~ We attempted, last week, to
show that upon the success to power
Of the Democratic party of the North,
allied as they are in the effort with
the rebels OF the South. there would
be no guarantee, to our brave SOL
diers, their widows and orphans, for
the continuance Of bounty or pen
sions, and that their only hope for
the continuance of these just and
righteous legacies of the Govern
ment depended alone upon the sue
cess Of the Union party. AS evil
dence Of the correctness of our as
sumption we ask attention to the fol-
lowing extract from the Richmond
Examiner of Aug. l8, wit:
That the Northern people should
think it right to tax US for the sup
port of the widows and orphans OF
those who fought against us and des-
olated our land, is not singular, for
they come Of a selfish breed, and
think little Of the feelings of others.
This exaction, we suppose, we must
stand; but it is not right to call upon
US to dishonor our gallant dead, and
TO trample on the feelings Of the
widows and orphans OF the South, by
recognizing the services of the Fed
eral soldiers and sailors in the late
contest.

gin July. 1866, Preside

EF In July. 1865, President
johnson wrote to Provisional Gov
ernor Marvin, OF Florida, saying:
@The Government OF this State
shall be provisional only until q
State government is reorgsnized, and
the basis OF that reorganization will
be subject to the decision of Con-
gress-'
Then the President not only re-
cognized Congress as legitimate
body. but acknowledged its suthori-
ty as paramount in the reorganization
OF State government. How does
this compare with his present senti-
ments? Now, because Congress ex-
ercises what he then considered its
legitimate authority, he speaks of it
as "a body called or assuming to be
Congress"-its acts as usurpation.
and tending to result in "Gespotism
an monarchy" But why multiply
words upon the subject. Every in
telligent reader knows that Congress
stands where it and the President
stood together little more than q
year ago, and that the change is with
the President-he has chosen to de-
sert to the cnemy-there let him re-
main.

S The Southern papers are not
altogether pleased with the work OF
the Philadelphia Convention, not
withs:anding it was inaugursted for
their special benefit. Here Is what
the Richmond Times says it:
The resolutions eulogistic of the
Federal soldiery, were not, we imag.
inc, hailed with any special enthusi-
asm by the Southern delegates
whose houses had been burned, and
lands laid waste by those Immaculate
patriots. Nor can We be expected
to feel keenly Interested in the
widows and orphans Of those FEEDER
al soldier who were slain by our
armies, while every act OF private
charity to the widows and orphans
of our own chiyalrous dead is de-
neunced as an exhibition of treason.
The congratulations and rejoicings
Of the Convention over the triumph
of the Federal armies must have gra-
ted somewhat harshly upon the ears
Of Gen. Dick Taylor and the other
ex Confederate Generals then and
there present.
There is, we believe, much indig-
nation felt that the Southern dele
gates should have quietly submitted
to the obnoxious resolutions to
which we have referred. Many
think that they should have left the
Convention rather than sanction
their adoption by their presence.

ments which ever aspersed the
North, or hated the flag, or aided in
the war upon, it, were msnifestly
present, and yet all agreed that for
the sake of obtaining power, they
would cover up all that could oper-
ate against their securing it. The
motto of the convention should read;
"All Who are in favor of the propo-
sition. will say aye" Except SO far
as that constitutes a convention, none
has been held. Men from the States
have come here and seated them
selves like so many parrots before
the managers of = political club
from Washington, to hear 4 set of
pspers read, prepared beforehand,
to say aye when allowed to open
their lips at sll, to be peremptorily
refused to speak, and to go home
again as soon as the Presidents
trainers got through with them
There has been no debate upon any
of the issues of the day, and all that
the body has to show, by way OF re-
cords, are the congratulstory re-
marks of Dix and Doolittle upon ia
king the char. a dispatch from Mr..
johnson, q letter from Vsllandig-
ham, the resolutions, the address,
and three remarkable prayers which
were offered.

~ Vallandighsm was driven ont
of the Philadelphia Convention, on
account of his Infamous conduct du-
ring the war. Rebels, however,
whose hands are yet red with the
blood of Union men, were, allowed
to come in and take their seats with
out a word OF remonstrance. This
is complimentary to the Ohio De
mocracy who voted for Yallandig-
ham for Governor! The Philadel-
phia Convention thrusts him aside
and admits leading rebels who had
borne, arms against the Union all
through the war, thus declaring VAL
landigham, and the Ohio Democracy
who voted for him, as unfit to sit in
convention even With rebels. Ohio
Democracy snubbed by even rebels
how low it has fallen.

