THE Tribune remarks that Southern papers
advocate the election Of men who have fought
for the South as delegates TO the Philadelphia
Convention. The Copperheads insist upon send
ing meu who opposed the war, the Conser-
yatives, men who affirm that Congress in
1866 is as reasonable as the South in 1861
And such body as this is to be called Un-
ion Conventionl We have yet to learn that Re-
bels, Copperheads and renegades can make a
loyal Union of any kind.

A wHTTR MANS GOVERNMENT.

The Copperheads pretend to be in favor Of
white mans government and are very loud
mouihed and blatant in the expression Of their
pretentions., Yet they are opposed 10 the only
measure wfieh looks directly To that and, that
Is the proposition to base representation on white
population only. The Kenton Republican speaks
ruthfully when itsays that .'they are clamorous
to have all the negroes IN the South send repre-.
sentatives TO Congress, and their leaders would
all be willing to go to Congress and sit down by
the side of Southern rebel whose only con-
stituents were negroes. -----
The vote of the Southern States in the House
of the representatives. based on white popula-
tion, would be forty-tw while the vote, based
I en- white and negro population, would be severn
ity.two-a differenesof thirty votes, all based on
negro population in rebel States. The vote of
Ohio and Indiana in the House is thirty. Here,
then, we have this white-man's government
( party urging The admission into Congress of
sufficient number of votes from the late rebel
States, all based or negro population TO equal
the entire vote of the two great States of Ohio
and Indiana, and yet claiming that they are the
exclusive champions of the white man 5 interest
in this government. Consistency is a Jewel,
bat Democracy don't wear it..

THE NEW NEUTRALITY BILL.
~'rhe billsreported by Mr. Banks from the
Committee on Foreign Relations on Wednes-
day. passed the House yesterday. 1t is in ef-
feet revision of the neutrality law of lsls
repeating the more onerous and Objectionable
sections of that act, and conforming in its pro-
Visions to the British foreign enlistment act.
Gen, Banks, in his speechadv locating the BILL
said there was butone provision in if not cons
tanned in the British act He further said that
it was sufficient to enable the government TO
preserve neutrality. 1t is acknowledged that
our neutrality laws have been more stringent
as the execution of them has been more faithful,
than.those of some other nations tis the ev-
ident purpose of the new bill, prompted by the
inj juries resolved from British subjects during
the rebellion, 10 secure TO our citizens all right
full advantages of trade, and while We are liza
ble to suffer again as we have already, to re-
lieveE the government from the obligation of
f"standings guard over the Interests Of foreign
nations"

honest Union man, had called together the Con-
stitutional Convention. A majority thereof be-
iug Union men, though of the moderate type

the Sheriff, Mayor, Police, and all the rebels in
the city as posse coinmita.uS. They killed sew
eral members Of tho Convention aud imprisoned
the rest; also Governor Welles. At last ac-
counts they seemed to have things all their own
way. The militia was called out by the Cover
nor, of course including only the fearless. Union
men, white and black, to defend the Convention.
Large numbers of these have been killed and
wounded, and ell the hospitals in the city are
said to be filed with the latter The Rebels
seem TO have been generally armed, while tbs
militia were not President johnson telegraph

protect the Convention; but for some reason not

PASSAGE OF THE BOUNTY BILL.

BY The untiring efforts of such Union Con-
gressmen as Senators Wilson and Wade and
Representatives Schenck, Buckland and Gar
field, the Soldiers Bounty Bill has finally been
passed by both Houses of Congress. 1t will
also doubtless be signed by the President, al
though his influence, working through Secreta-
ry MCCULLOUGH, has been steadily against the
Bill. .-,..-. a.- t.... --.4T
We have not the final vote; but that of last
Thursday showed that every Democrat and
johnson man in the Senate voted against equal
izing the Bounties. 1t passed the House both
times by an overwhelming majority.
Let soldiers remember that this act of justice
was consummated by the Congress which has
been so persistently and maliciously nisrepre-
sented and slandered by copperhoads aud trai.
tors from Texas TO Maine. We indgc that
the soldiers viii stand by those wbO stand by
them. And they know very well that Con-
grcss composed of Southern rebel uabobs and
their Northern sympathisers will never legis'
late for the benefit of Union soldiers.
