Tbe Chairman of Committee on Resolu
tions, composed of A. U Ficke, Wm Kutr,
Daniel lleim, W. P. Withington and Jooas
Wolf, reported the following us expressive of
the senile of tbe Convention :
Wukrkas, A desperate effort it being
made by rebels and traitors to divide tbe
Union and overthrow tbe free government
established by the blood of our forefathers ;
and the Natinuul Capital is threatened by a
powerful army of insurgeuta whose avowed
object is firal to capture the teat of the
national government, and then to invade tbe
loyal Stales ;
Akd Wukhkal the titration of the Union,
and tbe maiutenunce of tbe government in
its constitutional powers and functions
require that tbe loyal tit lens should b oui
ted, vigilant and determine I in their oppusi-
lion to rebellion, and Ik-it support of those
bo have been legally elected to adiniuiaur
the govtromtat ;
And Wbrrkas, we believe, tbet If tbe
people falter In supporting tbe constitutional
authorities of the country, and allow them:
Selves Io be divided into confl, cling faction
and parties at thit honr.i.f danger, we will be
destroyed at a natKin, witb tbe Uoino divi
ded into petty and hostile confederacies,
between which cootinoal war will eiist, with
immense and endless expense of blood and
treasure Therefore, be it
Resolved, That for tbe maintenance of the
(Juiun. and the SHpporl of the government,
we will no'te ourselves as a band of brothers,
laying aside, for the present, all parly dia
tiiidions and differences, having no other
object than tbe enforcement of the Constitu
tion and laws, and the suppression of that
wicked rebellion wbicb, if it succeeds, will
destroy tbe best government ever formed,
and reduce thit once happy Union to a col
lection of contending petty slates, like those
ol Mexico and Booth America, whose people
will be the victims of endless war and taxa
tion, and the slaves of military despots.
Rnolved, That we will stand by our con.
slituliooal government and our legally elect
ed President, io Ibis conflict with treason
and rebellion, to tbe last extremity and at all
bazzards.
Resolved, That the spediest and cheapest
way to put an end to the war, to repress this
causeless rebellion, tud to restore the Union,
is fur the government to exert its fullest
power, and lor tbe people to stand united in
support of the government, contributing witb
cheerfulness and Ceal the Decessary aid io
men and money.
Restlvtd, That we fully agree with tbe
words of that eminent patriot and Democrat
ic Statesman, Joseph Holt, of Kentucky,
who said in his speech to the people at New
York, on Tuesday, the 3d inst j "What we
need is patriotism, which rises fully to the
comprehension of tbe actual and awful perils
in which our institutions ere placed, and
which is eager to devote every power of body
and mind and fortune to their deliverance a
patriotism wbicb, obliterating all party lines
and entombing all patty issues says to
the President ol the United States, "Here
are our lives and onr estates ; use them
freely, use them boldly, bnl use them success
fully j for, looking oo the graves of our
fathers and oo the cradles of our children
we have sworn that though ell thirgs else
shall parish, Ibis country and Government
shall live."
Resolved, That we deprecate and condemn
all attempts to divide the loyal people into
contending politicul parties and factions,
when a desperate enemy is arrayed to destroy
our free institutions, believing that if we are
divided we fall, as ex pre wed by Judge Don
ulas in bis speech at Chicago, on the first or
May last, when he said that "lbs rebels hoped
that in the Northern States party questions
would bring civil war, between Democrats
and Republicans, when tbe South would step
in with ber cohorts, aid one party to conquer
the other, and tbeo make easy prey of tbe
victors."
Resulved, That to prevent the disastrous
state of affairs thus pictured by the lamented
Douglas, and to keep from our own midst the
horrors of civil war, it is absolutely necessary
for 08 to allay inflammable party spirit,
eradicate for tbe time being political distinc
tions, and unite on one great issoe, tbe sup
port of the goverouient aud tbe suppression
of rebellion.
Resolved, That we agree with the words
of the pa'riot Lewis' Cass, who says: -'He
who is not for the country is against ber.
There is no neutral position to be occupied.
It is the duty of all zealously to support the
Governments in all its efforts to bring this
unhappy civil war to a conclusion." And
with the words of Daniel S. Dickinson in bis
Tunkbannock speech where be sayB : "It will
be time euough to struggle over who shall
administer the Government when we are
sum wo have one to administer. He who it
not for it is against it. 1 bave determined to
fight this battle out, but oo oo political
grounds.
Rmnlved, That while we desire that tbe
loyal people of tbe South should bave every
aid and encouragement possible, we can in
no way consent to a compromise with armed
rebels, believing with Daniel S. DickiDsnn,
who said io bis Tuokhaonock speech, that
"there is no peace until yon can put down
rebellion by force of arms."
Resolved. That we endorse the 'arts of
President Lincolo io his efforts to put down
tbe rebellion, believing thut they were tbe
best tbat could be done io his responsible
position, and io the dangerous emergency
wbicb be was called npoo to meet, aod io
this connection we need but use tbe words of
Daniel S. Dickinson, who said at Tirakbau
nock "I kuow not whether Mr. Lincolo has
observed the Constitution ; indeed, for all the
purposes ol resisting the rebellion, 1 care not.
It is due to him to say, however, tbat he bus
seemed to be in good faith attempting to po
down tbe rebellioo. He has not done all
tbines as 1 would have done them, because 1
would bave multiplied his men by about four
and when he bas struck one blow I would
bave struck a dozeu."
Resolved, Thut in regard to the suspension
or the writ of hubeus corpus, tbe Prtsidtol
acted in conformity witb the luterest of the
Constitution, which suys : "The privilege of a
writ ol habeas Carpus shall out be snspeuded,
unless wbeu in Canes of rebellion und invasion,
the public safety may require it." And we
endorse the lauuage of Hon. Daniel S. Dick
inson in this regard, who suys : "If I were in
command, aud bad good reason to believe that
1 bad possession ol a traitor, 1 would suspeud
tbe writ, aud the individual too."
