Another Union Convention.

AuOtncF Union CO0VcntlOns
Our readers will observe another call in
our paper for a Union Convention to be
held at Elkadcr on the 14th ult, for the
purpose Of selecting candidates for the Leg
islature, and the county offices.
We cannot help regretting the insertion
of the words "and in the ultimate and final
success Of Freedom" because it is very liza
bic to the construction that the government
has for its ultimate object the abolition of
slavery instead of the suppression and pun
ishment Of rebellion. 1t striks us the call
would have been more laconic, clear, and
comprehensive, had the above Objectionable
words been stricken out The invitation to
'all who sympathizc with the present ad-
nnistration, and are pledged to its support
in its struggle with rebellion and treason"
is comprehensive, and we hope will be gem
erously responded to. Let US attend this
''union convention" and all other "union
conventions" and do all we can to inaugu-
rate good loyal feeling towards the gov
ernment, and cement the hearts of all our
citizens in bona fde union saving measures.

ing willing martyr and submitting to the
proceeding when he had the power to pre-

capital and exciting sympathy. We leave
him to decide which horn of the dilemma
he will take. These facts we submit to our
fellow citizens not alone for the purpose of
defending ourselves from the charges pre-.
ferred against us but that all may sec to what
depths of degradation and infamy, a thing
claiming to be of the human species and to
exercise an influence in our midst will 60
