THE NiBBT PAPIBS. His Professional Visit to the Cleveland Convention. [From the Toledo BlsfleJ Post-Obfis, Con federate X Roads, /-which is in the Stait nv Kentucky,) Sept. 20 1866 —I waz sent for toco toe to Washing ton from my comfortable quarters at the -post Offis. to attend the convenshua of such sailors and 1 soldiers uv the United States ez hleeve in a Union of 36 States,.jmd who havesworn allegiance to a flag with 36 stars, onto Cleveland. My esteemed and Ufe and co-laborer, the Rev. Henry wJrt Beecherl wuz to hev been the chaplin If the Snsimn, but he failed us, and it wnzdMided in a Cabinet meeting that I h*ehis Place. I didn’tseetheneces- uv at every little convenshun of our party and so stated, eSncing at a list of delegates, “efyou hav fny agomzin petitions, any prayers of ex tra fervency, offer them up for these fel fefs Ef there is any efflcacjr in prayer, it’s my honest, unbiassed opinion that there never'was in the history of the world, nor never will be agin, such a magnificent chance to make it manifest. Try yourself narticularly on Custer—tho’ after all,” com tinvood he, in a rriusin, abstracted sort uv a ■way wich he’s fallen into lately, feller is such a trifling being tHat he reely kin. hardly be held ’sponsible for what hes doin', and the balanceuVem, good Heavens, thev’rmostlydruv toit by hunger”—and, the’Seoretary maundered on suthin about ”60 days” and “90 days,” payin no more attention to therest uv us than ez ef we wazn’t there at all. , ’ _ ■ • So receivia tranapoctasaim ana samshent money from the secret service fund for ex penses, I departed for Cleveland, and after a teius trip thro’ an Ablisha country I ar rived there. ’My thots were gloomy-beyond expression, I had recently . gone through - this same country as chaplin to the Presi dential tour, and every stashun had its pe culiar unpleasant remembrances. Here wuz where the cheers for Grant were voci ferous, with nary a snort for His Eggslency __there wuz where the peasantry lafl in Jus face when he went thru with the regular ritooel uv presentin the Cohsti,tooshun and the'flag with 36 stars onto it, to a district as sessor—there wuz—but why recount my sufferins? Why harrow up the public bosom or lacerate the public mind ? Suffice to say I endoored it—sufficß to say thatl, had strength to ride up Bank street in Cleveland, the- scene uv most awful insult the Eggsecutive ever received. ... _ - ahfreyenin I arrived the delegates, sich ez wuz bn hand, held a informal meetin to arrange matters so ez they would work smooth when the crowd finally got together. General Wool wuz ez gay ana frisky ez thonghhe reely belonged to the last genera shun; there wnz Custer uv Michigan, with his hair freshly oiled and curled, and bnz zin about ez’though he had cheated hisself into the beleef that he reely amounted to suthitoand there wuz seventy-eight other men who had distinguished theirselves in the late war, but who had never got their deserts, ceptin by brevet, owin to the fact that the Admimstrashun wuz Ablishun, which they wuznt. They were, in apeku niary pint uv view, suthin the worse for wear, tho’ why that should have been the case, I ooodent see, (they hevin bin, to an ■niarmin extent, quartermasters' and coin- - missarfes and in the recrootin service), till I notist the pervalin color uv their noses, and heerd one uv them ask his neighbor ef Cleve land wuz blest with a faro hank. Then I •knowed all about it. ~.. There was another pekooliarity abont .it wich for a , time amoozed me. Item ez wuz. present wuz divided into 2 classes— those ezihed bin recently appointed to po- Biahens and them ez expected to:b» shortly. I nbtist oh' the countenances: uv the first class a look uv relief, sioh-ez I hev seen in factories' Saturday night, after the hands wnz paid off for a hard week’s work, and on the other class the most wolfish, hungry, fierce expression I hev ever witnessed, likewise,'l notist that the latter set uv patriots talked more hefty uv the neces sity uv sustainin the policy uv our firm and noble President, and damned the Ablish nnists With more emphasis and fervency than the others. One enthoosiastic individual, who had been quartermaster two years, and bed bin allowed to resign “jest after the battle, •mother,” wich, hevin his-papers all de stroyed, made settlin with the Government a easy matter wuz so feroshus that I felt called upon to check, him. “Gently, my friend,” sed T, . “gently! I hey bin thro’ this thing—l hev my commission. It broke but on me jest ez it hez on yon, hut you won’t git your Assessorship a minit; sooner for it.” \ • “It ain’t a Assessorship I want,” sez he, ‘•lhev devoted myselfto the task uv bindin up the wounds uv my , beloved country.” “Did you stop