Hon. b. j.. Wade, Chairman Of The
Committee on Resolutions, made the fol-
lowing report
ResolUed, That the calamities Of the
present rebellion have been brought upon
this nation by the Infamous doctrines of
notification and secession promulgated
by Calhoun and denounced by General
Jackson in 1882, and reiterated by the
Convention held In the city of Columbus
on the 18th inst. We denounce them as
incompatible with the unity, integrity,
power and glory Of the American Re-
public.
Resolred, That the war must go on with
the utmost vigor till the authority of the
National Government is re-established
and the old flag floats again securely and
triumphantly over every State and Ter
ritory Of the Union.
Resolved That in the present exigen-
cies of the Republic, we lay aside per-
sonal preferences and prejudices, and
henceworth till the war is ended will
draw no party line, but the great line
between those who sustain the Govern
ment and those who oppose it-between
those who rejoice in the triumph of our
arms aud those who rejoice in the tri-
umph of the enemy
Resolved, That immortal honor and
gratitude are due TO our brave and pat
riotic soldiers in the field, and everlast-
ing shame and disgrace to any citizen or
party who withholds IL; that sympa.
thizing with the army in its hardships,
and proud of its gallantry, the lovers of
the Union will stand by il, and will re-
member, aid and support those who are
disabled, and the families of those who
fall fighting for their country.
ReSolved, That conllding in the honesty,
patriotism and good sense of the Pres
ident, we pledge to him our support of

bellion.
Resolved, That the present Governor,
David Tod, is an honest, able public SER

serves and receives the appreciation of
all loyal people.
During the session Of the Convention,
the following earnest address was read
from some Of the Ohio Volunteers in the
Army of the Cumberland:
"TRIUEE, Tenn, June 8.
'GENTLEMEN: You have been selected
by the representatives of a very large
number of the soldiers of Ohio. now
serving with the Army of the Cumber-
land, TO attend the Union Convention.

18th inst, for the nomination of Govern

Convention, nor the people of Ohio, will
deem this action of her citizen soldierv.

ticipate, even in the most remote degree,
in party or political strifes at home, but
solely from most earnest wish that civil
State and political action may be SO con-
Quoted as TO contribute TO the great OBJ
ject which all true patriots, whether citi-
zens or soldiers, must have at heart, the
maintenance of the Government and the
restoration Of the Union. With parties.
as SUCH we have long since ceased to
sympathize, and to-day the Army of the
Cumberland has but this platform of po-
litical principles: AN unlimited use of
all the energies and all the resources of
the Government for the prosecution of
the war until the rebellion is subjugated
and the Union restored!
Though formerly divided by ell tho
party distinctions OF their time, We are
to-day band of brothers. standing firm
ly and united upon this broad platform.
We ask of each other no other reason VIII Y
we are so united, but we gratefully ac-
cept the fact aud let that suffice. We do
not discuss whether slavery be right or
wrong; whether the stakeholder or Alb
olitonist is the primary cause of the re-
bellion IL is enough for us that the re-
bellion now exists, and that we are bound
by the heritage OF the past, and the hope
OF the future, TO put it down. We did
not refuse Co sustain the Government be-
fore the Administration inaugurated the
policy Of emancipation. We will not
desert 1t now that il has. The eillcieLcy
and continued harmony of your army,
depend IN great measure, upon the
State Government at home. II has pleas
