NORTH CAROLINA -General Palmer, who
recently commanded ii North Carolina, gives
the follow.ns .;c)unt OF the c,ll.tioa Of the
original an faithful Uaion men there:
LINN siiately after the collapse of the re-
bellion, men of all parties in the South sup
posed that the government of the United States
would give its confidence and extend the full
est protection TO the men who adhered to the
Union during the war. This expectation was
SO reasonable that the rebels could not objsc,
commenced the organization OF party 10 North
Carolina. Inc election OF the rebel candidate,
Governor Worth, over Governor Holden, and
his administration, supported, as It has been,
BY the Washington authorities, destroyed these
hopes and this party. The consequence is that
few Union men have consented to become
the tail Of the rebel kite, and have gone 10
Philadelphia TO witness the reconciliation Of
those VINO were never enemies. They, like
| Northern Union men who have gone to the
same place on the same errand, will be heard
of as Union men no more. Those who have
declined the alliance with rebels dishesrt-
ened, and have not the courage to adopt tn,
only courses which now open 10 them -

States, and the extension of the ballot TO all

The THIRD DIsrRICr.-The fight in the Third
District is getting very warm and bitter. The
opponents of Mr.. Baxter are holding meetings
at virious places in the District. Among the
anti-Baxter speakers, are Hon. Homer E..
Royce, ). s. Adams, Esq, Hon. Daniel Rob-
erts, Maj. Gen. Stannard, General Grout, Col.
Benton, and others. Charges of corruption
are being made against Mr.. Baxter, so speci-
fc in names and dates and vouchers, that it
seems impossible that they should not be true ;
and if they are true, Mr.. Baxter certainly
ought at once to withdraw from the canvass,
or, if be chooses not to withdraw, he ought to
be defeated. The people of Vermont should
rebuke political corruption without the least
hesitation, no matter who may be guilty of it.
Since the above was in type, we have seen
q circular, in which Mr.. Baxter makes a gene
raj denial of all charges of corruption. He
does not, however, explain the facts already
made public, and which seem TO fasten upon
him some of the charges of corruption.

GEN. GRANT AND THE PHILADELPHIA Con-
vENTIoN.-Gen Grants presence at the White
House when the Philadelphia Convention
waited upon the President, seems to have been
the result of a contemplate trick, and is thus
explained by Washington letter writer:
All General Grants friends were surprised
at his presence at the White House when the
committee from the Phila delphia convention
presented their proceedings to the President
as the act was totally at varence with his habi,
of strictly abstaining from even seeming in
reference with political affairs. 1t is now
known that General Grant was not present on
that occasion of his own accord, but through g
pre-arranged plan of Mr.. Johnson and the
managers. Just before the time appointed FOL
the interview the President sent for Genera
Grant, saying he desired to see him on bust
ness. When the General had fastened ovel
from his headquarters and had entered the
Presidents rom, the Philadelphia committe.
was announced and ushered in, and Genera
Grant found himself drawn in as a spectator
and apparent endorser of the affair." help
less victim of the same cunning which so ad
mirably controlled the great lock jaw conven
ton. General Grant has never de parted from
his habit of non-interference in the political is
sue between the President and Congress.

licans of Vermont, in the effort to secure such
reconstruction of the South as will not leav

Bread and Butter.

We last week alluded to the modest reQues,
Of the hungry delegates from New Hampshire
to Philadelp who after the adjournment of the
convention, went to Washington and made thei,
bows to President Johnson. This is the form
in which these good boys from New Hamp.
shire preferred their particular request for
bread and butter.
Resolred, BY the united delegation from the
State of New Hampshire to the National Union
Convention now 10 session in this city, that the
present crisis demands the arrest efforts oil
both the administration and the people, to res.
cue the country from the peIis now impending
over it.
Therefore, we frankly declare to the Pre.i-
dent of the United States that if the conserva-
tive party cannot be sustained by the whole
power and patronage of the administration, il
will be useless effort to attempt to sustain
its policy in the, coming contest with the real
enemies of the Union, and we feel con6den,
that with the earnest cooperation of the Ex-
ecutive Departments of the Government, We
can return three conservative members o.
Congress at the next election.
The President graciously and beniguantly
responded to these hungry e1pectants, that he
had " now policy and principles recognized
and laid down by the most intelligent, able and
patriotic body of men that has been convened
since the days Of the Declaration Of Independ
snce. A recognition Of this policy and prin
| ciples would be required of those who receiv,
Office and patronage from the Government.
was duty the administration owed itself, tina,
strength and power should be Riyen to thos.
who meet this week at Philadelphia"
What a spectacle The men who met .
Philadelphia were, in the Imagination Of Mr.
Doolittle, the heaviest in weight Of brain ans
| character who ever assembled on this continent

