States met at Philadelphia on Monday and
affected a temporary organization. after
which the convention adjourned until the
day following. Mr.. Durant, of New Or

by the Chairman of the Convention.
James Speed, of Kentucky, was chosen
permanent President; Vice President
from each State, and about the same num-

On the Presidents taking the Chair l c

glowing, eloquent and patriotic address.
But little more business, besides the ap
pointment of the usual committees, was
transacted during the day.
The delegates from the Northern State:
did not meet with the Southern Unicnist:
or Offer to transact any business.

The Democrat man or men like TO ask
questions, but never answer any Wehave
generally answered all the questions they
have propounded to us, but as they pay no
attention to those We PROFOUND them we
shall use oar pleasure about answering
theirs In their last issue they ask us sew
cral questions bat make no response what
ever to those we propounded them the
week previous. II they will answer our
interrogatOries of the sd ult, and tell US
where to find the law authorizing them to
charge s square for publishing the head
lines and notice attached to the Delinquent
List, over and above tie &C cents per tabu-
lar description, we will tell them all we
know about the matters about which they
enquire.

The FenianS.

The Democrat quotes from this paper &c
prove that our sympathy for Irish liberty
is feigncd. We have never profeSsed un
due admiration for Irishmen simply be
cause they are Irishmen. nor have we eX
pressed contempt for them and their caus,
because OF The accident OF birth. We have
said, and continue to say, if the Fcnians are
ready to bcstow upon all men the liberty
which they crave for their native land, We
are with them heart and soul. and we have
demonstrated that it is impossible for them
to command the SympathieS and assistance
of MON men unless they cease 10 act will
party that has proven false to liberty, falsI
TO them. and only true to slavery, treason
rebellion and intolerance.
In times past the Irish people have voted
with the Democratic party solid. They
have made it part of their faith to vote
the unscratchcd Democratic ticket. They
have. as Irislmcn, supported that party
and have won for it all the victories il has
achieved in the last ten years. Their pref
udices, religious and national, have been
played upon to such an extent that they
have regarded Republican as an enemy
TO their race; they would not read our doc
uments nor listen TO our public speakers
In this way people whose every impulse
should be in favor of liberty, have voted
for and with the advocates of man-stealina
and woman-whipping, and have been paid
with the bascSt ingratitude in their hour OF
need by the party to which they were so
blindly devoted. Meanwhile the Republi-
can party has never gone ont ofits way to
attack Irishmen. They have patiently wait
ed for the opportunity to arise when they
could reach their ears, convinced that THEN
principles would eventually command the
support OF every lover of liberty and hater
of oppression They have directed their
fire at the bulwarks of hoary-hcaded error
and if lrishmen have heard their shells
screaming above their heads, let them be
warned that they are, so long as they act
with the Democratic party, opposing the
unconquerablc hosts of freedom, and il
they desire a share in the triumph of liber-
ty over the combined hosts of slavery. trca-
son and the Democratic party, they must
array themselves under her banners.
The Union party is not in a situation to
get down on its knees to any set of men,
While it extends the hand of welcome to
all who desire to do battle for liberty in
this country, and is ready to assist in the
regeneration of other lands, it must not be
expected that it will stOop TO the base
means adopted by the Democratic party 10
secure support. 1t possesses the confidence
of every man who loves his country and is
earnest enough to break the bonds of par
~ and vote with the men whose exertions
maintained our national credit. raised, arm
ed and supplied our armies. 1t has rec
ord of glory, and it expects to deserve sue
cess in the future by devotion to the cause
of liberty and the rights of man.

Questions for the Democrat
To answer.

If the present Congress is a rump Con
gress because all the States are not repre-
sented, is not the President a rump Presi-
dent for the reason that all the States did
not participate in the election?
Can rump President any more than a
rump Congress do a legal act?
Can a rump President remove 4 post
master or other officer who was appointed
by a President chosen at a time when all
the States participated in the election, and
of the legality Ofwhose election there is no
question?

