    iO BSTEOKS' CONVENTKtt
AT PITTSBURG,
"To give anything likes definite, con

ingi would be Iruposible, and a detailed
one we have not apace for. Wo appen
ded the resolutions as framed by the
Committee ot 33 as being the most im
portant part of tho action ot the Con
vention. Gen. Fisher, from the com
mittee, reported the following resolutions
Which were unanimously adopted amid
great cheers,
Whbukas, We the rcprcscutatives of
tne soldiers ana sailors ot 1 ennsylvama
assemble iu convention, in obedience to
. a oall rcoognized and formerly acted
upon throughout tho Common wealth,
having in remembrance the Bufferings
and trials endured by the soldiers and
sailors of the Union in their successful
struggle against the citrantio rebellion,
and being delormiued to perpetuate tho
great principles established by our arms
' and sanctihea by the blood ot our tel
low-comriiues, uo resoive
1. That wo return to tho Omnipotent
ltuler ol the universo our sincoro and
heartfelt thanks for the crowning vietoiy
vouchsafed to our efforts against n rebel
lion which usd ioi its object the destruc
tion of our great Ueptibliu.
2. That tho tender earn exercised by
the Government and ibo people for the
remains of our martyred heroes, and for
their widows and orphans, commands
our warmest giati.ude,
3. Thai it is contrary to public policy
and subversive ol tho great principles,
won by patriotic blood, to permit nny to
bold cilices ot honor or profit under the
general government who by word or
deed embarrassed the Union armios, or
cast odium on the cause for which they
fought.
4. That the soldiers of- Pennsylvania
should organize in their respective coun
ties to take care that tho triumph of our
army be not fruitless, and the just results
of our great endeavors remain ungather
cd by concessions of any of the material
points at Issue in tho struggle tp the de
feated parly, or by yielding advantages
fairly won j and we propose the follow
ing platform as the basis ot organiza
tion :
5. That such treatment should bo ay
corded to the defeated foe as the most
chivalriu magnanimity requires, but
without yielding a prnuiplo uomprnmis
ing the right, or above all deserting nn
ally.
(j. That such nnd so many guaran
ties shall be demanded from the South,
a,,. i mtAntnr'itnfl in l)i. Vnlimml
nii'l iiivwijfvbi ... uiu l, ttvivilUl Villi
slitulion, as are necessary to prevent
recurring ot rebellion, secure justice and
freedom to all men of all classes, eon
ditions and colors, and guard the nation
al faith from violation.
7. That rebels ought not to be preci
pitated into power beforo such guaran
ties havo been obtained, and that accor
dingly Congress, to which rightfully
pertains all questions of reconstruction,
is to be cordially sustained in their
demand for sacli guaranties
8. That with tlio beginning of the
war this ration took a new departure,
nnd henceforth her constitution is to be
read in the interest ot liberty, justice
and security, according to tho lights of
' its preamble and the immortal declara
tion of independence, under the teach
ings ot its authors and compatriots.
Too long elrcady has it been interpreted
in the interest of slavery and caste.
9. That Mnj. Gen John W. .Geary
having given ju-t evidence cf his devo
tiou to the Union during the great
rebellion by volunteering in its defense
, and serving faithfully during the war,
when many like J leister Clymer, who
now claims to be equally patriotic, were
rendering aid and comfort to the rebels,
nnd ho now being before the people of
. Pennsylvania as a candidate for the
, office of Governor, wo his fellow soldiers
, in that timo of trial,, pledgo to him our
hearty support, and ask tho same for
him from all tliosn who acknowledge the
dept of gratitude due from the country
to its saviors.
10. That tho Soldiers of Pennsylvania
recognize no wanner or truer friend
than Governor. Andrew G. Ciiriin. lite
name is our watch word, his famo our
hopo, and his merit our glory. The un
swerving love of the "soldiers' friend"
will be reciprocated by unfaltering de
votion. 11. That we n peal hopefully to Con
grew tor a speedy question on the equali
zation of bounties to the soldiers.
iz. i nit ueneving mat treason is a
crime and that ''tinitors should be
punished," wo demand that leading
traitors should be convicted ami exectitt d
as an cxqriiplo to traitors tor all time to
comn
, 13. That this convent'on is ablo to
express its sentiments upon the vholo
matter of 'issues and candidates in few
words, which may answer fi r our ban
ner inscriptions in the coming campaign
'God Grant Geary Victory."
14. That the Legislation whereby
Congrcss attempted to defend and pro
tect our allies -tho loal men of the
South against the deadly hatred of the
common enemy, and to make good to a
race tho freedom proffered as the prioe
of aid and awarded as tho duo ot loyalty,
deserves unqualified approval. '
- 15. That wo request Congress so to
legislate as to protect American lndus
tcry by high protective tariff.
" fenian"news.
There is nothing particularly exciting
in tho Fenian news. Gen. Sprnr still
occupies his encampment at St. Armand,
and we have reports of tho sound of
musketury in that direction. The
IJritish tr6ops are concentrating near
hliu, and ho probably will soon have to
leave or bo captured. The skedaddlo of
iFenians homeward lift commenced, and

