considered them as victims OF seditous leaders,
You can't try jeff Davis until a true bill is
found against him, That is for your security,
not his. These men should be tried according
to law.
Whenever you hear these blatant fellows going
around talking about punishlng Rebels Just ask
them how many Rebels hey have put in the way
OF being punished. 1t being q fundamental
principle OF the Constitution that no man should
be punished unless by due process OF law, that
no bill of attainder or eX post facto law shall be
passed, It became necessary for these men to go
round this or to dodge it, To the close OF this
amendment they have attached both q bill of
attainder and an eX post facto law.
There was another amendment after this, and
q most extraordinary one. II Is TO the effect
that the validity OF the national debt shall never
be questioned. Who ever thought of question
ing it but the persons who framed the amend.
ment? The national safety is wrapped upin the
validity OF the national debt.
1t is astonishing to me that the men who
fought upon a hundred battle-delds should be
Contented with the broken, sham Union which
we have now. Restore the Union, make 1t as it
was before, and the bonds of the country will be
worth TO the bondholder twenty per cent. more
than they are now.
When the Rebellion was put down to secure
obedience to the Constitution why should we
not be satisfied now that we have that obedience /?
The trouble is that the party in power feels that
il is in the minority, and 1t wants to secure help
before the power is taken from them. The radi-
cal programme is TO take the ten Southern States
and reconstruct them.
The meeting adjourned with cheers for Presi
dent Johnson Senator Cowan, Hester Clymer,
and the Union.
At the conclusion of the meeting the members
of the Keystone Club who were present during
a portion of the speech, proceeded IN body to
the Continental, and serenaded Senator Cowan.

MYSTERIOUS OoCURRENCE.-Abou two
O'clock yesterday morning, two men appeared
on one of the coal wharves in the extreme
southern part of the city, and after terrifying
the Waterman by a display of pistols, got into
one of the small boats fastened to the wharf,
and rowed off with it. When a short distance
from the shore, the watchman heard the cry of
murder, and soon alter one OF the men swan
back. He said that he had a fight with the
other man, and that both had fallen overheard
In support of his assertion about a hght, he
showed a severe cut in the back of the neck,
which had bed prolusely. The boat was after
wards found, with considerable blood In it, The
man who swan ashore was arrested yesterday,
and committed by Alderman Tttermary for a
further hearing. He gave the name of Robert
Lee, and says he belongs to Prince Edward
Island. The other man is missing. Whether he
was drowned, or swan to another wharf is not
known.

REPUBLICAN MEETING.-A large Republi-
can meeting was held last evening al Front and
Girard avenue. Colonel William b. Mann pre-
sided, assisted by the following Vice-Presl-
dents:-M. H. STaunton, C. S. Grove, j. IL.
Campbell, Lewis Auderried, NJ. H. Dickinson,
Isaac A. Sheppard NJ. Landenberger, William
Craig, Jacob Neade, Colonel j. NJ. DAVIS, A.
Warthman, and Captain J. Back.
Colonel Mann, on taking the chair, addresse
the meeting at some length upon the issues OF
the day, and urged that Congress was the only
power to deal with the question OF admitting the
Representatives from the Southern States.
The Hon. Mr.. Mcpherson, Ut Washington fol-
lowed, after which series of resolutions we're
offered among which were the following:-
ReSOl0ed, That the Union Republicans of the
Third Congressional District in mass conven-
ton assembled, express their warm approval OF
the patriotic record and distinguished ability OF
their well-tred Representative, Hon. Leonard
Myers, and their confident belief that grateful
constituency will re elect him to the seat in
Congress he now so wOrthiy holds. He has
faithfully guarded the business interests of the
J city and State; he has been the untlring advC-
cate OF protection for the rights OF labor; he has
4 given ceaseless attention to the wants of the
soldiers and sailors. Above all. he has been true
to the sacred cause of the Union, Tor the preser
vation of which they fought aud bled.
! ReSOtUed, That to Congress, and not to the
President, belongs the question of representa-
tion from the States lately in rebellion.
Speeches were then made by Hon Leonard
My ers, General Owen, and others.

ATHLETIC AND ATLANTIC BALL MATCH
No GAME PLAYED.-Tne proposed game be-
tween these two well-known rival clubs ended
IN disappointment yesterday. The assemblage
of spectators was so very great as to encroach
on the field, and Interfere with the players. An
attempt was made TO play one inning. The
Athletics went to the bat and made Il score OF
two The Atlantcs then took the bat, but the
crowd continuing to press upon the players
the umpire interiered, and several efforts were
made TO clear the field. 1t was Intellectual how
ever and so the Captains agreed TO ''call the
game" leaving 1t draw" When game
was "called" the Atiantics had two men on the
bases and one man out The concourse
OF spectators was lar greater than
on any similar occasion, careful
estimate, based upon an actual count Of one
not have been leSs than thirty thousand persons
present inside and outside of the enclosure
Columbia avenue was entirely blocked up with
vehicles OF all descriptions, and so were all the
surrounding streets and lanes. In e3tricating
them from the throng several were wrecked.
There was also considerable damage done 10
the fences. The stands were flied with ladies,
and their gay dresses, with the dense lines of
spectators and the ranks OF carriages, gave the
scene very much the appearance of Ascot or
EPSON on the great race days. We noticed
with regret, that spirit of gambling prevailed
TO a considerable extent among the visitors and
that large sums were staked on the result of the
game This should be discouraged, or baseball
grounds will soon fall into as much disrepute
as race-courses.
Last night, at a meeting of the Atlantic and
Athletic mines, 1T was decided not to play their
match in this city. II will accordingly be
PLAYED next Monday in Brooklyn. The return
match will then be at Suffolk Park. III
This afternoon the Atlantics will play the
Keystones. To accoflmodate the people who
desire to see the ereNt champion clubs playing,
the Keystones secuted the 0lympic's ground, at
Twenty .6fth and Jefferson. Ample police
Arrangements hay e been perfected. 100000
were staked in bets ulon the issue of the great
alch yesterday Its failure disappointed the
sporting gentry considerably.
