DAILY POST. The o Union as It was; The tionatitutiou as It let Agar Reading matter on every page SATURDAY MORNING, NOV. 8 THATf NATIONAL CONVEN , TION. The call for a National Convention late ly issued, Ow private circulation, by a few damaged Politicians of this locality, has, at length, attracted the attention of the Philadelphia North American; and that sedate, sober and stately publication gives the movement the approbation of its experieneo judgment. The North Amer ican should have come to an earlier con clusion upon the. fitness of . this unclean; king forlthe reason that, for want of early and prompt encouragement, the whole thi4 has been abandoned. The chaps who started this call for a conven• Lion to "'Protect civil and religious liberty in the Nei , World," couldn't stand the effect of their own humor. When we read over some; of the names attached to it, we couldn't rest until we exhibited it to a few -adiniring;.:friends. Old know nothing • castawayOhe very lazzaroni of partiian refugees, 'there had themselves registered, promising to defend "religious liberty," now that it is not in danger, and that, too, throughorilt the whole of the New World. We have, (p our limited,though active and chequered; experience, frequently ob served thti': dodges of restless and. harm poliOcal demagogues; have often been diskusted with some, and pro voked itifi the audacity of others; but this cal' for a national convention, at this juncOre,• to protect the "religious liberties &the people," 1s neither disgust ing or prOoking: it is, on the contrary, amusing. OliVe havn't read anything that has afforded us more enjoyment since our first perusal of Harry Loraque'r. Just imagine one of these waggish roguee,crawl ing in the' darkness of a Know Nothing lodge. as if through the darkness of eter nal doomOoining a conspiracy, by com mitting perjury against the Constitution of his count#, conspiring to deprive his neighbor- of all civil and religious privi leges, and then reflect upon this same thick•skin4ed. demagogue now volunteer ing to defend the citizen in tho enjoyment of both! (After reflection the honest citi zen may grow' indignant at such hypocrisy as this; 14 to us it is rather entertaining. We are pleased at the coolness and sub limity of its impudence, but we are partic ularly attracted by the shifts and dodges of its origiimitor. Just cunning enough to be constatitly overreaching himself, his limited calibre is all the time, concocting plans for 4iolitical promotion. He ima gines hiantelf much craftier than an old fox, but the mere amateurs of his own party eaeily circumvent him. The overthrowlof the Abolitionihs in the late eonteos, he sees, is the death of that party, andihe immediately issues a call fur a convent(bh to form a new one, in the holm of being made prominent in itseoun eels heree4er. He tried a similar dodge in 1856, when he struck a bargain between his wing ef:the Know Nothings and the Republican's in Philadelphia ; but it did him no service. As soon as the bargain was completed, he bad to lake a back seat in the neWr i combination ; he was left out in the cold;litvhere has remained ever since. His industri and perseverance, however, to form andlead a new party are commend able, but ec!en if he and his fugleman do succeed irO:organizing such a movement, they will. reap no benefit from it. They may possibly reach the dignity of Vice Presidents!ii:ff the first meeting, but as for the "Earlikai of Hereford" and the other pickings, they will not be permitted to have. even a, taste. Their's will be, even it successfal4( which is impossible) "Love's Labor L05t.....T WESTERN POLITICS. The tartar we extend our vision in the Western depkrtment olpolities, the greater are seen to lie the rascality and despera tion of the Abolition politicians. In lowa, at her late election, the mo i st shameless and palpablOrands were perpetrated; the :soldiers in Ciimp in that State, numbering many thouruiiids, were entirely disfran chised, nrilerik they voted the Abolition ticket. De4ocratic tickets were destroy ed by the commanding officers of the camps and every facility offered to those who voted the opPosite ticket. In this man ner lowa miff prevented from wheeling into the Deniheratic column by thousands of a majority-k and, instead of the perpe trators of the outrages being ashamed of their proceedings they impudently refer to them as a triumphant evidence of the soldiers in th r e service being all Republi lli cans. In Illinois An. few days previous to the election in th:kt State, the Governor issued the followingl-yifs.mous order: STATS OF ILLINOIS, Exit UTIVE DEPARTMENT, r Springfield, October, 1862. 