OF ILLINOIS

Andrew Johnsomi,
OF TENNESSEE.
The National Union Nominees for Pres.}
dent and Vice President. • • '
The nominees of the Baltimore National
Union Convention, for President and Vice
President are now before the country. The
men thus named scarcely need a reference
personally or politically. Abraham Lineoln,,
for over three years has centered in his' official
acts, more of the hopes of the peeple than .
any s inan "ever wielding power in the United
States. Invested with authority at .a time
when a band of wicked conspiraters lied ?nil
tuned their plans for its repudiation—,lissim
ing the constitutional control of the Giavern
ment when its departments were swarming
with traitors—taking charge of its' military
and naval forces when they were corrupted by
treason—it was confidently predicted that Mr.
Lincoln could not remain in Washington one
month from the hour of his inauguration, and
as to his exercising the functions of the Presi 7
dency, that was regarded as an impossibility..
James Buchanan-and a portion of his Cabinet
had arranged, before they retired' frem office,
to deprive Mr. Lincoln when he entered on
the discharge of. his duty, of all the means
necessary to success in enforcing the law and
conducting the affairs of the GoVernment.
Robbing the arsenals, dismantling the navy
yards, ordering the army to points in 'the
South, and sending our ships of war to dis
..
taut seas, were the frauds resorted. the
conspiraters-; to paralyze the efforts of.. Mr.
Lincoln in seeking to enforce the national
authority; and to all of these frauds, the
Democratic leaders North and South, were
parties. The events of the struggle necessary
to counteract the slaveholders' conspiracy
have passed into history. We need not refer
to these now to, refresh the recollection of our
readers as to their frightful import 'and bloody
aspect. But it is in place to - write, that "as
those events lollowed close one upon another,
the Max, Abraham Lincoln,never once swerved
from what the 'MAYES of the country deemed
the judicious and the patriotic' course; 'and'
whether he was behind or in advance of thOie
associated with him in power, the people.ever
looked to him as a conscientious, pure, hon
eat, and patriotic statesman, whose highest
aim was the good of his country, and whose
least thought was self. lt has not been what
scholars regard as erudite and dazzlingly pol
ished, IT what politicians esteein as eminent
stateimanship, that has elicit&Pfor ; Mi. Lin
coln this unbounded confidence. There
were those in power who, perhaps, ;excelled
Mr. Lincoln in the knowledge of its use and
force ; there were men associated with him ,
in the control of the government who were mere
cunning in diplomacy, and whom he- could
not rival as . Ananciors—yet with all these ad:.
vantages of those around him, 'his great
goodsense, his practical wisdom,his plain way.
of aPplying the truth, his keen perception`of the
nature of justice, his wonderful knowledge of
men, and his ownpurify andpatriotism, enabled
Abraham Lincoln thus far to steerhie country
through the most terrible ordeal ever pressed.
'aP4tthe progress of any nation. He has
absalutely and in. reality been the savior of
his oountry. His prudence has done 4.thuoh.
to save this Union, thus far, as hae the valor
of our armies. His caution on oneuhand and
his.firmness on the other, have so fairly bal
anced the sternness' with what has been re
garded as the conciliations of the conflict,
that the extremists in both sectionl , hoW
luctantly acknowledge that while .the course
of 'Mr. Lincoln puzzled all for its wis
dom is now becoming apparent in victories
that promise perpetual peace among the
States now at war. Such , ia the man' whom
the •loyal American people now seek to re
elect to the Presidency. Well is it for the
nation that such a man lives. Our principles
that are regarded as, essential and mighty,
would fail of their influences if not suardell
and represented by such a character: Thena
tion itself would be tossed like la ship 'without
a pidder on the wild waves of the political
tempest, and lost to human sight, 'wench mot
for he who now stands, at its helm.' Let us all
rejoice; then, that in the hour of our national
afflietions such a min" as Abraham Lincoln
lives toddministei, the_ GovernMent, .enforce
its laws and vindicate its ; ,constitutional au
thority. _ That he will be re-elected President
is a fact deereed by Heaven, the same as Ged
has fixed the triumph of ,our arms, because
it is His battle that we are now fighting!
The nomination of Andrew johneon, of Ten
nessee, is a tribute to a .statpsneap -,4400 laas
been faithful -to his country in its , darkest.
hour Of peril; and a step in the direction of
tecipstruction fraught with great importance.,,
The leaders of the rebellion have heretofore
'succeeded in rallying large. masses, to, thejr
standards on the plea that the struggle forlhe
defence of,the..Government and, the preSeiva.
tinn of the Wen, was a war. ~,.t ;49
pcopie
of
the Southern . States—was a c.auseless ertukcie,
on a section. The falsity of such positisins]are

The' Candidate for Congress in
MVOs District.
Editor of the Telegraph :
The time fast approaching for the pre
liminary prikeeedings to nominate a Congres
sional Candidate, to be voted for by-the peo
ple -of this District: 'Dauphin comity has a
vast interest in the candidate to . be
ed, - as "regards his personal repiitntion,
political purity 'and fitness to represent her
vast interest in the Legislative Halls of the nit- .
tioh. More thari any other District iifthe Coin
monwealth, if not in the country, ive feel the
disgrade and the humiliation of an inaompe
tent-and a fidse Representative; and hence
it is only - natural that we shoUld inhice•threry
honorable and patriotic effort to get rid of the
shame.
' After fairly canvassing the merits of some
of our beat men, among the people of the
"Upper End,' and fully discussing the quali
ties and'abilities essential to success as a Con
gressioniii Representative, I find that the
people in this region are decidedly and even
enthtisiastically in favor of A. J. Herr, Esq.,
of Harrisburg, as Dauphin county's preference
for the Congressional nomination of the 'Dis
trict. There is no doubt whatever ..of his
ability, because hia.talents and acquirements
are of the,very highest order. MS devotion
to 'pure political'lSfinciple has been too
oftew tested • and . '-'fourid . 'firm to need a
reference -in this corarnunication ; while his'
zeal and consistent course in connection
with his party, make up a claim for him
on its confidence, and' support which no
other man in the District can exceed. Why
then, should Col. Herr not be made the Union
candidate for Congress ? In that struggle are
will need a man who can advance his own
standard—who can 'defend his own cause and
adtocirte'that of his supporters. Col. Herr
is that man.. It is to our interest, therefore,
as loYal met as Well 651 essential for the gen
eral success, that we should have such a man,
for our Congressionial candidate. Let'those,
then, who will have' the Congressional nom
ination in charge be admOnished of what is
due to the people.
f‘THE UPPER END. "

The recent successes that have attended our
