A State Convention will bo held in the

the purpose of nominating a candidate for

the Union.
The ordeal of war has tried the strength
of our Government. Its fire has purified the
nation. The defence of the nation's life has
demonstrated w.o were its friends. The
principles vindicated in the field must bo
preserved in the councils of the nation. The
arch enemy of freedom must be struck once
more. And all the friends of our Govern

the Union, in our late struggle, are earnestly
requested to unite in sending delegates to
represent them in said Convention.

ed that a Courily convention be called to
meet in Rbeem's Hell on Monday, Febru

iness of the Convention will be to elect a

than to call attention to the importance of
the approaching campaign, and the absolute
necessity of a perfect and thorough organi
zation, that we may do our DR* , °”-

A. K. RHEEM,
Chairman County Committee.
We place at the head of our column this
week the name of MAJ. GEN. GEARY as
the candidate of the Union Party for Gov
ernor subject to the decision of the State
Convention and we do so in the full belief
and hope that it, will remain there until the
second Tuesday of October. GEN. GEARY'S
prospect for the nomination are daily be
coming brighter and we think there is hard
ly a doubt that he will go into convention
with a majority of the delegates. But few
of the counties have as yet held their con
ventions but from the tone of our exchanges,
from all parts of the state, we infer that the
General's chances are much better than
those of any other candidate that has yet
been named. Ho will almost certainly have
the support of the counties in the Southern
and interior portions of the State, whilst
his chances in Philadelphia we think are
quite as good as those of any othBr. Alle
gheny of course supports her distinguished
citizen, Gen. Moorehead, and Bedford and
Franklin give their voice in favor of that
able and fearless patriot, lion. John Cessna,
but all of them recognize the merit and availa,
bility of the soldier and statesman whose
claims wo advocate. indeed we have no
indications of hostility to him any where,
but on the contrary the signs of a wide
spread and increasing popularity aro every
where apparent. This augurs well for an
earnest and harmonious campaign and
gives an assurance of a complete triumph
for GEN. GEARY at the polls.
The Volunteer of last week, in a leadec de
voted to a wholesale denunciation of the
statesmen of the nation, who do not cling
still to the ghastly skeleton of Democracy,
get off the following:
Who are found in the seats formerly oc
cupied by Southern statesmen ? Alas I no
bopy. They are empty—empty because
such creatures as SUMNER, WADE, WILSON
and other disunionists, prefer anarchy and
desolation to peace and union.
That the seats of traitors are empty and
will remain so for some time isn't a great
source of grief to any except those who need
their assistance to ruin what is left us of our
country. We remember, when they wore
tilled by men who ranted about Abolitionists
in the most approved style; who carried
knives and pistols as if they were brig
ands ; who beat Senators with canes when
they found their arguments troublesome ;
who spent their vacation in'organizing arid .
leading hordes of armed ruffians to the ballot
]boxes of a neighboring Territory to proven
its inhabitants yoting contrary to the inter
est al the cause they upheld ; and who were
quite as zealous in their support of the prin
ciples of the Democracy as they were in any
other wickedness. Naturally these men de
veloped into traitors. They sat in these now
empty seats and whilst drawing their salaries
from the Government plotted its overthrow.
They drafted a new constititution, arranged
the affairs of a now Confederacy, perfected
every scheme that their brains could devise
to overthrow our free institutions and by
usurpation and crime wrest from the people
the control of the Government. And yet our,
neighbor seriously laments thatthesp great
est of earths' scoundrels have no successors.
Who would succeed them? Whom would
you have to fill their empty seats ? Are there
two men in any State south of the Kentucky
border who possess the mental endowments
requisite for a respectable Senator, who have
not - been -- prominently identified — With trea
son ? If' there are lot us' have their names
and a record of some Of their loyal nets.
Why even in Tennessee, Andrew Johnson
stood alone and does any one believe that,
had he' remained a private citizen till now,
he Would have received one vote in ten from
the present white residents of that State ?
Rebellion hadn't latiteid a year, until every
Man of inatience, wealth and position in .the
South was as firmly identified with it as he
was with the affairs nfhis own' family and

