tingency, If the South refuse TO come when
these terms shall have been offered by
George B. McClellan? What then is his
language? Let him answer: s.1he Union
must be preserved at all hazards" '.T'he lceight

in armed rebellion" Would Gen. Mcclellan
then call for 100000 more men, and set that
newly-invented wheel to revolve and send
men into the field? No! but he would say
''follow me;" and you and /, no matter
whether over '45or under 90" with will

and make quiclMork with the rebellion.
We will hang the leaders, and pardon the
bad or exterminate the whole guilty race.
firmly believe that ii George B. Mcclellan
stood ready to offer, the great mass of the
South would gladly come back and the good
old days would return to us.
The coming two months are big with
events of tremendous importance. Let US
work with will that defIes defeat. Let us
make one grand effort, and do each one his
duty, and the Union, under the old Consti-

with resplendent glory; and peace shall be
restored to us, and happiness shall dwell

THE RESOLUTIONS

Resolred, That in the future, as in the past we
will adhere with answering fidelity TO the Union
under the Constitution as the only solid foundation
of our strength, security and happiness as people,
and as a framework Of government equally cOnduc-
i've the welfare and prosperity Of all tho States
both Northern and Southern.
ResoIUed That this Convention does explicitly de-
clare the of the American people, that after
four years of failure to restore the Mon by the ex
pertinent of war, during which, under the pretence
Of military necessity or war power higher than the
Constitution, the Constitution itself has been dsre
garded in every part and public liberty and private
right alike trOdden down and the material prosperity
of the country essentially impaired-ustice human
ity liberty, and the public welfare demand that i'm
mediate efforts be made for cessation of hostilitos
with view to an ultimate convention of the States
or other peaceabe MEANS to the end that at the
liest practicable moment peace may be restored on
the basis of the Federal Union Of the States. .
ReSOlUed, That the direct interference Of the mill
itary authorities Of the United States in tho recent
elections held in Kentucky, Maryland Missouri, and
Delaware, was shameful violation OF the Constitu-
ton; and repetition of sujh acts in the approach
ing election will be held revolutionary, and re-
sisted with all the means and power under our con-
Resolred That the aim and object Of the Demo-
cratic party is to preserve the Federal non and the
rights of the States unimpaired; and they hereby
declare that they consider that the administrative
usurpatiOn of extraordinary and dangerous powers
not granted by the Constitution; the subversion OF
tiOn; the arbitrary military arrest imprisonment,
trial and sentence of American citizens in States
where civil law exists in full force the suppression
of freedom Of speech and of the press the denial Of
the right of asylum the open and avowed disregard
of State rights; the employment Of unusual test
Oaths; and the interference with and denial OF the
right of the people to bear arms in their defense is
calculated TO prevent restoration Of the UDion and
the perpetual lUH Of soyernmont deriving its just
powers from the consent OF the governed.
ResoIrod, That the shameful disregard Of the Ad-
minisration to its duty in respect to our elow-cit
zens who now are, and long have been. prisoners OF
war in suffering condition, deserves the severest
rcprobation on the alike Of public policy and
common humanity.
ResoI1ed, That the sympathy Of the Democratic
party is heartily and earnestly extended to the SOL
diery of our army and sailors of our navy, who are
and have been, in the field and on the sea, under
the flag of their country and in the event of its at
tanning power they will receive all the care, protee-
ton and regard that the brave soldiers and sailors
of the Republic have so nObly earned,
