Gen Chalmer told this correspondent
that although it was against the policy o
his Government to spare negro soldier

SPRING.

With patience We have waited,
For thy genial breath, young Spring,
Now let thy feathered warblers
Old Winters requiem sing.
Full long his chilling sceptre,
Above US has been held,
And our hopes of springtime beauties,
Long enough his visage filed
Come; bid the cold usurper,
To his Polar haunts away,
And let thy cheering sunbeams,
Over the landscape play.
With mild and tempting brcezes,
And warm, soft falling showers,
Coax from their dreary coverts,
The timid, blushing flowers.
Come, clothe the field and meadow,
In garb of beauteous green,
And let the trees and shrubs reflect
The overpleasing sheen.
When nature, for Spring garments,
Leaves Winters dull coy'ring fall,
Man, for change in his apparel
Upon PYLE should make call,
nd see the splendid assortment Of Cloths,
Jassimcres, Vestings, &C., which he has
ust opened. They take down anything
verseen in Easton.

Union State Convention.

The loyal men of Pennsylvania com.
prising the National Union Party will
meet in State Convention in the Hall of
the House of Representatives, at HAIR
RISBURG, at noon, on
THURSDAY, April %, 1864.
Each district will be entitled to the
same representation it now has in the
State Legislature, and the delegates will
be chosen at such times and in such
manner as shall be directed by the re-
spectiye County Committees.
The State Convention is called for the
purpose of placing in nomination an Elec-
toral ticket, selecting delegates at large
to the National Convention OF the Union
party to be held at Baltimore on the 7th
of June, and taking such action as it may
deem proper in reference to the approach
ing Presidential canvass.
The selection of the district delegates
from Pennsylvania to the National Con-
vention is left-where it properly belongs
to the people assembled in their Coun-
ty Convention, but the different County
Committees are earnestly requested to a
dopt such measures as will procure full
attendance at their respective conven-
tons, and thereby secure, in the choice
delegates, a full and fair expression Of
the will of the people.
The committee cannot forbear to con-
gratulate all lovers of liberty and the T.
Mon upon the recent triumphs of the
good cause in New Hampshire and Con
necticut, and to express the hope, shared
by all loyal men, that they are only the
forerunners of more splendid victories
soon to be won in the cause alike by the
bullet and the ballot.

Committee.

issued from the Country press, as no pains or
expense will be spared to secure the ablest
writers on general Literature, Education,
Correspondence, and every other topic of the
day.
The want of a newspaper in Pike County,
giving TO the Government an unqualified sup
port in its efforts to suppress the rebellion
now threatening our National existence, has
long been felt by the friends of the Union.
In no other county in the Commonwealth
has the Peace movement, inaugurated by
Fernando Wood and his party, so many
friends and supporters. In no comfy is the
Government so openly assailed, its policy SO
misrepresented, and the laws so openly de-
fed
While there are some members of the
Democratic party in this locality, who have
openly and manfully stood up for, and aided
the Government, the great mass of that par
ty, and its Milford organ, have been open in
their denunciation of the war, and in dis
coura giDg our soldiers in the field
Under these circumstances, confidently
relying upon the support of loyal men, we
have determined to publish The Northern
Eagle, with view of correcting and en-
tightening the public mind as to the true is
sues involved in the war.
The Eagle will give the Government a
hearty and cheerful support in all its efforts
to save the country, and viii have no cor
nection with those who are directly or indi-
recty in sympathy with the traitors of the
South. Beyond this The Eagle will know
no party.

B@~ Should Europe be ehgulfed in war
before another twelvemonth, which is
more than possible, adding to the demand
already existing, the American farmer is
likely to be rewarded fer his industry as
never before. The support Of large ar
mics at home, the operating conscription
law upon the labor market, the troubles
which agitate the Old World, all go to
help the agricultural class In the United
States. Therefore plant every acre of
arabic land that is possible. Wheat and
corn are chiefly needed for export, but
all the small grains, such as are produced
plentifully in the Eastern and Middle
States, to say nothing Of potatoes and 9th
er vegetables, will find ready market.