Tho term dd Abolitionist," has
given place in tho vocabulary of theanti
republican party to its synonym "d A
Hndical." Thoy flaunted tho former
until it bocamo ot no more practical use
to them, and have now adopted the latter
as n favorito epithet wherein is contain
ed all that can be deemed opprobrious
and vile to those who would maw tain
the liberties and priveleges of our con
stitution as preserved to us by tin livos
and blood of near a million tons of the
North. To those who have minds of
their own and strength of purpose suffi
cient to carry out what their minds dic
tate, tho word is well calculated to ap
ply as one of honor and distinction.
Never since first "the morningstars sang
together" has tho world known a great
or abolitionist than our heroic Lincoln,
and to-day the heart ot tho American
natio.i throbs with greatttil remembrance
and thanks to God tor blessing us with
so great an emancipationist. Tho name
politically extinct, is one which those
who have in former times merited it, are
now proud of the, title, bearing as it
decs tho signification of all that was
noble, patriotic and self sacrificing
Wh predict the same of tlioso who are
now hailed by tho lampoon of "radi
cals." Gallilco, Columbus, Fulton,
Franklin, our forefathers all, and of
laio years, Grant, Sherman, and in fact
all soldiers of the Union might bo term
ed "radicals" and such "radicals !"
where aro their precedents ? Although
frr a timo tho "radicals" may bo subject
to every insult heaped by man upon man
it will but serve to separate tho dross
from the pure motal and they who hold
out will in tho end be considered the
true coin with "genuine ring."

We publish in another column an
abridged account of tho proceedings of
tho above Convention. That it will
meet with the hearty approbation of
every true "boy in blue" throughout our

to a party of O'Mahoncy's friends there

addressed a crowd at Jeffursou and Jack

Roberts, the opponent of O'Mahone).

Tub President has issued a prochw

acting in a leading capacity for the Fe

Esq., tho Democratic candidate for Con

gunient against tha constitutionality of
the law, "proclaimed the startling tact
that tho number of deserters iu Pennsyl
vania would amount to thirty thousand
and that twenty-five thousand belongod
to the Democratic party." It this bn
true, nnd we see no reason to doubt,
how much stronger then tho argument

their blood and risking of their lives, by

W ESTLECTIONN
Wc note by our late W. Va. papers
the majority for tho Constitutional
Amendment iu that State will be about
SOOO. The amendment is such that it
excludes rebels from all citizen privileges
oilier than those guaranteed by the civil
rights bill.
It would scorn therefore that treason
is to bo made "odious" and nU loyalty.
Wo of Western Pennsylvania have had
reason to thank them heretofore, and
again we say all honor to tho gallant
men who were first in peace, as they
are iu war, to denounce traitors aud their
evil dungs.

But these skeptics go still further
Tbey Bay, here in Pennsylvania, that
Andiikw Johnson is laboring to defeat
General Gkauy and to elect IIikhtkii
Clwikr. Fortunately Mr. Johnson's
utterances give us an nnlidote to this
skepticism. In the speech last quoted
Mr. Johnson said:
It is not the men in tho field who aro
the greatest tiaitors. It is thu men who
have encouraged them to imperil their
lives, while they themselves have remain

that he did do this very thing- Mors
than this. We can prove it by the ad
mission of at least two Copperhead
p ipers which advocate his eleetion.
Wl a', follows? What but the conclu
sion that, if Andrew Johnson ever gets
a chance, he will hang Ilicster Clymer
and four-fifths of the .Copperhead lea

if ho never changes, ho hu passed sen

In brief, commending Itself to musicians and

its purity and sweetness of tone, and itsscopo-
0 expression, added to ils durability and com
plete construction, cannot fail to make it a
universal favorito. Such is the degree of per
fection to which these instruments have been

establishing a popular ir uslcal tastn wherever
