THE OBJECT OF THE M AR.
In 1861, Andrew Johnson .introduced
iu the Senate of the United States, a res
olution in which occurred the following
language: ‘'The war is not waged on our
part in auy spirit of oppression, or for any
purpose of conquest, or for interfering
with the right or established institutions
of these (the Southern) States, but to
maintain the supremacy of the Constitu
tion, etc.” Upon this resolution and its
true spirit, the army of 1861-2 was raised
and Mr. Lincoln was enabled to organize
that policy of warfare which led to the fi
nal overthrow of the South. It was to re
store the Union, which they admitted had
Fcen severed, to maintain the supremacy
of the Constitution and the laws—as their
leaders claimed—that induced the great
bulk of Northern men to enter the army, j
to spill their blood, to sacrifice their lives;
and when the end came, when cannon no I
longer thundered from n thousand hills, ,
none were more ready to forget and extend i
to a noble though fallen foe, all the rights ,
and privileges which were by right of i
stipulation theirs, than the rank and file -
of tin; Federal army. But there arc those
who, forgetting every principle of manhood
and honor, would subject to additional in
tuit, a people who have the right to at I
least their respect. If the war was for the
restoration of the Union, and the Federal ^
Government was successful, then has not
the Union been restored ? Jf so, why have j
the Southern people been denied repre-'
eentation in the Congress of that Union, j
into which they have been brought by

Southern States wore nevefout of the Uti
ion, and the war has ended leaving them
out, theu have they, and not the Federal
Government been successful in the object
for which they waged the war, viz : the
establishment of an independent govern
ment. Which end of the rope the Radi
cals take is hard to determine. If there
was manifest no spirit of oppression in the ,
war that was waged against us, why is it;
that the Radical party now, that they have
accomplished the overthrow of slavery—;
which was not their intention—so Oppress
us with taxation, deny us representation,
and before we may partake of the least of
the benefits flowing from a connection with
the general Government, submit to us such
conditions ns would condemn us to the
merited disapprobation of all honest people
did we accept them. Allhough they clam
ored for Union. they wanted no Union
Else why do they prevent it now. The
true object for which the Radicals carried
on the war has been accomplished—the
Union has been severed, and the balance
of power has fallen into their hands. They
know that with Southern representation
Radical glory must depart, lienee they op
pose it to the bitter end. Rut. these things
draw to a close. Radicalism totters on its
throne. The people of the North arc
dropping the scales from their eyes, and
soon the conservative voice of the country
shall proclaim the expressed object of tlie
war accomplished, peace and harmony re
stored. Then, and not till then, shall our
country, our whole country, begin its sec
ond onward march to prosperity

ami adjourned, but with what results we
*nre unablcd to say, because of the failure
of mails. From the meager report before
us. we gather that great harmony prevailed,
and much interest was manifested in the
condition of the country. South Carolina
nud Massachusetts eutered the Convention
arm in arm. amidst loud applause, aud re
pcated cheering for the whole Union. it
must have been a sight to make glad tlie
hearts of all true lovers of the country, to
see men from every State in the Union
confering in concord and harmony, for the
good of the whole country. An address
was read by the Hon. Henry J. Raymond,
of New York, from which we make the
following paragraph :
‘‘And the ten millions of Americans
who live in the South would be unworthy
citizens of a free commonwealth, degener
ate sons of a common ancestry, unfit ever
to become guardians of the right principles
bequeathed to us by the fathers and found
ers of the republic, if they could accept
with uncomplaining submission the humil
iations thus sought to-be imposed upon
them.”
\Ve can hope from the evidence we have.
♦ hat radicalism has been seriously wound
ed, by the deliberations and conclusions of
this great body of the best men North aud
youth. May it be so.

Southern soldiers will be held at au early
day.

On last Friday the 15th inst-, in pnr
suance to previous notice, the citizens of
1’rairic county met in Railroad Convention
in onr city. At i) o’clock A. M., an au
dience variously estimated from three, live,
and six hundred persons, assembled in a
: beautiful grove, in which scats and a stand
j for tlie speakers hud been erected. The
Convention organized, by the election of
Capt Sim Horne, Chairman, and T. J.
.Marsh, Secretary. After the above or
ganization, the Chairman requested that
the Committee, who bad previously been
appointed to canvass the line of the Res
Are, Dardanelle A Fort Smith Railroad, to
receive subscription of stock in said Rail
road, would lay before the meeting their
report. Judge A. O. Edwards, came for
ward in lieu of Rr. John S. Williams, one
of the Committee—who was unable to at
tend the Convention owing to ill health—
and reported that the Committee had re
ceived subscriptions in stoct to the amount
of 890,000. The Judge said, that along
the proposed lino the people, everywhere,
gave the Committee a hearty welcome and
encouraging support, in the enterprise in
which they were engaged. The people
told the Committee, that they hailed with
exultant joy, the initiatory steps of this
noble and grand improvement, the benefits
of which were so imperatively demanded
by the interests of every community, and
expressed the strongest determinatiun to
aid by subscription in stock, of money, land,
nr by any other means in their power, the
speedy completion of this line of Railroad.
After the above report had been receiv
ed, Col Burney was called upon to address
the meeting, lie came forward, and enter
tained the audience for the space of two
hours in an address, abounding in convin
cing arguments in favor of railroads, and
delivered in a style and manner, that ar
rested the attention, instructed and inter
ested the entire audience. The Col is an
enthusiast upon the subject of railroads,
and when discussing this tjuestion before
the public, lie handles it with an ardor and
zeal, as lofty, as it is noble and commenda
ble. It would be useless for us to attempt,
to give even a synopsis ?>f his speech, but
will hope, that-'the bread thus cast upon
the waters,” may have the desired effect
in the hearts of the people.

