Prrrssunch, Wedpesday, Sept. 25, 1666, The people of Pittsburgh Lave reason to be proud that their eity should be selected as the place to bold the largest, greatest and most important Convention that bas ever been assembled In America—a Convention of citi- zen soldiers and sailors, composed of those who braved death and danger, that their country might live. The people here have done themselves credit. No more hos- pitable and fitting welcome could be given the heroes now here than is being given by the loyal and patriotie people of Pittsburgh. The city bas been in & blaze of excitement since yesterday. ‘The decorations of buildings throughout the city seem o bo universal. Thero is scarccly & building with. out its flag or bauner of weleowe. Good taste und care mark the display. During yesterday the streets were crowded, but to-day they are jammed. Fifthest., the Broadway of Pittsburgh, presents a truly magnificent sight in the way of decorations and general excitement. Every train and boat up to this morning brought into the city hosts of delegates, and s each would arrive it would be met by a delegation of citizens, and with flags and music marched through the streets and welcomed by the eheers of the people. DELEGATIONS ARRIVED. About midnight last night several steamboats arrived at the levee, each erowded with soldicrs’ delegates from the country along the Obio Kiver. The boys expecting the city to be full to overflowing, bad provided thewselves with all the » ¥ utensils upon wh their stay. 8o when the boats were made fast they set arrangements to pass the nigl ore curious left the boats and weut to the hol the sights; others went ashore and built regular camp fires on the levee, gathering around them and passing the night in singing patriotic songs. Some remained on board the boat, either trying to slecp, ing & social gam cards, telling storics, singing and all other conceivable yon was accompanied by a full drem els to wags. Each del corps. Theso helped to drive away the monotony by beat- ing tattoo, reveille, asscmbly and other martial aire.” Tway did some 3,000 of the Western delegates spend the night, 1t was really a glorious sight and one that will loug be re- ipated. It p in mimd mexmbered by those who par of the old scenes in camp, especially on the amival of & trausport witht reénforecwents. THE SCENE IN THE MORNING.

BEFORE THE CONVENTION MET. 1n the early morning hundreds of citizens aud de assembled in the hall which was soon filled. Mr. wan of the Penusylvania volunteers was introduced to the audience, and read a poem entitled *The Veteran. ' The ladies in the gallery then sang patriotic songs, and Professor Pope f in a comic song. In response to numerous jencores he then drew a very humorous parallel between the first and second Moses i prose, which was received with shouts of laughter. B. Van Riper of the New-Jersey delegation then came forward and made a forcible gpeech, followed by Col. Moodio of the 47th Ohio, who spoke at some length, INCIDENTS OF THR OPENING PROCEEDINGS. By this time the hour for assembliug was near at bard, and the delegations had commenced entering the hall. At 12 m. the Convention was called to order. Just at this time the Wisconsin delegation entered the hall carrying with them three stand of colors which had belonged to pome of the Wisconsin regiments carried in battle by them, They alko bad with them the Amerie agle 1 This eagle belonged to a prisate soldier in one of the Wis- consin regiments. Ho kept it with him in_camp, and it was with him in every battle. It was very tame and a great favorite with the membersof the regiment. During the Jatter part of the war Old Abe's owner was killed in buttle. The eagle was taken in charge by some of his former owner's friends and became the commion property of the regiment. He was mustered out with the rest of the boys, and has since been residing quictly ut home He coinds forward now to represent bis martyred owner and to denounce My Policy.” Old Abe was given a prominent position on the platform, where he tat perched over the natioual colors. THE SCENE WHEN THE DELEGATES ENTEREED THE HALL. It was 12} o'clock before all the delegates arrive d. As each delegation would enter the hall, cheer upou cheer would be given in their honor. THE FLAGS CARRIED BY THE DELEGATES. 1t was a noticeable fact that every delegation earried a flag that bad been carried in battle. Marylund had three, West Virginia those of the Ist, 3d, 4th, ith and 8th West Virginia Voteran Infant nsylva bad several.

REASSEMBLING OF THE CONY Notwithstanding the short time for din were all in seats on time, a8 the delegates to the Con- veution are here purely for business, and to judge from the actions of this day, they aere determined to consume as little time "as possible in trausacting that business. They have come bere to show the wen who are trying to destroy the country that those who tought to save itans willing to do so again if uecossary, The delegates are, on the whole, a fine set of men. They are the representat of the great Republic, and they do the country credit. ‘There are no of the petty jealousies existing between the members of the Convention as to who shall be officers or as to the course o be pursued. All seem to echo the same senti meuts—a guaruntee for a perpetual uvion, with freedom and equal rights to all. This sentence embodies all, and the soldiers assembled here intend putting this forth to the country as their platfori. GEN. LOGAX THE FIRST CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT.
