MONDAY EVENING, MAY 16, 1864,
THE rsorzars CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT,
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
FOR THE AIIIENDIENT OF THE CONSTITUTION
GBANITtiG THE
SOLDIERS' RIGHT TO VOTE.
County Convention.
A Union County Convention was held this
afternoon for the purpose of selecting con
ferees to appoint a delegate to the National
Convention. Messrs. H. J. Meiley, George
Bergner and Captain M. Novinger were -unan
imously chosen. Proceedings of the Conven
tion in full will appear to-morrow.
The Heart as well ns the Back of the
Rebellion Nast be Broken.
It is admitted by all except those who have
a political or personal interest in the success
of the slaveholders' rebellion, that its military
back-bone has been broken, and that it will
henceforth lack the vigor of making any se
rious demonstrations in the field. Those who
started with rebellion, claiming that the South
could never be conquered, still cling to their
preposterous notions. The copperhead lead
ers, for instance, profess not to see anything
decisive in our victories on the Rapidan.—
These men still claim that the South can never
be conquered, and insist, in the midst of our
glorious triumphs, that the only true policy of
settlement is to recognize the rights of the
slave States, give them additional securities
for the strengthening of slavery, assume their
debts, when quoth the copperhead sneaks,
there will be a basis of real peace attained and
the security and harmony of the Govern
ment -and Union forever re-established.—
From this argument it will be easy to discern
the point aimed at by the Northern sympa
thizers with the slaveholdere' rebellion. Discov
ering that the rebellion is fast losing its mili
tary force, the object now is,:if possible, to pre
serve its political vigor—to maintain, midi
minishd, the prestige of those Southern axis
tocrats who have all their interests and re
sources invested in slavery. But this must
be avoided, if the country is actually to have
peace after the armed force of the rebellion
has been defeated and broken down'; so that
after breaking the back-bone, we must
also break the heart of rebellion. That is,
we must force those who were prominent in
the first proposals of conspiracy—who, with
calm and fiendish malignancy, entered into
the plot of utterly destroying the government
and dissevering the Union—the government.
which is now vindicating its power before the
world, must treat the conquered leaders of
rebellion as criminals of the worst character.
And that Southern society which has ever
aimed at the emulation of the notions and
prerogatives of the aristocracies of the Old
World—that Southern sentiment which has
always estimated labor as degrading, and
denied to the laboring man any right granting
him the franchises of government—the
wretches who taught the notion that the States
created the government, and scouted the
plain truth that the States were the creation
of the government—the men who have' enter
tabled and preaohed alithese dogmas andfalla
cies, must be forced to feel the effects of their
crimes, must be humiliated, their hearts bro
ken, must'be exterminated, if permanent peace
is to be established among the States of. the
American Union. The conspiracy for the
utter destrustion of the Union and the entire
breaking up of the government, was conceived
among that class of men in the South who
have always deemed themselves what 'they
pompously described as the "master race " of
the age. This idea or notion, of a "master
race," underlies all the impulses of the rebel
lion. It was what inspired the timid and ig
norant-men in the slave States impiously to
raise their hand in opposition to the national
authority. It has been the poison of South
ern politics—the bane of Southern society—
the curse of the slave States. To root the
dogma out, the hearts of a majority of those
Who cling to its fallacies, must be broken,
must be plucked from their bosoms! If we want
peace and unity we must dispel all notions of
one section of this great Union being supe
rior in race or resources to another. If we
'want harmony in the working of the machin
ery of the Government, we must recognize
the equalities of those who contribute to the
support thereof—who by their labor con
stitute its wealth, and who, by their intelli
gence and their enterprise, push the States of
the Union forward in the path of empire and
of glory. All this, can only be accomplished
by breaking the hearts of that aristocracy
who for sixty-three years were seeking the de
gradation of labor, and who hoped to cr own
the infamy of their efforts by the success of
as wicked and 83 causeless a rebellion as ever
sacrificed human life to its fury.
"Our Model Governor."
_Under this heading,-the , „Berks and - Schuyl
kill Journal pays the folloWing just and truth
ful tribute to the Governor of Pennsylvania.
It is not neccessary for us to add any word of
our own to this compliment, because wherever
Andrew G. Curtin is personally known, his
humarkity and generosity, are firmly `estab
lished and admired. The langnage - althe
•Tournad is as follows:
Immediately on the receipt of news that the
battle between Grant and Lee had com
menced, Gov. Curtin, accompanied by Sur
geon General King, hastened to Washington
to afford relief to our wounded Pennsylvania
soldiers. He had also taken the precaution,
in anticipation of a fight, to secure the ser
vices of a number of volunteer surgeons in
various parts of the State. At the last ac
counts, the Governor and his medical staff
were at the front, and ire have the assurance
that - the Pepnsylvania wounded will receive
every attention that their situation detnAnds.
God bless the GoVeruor.audhis co-labortut in

The Monroe Doctrine
For almost half a century, the representa
tives of European power have been seeking
a pretext and waiting for an opportunity, to
repudiate the great principle of the "Monroe
doctrine ? " Shut out from the fairest portions
of the Barth--deprived of directly interfering
in the governments on this hemisphere—the
aristocracies of the old world, contented
themselves with envying what they could not
enjoy, and plotting against what they could
not control. The diplomats of Europe in the
meantime consoled themselves with waiting,
and how patiently they did wait, may be in
ferred from the haste with which they under
take to show their contempt of the Monroe
doetrine,the moment it seemed established to
kingcraft that the government of the United
States was unable to enforce the Monroe doc
trine. When it was fairly believed by the rulers
of Europe that rebellion had- impaired the
power of the Federal authority, and that we
would have two governments in the American
States, neither capable of coping with the
most insignificant dynasty in Europe, that
very moment there was a combination made
among the governments of the old world, for .
the repudiation of the Monroe doctrine, by
placing a scion, of European aristocracy on
the throne of Mexico. It was the most cow
ardly act ever perpetrated by the tyrants
of the old world. It was a proceeding
urged to success solely .on the acceptance
of the supposition that the United States
were too weak to maintain their rights.
