Progress.

On the 18th inst. an Unconditional
Union Convention met at Alexandria,
Virginia, and after electing its officers,
John NJ. Bolts being elected President
they deliberately proceeded to denounce
the present State Legislature of the
State of Virginia as being an illegal and
unconstitutional body. They named
their party the "Union Republican,
party. In their platform they approye
of the extension of the right Of suffrage
to the negroes, the exclusion of volun-
teer rebel soldiers and otfice-holders
from State and National offices, and the
establishment of free schools.
This is commencing reconstruction OF
. firm basis. The punishment OF trea
son, universal suffrage and free schools
are sufficient to guarantee peace ant
prosperity to any State. If we are no
in too much ola hurry to hand the loya
people Of the South over to the injustic,
and cruelties Of treason, such evidences
OF safe and permanent reconstruction
will manifest themselves in all parts O
the South. ..@4Dg81fa1 '.' A"'5~s- =

Correction.

1t has been reported throughout The
State that Col. Ed Wright has been ap'
pointed Collector of this District, and
has accepted the appointment. This,
NC learn from Col. Wright himself, is
incorrect. Without his solicitation he
received the appointment, but the SEN
ate has not yet acted upon it, and he has
nothing as yet oaccept or reject. He is
q candidate Tor the Office Of Secretary of
State. Let those who, without author
ity, made haste to announce his accept
ance Of the Collectorship, do him the
justice to say that they were mistaken,
and that having allowed himself to be
announced as candidate for the Office
of Secretary Of State, he does not propose

Conversational Convention.

We publish this week the call for the
Congressional Convention. Politically
this Convention is no less important
than the State Convention. We are
called upon to say whether we are in
favor OF the rcbel-courting, rcbel-elevat-
ing policy of Andrew johnson, or
whether we sanction the efforts CT Con-
gress to maintain the ground that
traitors shall at least be subject to some
inconvenience, and that the rebel States
shalt only be considered States when
they repudiate the acts and the debt of
the rebellion, protect the rights of loyal
citizens and submit their Constitutions
to fair vote of the people.
On these points the position of Cedar
county is by no means doubtful. She
did her duty during the war, and viii
do 1t in time Of peace. She believes tina
treason is the blacklist of crimes. If sh'
were called upon to choose between tn
policy of the President and that of Con
gress, she would declare in favor of TIL
latter by Us large majority as she eve
cast for the Union ticket. She does nc

CLARENCE, May 9th,

i p = 4 q
Mr.. ADVERTISER II neglected to
write an article last week. Business
duties crowded upon me too heavy. I
suppose if 1 feel inclined to write upon
any subject, you will have no objection.
When l see so much quarreling and
contention among men, 1 often think
how much better it would be IL they
would be kind to each other, and re-
member the great principles taught by
our savior-Whatever you would that
others should do to you, do you even SO
unto them. We should guard against
selfishncss as much as possible, ever re-
membering that we belong to the great
family of man; We should remember
that we were all created by God, that
He is our father, and we as His children
should have sympathy for each other,
and not live entirely for ourselves, but
SO that the world will be bcttcred by our
having lived in It. Be kind; kindness
will go farther and bring us more happi-
ness in this world, than all the haughti-
ness and aspcrity we can possibly as
sumo. How much easier, too, is it to
act kindly and naturally to our fellow
men; and even to The domestic, useful
and faithful animals about us, than to
affect rude and boistcrous dcmeanor
which is sure Not only to make Others
despise us, but, on reflection, to cause us
to despise ourselves. 4 kind and SYM
pathizing word from the lips falls like
oil upon the rufflcd waters the human
breast, and this is the great secret in the
success Of business-why some are sue
cessful and others unfortunate. An in
deliblc motto should be impressed on
the mind of every sensible man who
would wish to pass through life success.

The Suit Aaginst Gov. Stone.


The copperhead papers throughout the
State have reprinted with Joy the tele-
graphic dispatches that Attorney Gene
raj Bissell has commenced suit against
Gov. Stone for the missing Swamp Land
Indemnity Funds. They commented
upon it with copperhead glee-which is
seven degrees bitterer than the famous
"fiendish glee'' SO often referred to-

Orwig may have placed in his hands as

supposed to be guilty, but because it was
his name that was forged-if forgery it

other words, he is merely nomina;iy d

sense, and the statement that "Gov.
