And fall into an angry pet,
1 With things too much below them.
For it'e a sad degrading part,
To make another's bosom Smart,

In quietness with all around.

PROPRIZTOR
Letter from Mr. Buchanan.
To the Editor of the N. Y. Everting Ppet :
Sin: In the New York Tribune of yes
terday I read. with no little surprise, an
extract from the Evening Post, (which Ido
not see,) elating in substance that the
Cincinnati Democratic Convention of
June 1856 (not " May "), bad come to a
"dead took." on the evening before Mr.
Bacirtufto's nomination, and had adjourn
ed until the next morning, "with a fair
• prospect it would meet only to adjourn
*hie dis;" but that in the meantime ar
rangements were made to secure his
nomination as soon an the Convention
should re-assemble, in consequence of
Pledges given by his friends. The nature
of these pledges, according to the article
in the Post, was openly avowed by Judge
Black on the floor of the Convention, im
mediately after the nomination. A.ocord
log to it :—" A silence ensued for a few
moments, as if the Convention was an
ticipating something prepared, when
J udge Black, of Pennsylvania, (afterward
Attorney-General under Buchanan,) rose
in his place and made a set speech, in
which be proceeded to denounce Aboli
tionism' and 'Black Republicanism-' very
freely. and to argue that the States pos-
oarr•citt
sassed, under the Constitution, the right
of secession. lie went further and told
the Convention that it the nominee was
elected, and a Black Republican should
be elected as'his successor, h- (Mr. Buch
anan) would cl,) nothing to interfere with
the exercise of it. This pledge was ample
and was accepted by the 8 buthern I ced
ers."
You will doubtless be astonished to
learn that Judge Black, afterward Mr.
Buchanan's Attorney-tieneral; by whom
this pledge is alleged to have been made,
and through whom the evident purpose
now is to fasten it upon Mr. Buchanan,
wile not a Delegate to the aneinnati Convention,
nor was he within 500 milu of aneinnati, dur
ing its session. Instead, of this, he was at
the very time performing his high official
duties as a Judge of the Supreme Court of
Pennsylvania.
It may be added that from the date of
General Jackson's message against South
Carolina nullification and secession, until
that of his own message of December,
1860, and Indeed ever since, no publio
"man has more steadfastly and uniformly
opposed these dangerous and suicidal
heresies than Mr. Buchanan. Had any
person, in or out of the Convention, dared
to make a pledge in his behalf, on this or
any other subject, such an act would have
been condemned a few days thereafter by
the terms of his letter accepting the nomi
,nation. In this, after expressing his
thanks for the honor conferred, he says
that, " Deeply sensible of the vast and va
ried responsibility, especially at the prep
eat crisis in our affairs, I have carefully
refrained from seeking the nomination
either by word or deed ;" and this state
ment is emphatically true.
A "few words in regard to the alleged
" dead lock " in the Cincinnati Conven
tion at the time of its adjournment, on.
the evening of the sth of June, alter four
teen ballots had been taken for keandi
date. It appears from its prpoecklings, as
officially published, that on each of these
ballotings, Mr. Buchanan received a plu
rality, and on the sixth attained a majori
ty of all the votes of the Ponvention; but
not the required. two-thirds. On the four
teenth and last ballot of that evening, the
vote stood 1521 for Buchanan; 75 for
Pierce ; 63 for Douglass, and 5j for Cass.
This being the state of the case; whoa the

and eloquent speaker, " shouts were rais

after the nomination wan announced. To
these he briefly responded in an able and
enthusiastic manner. From the identity

ported with the procisedings, contained

charity have inferred that the author of
the article had merely mistaken the one
name for the other. But there is nothing
in what Col. Black said which affords the
lest color for any such mistake.,
Col. Black afterward sealed his hostility
to secession with his blood. •At an
early stage of the war, he fell mortally
wounded on the field of battle, while gal
lantly leading on his regiment avant .t the
rebels.