for, to address the meeting. Coming for
ward, he occupied the attention of the
Convention for quite a length of time, in
the delivery of an able and well defined
speech- lie is a matter-of-fact man lie
goes out in the flowery field of imagination
to cull ideal gems wherewith to adorn his
speech, but grasping truth, the foundation
of all knowledge and instruction, with an
unwavering faith in its power to convince,
ho sends conviction home to the minds of
his hearers. Having been closely connect
ed for the past ten years, in moving for
ward similar enterprises in the State of
Missouri, eminently tits him to he an in
structor upon this subject among us. He
will l* the right man in the right place—
thoroughly acquainted with the ways and
means of constructing railroads, he brings
to boar in the discussion of this subject, a
rich fund oi facts and statistics, that would
evidently take deep root in the minds of
the people—and should, by all means, be
sent out—in connection with other able
speakers—along this proposed line*nf rail
road, to advocate the building of the same
The Col on taking his seat was loudly ap
plauded by the audience.
At this stage of the proceedings, dinner
being announced, the Convention adjourn
ed until 2 o'clock. The ladies of White
River Township, upon this occasion, gave
another evidence of their unbounded gene
rosity, by providing a sumptuous repast
for each and every one that was in atten
dance at the Convention, The Committee,
for receiving subscriptions instock, think
ing this an opportune moment to press this
matter upon the consideration of those
present, took the books and solicited sub
scriptions. of which quite a liberal amount
was subscribed—leaving but little margin
between the $90,000 heretofore subscribed,
and the $100,000 necessary in order to
elect a Board of Directors.
At 2 o'clock the Convention re con
vened. After repeated calls, Judge A. O.
Kdwards, made one of his characteristic
speeches, short, but well put together,
rich in humor, replete in argument, it had
the ring of hard, common sense, nud un
doubtedly, made a favorable impression
upon the audience T. ,1. Marsh, was then
called for, who occupied the attention of
the meeting for a few moments

Letter f;ora Hon. C. L. VaHandigham.
To the Democratic Central Committees of the
Third Congressional District of Ohio.
GENTLEMEN—Assured by competent an
I tbority, that, it is no part of the secret, as it
I certainly is not of the avowed and public pur
| pose of the Philadelphia National Convention
I of August 14th, to propose any measure look
I ing to the present ultimate disbanding of the
' democratic party, I accept the appointment as
one of the delegates to that Convention from j
this district, and, accepting, desire to add a ;
i word of explanation.
I am well aware that by the great mass of ;
the democratic party, hero and elsewhere, the I
convention is regarded with extreme jo.*, use I
and distrust. Nothing couhl lie more natural; i
nothing more just. They who stand forth tot
(lie world as the managing agents of t he move- j
incut, were among the chief supporters of the
late Mr. Lincoln and of the party by which he
was first and second time chosen President. !
There is not one net of wrong, oppression or j
outrage committed during the last five years
upon the democratic party or the individual !
members who composo it, for which they are I
not directly or remotely responsible. Some
among them spent a lifetime in raising the
storm of civil war which for so long raged
with the fury of the hurricane all over the
land—that storm whose lashings yet threaten
to engulf whatever is left, of the original, form
of our federal system, the rights of the tijpiles
and the liberties of the people. Through the
agency of these men, and of others with them,
a reign of terror, scarce surpassed even in the
darkest periods of the French revolution of
’85), smote the land, wrenching hearts, desola
ting homes, and destroying, in its course, not
only political and personal liberty, but the
peace, the quiet, and the security of every
hearthstone, those only excepted where dwelt
the sycophants and minions of despotic power.
Not a democratic household in Ohio, perhaps
anywhere, escaped without injury to person or
property, or, at least, without insult or wrong
to name, to family and to reputation Dis
persal of public meetings, suppression of
newspapers, proscription in all the social, re
ligious and business relations of life, calum
nies, persecutions, mobbings, stripes, stonings,
arrests, imprisonment, military commissions,
exile, death—-these were the bitter fruits of
the teachings and policy of the men who now
invite democrats to sit in friendly council with
them in the l’hiladelphia Convention. That,
such an invitation, from such a quarter, should
be received with suspicion and distrust, if not
with keener, stronger emotions, is but an in
stinct of nature ; and whoever consents, offers
up a high ami holy sacrifice to magnanimity
and patriotism, lint wise men do not heark
en to the voice of passion, and patriots never
sacrifice the being and welfare of their coun
try to the impulses of revenge. Providence

