THE EVENING STAR. Fetes Scam “Ws mci a a an ae W. D. WALLACH, Editor and Proprietor. ‘WASHINGTON OITY: THURSDAY. seeseee JUNE 9, 1864. SS ee @7-READING MATTER ON EVERY PaGE SEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELB- G@RAPHIO AND OTHER MATTER. - LINCOLN AND JOUNSON. The sincere friends of the Union will every- where feel encouraged and inspiriied by the sagacious and harmonious action of the Balti- | more Convention on yesterday, and its enemies | ‘Will feel correspondingly disheartened. This work of the Convention was bat the ratification of the wishes of. tie people of the country, expressed with such remarkable unanimity and enthusiasm North and South, and from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Since the days of Washington ‘no such spontaneous tes- | timony has been given to the integrity, honesty, and ability of a Chief Magistrate as in this en- thueiastic endorsement of Abraham Lincoln by the people of the United States. ‘The enemies of the Union have fondly hoped that some more unscripulons, or radical, or crotchety candidate would be put in nomina- tion by the Union men, who might be either defeated in November by the “conglomerate democracy,” or who, if elected, would, by cranky statesmanship or reckless partizanship, speedily lose the public confidence, and in- volve the Union cause in hopeless ruin. But all that has been averted by the renomination of the man in whom the people have an unal- terable faith. The hopes of the malignants have been bias ted, also, quite as effectually as. Tegards the nomination of 8 candidate for Vice President. The name of Andrew ,Jobason is @ tower of strength, and we think it would be impossible to present two names for the re- spective positions haying 8 stronger hold on the affections, and in the confidence of the peo- ple of the country than Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johneon. The man who, with more than Jacksonian courage, stood up in the Senate of the United States and denounced secession and the seces- sionists, saying to them, as he pointed his finger in the direction of Jeff. Dayis, «It I were the President, I would arrest you as traitors, try you as traitors, and hang you as traitors /” is the man for the popular heart. The ticket is one that will rally all loyal men to its support with an enthusiasm of which that which greeted its announcement in the Vonvention is but the faintest premonition. ARRIVAL OF WOUNDED. The State of Maine reached here yesterday morning trom the White House. She had on board about six hundred wounded, including thirty-eight officers. It is understood at the wharf that in future 0 wounded will be sent here on any boats ex- cept those fitted up with hospital accommo- dations; consequently the arrival of boats | with wounded will not be so numerous as heretofore. The steamer Monohonsett arrived with about 375 wounded, trom the White House, which she left at three o’clock yesterday afternoon. men were mostly from the 6th corps, and were in charge of Surgeons O'Farrell and C, Wiley. RECEPTION BY PRESIDENT LINCOLN oF DBLEGATES TO THE LATE BaLrimorw Con- VENTION.—At an early hour this morning quitea number of Delegates to the late Balti- more Convention began to assemble at the ‘White House for the purpose of paying their Tespect to President Lincoin, and the New Jersey delegation having called in a body, the President signified his willmgness to meet that delegation and others at 11 o'clock in the ‘Bast Room. it Before the hour designated about one han- oe bod the Nee assembled there— ew Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Mary- land, and other States being represented. ‘Ki ten minutes past eleven the President entered the East Room, escorted by Gov. Newell, of Now Jersey, and took 8 position in the centre ofthe room. The delegates then spprosched one by one, and were presented to the Presi- — by Gov. N. sae steak i ge making, t many congratulatory rem‘ be- tween the President and bis ‘aie ‘There were many ladies and gentlemen (not connected with the convention) present, who = also cordially received by President Lin- coin.

To that end resort must be had to a draft, but apie experience has now shown that the pe- cullar exemption from service frustrates the object of the Enrollment.law, by furnishing money instead of men. An additional reason for repealing the three hundred dollar, clause is, that it is contem- Plated to make the draft fora comparatively short term. The burden of military service will, therefore, be lightened, but the certainty _ age troops is an absolute essential to I have the honor to be your obedient servant, E. M.

It winds up the article as follows:—« In short, yesterday was a busy day for us, and a | dark one tor Grant.’ We have lost no ground on our right; we have gained largely on our left, and we have taken nearly two usand prisoners.

SMITH’S AMERICAN ORGAN. De Among the different inventions originated and rfected by American ingenuity during the past wenty years, few are more surprising than the improvement in musical instruments. especially in reed ingtrumente, known as ** REED ORGANS,” HARMONIUMS and MELODEONS. European ite has long seemed to have been ed with the Organs of Alexandre and Pleyel, although neither of those instruments afford much real variety of tone, notwithstanding the makers have multiplied stops and seta of reeds, and by conse- qeence, the cost, to an extraordinary seqree, The merican Organ, made by 8. D.& . Smith, Boston. may safely challenge comparison with either of them, whether as regards variety, power end frectnoss ot tone, or cost. All reed instruments made by the best manufac- carers in this country are constructed on the same pringiple, viz: of drawing the air through the bys y an exhaustive bellows, instead of forcing it through them by powertal pressure, and the “‘American Organ’? differs from its competitors mainly in three points: Ist, the great care and thoroughness exercised in manufacture; 2d, in the ful voicing, wiving as many different qualities oftone as there are sets of reeds; and 3d, in the use ofa reverberating box, which adds materially to the a pewer of inetrument without detriment to its elicany and. aweetness. Any person possessing a musical box can readily appreciate thisimprove- ment by setting it while in operation on a mantel or fabie.ana then on a large empty box or barrel, ant obeersing {36 vastly increased power and rich- ness when ia the latter position.

