would not bo confined to the Southern States, but would extend itself the length and breadth of the United States, and only close with the overthrow of the best Government devised, and the destruction of the finest country on the face of the globe. If such should be the fate of our great Republican Empire, the cause must not bo sought for In our military camps, but in the forum, thronged ’with inflammatory orators and aspiring demagogues, with souls dead to their country’s honor, and spoiled with corruption. I need not toll this great assemblage of officers, soldiers and sailors, most of whom hare been engaged in many perilous bat tles, defending their country their coun try’s honor, that war is a great evil, and the greatest that can befall any country or people. It has over been the curse of nations, and the cause of all the oppres sion imposed on the people of Europe. If you wouldguard your once free and happy and prosperous country from oppression and oppressive taxes, beware how you en courage war. Encourage not demagogues who, to gratify ambition or revenge, would drench their country in blood. The loss of liberty commences with op pression, and oppression follows war. — The United States, os conquerors, can af ford to be just and magnanimous; the brave are always merciful and generous. As the President said. 11 We have had war enough—let there bo pence.” Recollect, that the recent Rebellion, engendered by radical abolitionists and slaveholders, leaves the Northern States with more than a hundred thousand pensioners, be sides thousands and tens of thousands of widows and orphans, to weep over the graves of their only protectors and the defenders of the Union. Yet there are those among us who are not sufficiently satiated with blood and plunder, and cry for more war. In conclusion I would call upon you, officers, soldiers and sailors, to stand by the Union which, in a war of four years, when blood ilowed in torrents, by your gallantry and indomitable perseveP*; anco and courage, saved from ruin and destruction. I entreat you to spare no efforts to preserve this Republic intact — the last nope of the oppressed of the world. With confident expectation that you will, as heretofore, prove yourselves the saviors of your country, I again grate fully thank you for the honor you have this day conferred on me, and with the assurance that I ever will be with you in the defense of our glorious Union. The speech was greeted with applause throughout, and long continued cheering at its close. The passages declaring that Johnson can be no traitor; that the bravo arc al ways generous; and that, as the Presi dent says" We have had war enough,” were cheered with particular enthusi asm. Prayer was offered by Captain W. C. Turner, formerly of the Forty-ninth Ohio infantry. On motion of General Lewis, (Ky.) Capt. J. C. M. Furbish, of Blaine, and Blajor Duval English, of Kentucky, were elected Secretaries. On motion of Gen. Denver a Committee on Permanent Organization, consisting of one from each State, was appointed. General Custer announced that many of the delegations were not yet full; that members were now on their way who ought to have an opportunity to partici pate in the business of the permanent or ganization, and he, therefore, offered a resolution to adjourn until ten o’clock to morrow morning. Speech by Gen. Ewing. Subsequently this resolution was with drawn, and Mr. Campbell moved that General Thomas Ewing. Jr., of Kansas, now address the Convention. In response to calls from all sides, Gen eral Ewing appeared upon the stand, and was introduced by the President, saying: If you have any cheers to give, you can give them loud.” Cheers greeted this suggestion, and General Ewing (Ohio) proceeded to ad dress the Convention at great length on all the political topics of the day. He said they had assembled to consult ns to their duty and action in the Impending political conflict. We owed allegiance to no political party, but to the country and its laws. Before, the war many of them had been Republicans and many of them Democrats, with varying opinions on the question of slavery. That question was decided in the con test of 1860. At the close of the contest eleven States withdrew from the Union, and "the President called upon the peo ple to come forward and suppress the re volt. The call was promptly responded to by Democrats, Republicans and 801 l and Everett men, and after four years of war the Rebellion was suppressed. What bound us togetherin that conflict of arms? Hot hatred of slavery; for on that ques tion we differed. Not from love of war, for we all desired peace. Not hatred of the Southern people, for they wore our countrymen. No; it was the sentiment of nationali ty, the determination that the Union should be preserved and made perpetual. That was the one purpose of the war, known or recognized by the army and navy of the United States. That was