The principles declared by the Cincinnati Con-
vent1On are free from all ambiguity or assembling
That they are in full accord with the settled con-
yiction Of an overwhelming majority of the Amer-
observer Of the expressions Of popular opinion,
and 1t will not be denied that Horace Greeley and
r. Grs s and ys @
the present, will confront the national de-
premacy Of the civil laws in all the inte-
grail parts OF our free government. They will
resist the effort to unite all patriotic citizens in
grand struggle to restore the Union to an honest
and economical administration to lessen the bur-
dens our industry and energy and to enforce the
great demands OF liberty and law but they cannot
prevail With the preludlces OF political organiza-
ton we have nothing to do. Compelled to sever.
ance from party of whose better record the liberal
republicans are justly proud, we advance to meet
the supreme necessities OF the nation, and
invite the earnest cooperation of all, without sun
dering party affinities, who sincerely desire the
regeneration Of our national, State and municipal
governments
Revolutions take no steps backward. Organza-
ton, immediate and systematic, is our present and
pressing duty The struggle with arrogant and
well-armed power will be desperate for time, but
the issue cannot be doubted. In this political
decentralization OF peace as in the terrible trials OF
war, it will be solemnly decided that government
of the people, by the people and for the people,
Shall not perish from the earth

Pennsylvania Labor Reform Convention.
WILLIAMsPoRT, Pa, May 8, 1872.
Delegates to the Labor Reform Convention are
arriving in limited numbers. Appearances this
morning were decidedly in favor of nominating
candidates which the democracy at Reading would
endorse without hestancy. McCleland, McCamont
and Wright were prominent for the Governorship.
A strong tide has, however, set in this evening in
favor OF the nomination OF gentleman holding no
allegiance to either OF the old parties and the pro-
ject may be carried. Richard Trevellick, j. S. Sy
Wis, Hinchliffe Cameron and others are looked for
this evening as VISITORS and their counses are ex
pected to give strength to this movement Strong
protective resolutions will be offered and fight
made for their adoption, especially by the western
counties.
