Oh! IL no faces we're beheld on earth,
But toiling manhood, and repining age.
No welcome eyes of innocence and mirth
To look upon as kindly, who would wage
The gloomy battle for himself alone
Or through the dark of the exchanging c'oou
Look wistfully for light. Who wonld not groan
Beneath his daily task, and weep aloud?
Bot little children take US BY the hand.
And gaze with tasteful cheer into our eyes,
Patience and fortitude beside us stand,
In woman's shape, and watt to heav' our sig ;
The guiltess child holds back the arm of guilt
Upraised to strike, and woman may atone
With sinless tears for sins of man, and melt
The daming seal when evil deeds are done.

Address of The Governors Convention at
Altoona.

The right of any person to retain an
tqority to compel any portion Of the
subjects of the national Government
to rebel against it, or maintain its enc
mics, implies, where allowed, the pos
session of such authority to rebel them
selves; and therefore the right to es-
tablish martial law or military govern
ment IN State or Territory in rebel
lion implies the right and the duty of
the Government to liberate the minds
OF all persons living therein,by appro-
pirate proclamation and assurance of
protection, in order that all who are
capable, intellectually aud morally, of
loyalty and obedience, may not be
forced into treason as the willing tools
of rebellious traitors.
To have contributed indefinitely to
the most extensive support aud stay to
the rebellion, would have been, In our
Judgment, unjust to the people whose
treasure aid lives are made a willing
sacrifice on the altar Of patriotism. 1t
would have been previously unjust
against the wife who is compelled to
surrender her husband; against the pa
rent who is TO surrender his child to the
hardships of the camp and the peril of
battle, and in favor of rebel masters
permitted to retain their slaves. 1t
would be a final decision alike against
humanity, the rights and dignity of the
Government, against sound and wise
national policy.
The decision of the President t.
strike at the root of the rebellion will
lend new vigor to the efforts, and new
life and hope to the hearts of the PEG
pie. Cordially rendering to the Presi-
dent our respectful assurances of per
sonal and official confidence, we trus,
and believe that the new policy now
inaugaratcd will be crowned with sue
cess, and Will give speedy and triumph
ant victories over our enemies, and Sc
cure to the nation aud people the bless
ings and favor of Almighty God. We
believe that the blood of the heroe.
who have already fallen, and of thns,
who-may yet give up their lives to-thei
country, will not have been shed il
vain.
The splendid valor of our soldiers
their patient endurance, their mani,
patriotism and devotion to duty, de
mand from us and from all their coun
trymen the homage of the snceres
gratitude, and the pledge of our con
slant reinforcement and support.
A just regard t, these brave men
whom we have contributed to place il
the field, and for the importance of tn,
duties which may lawfully pertain to u.
hereafter, has called us into friendl,
conference; and now, presenting
to our national Chief Magistrate thi,
conclusion of our deliberations, VT
