gainst a re-organized oppression, whose
sole object is to remit the control of our
destinies to the contrivers of the rebell

in that, since Andrew Johnson affilia
ted with his early slanderers and our
constant enemies, his hand has been
laid heavily upon every earnest loyalist
in the South. History, the just judg
ment of the Present and the certain
confirmation of the Future, invites and
commands us to declare—
That, after rejecting his own remedies
for restoring the Union, he haslresorted
to the weapons of traitors to bririse and
beat down Patriots.
That, after' declaring that none but
loyal should govern the reconstructed
South, he has practised upon the max
im that none but traitors shall rule.
That, while in the North he has re
moved conscientious men from rice
and tilled many of the vacancies with
the sympathizers of treason, in the
South he has removed the proved and
trusted patriot and selected the equally
proved and convicted traitor.
That, after brave men who had fought
fer the old fia#'have been nominated for
positioni, their names have been.recall
ed and avowed rebels substituted.
That every original Unionist in the
South who stands fast to Andrew John
son's covenants from 1861 to 1865, has
•
been o..2..racised.
That he has corrupted the local courts
by offering premiums for defiance of the
laws' of Congress and by openly discour
aging,the observance of the oath against
treason.
That, while refusing, to punish one
single conspicuous traitor, though thou
sands had earned the penalty of death,
more than a thousand devoted Union
citizens have been murdered in cold
blood Since the surrender of Lee, and
in 'no case have their assassins been
brought to judgment.
That he has pardoned some of the
worst of the rebel criminals, North and
South, including some who have taken
human life under circumstances of un
paralleled atrocity.
That, while denouncing and fettering
the operations of the Freedmen's Bu
reau, he, with -a full ;knowledge of the
falsehood, has eharged that" the black
men are lazy and rebellious, and has_
concealed the fact that more whites
than blacks have been proteked and
fed by that noble organization ; and
that, while declaring that it was cor
ruptly managed and expensive to the
Government, he has connived at a sys-%I
tem of profligacy in the use of the pub
lie patronage and public Money wholly
without parallel, save when the trai
tors bankrupted the Treasury,and sought
to disorganize and scatter the army and
the hay, c, only to make it more easy to
capture i and destroy the Government.
That, while 'declaring against the M
-1
justice I f leaving eleven States unrep
resente( , he has refused to authorize the
liberal plan of Congress, simply because
it recognizes the loyal majority and re
fuses to perpetuate the traitor minority.
That in,every Stlite south of Mason
and -Dixon's line his t' policy" has
wrought. the most deplorable consequen
ces, social, moral and political.
It has` cnibohlened returned rebels to
threaten civil warm Maryland, Missou
ri, West - Virginia; and Tenne-see,.unless
the patriots who saved and sealed these'
States to the 01(1 liag surrender before
their arrogant demands.
It has corrnpted high 'State otliciak,
elected by Union men and sworn to en
tlirceithe laws against returned rebels,
and wale them the mere instruments
-of_ the tint hors of the rebellion.
it. has encouraged a new alienation
between the sections, and by impeding
emigration to the South, has erected for
midable barriers against free and friend- i
ly intercourse with our countrymen in
the North and the West.
It has alldwed the rebel :Foldiery to l
persecute the teachers of the colored
schools, and to burn the churches in
which the freedmen have worshipped
the living God.
That a system so Varbarous should
have culminated in the frightful riot at
Memphis, and the still more appalling
massacre at New Orleans, was as natu
ral as that a bloody war should flow from
the teachings of. John C. Calhoun and
Jefferson Davis.
Andrew• Johnson is responsible for
all these unspeakable crimes and cruel
ties. As he provoked, so he justifies
and applauds theta.
' Sending his agents and emissaries
into this refined and patriotic metropo
lis, to insist upon jmaking his reekless
policy a test upon a Christian people,
he forgot that the protection extended
to the 14th of August Convention in
Philadelphia was not only denied tothe
free people of New Orleans on the 30th
of July. when they assembled to discuss
how liet to protect'themselves, but de'-
tiled amidst the slaughter of hundreds
of innocent men.
No page in the record of his recent
outrages upon human justice and con
stitutional law, is more revolting than
that which convicts him of refusing to
arrest the preparations for that savage
carnival, and not only of refusing to
punish. Its authors, but of toiling to
throw the guilty responsibility upon the
unotrending and innocent freedmen.
The infatuated tyrant that stood ready
to crush his own people in Tennessee
when they were struggling to maintain
a Government erected by himself a
gainst his and their traitor persecutors,
was even more eager to illustrate his
savage policy, by clahing with the mo-t
despotic power the impenitent and re
vengeful rebels of New Orleans
Notwithstanding the heartless deser
tion and cruel persecution by Andrew
Johnson, in the States of Missouri, Ken
tucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, Ma
ryland and Delaware, democratic repub
lican principles—principles which the
fathers of the republic designed for all
America-are now making determined
battle with the oligarchical enemies of
free constitutional government ; 1111(11(y
the blessing of God these States will
soon range themselves in the line with
the former free States, and illustrate the
Wisdom and beneficence of the great
charter of American liberty, by their
increasing population, wealth and pros
perity:
Iu tlte remaining ten States, the seeds
of oligarchy planted in the Constitu

