Remarks Of We,sdeH Phillips and
Gen. Butler.
BosFoN, Sept. 13.

- t BosFoN, Sent IS.
The Massachusetts, Republican State Con-
yention met in fremont Temple to-day. Gen.
Butler presided, and made a lengthy speech
Gov. Bullock and the whole State ticket was
renominated by acclamation. The Convention
then took q recess. The attendance is large
and harmonious. g5 etlesta,4
The Republican Convention at one o'clock
to-day adjourned to Faneuil Hall in body to
pay their respects to the Southern loyalists now
here. The jam was immense, probably 5000
persons We're inside the hall.
Gen. Butler called the assemblage to order.
He said the Republican State Convention had
come here to old Faneuil Hall from the Tre-
mont Temple, to receive their brothers from the
South. Twenty-eight gentlemen were here,
who had been faithful among the faithless, and
We welcomed them to Faneuil Hall in the name
of the State, whose Representatives we were,
honoring and loving them for their fealty and
loyalty in the past .Efg gslgg5sss
Eloquent responses were made by Gov Ham
ilton, of Texas, and Gov. Brownlow. Wendell
Phillips, who was among the audience was
loudly called for, who spoke as followu:
Eeilow-C Citizens:-I have no speech. You
VIII allow that my radicalism is not radicalled.
(Applauscl Tennessee and Virginia have
gone before me, and all Faneuil Hall has to say
is, amen and all hail. New England clasps
her right hand with Texas and the Gulf States
for impartial suffrage. Suffrage for every man
under the flag of the Union. The anvil and
the hammer are agreed Let the Middle States
take warning. Great applause)
Loud calls were then made for Gen Butler,
who excused himself from speaking any furth-
er than just to ask his hearers to imagine how
it would sound to hear of George Washington
making sucha circuit as johnson had made,
and on such an errand. Let them imagine that
scene at Cincinnati, and hear the crowd saying
don't get mad, George; keep your temper,
George. Think of it, and think to. what the
Presidential office is reduced by President
Johnson Laughter and applause). ~.

The yon,ea of she War.

Mr. Frank Moore, author of that successful
book, The Rebellion Record" and of a great
number OF historical sketches, is now engaged
upon new work which from its unique con-
ception and from its admirable execution bids
fair to surpass in popularity anything which
he has before written 1t is an attempt to gath
er up and presentin connected form authentic
narratives of the services of some of the heroic
and noble women who in the field, the camp
and the hospital shared with the Union soldiers
the e'labors and the perils Of the war. The vol
ume will embrace many accounts hitherto un-
published, illustrating the privations, the self
sacrlfices and the sufferings of loyal women
along the border and within the rebel lines;
showing the heroishl, the fortitude, and also
the thrilling adventures of those who went
with their husbands and sons to the camp. fol-
lowing the army in wearisome marches, sub
mlttlng to the horrors of rebel PRISONS and PEN
etratlng, calmly as veterans to the front of the
fight; and especially exhibiting the devotion
and Christian self-denial of those who left the
enjoyments and comforts of home to perform
the most laborious and servile duties for the
sick and wounded in hospitals. Here are sto-
ries OF courage as brilliant and daring as that
OF the Maid of Saragossa, of charity as sweet
and noble as that of Florence Nightingale, of a
devotion like that which inspired the early mar
tyrs. All these accounts are entirely authen-
tic. They are not the inventions of fancy, but
simple narratives Of fact, and the widest flights
OF romance could scarcely surpass them in viv-
idness Of interest ,a t .s...y}
The Illustrations of the work are beautiful
and appropriate, consisting of great number
OF finely engraved steel portraits of the hero
ines whose adventures the book sets forth
These portraits are executed in bank-note style,
and even apart from the interest of their sub
jects are many of them extremely beautiful
The work is to be issued in single handsome
volume appropriately bound, and will be ready
carly next month. 1t is published by S. s
Scranton and Co., Hartford, CT, and is sold
only by subscription. Mr.. G. A. Chaplin, whose
advertisement appears in another column, is
the agent for this city.

THE Coal TRADE. The PHILADELPHIA Led

THE Coal TRADE. The Philadelphia Ledg
or says the coal trade Stacked off little last
week, but the effort to secure an entire suspen-
sion of the trade has been far short of expecta-
tions Some few of the colleries stepped in
obedience to the suggestion that it should be
made general but as it was seen that some
kept ON work, those that had knocked off after
afew days resumed, and, as the tonnage of the
past week shows, the trade may be considered
pretty fully in operation again The price of
coal is nearly steady, and the average probably
covers the cost of putting it into the market--
While this is the case producers will not stop
and permit their mining force to scatter. The
Ledger remarks; -e.H...nI 10 si'9
We have some twelve or thirteen weeks yet
OF the coal season, which, at the average OF on
ly 259OOO tons per week, will add over three
millions of tons to the present production, and
give an aggregate anthracite Tonnage for 1866 OF
eleven aud o half to twelve millions Of tons.
1t has been estimated that the market would
take this year two and onex half millions tons
more than last year, and VIC ARE now nearly
three millions in excess -of 1866, with some
three millions of trade to the close of naxiga-
year 1t is certain that there has been some
mistake as to the capacityiof the market this
year, or else there is q large amount of coal
that has not gone into consumption. With
these facts in the hands of the trade the future
of the season is not very ffatteEing for produc-
ers and carriers, whateverit may prove to con-
sIlmers. II. ..sr .is-...,i.l ~ II III =.