seats of southern Statesmen will be empty
and (. peace And union" will not be disturb
quite so soon as they would be with their
former occupants.
The Volunteer came to us last week, so
much improved in general appearance as to
be difficult of recognition. Itis considerably
enlarged; has an entire suit of new type, is
printed by a power press on paper of an ex
cellent quality and presents a very beautiful
appearance. The proprietors deserve great
credit for the spirit of enterprise they mani
fest and wo sincerely hope that the money
they have expended in fitting up their es
tablishment may prove an investment that
will ensure them a lucrative business for the
remainder of their lives. Although we have
little, politically, in common with the Edi
tors of the Volunteer we have always re
garded them as high-minded and honorable
gentlemen and most efficient laborers for the
success of their party. Theymerit and doubt
less will receive its hearty support andcotron-
This latest improvement among our °x
i:lac-flanges reminds us of the increased effort
on part of the journalists of our own State
during the past year to make their respective
journals fully up to the requirements of the
times. There are but very few, among the
scores of exchanges on our table, that have
not been enlarged and improved within the
last year. The Philadelphia Press, the Ledg
er, Pittsburg Gazette, Harrisburg Telegraph,
Lebanon Courier, Franklin Repository and
Valley Spirit are the few of those on which
our eye falls at present and which present
an appearance indicating quite a large ex
penditure of money on their part for the
pleasure and gratification of their readers.
We have no doubt that they will all be More
than compensated by a largely increased list
of promptly paying subscribers.
We published last week the report of the
Committee of the State Senate appointed
last winter to investigate certain alleged ,
fraudulent transactions by some prominent'
members of " the third House" The report
shows us the conduct of throe prominent
Democratic politicians in rather an unfavor
able light. These gentlemen, W. 11. Witte,
George Northrop and Albert S. Schofield,
induced a certain Mr. Jackson to place in
their hands the paltry suns of $30,000, to be
used for the purpose of getting through the
Legislature, a bill for the benefit of the At
lantic and Great Western Railroad. Last
winter this little arrangement leaked out in
sonic way and after the appointment of the
present committee $25,000 of the money was
returned and the remaining $5,000 was nice
ly divided among these gentlemen. No
money was paid to any member of the leg
fshiture fur his vote nor was it necessary to
:,c-ce,o the passage 01 the bill In quootion.
Thu whole scheme appears to have been for
the purpose of putting $lO,OOO into each gen
tleman's pocket.
These three honest and incorruptible gen
tlemen are the most prominent Democratic .
politicians in the State. Witte has been a
chronic candidate for the nomination fur
Governor of long standing. lle never was
notorious for his honesty and so thr as he is
concerned the affair isn't surprising. Scho
field is somewhat of Witte's style and wo
shouldn't wonder much he was accustomed
to that sort of performance. Northrop is a
much better man, generally, than the other
two and we are a little surprised Jo find him
playing such game so boldly. In 1861 he
canvassed the State for the Democracy,
speaking here in company with ,Gov. Bigler
and 11ev. Henry Clay Dean. lie is a man
of very considerable ability and looks like
a dignified, high, minded gentleman and
being immeasurably superior to Bigler-and
Dean combined, impresseli every one who
saw and heard him favorably. Last fall he
.opposed Judge Kelley for Congress in the
fourth.District_ but was defeated. Whether
lie was hard up, by reason of his expenditures
in that canvas and wanted to replenish at
time cost of the Railroad Company, or wheth
er his associates for the last two years have
made him a swindler we do not know ;—it
is certain however that this transaction wont
make him much 'reputation . for integrity.
What a nice little time there will be if the
Democracy ever got into power.
The Governor's Message
Gov. CURTIN'S Message, given entire on
the outer form of to-day's paper, takes up a
good deal of our space, but it will amply
repay perusal. The excellent financial con
dition of the State, and the recommendation
for the repeal of all laws levying a tax on
real estate fur State purposes, will be espe
cially gratifying to every tax payer. Dur
ing the year 1865, the State debt was reduced
nearly two millions. The indebtedness of
the State, and the assets held by the Com
monwealth, were thus stated in round nun:-
hers, on the Ist December, 1865:
Total Indebtednem Of the State,
Total nasals of the State,
Actual Italbeietlnosa,
The main portion of the Message is taken
up with a recital of the -brilliant record of
Pennsylvania during the late Rebellion —a
record of which every loyal Pennsylvanian
has reason to be proud. The Governor's
patriotism and interest in, and care for, the
soldiers r and widows:and orphans of soldiers )
does equal honor to his hoed and heart.
GENERAL GRANT.—The Washington cor
respondent of the New Bedford Mercury
thus describes General Grant as he appears
on tho streets of the capital: "General
Grant rides about town in a one horse bug
gy just like any other man. I saw him on
F street on Saturday. The top of his buggy
was turned down, and he sat in the carriage
alone ; (smoking cigar of course,) with as
little' concern as if assassins were never
known. He is quite ""a horseT joakiiy, and
doesn't allow any team to pass him on the
road—if ho can help it. Think of Welling
ton, or Napoleon, or our own General Scott
Wyatt, appearing on the street in a buggy,
and driving his own horse! And yet Gen.
Grant has commanded larger armies, fought
more battles, won more victories, and cap
tured more cannon than either of them.
JURY COMMISSIONEAS.,--There is a bill
before the - Legislature of this State to author
ize the election of Jury Commissioners in
each county to draw Jurors. The plan is
to have those Commissioners chosen as'Elec

