CoAERADEs:-The National Executive
Committee again calls your attention
to the importance of having every
State fully represented at the National
Convention, to be held at Chicago on
the 18th inst, in response to the call al
ready Issued, for dellberation upon ma
uonal questions and the selection OF q
standard bearer for the coming Pres
idential campaign.
Treason defeated in the field must moi
RUE at the ballot box.
Opposed to you are arrayed the late
Confederate army of the South and
their more treacherous allies, the Cop
perheads of the North. They conjoint-
IL seek to distract and divide the friends
of the Union.
But yesterday they were using the
bullet TO overthrow the Government
to-day they are using the ballot to con-
troll IL.
They fought TO keep the rebellious
States ont of the Union; they are now
voting to accomplish the same results.
They would make loyalty crime
and treason respectable.
They would dishonor the loyal living
and make infamous the memory of the
patriot dead.
They have organized midnight
"KlRns," and made assassination q
They have revived the spirit of the
rebellion and renewed Its atrocities and
crimes.
Those enemies of the country in the
North who are ready to clasp the hands
of unrepentant rebels in the South
have persistently opposed you through
the war.
"They discouraged enlistments, leay-
ing you unsupported in the most try
Ing exigencies. They libelled the ma
tional credit, that they might diminish
the sinews of war and subject you TO
priyations and hardships; as mobs they
fought against you in our streets, di-
yerting the troops needed in the field to
watch and restrain their plottings.
They have closed the door of public Of
flee against the wounded soldier, and
opened 1t to scurvy politicians.
"Comrades, you are the victims oi
these malign and treacherous influ-
ences; yours is the power to correct
them."
Let the same spirit that guided you
in war council you in peace.
We urge upon you unity and action.
The loyal strength of the nation must
move and act with unbroken columns
and newer victories will reward the
same cause for which you have made
SO many sacrifices.

O'Clock noon. on Tudsday, May 10.