GENERAL STANNARD.-W learn that Gen.
Stannard has been asked to sign the call for
the johnson Soldiers Convention at Cleve-
land, and he has declined to do 50. General
Stannard has a glorious record as a soldier
without fear and without reproach, and we
are not surprised that he has no more fear Of
Andrew johnson, than he had of JEFF. Davis
His principles are not held at the bidding o
any man. The soldier who has SO often face
death in the terrible conflict of battle, is no
so cowardly now as to fear the batteries which
may be opened on him by the rebel sympa
thizers at Washington.

Mass CONFERENCE.-The Buriing ton Times
objects to Mass Conventions, and gives the
following among other reasons thinking them
not just the thing
We object to them; they ale too expensive.
Take the case of our townsman &. w. y. Pat
tee, a lifelong democrat, who was paid, las
he publicly prOclaims in the streets,) S23, 90
for going to Hydepark for Mr.. Baxter, got
his money, S23 90. AT this same rate for the
(say) 25UO men who appea red there for Mr.
Baxter, the cost would be $57 800 This is
too much, and then there is the chance of q
mistake in the Investment as IN tie case OF
MIR. Pattee; for his vote having been ohal.
enged, and having acknowledged himself q
Democrat pure and simple, our worthy chair
man tore up MIR. Pattee's ballot before bis
eyes and he passed on. Again We say, mass
meetings are too expensive, besides beng toe

ing upon them 10 arm and equip themselves
for the purpose of protecting and sustaining
the convention IN its illegal and unauthorized
proceedings, intended and calculated TO upturn
and supersede the existing Safe Government

the government of the United States. Fur

GENERAL GUSTAV, who has joined in the call
for the soldier johnson Convention at Cleve-

his testimony last spring before the recon-

IN the presence Of the military. 1t does not
appear what has changed his mind since then.

The National InisIligener, the organ of

could net DE hell IN Southern city. Yet
President Johnson says the rebellion is sup
pressed, and law and order prevail in every
that only one kind of speech-the kind agree
able to secsssionsts-is allowed in their south

idea of law and order the same that of his

Ths New York Wo'id, Cohnson's paper,) is
not content with calling such men as Hamilton
of Texas, Maynard of Tennessee, Bolts of
Virginia, and the other Southern Unionists who
are to meet in Philadelphia, the 30 of Sep
TENDER "mean whi,es,'' but calls them mean
whites and sneaks." OF course its reasons for
calling them y these opprobrious names is, that
they refused TO go with the rebels of those
States into war upon the government II
once counted Andrew Johnson in the same cat
egory, saving this Of him and President Lincoln
after their nomination at Baltimore
The only merit We can discover in this Bal
tinore ticket is the merit of consistency 1t il
all of piece; the Tail does not shame the heaC
nor the mead shame the tail. rali-sp lifting
butfooa and boorish tailor, both from the
backwoods, both growing up in uncouth igno-
rance, they would form grotesque subject for
a satiric poet, who might celebrate them in suct
stratus as Dean Swift bestowed on Winston anG
Ditton, or Aristophanes on that servile dema
gogue, Hyperbolus.
The " boorish tailor, having joined the arts
tocratc parry of feb.is and their sympathxers
has become patriot and gentleman in tn
estimation of the WOrM, while Hamilton. May
nard and Bolts are still mean whites an
sneaks." Such is Johnsonism.
