Thc TnIon NatIonnI ConrenfIon.

Efforts are being made to secure a
postponement of the National Union
Convention, which is called to meet at
Baltimore on the 9TH of June 10 nomi-
nate candidates for President and Vice
President We hope that this viii be
done. The attention of the country
should not be distracted from the great
and paramount issue-the suppression
of the rebellion. We believe that by
September next, the Confederacy will
be so far overthrow, that il viii not
materially interfere with the choosing
of President; or rather that the Pre-
sidential question viii not interfere ma
teriaily with the war
An early opening of the Presidential
campaign will materially distract the
attention of the country; therefore. as
1t Is unnecessary to have a long poli-
teal canvass, such thing should be
avoided
IL the rebels perceive that the lovaI
people of the country are determined
to devote their entire energies to the
war, they viii have little hope but If
there appears TO be distractions and di-
visions in the National councils, then
they viii hold out, in hope Of a copper
head triumph The Baltimore Conven-
ton should be postponed by all means.

There had, up to Saturday last, 2,l09
Tennesseans taken the amnesty oath,
al Shelbvyille. divided IS follow:
The can for the Militia.

It is now pretty generally believed
that thc militia Of the free States are
10 be called out for sixty days, TO gar
rison forts, &c, while our main armies
are concentrated in the great work Of
capturing the rebel capital We do not
know whether or not this Is true but
hope it IS The raw militia will be as
effective in guarding isolated points,
railroads &c, as old troops while the
latter may be so concentrated as to pre-
clude the possibility Of a failure in She
present attempt on Richmond
The country has now pretty generally
settled down upon the conviction that
the rebel capital is an important stra-
tegic point; indeed it is the only one
now left in the Confederacy; and the
rebels themselves admit that when il
falls, there is nothing to prevent a
movement into the center Of the cotton
States.
When Richmond is taken, garrisons
will be of no use in north and west
Virginia, and East Tennessee; and from
$1,000 to $4,000 old troops will thus be
relieved from duty Cavalry raids can
Be punished by cavalry forces; while they
cannot be prevented by infantry gar
risons
Strong infantry forces at different
points were never any terror to John
Morgan; he could readily avoid them
but cavalry brigade knocked him off
his pins with little ceremony. If our
lines were Strengthened, by an advance
in the East as great as that made in the
West, neither Tennessee, Kentucky,
nor Virginia would be in any danger
from raids
We have no reason to doubt but Gen
Grant has determined to put forth all
the powers Of the government in the
work Of reducing Richmond; we see
evidences Of this everywhere; and the
fears expressed by the rebel press are
ominous Of the result.
We hope the militia will be called
out and we look upon the brief term
sixty days-as an evidence that quick
work is to be made of the campaign.
