PRIDAY MORNING, AUG, 17, 1606, | Cording to the Goveruinen: enteTlment several ou siscneamsatibinicain - —~ | thousan! recruita were d Now. whet we degre THE CONVENTION. to know is thie: Tea the | /ame for that expen- Tre Philadelphia Convention b te work, and it now devolves upon the peo le to examine that work, and to page judgrneat upon ite merite, There are two general points to contider in weigh- ing the charmeter of the Convention, First, the conduct and béaring of the delegates comprising i. Rodond, the platform of principles which it bas adopted ae an expression of sentiments upon questions of nations! politica. With regard to the first point it ie not necessary to eay much now, ‘or Abe official proceedings of the Convention are slono sufficient evidence of the harmony, good feeling ana @incerity of purpose manifested by the dele- ga'es from both sections of the Union. It may be eaid that this harmony was the result of skt!! ni leadership and per-arrangement ; and it may be sald too, that the loyal bearing of the Southern delegates was dictated by consil- erations of policy rather than of feeling, But there is no no good reason to believe that the Philadelphia Coaveution was any more under the contro! of leaders than political convertions wsually are; and ag for the professed loyalty of the Southern delegates, we must certainly allow them as much conmderation as that eccorded to the criminal in the conrt of justicepresumptive innocence until proven otherwise, They may have acted « part in this matter; but if #0, they have acted that part well, for they gave the strongest evidence of ain- cerity when they endorsed the platform upon which they now stand, Of the princip ee which the Convention announ- tes an thelr platform, there can be but one opinion in the minds of men whose views are not warped by partizan feeling. The platform is sound in every timber, It is strictly loyal throughout, true to she Union, true to the Constitution and true to hberty. It declares emphatically that the Union ie indissolubie; that ‘no State or Convention of Bistes has the right to withdraw from the Union,” There is not s word in the platform that can be sive eureliment Liur Comtalttee or to the Wer Department? If the Comrnitiee bad not a cefnite arrangement with tho War Dapartment worreby the quota wae to be based upon their eoroliment then they are re exper iiture which thas enrollment entejled upon the city. Uf they hada definite arrangementct that kind, ae they cla med t> heave, then the War Department is chargeable With infidelity, Once more we call upon Mr. Oason Tirst, Chairman of the Committee, to explain this matier and relieve bimrelf and his confrerea from an \pjunous imputation, which they oiher sise cannot escape, ler to the Volunteering Aponmble tor the heavy Seldiers’ Extra Hounty Tar Pesmmaster Genera), or whoever is to have charge of the disbursernent ef bev nty under the lew paseed at the Jest seesion of Con gress, aboull give the soldiers some inform: abont the tme when they are likely to receive their money. We have received a number of com rounteations from ecidiers, askivg for such infor. mation, and we know thet they are anzious to learn something definite aboutit, Various stories are in circulation about the length of ime thet for bounty, one report making it not less than three years, We cannot see why it shoul! require more then three or four months to do thie work, Uniess there ia to ben great deal of red tape bual- ness aboutity but something reLable ought to be mate pullic, There is another question, about the order in which he applications will be attended to, Will they be settled according to the date of eolistinest, or will the rule of *firss come firat served'' be adopte|? These things are of much importance to the soldiers, aud we hope that, n order to setal! doubta at reat, di finite official in out delay. conmtrued into @ palliation of the relei- That Terrible Yankee Flement! lion, and im endormng this feature of it, Ir is distressing to read, as we doin ame of te Southern "Delegates renounced the | the Southern papers, about the danger to which right of secession now and forever. The seventh | Southern society is subjected by contact with the section of the platform, which relates to the ques ton of slavery, gives the Radicals no ground for feult finding upon that point. It declares that * Slavery is abolished and forever prohibited, and there ‘@ neither design nor purpose on the part of “Yankee” element. The following t from the Houston (lexas) Jormnar, shows that the morality of that spotless section is in great dancer of being engu!lphed, submerged, wiped out, by the flood of vice that Is now sweeping upon Texas the Southern Biates shat it should ever | from the lad of the Yankees: ental “There ina tide of immorality sweeping from odie Preeti es Pl Oe Pyldrote the N rth © the close of the war that requires the jurisdiction of the Southern States.” This | gi) our vigilance and the bewt efforts of our citizens language pute the Bouth upon an unmis- sakable record with regard to slavery, ant leaves fo foundation for cavil on the part of Northeen man. The status of the freedmen, os declared by this platform, aleo disarme# criliciam, ‘*The franchised slaves, in al! the States of the Union, should receive in common with al! their in- pabitants equal protection in every right of person and property." What more than equality with the whites in respect to the mghis of person and property can the freedmen expect’ They must pave the ballot, it may be aad. This platform makes 0 objection to tha’, but it declares that all bbe Btates have the Constitutional right to preacribe qualifications for the elective {ranchise—s right which bas never, until recently, been disputed. The platform a)so declares that the Governmont is ander no obligation to, end never wil! assure, the rebel debt; the national debi, however, must be held ascred and inviolate ; and that ‘itisthe duty of the National Government to recognive the services of the Federal soldiers and sailors in the contest just enced." The platform throughout breathes the senti- ments of the conservative peoplo of the North, and the very fact that the Bouthern delegates on- dorsed its principles speaks well for their present loyalty to the Union, The adiiroas is sim- ply an amplification of the views embodied in the platform, Both documents are in koeping with the spirit which characterized the Convention throughout its session ; but the political effect will depend chiefly uron whether the Southern gates truly reflected the temper and sentiments of their constituents, If future events shall prove that their action was dictated by sinister motives, the part which they played will be of no avail. If, however, the Southern people refuse to endorse the ste and attitude of their delegates, their friends etthe North will find that they have but little political capital upon which to conduct a cam- paign. The Conservative men of the North, uo matter with what party they lave bitherio affpli- sted, will be inclined to endorse the proceedings of the Convention, and'!f its principles are stricily adhered to, it will become the siarting point of » material change in our national politica—a return trom sectional to National parties, to provent, More fearful tn ite effects over our socially moral country wil be toiatide, unless it be checke', than any crevasse that ever lonned the levees of the Miss.aeppicr the dykes of Hol- land.” Can nothing be done to save the moraliiy of Texas trom this dreadful tate? Will no power interfere to shield the virgim purity of the Toue Star from Yankee contamination’ We implore Goveruor TawockmorTton to at once take niessures for protecting Texas against ihe fearful calamity which is now impending, Notes from the People New Vonn, Atut Editor of the Sun: Bin- Aa vou bave interested yourself in favor of the work. ng peop the extortions aud swindling opernt fthe city railroad cowpanies. | addiess to you the following statements and propositions: Asam passenger en the Tenth avenue line, t reavesied the conduetor to fur nish me with twenty (20) tickets for $1.03, as pre- ecribed by law.