Unparalleled Effrontery
' The following from Brownlow's Kno4.-
vBIO Whig, expresses, in 'a nutshell,. the un
blushing effrontery of Bmrebels :
. .
" Six millions of Whit& people, without a
shadow of a pretext, engaged in a:struggle.
to overthrow. a Government, and with - it'
'twenty millions of whites, and-four millions
of blacks. They waged:u terrible.war, char!.'
acterized by a fiendish . barbarism n , ever
equaled before since the beginning of time.
They caused an expense of four thousand
millions of money, to the nation. They
murdered fifty thousand of the soldiers of
Government by starvation and cold, deny
ing them fire by winter and shelter in the
summer. They burned cities and spread
pestilence; filled the country with widows
and orphans ; demoralized the Churches,
and blasphemed the name of God ; and now
aslc to vote and rule the country, as they had
formerly done !"
Yes, we have men in the North who be
lieve these rebels are saints, and complain
that these men aro not restored to all their
former rights and privileges, without any
evidence of repentance on their part. The
record of this causeless rebellion should stamp
the rebels of the South with eternal infamy.
They should bo thankful that they are per
mitted to live in a country they put forth all
their energies to destroy.
They Know their Men
The following,• which shows that the
Southern leaders thoroughly know their
men, recently appeared in correspondence,
from the South. They comprehend North
ern Democrats, and will be apt to be deceiv
ed to their sorrow in "Andy" Johnson.—
The letter says :
In the stage between Augusta and Mil
ledgeville, I rode with two gentlemen of
considerable local weight and prominence,
who were both anti-Secessionists in 1860-'6l.
They talked of the approaching election,
and of its ,prouable action in redihtricting
the State for representatives. " Well, Col
.aid the voumzer. himp.air ...ma of
over forty years—" Well, Colonel, what will
be our proper course when we are once more
fully restored to the Union '1" The answer
came, after a moment's consideration—"We
must strike hands with the Democratic par
ty of the North, and manage them as we
always have." There was a pause, while
we rattled down the bill, and then the ques
tioner responded —" That's just it; they here
ready enough to give us control of the govern
ment if we gape them the offices, agil I reckon
they've not changed eery much yet." There
was then the conversation on other matters;
but half an hour later, after a moment of
silence, the Colonel suddenly resumed :
" Yes, sir, our duty is plain ; we shall be
without weight, now that Slavery's gone,
unless wo do join hands with them ; Andy
Johnson will want a re-election, and the
united Democratic party must take him up;
it shall be a fair division—we want the power
and they want the spoils."
Toz PENNSYLVANIA M LI TI A.—The IN.-
port of Brig. Gen. Todd, Inspector General
of Pennsylvania Militia, is Minim roady for
prooclicatiOn. It is sad exhibit for a -
monwealth as great as that of Pennsylvania.
Out of sixty-six counties, twenty have thus
far neglected to make any return of persons
liable to military ',lay, and have, in fact,
treated the enrolling act of May 4th 1864,
with supreme contempt. In the counties
which have made returns, the number en
rolled is one hundred and fifty-four thou
sand one hundred and three,' the number
exempted thirteen thousand two hundred
and thirty-five, and the number liable to
duty one hundred and forty thousand eight
hundred and sixty-eight. If the rato of these
is applied- to the rqrnainder of the State,
being one in twelve of the population, it
will show an estimated militia force of two
hundred and forty-seven thousand seven
hundred and sixty-nine in the whole of
Pennsylvania. The Inspector General says
that it will probably require $lOO,OOO to
accomplish a perfect organization, but the
laws are incongruous and inconsistent, and
the militia acts "Dave descended from had
to worse, until the very mention of the sub
ject has become a reproach and an invita
tion for mockery and scorn." The Inspec
tor recommends, therefor 4, a new bill 011
the subject to take the place of all antecedent
legislation
REM CP or C 11.0111E1158 unu .—The Com
mittee of Ways and ?deans have reported
favorably an act fur the relief of certain citi
zens of Chambersburg and vicinity, whose
property was destroyed by the rebels. This
act recites the serious loss which wdisustain
ed by a peaceful community, and claims for
such community, the generous consider ation
of the State. It then appropriates $500.000 to
the people, to be paid to the sufferers pro rota
upon the valuation of their losses. This val
uation is to be made by three disinterested
appraisers, not residents of Franklin county,
to be appointed by the Court of Common
Pleas of Dauphin county. The remainder
of tho"bill provides for the manner of pun- .
ishing frauds, and throws s' . uck, , salegards a
round the disbursement as will insure a just
and fair division of the money. A clause is
also inserted which authorizes the State to
obtain the amount ($500,000), from the Gen
eral Government, should Congress pass any
bill to compensate the' people for losses sus
tained.

