THE NEW YORK CONVENTION. j
The proceedings of tho Democratic Con
vention at New York were anything but har
monious. But the remit is nothing more
than any rcaeonablo being could expect
from such a heterogenous mass, with princi
ples, if principles they can bo called, which
ore as antagonistic and different as light
and darkness. It was, in fact, an assemblage
of rebels and rebel sympathizers from the
South, without a single clement of tho
Union party from that section. From the
North and East tho delegates were mostly
conservatives and rebel sympathizers under
the control of such men as Belmont, tho
Foreign Jew Banker of New York, con
nected with tho Rothschilds of Europe, and
othor moneyed men of the East. The West
cm delegates, on the other hand, generally
favored Pendleton, who was nothing more
than an unarmed rebel during the war, but
more especially on account of his repudia
tion doctrines, which accounts also for his
strength in the South.
The action of the Convention shows that
the so-called Democracy are again, as they
always have been, under tho dominion of
Southern leaders and Southern influence. Not
one word have they in their platform in favor
of the Union men of tho South, or one word
of censure denouncing the wicked acts of
the rebellion. With such rebel Generals
in the Convention as Wade Hampton, of
South Carolina, Buckner, of Kentucky, and
Forrest, the murderer of unarmed soldiers
at Fort Pillow, how could they say blv
thing unpleasant against rebels, whom
they politely complimented as "a most gal
lant and determined foe."
The Soldiers' Convention at New York
was a mero farce, and. when the proposition
was raado to abandon their own nominee
and adopt that of the other Convention, it
was received with hisses and groans by the
true soldierfrof that body, but nevertheless
was carried by the politicians.
The South, at firBt united their strength
on Gen. LTancock, who has not much of
a political record to contend against, ex
cept his complicity with what his present
friends formerly designated as tho "murder
of Mrs. Surratt," and we thought he would
bo, finally, nominated, Bolely on tho
strength of his military reputation. No
groater compliment could have been paid to
Gen. Grant. The Democracy tried hard to
get him as their candidate, but not succeed
ing, they wero willing to take one of his
Lieutenants. The soldiers understand this
kind of tactics, and will fight it out under
a very difforcnt line.
r. S. Sinco the above was written, w
learn by telegraph that Horatio Seymour,
ts Governor of New York, received tho
nomination. This news foil like a thunder
clap on the Democracy of this town. . They
were exultant on Wednesday evening, and
rejoicing in tho almost certain hopo of
nominating Gen. Hancock. Seymour was
the President of tho Convention, and tic
clincd only on Tuesday last, for tho second
time, being a candidate, slating that his in
clination as well as his honor forbade it.
Gov. Seymour is as thoroughly Southern In
feeling and sentiment as Toombs or Wade
Hampton, and as tho rebel, influence con
trolled the Convention, it was natural that
they should select a Northern man with
Southern proclivities. The contest now is
Grant and his legions against the rebels, by
"ballot," and he will be quite as successful
as when the contest was decided by '(bullet."
AMNESTY.-Presidcnt Johnson has at length
dons what has long been expected of him.
He has issued a proclamation of amnesty,
which is intended to embrace within its
provisions tho great mass of the insur
gents who so long contended in arms to
sunder the republic, that a rival power,
based on slavery, might be erected in the
south. The President say. civil war has
oiig ceased altogether, with an acknow
ledgment hy all the States of the supremacy
of t jo Federal Constitution and or the gov
ernment thereunder, ant! that there no longer
exists any reasonable ground to apprehend
a renewal of the said civil war. .
This proclamation was the last "card" of
Audrew Johnson in the game for the Presi
dency. If a wholesale pardon of everybody
engaged in rebellion, except "such persons
."as may be under presentment r Indictim tit
'ia any fonrt of the United States, having
"competent jurisdiction upon pliargo of
"treason or other felony," did not entitle him
to the nomination of the New-York Conve.
tion, then fiere is no hope that anything
else can save him from the contempt and
oblivion be so richly deserves. 'i
TnADDEt-s Stevens has submitted in
Congress four more articles of laipeachmeut,
against the President. He does not expect
action on them, but he files then, as a mat
ter of record and history, sustained by an
able speech. Mr. Williams, of Pittsburg,
has aUo submitted several articles. '
JOHN B. PACKER, EBQ.