Letter from Edinboro.
IcDINBORO, May 16, 1865
FRIEND WHITMAN : Will yourself and
readers psrdon me for obtruding upon
your columns with n brief description of
an impromptu mass 'meeting that took
place in the retired and peaoeful village
of Edinboro last evoning, in honor of the
collapse of the rebellion and the capture
of its chief instigator and supporter, Jeff.
Davis.
The citizens of our borough, without
distinction of sect or party, amid the ring
ing of bells, the firing of cannon, the stir
ring peals of martial music, and the jubi
lant hurrah and exultation of a thousand
tongttle. assemble(' on the village green
around a large bonfire to interchange
greetings and congratulations upon the
arrival of this " gond time." that has been
so long " coming." The assemblage was
addressed in a very happy and appropri
ate manner by Prof. Hamilton of the State
Normal School, a young man of fine tal
ents, pleasant address, and who possesses
the unbounded confidence, lore and es
teem of all our citizens. He acquitted
himself in a manner highly creditable to
himself and the institution with which he
is connected. He was followed by G. A.
Allen, Esq , of the firm of Burlingham &
Allen. who, like the former speaker, took
enlightened, liberal and patriotic viewaof
the condition of. our country in its past ,
present *and future aspects . To the credit
of both these gentlemen be it said, they
indulged in no ribald jokes or jesting., so
unbecoming such a time and such an oc
vision ; and though attached to opposite
political parties in the late Presidential
canvass, neither of them on this occasion
made any allusions to wound the feelings.
of any or mar the happy flow of genial
spirits that, prevailed like an atmosphere
of patriotic devotion around them. And
now would that. I could pause hero in.the
pleasing without delineating the hideous
features of this meeting. But the unkind
thrusts of a Reverend, whose name, out
of respect for his calling, you must, per
wit me to suppress, make it neceseasfy that
I should complete the picture. En par- .
rani 'et me hero say, in vindication of ray
own views touching the disposal 'of the
leaders of this infamous and wicked re
bellion ; I leave them where God has
placed them, or at least many of them, in
the hands of the representatives of a great
and free people ; anti let tts ea:ale-10y
hope and fervently pray that the Great
Disposer of all events will.so work upon
the minds of those in authority by His
Holy Spirit, that these culpable and wick
ed men may be so disposed of as will re
dound pro tonopublico, satisfy the demands
of outraged law and offended justice, and
finally result in the welfare and honor of
civilization, humanity and the great and
holy principles of undefiled chriatiassity.
But the reverend gentleman is afraid to
trust those who have to do with this mat
te r, and after a feeble attempt at carica•
ture he hits out with the bold, defiant
question, " Why, do you think Jeff. Davis
will be hung? I fear he will not be—he
ought to be hanged at both ends," &o.
These and kindred expressions fell from
his lips, all of which time and apace will
not permit me to enumerate. Now, like
Cowper—
" I venerate the man whose heart is warm,
" Whose hands are pure, whose doctrines
and whose life,
"Coincident exhibit lucid proof
"That he is honest in the sacred cause ;
"To such I render more than mere res
pect."
But, u the same poet has it,

dared Prusideat upon the skirts et-the
Demooratie potty. Nothing warn lest look
ed for, nee less called for upon that mourn
ful oocaition, when all Warta trere steeped
in grief, and men nt ati parties, sects end
denoininations, were eeob timing with 'the
other in
,every appropriate manner to do
honor and.respect to the solemn duties, of
the hour,-and all were , alike loud, deep,
and sincere in their denunciations' of the
deed and its guilty, perpetrator. But the
' °cession could noepers without the pal
pit being desecrated by reverting to the
political controversy as. being the heed
and front of offense, while a waiting peo
ple in stricken silence courted that conso
lation the hour and bereaved nation so
much needed to staunch the bleeding
wound.
To those who are acquainted with all
441040e5 - of republiasp teem of AfeY-•
ertiment, and the warnings of all its po
litical machinery, it is well known that
political preferment will and often does
lead to some extreme and undoubtedly
imprudent expressions toward opposing
candidates. This.is necessarily one of the
features of our system of government, and
Abraham Lincoln, as a candidate before
the people, not as President, understana
me, but as a candidate for the Presidency,
received his share, perhaps an undue
share, of epithets and opprobiu.ms. What
candidate for that office has not received
them ever since the days of Washington ?
and even his fair fame was not proof
against this kind of political usage and
warfare. Yet whoever before thought of
branding as conspiratoni and abettors of
assassination those who in their ephemeral
a-al thus contended for the success of
their political favorite? When the in
cumbent of the Presidential chair happens
to be a candidate, he is no better than
any other candidates, and his public life
and ftel.B then become the property of the
people, and, with those of anv 'other man,
are equally open to criticism and, if needs
be, condemnation. These are the inci
dents to which he hue thrown himself
amenable by his own free will and con
sent, and he it remembered there is no
coronet or crown at Washington to screen
the pablio acts ot' any men, be he Presi
dent, or be he private. These who would
have it otherwise had better go where
kings rule and subjects obey. It is a
homely phrase which says, ",Give the
devil his due," anti I will only add—give
the preacher his. VIGILANT'S.
Dusan: After many trials and tribu
lations I arrived hero in safety. Stopping
in Pittsburg I had an Opportunity of see
ing the great guns in process of manufac
ture, and; many of the iron works for
which that smoky town is celebrated.
Pittsburg needs three things. a patent
smoke lifter and 4006 condenser, a coat of
white paint, and a decent hotel. Having
taken passage on a small but neat steamer
for Cincinnati, we voyaged slowly 'lowa
the Ohio, passing Blaunerhamett's Lsl•ind,
which will always be a spot of interest. in
the night. Guayandotte, in the so-called
State of West Virginia, has suffered in the
war. It seams that in January. 1863, the
inhabitants gave an entertainment at
their houses to the Federal troops sta
tioned there. While they were enjoying
a ball, and untirely unsuspicinus of an
enemy, Jenkins' Confederate cavalry
made a descent upon the town and cap
tured and disper.ed nearly the whole
Federal force. As it was supposed that
the ball was a ruse, and an attack had
been planned by the citizens with the in
tention of bringing down the enemy's
cavalry.. the town was fired by a force af
terwards sent, and nearly 'tine-half des
troyed. .
Having been detained in Cincinnati
over night, we had en opportunity of visit
ing the splendid spent house and seeing
the Florence' in the "Ticket-of-Leave
Man," which was excellently performed,
though a Tittierille man whom we met on
the way. and ,who had seen the play in
the Titusville theater, could not appreci
ate it. We, never having been around the
world, felt our inferiority. Our party
created a sensation at the hotel, where we
ware nearly stared out of countenance by
the natives, two of them following us up
to the desk andratching the registration
of our names witintense and astonished
interest.
Crossing the river to Covington, we
stopped at what - we were assured by a
native was the "
"grandest hotel In the
place." We thought so, when we saw it.
The
,Kentucky Central railroad, from
Covington to Lexington., is itt very bad
order, owing to the great amount of flov
ernment transportation over it, during the
war. About thirty miles on the way we
were:detained by. a laud slide nearly ten
hours. giving na en opportunity of seeing
the totintry..Which is not admirable at
this point. Finally, the train from thi
south coming up, we changed trains, each
onetetoking In its destination. " The road