TILE SANCY".DIAMOND.—The history
of this diamond (weight fifty-four carats) is
very curious. Nicolas Ilarlai, Signeur of
Saucy, its possessor, wishinglo raise money
upon, it for the benefit of his friend, Henry
IV., in,trustod, .to. the. care .of a.. .faithful
s ervant. The man was beset by robbers
and murdered. His master recovered the
body, and, calculating on his late vassal's
fidelity, opened the stomach, where, as lie
expected, ho found his lost treasure. Ho
then carried out his intention, pledged it to
the Jews, and was never afterward able to
redeem it. In 1649 it belonged to Henri
etta Maria, Dowager Queen of England,
from whom it passed to the Duke of York.
After his abdication, the unlucky James
sold it to Louis IV. for $25,000. During
the memorable days of September; 1792 i -it
was stolen with the rest of the regalia ; it
reappeared in 1888, when the Prince Paul
Demidoff bought it from an agent of the
Bourbons for $75,000. Last winter it was
on view at Messrs.. Garrard's, in London;
and finally it hasteturned to its native land,
being purchased fdr $20,000 by Sir Janie
setjee Jeejeabhoy, of Bombay.

Our Revenue System.
The hist Congress authorized a Commis
sion to, investigate and scrutinize tlie,whole
subject of Taxation, with a view to the sim
plification of our Revenue system, so as to
render our taxes less Multititrious and less
burdensome That COMmission has made,
its first report. The changes they prepese
are numerous, importanc.and, we believe, in
tho'mein, judicious. Among them are the
following
1. An exemption of all incomes below
$l,OOO froni the Income Tax.
2. A reduction of the tax on Distilled
Liquors from $2 to $1 per gallon.
3. A remission of all taxes now levied
on Wearing Apparel. •
4. A repeal of the taxes now levied on
Pig Iron ($2 40 per tun,) Ooal (six cents per
tun,) and crude Pelt. ,leum ($1 per gallon.
5. A repeal of all taxes now levied on
Books, Magazines and Pamphlets ; leaving
the, present taxes on Paper, Leather, &c.,
untouched.
G. A reduction by one-half of the duties
now levied on Home Manufacturing gener
ally.
7.. A repeal of all taxes now -levied on
repairs of engines, cars, carriages, ships, &c.
8. A repeal of all taxes embodied in
schedule A. of the Internal Revenue Act of
last session except those on Billiard. Tables.
9. A reduction of the tax now levied on
brokers' sales of stocks from $6 per $l,OOO
to $1 per $l,OOO.
10. An increase of the tax on raw Cot
ton from 2 to 5 cents per pound.
The Wheat Crop of 1865
The papers from the East and the West
continuo to discuss 010 000dit,ton of the
lmg,e stocks of wheat stored in the ware
houses at Chicago, and the conclusion ap
pears to be quite unanimous that this grain
is wholly unfit for consumption, and that
its presenCe anywhere the coming season
will be productive of great mischief to the
public health, particularly if the cholera
prevails. We have information from Chi
cago that fully confirms all that we have
said with respect to this grain. We are told
that so general was the disaster that Wel
the crop of Illinois and Indiana that no num
ber one wheat came to Chicago. The Board
of Trade of that city resolved to change the
number, and gave what was before styled
number two the rank of number one. The
wet harvest extended everywhere in that
region, and as the wheat grown was ntaur