Gold closed in New York, on
Monday, at l4S4
In the general market there in not
much animation. The prevalence oil
the cholera in the cities and on the
river has q tendency TO retard trade
and make it dull. The -four and
wheat markets maintain pretty firm
stand, and prices for the best grades
OF both wheat aud dour have advanc-
ed during the week. In Cincinnati
the advance on the best qualities of
flour has been from - to 80 cts per
barrel. In the East the advance has
been somewhat greater. In Cincin-
natl old wheat has entirely dissp-
peard from the market. Good new
red is quoted st from 2,25 to 2,4O.
In our city -four commands from
% to s13.75, according to the grade.
New red wheat of prime quality,
brings $3.50. Oats are ready sale
at 25c. Corn no sale. Clear bacon
sides sell readily on arrival at 2lc.
Our dealers, both Wholesale and
retail, are well supplied with goods,
and purchasers will find, on exami
nstiss, that they can be as fully and
as cheaply accommodated here as at
any point.

lsndlghsm in his Kentucky speech
Yallandigham is about right. What
followed must have hei ghtened the
effect of his exultation. ''Give it to
him." meaning Lincoln shouted
one of the rebel crowd. We have
an idea that they and Vsllandigham
did "give it to him." and that he
died of it. That is why Abraham
Lincoln is not President and Aady

A WORD TO MAxMILIAN--Maxmil-
ian having declared q paper block
sde of Matamoras and some other
>Norts in possession of the Republi-
-cAhs. President johnson has issued
proclamation giving notice that the
blockade being unsupported by ad-
>equate force, and not being binding
under the treaty of the United
States and the laws of nations, it will
be treated as null and void, and
citizens of the United States who
may be molested, in case of the vio-
lation OF such blockade, will be pro-
tected. Maxmilisn will not find it
difficult to understand the meaning
of this proclamation, and we have no
doubt he will respect it.-CiH. GdE.
1t is further stated that two vessels
of war have been sent to the mouth
Of the Rio Grande to strictly follow
up the proclamation.

E The Philadelphis Convention
appointed committee to deliver to
the President copy of its proceed
ings, of which Reverdy johnson was
chairman. 1t came off on Saturday
Reverdy Johnson made the presenta1
ton speech, and thePresident replied
We have not room or time this week
to notice this affair as it deserved tA
he, but it may be said, as the Gin
cinnati Commercial remarks, that
''the Presidents speech was rather
more absurd than usual" and of
dangerous tendencies" We quote
one paragraph:
'.We have seen hanging upon the
verge of the Government, as it were,
body called, or which assumed to
be, the Congress of the United States,
but, in fact, a Congress of only part
of the States. We have seen this
Congress assume and pretend to be
fer the Union, when its every step
and act tended to pcrpetuate disun-
ion, and to make disruption of the
States inevitable. Instead of pro
noting reconciliation and harmony,
its legislation has partaken of the
character of penalties, retaliation and
revenge. This has been the course
and policy of one department Of
your Government"
Such talk is simply revolutionary
it can have no other object-and
1t seems to be his aim to plunge us
into another civil war, if the people
dare TO dispute his dictorial absurdi
ties, and think for themselves. The
Congress of which he thus speaks is
the Congress of the people, and we
have been taught to believe that the
people il this country rule, but it
seems President johnson thinks diff
ferently--he is right and Congress
wrong; hence, if the people support
Con gress instead of him, the people
are wrong. So be it. Right or
wrong, the free people of this coun-
try will make their own selections
for Congress, and when sent there to
do the nations business, will see that
they are duly received as such, and
their acts recognized as the law of
the land.

H- A distinguished General, high
in position in New Orleans, has writ
ten a private letter to Philadelphia,
under date of August 10, in which
he says: "This city is quiet at pres
ent, but there is no security for
Northern men, except in the military
control. If the troops were removed
there would be no security. In the
late riot, the police did nearly all the
shooting and stabbing, as is shown
by the result, for no policemen were
killed, and only two or three were
wounded by firearms. Counting con-
tusions, and all the number of po-
licemen wounded will not exceed a
dozen; while the negroes and Con-
yentionists killed are at least forty,
and the wounded about two hundred.
There is no doubt, in my mind, as to
who were the rioters. The ihvesti-
CATION will establish it on the police
men. These people profess to be
Mr.. Johnson's friends, but they are
In fact his worst enemies"