The following article, from the IUrrisburg
Stat Guard, serves to show the high esti
mation in which Mr. Packer is held ' in
Dauphin county. It is perhaps not saying
too much, when we assert, that Dauphin
and Northumberland counties aro -almost
unanimously in favor of Mr. Packer's nomi
nation. These two counties contain about
two-thirds of the voters in the district, al
though they will have only two fifths of the
delegates to be elected, to mako the nomi
nation. Union county has elected delegates
favorable to Mr. Miller. Juniata in favor of
Mr. Tatterson. Snyder, tho remaining conn
ty, has not yet elected delegates, but from
all we can learn, it is evident, that a large
majority of ths Republicans in that county
favor Mr. Packer's nomination. The con
tost is, in fact, betweeu Messrs. Packor,
Blillcr and Patterson. Can any Republican,
who looks only for the success of the princi
ples of the party, and the good of the coun
try, doubt for a moment which of the three
should bo selected, to say nothing of the
claims of this county to the nomination I
JOHN B. PACKER.
"It is now definitely understood that John
B. Packer has resolved to contest for the
Republican nomination for Congress in this
district. While we are firmly of the opin
ion that a Dauphin county roan Bhould be
nominated, and while we know we have
many very ablo men peculiarly qualified for
this position, wo still cannot refrain from
according to Mr. Packer tho very highest
attainments and qualifications, personally,
professionally, mentally and morally, for
Representative in Congress. There is no
thing second-rate about Mr. Packer. He is
a man of education and Gno natural endow
ments. He has great practical acquirements
as a business man understands the busi
ness wants of tho people has closely stu
died the financial system of the nation, nnd
is in every particular, just such a man as
would advance the infiuonce of the district
in Congress, promote by his oflicial acts the
interests of his constituents, and in every
way reflect credit on tho Republican party.
If we cannot get a good Dauphin county
man. and Mr. Packer is nominated and ac
cepts, we shall consider ourselves, as one of
the uarcl worKcrs in tuo ranics or jvcpuDii
canism, as possessing a powerful anxilliary
in such a candidato to insure success."
TnE State Guard, at Harrisburg, contains
tho following article in relation to tho ne
cessity of electing new men to represent the
people in Congress, as well as in the Legisla
ture. Tho views expressed by our Harris
burc cotcmporary are in accordance with
those of a largo portion of the people, who
desire to see the country represented by men
of ability, character and standing, free from
the influences, "cliques" and "rings," which
bare brought our National, as well as our
State Legislatures, into disrepute :
"NEW MEN FOR CONGRESS."
"It is very evident to the business men of
tho country to plain, common senso pco
pie that one of tho present great nceda of
tne nation is new men in congress, bo no
toriously corrupt have the great body of
men in Congress become that success in cor
ruption is now really regarded as the first
end and oim ot two out ot every turee men
holdinc scats In either branch of that body,
The trouble'is, there are too many hucksters
inCongress.and we are quite surcthero are too
many of tlie same ciaBS seeKing places tucre.
By somo means this must be broken up or
the influence ot these bait men will break
down tho Government. We must not thiuk
because we have whipped a wicked rebellion
wo have entirely escaped all danger, but we
must now go to work and whip the bad
men who have foisted themselves on the
Republican party, who, invested with its
powers and elevation, have been misdirect
ing legislation, plundering tho Treasury and
sappini; the foundations of the Government.
"By the enthusiasm created on account of
its stern devotion to tlie government during
the struggles with traitors, tho Republican
party has been able to elect almost any man
it nominated in what have been considered
closo districts. On this account we have
been ablo to maintain our ascendancy in
Congress and State Legislatures, but the
evil in this case has becu aud is that its re
sults have been to shove mero second rate
and very corrupt men into legislative posi
tion. The Republican party cannot afford
to keep 6ucli men in position any longer.
All the disgrace which we now endure has
been caused by the acts of such men. There
are too many of theso knaves in Congress.
There wcro too many of them in the last
Legislature, and wo earnestly hopo our
friends everywhere will nominate new men
Except a man has real marked ability, two
terms, and even one term Is euougu lor linn
to servo in Concrcss. Ab tho caso now
stands we will never be able to breakup
the plundering rings which exist iu Con
gress unless we elect a large proportion of
new aud better men thau those who uow
occupy seats in that body. These are sug
gestions well worthy the consideration of
the people.' .
