lie found invaluable, giving tone to the system.
and removing all the Frustrating effects incidental
to disease. The universal and popular knowledge
OF the virtues of True Calisaya Bark requires no

Science Has discovered many methods Of extracting
its virtues, and reducing, to small bulk, the
active principles of the Bark, viz, Quinine, Gin

CT On Saturday the European steam
ships took out 500, l59, mostly in silver,
and before they had all sailed the cable
brought the news that the Scotia was on
her way with 100000 in treasure from
London. The latter is the second recent
shipment of specie from Europe and the
movement is likely TO continue, as the
Europeans are sending over large orders
for our fvc-twcnties, and must send the
hard cash to pay for them. There is Il
great demand for them on the Paris
bourse, where, until lately, they have
been meanly excluded. This news, with

The Loyal Philadelphia Convention

|
A Convention is to meet af Philadcl-
phia Sept. 9th 10 consult on the condition
CT the country and the best methods Of
restoring harmony and union on the basis
of justice and loyalty. The desi IN of
this convention is for loyal men Of the
South. They meet for the purpose Of
strengthening and developing the loyal
been crushed and rendered powcrlcss by
the overbcaring assumption of the power
full di>loyaL element. This Convention
has some marked differences from the
late Philadelphia Convention which has
for some time been the chief theme of
newspaper comment. The latter was
composed of men from the South who
were active and earnest in their effort to
overthrow the government; who have not
repented of their past course, but still re-
greet its failure; and whose chief aim
seems to be to recover by political schem-
ing what they have lost by an appeal to
arms. The men from the North who
joined in this movement were those who
opposed the war and were ready at any
time to compromise with traitors by con.
ceding their demands. The Convention
was composed Of men North and South
who conspired against the national life,
and left no means untried to overthrow
the government. The record of the past is
sealed it cannot be changed.
The Loyal Convention will he composed
of men of the South who suffered odum
and Imprisonment, exile and violence, be
cause they would not forsake the flag of
their country. The men whose sym.
pathies are with them in the North are
those who stood firm in the hour of peril,
resolute to save their country at sacrifice
Of property and life.
There are also equal differences in the
object OF the two Conventions-not in the
dvo'red Objects but the real objects.
The real aim of the l4lh of August
Convention is the destruction of the Union
Party and the reinstatement of the rebels
in power for the Ultimate end of giving
Andrew johnson second term as presi
dent of the United States, AMI his sun
porters larger lease in the petty Offices
through the country.
The object Of the Convention to be
held September 9Th, is to present to the
country the views of Southern Loyalists
on the subjects Of restoration and recon-
struction in contradistinction to the views
OF the rebels AMI traitors. There can be
no room for doubt which of these opin.
ions are most entitled to consideration bv
loyal men in all sections of the country
True, it is possible that these men when
assembled, may be indiscreet in their
action, and still remembering the wrongs
to which they were compelled to submit
during the war, their language may be
somewhat embittered, but if underneath
we zee the stamp of loyalty and equal
justice. we must respect and honor it.
Blu. the supposition of bitterness is hard
ly possible. These men have already
patiently borne TOO much to he now

with joy the approach of the time for
