We complete in this issue the pro-
seedlings of the County Convention OF tbs
Republican Union Party held on Satur
day. 1t is not the official account. bat Wa
reported by us in order to have the copy
earlier than we could expect the Secretary
10 furnish it, it being onr intention To pub
lish the whole on Saturday evening, AS We
should have dons. but for tho reason sta
ted in our last issue. 1t is believed how
over. that this report will be found sub.
stanially correct. We also place the tick
ct at the head of our columns.
The Convention was IN ,re numerousiv
attended than any within our recollection
From every Township there was - full
delegation. and the number Of spectator.
was considerable. in fact the court room
was pretty well filed. There was fair
proportion OF Soldiers among the Dele
gates. .. -.
And not only wa, the convention nu-
merouslv attended, but it was in most
marked and perhaps unusual degree har-
monious. Candidates werenumerous, bu'
not seemingly importunate in urging
their claims; in fact in several instances
they gracefully gave way for reasons sta
ted. :a ..... u...s.. ~.
The candidates presented arc to-
we'll known to the voters Of tho whole
county to require an introduction from us.
TIL Y are all men Of intellis ence ard tri ID
lovattv, who will discharge the trusts repo~.
ed in them, If elected, with strict fidelity
Most of them have been placed by the PEG
pie in positions of responsibility before
and soma OF thaas,-i.a
awe been made up comprising more abil
ity, personal worth or Official experience.
We should be glad to find on the tickle,
larger number 0. those men who hsv,
sealed their devotion TO principle and their
country, in their blood in the battles TO,
National existence, had the convention
in their supeior wisdom, deemed it best tc
place them there butas it is we doubt not
that soldiers who have so signally in q
more dangerous service manifested viii
lingness to serve in the ranks whom duty
seemsd to require it, will rally to the IA
miliarstandard Of the Union, and help elect
aticket composed ofmen who, though they
have not all been to the war, have been
the true friends ofthe soldiers, and will pro-
m te the interest ofths soldiers in the fl,
ture as in the past. ... ..t
lis highly important not only that this
ticket be elected, but that good rousing
majority be given for it, from Governor
down. 1tssucccss overshadows every { ner
consideration. Tho salvation of the coun-
try depends upon the success of the Union
Organization. Let us then, recognizing
under the banner which has lei us
through this struggle so far, and coatin-
uing to keep step TO the music of the Un-
lon, lay our private griefs and personal
interests and feelings, if we have any, upon
the altar Of patriotism. Men are insignif-
cant, principles eternal. .... .-..

3 s TUE IRISH QUARTER. Z ".
Contrary TO prevalent opinion, Wells
street does not contain all the wretched-
ness, poverty and vice of Chicago. Its
crowded tenements and SETTLING alleys of
prostitution and crime are directly under
the eye of the police, who never relax their
relentless vigilance. There are other sour
ces whence comes frequent complaints to
annoy and puzzle the officers. These are
the patches where the sons of the Emu
erald Isle have ..squatted,' their severity
nine shanties, reartd their offspring and
bred their extensive droves of geese, hens,
cows, dogs and cats. The progress of CIV
ilization, the rapid growth of the city, and
the consequent increase In the value OF
property, do not seem to exert much in
| tiuenceyupon these people.-Wherever n
block of land. or perchance a dreary sand
hill along the lake shore, is in litigation.1or
of doubtful title, they find it out as if by
instinct; up goes the shanty, which has
perhaps been removed from some other!lo-
cality upon the backs Of the joint proprie-
tors Paddy Biddy. ''.'. -....

THE SUFFRAGE QURsTIoN.-We are not
fully prepared, says the Wilmington tDel-
aware) Republican, to say that the right of
suffrage should be extended to the colored
race. but we are fully convinced that it
should be denied to traitors and the aiders
and abettors of treason. A man who has
voluntarily borne arms against the Govern
'ment, or willfully and perversely contrib
uted to aid those who We're banded togeth-
or to overthrow it, should never be allowed
to vote. We should sooner trust the psr-
petuity OF our Institutions in the hands of a
loyal black man than in those of such char
acters. There is more virtue in good in
tentions than in color, and in times of dam
ger more dependence is to be placed on the
former than on the latter. We have no
faith in men who instigatsd rebellion, and
would not trust them until they have
shown as'thorougb repentance. Few of
them have done this. After taking the
oath Of allegiance and protesting loyalty,
they have evinced a bad spirit, denounced
the Government and its supporters, and
sought to stir up dissension among the
people. They are unfit to be voters, much
less Governors, congressman, Legislators,
magistrates, &c. The Union men should
have the legislation Of the country i'm their
hands, while traitors do works meet for
repentance. az .".tya" .t0a a""1.1"

Late on the second day the same vessel
in which her husband was saved, having

L rom the Slate Register.
To THE PUBLIC.-We have noticed. in
your paper of yesterday Sunday that we
wore appointed by so-called Soldiers
Convention, delegates to tho State Con-
vention to be held at Des Moines on the
I'D inst The use Of our names was unau-
thoriSed by us, and we desire publicly to
repudiate the action Of the Convention APP
pointing us, and TO express our disap-
probation Of the proposed State Conven-
ton. We do not propose here to discuss
the question ofnegro suffrage, nor to ex-
press our individual opinions upon it
Whether in favor or opposed to it, we are
alike willing to trust the people with the
question, when it shall be legitimately and
directly submitted to them. But we can
see no possible good to arise from the pro-
posed Convention Of the Esd inst. 1t is true
that every man who synpathised with the
Rebellion and kept upthe fire in the rear
upon as when we were fighting the battles
for the Union, is deeply interested in, and
anxious for the meeting ofthe Conventions;
and they have called il, or secured its call,
and are guiding, and will guide and con-

act i'll concert with such men, or in aid OF
their purpose. We do not believe they arc
the persons to either save the country now
or TO direct it's political course They have
been curse alike to us and the country
during the past four years, and it would bs
strange indeed if a blessing for either, now
could only be obtained by acting in concert
with the. Ifthem country is to be saved
from pending political evil, it can only
be done through the aid of, and in concrt
with the loyal men and Union party of the
country. If we have any reform to effect
uate, we regard the probability Of success
as much greater in the Union Republican
party than by opposition TO it. We there
fore withdraw our names from the list OF
delegates and recommend to our Brother
Soldier a cordial cooperation with, and,
80 far as practicable, the guiding of the
Union party, and prompt and utter repu-
distion OF Copperhead sympathy, or con-
cert of action with them upon any pretense
whatever.