'1 he Hoys, in lllue.
The following stirring address, has becu
issued by the Soldiers' Republican organiza
tion of this State, which has already com
menced its labors, nnd will be heard from in
due time :
ITliADQl'ARTKna SOI.DIKRS' AND SAILOK8'
State Central Committee, 1105 Chestnut
Street, Philadelphia, July, 6, 1808.
Uomkapes : vvnen tne rebel armies were
overthrown ami the rebel leaders forgiven
by our magnanimous Chief, the whole world
wondered at the generosity which pardoned
men guilty of so greats crime. Tho least
we expectod was that tho Government for
which we had fought, and for which so
many had given up their lives, was secured
against the possibility ot another conspiracy,
But warned by history, aud taught by our
owa experienco among tho misguided people
of the south, we maintained our organiza
tions, and now, ia the forefront of another
pcnil, congratulate oursolves upon the wis
dom of that decision. So thoroughly have our
military brothors reunited thomselves that
only a few who wore the Union blue can be
induced to join the ranks of the rebel Dem
ocracy. Our camps extend east and west,
from the Atlantic to tho Pacific ; there is
not a veteran who does not realizo that the
public danger may once more call him to
the field. ..The alarming spectacle of a
foruial combination between the twi great
columns of treason the rebel army of the
South and the . rebel sympathizers of the
Korth--is ths living proof of great impend
ing calamities. These desperate men th
one side still vaunting their treason sgainst
the country, and the other still boasting of
the aid aud comlort extended to them
profess to bo cqnfidont of success in the
approacuing election. The animosity they
bore to our belovod -Commander. in f:Iiif

which they hailorl the liberal terms of peace ;
and, now, rempmbering only that ho struck
them in the field, and coldly.- forgetting
how he forgave their great offense, tCey are
toiling" with snnerhnman enerirv to rlufrii
him for the Presidency, and to place lo the
high office a fit'succcsBor of its present guilty
occupant. Their hatred of G rant extendi to
all our beroic leaders, with one or two ex
ceptions. The only offense of these accom
plished soldiers is their fidelity -to the coun
try for which they fought. General Geo.
II. Thomas in Tonncssoe, Genoral Irwin
M'Dowell ia Mississippi, Gtneral Geo. G.
Meade in Georgia, General Ganby in South
Cafolina,. and General ftvnolda
with their predecessors, Sheridan, Sickles.
Pope, Swayne.and Mower, are proscribed
end slandered, like common felons, while
every Union man in the South, black and
white, is subjected to inconceivable cruelty
and oppression. This wholesale malevolence,
looktug directly to tho restoration of tho
rebel governments, teaches usuot only the
i.rinm nnd luslice of our organization, but
invokes us to renewed efforts in favor of
Grant and Colfax, the standard boaters of
tho Republican party, and for our gallant
comrades, Hartranft and Campbell, our
standard bearers in the State contest.
The fundamental idons of this rooul com
bination are that nothing has been gained
bv tho success of our arms, bu t that every
thing has been lost. To forget the sanctified
dead, to ignore and outrage the gallant
living, and to remember and reward those
only whose crimes in other natious would
have been punished by death or confiscation
is tho inspiring motive of our adveraaries.
What American soldier docs not feel the
insult t What American citizen does not
burn to resent it ! Instead of cordially sub
mitting to the laws passed by overwhelming
Congressional majorities, and carried into
effect for the grand purpose of re-organizing
the Boutb upon the basis of equal justice
and equal rights, our recent adversaries
opimly threaten a new resort to arms.
At no period in the rebellion havo they
been at once so defiant and so cruel. Uni
ted in antagonism to the laws, to the nation
al credit, to the national currency, the public
peace, and to those groat principles lor
which we contended, and succeeded in
maintaining, they cooly appeal to tbo people
and ask verdict in favor ot their incredible
crimes. Speaking now for the returned
volunteers of Pennsylvania, who wero dis
franchised by the Democracy, wo solemnly
renow our devotion to our beloved country,
and assert, uot simply our readiness to sup
port our candidates at the ballot-box, but
our determination, at nil times, to march to
our Government's defense against her ene
