The Addrese Of the Union Republican
Conversational Executive COmmtttee.
THE Committee has issued a powerful ADDRESS
to the people of the States which vote in NO
vernber. Il sets before them In the true light
the danger to which a defeat Of the Repubh-
can party is subjeoting our nation. We have
not space to quote from it at length here, but
the whole address will be found elsewhere in
our paper in ertenso. One paragraph contains
the gist of the appeal
''It requires no prophet TO foretell that, II the
November elections should eud In Republican
defeats. the threat of Andrew Johnson on the
since, will be fulfilled at whatever hazard.
Enabled from our opportunities at the national
dence with our agents and friends in the
southern States, TO weigh the sincerity OF
Snese @ @thata.S; We ueGiSre 70 yed You our b s5so
violent, revolutionary, and desperate men but
the belief that they are sustained by the public
opinion of the conquerlng States to adventure
ar other conspiracy, and 10 demand, II neces-
sary by force, their restoration to the power
they welded at so terrible a cost to the public
peace. What patriot will not shrink from con-
tribuLing to such catastrophe2 That the
bowever 5 | terribfeothst the apostate's appeal to
force, though backed by the whole Rebel army,
would end In his own overthrow and their per
petual disfranchisement, may be confidently
anticipated; but when, by the cordial and
united performance of plain and peaceful
uuly ab tue DullOb-DOA III LNONOhubOA JOu you
avoid further bloodshed, assist the great work
of reconstruction, and perpetuate Republican
| ascendancy, few words of ours should be re-
| quired to arouse you to an instant apprehen-
| sion of your country's peril and your own
| solemn obligations"
That the danger here anticipated is not over
estimated cannot be doubted. 1t is real, and
merits the serious consideration of the people
to whom the call is addressed. The appeal
closes with a powerful exhortation to the
Union citizens of the North not to desert the
friends of the Union, white or black, in the
South to the tender mercies of the furious,
though defeated, Rebels. From its tone,
strong and earnest, we anticipate much good.
1t should be circulated broadcast through those
States which have not yet voted.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1867-10-28

live OFF Of others, II the application was TO be
made soon. In fact, the whole system is a
vicious one, and we think that the most
respectable part of the clergy would join
with us in wishing its abolition. II
any Of the delegates can pay, they should
have public spirit enough to pay. If any cannot
pay, then let their church raise the funds to
meet their expenses. II is better TO be under
obligations to their constituents than to
strangers. And If it so happen that some
congregations are too poor to raisethe required
sum, and the pastor himself has not the
means, then let him stay at home. 1t is one
of the evils of poverty to be regretted, but at
the same time not to be avoided.
Such are, frankly, our views on this subject.
We think it tends to lower the dignity of the
cloth. 1t places many gentlemen, who really
do not desire it, in a false and awkward posi-
tion, and while it helps some, its help applies
only to those who are the least deserving Of
ito men who, like the unknown writer
quoted by DR.. Newton, throws an insult into
the faces Of those from whom he is soliciting
a charity. We do not mean to say anything
to place real gentlemen, who accept such invi-
tations, in false position, but we think the
independence Of the clergy would be advanced
and their dignity secured by the total abolition
of this system of quartering them on strangers.
We find no parallel for it except when the
Hessians were billeted on our citizens during
the Revolutionary war.
