The Philadelphia Convention
Its Purposes.
Tennessee.
V.'e unrn'all true Union men against
the Philadelphia Convention called by
ttnndall, Cowan, and others. It is a
cheat, a swindle, and the Union Republi
can that puts hid confidence in it will be
betrayed. Fernando Wood is one of the
delegates to it. It is endorsed by the
Copperhead conclave recently assembled
at Heading. It is supported by all the
most notorious Copperheads of the war.
The President supports it, and such men
as Vallandighani, Jesse D. Bright, expelled
from the U. S. Senate, and J. C. Faulk
ner, minister to France under Buchanan,
and arrested upon his return from that
country in 18G1 for complicity with he
rebels, are hastening to him for consulta
tion. But if any Union man expects good
from that Convention, let him ponder
over the words of Montgomery Blair
given in another part of this paper. AVe
lay down no programme for the oonven
tionists, but simply take them at their word.
Should Andrew Johnson be impeached,
though the act might be unwise, it would
he neither revolutionary nor unlawful.
But it is totally gratuitous for Mr. BVir
to speak for the Republican party. His
declaration of the intention of himself
end friends is on the other hand authori
tative and worthy of acceptation. We
, may therefore accept it a3 true that this
Copperhead-Johnson party are willing to
inaugurate a revolution. If they at any
time think it will be profitable to attempt
a rejection of Congress as at present
authorized, and a recognition of rebel
representatives from the South and Cop
perhead representatives from the North
as the lawful CongreES of the country,
let them try it.
On the 19th, Governor Brownlow sent
the following dispatch to Hon. John W.
Forney? "Nashville, July 19, 1866. To
Hon. J. W. Forney, Secretary of the
United States Senate : We have fought
the battle and won it. We have ratified
tho Constitutional amendment in the
House forty-three votes for it, eleven
against it two of Andrew Johnsou's
tools refusing to vote. Give my respects
to the dead dog of the White House."
By a vote of 125 to 12, the House, upon
the receipt of the news, passed a joint
resolution for the admission of the Ten
nessee members. The Senate has most
probably fakcu like action ere this. While
we rejoice over the action of Tennessee,
wo regret that Governor Brownlow has
descended to the level of the President's
22d of February tpcech. If the Presi
dent had no mere respect for himself or
bis high ofUce than to uee low epithets in
a public speech, Governor Browulow
should have more respect for himself and
his high office than to follow in the foot
steps of the President.

The Reading Convention.
The Bending convention has met and
dinurned. Hon. Richard Vaux, of
Philadelphia, was President and made a
ppeech. Ileisler Clymer also made a
speech, in which he invited the faithfu,
'to cut down the miserable weeds ol
Recession and rebellion." And Mr. Cly
ruer also said that although perhaps mis
taken, he had always acted from honest
intentions.
Montgomery B!alr, formerly of Mr
Lincoln's cabinet, aud who went over to
the Democracy inoro than a year ago
aUo niade a speech. Mr. Blair said it
had been his misfortune to differ with the
Democratic parly, but it had always been
composed of honest men. (For instance,
Jacob Thompson, Secretary Interior, well
known in connection with the six million
ewicdlc under Buchanan.) He aldo said
that, "fchould the Radicals carry the elec-tions-in
October, the result would be the
establishment of two Presidents and two
Congresses, for tho nodical sectional
majority would then immediately impeach
President Johnson and turn hira out,
while on the other Lurid the Democratic
members of Congress wcuM unite with
the rogulaly elected members from
tho South." He also warned his hear
ers that they were on the eve of an
other civil war, tho battlo fields of
which would be in the North, while the
South world remain united. lie dis
claimed speaking for any sensational pur
pose ; but earnestly warned the peoplo oi
the North against the evil eflects of tam
pering with the fundamental law of the
land.
Ai'TEU. considerable fighting, in which
Austria was most emphatically whipped,
the contending European powers have
entered into negotiations looking toward
the eabliahing of an armistice, through
which o peaceful solution of the questions
at issue may be arrived at. Late advices
tend to the belief that the negotiations
will be unsuccessful, and that the war will
go on. If so, it is not improbable that
Franco and Russia insy ultimately be
dmwu iuto the quarrel.
Senator Cowan has written a letter
in defence of his Senatorial career. He
seems anxious to make somebody believe
he has acted the part of a good Republican.