1t is related of General WASHINGTON that
meeting negro one day ON a s,.tcet in
Richmond, Va, the General retltned the
polite salutation of the African gcg ieman,
when a companion of the Generals ex-
claimed: ''Why General. do you raise your
hat to a niggcr:' ''Would you allow a ne
gro to excel you in politeness:" replied the
General.
If the individual who was so amazed at
Washington's politencSs to the negro were
living now, he would doubtless be nasty,
snotty-nosed Coppcrhead.

Dispatches by the cable state that in con
sequence of the news of the proceedings of
the Philadelphia Convention there had been
great advance in Confederate bonds in
England. The London Times. in a long
editorial congratulaies President Johnson
and the United States on the result of that
Convention. Just as we expected. There
is undoubtedly an understanding between
the wirepuilcrs of the Johnson party and
the Confederate bOndhoidcrs of great Brit
ain, and English gold is to be used for the
purpose of defeating. if possible, the meas
urcs of the Union party

Our adyices by the Cable are to the LIST
inst. The terms of peace between Austria
and Italy are in rapid progress towards
settlement. The London Times has receiv-
ed new light. in view of the recent raid
into Canada. 1t now sees the necessity of
neutrality laws that will hold each Gov
eminent responsible for violations of law
committed by subjects. Drouyh dc Lhuys,
the French Minister of Foreign Affairs;
has resigned. and MouthOlon succeeds him.
The Grand Duke of Darmstadt refuses the
PrJlssian treaty. The f,rmalities OF the ces-
sion of Venctia to Italy have consumma-
ted.

The New Internal Revenue
Law.


The Chicago Tribune of Thursday CON
tanned carefully prepared and valuable
compilation of the changes made in our in
ternal revenue taxation by the act of Con-
gress of July l3. 1866. The statement
presents in parallel columns The differences
between the new and the old law. The
reductions are very gratifying and import
ant, especially the long free list. The tax
alton on ron is greatly reduced. Peirole-
UNI, paper, coal, slaughtered animals.
ireights and repairs are all placed on the
free list
The manufacturers of domestic cigars
are benefited by very considerable reduc-
ton of the tax on their products, and a
liberal exemption is made on behalf of tai
lors, shoemakers, matters, milliners, dress
makers, and all the class of small manufac-
turers. The-taX on sugar is reduced one
half The tax on general manufactures is
lowered generally from six to five per cent,
in some instances to two per cent. The
tax of six per cent on chemicals is gener-
ally abolished. A great stimulus is given
to the production of native wines, by their
being placed upon the free list, while all
limitations thereof are taxed fifty cents a
gallon, and the duty ON foreign wines is
very high.
On the whole remaining range of manu-
features the tax is reduced from six to five
per cent. The tax on new cotton, which
was two cents per pound, is raised to three
cents, which is the only increase on any
important product. The reduction of excise
it is estimated, will amount to upwards of
sixty millions per annum. Next winter it
is i'm contemplation to make still further re-
auctions of taxation. The income tax will
be materially reduced-ihe ten per cent to
five, and the five to three, are the probable
reductions. Each year taxation will be
made lighter. The productions ofthe ma
ton are increasing SO rapidly that Congress
can safely abate the per cent of excuses and
increase the free list at each session, and
still rapidly pay off the national debt

Turpie smoke at Calumet last Frida

Turpie spoke at Calumet last Friday to
a crowd of 2O3, counting loyal men, oil
whom there was smart sprinkle, women
children and Copperheads. During his
speech he repeated the word ''nigger" 59i
times.
\. Quincy, Esq, spoke at the same
place at night to a crowd OF some 800, al
though it was dark and rainy, and showed
up the worthlessness of Mr.. Turpie's argu-
ments to the entire satisfaction of every
candid man and woman present.

COttOu CrOD.

Letters from Alabama say that the cot
ton crop will average about one half as
compared with that of 1861. Reports
from the Mississippi bottom plantations are
more favorable, although the crop there j:
not near so large as it was expected it would
be. The corn crop is very abundant in ev-
cry part ofthe South.

One of General Sheridan's dispatches to
General Grant, concerning the New Or
leans riots, says: Il believe that at least
nine-tenths of the casualties were perpe-
trated by the police and citizens by stabbing
and smashing the heads of many who had
been already wounded or killed by police
men.