Resolved, Tbat we can bave no political fel
lowsbip with those who, by tbeir sympathy
with rebels, tend to prolong tbe war, aud in
crease tbe bloodshed aod expense, aud that we
believe that a division among tbe loyal people
of the North will encourage tbe rebels to coo
tinue the struggle, which will necessarily in
crease tbe taxatioo aod extend the period of
blonusDeo prostration ol business. 1 hat our
duty us patriots, as well aa our interest as
citizens, urge us to conduct this war with such
vigor, and to bring it to sucb o conclusion,
that we will not be compelled to assist io pay
ing the bonds of tbe so called Confederate
Stales, but will force the rebels who caused
the war to bear the priucipal burden of tbe
expense. 1 be rebels of the Suutb coin,
meuced this civil war without cause, and jus.
lice requires tbat the expense of suppressing
the rebellioo should be borue bv those who
precipitated il upon us.
Resolved, Tbat secession is revolution, and
tbul the alleged right of any State or Slates
to withdraw at pleasure from the Unioo, would
lead to a condition of endless anarchy aod civil
war.
Resolved, Tbat all our sympathies are witb
our brave soldiers now in arms in defense of
tbe Uuioo and the Government ; and the fact
of Democrats, Republicans aud Americans
slandiug shoulder to shoulder io tbe ranks
teaches us at home to present the same exam
pie of unity and fraternity. We caouol ex
press the sentiments of ibis Convention belter
than by adopting tbe letter of that uob e sol
dier, Geo. Benjamin F. Butler, to his political
mends in Massacousetts, published in tbe
Lowell Advertiser, io wbicb be Bays: "As 1
bave staled to vou aod as 1 have publicly
repealed, wbeo J left borne 1 left all politics,
io a party sense of tbe term, bebiud me, aod 1
now know do politics 10 aoy sense, suve at
represented by tht question : How best to
preserve tbe Uniun. acd red or a the country
toils integrity? Peace it desiruble to all,
and to none more to than to Ibe soldier who
has left hit friends and bit home to do bit
duty to bit country. But, however desirable,
it it not to be purchased upon aoy terms, tave
the recnguitioo ol tha aulhonty of Ibe Federal
UovernuiMiit over ey loch ol territory which
ever belonged to it. Upim oocooditiou what
ever, other than this, would 1 consent to
peace. A peace iuvoivinv the disintegration
of ibe Uuioo, or until the tupreoiary of lie
Govercmeot it forttm established, would t
I f ply a declaration of perpetual War of ten
linn-. Ware tbe floalhere Confederacy to day
aeknowledfr.ee1 io the fulloesaof goof fWtth,two
ti.oniun. would not elapse be-fore causes of war
would arise, sufficient not ooly to justify, but to
demand renewal of the cooflict. No two
mnnlhs bave passed io the last ten years, et
least, io wbicb outrage have not been com
muted opno Northern men in the South,
which, bad they been perpetrated by a foreign
nation, would bave demanded a redrest of
grievances, under a pain of tbe suspension of
diplomatio relations. On the matter of the
nominations I cannot consent that my name
shall be used by any party. . While oo tome
tbiogs, as you are aware, 1 do not agree with
the principles npoo which both tbe State aod
National Administrations wete Inaugurated,
yet we are a long way past that. Tbe Repub
lican party, having wou a political victory,
both in the State and in the oation, it enti
tled to the endeavor of every man to give it a
fair trial in tbe administration of the govern
ment. Lot it be understood that without
distinctiou of party and without raising parly
issues, all men who love the, Union are deter
mined to stand by it and the country until
thit rebellioo shall be quelled, aod then we
may hereafter divide at we please npoo the
minor difference or administration of Govern
ment." Resolved, Tbat we do not regard thit war
at one of subjugation, and in this we are sus
tained by tbe declaration of Congress, at its
late special session, as offered by Mr. Critten
den, and passed almost unanimously, which
said : "That tbe present deplorable civil war
has beeo forced upoo the country by tbe die
unionists of the Southern States, now in arms
against the Constitutional Government, nnd
in arms around tbe capital ; that io this Na
tional emergency, Congress, banishing all
feeling of mere passion or resentment, will
recollect only its duty to the whole conutry j
that this tear is not waged vpon their part in
any spirit of oppression, or for any purpose of
conquest or subjugation, or purpose of over
throwing or intrrfering u ith the rightt or estab
lished institutions vf those States, but to d-J'end
and maintain the supremacy of the ( 'onstitutinn,
and to reserve the Union, with all the dignity,
equality, and rights of the several States vnim
paired; and that as soon as these ends are ac
complished the tear ought to cease."
Uu motion of Wm. Kulz, the following waa
ouanimoiiBly added to the olber r solutions:
Resolved, Tbat tbe war ebould be proseco
ted with all tbe energy and power possessed
by tbe Government, until disunion is comnlee
ly crushed out ; and tbat whilst we are willing
to give to every portion or our beloved conn
try all their just and Constitutional rights, we
we will oppose aoy and all compromises with
armed traitors; nevertheless, when tbe au
thority of the Federal Government shall have
been re-established, and peaceful obedience Io
the laws prevails, we shall be ready toco-ope.
rate and cooler with all loyal citizens through
out the Union, io Congress or Convention, for
the consideration of all supposed grievances,
the redress of all wrongs, il any exist, and the
protection of every right, yielding ourselves,
and expecting others to yield, to the will of
the whole people, as constitutionally express

On motion, the resolutions were unanimous