ally soft, it was more liable to injury from
dampness. Our information is that there is
no dry, hard, sound wheat in Chicago, unless
it be a little brought from the northward—
from Wisconsin lowa or Minnesota, where
the crops were a and the harvest dry.
There is a large fleet of sail craft and
propellers lying at Chicago this winter and
holders of this damaged wheat intend to
ship as early as possible, to get the foul stuff
of their hands before the warns weather
makes iCwholly worthless. They will push
this grain to Buffalo, Oswego and other
ports below, and make the best disposition
of it that they can, provided the health au
thorities do not interfere.
A New York grain dealer says this wheat
will not find a market there in the spring.
Ile adds that the Chicago wheat now lying
in New York is badly heated and nearly
spoiled already, and he wants no more of
that grain at any price. It is now pretty
well understood that the health authorities
of New York will take action to exclude
this rotten damaged wheat from coining to
that port. If that is done then of course
Buffalo and Oswego will decline to receive
it, and it will go back opnn no, land.: of tho
West to enrich the soil or be fed to the
swine.
Bonner's Stable
The N ew York correspondent of the Bos
ton ✓uurnal says :
''l had the pleasure the other day of visit
ing Mr. Bonner's stables at his country seat
in Morrisiana, and seeing his wonderful 'stud
of horses. Ilis stables are worthy a visit as
they exhibit all the modern improvements
in the training grooming and feeding of
horses. !They are not allowed to cat except
at regular hours of the day, and then they
are fed with all the system which pertains
to a well ordered family. The horses are
kept muzzled during the hours when not
feeding, and thus can only be kept in 'con
dition.' The three horses that he has at
his Morrissana estate, are Lantern, Lady
Palmer and Peerless. Lantern is a large
bay horse, and is one of the fastest trotting
horses to' the pole in the country. Lady
Palmer is very fleet, but Peerless, an iron
gray mare, is the wonder of the age. She
has made the fastest time to a wagon of any
horse in the world, having made a mile in
2.23 1-4. Ou the breaking out of the war,
she was owned by a banker in Baltimore
Supposing that the ordinance of secession
would be passed by the Legislature of Mary
land, and that everything would go to smash,
Peerless was sold. Mr. Bonner paid for her
$5,500 in gold. lie has refused $65,000
for this horse. He has been requested to
name his price above this figure. Mr. Bon
ner has but one answer, and that is that
Peerless is not for sale. It is something to
own the fastest horse in the world; - •
—The New York Observer gives the follow
ing testimony to the spirit now animating
the States lately in Rebellion :
"An intelligent Southern gentleman native
of the South, with all his interests and sym
pathies there, writes to us of the prevalence
of anti-Union sentiment, especially among
the clergy. He Bays that the piety of the
mouth was opposed to Secession, but the
clergy were generally in favor of it ; that
many of them entered the army as soldiers,
and such ministers are notmow acceptable.
Many of this class, he says, have become
immoral,.und do not desire to return to the
ministry. He thinks it is best to be very
cautious about rouniontin the Church or the
State.

