UNION STATE CONVENTION.

A State Convention will be held at Har-
risburg on THURSDAY, THE nth AUGUST,
1865, at II o clock NJ, for the purpose OF
putting in nomination State Ticket, to be
supported by the friends of the Union at
the coming October election.
The earnest and jealous labor of loyal
people secured the great victory in 1864, and
made the war, which our enemies denounced
as failure, glorious success in 1868.
Our flag has been maintained-Our enc
mics destroyed-our Government preserved,
and peace re-established. Let every friend,
who aided in this result, take measures to be
represented in that Convention. We must
see to it that the fruits of our success are
not lost to the Nation.
Business of vast importance will be pre-,
sented FOR its consideration, and every dis
trict in the State should be represented. BY
order OF the Union State Central Commit
tee, SIMON CAMERON, Chairman,

The Next Siy Months.

1t is asserted on good authority that the
maximum of liabilities for the next six
months is, say in round numbers, $685., 900,
600, of which considerable proportion will
be settled with interest bearing certificates,
and of which another considerable proper
ton can be put over till Congress adopts
further financial measures. The minimum
of actual resources is $42S, 600, 900, to which
must be added all the receipts from sales of
property by the War and Navy Departments,
and the power to loan at least 500, 600, 900
more through Certificates of Indebtedness.
''What is there for fear, or doubt, or dread.
All demands will be promptly met.

What Southern Leaders Saw.


The Augusta Chronicle of August 1st
notices the presence of Gen. Howell Cobb
in that city, and says:
''In a conversation with the General, he
expressed great desire to have all matters
now in agitation settled at once; and wish
ed most heartily to see Georgia once more
resuming her former position in the Union.
The issues which have lately convulsed this
country he considers forever disposed of.
Slavery, he says, can never be resuscitated
in any shape. He thinks it best that all
submit promptly and willing to the United
States authorities; that matters which have
passed should be numbered among the
things that were, and should not be dragged
into the present, thereby creating discord
and trammeling the movements Of those who
are doing all they can to settle affairs The
same paper speaks of the arrival in town of
Ex-Gov Brown, and says: ''Gov Brown
speaks hopefully of the future, and thinks
it would be well for the convention to de-
clare slavery at an end in Georgia. without
excitement or discussion He also says that
the people of Northern Georgia are anx-
ious for an opportunity to take the oath of
amnesty, and will return conservative men
to the convention. He regards the question
of secession as settled by the result of the
war, and that any further agitation on that
and kindred topics should be studiously a
yoided "

Speeulators Coming 10 Beprarv

Interested parties in Chicago and other
cities in the west, where large depots for
the storage Of grain are located, have been
engaged, for months past, in creating
panic on the failure of the gra crops
Previous to this effort, these parties had
purchased immense quantities OF grain, and
the purpose was, before the harvest Of the
crops in the ground, to create panic, and
when prices had reached an exorbitant fig
ure, put the grain in the depots in the mar
ket, and thus, at the expense of labor and
the poor man, realize immense fortunes.
But before their scheme could become sue
cessful, the harvests Of the grain growing
regions of the west unsettled the markets
of the whole country. The crops all over
the country were immense, so that instantly
the value of stocks of old grain deprecated
Then followed a panic such as has moi
taken place in the grain market of Chicago
for many years. Men who were possessOr.
Of princely fortunes the day before, sudden.
ly awoke In the morning to realize that they
were reduced to absolute beggary. Specu,
lators who had invested their all and exaust
ed their credit for grain, only sold theil
stock to establish the fact that they were
bankrupts. While we do not rejoice in the
misfortunes Of any man, says the Telegraph
and while we believe in the legitimate use!
Of money, to make money, We have NJ
sympathy for the miseries of any set of mel
who become bankrupt while speculating in
the necessaries of life.

The Issues of the Hour.

The following article from the Harrisburg
Telegraph of August 10th, in our opinion,
views the issues of the hour in their proper
light:
A Traitor in New York, one who has the
blood of loyal men on his hands, lately boast
ingly declared that the question of negro
suffrage ,oould diride the BtackRepubtcaas.
Traitors everywhere depend on this hope.
South, bases its hope of success on this di-
vision. Now as a cotemporary well asks, do
the friends of the Union mean to make good
the predictions of this Southern rebel =?
Slavery exists legally in certain portions OF
the Union, and it exists in fact in many por-
tions, where, by the language of the procla-
NATION, it is abolished. The ratification of
the amendment Of the Constitution abolish
ing slavery all over the Union has not been
secured We are just on the pivot point of
that great question. One or two States
from the slave States, or from the intensely
Democratic ones, must be secured before
that act of abolition Of slavery is constitu-
tionally complete.
More than that The Democrats are raj
lying in all the States, hoping to carry the
autumn elections, and the coming winter
repeal the acts of ratification passed in the
Free states. Leu DellOcTdcy succeed III
one or more of the States where the ratifca
ton resolution has been passed, and all thus
far done to secure the amendment to the
Constitution is undone.
Yet with all this before our eyes, we, the
Union men, are driving, with the beetle fur
nished by our implacable foe, the wedge
that shall split us asunder, and leave this
great question for future repeated mbats.
Let US be taught by our enemy, and, al
lowing the broadest latitude for individual
ser timent, let us discard all questions not
yet ripe for solution, and keep our eye
steadily on the one great question of a re-
stored Uuion, relaxing not our grasp upon
the throat of the lately armed traitors,
nor raising our foot from the neck of the
PROSTATE secesh Democracy, until freedom
shall be absolutely and irrepealably pro
claimed throughout the length and breadth
of the land When slavery shall have been
buried, then we can afford to divide, if
needs be, upon minor questions

General Cameron and jeff. Dsv,s

A very curious reminiscence of the ra,.J

JEFF DAVIS was threatening destruction -
the North as the result of sece ssion. he ons
day, In an animated conversation with Cen

the South secedes, such paralysis will fail
upon Northern enterprise, that the grass
will grow in the streets of your Northern
cities y The retort was instant the Cen
eral replied Mr.. DAVIS, if the Southern
States secede, utter ruin will fall on yonr
section. Your slaves will be liberated ana
will assist in your destruction The North
will not be ruined but, will, with nv 80, avn M
hands, plant corn in the streets of Charles.

The Result in Kentucky.

There has been good fight in Kentucky,
Notwithstanding a complete victory has not
been won To show what has been gained,
it must be remembered that Kentucky last
fall gave NJ Clellan sc, sos majority, while
the aggregate majority for the Conservative
candidates at the last election can amount to
but few thousands. The vote in few of
the Congressional districts tells the story.
In the Louisville District, Gen. Rousseau,
the Radical candidate, is elected by fifteen
hundred majority, while last fall the vote
stood, Lincoln, 4,20S, NJ Clelan, s, 100. In
the Covington District, Green Clay Smith,
Radical, is elected by 1000 majority. Last