the sentiment that raised all our armies and the soul of them all. Neither army nor navy nor people had any other purpose. Lincoln adhered throughout the war to that purpose. When it was seen that the Rebellion was staggering and about to fall, the rad icals began to consider how the contest would be wound up so as to perpetuate their power and promote th'eir sectional theories and interests. A month after the Amnesty Proclamation of Lincoln they presented their plan of, reconstruc tion through Henry Winter Davis, de claring the Southern States annihilated, and requiring the readmission of the South as territories. Lincoln refused to sign it, and they then opened their assaults on him the same as now upon Johnson, and for pre cisely the same reason. A Convention was called at Cleveland to denounce Lin coln’s policy. The Speaker here read the call for that Convention, which, he said, sounded like a blast from the bugle of Greeley or Forney. At the present day the same men are now threatening to impeach Johnson. The same men who stood by Lincoln then, stand by John son now, with the single exception of Hr. Lane, of Indiana. The Presidential canvass came on, and the • '.rty that had carried on the war mat in Convention at Baltimore, and renomi nated Lincoln by. acclamation. That Convention passed a resolution, drawn by Hon. H. J. Raymond, that the oqly conditions for the declaration of peace • and restoration were the surrender of the Rebel army and the return of the South ern people to their allegiance. The radl i cals nung on to the skirts of the war par- ty, and thereby secured their re-election; but, nothing daunted, they renewed their onslaught on the President. In the light of this recital is it Johnson or Congress that has turned traitor to the principles on which he and Lincoln and Congress were elected ? Congress still wishes to blow the em ber's of war, while Johnson desires peace. They will have no peace except on to ms which secure party and sectional domin ion, while Johnson desires Union on tho basis of the Constitution. Tire Secession ists drove tho States into rebellion by the dreadful cry of tho Abolitionists, while the radicals keep the Union separated by the still more dreaded cry of traitor. That cry had no terror to the soldier.— Their oath, taken on entering tho army, bound them to preserve the Union by ev ery means in their power. They owed allegiance rather to the Constitution than to philanthropic theorists, however right. To save that Constitution they wore ready to strike hands with the Democratic par ty, add labor with itso long os it remain ed true to the Union. The speaker discussed at length the question of the Constitutional Amend ment, holding that we will look in vain for the South to vote to degrade 200,000 of her ablest men, or to surrender one fourth of their representatives as a penal ty for refusing suffrage to the negroes. — The Louisiana Convention intended to make rulers of tho negroes and slaves of the whites. When Congress reassembles they will probably do it. The army with which Grant split the Confederacy in two would not be able to preserve order, and anarchy would ensue, probably another civil war, whoso, ashes would cover the foundations of tho Government. General Ewing elaborately argued the various constitutional questlonsat length, being greeted with great applause, and, at the close, loud cheers and the thinks of the Convention, which resolved to pub lish the speech in their proceedings. There was speaking during the even ing by various speakers. The Convention then adjourned, pur suant to the resolution offered by Gener al Custer. RADICALISM. A SHAMEFUL RECORD. Negro Suffrage and Hep Equality. tin voice of the late jiox- GICEL CONVENTION. The Members Endorse the Doctrine of Impartial Suffrage and Oppose a White Man’s Government. KEEP THE RECORD BE FORE THE PEOPLE. We present to our readers to-day the following record of the opinions upon ne gro suffrage and negro equality, uttered by the delegates to the late mongrel Con vention held in Phila.; together with the sentiments, expressed upon this sub ject by their friends and sympathisers.— All the extracts given are taken literally from the reports of the Convention and supplementary meetings, as furnished by the Radical press. Look at the Eocord 1 Eorenza Sherwood, of Texas. There are eight millions out of the twelve millions at the Soutli who are loyal, who have all the natural motives to be loyal, who have everthiug that they hold dear as an incentive to be loyal, that they shall not be shackled by prejudices against color and race. 11. C. Warmoutli, of Louisiana. Hg expressed the belief that the obj eet of the motion to adjourn sine die was to cut off the report of the Committee on the Non-reconstructed States, because the Border State men were afraid of the introduction of measures looking to im partial suffrage. He declared that the delegates from the non-reconstructed States would hear that report, if they heard it alone; and he was authorized to say that Impartial suffrage would bo a part of it. Anna Dickinson, of Pennsylvania. What was to be gained by deferring ac tion upon, negro suffrage? Nothing!