. The following is the call for a National
Convention to be held at Philadelphia ou
the 14th August, at which the one-time
great Democratic party proposes to merge
itself into and become identified with
Andy Johnson's "Bread and Butter
Brigade":
To the people of the Tlnited States :
Dangers threaten the Constitution.
The citadel of our liberties is directly
assailed. The future is dark unless the
people will come to the rescue. In this
hour of peril, National Union should be
the watchword of ejery true man. As
essential to National Union, wo muft
maintain unimpaired the rights, the dig
nity, and the equality of the States, inclu
ding the right of representation iu
Congress, and the exclusive right of each
State to control its own domestic concern?,
subject, only to the Constitution of the
United States. Affer a uuiforni construc
tion of the Conetitutiou for mire than a
half century, the assumption of new and
arbitrary power iu the Federal govern
ment U subversive of our system aud
destructive of liberty. A free interchange
of opinion cud kind feeling between the
citizens of all the States ii cecfctvry to
the perpetuity of the Union. . At present,
eleven States are excluded from the
uutioual Council, fur $ven long months
lite present Congress has persistently denied
any right of representation to he people of
these JStates. LatCS affecting their highest
and dearest interest how teen paused without
tlutir consent, and in disregard of Oie fut
damtuial prineiphs oj free government .
This denial ot representation has been
made to all the members from a State,
although theSute, in the langmgeof the
President, "present itself not only in the
attitude cf loyalty and haimony, but in tho
persons of representatives whoe loyalty
cannot be questioned under any existing
constitutional or legal test." The repre
sentatives of nearly one-third of the
States have not been consulted with
reference to the great questions of the day.
There has been no nationa'.itysurrounding
he present Congress. There has been no
intercourse between the representative of
the two sections producing mutual confi
dence and respect. In the language of
the distinguished Lieutenant-Gcoeral, ''it

Ex Postmaster General Dennison is in
receipt of large numbers of letters from
all parts of the West congratulating him
upon his withdrawal from the Cabinet.
A. distinguished citizen of Ohio, iu a note
received to-duy, 6ays : "I was fearful that
you had ton long delayed your re-ignaticn."
To which the Governor replied as follows :
Washington, D. C, July 13, 18C6.
My Dear Sir : Po&sibly it would have
been better for me, personally, to have
resigned some months ago, but my seme
of dut3r to other parties in the country
would not permit me to do so.
While almost certain for several months
that I could not long remain in the Cabi
net, because of the difference of opinion
on public questions betweeu the President
and myself, 1 determined, in view of all
the circumstances surrounding the polit
ical situation, not to withdraw as long as
there was a ray of hope for reconciliation
between the President and our friends in
Cougress. Not until the President's op
position to the Constitutional amendment,
aud his approval of the Philadelphia con
vention were manifest, did I feel that all
hope of reconciliation had failed. Then
I aeted promptly, and would have resign
ed, as I have, if I had kuown that I was
to leave alone.
I am satisfied of having resigned at the
right time, and with the right spirit.
Whatever may be th consequences to me
personally, I have done my whole duty to
our country, and I return to my home
with quite as much satisfaction as I had
in coining here.
My administration of the PostolEce De
partment has been as successful as I could
reasonably expect, and I am content.
Truly j ours, W. DEN'NISON.
a
Awful to Contemplate. The Au
gusta, Georgia, Chronicle contains the fol
lowing melancholy communication :
"Mr. EDrroR Sir : Where are we
drifting? Are the Southern people ready
to place whites and blacks on a social
equality ? I am induced to ask the-e
questions from scenes witnes.ed in both
the Epi-copal churches in this city on
Sunday lust. The right of confirmation
wa3 administered io the morning, at the
Church ot tho Atonement, to several ne
groes at the same timb with the white?, all
kneeling together around the s-jme altar,
and in the afternoon, at St. Paul's, to one
negro, and she of a very questionable
character heretofore, kneeling side by Bide
with the whites It any distinction wa?
made, I did not discover it. The ucrt
step, and a very natural one I think, will be
to co them together at the communion
table, and in the Kamc pews. If one is
allowed, the other cannot be prevented.
If this equality suits the taite ot the
pastors of these churchc, let them both
run to their native clime, where such
things will be more cougenial. If thi
Southern men arc not willing to pee their
wives, their daughters, and themselves,
kneeling around t lie tamc altars with the
negro, let them rebuke, in strong terms,
the action of the pastors of the Episcopal
churches here, last Sunday. If they are
williug, then God help u3; we are in a
deplorable conditiou."