WASIIIN(iiON D. C. Feb. 5. 18
The exhaustive debate spoken of in my
lasi upon the proposed amendment to the
Constitution, in the House of Representatives
culminated finally on Wednesday, "the 31st
ult., by the passage of ..the following joint
resolution, It differs from that originally
offered by Mr. Stevens, only in the omission
of all reference to direct taxes confining its
scope solely to the basis of representation :
JOINT RESOLUTION proposing to amend this
Constitution of the United States.
Resolved by the Senate and Roust of
Representatives of the United States of
America in Congress assembled, (two thirds
of both houses concurring,) That the fol
lowing article he proposed to the Legisla
tures of the several States as an amendment
to the Constitution of the United States,
which, when ratified by three-fourths of
said Legislatures, shall be valid as part of
said Constitution, viz:
ARTICI.g -
Representatives shall be apportioned
among the several States which may be in
cluded Within,this Union according to their
respective numbers, counting; the whole
number of persons in each State, excluding
Indians not taxed : Provided, That when
ever the elective franchise shall be denied
or abridged in any State on account of race
or color, all persons therein of such race or
color shall be excluded from the basis of
representation.
The vote on the passage of the above was
120 to 45, being nine more than the requisite
two thirds, although some of the members
elected from Union Districts, voted with the
democrats, in the negative. 1 wish you
could have listened to some of the speeches
in support of this amendment, and heard
the winding up of the exciting discussion
by that old war horse, Thaddeus Stevens.
Without reference to his allusions to the
dictatorial tone assumed on the subject by
the authority "at the other end of the aye
nuo" it can safely be said that his argument
equalled the grandest efforts of patriotic
eloquence ever enunciated during the strug
gle for American independence. It is truly
surprising the remarkable . influence this
man wields among his peers. Whether the
fact of his being educated for almost a quar
ter of a century in the national councils, or
notwithstanding the ripeness of his years
keeps pace with the progrossive spirit of the
age, exercises any bearing upon his posi
tion as leader of the House, I cannot state
but certain it is that whenever Mr. Stevens
rises .to Bpeals, whatever.confusion may ..be
existing on the floor is instantly huilied,
and the wrapt attention shown by theses. of,
upturned faces demonstrates his almodt
omnipotent power, and the great estimation
iu which he is held. What a comfortable re
flection to the loyal people of Pennsylvania,
that when this, their,representative (Loa
speak, he but echoes'tliesentlments of all
well wishers of the Republic end advocates
of the eternal justice I The effect of the
amendment in question is to simplify the
the subject of universal suffrage, by making
it the interest as well as the duty of the
States, to do away with all distinctions be
tween -their citizens and to co_mplete_the
mighty revolution that only really began at
the close of the rebellion.
In the Senate Mr. Wilson introduced an
important bill for the organization of a
uniform National militia throughout the
country. It provides, among other things,
for enrolling all the able bodied citizens,
and those who have declared their inten
tions of bec6ming `such; between twenty
and forty five, in all the States and Terri
tories; any number,-or the whole of whom
may be 'Called on t by the President in case
of foreign wari-or insurrection, to serve'sis
years or during the continuance of hostilities;
that each-Congressional district shall have
at least- ono organited regiment (Ind that
the work of organizing the entire force shall
bo managed-by a War Department bureau
to beereated. The bill was referred to'ilM
Military Cominittce, And it is to be hoped
gill be_reported_faverably. 'lt is =desirable
that this country should be 'on 'a complete
war footing - not only thiough the contin
gency of the imbrOglios,on tbe,Dio Grande
terminating unpliwantly, but in order that
our military-educltioniacquired bya-courso
of Practical,training, may not become latent'
and that we may be, prepared for any- emer
geney that requires the.exercise of the same.
In the same obaniber 'Mr. Morril'of time

