party, who will make a bold effort TO elect

and restore peace-long desired and Ardently

the nom nations and platform is concerned,
every body knows that, substantially, ! was
committed In detail TO all that the convention
has now done, long before delegate was
chosen, and even long before the convention
itself was called.
The secret OF the success OF the convention
Ia, that the American people are q wise, true,
aud liberty-loying aud humane nRtiUni aud,
being such, II could, under the existing cir
cumstances, do nothing, and say nothing, more
or lees, than just what the onventiOn has now
spoken in lie name, and has recommended
shall be done. For the present, let the people
scnd men and supplies TO the national armies
In the field, and thus enable them to i" fight It
out on the same lines If II takes all summer"
The eleCJi0n OF Lincoln and johnson at the

AN AUTOMATIC PUDDLER.-A machine for
pudding iron has been invented and applied
at the iron works In Boston, by Mr.. Griffith,
the manager. Its operation is thus described;
As soon as the ''meltug moment" comes,
and the hard work Of he ping the iron curds
aud whey continually stirred arrives-When the
pudder should begin to straiU back, muscle,
aud nerve, and perspire from every pore OF his
naked skin, he attaches his pudding iron To q
long bar, with a rest that does duty for hands,
and which hangs suspended in front Of the fur
mace, turns on the steam, and Immediately tue
iron bar begins pudding with measured turn,
twist and poke, which works tue iron quite
clear from the bottom and out of the jaws Of
the furnace, and puddlss II about into the iirm
condition that renders II agreeable to the sbin-
gleri and all this while the puddler takes his
ease. The iron puddled by this machine Is OF
Au even quality throughout and without a
flaw.

The correspondent Of tho Cincinnati Com

mnurus sin silence, and sorrow, and tears,"
the base ingratiiude of parties and republics,
while the copperhead fraternity are determin-
ing what disposition Is to be made OF him.
In the meantime nobody goes to see him;
nobody talks about him; and no anxious and
enthusiastic crowd gathers about his resldence
in the coul Of the evening, fighting for sight
at the martyr and exile.
A fast woman, or sword swallower, or double
headed calf, would attract twice the attention
that Is accorded TO this martyr of constltu-
tional liberty. The drama of exile has proved
to be farce, and the exile, II not absolutely
hissed off the stage, has the cold shoulder turn
cd to him by his audience.
Some little anxiety has been manifested to
hear the particulars of Mr.. Vallandigham's q
Journey from Canada. In a public speech,
/ Clement declined to communicate, and said
that was his secret. 1t is secret no longer.
