We are but The more conflrmed IL the
opinisn, which We have already indicated,
that the South will do best in co.operAticn
and support, rather than in participation
and identification with the Convention

sonable and conservative men every where,
and With the men who stand ON the plat
form OF the Philadelphia call in particular
but il seems 10 be sort Of necessity Of

which We cannot subscribe.
Richmond Examiner, July 9.
Ifmcn Of this class, possessing the con.
6dsnce and respect Of the South, men Of
sosial standing, political influence and pub.
lie integrity, can be selected in any conven<
lent manner, We can see no good reason
Why they should not be deputed to Ph,la-
dslphia. They may do good in giving .
National character and imparting nation
d tone TO this body. They can do no harm.

We repeat that this Convention will bs
the most important event Of our times, and |
will lock more like union than any thing |
that has happened since the war. The in> |
iluencc upon the spirit Of the nation il too |
plain not to..arousc among the Radicals the |
most painful anxiety as to its proceedings. |
From these, all true patriots must hope |
the most beneficial results. The C0nven- |
ton must meet the general approval Of the |
nation, and We have not doubt that its |
proceedings will be worthy Of it. To doubt |
il would be to doubt that general Law OF hu. |
nAnity, which makes all true and loyal
men wise with that emergency and scau,t
themeelve with devotion and honor.
