EXCELLENT SELECTIONS FOR The

A SOLID PLATFORM.

attendance on tue Delegnte and Mass Conyer
tions assembled here to- day. The city b.
the appearance Of yast camp, human being
Of the Scloto to the plains stretching cas-
ward. 4 score Of bands, In as many diffarc1
directions, are making the aIr resonant, whit
above the brazen strains, the beating Of drum
and tho noise and confusion of the street,
rise the gladstone shouts of the loyal masse.

In attendance at the Peace Convention OF las
week, md therefose 1t Is not proper for hiG
to venture comparison between tho two d
semblages as regards numbers; hut there ia
comparison which may be made with prc
priety, and which will suggest itself to an
candid person: The Convention Of last wee
YVES m assemblnge Of men bliud with part

the place Of love Of country. The Conyen
tion Of to-day is entirely antagonistic to tn

are united and devoted in the cause Of coln

above the stand erected for officers ant
speakers. To-day the city Is alive With flags
the Sfdtt&sndn office being almost the only on,
from which the stars aud stripes are not dis
played. They festoon the streets, futter from
the heads Of horses, and stream from omni

Whatever can demonstrate the zeal and en-
thusiasm for the Union is brought out, ant
the city wears the appearance Of u gala day.
Another difference is noticeable. 1asi
week hardly blue coat was to be seen on the
street. Tie soldiers seemed to bo conscious
That they were not regarded with favor bY

ham Convention, In which tho soldiers are
praised without stint, did not reassura the
blue coats. They Instinctiycly understood
that it was compliment paid out Of respect

md no tribute to their gallantry In the field,
aud no Endorsement OF the Cause In which
11ey are engaged. To-day, however, the sol
ttiers, with their blue uniforms, arc abundant,
md seem to take hearty interest in the pro.
ceedings. It Ia their party which holds the
Convention to-day, for 1t is war party, with
ont regard to political distlnctIons-a party
That will renew It's pledges OF fealty to the
Union, and its support Of the Government and
tue army In the prosecution Of tho war to u
successful termination.
Another difference is noticeable. The en-.
thuttasm and resolution OF the people assem-
b1ed lerc to-day Is not in the suilen spirit Of
. desperate minority, which, in its bitterness,
denounced not only the Administration, but
The war, aud all the measures taken to prose.
cute It.; but 1t Is that Of people satisfied
with the business Of their cause, patient Of
the errors and blunders OF their rulers, and
full Of faith that in the end the eauss, will
triumph, the Union be restored and the war
terminated by the thorough and complete
subjugatiou Of those in rebellion.
There has been some speaking this morn
ing, but " no means SO much as We had last
week. While the Convention was In session
~ the afternoon, an Immense crowd assem-
bled on the vest front of the Capitol., The
principal speech WAS made by Judge Nc
Cook, the father Of the "McGook family."
TIC silrer-headed old patriot talked as earnest
US be lights, md he held the crowd for over
On hour spcll-bound. His denunciation Of
Vn]iandigllam and his "Democracy'' was
1noEt bitter. The burden Of his speech was,
that In this war there can be but two parties,
patriots and traitors; that the Union must be
preserved, and that It can only be done thor
onghly by hard blows, breaking the military
The preliminary meeting Of tho delegates
was held In the Athrneum. Hon. Samuel
Galloway called them to order at II O'Clock,
and on his motion, Hon. L. D. Campbell, Of
Entler, was chosen temporary Chairman, and
r. ". Clark, Of CleFmont, temporary Secre-
tary.
On taking the chair, Mr.. Campbell acknow-
lodged the compliment, and the warm ap-
plause with which he YVES greeted In his
remarks.
