The | mon banners have been crowned with
victory at all the November elections. New
York and New Jersey, which were counted
on with great confidence to constitute the
northern wing Of the reunited Democracy
and thus to swing the country round TO its
old moorings, have led off the column of
Union victories. Maryland Massachusetts,
Wisconsin, Minnesota. Illinois and Kansas,
have marched right along under the same glo-
rious standard, and kept step to the music of
the Union most beautifully.
The fact that the hosts of the Union have
been victorious everywhere throughout the
country, aud that the North is now a unit in
favor of the Union Republican party and the
Administration and Congress which it has
placed in power, indicates the confidence Of
the people in the party under whose auspices
the rebellion has been crushed out. 1t mani
tests too, the desire of the people that the
party we favor, should have charge of the
work of reconstruction. The people are in
favor of thorough work, and they would not
only make treason odious, but they will insist
upon ample security against rebellion in the
future, by the eradication of its cause and the
establishment of universal liberty through
out the land under the sanction of~the Consti-
tuition, and the protection of the National
Government.
The result of these elections indicate that
the people have no more confidence in the
copperheads, now thatthey are so ''sweet'' on
JOHNSON on the soldiers, than they had when
these same copperheads were denouncing the
soldiers as. Lincoln hirelings, and organi-
zing "fre in the rear The copperhead
leaders have denied their record, repudiated
their principles, ignored and abandoned their
party name and party platform in vain. The
people remembered them and understood
them. and the soldiers have sworn that they
never will forget or forgive them. The Union
party is the party of patriotism, Of the Union
aud liberty, and it has commission from the
people to secure universal liberty and equal
rights to crush out rebellion and treason, and
to re-establish the Union in the interests and
under the control of loyal men.

The State Convention of colored men, ad-

instructing nature.

affecting the interests of colored Americans
Previous to final adjournment of the con-

mously adopted:
Resotred, hat this Convention is of the
opinion that there should be representation
Of colored men in the city of Washington
from different sections, to be there during the
session of Congress, supported by the people.
whose duty it should be to urge upon mem
bers of Congress the importance of having
status of colored Americans so fixed in laws
that his color shall not be bar to his oecu-
pying any position, or the enjoyments of all
rights that appertain TO citizenship,
Quite a number of counties were repre-
sented, the delegates of which returned to
their respective homes to-day.

THEGATE CITY.


The loyal people. from Maine to California,
are rejoicing over the glorious victory of the
Union men of New Jersey. 1t is grand
victory, and all the more so, that it was un-
expected to the country at large. Through
out the four weary years of war, that State
has stood ont firmly and held aloft the banner
of the State in bold defiance of the Govern
ment. 1t was the Copperhead Gibraltar of
the North that stood out alone after all the
strongholds of the party had yielded to the
spirit of Union and of patriotism And her
antecedents for near a generation past had
been SO thoroughly and uniformly democratic
and pro-slavery, that she has been regarded
as incorrigible and hopeless.
But there were patriots in New Jersey all
the time, and thousands of them in imitation
of their revolutionary forefathers, rallied to
the defence of the country in the present war.
But while they were fighting the battles Of
the country in the South, the copperheads at
home refused them the right of suffrage and
cast the vote of the State for Parker aud
Mcclellan, and elected Legislature as COM
pletely ue'oleu 10 the maintenance OF slavery
as any that has met in the South. The war
over, the Jersey Blues returned from the
South, and rallying under Ward and cheered
on by Fitzpatrick and Logan, they marched on
to the copperhead works and carried them by
storm, achieving great victory, only second
in import to that which they won on the battle
field of the South.
We propose that Jerseymen in Keokuk
now that they are no longer ashamed of their
nativity, have jollifcation over the grand
Union victory in New Jersey; and to this
end we invite them all to call into the Gate
City sanctum during the day and report them
selves, that arrangements suitable to the
occasion may be made.

Union Rally in Brooklyn last Tuesday eve
ming. Gen. -KILPATRIcK made powerful
speech. and in the course of it read the fol-
lowing letter. which he had received from
Gen. SHERMAN. The treading of it elected
tremendous applause
Gen. Judson Fitzpatrick:
DEAR SIR: / have observed, with interest,
your political conflict in New Jersey. 1t is
really provoking, hardly worthy of a serious
thought. but rather of satire and ridicule, the
souirming of the politicians called copper
heads, who opposed the war from every con-
ceiyable motive. Some from sheer coward
ice, others to oppose political party. Some
because they thought we could not whip. the
South, and now, that it is reduced to dem
onstration. have hard work to explain their
conduct, even to themselves. have no pa
tience with that class Of men, and believe the
people of the South have more respect for us
who belabored them soundly, than for the
copperheads, who, nominally their friends,
led them deeper and deeper into trouble.
". I. SHERMAN, Maj. Gen.
Gen. FITZPATRICK also read letter which
had recently been written by JOHN B. Has
KIN, Esq, to General SHERMAN, begging
from the latter good word for the Democrat
ic party. The statement that exact fac simi
les of the begging letter from HAsKIs had been
also received by Gems. FITZPATRICK and Lo-
GAN, elected roars of laughter.
AS the polls closed Tuesday the old hulk of
copperhead Democracy sunk beneath the
waves ofpolitical damnation, with Union guns
bearing upon her from New York, and Massa-
chusetts, and Minnesota, and Wisconsin, and
Illinois, and even New Jersey. SHERAAs's
