PHILADELPHIA, May IA meeting was
held this morning at the Constitutional
headquarters. There were able addresses
by the delegates of the late Convention. A
procession was formed, headed by Il band
which proceeded to the La Pierrie House.
to serenade Senator Bell.
Mr.. Bell was introduced from the balcony
by James r. Ingersoll, who eulogized the
action of the Convention and the candidates
presented.
Mr. Bell was received with cheers. lie
said it Wonld he contrary to human nature
if he did not feel deeply sensible of the
honor paid him, but he also felt that the
assemblage was mainly to approve the action
of the Convention. He did not appear to
make speech upon the political topics of
the day, hut rendered his thinks for the
present manifestation. He alluded to the
causes which lei to the Conventional he
ing the distruSt of both the Democratic aud
Republican parties. He trusted that The
party to succeed them would be party of
the Union. The Constitution OF the country
required the people to come forth in their
might and manifest determination 10 call
back the country 10 the time and objects
of the institutions OF republican govern
ment, and not exhaust its energies in OBJ
structions. 1t is manifest that the public
confidence in the state of the republic has
deteriorated within the last twenty years.
The Convention therefore wisely banished
from its consideration all exciting topics that
had scattered distrust between the North and
the South, knowing that it would lead to
no public good. That Convention thought
fit, among such host of worthless, to select
him, it is compliment OF whicji 1 feel my
very unworthineSs. He concluded by trust
ing that the party founded with such auspices
as harmony and good feeling, would be sue
cessful i'll establishing n new era, and that
the Convention shall not have labored in
vain. His course for the last twenty gears
was well known and it would he needless
to refer TO it again. Thanking the crowd
for the honor conferred ON him, Mr.. Bcl} re-
tired amid hearty, though not general
cheering.
