with the work for the Fair Which is to be
held here with all possible dispatch. It can,
not be cipeeted that-the object which it has

THE CON VENTION.—The National U
nion Cohvention assembled in Baltimore on
Tuesday last. Six hundred delegates were
in attendence. ''The venerable Rev. Robert
Ilreckenridge of Rontnety was elected tem
porary President and dclivereda_s_tirrinaz a a
patriotic address. Governor Dennison Was
afterwards , chaien as ierffinnunt--Presiden
~ :_eitthe_convention.--Parson Brown
low was also among the speakers - . All were
enthusiastic for the re-nomination of Pres
ident Lincoln. A despatch to the Press
says:
The Committee on Resolutions, at the
meeting this (Tuesday) evening, presented
the following resolutions as a platform.-
-They are brief and radical. The platform fa
vors an amendment to the Constitution abot
ishing gallery, sustains emancipation as a
mar measure, sustains the arming of slaves,
demands for the negro all civil rights, favors
confiscation, •and accepts the most radical
principles as the political creed of the Na
tional, Union party., The delegates from In
diana and Ohio, it is understood, favor Mr.
Tod, of Ohio, for the Vice President. An
effort will be made to rally New York for
him, but it lookins if the contest would be
between Dickinson and Hamlin.. New York
is ditided, and much feeling is expressed.—
Thurlow Weed left tliis evening. He has
been urging Hamlin, whose chances. ate ea
gerly discussed to-night. There is a laige
crowd here, and politicians are making stir
ring speeches. A strong' party supports
Johnson. Pennsylvania stands firm for Ham
lin.
UNION VICTORY.—As we go to press
we are informed by a gr teleman from GI een
castle that a despatch , was received there
this (Tharsday)_morning announcing• an en

the lattei was killed and about one-halt of

Mir SAINTED LOPE : If the Yankee.cusses
will let me alone, , .T. mill write yotta letter.—
Gen. U. S. Grant is a hull-dog, and Meade
is a match for the devil.. No matter how
deeply we ensconce ourselves in the woods,
the Yankees are sure to find us' out. They
charge on our works again and again, and
very often take them from us. They fight
more fiercely than I have ever seen them.—
is for digging, Grant beats M.Xlellan all
hollow. The Yankees build strong rifle pits,
and then our brave officers ask us to charge
them We' have done so, and they have gm.
en us hell every time. Illy sainted !eve, you
will excuse me for using this language, but
if you were with us you would say that they
givo.us hell, too !
My patriotic lair one, I am almost.tired of
this So long es there appeared ehance of

'Several letters were passed between' Gen.

regrets that all his efforts for alleviating the
sufferings of the wounded men on the battle
field have been rendered nugatory. Two reb

wounded of their commands, wore captured
in consequence of the enemy not delivering
General Lee's letter until after , the hour he'
named had expired ' General Grant has no

and a portion of the 6th Corps, last evening,
but were handsomely repulsedafter a des
perate struggle. They advanced several times
thetr lines being cut to pieces, and each at
tempt to reach our works failed. Their loss
must have been fearful; as our mon shot them
at short range, while our batteries swept theta
down in masses. Our loss was ,very light.
A shell exploded among General Hancock's
staff, taking off the leg of one of them. His
name has not been ascertained.
The roport of' a train having been captur

are guarded all .the way . from the White
