The Terms Of Peace.

Mr.. Hiram Mccullough, who was a dele
gate from this county to the Chicago Con-
vention, and is supposed to know something
of the feeling and opinion of that body, said
in a speech in the Court House, last week
"Elect George B. Mcclellan, and after
his Inauguration there will never be another
gun fired. He will make such proposals to
the South as will be accepted, and will, in
my opinion, induce the seeded States TO
come back into the Union"
Mr. Jefferson Davis, who is the leading
spirit of the Rebellion, and is presumed to
speak for the South, said in his recent inter
view with Col. Jaquess and Edmund Kirk,
~ shall at any time be pleased to receive
proposals for peace on the basis of our indie
pendence. 1t will be useless to approach
me with any other"
Here we have the declaration of Jefferson
Davis in which is embodied the settled sen.
timent of the leaders of the Rebellion YET
in the very face of it we are told that McClel
tons that will be accepted. What sort Of
propositions can he offer other than those
desired by the rebels, that they will accepts
None. And right well does Mr.. Mccullough
and every Copperhead with sense enough tc
go in out of the rain, know that fact. Mr.
Mccullough knoirs, ESQ he asscrts) that pro
positions will be made to, and accepted by,
the rebels if Gen. Mcclellan is elected and
inaugurated, and that not another gun will
be fired. And he 6elicres, Cat least he says
SOY that the States in Rebellion will come
again into the Union.
Now, every man knows, as well as Mr.
Mccullough, that such propositions as he
alludes to, will be made to the rebels if the
Copperhead party comes into power; but
nobody unless he be fool or an ingrained
Copperhead believes the self.styled !!Con.
federate States" will ever submit to the
authority of the Federal Government until
that they will form a peaceable union with
the loyal States, unless the loyal States go tc
them and acknowledge Jefferson Davis as
our rghtful President. 1t is folly to say
Mcclellan and his party will not consent tic
so dishonorable peace. We know the
leaders of the party and their antecedents
and know right well the men who formed
the Chicago platform are willing for an igno
minous surrender of every principle for
which we have been fighting during the past
four years, in order to accomplish their ends
And we know further that the Copperhead
party in this county stand ready to endorse
hn haca octfh 10, i b,, To
Davis, and to condemn the noblest one that
can be done by Abraham Lincoln. Men Of
Cecil, can you support such party?

The LabOring Man.

Every laboring man should vote for the
new Constitution, because it provides for a
system of free schools, which will enable
him to educate his children, and fit them for
any position in life that their talents entitle
them to occupy. Mothers of limited means,
who have large families of children, whom
you wish to receive liberal education, send
your husbands out on Wednesday or Thurs
day next, to vote for the new Consultation.
By that act, some of you may enjoy the sat
isfaction of seeing your sons and daughters
at future day honored by the highest posi-
tons in the land.

The Union County Convention.

The Union County Convention, which as
sembled at Elkton, on Thursday, last, met
in the Court House, and organized at
O clock, P. NJ.
Mr.. j. J. Mccullough, of North East,
was chosen Chairman, and Mr.. w. I. Rich
ardson, of Charlestown. Secretary.
The objectof the Convention being the
election Of five delegates to the State Con

18th inst, and five delegates to the Congress
sional Convention, in the event of the rati-
fcation of the new Constitution, by the peo-
pie, on the 18th and 18th of the present
month.
The delegates chosen to the State Con-
vention, whose business it will be to nomi-
nate State officers, were Jacob Tome, David
Scott, J. J. Mccullough, w. J. Jones and
E. P. Bowen, Esqs. Those appointed to
the Congressional Convention were George
Earle, F. G. Parke, Barclay Reynolds,
Enoch Mccullough and A. B. Owens, Esqs.
On motion of W. j. Jones, Esq, a com.
mittee was appointed by the Chair, compos-
ed of W. P. Ewing, Jas. S. Crawford and
W. J. Jones, Esqs.. to ascertain the number
and whereabouts of soldiers belonging to
this county, at present in the different hos
pitfalls, and to make arrangements for theil
return home in order to cast their votes al
the Constitutional election.
The following resolution, endorsing the
course of the Hon. J. A. J. Creswell, in the
last Congress, and instructing the delegation
from this county to use all honorable means
to secure his denomination, was unanim ously
adopted by the Convention:
ReSolred, that this Convention cordially
approves of the course of the Hon j. A. j.
Creswell in the last Congress, and hereby
instructs our delegation to the Congressional
Convention to use all fair and honorable
means to secure his denomination for Con
gress, believing that as he accepted former
nomination under uniavorable crcumstan,
ces, he is now fully entitled to renomina.
ton.
On the adoption of this resolution, Mr..
Creswell, who was in town, was sent for,
and informed by the Chair of the sense Of
the Convention, to which Mr.. Creswell ten
dered his thanks for this acknowledge OF
respect and approval of his course in Con-
gress, by the constituents of his native county,
in short speech, which was fervent, patri-
otic, and eloquent and in which he pledged
himself in the future, as in the past. to the
cause of emancipation in the State and in
the nation, and the support of every other
measure that will tend to destroy the rebel,
lion.
A motion was made by w. J. Jones. Esq,
that when the Convention adjourn it be to
meet again on Thursday the 10Th inst; and
also that the Chair be instructed to appoint a
Central Committee for this county, and re.
port the same when the Convention assem-
bles. Both of which motions were adopted
and the Convention adjourned.

Bay" We shall not be surprised if the
South agree to the abandonment of slavery
sooner than the Democratic party. Even
now General Grant, who fought and bled
for the rebellion, is an emancpationist and
in the Union, while Mcclellan, Seymour,
Vallandgham, Wood, Woodward, Voor-
bees, Harris, and other such "expoundcrs
of the Constitution" are the conservators
of slavery, and more or less disposed to
take sides with the rebellion. We shall not
wonder seeing that the sons of rebel plan
tiers and the increasing ranks of converted
Southern men are so thoroughly opposed to
the resurrection of slavery, if the Demo
cratic party yet learns its bitterest lesson
from those who were formerly rebels. The
moral doctrine of the Democracy is incon-
tinently absurd, and far behind the age 1t
is strange that, with all its partially for the
Southern side of politics, the Democratic
party has not yet recommended to the South
the same methods of "conciliation and for
bearance" which it has urged upon the
North Press.