1 Enrolling 011icer, &c., ------- County: To secure it more complete enrollment of all persona in this State liable to be drafted for Military duty, you are hereby instructed to; . :.kttend the polls in person, or by deputy, in each precinct of your dis trict, on the lay of the next election, No vember 4, 180, and procure the names of all voters. " If it should come to your knowledge that any perthins, not inhabitants of this State on the ;first day of April, 1848, shall have voted oi!ithat day, who have claimed or who may hereafter establish that they are exempt frbni draft by reason of their: being citizens of some foreign StaKci* ing allegiance ;thereto, you are liertibriit structed to lodge complaints against them for false and fraudulent voting. RicuArm YATK,S, Governor. The object of this order was simply to intimidate voters—to keep them from the polls by thretitening a draft in the State, of which there was not, and is not, the slightest prObftbility. But, to show the utter recklessness of Gov. Yates, it is only necessary to mention the fact that if he desired merely to obtain a more correct list of per i sois liable to be drafted, his bet ter plan would have been to let all vote who were entitled to 'that privilege, and then procure the names from the poll lists after the election. la .this way he could have secured a full and complete list of , all who voted, and thus saved the State thousands of dollars. But his Excel leney's plan was to defraud legal voters of their rights, by preventing them from go ing to the polls. In addition to this perforinance of the Governor of Illinois, we have the follow ing in relation to him, which we copy from the Chicago Times of Wednesday last: "The Democracy would have carried the city handsomely but for one of the most shameless and scandalous frauds that has ever been perpetrated at an elec tion. What is called the Hecker regiment arrived here at about two o'clock P. Ni., from Springfield, ostensibly on their way to Washington, having been brought this roundabout route, at a large cost to the Government, for the use to which' they were put. On their arrival, the greater part of them were divided into squads, which, with arms in their hands, pro ceeded, under competent leadership, to roam from poll to poll. Possibly from fifty to one hundred of the regiment were legal voters, but not lessthan six hundred votes were cast by them! The agent of this audacious fraud was the Governortf Illinois himself, 34110 had preceded that, regiment to this city, and who, during the day degraded his office and disgraced him. self by going about to the different elec tion precincts:. ILLINOIS This State, which the telegraph, on Wednesday last, informed us had gone Republican, and which that instrument kept in doubt afterwards for a couple of days, has, it seems. gone Democratic by about twenty thousand majority, giving Us nine Congressmen and a large majority,in the Legislature. Our readers will, there fore, see that Illinois is no longer doubt," and we suspect that a few days will show that Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota have not done so well for the Abolitionists as is now reported. ger TII E. military editor of the (a:etle yesterday gave McClellan the Ildlowing cruel, remorseless and mortal thrust : • " How ridiculous must McClellan's generalship look iu the eyes of the man Who, in a single campaign of six weeks, conquered the armies of Austria and lib erated Italy, with less than half the num ber of men that McClellan has had I" Why don't "Old Abe" turn this "ridic ulous" commander out? lie is the Com mander-in-Chief and Halleck is the Major General, both superior to McClellan in command; why then do not. those 'hav ing control dismiss 'McClellan, if he is so "ridiculous" a failure?