— while everything was to be lost by a va cillating, conciliatory course. The peo ple even of Maryland and Kentucky would say that the Union Republican party was devoted to negro suffrage. Frederick Douglass, of Now York. A stranger would believe that you in tended to give equal and exact justice to men of my complexion. If you mean anything by equal justice or equal pro tection, you mean that Frederick Doug lass shall have an equal right with every other citizen to protect his liberty. [Ap plause.] You do mean it! [Applause.] — Why, then, in God’s name, do you not come out and express your convictions? [Great applause.] I have talked to men from the South, and they have said, ‘I It will come; don’t hasten it; let us get out of the well, and we will attend to you.”— [Laughter and groat applause.] Calvin k Robinson, or Florida. Resolved , That the Union men of the State of Florida are to-day in a condition of complete subjection to rebels, and our situation deplorable indeed; that negro suffrage would give us a controlling in fluence, &'o. Clinrlcs B. Moss, of Missouri. Resolved, That tho Committee on Res olutions bo instructed to prepare a report and resolution favoring the conferring of the right of suffrage upon all citizens, without regard to race or color. The speaker reviewed the policy of Mr. Johnson, as contrasted with that of Con gress, and advocated a bold, out-spoken course of action. Some of his friends, who were earnestly in favor of the suc cess of tho great principle of universal suffrage, had recommended that nothing should be said about it; butovas that the way to forward the cause of freedom? — What friends were to be made by silence and reserve on that vital question ? John Minor Bolts, of Virginia. I have less desire and less right to tram mel any State in establishing the suffrage it wants to establish. In the name of God, if Texas wants universal suffrage for the white man and the black, let them have it. [Applause.] If Louisiana wants equal suffrage, let them have it and es tablish it for themselves. Itcn. F. Butler, of Massachusetts Had the negro not been armed, the re sult would have been far different. Wo armed him with the musket when he was fit to use It; shall we not arm him with the ballot? There is a prejudice against the negro on the question of la bor. When the labor saving machinery was introduced into England, the labor ing classes rose and destroyed it, because they thought it would take away the work that brought them bread. Suppose we were only looking for expediency. The States must come back. We want n loy al constituency in those States. Where 1 will they come from? As a matter of ADVERTISING TERMS.

IV. T. Wiley, of West Virginia. Allow me to say that negro suffrage is no bug-bear to me'. In my place in thd Senate of the United States, and, ns I am well assured, in tho face of tho public sentiment in my, native State, X took ground in favor of negro suffrage. [Ap plause.] It is not from me, then, that its friends may expect any hostility or any disposition tp retard or embarrass them in their glorious work, or even in secu- ' ring Impartial suffrage in tho Southern States. In that I am with them heart and hand. J. W. llnnnicntt, of Virginia. As for negro suffrage, the Convention had said it must, shall and will come.— Ho came here from the white loyalists and black loyalists of Virginia, who had contributed the funds (SlflO) wherewith to send him here to represent them. He de clared himself the friend of tho white man as well os the black man,, and he would return whence he came believing that if as sassinated, the blood of the martyrs would be the seed of tho church. Ho urged his hearers to go homo after the adjournment, and advocate their cause elsewhere, and concluded by reannouheing himself tho advocate of equal rights. C. G. Baylor, of Georgia. Resolved, That we forgive and forget the wrong of secession, but do not propose to make it meritorious; wo propose to ignore It, but not to reward it; we proposo'to ac cept and reward men who stand upon their own merits, and not on the wrong of secession; we propose to admit Into this delegation those who, renewing in good faith the dogma of State authority, as op posed to national authority, are also wil ling to stand on the republican doctrine of impartial suffrage and equality before the law. The Louisiana and Alabama delegations made similar statements. GeneralHam llton, on behalf of the Texas delegation, announced that they endorsed the same sentiments. Mr. Lysander Hill stated that the majority of the Virginia delega gations also endorsed these sentiments.