we, in this boosted age of wisdom and OF
enlightened political science, have before US
in America, in immediate anticipation, a
spectacle of the bloody convention of 1888
that covers so terrible a period in the histo-

ton of power, ard the same disdainful treat
ment of the other branches of the govern
ment, that led to such fearful results there,
are now daily demonstrated by the Jaoobin
majority in the Congress ofthe United States.
The Executive is, by their acts, shorn of thu
powers delegated to him by the Constitn-
ton and to such straights of impotence is
he reduced, that he must needs yield up
without a struggle his constitutional func
tons, or, in defence of them, resort to revo-
lution--that last remedy of {? people whose
government, instead of securing to them the
protection of life, liberty and property, be-
comes the instrument of their degradation
and ruin. We say the alternative is pre-.

Each State in the United States is author
lied to be represented in said Convention by
number of delegates equal to twice the
number of Senators and Representatives to
which each State is entitled in the National
Congress. We invite the cooperation of all
citizens who rejoice that our great civil war
has happily terminated in the discontinue OF
rebellion; who would hold fast the unity
and integrity Of the Republic, and maintain
its paramount right to defend to the utmost
its own existence. whether imperiled by
secret conspiracy or armed force; of ali
friends of an economical administration OF
the public expenditure; of the complete ex.
tirpation of the principles and policy Of
slavery. and of the speedy reorganization Of
those States whose governments were de-
stroyed by the rebellion. and their perman-
ent restoration to their proper practical
relations with the United States in accord
ance with the true principles of republican
government.
