Governor Wells Letter.

We publish on the first side of this paper
the letter of Governo. Wells of Louisiana
addressed to the loyal people of that State.
1t gives the history of the State govern
ment and lis policies, from its organiZa
ton in 1861 down to its recent humiliation
by the wanton interference of President
Johnson i'm behalf of its enemies. In COM
men;ing on the letter the Chicago Tribune
trnthfully remarks:
The letter is a frank confession of the
present dcplorable condition of affairs in
Louisiana. and it is really painful to the
feelings of every lover of his country TO re
fleet how easily that condition might have
been averted and Louisiana now enjoy her
original status as loval State ofthe Union
If any of our readers failed from any cause
to read that letter of Governor Wells, we
beg them to get it, and not lay it down I'M
i'll they have closed the painful recital of
how the best interests. the present and flu
ture peace of the country. and the person
al liberty and lives of a portion of the peo-
pie have been sacrificed in seryile Obedi-
ence to mistaken policy.
The Governor. after detailing the events
VI tiiN 'td't
Government, and of his own elevation soon
after to the Executive chair, distincly states
that he closely followed the policy of john
son. but in so doing was actuated by the
hope that he would arouse and excite in
the breasts of the rebel population some
spark of gratitude and kindness TO people
and Government that had dealt with them
so nobly. forbearingly and generously. For
this reason he rejected the counsels Of his
friends. rejected the prophetic advice of
the Union men of the State, and continued
day after day and in step after step, nurs-
ing into life as malignant class of ingrates
as ever returned infamy for kindness. The
whole story SO piteously, and yet so truth
fully related by Governor Wells is but the
fulfillment OF the fears so anxiously eX-
pressed a year ago, when President john
son decided upon restoring the rebel States
to the rebels. and of placing the work of
demonstrating the Union in hands already
crimsoned in efforts to destroy it.

that as a cheap clean and safe fuel, Peat

Wonder If there are no peat beds in this

extensively. That they will be, sooner or
later, there 10 not much doubt.

The Lesson of the Hour.

On our first page may be found the adj
dress of Governor Wells to the loyal peo-
pie of Louisiana, showing in vivid colors
the deplorable results of temporizing with
treason and relying upon the honor of reb-
els sufficiently to trust them with the DOW
ers of government which they fought
four long years to destroy. The terrible
fate of the martyred Dostie awaits every
Southern lOyalist, and it becomes a matter
ofyital concern to their friends in the North.
In considerable portion of this country
loyalty is regarded as an offence against
the peace of society, to be punished at the
discretion of red-handed rebels.
Let.us look the question square in the
face. We have encouraged our friends in
the South in the belief that they would be
protected from violence at the hands of re-
turned rebels, if they would boldly avow
themselves; we have proclaimed the doc
trine that treason is odious, and that un-
repentant rebels should forever be debarred
from taking part in the government of the
country. Scarce eighteen months ago we
were calling upon these Southern men to
aid us in crushing the rebellion, and with
out their assistance the war might have had
a different issue. They were faithful
among the faithless found; they participa-
ted in every battle, sharing alike in defeat
and victory; they distracted the councils
of treason, and compelled the employment
of regiments and brigades of rebels by their
hostility to the Confederaey; they served
as guides to our army, and conveyed val
liable information to our generals. For
the sake of the Union which they loved.
they braYed torture and death; they had
trial of cruel mockings and scoursings, yea
moreover of bonds and imprisonment: they
were stoned, were tempted, were slain with
the sword; they wandered about in sheep
skins and goatskins, being destitute, affiict-
cd, tOrmented; they wandered in deserts,
and in mountains. and in the caves of the
earth" The country owes to them its most
Jealous protection, but in consequence of
the policy" of an accidental President, a
traitor alike to the party which elected him
and the country, we now behold these de-
voted friends of Freedom fleeing from their
homes, hunted ike fugitives from justice,
shot down for their devotion to the Union,
or prescribed by their rebel neighbors-
The collapse of the rebellion was so sud-
den that it found the loyal people of the
North divided on the question Of recon
struction. Our whole energies had been
strained and bent to the purpose of sup
pressing the rebellion, and we were con-

Let the candid reader ponder over what
the Honorable Horace Maynard, of Tenn.
SAYS about the importance Of the coming
election. He writes TO Gov. Brownlow as
follows:
Il shall endeavor to be i'm Tennessee
shortly. and at Nashville by the time the
Legislature convenes. / see the rebels howl
over the proposed amendment to the Con-
stitution. That ought to determine the
Union men at once. Gov. PierpOnt sent
me, this morning, an editorial from the
Richmond Times of yesterday, the most
violent, wicked, malignant and devilish.-
The great fight will be in the coming cleo
ton this fall. If the Union men sustain
themselves the onward course of events is
easy and pleasant for the country. If they
are overthrown then the Southern Confed-
eracy rcvives, and starts out on new ca

THE PHILADELPHIA CON
EENTEON.
ValIandigham vyitEidraXs.