Bragg's rebel .army encountered serious difficulties in its retreat from Ken tucky.

A Portion of Stuart's Cavalry S in Maryland Government was apprised on Wednesday by receipt of an official telegram apprising it of the fact that a detachment of Stuart's cavalry, two hundred or three hundred strong, was still concealed in the woods near Poolesville, Md., and had been there ever since they galloped around the army of the Upper Potomac, having b,•en en. able to cross back again with the rt Wash ingion Gon.

Over one hundred buildings, in the line of the, fortifications now completed, have been appraised and torn down. The seminary building is now used as a hospital, but will probably be destroyed, since it is in the range of our guns. The Tishomingo House, a very large building, situated in the centre of the town, just beside the rail road track, is to be converted into a hospi tal, for which it is well adopted.

"Pa" is somewhat proud of the boy, and Charles was, of course, elabor ately got up for the iirasion. Among other extras, the little ellow's hair was treated to a liberal supply of ecu de ro logne, to his huge glo ification.

The important Military Commission now inspecting the fortifidatiens for the defence of Washington will Make an elaborate re port on the whole subject, whiCh will be of great interest to military men every where. The total perpihery of the chief works around the city is in excess of thirty five miles. It is the opinion of the com mittee, so tar as they have examined, that the sites of the various forts have been judiciously selected, and the forts them selves are well constructed ; but that more artillery and larger garrisons are required to render them more thoroughly defensible; and also that the intervals between the larger works should, in ninny places, be strengthened by the constrnction of rifle pits, redans, and ahattis, considering it clear that if an at tack be made upon Washington it cannot be made along the whole periphery of de fence at the same moment, but that the enemy will mass the strength of their at tack against some portion of the line, probably not exceeding a mile and a half in length, if so much; and it is the opin ion of Generals Totten, Cullum and Bar nard, the three chief engineer officers of the commission, that there are por tions of our ines which eminently call for additional safeguards against an assault of this description. This commis sion, we may add, has been assembled a t the direct request of General Barnard, one of the most accomplished engineer officers in this or any other, service, ander whose chief supervision the whole defenses have been constructed in view of the events. of last August. He was unwilling longer to have imposed upon him the undiyided re sponsibility for the correctness add suffi ciency of works of such importance; and feeling that still additional defenses were necessary, be has very wisely sought the endorsement of his views by this commis sion as preparatory to laying the whole subject before Congress at its next session, with a request for an appropriation, which, at a small additional cost, will render our national capital as impregnable as any for ti lied town on earth. Winter Weather in Ohio It commenced snowing in Toledo, Ohio, last Friday night before bed time,and con• tinned till about ten o'clock on Saturday morning, at which time the ground was covered about three inches deep. On Saturday night it turned very cold, and froze all the apples on the trees. Nearly all the winter apples in the country are ruined. Such a snow storm and freeze were never seen there before in October by the oldest inhabitant. FOREIGN NEWS The French Ministerial Crisis The Paris correspondent of the London Murnt:ny lust, writing on the nth of Oc tober;thus describes the ministerial crisis in France, and the probable changes : "This has been a day of agitation, anxi ety and excitement amongst the members of the imperial cabinet and foreign diplo matists. We are in the midst of a minis terial crisis. I will endeavor to explain the position of the Emperor towards his ministers. When the Emperor left Paris for Bearuz he assured the leading members of the cabinet of his intention to withdraw the French army from the States of the Church'at the earliest convenient period.— . . Thouvenel, the Minister of Foreign A fairs,gave such assurances to the Italian gor rnment, and wrote dispatches to Rome preparing the French Ambassador to make representations to Cardinal Antoneli to that effect. Count de Persigny, as a Min ister of the Interior, and charged with the responsibility of the politics of the min• istorial press, repeated in the Constitu net especially, the assertion that the occu pation of Rome was to have a limit, and not to be - permanent, and the :data quo maintained, as the l'ltramentane journals constantly and emphatically declared. " Meanwhile an intrigue was going on, headed by a party at-court devoted to the Empress and the Papacy, to turn out M. de Persigny; and later occurred 'a second intrigue to get rid of M. Fotdd. Both these mameuvres, however, at the time, failed, and the Emperor renewed his as surances of confidence to the Minister of the Interior and the Minister of. Finance. M. Thouvenel got permission to publish the Roman correspondence in the Mold teur, and his Majesty seemed disposed to prosecute an agreed-upon policy towards Rome, which would end in placing a limit to the occupation. The Emperor return ed from Biarritz, when, as I understand the story, his Majesty began to show symp toms of having changed his mind, and re versed his intention once more. "The Cabinet communicated with each other, and a majority, amongst whom were M. I'ersigny, Fould, Thouvenel, Rouher and Baroche, determined to re sign. This move took place, as far as I can learn, only two days since. The Em peror did not wish to get rid of the whole of his Cabinet, and sought to calm and conciliate. ~. "I have seen a lief of the proposed . new ministry, in which occur the names: , of Viscount La Guerroniers, the founder of La France, and M. Drouynnde L' huys, who returns to the Foreign Office, and who is known to be pro Papal. Count Walew ski would, of course, remain in the Cabi net, he havinglong declared for the Villa franca compact. The latest intelltgenee I could get to-day was that M. Fould, the Minister of Finance, left this morning for St. Cloud, with a sort of ministerial ulti- mutul, in the name of himself and col leagues. Early in the day his Excellency returned to Paris, andhe immediately pro ceeded to the Ministry of Finance. Shortly after he was joined there by M. M. Persig ny, Thouvenal, Baroche, and Rouher.— Up to the moment I am writing these important members of the Imperial Cabi net, are in council, and no one knows what has taken place." A Budhist Temple A traveler writes to the Straits Times an account of a journey through Siam, in which he describes a gorgeous lludhist temple in Aynthia, the old and now ruined ca )ital : 'he temple itself was very grand, of sense size and height, marble pillars supporting the roof, the walls literally covered to the height of about twenty feet with small gilded niches containing figures of Budha. There must have been thou sands of these little idols, and the value may be judged on reflecting that all these images, from the largest, measuring some times a hundred and twenty feet in length, to the very smallest, are made of clay, incased in copper, and that again covered with a layer of pure gold. Of another, he says: 'lnside and outside, the building itself you would say, was made of gold and precious stones ; but the articles of orna ment which you find inside, there is no mistake about. There is a massive silver mat, of nearly half an inch thick, entirely covering the floor, with vases of solid gold, chandeliers, images of Budha, all made of pure massive gold ; the curtain surrounding the shrine is cloth of gold;' the wails themselves, plated with. gold thick as ships' yellow metal, form a splendid contrast to the flimsy gimcrack decorations of the smaller temples which line the banks of the rivit." We , fear such wealth es this may prove too much for French cupidity. Already the French in Saigon have had a diplomatic dispute with the Siamese Kings as to the posses• lion of part of Camoodia.
