"Resolusa, That the calamities of the pre-
sent rebellion have been brought upon the
nation by the infamous doctrines Of nulliti
cation and secession, promulgated by Calhoun
and denounced by Jackson in 1882, and Ie-
lterated by the Convention held in the city
of Columbus on the llth inst. We de.
nounce them as incompatible with the unity,
integrity power and glory of the American
Republic
"Res0lved, That the war must 20 on with
the utmost vgor, till the authority Of the
Federal Government is re established, and
the old flag floats again securly and triumph
antly over every State and Territory of the
| Union.
"Resolve1 That a the present exigencies
OF the republic, we hy aside personal prefer
ences and prejudices, and, henceiorth. till
the war is ended, will draw no party lines
but the great line between those who sustain
the Government of the country and those
who oppose it--betweeu those who rejoice
in the triumph Of Our armies and those who
rel oice in the triumph Of the enemy.
"RegolUea That immortal honor and graf.
tude is due to our brave and patriotic sol.
ders in the field, and everlasting shame and
| disgrace to any citizen or party who with>
holds it. That, sympathizng with the army
in its hardship, andproud OF its gallanLry,
the lovers Of the Union will stand by it, and
will remember, aid and support those who
are disabled, and the families OF those who
fall fighting Tor their country.
"Resolved, That confling in the honesty,
patriotism and good sense of the President
we pledge to him our support in his efforts
| IA pnt 6Our tho rnba1lIOp
"Reso'uea That the present Governor,
David Tod, is an honest and noble public
servant, and that his official conduct deserves
to receive the appreciation OF all loyal peo
ple."

disunion, alter which the Convention ad

Speeches are being made to night at the
