How the Seceders from the Charleston Convention
viii relish what said Of them aud Of their rumorcd re-
turn TO the adjourned meeting in Baltimore, by the
Washington States and Union, do not know nor
what that journal will say or do if they should return
But the States and Union is outspokcn and determined
Il SAYS
t is whispered about that the cceders have repent
ed OF their act and propose TO return to their al
ourned Convention az Baltimore and unite IN completing
It's work. As little respect the Judgment or patrl-
osm Of the secedcrS low compelled TO esti-
mate their real devotion the best interests OF the States
they represented feel be dutyO defend them
against the SANDER that they have ever, for moment
contemplated such act Of gross stuuhcauOn ana ioly
They have no more right 70 appear and hold seats al
Baltimore than at Chicago. They retired IRON Charles
ton, and m the act Of separation, made II lmpOsole u
return But they proceeded to organize new ConVen'
ton. They gave in their allegiance 10 new body and
new faith They Stigmatized the Convention from when
they retired the trump of the party-lts ree-soh
wing How painfully they regard the effort oil the
pOcymauagers IN this city bring them back, to com
pei them again to secede and again to seek cooperation
with those whom they have recently condemned and re-
pudated."
Tse Seceders, imagine are little inclined to go
back, the Dougasites are to have them return
least infer IRON the Charleston Mercury which,
speaking Of the address got up at Washington for the
purpose Of bringing about reconciliation, says;
We glad 20 Learn that not representative from
Alabama or South Carolina will sign it. We have not
yet the address, but it appears TO Us that It can be
nothing else but piece Of unparalleled mperuence,
and foolish &c impertiuent. What business have
members Of Congress 70 counsel the seeding delegates
from the Charleston Conventions Who asked their
couusels Or what responsibility have the seeding mem
5ers Of the Convention 20 the members OF congress -
Aud when 10 is remembered that the relations OF the Sc
ceding members towards the Convention terminated
with their secession how absurd is the request that they
shall return TO the Convention, None Of those men
can or will and the convenient substitutes who
NAV have themselves appointed TO the Baltimore Con-
yeuton celebrations be necessary to warm their
patriotism gain their acquieSceuce. 1t the Interests
aud honor Of the South Instead of party paramount
u the consideration of these Southern members of Con-
res 10 appears 20 that the Transactions they dali
v Witnessing In Congress would render it impossible for
chem 90 recommend any which could tend dis
tract the couuse or weaken the stern resolves of the
south Homestead Tariff aud Wimot Proviso bills, are
usoenv rushed through the House OF Representative
lud instead Of presenting becoming front Of resistance
20 these iufbe indications OF the colonization of the
South they talk Of sending forth weak circumstances to
-he brave men who are striving TO f the South up TO
policy adequate to the dangers which surround her II
barely possible that the orgiuatOrs and sguers OF the
contemplated address wish prove to the people of the
South how utterly unreliable aud rotten Is everything
connected with the General Government"
