triotic sentiments with which it abounded.
The committee on resolutions reported the
following platform, which was adopted with.
out dissenting voice:
ResoLyed, That the present deplora-
BILE civil war has been forced upon the
country by the disunionists of the South
fern States, now in revolt against the
aIound the Capital.
ResoIsed, That in this national emer-
gency we Danish al feeling of mere
passion or resentment. and will recollec:
only our duty to the whole country; that
this war was not waged upon our part
in any spirit of oppression. nor for any
purpose os conquest or subjugation; nor
for the purpose of overthro"ing Or inter
fsring with the rights or established in
stitutiOns of the States; hut to defend
and maintain The supremacy Of the Con
stitution, and to preserve the Union,
with ali the dignity, equality and rights
of the several States unimpaired; and as
Soon as these objects are accomplished,
the war ought to cease.
Resolved, In the language of the Hon.

"Our Secession neightoFs never speak

calling it "f4incoln's war" Why is
this so2 Every man Of them kIiS%S,

would have been gun fired if the

not be ignorant of the fact that the
rebels had stolen property and money
of the Government, and had concen.
trated a large military force and
erected batteries to reduce Fort Sum
tor and Fort Pitkens, and. finally did
fire on and reduce to possession Fort
Sumter, before the President called
into. service a single man for the dis
pcrsion of the rebels and the sdefense
of the Capitol and the other public
property, They, we presume, would
have had the President stand still
with folded arms and permitted the
ebels to have taken Pickens, Wash

they desired. This wouldhatc filled

alleging his belief that the majority of the
people of Kentucky approved of the pre-
cautionary measures adopted for their defence
against armed rebellion, and in the closing
paragraph of his letter thus pointedly rebukes
the Governor for his lack of patriotism
"I most cordially sympathige with your Ex-
