MONDAY MORNING, NOV. 24
A NATIONAL CONVENTION
PROPOSED.
Some ofiour Democratic cotemporaries,
we perceiVp, are suggesting the propriety
of a israti)pal Convention of the conserva
tive eitizeris of the States, to take into
consideration the best means calculated
to stop ons civil war; if this is not consid
ered expedient, then a meeting of the
CengressVien lately elected is suggested
to conve4 for a similar purpose.
The impenetrable gloom which is now
obseuritOur country's brightness is also
causing iri many minds sad forebodings
for the Were of the Republic. Onr best
men are !eppressed with apprehension, as
to the result of our present troubles; and
are lost labyrinths of thought and per
plexity iii ;their efforts to suggest a mode
of deliveince therefrom. For ourselves
we see no! hope of good resulting from
either o gatherings suggested; but on
the contiy the probability of much harm.
Our country must bleed on for some time
yet before she is prepared for counsels
which intthe end must bring about a peace.
Our govegnment is in the possession of a
party which is governed by fanaticism and
.not reastM ; radicalism has triumphed in
the Cabinet, and its behests are visible in ,
the fiel4lit has its own programme of
operationks and insists upon its being im
plicitly iilieyed. This radical determine
tion to Take the war bend to the purposes
of negrel emancipation we thought we
saw gradeally gaining the mastery in the
Cabinetrseveral months ago. For that
reason 4ve should have been glad, had
Gen. ,McClellan been removed from the
head oOthe Potomac army nine months
since. IWe are now desirous for the arri
val of the period fixed for the gallant.
BurnsiOs decapitation; and for the sub
stitutiotilof Fremont in hiastead, and for
the conWlete development of all the secret
measures which the Abolitionists intend
to infliCtupon us. When they come to
as
the end,of their string, then, and not till
then, will it be time for the conservatives
I to meet in National Convention.
It our%otemporaries will but think for
a secon4 they will perceive that the late
wondero reaction in public sentiment, as
developed at the polls, has only aggrava
vated and not moderated the action of the
Adminirifration. Measures utterly eon -
demnedihy the people are now being in
sisted tiPpri‘vith increased vehemence and
tenacity;) This the country, for the pres
ent, willtave to bear.; and a National
Conventn which would interfere with
the present plans of the emancipationists
would of have the effect of arousing per
haps a crvil war here amongst ourselves.
Witness the ho al of fanatic fury which
has justllbeen heard from the Abolition
press, bOause of a fabricated rumor that
certain Democrats in New York were en
gaged inla plan for stopping the war.—
How would it be, then, if a National Con
ventionfwere to assemble and take ground
against the radical measures of the Ad
ministratlen ? The reader may here then
enquire What are we to do? We answer.
nothing,-ter the present, but investigation
and fearleits discussion. Prepare the peo
ple for the good time coming, and when,
in a yearfrom this, our new Congress will
be in session, they will be sustained by a
public seritiment, created not by public
demonstration and violence, but by that
"sober siOnd thought," which was mani
fested so visibly in our late elections. The
conservatives,can do nothing for a year at
least. Were they to meet in convention,
their suggestions would be hooted by the
party in , power; and, besides, the condi
tion of the , country, like the face of a big
panoramaOs changing so rapidly, as to
bewilder and confound the best of us. All
we know is plat a terrible calamity has be
fallen the ountry,and the blunderings and
miscalculations of those who ought to know
something of its probable duration only
reveal its horrors and magnitude. One
thing we may calculate upon, and that is,
the people will learn by experience,if it is
dear enough. We are now passing thro'
a fiery ordeal, which will, in twelve months,
more suffering, purify our thoughts and
curb our passions. Southern treason by
that time inust be hopelessly weakened ;
the masses , Cf the people of that section
will be,:like the masses of our own, ut
terly disgusted with their rulers; taxation
and corruption will have aroused indigna
tion in , the bosoms of all who have no t
participated, in the plunder, and prospec
tive poverty and destitution do what force of
arms and diplomacy can not now accom
plish. Thefeountry must bleed on before
she is cured; the lesson we are receiving
is wholesome, though severe. We mus t
put up with the quackery of our physi-
cians for C,:season longer, and then the
people will !gladly fall back upon the ad
vice of those!whose counsels governed the
country since' its foundation, and in eighty
years raiieditt to the pinnacle of nationa
greatness.
JORTN VAN BUREN.
A pious abolition correspendent of an
Eastern paor, writing from Washington,
says :
"The arrital of John Van Buren is re
garded as au event of far more significance
at the present time than his mere_per
sonal influence would warrant. From
evidence too ['direct to be overlooked, we
are satisfied that he is but the John the
Baptist to that Anti-Christ, Fernando
Wood, whoii!i,-coming during the latter
days is so distinctly foretold in the sacred
prophecies, 'find a whole brood - of apostles,
including Vallandigham, is expected to
gather from different sections cf the coun
try, to perfea the schemes, already in
embryo, for cdmpromise with the 'rebels,
and coercion of the President into acqui
escence therein."

