The proceedings Of the Union State Convention
which assembled at indianapolis on the 22d ult,
will be found in another column. The Journal Of
that city, from which we COPY the proceedings,
represents the meeting large and enthusiastic.
and although there were differences among the
delegates. these were fortunately reconciled by a
spirit Of concession and compromise which was
aroused on both sides By the necessity which e1is,
81 for union and harmony in our ranks. Had the
party split the most disas trous consequences would
have eHsued to the country, from the success of
ihe Coppsrhead PARTY, which would certainly have
been the result The danger of such calamity
doubtless had more influence than any other con-
sderation in causing the delegates to make muiu-
al concessions for the good Of the nation; and
it is to be hoped that similar spirit will prevail
among the masses OF the Union party While we
do not approve entirely of the Presidents course
in regard 20 his veto Of the Frsedman's Bureau
bill, and especially not in regard to some Of tho
sentiments he uttered in the speech he made to
the Copperhead mob on the night of the 18th, we
would yet counsel moderation and forbesrance on
the part OF all Union men toward the President.
The points of difference between him and Con-
gress not sufficient to justify us in driving him
out Of our ranks into those Of the Copperheads
Let US rather adopt the wise and sagaeious advice
Of Gov. Baker, TO seek not the points Of difference
and divergence, but ther the things wherein we
are agreed, and tina, make for peace. This is the
great duty of the hour.

The Veto Message.

Our readers have read and reflected upon the
vete message Ii is well that reason, not passion.
should have full sway just now. The present con.

'ory necessarily gives rise to new questions upon
which the men who have stood by the flag in its rs
cent peril, even with their lives, NAV iiFer tho.

fruits oil the nations triumph over the rebellion,
ana 10 found, upon secure basis, the future do
nestle peace Of the Republic. Though they may
differ It can only be as to measures and moi as TO
the objects to be accomplished. Blu. an impas.aole
gulf lies between all Union men of whatever shade
81 opinion, and that political organization which
during the rebellion, has constantly stood in bitter
enmity 10 the Government, and in constant oppo-
sition to al. efforts made for its preservation No
patriotic man can trust that organic ,tion or the
men WHO control it. They plume themselve, now
upon the hope Of our dissenions and trust to our
divisions for the means of obtaining that control
OF affairs which will enable them to blast all the
results which the triumph of arms hav. obtained
They long TO enssye the negro, and TO hear again

We have examined the message carefully, and
while VIC much regret that there is not a better
agreement between Congress and the President VIC

from fault, and the President has said nothing in