-I. E. Roberts, IS. Champneyt and others ;
Uentlemen : 1 nave receiveu your
kind letter asking me to allow the u-e ot
my name as a caudidate for United States
Senator.
I believe that office, (when tendered) is
not to be declined without some stror
reason. But it has always been my opin
ion that no man thould make himself
candidate for it, or to take any part in the
canvas. A person fit for that position
ought to be discoverable without notice
from himself or recognized agent. This,
however, h a matter or taste about which

On Tuesday afternoon lat, Mr. N.
II. Painter, Washington correspondent of
the Philadelphia Inquirer, was assaulted
and badly beaten in the vestibule of the
Hnnort of Representatives by a ruliian
named Beveride. This Boveridgc is
hired tool of Slonaker of ' Philadelphia,
who was nominated to the Senate by the
President for the Collectorship of Internal
Revenue at Philadelphia but was not
confirmed, and tho assault was made
because Painter had unfavorably criticized
the claims of Mr. S. to the position.-
Beveridge was arrested and will be kept
in custody till march 4th, lbb.
Sunday .morning last, Mr. Beechor
made an allusion to the preseut war in
Europe, in which he said : .
"Two thieves go out to rob a
roost ; when they have done their
work they quarrel over the hens rob
bed. In the present struggle he went
with the Italians, and next to them with
the Austrian government. He thought
the Prussinn government was least deserv
ing of sympathy, though he sympathized
with the people of Prussia more than with
those of Austria. He said it was exceed
ingly disagreeable to have to agree with
all three at ouce. Though this war had
for its stated object but the partition of a
small territory, its ultimate result would
be truly great. The advancement of the
cause of human liberty, for the last fifty
years, in Europe, had been inevitably
verging toward this, and more particular
ly during the last twenty five year?. The
Russian peasantry were being freed from
their bondage. In trance, though under
the heel of despotism, the people had more
true liberty than they ever before enjoyed.
Before the French Revolution every law,
from the great laws cf the realm to the
smallest one of a village, was a wholesale
conspiracy to keep the people under.
They were as a fly is, after having been in
the claws of a voracious spider, bcu;id
round aud round, and fettered until it al
most seemed they had almo-t lost their
original nature. But they finally rose iu
one mighty effort and burst their bonds
asunder. Then came the desperate war
of Napoleoo, then the intervening period,
and now the laws ure whoIeEome to what
they ooce were. England was now iu the
most rotten condition of any portion of
Europe. In that Country only every sixth
man could vote. A hat would we think
here if one man voted and rix could not ?
Her laws in reg-trd to the po-scssin of
land were outrageou, when th ?e who
possessed property of any description were
iu a large minority. He hoped these
things would oe changed by judicious
laws, but if not, a mighty revolution would
Cutne and sweep away such llimsy jarn
cades. In conclusion he said he saw but
one issue to the present strule in Europe
-the moral and intellectual elevation of
the common people."
Gen. Sherman's Prediction.
On Friday last, Gen. W. T. Sherman,
while attending the commencement exer
cises at Yale College, made a specch to
the studeuta, which occa-ions considerable
criticism from the conservative journals.
What specially provuks them is this :
"Ai you go out into life y-u will find
opportunities enonyh to stand up for tho
old fla you may even have a chance, to
fi.'ht for it. I tell you that before you
pass from the sfaye there will le fighting,
in comparison with which mine will stem
slight, and I have seen enough."
This is Goo. Sherman's view of the sit
