What we Think of the SOildiers.
, . ,
The action of the Union Convention : of pad
phin'county, in nominating , two of the gallant
Open who promptly responded to the call of the
government, when soldiets were needed te
en
force its poiler and defend its authority; is the
practical evidencd'of what loyal men. at home
think of the soldier Thoki who tibare theper
ills and dangers of contending with the enemies
of the government, should also enjoy its honors
and emoluments. Those who are willing lo
Sacrifice life in a contest for a principle, become
Its noblest representatives. In this spirit,
W. W. Jennings was nominated for Sheriff,
and Col. H. C. Alleman for- Repiesentative.
Both these ilibirdidlitit 'hesitate to serve their
country in battle—a ;softiies' *ILA wag`
honorable and a'S true as‘that rendered by a 4:
other two 'lieu : occupying the Eame grade in
the volunteer army of the country.
,The loyal
men of Dauphin county will not forget to . re
pay that service,-and , they will not merely do
this by elisiaing - bolon - els Allman and Jen
nings to the positions for which they have been'
nominated, bat theY will giVe-tbese candidates
a. majority which will unmistakably 'establish,
, ,
their high appreciation of two &pas, of the war.
And thus.loyalty.and Atatriotiim ever repay
valor.

J CnioAtio, Sept. 2
The following is President Lineola's letter to
he Springfiehl,Mnes Meeting:
Itdotrrws MANSION,
WASHINGTON, August 26, 1863.
Hon. Tames a COnkjillg --MY DBAB Sin: —Your
letter inviting me to attend a mass-meeting of
unconditional talon men, to be held at the
capital of /11inoia, on the 3d day of September,
has been received.
It.would be..very agreeable to me thus to
meet my old friends at my own home, but I I
cannot just now be, absent from this city su
tong as a visit there would require. The meet`'
Mg is to be of all those who maintain flacon
.ticional,devotiort to the Union, and I am sure
; that, my, old political friends will thank me for
rendering ae;i..do, the ! nation'_ii gratitude to
,those other noble,' Aunt
_whom no 'partiz%b
I ,nudice pr partizan •lierts can make false to the na
tion's life. ,
There are those who,stre 'dissatisfied with me.
To such I would say, "You desire •peace,.and
you blame me that we do ndt have it. But
how can , we attain it There are but three
nonceivabitrways : First. To suppress the re ;
hellion by force of arms. This lam trying to
do. Are you for it ? If, yon are, so far we are
agreed. A secund way is to give up the Union.
lam against this. If yon are, you should say
so plainly. If you are, not for force, nor yet for
dissolution, there only remains some imaginary
compromise. Ido not,helleve that any com
promise embracing, the maintenance of the
Union is now possible. All that I learn leads
I to a directly opposite belief. The strength of,
the rebellion; is its military—its army. That
army Siminates. all. the country and all the, ,
people within Retro*.
Any offer of terms made by any man or men
within that range i ln opposition to that armY,
is simply nothing fur thepresent, because each
'man or men have no power whatever to enforce :
their side of a co mpromise,if one were merle with
them. 'To illustrate—suppose a refugee from
the Smith and the peace men of the North get
together in convention s and frame and ploclaim
a compromise embracing a restoration of the
Union, in what way can that compromise be
used to keeP Gen. Lee'e army out of Pennsyl
vania ? Gen. Wade's army can keep Gen. Lee's
army out; of .Painsylvania, and I think can ul
timately drive it out of existence; but no paper
compromise, to which the controllers of Gen.
.Lee'e arre.yrate not agreed, eau at all affect that,
army. :Irt an effort at such compromise we
would waste, the time which the enemy would
improve to our disadvantage, and that would
be all.
comproinise, to lus effective, must b 3 made
either with those.who control the reber army, or
'with the peOPli, first liberated frOm the domi
nation of that army by the success of_our tunny.
Now, alloW rife brassard yotl, that no word or end
motion from the reb,/ army or from any of the men
anitioltaig it, in rehitanito any peace compromise, has
ever come to my knowledge orbetief. All charges and
intimations to the contivry areekeeptive end groundless,
and Iprtmlise you, that if any such proposition 31111
hereafter coMe; it shall not be rejected and kept secret
from you. I frenly.acknowleoge myself to be the
servant of the people ' according to the bond'of
service, the United States Constitution, and
that as stichl am reskunisible to them: _ '
But; 'to be:plain, you are -dissitiefied with
me about the negro. Quite likely there
difference of opinion, between you and myself
upon that subject. I certainly wish that all
men could be free,...while you, I suppose, do
not. Yeti have neither adopted nor proposed
any measure:which is not consistent with even
your views.;, providedoyon are for the Union.---
I suggested compensated emancipation ; to
which yonrepliedthatyou wished not to be taxed
to boy negroes. But I had not asked you to be
taxed to buy negroes, except in suchla way as to
save you fro m.greater taxation to save the Union
exclusively. by other-means. You dislike the
emancipation preichithation, and perhaps you
want to have it - retracted: You say it -is un
constitittrortal.- 'think diffaently. I think
that the binitittition invests its Udinniander-