'THzE PRESIDENTIAL TOUR.
Rennd2.kstOf President John
ANOTHER CIVIL WAR.

PrTTsBURG, Pa, Sept. 13.
The President and party arrived here this
evening" On the route several stoppages took
place. At New Market the crowd were de-
monstrative, and had placards with "New Or
leans" on them and Gen. Callum told them
the President would not address them At
Steubenville opposition demonstrations were
also made. On arriving at this city, the party
were escorted to the st. Charles Hotel, where
the President mounted a platform in front. He
was greeted with continuous hootings
hurrahs, misses and calls for General Grant
and admiral Farragut but Judge McCaulless
rendered welcome to the President in as
loud voice as possible. There was the utmost
conceivable confusion of hootings, believing
and noise during Caulless' speech. The Pres
dent responded, but was interrupted continual
" by cries OF My Policy, {" New Orieans,
JEFF Davis" "Grant," groans.. etc. After hav-
ing accomplished few sentences, the Presi-
dent beckoned to Gen. Grant to come forward,
when he did so, bowed q few moments and re-
tired. Screeches, whistles, hurrahs, groans,
and cries for Admiral Farragut followed. Ad-
mlral Farragut appeared and received the
cheers of the crowd. Finding it impossible to
be heard, the President retired. The crowd
continued to groan and shout for more than an
hour after, when Gen. Grant appeared and told
them they had better disperse; that they had
seen everything and should retire quietly He
endeavOred TO speak further, and waved his hat
in deprecating manner, but the noise was so
great that he was obliged to retire. The crowd,
with the exception of few small fights was
peaceably disposed and kept up its peculiar
noises, shouting, ETC., till a late hour in the
evening. f.f.,..s,. rfr......
In the course of his remarks at Newark,
Ohio, this morning, the President said the Con-
stitution had been encroached upon, and if the
invasion of the organic law was not arrested,
the day was not distant when when we would
have consolidated monarchial form of gov
ernment. The tendency now was to absorb all
the powers of the government in the Legisla-
tive branch. Unless the course of Congress is
arrested by your suffrage, we shall have anoth-
Ell civil war; 1t will not be between the North
and the South, but an intercine war.

A government officer, or one pretending to

little he had smelt like Andy's at the inaugu-
ration) to inquire of Portland, if L. d. NJ
Sweat of the First District was elected; saving
that he had up fifteen hundred dollars that he
(Sweat) would be- The operator soon
reported that he was defeated by thirty-five
hundred majority. The stranger soliloquizing,
says,-3Is it possible? Why, we turned them
all out in the First District p'
If Andy furnishes money to pay such wages,
all right; otherwise he'd better send agents
more familiar with the loyalty of the first
district. L. D. NJ S. has before been defeated
there; let him beware of the third time
hope the result Of the Maine election will not
check the pot house politician at Washington
from making sweeping ''kck," for the rea-
son that they can fight him better out of Of
nee than in. SUBSCRIBER.

A WESTERN HAMLIN.-Capt ID. Stewart,
who fought gallantly through the late war in
behalf of the Union, having returned to civil
life, is a clerk in a dry goods store at Flint,
Michigan, at $500 per annum. Col. McCreery
of that place, having gone over to johnson,
and been appointed Assessor of Internal Rev
enue for the district, procured, while in Wash
ington, the wholly unsolicited appointment of
Postmaster at Flint for Captain Stewart-the
salary $500 per annum. Col. McCreery
brought home the commission and handed it
to Captain Stewart, who instantly and indig-
nantly rejected it as an imputation on his per-
sonal integrity. Though no conditions were
attached to the place, he felt that he would, if
he accepted it, be at least under suspicion of
having @sold OUT" and he preferred $500 year
with his own and his neighbors respect to
$500 with a faint Of Johnsonism on his repu-
tation. Such is the spirit wherein the West

THE NEW JERSEY LEGIsLATURE.-The adop-

the New Jersey Legislature, and the probable
election Of q Union Senator in the place of Mr..
Stockton, make the democrats anxious to find
some way to defeat the action of the present
session. In casting about for this purpose they
have hit upon point SO small that a Tombs
lawyer scanning an Indictment might be
ashamed to make it. They find that the gov
ernors proclamation summoned the assembly

Hber, at three o'clock in the afternoon" with

democrats to invalidate the acts of the session.