uation. We take it he has just the f?me
ri gh t as all other citizens to his judgment
of public affairs, and at suitable times to
express it. His juduint certainly
concurred in by multitudes of thoughtful
men in nil parts of the country. The fear
is widely entertained that the President's
Policy, as developed in his Veto Mesoat;rs,
and his ma:. nor of eivin-.' it effect, as in
dicated in his 22J February speeceh, tend
in that direction. When the Republican
leader?, who ("food by the fhg, are de
nounced as traitors, iu the same odious
sen-e as the men who fired on the fbig,
and the duty of putting them down by
the exercise of force is openly proclaimed,
what else ean sensible people do other
than feel apprehensions tor the future ?
p
What History will Sat. A writer
of a sketch of Major General Meade in
the United Service Magazine, to indicate
the importance of the battle of Gettys
burg, says the "Rollins Outlines" of a
few centuries hence will depose of our
great contest somewhat after this fashion :
"Buchanan was succeeded by Lincoln,
a wise, and patriot ruler. Daring his
Presidency the Southern States revolted.
After several indecisive action, Lee, the
insurgent leader, was defeated at Gotrvs
b'fg by Meade, who commanded the
principal force of the Republic; the
Southern territory was overrun by numer
ous armies ; its' ports were effectually
blockaded ; the slaves were declared, ffee
and many of them enlisted in the national
armies; and finally Richmond, the capital
of the revolted States, was captured by
Grant, the Commander-in-chief of the
United State armies ; and ihe insurgents
were compelled to lay down their arms.
Lincoln was re-elected President, but was
afterward assassinated by an obscure
actor."
We may expert news now almost any
day from the fifth expedition which has
attempted to unite, by a thread 2,000
miles in leugth, the Old World with the
New. The shore end of the Atlantic
Cable was landed at Valcntia Bay on the
7th, and if the Great Eistern sails at the
same rate of speed on this voyage as she
did on the last, she ought to arrive at
Trinity Bay, supposing all to have gone
well, some day this week. There are
many reasons for confidence in the success
of the present effort ; but repeated failures
have predisposed the public to gloomy
anticipations, and we shall probably never
agaiu witccsb cither the dark disappoint
ment which followed the first failure, or
the frantic exultation which succeeded
the illusory success of 1S58. Our old
time excitement has given way to a settled
faith in the possible union ofEuiope and
America by an electric cable, and a deter
mination to effect that union, even if we
try and fail eeveuty times seven.
The House of Representatives have
voted to censure General Rousseau for his
assault made on Mr. Grinnell for words
hpoken in debite. There is a report that
Rousseau intends resigning his Feat.
In the contested election case of the
lGth Pa. district, Congress has ousted
Coffioth, Pom., and given the neat to

Col. Frank Jordan, Chairman of

adtlrcsHtJ a letter to Go7. Curtin a few
day3 ago, it-qnirin why he did not con
vene the Legislature of this State in extr;
session, to ratify tho Constitutional Anicr.d
inentd. The Governor replies that h? ha,
not yet received asduiances from the Gov
ernors of fufEcient ot the State, to ratify
the Amendment', that they intended to
convene their Iegislatures j and until be
doe receive such assurance, he does not
think it advisable to convene the Legisla
ture of thi. State. It i understood that
the Governors of Illinois, Missouri and
Maryland positively refuse to convene
their Legislatures, audit is pretty evident
that the Amendments cannot be ratified
until the usual time of tho meeting of the
different Legislatures, if at all. It would
thcreforo be foil' for the Governor to con
vene our Legislature under tho circumstances.
