Cabinet

The resignation of Post Master General
Dennison, and Attorney General Speed, of
their places in Johnson's Cabinet, is not a
matter of surprise. When it came to the
point that they must either endorse the call
for the Philadelphia Convention or separate
from the President, they wisely chose the
latter course, as the more consistent and hon.
orable. They believe the Union party,
which had been the defence and support of
the Nation during the war, is yet able and
willing to maintain the integrity of the Re-
public, and that it would be wrong to desert
the party of Abraham Lincoln for that CT Val-
la~ndigham and Davis. Messrs. Seward and
Wells may go into the rebel camp with
John son, and the country will still survive.

The Philadelphia Convention.

This proposed gathering of political rep
rebates gives encouraging promise of being
committed 10 the exclusive nursing of the
copperheads. But for their aid and comfort
the project would have died in its inception.
As it is the more reckless cops. will be the
chief cooks and bottle holders, without suf-
icient sympathy among sterling and tried
Union men TO give the movement the bare
appearance of responsibility. This was ex-
emplifed at Cleveland q few days since,
where a meeting was held to appoint del
egates to represent the 18th Congressional
District in the Philadelphia Bread and But
ter convention. The Union men of the 18th
District kept manfully aloof from the affair,
and as a result it was a poor, miserable
gathering, at which Messrs. Ranney, Back
ers & Payne appointed themselves delegates
to 60 to Philadelphia. Thus it is all over
the North. But few Union men lave any
part in the movement. Even the more con-
sis 'enI Democrats repudiate it. 1t is doubt
fuI if Andy JohnsOn's party will amount to
any appreciable number on the Reserve
His adherents can be counted on the fingers