Tuesday was the day appointed for the
assembling of the new Copperohnson party
at Philadelphia. Only a temporary or
ganization was effected and some unim-
portant business transacted, when the Con
vention adjourned.
Mr.. Randall, at half-past two, called the
body to order, and proposed Gen. Dix for
temporary Chairman, and he was declared
elected. His speech was in great part
reproduction of Andrew Johnson on The
eleven excluded States, and representation.
When he closed, all rose and fairly howl
ed.
Then followed prayer, in which the ag-
riculture, the science and the mechanic
arts received fair share of attention.
After the reading of the call, Senator
| DOolittle presented several resolutions re
garding business, the principal one being a
gag to cut off debate by Immediately refer
ring all resolutions and questions concern
ing credentials to the proper committees
without ado. The announcement of the
committee was going on as rapidly as the
cut,and-dried lists could be read, when
| Just at the reading of the last one, Tom
Florence, the Vallandi"ham of Washing
| ton. rose and suggested that the Blair-Ran-
dali Campbell circular, inviting the Demo
Gratis as such to participate, should he read.
| This caused a very general sensation,
and the Doolittle men looked blank and
apparently anxious to oblige him. The
Secretary began To read what Browning
had handed him. when Florence, too sharp
to be caught by chaff, mildly suggested
1 fbat al National namncratip call VaS not
what he asked for, and when the reading
was over. the manager. not being able TO
find q copy of that unfortunate document,
Florence produced copy of il from his
pocket and coolly handed it up, and there
being no further excuse il was read.
AT the close of this little episode the re-
naming committees were announced, when
| Randall handed note to Montgomery
Blair, asking him to move an adjournment,
as a great storm was coming up; but
whether this referred to the movement OF
Florence. or to the rain was not clear, tho
i'm few moments the whole interior of the
house was flooded by heavy shower. All
seemed TO breathe frccr when the adjourn
ment came and no row had occurred.
| There was throughout great effort to
appear enthusiastic. but lack of il there
was very great restraint
The absence of Nallandgham was great
relief to the late Union men. He announ-
ced his determination to withdraw about
| 10 o'clock. after having been labored with
during the whole night by all who were
supposed to have any influence over him.

tent to welcome peace, hoping the wisdom
of our statesmen would devise plan which
should secure justice to all. The loyal peo
pie OF this country are generous people
Retaliation has formed no part of their pol
icy, they have not asked for the blood of
traitors to eXpiate the crime of rebellion,
but have magnanimously rendered the olive
branch of peace, and Invested their hearts
of all desire for vengeance. But we have
been deceived in the character of the peo-
pie with whom we had to deal. Mistaking
our mercy for the evidences of fear, they
have grown more arrogant hourly, and to-
day the South is as completely ruled by the
secession leaders as she was at any time
during the war.
The leaders of the rebellion now hope to
achieve by mob violence in their own sec
ton and by the votes of their friends and
of timid men in the North, what they lost
on the battlefield. The riots at Memphis
and elsewhere, and the terrible massacre
at New Orleans are parts of a preconcerted
plan, by which it has been determined 10
crush freedom ofspeech, overawe the press.
and drive every loyal man out of the South.
Rebel companies, regiments and brigades.
still retain their organizations, at least in
the cities. and these furnish the crowds
which join in the ficndish cry, "kill the
Id Niger. or yankee" as the case may
he.
Is it too late to withdraw from these peo-
pie the political power which they have
usurped? Has the time passed when, ris-
ing above our prejudiccs and fears. we can
refuse suffrage to the disloyal and confer
it upon the loyal alone? This course. it
seems to us, is the only one that will pre-
serve us from another civil war. 1t is, in
reality, the only true policy: ii is justice to
our friends. it is mercy to the rebels them
selves, who have grown more arrogant and
proscriptive with every concession that has
been made to them. Let every Union man
be prepared to move forward TO the new
line, and with Suffrage to the Loyal in
scribed upon our banners we cannot fall
short of victory.