The N. Y.iiiourna/ of Commerce learns
from excellent authority that Lord Lyons
returns to Wishington without any instruc
tions from hiSiovernment in reference to
.the war. Thiai ought to stop all further
Speculation ealthe subject. ,
TTIZI VIPTII AVENUE
AROUSED.
The arrival of Gen. McClellan in New
York, the other day, aroused the citizens
of the Fifth Avenue to a feeling of enthu
siasm which can only be produced by the
presence of a genuine patriot. On being
introduced to the vast ninliitude, the Gen
eral spoke from the balcony of the Hotel,
as follows : •
Mr FRIENDS-I thank you kindly for
this spontaneous tribute of regard. I ac
cept it not for myself, but for the Army of
the Potomac, which I once commanded,
and in which you are so deeply interested.
Every battle, from Yorktown to Antietam,
has added new proofs of the courage and
' devotion of the citizens and soldiers of
New York—(loud applause)—and has in
creased the great debt of gratitude due
to them by their country. (Applause.)--
No portion of thit broad republic has more
liberally poured out its millions of treas
ure and thousands of brave men in the
cause of the country than this great me
tropolis. (Applause.) At the commence
ment of the struggle no community was
more prompt in responding to the appeal
of the government for aid. No commu
nity had a greater stake in the success of
the cause than this, and none is more
closely bound by the ties of kindred to the
army with which I have been so long asso
ciated. I, therefore, and my former com
rades, will feel deeply honored by the oc
currences of this evening; and it is with a
heart full to overflowing with gratitude
that I again thank youfor your presence
to-night. You know that I am still a sol
dier, and, therefore, you will expect no
speech from me. You will, therefore,
now permit me to say good night.
The speech was received with boundless
enthusiam and cheer after cheer.

United States Senator
The general election law of July 2d,
1839, sect. 159,says the Patriot and Union,
provides that the election of United States
Senator shall take place on tjie second
Tuesday in January.
The act of April 18, 1853, Pamphlet
Laws, page 462, provides that the election
shall take place on, the second Tuesday of
February.
The act of January 4th, 1836, section 2,
Pamphlet Laws, page 2, repeals the act of
April 18th, 1853.
The election of Senator of the United
States, therefore, under the act of July
2d, 1839, will take place on the second
Tuesday of Jaunary next.
In the foot note in Bright'ey's Digest,
new edition, page 383, the act of 1853 is
cited,the learned author of that Digest not
having adverted to the fact that the act of
1853 had been repealei by the act of 1856.
Resolutions Passed at the Public
Reception Giv . en to Hon. D. A.
Mahoney, the Victim of the Gov
ernment Bastile at Washington.
[From the Dubuque (Democratic) lierabi.l
The Committee on Resolutions, through
their Chairman, Stilson Hutchins, sub•
milled the following preamble and resolu•
tions, which were adopted amid great en,
thusiasm :
"WHEREAs, Our fellow-citizen, Dennis
A. Mahony, having been arrested withput
authority of law incarcerated in a nation
al Bastile, and discharged from his con
finement without being informed of the
charges preferred against him and without
an examination of his alleged offenses,
therefore
"Resolved, That we regard it as the duty
of the Government and those intrusted
with its administration to protect every
citizen, whether humble or exalted, in all
the right guaranteed to him by the Con
stitution of our country, including the
rights to give free utterance to his senti
ments, either through the press or with
the tongue.
"Resolved, That we regard the arrest of
D. A. Mahony as a wanton and flagitous
disregard of law, as an annulling of the
Constitution and an otter disregard of the
principles on which our Government is
founded and by the observance of which it
alone can be perpetuated.
"Resolved, That if the citizen can be
seized in the hours of night, borne from
his home, family and friends, and incarce
rated in a prison without knowing the of-
Lenses wherewith he is charged, then our
boasted liberty has become a reproach,
and our vaunted greatness has been dis•
graced to the meanness of servility.
"Resolved, Thatan 'honorable discharge'
does not exculpate federal officials from
the consequences of an illegal arrest, and
that they must restore, as far as they have
succeeded in impairing, the good name of
their victims, the hours which they have
been cruelly forced to spend in a political
Bastile—to say nothing for reparation for
minor acts of injustice which they have
suffered, before they can claim our res
pect, much less our support.
"Resolved, That we hail with joy the
dawn of the approaching day when such
acts-of oppression will cease, once and for
ever, to be tolerated by the free men of
America.
"Resolved, That we do hereby tender
our sincere congratulations to Mr. Maho
ny and his family on his return from a cru
el and uncalled for Confinement."
FROM NORTH CAROLINA
The Expedition to Hamilton
General Poster has made to Major
General Halleck an official report of his
recent - expedition through several of the
Eastern counties of North Carolina.—
The main facts, however, have already
been given. He states that although the
main object of the expedition was frustra
ted by bad roads, what was accomplished
will have a good effect on the Union cause
in his military department. It was his in
tention to pursue the enemy to Tarboro',
but the exhausted condition of his men,
most of whom had been sick during the
last two months, and had not yet recover
ed their strength, and the provisions being
entirely exhausted, so that he had to sub
sist the command by foraging, as well as
the fact that the enemy were being largely
reinforced by rail, changed his plans, and
on the 7th he started on his return to New
bern.
The navy, under commit of •Com•
sander Davelpport, senior 51 titer, co-opg
erated heartily with Gen. 'Foster durin -
the whole time, by sending 'Ave gunboats
to Hamilton and there placing tour boat
howitzers, with theircrews, at his disposal.
Evading the Draft
A town-meeting was held in Wethersfield,
(Conn.) on Tuesday, at which the business
of a draft wss • considered. The meeting
came to the extraordinary conclusion. and
voted: First, that they would have no draft;
secondly, directing the Selectman to pay
no attention to any orders for a draft if
the Governor issues them; and, thirdly,
paying the floe imposed by law upon Se:
leetmen for tefusingto draft when order

