The Vutou State Convention.

The New Albany Ledger, in an article upon the
Union" State Convention to be held in this city
on Wednesday next. remarks:
There was time when we had strong faith
that the loyal men OF the country would be able
to cast aside all party trammes and unite for the
common good of the country till the rebellion was
suppressed. pence restored and the country saved.
When the extra session of Congress was held, in
July, lS6l and the Crittenden resolutions adopt
ell by an almost unanimous vote of the two
Houses, We tlattered ourselves that those who
voted for these resolutions did SO in good faith.
and We believed that they formed basis or
which all true patriots could for the time being
unite-the Administration honestly and in good
faith endeayoring to carry out the principles
therein laid down, and the former political OppO-
nents OF the President yielding him in return a
cordial support.
IL IS unnecessary 10 say. what every man of
whatever panty knows to toe true. that these an
ticipations have not been realized. A large MT
jority of the members Of Congress who voted for
the CriIienden resolves. have violated the pedg
they gave 10 the country when they so voted
and have pursued a course Numerically opposite
to that which they then voted to be the correct
one IL may be regarded too harsh to charge
that the Presidents friends who voted for the
Crittenden resolutions have since repudiated them
with deliberate design TO deceive the country.
1t may he that they think that circumstances are
"a tyr changed As 70 warrant them in abandoning
the principles then enuBcated. But we can as
sure them that there are thousands of loyal cti-
zeus who do not 20 think--they believe that
nothing whatever has occurred TO render the
abandonment OF the Crittenden programme either
necessary or proper; but. the other hand. that
there are many reasons why II should lie strictly
adhered to.
Ii is useless TO attempt to ignore the questions
which have formed the chief staples OF discussion
IN the present Congress. They will not down at
our the Journals OF the June Convention bid
ding ANY attempt 10 dodge them will prove
utterly futile In every school house in which a

men read, TO ask candidates whether they favor
or oppose abolition in the District Of Columbia
at tie expense Of the people; whether they op-
pose the Presidents plan OF taxing the public 20
buy up the Kentucky and Missouri slaves whether
they favor oppose the measures OF conf scation
and emancipation. &c, &c IL the June Con
