FRIDAY, MAY 8, 1854,

fHE STATE CoNvENrIoN.-Someo OF ouI
State papers in speaking of the conven
ton to be held at Burlington on the 18th
inst, say that it is called to nominate
State Ticket, Delegates at large to the
National Convention at Baltimore, and
two Electors of President and Vice-Presi-
dent of the United States. We do not
understand the call to include the nomi-
nation of Presidential Electors. 1t does
not expressly do So at least Whether
this was omitted by the Committee be-
cause they thought such nomination
could not be so properly made prior to
the Baltimore Convention, or for some
other reason, we are not aware but it
has not been the custom, if we remember
rightly, to nominate electors, in this
State, until after the nomination of Presi-
dental candidates. Such was the case,
at least, four years ago The State con-
vention for the election of delegates to
the National convention was held April
3rd; the National convention commenc-
ed its session May 10th, and the Presi-
Dental electors at large for this State
were nominated in State convention
June 9th. IL may be said that as the
State Ticket is to be nominated now, as
well as delegates to the Baltimore Con-
vention, If electors can also with equal
propriety be so early put in nomination,
the necessity of holding another State
convention this year will be dispensed
with. This may be true, yet the people
may desire to hold convention to give
united expression in ratification and APP
proval of the Presidential ticket, which
may be put in nomination at Baltimore,
and if so, it will be an appropriate time
to select the electors. tsE
We speak of this in no spirit of oppo-
.sition whatever to the selection of cleo
tors at the convention now called. We
raise the question merely because it
seems best that the matter be understood
and settled beforehand, one way or the
other.
As to the Importance of full attend
ance at the convention on the part of the
people, and some other matters in con-
nection herewith, we shall take occa-
sion, probably, to say something here
after.

rHE POTOMAC ARMY READY TO MOVE.

TIE POTOMAC ARMY READY TO MOVE.
Gen. Meade has issued the following
address to the Army
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,
I Wednesday, May A, 1864.
SoLDIRRs-Again you are called upon
to advance on the enemies of your coun-
try. The time and occasion are deemed
opportune by your Commanding General
to address you few words Of confidence
and caution. You have been reorganized
strengthened and fully equipped in every
respect. You form part of the several
armies of your country-the whole I'M
der the direction of an able and disting-
uished General, who enjoys the conf
dence of the Government, the people and
the army. Your movement being in CO.
operation with others, it is of the utmost
Importance that no effort should be left
unspared to make it successful.
Soldiers, the eyes of the whole coun-
try are looking with anxious hope to
the blow you are about to strike in the
most sacred cause that ever called men
to arms. Remember your homes your
wives and children, and bear in mind
that the sooner your enemies are over
come the sooner you will be returned to
enjoy the benefits and blessings of peace.
Bear with patience the hardships and
sacrifices you will be called upon to en-
dure. Have confidence in your officers
and in each other Keep your ranks on
the march and on the battle field, and
let each man earnestly implore Gods
blessing, and endeavor by his thoughts
and actions to render himself worthy OF
the favor he seeks.
With clear consciences and strong
arms, actuated by high sense of duty
fighting to preserve the government and
the institutions handed down to us by
our forefathers, if true to ourselves, vic
tory, under Gods blessing, must and
will attend our efforts.

The SOLDIERS VoTINa ACT. We publish
this morning the communication from
Gen. Phelps referred to a day or two
since. The argument of this communi-
cation seems to us founded upon the as
sumption that the act of our last Legis-
lature, comforting the elective franchise
upon the volunteers from this State, is
unconstitutional If it is so,--ifits exc
cution would be in any degree -subver-
sive Of the constitution, or infringe a
hair upon it, then there will beno disa-
greement with our correspondent as to
the conclusions he bases upon this as
sumption. II, on the contrary, the act
violates no provision of the constitution,
is not subversive of it in any degree or
particular, then majority of the people
of the State, we think, are in favor of it,
certainly majority of the last Legis-
lature was And the same may be said
as to any part Of the act, decided consti-
tutional or otherwise. The submission
of this question of the constitutionality
of the act to the Supreme Court, 'evinces
in our judgment no revolutionary spirit
but on the contrary, laudable anxiety
to keep strictly within constitutional
limits. q
Since writing the above, we see it
stated that the Supreme Court have made
their decision and reported it to the Gov
ernor. 1t is said to be concurred in by
all the Judges, and is to the effect that
so much Of the act in question as would
confer upon our volunteers in the field
the power to vote In the Presidential and
Congressional elections, is constitution
al; while that portion of it permitting
them toivote for State officers is uncon-
stitutional and void. This settles the
question In relation to their voting for
State officers, definitely and finally; while
our brave volunteers will be permitted
to cast their votes for President and
congressman. If this statement of the
decision is correct, our distinguished
correspondent can hardly claim further,
that this portion of the act, declared
constitutional by the Supreme Court, is
subversive of the fundamental law of
the State.

The DEMOCRATS AND THE TAX Bill
The majority of the Democratic mem.
bers of the House of Representatives
profess to repudiate the peace doctrines
OF Long and Harris, and to be in favor
OF the prosecution of the war. And vet
they give precious little support to all
measures essential to such prosecution.
Thus, of the fifty-two members who yo.
ted for Cox as Speaker, ostensibIy war
men, but seven voted for the tax bill,
VIZ; Baldwin, of Michigan, Cravens,
English, OF Connecticut. Holman, Robin
son, Steele, of New Jersey, and winfield
and of the twelve who voted for Daw-
son, only two, Bailey and Miller. OF
the entire sixty-fo who oppose the
Administration, and yet profess to be
for the war, only nine, all told, sustained
the measure, without which an effective
continuance Of the war is impossible.

Editor Rutland Herald II often read in
your valuable paper letters from Yer
mont regiments in the field. But | sell
dom see communication from the Tenth
regiment, and thinking that perhaps a
letter from the Tenth would not be un-
acceptable to you, 1 write. The health
Of the regiment is excellent, but few sick
in the hospital, and no deaths for con-
siderable time The men are in good
spirits, and are anxiously awaiting the
time when they may again strike a blow
for Freedom and the Union. 4 When the
time for action comes they will prove
themselves to be true sons of old Yer

n We have lately met with, 1 might al
most say, an irreparable loss in the res
ignation Of that true soldier, Col. Albert
B. Jewett who resigned on account of
continued i'll health, and has returned to
his home in Vermont. Lieut.. Col. Hen
ry is now in command of the regiment.
Heis brave and worthy officer,
Drill and target practice are the order
of the day now. o The recruits that came
to us last winter are fast learning all
that pertains to soldiers life.
We expect forward movement soon,
and with Gems. Grant and Meade to lead
us, confidently expect victory to attend
our arms, but, il instead, disaster should
occur, we will rally again for the old
Flag and Freedom.
Resolved, That peace shall visit this
beautiful land no more until traitors have
been exterminated or cowed into sub
mission. Then will the freemen of the
North return to their homes with the
proud consciousness of having preserved
intact, their own liberties, and rescued
a race from bondage. 81 se5gsv8
The soldiers are all anxious to know
if they will be allowed to vote for presi-
ident this Fall. They say they have but
one choice, and that is father Abraham. /
sincerely believe that nine-tenths of the
soldiers in this army will vote for Lin
coin ii he receives the nomination With
Lincoln in the White House and Grant
in the field, we are sure to win. N