Smith being the most experienced Reed Organ makers in Boston (having established them- Belves yand having at least equal facilities with aby eteae makers, have always kept them- selves familiar with all improvements and inven- tions in their departmert, they confidentl eect their “AMERICAN OnGans” to be ‘unequalled n voicing, and unsurpassed by any, at home or abroad, in purity, sweetness and power of tone. The contrivance for producing varied expression, such as the “treble forte,” tremolo and the swell, and the ease with which change of stops may be ade, render the AMERICAN OrGan, in skillful ands, capable of as much delicacy of expression and variety of effect as the expensive Harmoniums of Alexandre with their thirteen registers, and while undoubtedly far superior in durability, is sold for less than half the cost, ‘i The demand in England for Smith’s American Organ is steadily increasing, and is an irrefraga- ble proof that it, triumphantly stands the testof gompetitionin their own market with the most rated European instruments. ; ‘OHN F.

O. T. Beard, of Brooklyn. N. Y., in behalf of the delegation, made a few remarks, congratulatory of President Lincoin’s re- nomination, to which thé President replied as follows: Gentlemen, I can only say in response to the kind remarks of your chairman, as I suppose, that I am véry grateful for the renewed cunfl- dence which has been accorded to me ,both by the Convention and by the National League. I am not insensible at all to the personal com- pliment there is in this, and yet I do not allow myself to believe that any bnt small portion of itis to be appropriated as ® personal compliment. That really the con- vention and the Union League assembled with a higher view—that of taking care of the interests of the country for the pene andgthe great future; and that the part I am entitled to appropriate asia compliment is only that part which I may lay hold'of as being the opinion the Convention and of the League—that I am not entirely unworthy to be entrusted with the place which I have occupied forthe last three years. But Ido not allow myself to suppose that either the Con vention or'the League have concluded to decide that I am either the greatest or best manin America, but rather they have con- cluded that it isnot best toswap horses while crossing the river, and have further concluded that I am not so poora horse that they might not make @ botch of it in trying to swap. (Laughter and applause. After the conclusion of the President's re- marks, the IDinois delegation entered the room and were cordially received by the President. During & conversation between President Lin- colin and several members of this delegation, some mention was made that A. B. Sloanaker, of Pennsylvanie had prosured a flattering | picture of him (the President) and presented | it tothe Illinois delegation, and he said, «I sup- pose he made it from my principles, not my beauty.” (Laughter.] OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT TO PRESIDENT LINCOLN OF His RENOMINATION BY THE BAL- | TIMORE CONVENTION.—At 25 o'clock the com- mittee appointed yesterday by the National Union Convention -at Baltimore, to inform President Lincoln of his nomination by that convention, reached the White House, when they were invited into the East Room by the President, where the President was conversing with the members of the delegation who had previously called upon him. Gov. Dennison, Presidentof the Convention and Chairman of said Committee, then ad. dressed the President as follows: Mr. President—The National Union Conven-. dion, which closed its sittings at Baltimore yesterday, appointed a commit consisting of one ym each State, with myself as its chairman, to inform you of your unanimous nomination by that Convention for election to the office of President of the United States. That committee ET have the honor of now in- forming you, is present. On its behalf I haye also the honor of presenting you with a copy of the resolutions or platform adopt- ed by that Convention as expressive of its sense, and of the sense of the loyal people of the country which it represents; of the so ae ciples and the policy that should character- ize the administration of the Government in the present condition of the country. I need not say to you, sir, that the Convention in thus | unanimously nominating you for re-election but gaye utterance to the almost universal voice of the loyal people of the country. To doubt of your triumphant election would be little short of abandoning the hope of the final suppression of the rebellion, and the restora- tion of the authority of the Government over the insurgent States. Neither the Convention nor thoserepresented by that body entertained any doubt as to the final result. Under your adnmtinistration, sus- tained by that loyal people and by our noble army and gallant navy, neither did the Uon- vention nor do this Committee doubt the speedy seppression of this most wicked and unpro- voked rebellion. [A copy of the resolutions was here handed to the President] I should add, Mr. President, it would be the pleasure ot the committee to communicate to you, within a few days, through one of its Most accomplished members, Mr. Curtis, of New York, by letter, more at length, the cir- cumstances under which you have been placed in nomination for the Presidency. THE PRESIDENT’S RESPONSE. The President taking the resolutions from‘his pocket where he had placed them, and unfUid- ing the same, said Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Com- mittee, I will neither conceal my gratification nor restrain the expression of my gratitude that the Union people through their Conven- tion in the continued effort tosave and advance the Nation, have deemed me not unworthy to Temain in my present position. I know no reason to doubt that I shall accept the nomination tendered; and yet, perhaps, I should not declare definitely before reading and considering what is called the platform. 1 will say now, however, I approve the declaration in fayor of so amending the Con- stitution as to prohibit slavery thronghout the nation. When the people in revolt, with a hundred days of explicit notice that they could within those days resume their allegiance without the overthrow of their institutions, and that they could not resume it afterwards, elected to stand out, such amend- ment tothe Constitution as is now proposed became a fitting and necessary conclusion to the final success of the Union cause. Such alone can meet and cover all cavils. Now,the unconditional Union men, North and South, perceive its importance, and embrace it. In the joint names of Liberty and Union let us labor to give it legal form and practical effect. At the conclusion of the President’s speech all of the committee shook him cordially by the hand and offered their personal congratula- tiong. _ RUMORS. Rumor has been busy for the last twenty-four hours with stories that «Grant is retreating;’”’ “Grant has fallen back fifteen miles,” “Grant has gone to Harrison’s Landing, on James river,” d&c., &c. These rumors have, for the most part, doubt- lees grown out of the fact that Grant has not been'reported as fighting for the last day or two; and as it is known that he is not of the stand-still order, the conclusion was immedi- ately jumped to that he was either falling back, or sw! ig across the peninsula to James Tiver and a new base, with the parpose of heading for Richmond on 8 new tac! Without pretending to be over-knowing, we will undertake tosay that whatever may be the movements Grant is engaged in, no one of them partakes in the slightest degree of the character of a retreat. Grant may be feeling along the entire line of the defenses of Rich- mond for the most vulnerable point, much as he felt along every part of the defenses of Vicksburg, and he will surely be as successtul in the case of Richmond as he was in that of Vicksburg. CAPTURE OF A PRIZE, On Friday last two of Marshal McPhail’s detectives, in cruisi in the Potomac, came across the schoone! elinda, of Baltimore, Capt, Edward Lee, owned by himself and brother, and suspicioning something wrong, asshe was bound to Alexandria and was lying at when she had a fair wind, they boarded her, when they found that she hadan assorted cargo, among which was some whis- ky in barrels, marked cider.

