The Chicago Convention.

On the Doth Of this month will as
scmble at Chicago the most important
body of mon called together in the
United States since the adoption of
the Constitution, more important in
fact, than has assembled in the world
for centuries. Upon the wisdom
and,unity of their action rests the hope
Of the nation. The prayers of thou
sands are ascendisg' to heaven that
their labors may be conducted with but
one view, the perpetuation, under one
government, of all these United States
now estranged from each other.
Contrast the convention about to
assemble with the one held at Balti-
more in June. The Baltimore Con-
vention was not composed Of the rep
resentatives of the people. The NOM
nation Of Lincoln was foregone
conclusion. The power that made the
delegates dictated the nominee, but that
power was not the American people.
The manner of the reception of that
nomination by the people, the dearth
of enthusiasm that is every where ex-
hibited, the occasional efforts of
hitherto strong partizans of that party
TO divest themselves Of the fraud, cor
ruption and imheoility that attaches
to them in case of cordial support, all
Indicate that the people are FESTIVE
under the yoke; that they are not will
ing to place their ''lives, fortunes and
sacred honors," for another term of
four years, in the hands of the present
administration. Devoted to the Union
of our fathers, admiring and reveIing
our system of government, DESTROYS
of the preservation Of the Constitu-
tional rights of the States, and the in
tegrity of the government of the
United States, praying for restora-
ton of the happy times that have
passed away, thepeople have sent their
delegates to Chicago, to debate and de-
liberatoupon these great questions, and
nominate standard bearers, whose
efforts, if elected, will be devoted to the
consummation and realization of these
hopes. We anticipate no divisions in
that convention. The restoration of
an honorable peace will be the object
and aim of all. ~
The signs of the times are, that after
four years of bloody, civil war, the
contending parties are willing to try
what craftsmanship can accomplish.
We confidently predict that if the peo-
PIE heed conservative counsels, if they
will but calmly reason upon the present
posture of affairs, if they will firmly
resolve that all their efforts shall be
devoted to restoration of the Union,
and that alone, they viii transmit to
their descendants, not an exhausting
civil war, not q despotism, not subiu-
gated provinces, not separate nation
alities, but the old republic, that was
the pride of every freeman; with the
one great lesson, that this war was
designedto teach impressed upon their
minds: Let no man in any section of
this country hereafter attempt to
ALLEVIATE the feelings of ono section of
the country from another, but all obey
the written law.