— A delegate from Florida said: “ TheFio rida delegation is right there.” P. It. Randolph, of Louisiana. Ho said ho was the only negro who was recognized on an equality with his col leagues in the Southern Convention. — When his colleagues came here they said they had a nigger among them, and they were going to keep him there. [Ap plause!] He represented 300,000 black men ofhis State, and he kept his place in the Convention ns proud ns the proudest of them. [Applause.] To-day Ethiopia, for the first time, practically stretches forth her hands, and she will keep them stretched forth until she can grasp the fruits of the tree of liberty. E. Ilicstaud, of Louisiana. If you expect any political control in the government of the Southern. States, you must insist that rule of justice shall be carried out, that he who shall have a voice in sustaining the rights of the gov ernment shall have a choice in the selec tion of those who are to govern him.— The question of universal suffrage will have to be discussed and Anally adopted: and I advise you in the coming contest not only to prepare your ballots, but bul lets, for the storm which is brewing. Parson Brownlow, of Tennessee. Some gentleman, not through any un kina feeling toward me, but through a mistaken appreciation of my motives, has said that wo wore afraid of the negro suf frage question and sought to dodge it.—- Why, I should feel disgraced now and forever if I felt doubtful on any subject of national concern. I never was claimed on both sides of any question, and neyer intend to be. While lam satisfied with what has been done, I am the advocate of negro suffrage and of impartial suffrage. [Greatapplause, including Three cheers for Brownlow.] I would sooner be elec ted to any office under heaven by loyal negroes than by disloyal white men.— [Applause.] I would sooner associate in private life with a loyal negro than a dis loyal white man. I would sooner be bur ied in a negro graveyard than a rebej graveyard. [Applause.] If I have after death to go either to hell or to Heaven, I shall prefer to go with loyal negroes to hell than with traitors to Heaven. Hugh 8. Bond, of Maryland. Resolved, That the Convention urge the loyal men of the North to support the Congress of the United States In demand ing of the Southern States the wise guar- . antees of the constitutional amendment# - passed by Congress, and call upon the patriotic men of the loyal States to use every, exertion to secure the ratification of the amendments by the States, as wo believe the justice we mete shall bo tho measures of our standard; that m ouf opinion there can be no permanent peace or security for loyal men of the South without a return of negro suffrage. D. It. Goodloc, of North Carolina. I am in favor of impartial suffrage, and have recently published a letter to that ef fect in the Raleigh Standard. A. J. Hamilton, of Texas., ' The fre'edmen are in our charge, and we must make them men, and give them all tho rights of other men. Calvin Pepper, of Virginia. He said that the fate of the loyal South depended upon universal suffrage. He denied the right of a State to disfranchise any portion of its citizens. The ballot was a sacred privilege of all men, higher than the power of Legislatures, of Presi dents, or of Congresses. He suggested that the colored men of Philadelphia should make a move in the coming elec tions. They had their fate in their own hands. Let them apply to pay their poll tax like all other citizens. * If refused the privilege, obtained connsel and take tho matter before the courts. He had the honorto belong to an organization pledged to test the matter in this way before the courts of several States, A decision in one State would settle the principle for ever. Why, he would ask, should a for eigner and a traitor have a voice in the government, and a native black loyalist none ? Why should the former vote on the fitness of the latter for the privileges they enjoy ? He urged the colored men of Philadelphia to carry out his sugges tion in reference to the elections; and ho was satisfied that the question would come to a final settlement before the courts, without tho action of the Legisla ture, of Congress, or of the President*- [Applause.] Rev. L, 1.. Pinkerton, of Kentucky. Whereas, The first business of the na tion Is to smash the coalition lately effec ted between Southern rebels and their Northern accomplices —a coalition headed by Andrew Johnson: (by a great calami ty President of the United States j) there fore, . ■ Resolved, That It would be eminently injudicious now to urge the question of universal suffrage on the attention of the nation. Ileury S. Lasar, of Missouri. Ho offered a series of resolutions, the purport of which was that there could ho no pcaee in the Southern States until the doctrine of equality was carried out prac tically. J. S. Fowler, of Tennessee. ;i Mr. Fowler, of Tennessee, expressed [CONCLUDED ON FOURTH PAGE.] JOB PRINTING.