day, for pronouncing Pf l itsui Booth " a
nobleman and a gentleman.
Hoe. 8.8. Cox, of Ohio, is about to ro
move hill residence from Columbus to New
York city. Mr. Cox is a gentleman of in
tellectual culture, of sparkling wit, of
ganrous impulses, and of winning iniup
nem beeii a very snecessfttl poit&
tician, always outstripping hi] party asso
ciates on the same ticket, and always win
ning many Yates through his personal
popularity.
A letter to the Cincinnati Commercial
says "It is due to Sherman to testify
that, from whit I could see on my , ride
Arough North Carolina, meeting with
citisene and soldiers of all ranks, Sherman
seems to have conquered twice ; the second
time by magnanimity, and so effectually
that those I spoke with had 'already
coupled a name so hated by them 'with
sincere honor and reverence. Sherman,
by the South at least, seems likely to be
remembered neat to Lincoln as a pacifi
cator."
Mr. Speaker Colfax is going overland to
the Pacific, in company with three mem
bers of the Press. The Secretar3iof War
has given him Government authority. and
protection. The military comma - eiders on
the route ars instructed to tender him
every assistance and favor Re will be
guarded through' all the dangerous parts
of the route, if dangerous any of them
now remain. which is doubted. As an in
stance of the reckless and illegal way in
which the Secretary of War spends the
people's money, it. may be cited that the
entire expenses of this pleasure trip are
to be paid out of the Federal Treasury.
The Washington correspondent of the
N. Y. Ban* I oat, {Republican,) alluding
to the expected arrival of Gen. Sherman,
says that " it will soon be explained that
he had reasons for supposing that the
Governmen.f would agree to his terms, or
if not so, Ow, it would not object to their
consideration. It will hereafter eppea
that Gen. 'Sherman heard that 'tire steps
taken by Gen. Weitzel tosiards reconstruc
tion in Virginia—the calling the rebel
Legislattire together, .to.—were directly
authorised by Mr. Lincoln."
The New York liinss says the President
is said to he exceedingly annoyed at the
attacks made upon' Sherman, and will
tike an early opportunity to express his
high appreciation of his brilliant qualities
and achievemon to.

a German Democratic paper in Newark.
WM twice fired at through his window the
other night, and narrowly escaped assas
sination. The Mayor of Newark offers a
reward of $l,OOO for the attempted mur

be tried by court martial ; and if killed in
trying to catch him whether his body will

Some simple minded people are under
the impression that this country is subject
to a government of law. This is an ab
surd mistake. Edwin M. Stanton. Secre
tory of War, is the autocrat of these Fed
eral States. The other day, while the
duly constituted authoritie.4 of New York
were discussing as to the order of the
procession in which the metropolis was to
celebrate the obsequies of the late Peed
dent, Secretary Stantorisent sudden word
that he wanted things so and go, and the
New York committee men obeyed, and
hung their heads as" if they were sahanted
of • themselves for having dared to have
an opinion which had not first been sealed 1
with the Secretary's approval. few days
afterwards, in the same city, a firm of
photograph artists received permisaion
from the local authorities to take a picture
in the City Hall while the remains of Mr.
Lincoln lay there in state. They did so,
and produced a work of the same charac
ter as, but a thousand times more valua
ble and meritorious than, the moms of
similar ones which have been made.
Straightway the 'Secretary telegraphed an
.order directing somebody else " to go to
the photographers, seise, and destroy the
plates and any pictures and engravings
that may hive been made." Many re
monstrances and expostulatory represen
tations were made, but' the honorable bur;
glar was inexorable. He had the plunder