The following is the reply of the Mayor
of Fredericksburg to the demand of Gen.
Burnside, which, owing to the late hour,
could not be had last night.
Mayor's Office, Fredericksburg, Novem
ber 21, 1862. To Brevet Maj. Gen. E. V.
Sumner, commanding United States Army:
I have read, at twenty:minutes before four
o'clock, this afternoon, your communica
tion of this date. In it you state that, un
der cover of the houses of this town, shots
have been fired upon tie troops of your
' command; that our mills and manufacto
ries are famishing provisions and materi
al for clothing for armed bodies in rebel
lion against the government of the United
States; that our Rail Roads and other
means of transportation and removal fur
nish supplies to the depots for such troops.
That this conditioa of things must termi
nate; that by command of Major General
Burnside you demand the surrender of
this town into your hands, as the repre
sentative of the government of the United
States, at or before five o'clock this P.
M. ; that failing to give an affirmative re
ply to this demand by the time indicated,
16 hours will be permitted to elapse for
the removal from the town of the women
and children, the sick and aged, which
time having elapsed you will proceed to
shell the town. In reply I have to say
that this communication did not reach
me in time to convene Council for its
consideration and forward a reply by the
hour indicated, five p. m. It was sent to
me through the hands of the commanding
officer of the army of the Confederate
States, near this, to whom it was first de
livered, by command of General Patrick,
who brought it from yor, as I am inform
ed, and I am authorized by the command
er of the Confederate Army to say that
there was no delay in forwarding it through
his hands to me. In regard to the matters
complained of by you—the firing of shots
upon your troops occurred upon the
Northern suburbs of the town, and was the
act of the military officer commanding the

matter the citizens nor council authorities
of the town are not responsible. In regard
to the other matters of complaint, I am au.
authorized by the latter officer to say that
the condition of things therein complain
ed of shall no longer exist; that your
troops shall not be fired on from this
town; that the mills and manufactories
here will not furnish any farther supplies,
provisions or material for clothing to the
Confederate troops. nor will the Railroad
or other means of transportation here
convey supplies from the town to the de
pot of said troops outside of the town: the
civil authorities of Fredericksburg have no
control, but I am authorized by the mili
tary authorities of the Confederate army
near here to say that nothing will be done
by them to infringe the condition herein
named as to matters within the town; but
the latter authorities-inform us that while
their troops will not occupy the town
they will not permit yours to do so; you
must be aware that there will not be more
than three or four hours of daylight with
in the liS hours given by you tor the re•
moval of the sick and wounded, the women
and children, the aged and infirm from
this place; and I have to inform you that
while there is no Railroad transportation
accessible to the town because of the in.
terruption thereof by your volunteers, all
other means of transportation within the
town are so limited as to render the re
moral of the classes of persons spoken of
within the time indicated an utter impos
sibility. I have convened the Council,
which will remain in session awaiting any
further communication you may have to
make. Very respectfully, your obedient
servant, M. SLAUGHTER, Mayor.
Last 'night was a busy time in Freder

mililary authorities were also not idle, as
daylight this morning revealed to view a
line of earth works to the right and rear.
of the town, the result of last night's la
bor; the artillery are now being placed in
the most - favorable position, while the en•
campments, which were within the enemy's
guns, are being removed further back from
the river. There are very apparent strong
reasons for not opening upon the city to•
day, unless forced to do so by the enemy;
the rebels have just fired a few shots, but
no response has been made.
WasuisoToN, Nov. 22.—The Navy De
partment has been informed of the cap
ture by the schooner Hale in Nassau liver,
of the schooner Wave, laden with turpen
tine and cotton. - The Daylight .boarded
the Racer of Nassau, off Wilmington. The
crew of the latter vessel made their es
cape abd afterwards ineffectually fired
upon the boat& crew of the Daylight.
The Racer bad to be abandoned in conse
quence of the gale, but her cargo, which
consisted principally of salt, was saved.
It is ascertained from other dispatches
that the expedition which fired the Alle
ghenian was led by Lieut. Wood, former
ly of the United States Navy. Several of
the incendia:ies were captured, one of
whom confessed that he was the rebel
pilot on the expedition. The trial of
General Fitz John Porter is delayed in
consequence of the non-arrival of wit
nesses.
