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,

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.

/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.:'.