calls for the repeal of the charters of Wash

Levy:courfrof the county. It also provides
fOr the appointment of three District Of
Cohn - AMR commissioners, a private secretary
to the President for the District, comptroller
collector .of taxes SLc. and for a complete
police and' fire department. The principal
Alders are to be appointed by the President
holding office at his pleasure and the subor
dinates by tho commissioners—the latter to
be citizens of the District over twenty-five
year's old.
I omitted to speak last week, of the Sol
diers' convention which hold session for
three days,lin this city and adjourned sine die
on last Wednesday. Probably r.o body of
mon ever met under such solemn auspices.
The convention was exceedingly largo—in
cluding representatives of every rank, from
the Major General down to the private, and
from nearly all the States. The accompany
ing resolutions adopted by the body show
the character of their deliberations, and are
well calculated to stir even the hearts of
those who had been opposing them, and es
pecially to arouse the gratitude of a great
people whose institutions they, and they
alone had saved from destruction. Stirring
speeches, by Senate r Wilson, Gcnls. Butler,
Banks,Minks and other distinguished officers
were elivered, showing that the demands
of the soldiers aro not the mere vagaries of
agitated:minds; and must be respected. Tho
individual who could look down lino- oval
from the galleries of the House of Represen
tatives upon these soldier delegates—many
of whom had been dreadfully mutilated or
wounded, and all of whom bore the marks
of their numerous services—must have been
lower than 'human- "a wretch whom it
were base flattery to call a coward." Here
are the resolutions which' prove that the
men who composed the convention, never
lost sight of the principle for which they
were lighting, and that now returned to their
homes, and mustered out of the service,
they proclaim their determination that the
fruit achieved by their valor and endurance
shall not be lost, to themselves and posterity.
Rrsolred, That we mom:say protest
against the admission to a seat in Congress
of any Representative or Senator from
States lately in rebellion who is unable to
take What is known as the " test oath," as
it would be an insult to every Union soldier
in the Republic to allow men whose hands
are yet red with the blued of their comrades
to legislate fir them, and fir the wives and
children of the gallant dead who fell on the
battle-field or were atrociously starved in
Southern prisons.
Resolved, That in the o inion of this cc n
volition no State lately i rebellion should
be allowed to come balnnto practical work
ing relations with 1(41t1 States until they
have given unmistakeable evidence of a de
sire to cherish the Union and protect the
great principles of civil liberty they so late
ly attempted to destroy.
Res./,ea, That we fully concur in the
,ftpti repeated declaration of the President
of th,, united States that treason is a
opium and should be punished," end we have
been waiting most inquitiently for a prac
tical application of the principle to the
lea , !ers of the late rebellion.
Resole:,(, 'flint this convention, com
posed tti it i= of soldiers and sailors, repre
senting many of the loyal States of this
Union, desires to unite in bearing its testi
mny against the horrid atrocities of the
loaders of the late so : called Confederate
States and ant, ; that its heafi and. front,
Jefferson Davis, should be held up to the
ex.ecration of all persons of all nations who
are imbued with the principles of Christi.-
anity, or of common humanity, and we
here declare it : s our settled conviction that
he should be tried by a military - commission
for atrocious acts committed in violation of
all the principles of civilized warfare, and
we hereby request our Senators and Repre
sentatives in Congress to pass a resolution
calling upon the President to speedily con
vene a military commission, composed of
our ablest general officers, for thalami.,"
Great preparations are being made by the
joint Congressional Cotntnittee, of which the
Hon,: Solomon Foot is chairman, fur paying
appropriate ceremonies to the memory of
Abraham Lincoln on the 1.21.11 of this month,
which will be the anniversary of the birth
day ,if the departed hero. Tili., oration is to
be pronounced by the [lon. Geo. Bancroft,
of New York, in the hall of the limier; and
the noble task of describing the character of
his illustrious subject, will be fulfilled by
the great historian before an audience com
posed of the intelligence of the land. The
details or t h e arrangements are not yet emu
laded, lint the committee are earnestly en
gaged in plims for giving as much effect to
the testimonial as possible.