anybody very much 'from inflictin .titem sed wounds?” murmured I. “Ah ef I accept the'Post Offis in toy na tive village which I hev been aolissited so strongly to take that I hev bin solissited so Ido it only that I may devote my few re mainin energies wholly to the great cause by 'restorin the 36 States to their normal posishens onto the flag .with the 36 stars onto it, in spite of the Judislskariots wich, ef I am whom , wat is the Savior and where , is-r—” Perseevin that the Unfortunate man had got into the middle uv a quotashenfrom a speebh uv opr noble • and Patriotic, Presi dent, and knowitf bis intellek wuzn’t hefty enough to git it off jist as it was originally delivered, I took him by the throat and shet off the flood nv his elokence. “Be quiet, yoo idiot,” remarked I sooth ingly to him, “Ton’ll git your appointment, becoz for the first time to the history uv ibis or any other Repnbjic,. there’s.a market for jist sich men as joo, : bnt all: this blather won’t fetch it a mirut sooner.” “God Eord!” thot I, ez I turned away, “wat a President A. J. is, to hev to buy Up tick cattle! - Wat a Postmaster he, must be whose gineral cusaedness tums my stim miek!” - ■ i, It wuz deemed necessary- to see, uv what ; we wuz composed, whereupon Kernel-K , who is now Collector nv Revenue in lilinoy, naked ef- there wnz any man in the room who had been a prizner doorin the late fra tricidal struggle. A gentleman uv perhaps thirty aroze and said he wuz. He.ned- bin taken three times, and wnz altogether. 18 toonthß in doorance vile, in three different, prizns. Cluster fell on his neck and asked him, agitatedly, ef he wnz shoor—quite, shoor, after sufferin all that, that he supported the policy of the President? Are yoo quite shoor ?—quite shoor?” . . ' - “I am,” returned the phenomenon, “ I stand by. Andrew Johnson and his policy, and I don’t want no office!” “Hev you got won?” shouted they all in koras. . :.-I - : “Nary!” sed he; “with me it is a matter ©f principle.” ■ ; • , - “Wat prizns wuz yoo incarcerated ■ in?/ ©ehed I, lookin at, him with wonder. Fust at Camp Morton, then at Camp Bouglas, and finally at Jbhnßon’s Island !!*, Cp®terdrppt him, and the rest remarked thax while they hed. a very helthy opinion uv him,theyguesBed he betternot menshen, considerhisself a, delegate.; Ezginrous foes they, loved him rather betr/ ter.than ; abrotiier i; yet, as the call didn’t tho’ jthere-wu? a delight fulbnepesa between;; em, yet,, ef ’twnz all theeftHto;'he?.hea better notannounce his self.,. .He wnz from; Kentucky, 1 afterward ascertained, .c : \ The next 'mornin, suthin over two Jhun vx fired more arriv, and the delegashens bein- V fill ip it wuz decided to go on with the show. A bie tent hed bin brought on from Boston, to accommodate j the expected crowd, and ouite an animated discussion arose ez to wich corner uv it the convenshun wuz to okepv; This settled, the bizms wuzbegan. General Wool wnz made temporary chair man, to which honor he responded me elo quent extemporaneous speech, which he read from manuscript, and we adjourned f °Thedinner hour wuz spent in caucussin j privately in one uv the parlers uv the hotel. The Chairman ashed who. shoold make speeches after [dinner, wen every , man uv. em pulled from his right side coatpooket a 101 l uv manuscript and sed he hed aottea down a few ijees which he hed conclooded to present extemporaneously to the Conven shun. That Babel over, the Chairman sed he persoomed some one shoold be selected to prepare a address, whereupon every dele gatei rose and pulleds*, roll uv manuscript from hid left side coat pocket, and sed he hed dotted down a few ijees on the situation which he proposed to present,’ et settry. This occasioned;another shindy, wen the chairman remarked “resolushens,” when every delegate rose, pnlled a roll nv manu script from his righthreast coat pocket, and sed he hed jotted down a few jtees wich, eto. ' i X stood it until some ‘ one mentioned me ek Chaplain til. the expedition West, when the pressure becum unendurable. jThey. sposed I wnz keeper uv the ; President s conscience, and I had not a mimt’s peace after that In vain I asljoored em that there being no consciences. about_ the White House, no one could hold sion a offis—in vain I ashoored em that I hod no influence with his majesty,., Two-thlrdhuv em pulled applicashens for, places they wanted from the left breast coat jpooket, and insisted on my taking em and seem that they wnz appinted. I. told em that Icooddo nuthin for-em, buttheylaftme to skorn. “Yon are jist the style uv man,” they say, “who hez inflooence with his Eegsienoy, and yon must do it.” Hemmed in! there wnz but one way uv escape, and that way I took. Seezin a carpet sack which, by the