SYRACUSE, Sept Z-Hon Francis Herman Of
Oneida was elected temporary Chairman. On
ia king the Chair be addressed the Convention,
reviewing the state Of the country, and said it ID
our duty to meet The present danger, and do all
in our power to stay the ruin that seems impend-
ing. To this end it 10 our duty to oppose abol.
tlonism at the North and secessionism at the
South, which are equally making war on our
Government, and exhort you from my heart,
rs men and patriots, to consign both to COM
mon grave. The abolitionists Of the North,
through the ballot-box, arc seeking to retain
power, which is As destructive 40 death to the
institutions Under which We live. Loud ap.
plause. Let US take up position which shall
enable 10 to effectually put abolitionism down
at the ballotbox. We care net what men are
in charge Of the Government 1t is our duty to
protect and preserve that Government, and re.
sist with arms, and If need be with our lives the
men who seek to overthrow it. We will say to
every body, at home and abroad, that this must
be no war for the emancipation of slavery, but
war for the preservation Of the Government,
and Of the rights of all sections of the Union.-
The time has come when the position of great
party must DO decisively taken, for no negative
policy can preserve the country from destruction
at this time It is true that, unhappily for the
country, We have not the power 1t this time to
administer the Government, but we can clearly.
boldly and firmly, mark out the decisive course
of action which we propose, in order to rescue
the country from the dangers that surround it.
He further says the Democratic party can give
tone to this war, 90 that it may be saved; that
it was war to uphold the Constitution, to pre-
serve the Governments; to give to every section
Of the country their just rights under the Con-
stitution, and 90 that it may be known that We
have fought to put down this rebe. lion from love
to our whole country. and not from hate to our
brethren of the South, and that We are ready to
proclaim that ss soon as this armed rebellion is
over, we are prepared to meet the South again
in liberal spirit, and to guarantee full consti-
tutional rights to all
