The Loyal Union Convention.

The meeting of the loyal men of the

One Among it's Causes.

There is no need of hunting up special
reasons to account for the defeat of the
party opposed to the great Union party
on Monday; and yet some may be named.
1t is true, no doubt, that the best informed
and most sensible of those belonging to
the late Democratic party became DISCUS
I'd with the President as he exhibited him
self in his stamping tour to Chicago. No
reasonable man, when sober, can read that
record of the President and retain any re-
spect for the man. 1t is so unlike Nlat
has ever taken place before i'll a Chief
Magistrate Of the nation, so much beneath
the true man or the philosophic statesman
that the men who though lately so much in
love with the veto messages, got lost i'll
aniazement, and they refused, after the
marriage ceremony was performed, TO so
on the honey -moon journey The Presi-
dent has dampened their arior. There
may be Damed another potent reason to
the observing: The Democratic party of
the State, casting in 1864. 10000 votes for
Mcclellan, went over TO the johnson par
ty less than two thousand strong, sinking
their time -houorcd name, and forgetting
past tradi -ions, reaching back for more
than half a century, aud with no hope for
future. What WAS there to cheer on the
rank and file Of that once proud party, or
10 inspire its leaders Every one knows
thar Andrew johnson Will be dead
duck before another Presidential election
and that no party viii want him for a can
.lilate. Then what was there to cheer on
to tue polls, If it was 10 end in defeat
who loses, If it was TO be victory
whose victory is it !, The Democrats did
not want to draw Andy johnson, because
rhey would not know what 10 do with him.

THE ELECTION.

The election passed off very quietly on
Monday in this town. The polls We're
opened at 10 o'clock \. NJ, and continued
open until half past five. The result we
give below. The Union vote is asnoble
one. and makes a glorious record for Els
worth. Mr.. Pixies vote fell short of the
Governor vote thirtv-six, but this was ae-
complished by much effort of Il few indi-
viduals. who were lahorng to earn place
i'll the Custom House here. We noticed
two of the candidates for the place of Dep
uty. thus working. There were some Tn
ion men. those who would resent it. if they
were not thus claSscd, who voted for eros
by for Repre- sentative 10 Congress, but it
would take considerable argument to make
common people believe that such persons
are reliable Union men. or that they are
not more fully controlled by weak prciu-
diees than by patriotism. But these are
but the common occurrences of our poll
tics. and the common way-marks to tell
us that sound reason does not always sway
men and therefore belongs to the comm on
places that deserve not much attention.
We shall find in those towns where there
are national offices 10 be obtained and men
who are willing to "crook the pregnant
hinges of the knee, when thria may follow
+ fawning." that a desperate effort was made
] to reduce the vote OF the regular nominees
! for members Of Congress. This will hold
good in every district in the State, and was
to be expected. because President johnson
has made war ON Congress, and my pol
icy. calls for large effort To show that Con.
Grcss i. not sustained by the people. To
vote for a Johnson member of Congress is
equivalent to supportin" my policy

Marriage Extraordinary.

Married at Philadelphia, August lith,
1866, at about O'Clock p. III. the johnson.
Dolttlc party just three months of age, to
the Democratic Party aged 80 years. The
ceremonies were imposing and the compa-
ny select Rev Dir. Woods of Maine was
one of the officiating officers. A. II. Ste
phcus, late vice President of the Confeder-
acy, c. l.. Nallandingham of Ohio and Fer.
nando Wood of New York stood in the an
te. room. Tine President of the United
States, Andy johnson, was master of the
ceremonies. The ''happy pair" now made
one. with all the'pomp and circumstances
of a political marriage, started ON its wed
ding tour early in the first week of Sept.
cmbcr, visiting Vermont the fifth. The
greeting was SO far from cordial, in that
noble little state, that with disgust the we'd
ding party started for Maine arriving in
the Pine Tree State the 10th. Here, the
reception was what was to be expected
and the Royal Pair alarmed and chagrineJ,
put for Georgia. We will keep our read
