TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 10.

Some surprise is expressed in some papers,
mat the Southern States are not more urgent

proposed National Union Convention. The
friends Of restoration and of conservative
principles in the Northern and Western States
,lay rest assured, that the Southern States

aaC believe, Of the cause of future peace and
-.armony--eycry success. But, situated as they
are. thew feel o natural reluctance in ulbarking
r any political effort touching general and ma
;lona affairs, lest their connection with it,
may injurc instead of benefting the good
cause They are SO maligned and misrepre-
seated that, for the most part, they lear lest
their participation in The proceeding might be
used to the dctrment Of what they ardently de-
sire. They are not admitted to representation
in Congress. They 90 not know that their
votes at the next Presidential election would
even he counted, or regarded. Besides, under
re call for the Convention, they fear their best
men might bc excluded men n07C as much
pledged to future peace and Union, as if the
scar had never taken place, whatever their feel
ings and sympathes might have been whilst
;he late contest was waged. Let it be remem-
5cyed, too, that confidence is plant Of slow