to lie a monster power. Recognition

want of governmental support. Oli
garchy matured its power with subtle
design. Its history, for eighty years, is
replete with unparalleled "injuries and
usurpation! It developed only the
agriculturaT localities—geographically
distinct from the free labor localities,
and less than one-third of the whojc---
with African slaves. It held four mill
ions of human heinzs as chattels, yet
made them the basis of unjust represen
tative power for themselves in Federal
ami State Governments to maintain
their enslavement.
It excluded millions of free white la
borers from the richest agricultural
lands of the world ; forced them to re
main, inactive and unproductive, on
the mineral, manufacturing and lumber
localities-L-comprising two-thirds of the
whole South, in square miles, and real
undeveloped wealth—simply because
these localities were; agriculturally too
poor for slave labor.
Condemned them to agriculture, on
this agricultural territory, and consign
ed them to unwilling ignorance and po
verty—by denying capital, and thus
strangling enterprise.
It repelled the capital, energy, will
and skill of the free States, from the
free labor localities, by unmitigated in
tolerance and proscription—thus guard
ing the approaches to their slave domain
against democracy.
Statute books groaned under despotic
laws against unlawful and insurrection
ary assemblies ; aimed at the constitu
tional guaranties of the right to peacea
bly assemble-and petition for redress of
grievances.
It proscribed democratic literature as
incendiary.
It nullified the constitutional guaran
ties of freedom of speech and the press.
It deprived citizens of the other States
of the "privileges and immunities" in
these States—an injury and usurpation
alike unjust to Northern citizens and
destructive of the best interests of the
States themselves.
Alarmed at the progress of democracy
in the face of every discouragement, at
last itj sought immunity by secession
and War.
The heart sickens with the contem
plation of the four years that followed
—forced loans, impressmeuts, conscrip
tions, with bloodhounds and bayonet,
murder of aged Union men,', who had
longloid aside the implements of labor,
but-had been summoned anew to the
field by the conscription of their sons,
to support children and grand children
reduced from comfort to the verge of
starvation ; the slaughter of noble
youths, types of physical manhood,
forced into an unlactly war against those
with whom they were identified by ev
ery interest; long months of incarcera
tion iu hostiles, banishment from homes
and hearthstones ;—are but a partial re
cital of the long catalogue, of horrors.
But democracy, Northand South com
bined, defeated them. They lost. What
gird hey lose': The cause of oligarchy ?
They lost African slavery, by-name on
ly. Soon as the tocsin of war ceased—
soon as the clang of arms was hushed
—they raise the cry of " immediate ad-'
init4sien," and with that watchword
seek to organize under new forms a con
test to perpetuate their unbridled sway.
They rehabilitate their sweeping con
trol of all lucal and State organizations.
The Federal Executive, easily seduced,
yields a willing obedience to his old
masters. Aided by his unscrupulous
disregard, of Constitution and laws, by
his merciless proscription of true demo
cratic opiniOn, and by all his appliances
of despotic power, they now defiantly
enter the lists in the leyal North, and
seek to wring from free Men an endorse
ment of their wicked designs.
Every -foul agency is at work-ha ac
complish this result. Falsely profess=
ing to assent to the abolition of slavery,
they are contriving to continue its de
testable power, by legislative acts a
gainst pretended vagrants. They know
that any form of servitude will answer,
their unholy purpose. They pronounce
the four years' war a brilliant sword
scene in the great revolutionary drama.
Proscriptive public sentiment holds high
carnival, and, profiting by the example
of the Presidential pilgrim, breathes out 1
threa ten ings and slaughter against- loy
alty, ignores and denounces all legal re
straints, and assails with the tongue of
malignant slander the constitutionally
chosen representatives of the people.
To still the voice of liberty—danger
ous alone to tyrants—midnight confla
grations, assassins and murders, in open
day, are called to their aid. A reign of
terror through all these ten States makes
loyalty stand silent in the presence of
treason, or whisper in bated breath.—
Strong nen hesitate openly to speak for
liberty and decline to attends Conven
tion at 'hiladelphia for fear of destruc
tion.
Rut all Southern men are not yell
awed into submission- to treason; and
we have assembled from all these States,
determined that liberty, when endan
gered, shall find a mouthpiece, and that
the " Government of the-people, by the
people, for the people, shall not perish
from the earth." We are here to con
sult together how best to provide for a
Union of truly Republican States; to
seek to , relume thirty-six star.; on the
old flag. We are here to sec that ten of
the States are not opaque bodies, paling
their ineffectual fires beneath the gloom
and darkness of oligarchical tyranny
and oppression. We wish them to be
brilliant stars; emblems of constitu
tional liberty ; glittering orbs, spark
ling with the life-giving principles of
the model Republic'.—fitting adorn
ments of the glorious banner of free
dom.
our last and only hope is in the unity
and fortitude of the loyal people of A
merica, in the support and vindication
of the Thirty-Ninth Congress,- and in
the election of a controlling Union nut
jority in the succeeding or Fortieth Con
gress.
- While the new article amending the
National Constitution offers the most
liberal conditions to the authors (4 the
rebellion, and does not come up to the
measure of our expectations, we believe
its ratification would be the commence
ment of a complete and_lasting protec
tion to all our people; and therefore we
accept it as the best present remedy, and
appeal to our brothers and friends in the
North and the West to make it their
watchword in the coming.election.
The tokens are auspicious or over
whelming succes-4. However little the
verdict of the ballot box - may affect the
reckless man in the Presidential chair,
we cannot doubt that the traitors and
sympathizers he has encouriczed will
recognize that verdict as the ,west, in
dication that the mighty p6wer which
crustietrthe relwllion is still aline,=and
that those who attempt to oppose or de
fy it will do so at the risk or their own
destruction.