liesidu there a number of stores, dwelhngs
barns and warehouses in ashes. A large
amount of merchandize and furniture has
been consumed. The .destruction of prop
erty will amount to $250,000. The insur
ance companies do not suffer a tithe of the
loss. The Now York hotel, a frame house,
which had lately been used as a headquarters
for courtezans, was set on fire on the morn
ing of the first. A billiard and whiskey sa
loon adjoining, communicated the flames to
McGough & Brigham's unfinished brick
block and Stranford' 3 hall, the wind blowing
in that direction. From this point, the fire
roaring and leaping irons roof to roof, swept
down Doe and Liberty streets defying all
efforts to subdue it until twenty houses and
more had been reduced to smouldering ru
ins. Notwithstanding the great rapidity of
the flames, accelerated by a strong wind, the
bold and constant efforts of a thousand will
ing hands rescued from destruction most of
the goods with , which the stores wore filled.
The streets were obstructed with piles of
hardware, dry-goods, groceries and furniture
which made a barricade all around the fire,
but at a safe distance from the'eentral point
of repulsion.
There .was not a steam engine on the
ground. There is none in town and never
was. The men who have lost most heavily
in buildings by the fire have, always been
opposed to fire Engines. Either of the Car-

PROMPT AND HONORABLE ACTION.
—We clip the following handsome notice of
the prompt way in which some of our Phil
adelphia Insurance Companies do business,
from the Crawford Democrat, Meadville,
Pa.
As our readers well remember, the front
of Messrs. Gill & Shryock's hardware build
ing, which is one of the best in town, was
greatly damaged by the firo,of the 26th of
last month. The building being insured in
the Philadelphia Ente7:prise Company, Wm.
McLaughlin, Esq., the agent of that com
pany, called on Messrs. Gill & Shrycock the
morning after the'fire, and authorized them
to have the damages repaired. As the large
patios ofglass in the windows had nearly all
been broken by the heat, and as they wore
of a very costly kind, some necessary delay
was occasioned before the glass could be
brought on from New York. However,
about one week ago the work of repairing
was completed, the bill made out and placed
in the hands of Mr. McLaughlin, the agent
for the Enterprise, who at once forwarded
the same to Philadelphia for approval ; and
in just four days from the mailing of Mr.
McLaughlin's letter, Messrs. Gill & Shry
ock recei‘ ed a sight draft covering their
claim. There was no halting or grumbling,
or higglint on the part of the agent, or the
company, but the money was paid promptly
and honorably at the earliest possible day.
Sam]. A. Humrich, Esq., is agent for the
Enterprise company, for, this place. Office