way, belonged to a delegate, (I took it too give myself the look uv a traveler), I rushed to the depot, and started home, entirely satisfied that ef Cleveland may be taken as a sample, the leas His Maiestv depends-on Boljers, the better. . Petroeeum Y. Nasby, P. M. (wich is Postmaster,) (and likewise late chaplin to the expedi -8h p D L i opened the carpet Back on the train spectin to find a clean shirt in it, at least. It contained to my disgust an ad dress to be read before the Cleveland Con vention, a set nv resolushuns, a speech and a petition uv the proprietor thereof for a cotlectorship, signed by eight hundred names, and a eopv nv the Indiana State Directory for 1564.' The names wnz In one hand writin, and wuz arranged alphabeti cally. - • /Universal Peace Society. - This society re-assembled, yesterday af ternoon, at the Franklin Institute, Presi dent Love in the chair. Mr. L. K. Joselyn, of Providence, offered an amendment to the Constitution, which, after explanations by the President and Dr. Child, was adopted by the meeting. ; A letter was read from Mr. Gerritt Smith, ih which he expressed much interest in the movement, but confessed himself still some what undecided in regard to the absolute sacredness of human life under all drcum- . Mr. Jonathan ■ Magill, of Pennsylvania, said that although Mr. Smith still needs light on thisßubject,' it is no cause of dis I couragement, and Gerritt Smith will some time be reached by the light he heedß. A series of resolutions favoring peace, adopted at the meeting in Boston, were taken up seDarately,. and thoroughly dis cussed by George W. Taylor, Jonathan Ma gill, Henry T. Child, Lucretia Mott, Rachel Moore: Olivia F. Stephens. L. K. Joselyn, and E, B; Chase; after which they were adopted. " .. ' Adjourned until evening. The Society reassembled last evemng at 8 o'clock, with President Love in the chair. Mr. Joslyn reported that 'the Executive Committee recommend that when this So ciety adjourns, it adjourn to meet in the City of New York, Anniversary week,May next, 1867. Day and place to be hereafter designated. That we recommend in the interview to the State societies,officers, Exe- j cntive Committee, and other members of this society, active labor for the cause by correspondence with all known friends in this and other countries; by holding /public meetings for lectures and discussions in different localities; by a judicious distribu tion of the society’s publications, and by securing to the cause a hearing through the public journals of the country. The report was accepted and adopted, A letter was read from Mr. John West; sympathizing with the cause of the movement. Dr. Child offered the following resolution: “That we recommend to the friends of peace everywhere to avail themselves of the pub lic press for the dissemination of our prin ciples. That they endeavor to procure the insertion of articles iff the papers, and that a: committee of five be appointed to ascer tain what papers would be willing to aid us in our movement.” Dr. Child delivered an address on peace, after which, the resolution was adopted. The President also spoke at great length oh the same Subject, after which the' meet ing adjourned. i William iE. Simms, a captain in the Mex icanand a colonel in the late war, and ah M. C. in the United States and Confederate Congress, was lately married in Paris, Ken tucky, to Miss Lucy Blythe, an heiress of beauty, and intelligence. Colonel Simms offered the famous ‘‘last ditch” resolution* in : the : Confederate: Senate, but it seems he very sensibly concluded to live and 'marry.' ; A correspondence has taken place between W. E. Gaines, of the Norfolk (Va.) Times, and John B. Hathaway, of the Norfolk Hay Boo*,with regard to some “point of honor,” and Mr. Gaines closed his last note with— “lf you will not answer, Captain Small is required.to ask you to announce a friend; and it will be settled in a gentlemanly man hen. Mr. Hathaway preferred not to settle [ it in the gentlemanly manner referred to, and was so unchivalric- as to procure the ar rest df Mr. Caines and his second.' He is evidently therefore h man of courage, the ■ “code” ’to -the contrary' notwithstanding, and he hardly needed the defence which he Win-boa for himself in himself in his paper,- as follows; “I took that course, not through fear, bnt becanse I have a v@ry large family dependent on me foff support, and in addi tion, 1 do not recognize dueling as -a fit or fair means of settflng. a. question, of feet. Mr. Gaines has no incumbrances that I am; .aware of, and in declining to meet him on .the so-called ‘field of honor,’ I.havd the ap proval of my own conscience and common . sense.” . ~-V . ; u:' .?■. r.:'. : ' The Newßedford (Mass.)