But since Mexico has been forced to accept an
Emperor from Napoleon, the construction of
the Monroe doctrine in the light of our victo
ries in front of Richrriond may perhaps open
the eyes of the governments who were so
hasty to insult us in our weakness. The sup
pression of the slaveholders' rebellion is now
only a question of time; and time alone has to
do with the, re-enforcement of the, konroe doe
trine.
The Governor of Minuemota.
We had the pleasure of meeting, on Satur
day last; His Excellency Stephen H. Miller,
Governor of Minnesota, being the second
Chief Magistrate of that Commonwealth,
who had once been a citizen of Harriiburg.
Gov, Miller left Pennsylvania and settled in
St. Pauls, Minnesota, where he engaged in
the editorial business, having been one of the .
editors of the lElmm:um prior to leaving Har
risburg. When the war of rebellion was Pre : .
cipitated, he was among the first to arm for
its suppression, and marched to the defence
of the National Capital, at the head of a Min
nesota regiment. After participating in sev
eral important battles ;le was wounded and
compelled to leave the army. The people of
his adopted State, highly appreciating his
gallantry and his services, elected Col. Miller
to succeed Gov. Ramsey, who was elevated to a
seat in the United States Senate. Gov. Miller
is now in excellent health,' notwithstanding
his wounds were of a character to prevent -
him from ever again entering the field as a
soldier. He has many friends in this State,
who heartily rejoice at his success thus lax,
and who anticipate for him a future career of
increased usefulness and honor. ' '
Reinforcements.
We do not intend to write a word as to the
necessity or the fact of reinforcing the Army
of the Potomac. It is understood that
. the
Government has forbidden all reference to
such subjects in the public journals. The
caution was timely, snd no man of true loY
any will fail to observe it strictly. But may
we not ask why so many idle officers and men
are permitted to remain at this and other
posts, when every man in commission or . on
the pay-roll is needed in the field? There are
at least twenty officers engaged in duties at
this post which almost any civilian of ordinary
business acquirements or clerical ability
could successfully discharge. In addition* to
this, thbre is or was this morning a splendid
battery in the fortifications on the bank of the
river opposite the city, while a battalion of
effective men are now doing provost duty,
when it is a matter of common remark that
there are such a limited number of men now
rendezvoused at this post. It may be possible
that the War Department, in the midst of its
present pressing duties, has overlooked these
facts. Hence we give them publicity.
“Grant Has Never Met Leek?,
So said the rebel press when General Grant
undertook the Virginia campaign. It Was
equivalent to the confident assumption, that
while Grant might he -equal to some others,
he was no match for Lee. The retort; as the
sequel has shown, was Mors appropriate than
the taunt, which was that "Lee has not met
Grant." To say the least, this was' as broad
as it was long, and, we might add, a little
broader! There were, we must confess,
grounds for great confidence in Lee. With
out any doubt he is a very able general, hitt
on fields among the bloodiest the sweet heavens
ever yet beheld, his inferiority to Grant has
been demonstrated. If Lee is:great,. Grant is
greater. Fortunate beyond measurels it that
these two generals, who had never met be
fore, had such a meeting.
Postponement of the Union National
convention. •
We have had on file for publication, but we'
regret that we have not room for a letter from
Hon. I. N. ARNOLD, of _lllinois, in reply to a
request to co-operate in the effort_ to secure
the postponement of the Union National Con
vention. The following extract is so well ex
pressed, so forcible and truthful, thftt we take .
pleasure,in- it,
.the prominence :of an
editorial insertion:
"The opposition to the President in Our
own party, talented, eloquent, zealots: arid
active as it is, has scarcely produced a ripple
on the wave-of public' sentiment, which is so
strongly rolling on in favor of Mr. Lincoln's
re-election. - -
There is no organization among the friends
of the President; they are doing nothing; but
the action of the people is spontandous, un
prompted and - sincere. State after Stabitolds
its . conventions, appoints its Aelegatee, azid•
without a dissenting voice, instructs them to
vote -for 11. r.. Lincoln. This popi larity of tile-
President, this unanimity of, the peopleis
contluid to no seotion, bait tatit'lit lOU is
West, Middle State and Border State, they all
speak one voice—let us have Mr. Lincoln for
our candidate. Do I exagerate ? Maine speaks
for him on the Atlantic, and her voice is
echoed by California from the Pacific; New
Hamp.shire and Kansas, Connecticut and Min
nessota, Wisconsin and West Virginia, lowa
and Ohio, and now comes the great State of
Pennsylvania, seconding Maryland, one after
another, they all declare for the re-election
of the President. Is it not wiser to recognize
and accept this great fact rather than to strug
gle against it?
- The truth is, the masses and the people and
the soldiers everywhere, trust and love the
President. They know his hands are clean
and his heart is honest'and pure. They know
that the devil has no bribe big enough, no
temptation of wealth or power, which can se
duce the integrity of Abraham Lincoln.
Hence, the people, the brave, honest, self
denying people, who have furnished the men,
and are ready to pay the taxes necessary to
crush the rebellion, and who are determined
to establish national unity, based on liberty,
they are more . wise, less facetious and more
disinterested than the politicians. Their in
stinctive sagacity and good sense have settled
the Presidential question. It cannot be un-
Battled without a convulsion which will en
danger the Union cause. A postponement of
the convention would not prevent Mr. Lin
coln's re-nomination; it might possibly en
danger his election."
