It is very clear that Gen. Manteuifel, IN ap-
parent violation of the Armistice agreement
between Bismarck and Favre, pursued Bour-
baki's army for two OF three days after the
Armistice went into effect in the Provinces
and the remonstrance of the half of the French
Government which is at Bordeaux finds JUST
ficatiOn in that fact. But the enraged Minister
Gambetts has forgotten to consider In his
protest an important point which warranted
Manteuffel in his movements. BY the
terms of the Armistice the contend
ing armies in the Provinces were to
retain the relative positions in which the
hour of noon on January 81 found them. 1t

named, Bourbaki's army was in such dis
orderly and demoralized fight toward Swift
zerland that it could MT be halted, and when
it continued to fee (after noon of January

pursuit And it appear, that he pursued with

vor Of calling such q convention at some
point in the West, and on day not later
Than the ed OF February, The call
should DC issued by the National Execu-

should be 10 carefully and patiently
weigh all the views laid before it, and
to agree upon and publish a clear and
definite declaration Of principles upon
al! matters affecting the political welfare
Of our people, and the safety of our free
institutions. This being done, it should
adjourn to day fixed for the nomina-
ton Of a candidate for the Presidency.
In the meantime the people in the States
can discuss and approve or disapprove
Of what has been done. 1t would BE-
the duty of all Democrats, taking part
in politics, to submit TO the voice Of the
majority. If there are such as prefer
their own convictions, even to the plat.
form Of q National Convention, they can
step aside in quiet, without embarrassing
anybody else. Let us, however, have
political as well as personal harmony
and success is within our reach. IL the
entire Democratic vote can be CONSOLE