SENATE.—Mr. Morrill moved to take up the bill in addition to the several acts concerning commercial intercourse between loyal and i surrectionary States, and to provide for the col- lection ofcaptured and abandoned property, and the prevention of frauds in States declared in insurrection. Mr. Davis asked the gentleman to give way to allow him to offer a joint resolution to re- store peace among the people of the United States, and it was read. Messrs. Sumner and Howard objected to thé reception of the resolution, and the Chair de- cided that the resolution was not in order. Mr. Davis contended that objections were void, as the resolution had been read by its title, and the second reading was called for. Mr. Johnson said if the facts were as stated by Mr. Davis, it was certainly too late to ob- ject. to the reception. He would vote against the resolutions, because he thought them ill- soiree and was in favor of disposing of em. Mr. Conness thought the resolutions were insurreetionary; and he was not in favor of taking the vote on their adoption or rejection. Mr. Lane said if the resolutions were before the Senate, he moved their rejection. After some debate, the question was then taken on Mr. Davis’ appeal, and the decision ot the Chair was sustained, and the resolu- tions were not received. Hovsg.—The House resumed the considera- tion of the bill reported from the Committee for the District of Columbia to incorporate the Baltimore and Washington Depot and Poto- mac Ferry Company; which was passed. A joint resolution was passed requiring the Secretary of the Interior to cause surveys to be made and estimates prepared for additional facilities for drainage sewerage in the citv of Washington, in connection with the intro- duetion of Potomac water and the deepening of the channel of the Potomac river; the ex- pense of the survey not to exceed $3,000. Mr. Brandagee, of Conn., reported a bill for the construction of a railroad for miNtary and jostal purposes between New Yorkand Wash- igton. A lively conversation ensued, on the motion of Mr. Brandegee that the bill be printed, re- committed to the Selact Committee, and that a day be designated for its consideration. ‘he proceedings on this subject were inter- rupted by Mr. Jen¢kes calling up the bankrupt bill, which was ordered to be engrossed for a third reading. _ ‘This bill was rejected—yeas 64, nays 65. Mr. Cravens moved to reconsider the vote, and lay it on the table, pending which the morning hour expired. LOOAL NEWS, a ee CONDEMNED UNDER THE CONFISCATION ACT.

Othneil French, dissolving the bonds of matrimony between them, and giving the petitioner the right toresume her maiden name and again marry, as though the mespondent were actually dead, but making it unlawful for the respondent to marry again until the petitioner is actually dead. The petition on which the decree was made was filed by M. Thompson, Esq.,.and states that they married on the 26th of December, 1861, (the maiden name of the petitioner being Beardsiey,) and that the respondent totally abandoned and deserted her, and that she has never cohabited with him. She also charges that the defendant has been guilty of repeated acts of adultery with a woman named Eliz- abeth Stevens, in a house on C street, between 6th and 7th, and with divers other women. There was no appearance for the respondent, and commissioners were appointed to take tes- timony, when two witnesses testified to the taain allegations in the petition.
