-YentiOR---The Ovation to Sena tor
Trumbull as Enthusiastic Demon
stratiOn---A Wisconsin Attempt.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-The Bread and
Butter State Convention to appoint
delegates to Philadelphia, met at
Springfield to-day. The bulk of the
delegates and outsiders present are
notorious rebel sympathizers. A
very few that ever prefessed to be Re-
publicans are seen. Sam Myers, a
notorious Copperhead, and right
bower of Bishop Whitehouse in the
fight with Bishop McIlvaine and DIR.
Cracraft, called the Convention to or
der. What followed is notyet known.
The reception given to Senator
Trumbull last night was probably the
largest and most enthusiastic political
convention that ever took place here.
The Crosby Opera House was literally
packed from pit to dome, and there
could not have been less than 5000
people in the building. Every seat
and every available inch of standing
room was occupied. Judge Trumbull,
with the committee, arrived at the
Central Depot about seven o'clock,
and he was escorted by the Zouaves,
committee, and large crowd of citi-
zens to the Opera House The streets
all along the line of march were jam
med with people. After reaching the
Opera House, an address of welcome
was made by Hon. j. Y. Scammon,
and the distinguished Senator re-
sponded in a speech of an hour s
length. His speech may be classed
as one of his grandest, if not his
grandest effort. It will not do to mar
its strength and power by any synop-
sis. 1t is a crushing history and re-
view of Andrew Johnson and his
policy for the past year, and will have
a powerful Influence upon the public
mind. .saIfr~.9.f
At the conclusion of Judge Trum-
bulls remarks Hon. Schuyler Colfax
was, called out, and responded in a
very. effective and eloquent manner.
The meeting lasted until IL clock.
The speeches of the two distinguished
men were received with the warmest
applause. A large number of ladies
werein attendance at the meeting.
The Wisconsin Bread and Butter
Convention was complete fizzle. AT
the morning session, not more than
two dozen were present, and In the
evening there was little or no increase
in the number. A sharp discussion
followed as to the propriety of sending
delegates to a convention to be com
| posed of such men as Vallandlgham
Pendleton, &c.

The New Orleans Murderers Tri-
umDhant. t.sf II

Our dispatches yesterday announced
that General Sheridan recommended
that martial law be continued at New
Orleans until the massacre of Monday
should be investigated. Our dis
patches of this morning announce
that martial law has been withdrawn!
Thus the President, whose dispatches
and orders encouraged the murderers
to carry out their designs against the
Union men, has again placed the city
in the hands of the bloodthirsty rebel
element, and as a consequence the
members of the Convention are being
indicted, and those who were liberated
by the military are to be rearrested.
The war upon the Union men is to
be one of determination, and in this
the rebels are sustained by the Presi-
dent of the United States!

The Cincinnati Night Mail.

The negotiations designed to make
arrangements for a through mail to
and from Cincinnati, going by the E.
& G. r., and returning on the morn
ing train on the same road, have now
realized a point where the starting of
said mail depends on contributions of
money to pay the expense of trans
ferring the mail from one depot to the
other at Vincennes, and of carrying
it to and from the depot here. This
point gained, and the mail started,
the continuance of the mail would
depend on the permanence of the
Vincennes accommodation train on
the, E. & G. r., and on the raising of
money, from time to time, to pay the
expense of transfer to and from and
between, depots
The Post Office Department will
not consent that the mail shall be
transferred at Vincennes by any 9TH
er means than through the regular
mail messenger. Neither viii the De-
partment incur any expense for the
extra service. Hence the transfer
J can not be made at the R. r. June

Z The Copperhead Convention for
this Congressional District met at the
State House this forenoon. Some
twenty odd delegates were present to
assist in going through the farce of
nominating a candidate for Repre-
sentative. John NJ. Lord, ESD, Of
this city, was the lucky Individual,
receiving all the votes on the first bal
lot, except the eight votes of Hancock
County, which were cast for James L.
Mason, Esq. d re9.g,L 4. as.
Mr.. Lords nomination having been
made unanimous in the usual style,
he mounted the rostrum and deliver
ed himself of regular old fashioned
Copperhead speech. 1t was rather
out of date since the johnson coali-
ton, but as it was the only one John
knew, he let it off with tolerable good
emphasis, and was cheered by several
of the delegates. lf1.5.. lra
AS the Union majority in the Dis

about 5000, it is believed that long

FRANKFORT. Ky.. Aug. 9


The rebel Democrats of this and
adjoining counties held meeting in
the State House yard here to-day.
In point of numbers it fell far below
what was expected. The committee
confidently expected five or ten thou
sand, but only about fifteen hundred
came to hand.
The meeting was called to order by
G.. w. Craddock, Esq, of the Central
Committee, who introduced Hon.
Thos. P. Atkins, a Missouri refugee,
who proceeded to deliver a regular
secesh speech of the style of 1861:
He denounced the whole North, and
said that the North had refused to