of the past five years, the restoration of the
constitution and the Union, and with them, of
free federal government, and public and per
sonal liberty. The tide in the affairs of men
which leads to fortune, is now setting in, and
it must be taken at. the flood. As to all who
in good faith “accept the situation,’’ and
would even yet avert the natural and iegisri
mate fruits. North and South, of civil war, the
past must be forgotten, antecedents ignored,
and the great issue of the hour made tiie sole
test, of present fellowship and co-operation.
Save the ship first. Strive then for the mas- i
tery. lie who cannot, attain to the bight of!
this great argument, is too much of a partisan
to be anything of a patriot.
On every side dangers encompass us. The
late war. indeed, is over: but the evils of;
which ail wars, and civil wars especially, are
the prolific parents, just now begin to be felt. \
In good faith and earnestly, ijs . believe, the!
President labors day and .night to avert or to 1
mitigate these evils. Ills is the rare, but
wise, healing, exalted policy of conciliation,
magnanimity—the policy of the Christian and
the statesman. That of the republican party
represented by tne congress may be summed
up in two words, Vae viclin—-“Woe to tlie con
quered'’—the unwise, narrow, irritating,
peace destroying policy of the barbarian and
pirate between these two the country must
now choose, and the life of the republic hangs
upon the choice.
1 am not unaware that a handful of mischiev
ous and evil-disposed persons of the republi
can party, now among the professed friends
of the President, but themselves of peculiarly
odious and unpatriotic record and antecedents,
pretend to set up tests for admission to the
Philadelphia Convention, as against certain
men—in fact all meu^pn# the democratic par
ty. The combined indecency, presumption
and folly of ibis pretense, together with the
mingled treachery and hypocrisy of the mo
tives which prompt it, render it too contempt
ible for further notice. It' the Philadelphia
Convention is to apply any other test than the
present status and principles of the delegates
upon the one great question of the day as set
forth in tne call—above all, if It is to be per
verted to an inquisition, on either side, into
the record and antecedents of the men who
shall present themselves with the ordinary
credentials of membership, then, appropri
ately, it should be assembled in the temple of i
discord, or, far belter it had not be assembled
at all. Upon the heads of those, of either par
ty, who shall first stir these fountains of bit- j

IIknry A. Wise on the Cumenes.—Ex
Governor Wise delivered a very remarkable
address iu Norfolk (lie other day for the bene
fit of'the Southern churches devastated by the
war. He took the grounds, while alluding to
the late rebellion, which have been adopted
for the first time by any Southern orator—
that the war was brought about by the act of
God for the destruction of slavery, and, taking
this view of the subject, Governor Wise argues
that no one should be punished for acts com
mitted according to the dispensations of
Heaven. Governor Wise said:—
lie is. I fear, an infidel who doesn’t sec that
the fire and sword of this war were sent from
heaven. God knew that we could be torn
away from our black idol of slavcvy only by
fire and blood and the drawn sword of the de
stroying angel of war. He sent (hem, and
we ought to praise the Most High that he did
not send worse plagues, like those of Egypt,
against whatever weakness or wickedness we
clung to like Pharoali. But 1 appeal to Chris
tian charity, and to every known law, whether
individual citizens and persons ought to he
vindictively punished by man or government
; for the acts of sovereign States and the inevi
| table interposition of Divine Providence.

1 lie editor of the Mobile AReertiser a»<>
Rnjixter, in an able article on the “Assas
sination Committee,” says:
A curious collection of mutilated docu
ments is brought forward by the commit
tee, to prove what everybody knew before
—that .Messrs. Thompson and Clay were
acting in Canada as agents of the Confed
erate government, and that they were
endeavoring to cripple and harrass the
enemy for the benefit of their own country
and her cause It would be amusing, if
such subjects could amuse, to mark the
pious horror with which Co- committee
speaks ot efforts to promote disaffection in
the northern states, at a time when the
federal government was openly encourag
ing insurrection in the south It was
honorable and heroic to invade the south
ern states, to burn cities, destroy crops, and
plunder plantations; but it was an atrocious
crime to make a retaliatory raid upon a
village in Vermont and to frighten the
women and children of Pilgrim stock, who
were exulting in the ruin of southern homes
and the miseries of southern maids and
matrons. Put why should we speak of
these things? It is very evident that
what is sauce for the southern goose is not
sauce for the northern gander.
