THE JOHNSON UNION MEETING
In CONNECTICUT.

i
necticut, April l7th,) with its organization,
its resolutions and its address to the people
II was composed Of men Of sterling character,
Of great local influence, Of unquestioned 10y
atty, who for years have acted with the politi-
cal organization known as the Union party
To any one familiar with the politics Of that
State, the significance and importance Of this
meeting will be at once apparent. 1t was
participated in by men who have built up the
Union party; who furnished it with their
means; who led public sentiment in its fa-
vor; who generously aided in the support of |
the war; and who do not intend TO have that |
party switched of from the sublime purpose |
for which it was originated, and become the |
propagandist Of novel ideas and fatal issues.
We do not oyerstate the fact when we say
that these men, who now fling out the old
banner Of the Union party, under which, in
the field and on the forum, such marvellous
victories have been gained, are the real sub.
stance Of that party in Connecticut. They
are men Of business, men who have vast in
terests at stake, men who have been honored |
with public confidence; all Of them have |
held conspicuous positions; they are not en- |
thusasts or adventures they are the bona |
Jide representatives of the people Of that |
seo,on' anu 'n"' 'u -. -. .V'a.o
time-honored principles for which they have |
been contendng, shows how injurious has
been the effect of the unwise delay Of Con
gress upon the subject Of restoration upon