better after the retraction that( before the issue?
There was more thaiia.year and a half for
trial toeuppress the rebellion before the prods

of which passed:under an explicit notice that it
was coming unless averted . by .those in revolt
returning to their allegiance. The war has cer
tainly progiessed as.aavorably for us since the
issue of the proclamation as before.t I know as
fully as one can knoWtliti•JOUirdbmi of otheasi.
that some 'Of the otiinsndeis of our armies•inth y.
field who h‘kve giVen ue our most 'important
victories, believe the emancipation •policy and
the aid of colored :troops constitute the heaviest
blows_yet dealt to the rebellion; andthar at /dad
one of those important successes could not how heat
achieved when it' was, but for the aid of black soldiers.
Araong_the commanders holding these views
are some who have never had any affinity with
What's calle.d Abolitionism, or with,the Repitb
lican party politics, but who holk.o em pn 4, 13 ,
aa military opinions. I submit their opinions
-
as being mnt i tled to some weight against the
objections often Urged that emancipation:, and
the-arming of the blacks are unwise as .hAtt
tory imessutes,' and were not adopted as such
in good faith. You say that you will not fight
to free negroes. Some of them seem to be wil
ling to fight far you ; but no matter—fight you,
then, exclpsively, to save the Union.
I issued the proclamation o n purpose td aid
you in saviag- the:Union. W henever you shall

wise to you ? But negr, es, like other people,
act upon motives. Why should they do any
thing for us, if we will do nothing- for them ?
If they stake their lives for us, they innq be prompted
by the strongest motives—even the promise of freedom ;
and the promise, being made, must be kept.
The signs look better. The Father of Waters
again goes unvexed to the sea ; thanks to the
great Northwest for it; nor yet wholly to them.
Three hundred miles np they met New England,
the Empire, the Keystone, and New Jersey,
hewing their way right and loft. The sunny
South, too, in more colors than one,
also lent a
hand, on the spot; their part of the history was
jotted down in black and white. The job was
a great national one ; and let none be banned
who bore an honorable part in it, while those
who have cleared the great rivee may well be
proud.
Even that is not all. It is hard to say qat
anything has been more bravely and better
done than at Antietam, Murfreesboro, Gettys
burg, and on many fields. of lees note. Nor
must Uncle Sam's wettftqat be forgotten. At
all the water's margins they have been present,
not only on the deep sea, the broad beyond the
rapid river, but also up the narrow, muddy
bayou, and wherever the ground 'was a little
damp they have been and made their tracks.—
Thanks to all! For the Great Republic—for
the principles by which it lives and keeps alive
i —for man's vast future—thanks to all !
Peace does not appear so distant as it did. I
hope it will crime loon, and come to stay,
and so come as to be worth the keeping in all
friture time. It will then have been proved
that among freemen there can ba no strecessfal
appeal from the b-dlot to the bullet, and that
they who take such appeal' are sure to lose their
case and pay the costs; and then there will be
some black men: who can remember that, with
slant tongue; and Watched teeih,and steady eye,
and a ell poleett bayonet, they have helped man
kind on to this greatoonsummation, white I fear
that there will be some white men unable to
forget that, with malignant heart and deceitful
speech, they have striven to hinder it. Still,
I let us not be over sanguine of a ipeedy final
triumph. Let us 'be quite sober. Let us dill-
Featly apply:the merles, never doubting that a
just God, in his own good time, will give us
the rightful result.
