THE NATIONAL UNION CONVEX
'ssa@a TION.

We have not yet received the call, but we
learn that one has been Issued from spring
field, signed by republicans and democrats,
for mass state convention at that place, On
Thursday the Cd of August, to appoint dele
gates to the Philadelphia National Union
Convention.
This is, exclusively, a peoples and not a
party movement, and we trust that the peo-
pie in every county will see to it that some
body goes to the convention. No delegates
will be chosen to this state convention, but
everybody who approves Of the call for the
Philadelphia National Union convention is
invited to attend.
We are glad to perceive the general ex'
preston of qualification apparent at the ap
pearance of the call for the Philadelphia con
vension. The Washington papers-the Phil
adelphia Age--the New York World
Albany Argus, and many other journals il
that state--the Hartford Times, New Haver
Reqistcr-Proyidenoe Post-Eastern argus
Portland Adcertiser-N. 81. Ratrsot-indeec
every conservative paper we have seen
north, south, east or west approve the call.
As the Philadelphis convention depends
upon no party organization, the initiatorJ
step for electing delegates dsvolves upor
any ons who feels sufficient interest in hi
country to make an effort to promote its vel
fare.
The Springfield convention will also afford
an excellent opportunity for the republican,
in this state who profess to be friends o
President johnson to show their faith b,
their works. Let them attend the conven
ton and help on the cause by active AM
energetic work, or cease their profession o
friendship for the president.

David S. Miller recalled and his cross exami-

did not notice any more of the conversation
between Maj. Gee aud the man / supposed to be
his brother, than what have stated, that :" they
could kill the yankees faster at Salisbury than
they could in Lees army" Can't tell what time
in October, Maj. Gees brother left Salisbury
left there from six to ten days after the conversa

1t was, suppose from one to two hundred fels
from where I stood on the parapet, to where I
saw the dead body, supposed to be that of Lieut.
Davis. At the time saw the guard fire on the
man, when the chimney fell, l suppose there were
thirty men standing about the door, I don't think
there were more than that-the guard told him if
he did not get back he would fire-Ia am very sure
he told him SO but once-I was in thoupper story
of the building, looking out at the front window,
to see if they carried out any one hurt-I don't
think there was any person killed by the falling
of the chimney-f there had been any person
killed was not in position to have known it, un
less had gone down there--I did not 90 down
stairs when the chimney fell I may have gone
down an hour or 30 afterwards-do think all
the fallen bricks were cleared away when went
down, nor even that day-some had been cleared
away, but don't know how much-there were
no men under the ruins when went there, that
saw-I don't know that the persons covered by
| the ruins had been taken out.
All know about the falling of the chimney is,
that heard one or two had been hurt-it may
have been an hour and it may have been four,
from the time went from the room where was
to where the chimney had fallen in.
Idon't know anything of any one trying to
clear the fuins off the sick men don't know any
thing of the chimney falling on any person-the
chimney had been finished TO the floor of the
fourth story, when the foundations gave way and
it fell; one man who was on the top went down
