THE PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION.
We lay before our readers to-day th# ad
dress and resolutions adopted by this body
as the platform of the new party organiza
tion, having for its object the maintenance of
the restoration policy of the President. The
social and political standing of the delegates
composing this Convention, and the bar-
mofiy of (feeling and unanimity of sentiment
which characterized the proceedings, are
well calculated to inspire a hopeful confi
dence in the efficacy of the measures of re
lief they have proposed. The most agree
able, and, perhaps, significant feature fcLthe
proceedings of this body, is that all the
States were recognized as equals. Not oue
was excluded from participation in its de
liberations. Georgia and the other Southern
States stand upon the same political plat
form with those of the North and West, in
all matters relating to the constitutional
rights and general welfare of'the whole peo
ple. Discarding all sectionalism, the dele
gates acted and parted in the spirit of nnity,
peace, and mutual concession. It was this
spidt which enabled the sages and statesmen
of the Revolution to frame a Constitution ac
ceptable to a people scattered over a vast ex
tent of territory, whose local interests were
dissimilar, and whose trade and business ne
cessities caused their demands for legisla
tion frequently to clash and conflict; and it
is this spirit, and no other, that mast restore
the Union in the present hour of peril and
political anarchy.
That some of the resolutions are objection
able to the Southern people we cannot but
admit, yet it was not to be expected that a
platform could be constructed, framed as
tbia waa with apecial reference to the North,
without in some particular wounding South
ern sensibilities. Nothing but the necessi
ties and exigencies of the approaching can. our oemmta
vasa with the Radicals we are assured could
have induced our Northern friends in the
Convention to present ip their resolu
tions matterswhich they doubtless knew
would be distasteful to the Southern
people. Bat the resolutions are, for the most
part unexceptionable, and advocating as they
do every measure of reconstruction embraced
in President Johnson’s policy, will be gene
rally accepted. The framers of the distaste
ful resolutions are as implacable enemies to-
the Radicals as ourselves, and although their
work ia not unassailable, yet remembering
the great delicacy of their task, and looking
to the good results promised by the success
of the movement they have initiated, we feel
that it is our duty to support cordially the
decisions of the Convention, and we doubt
not they will be acceptable to the Conserva
live masses throughout the country. We re
cognize fully the conservative spirit wbicb
animated the members, and feel assured that
the effect of its deliberations will be im
mensely to strengthen the great popular
movement which is destined soon to over
whelm the Radical faction. The resolutions
and address make a square and well defined
issue on the great question of reconstructing
the Union. There can be no third party, no
middle ground. It is truth, patriotism and
prosperity on one side of the political line—
error, sectionalism and a distracted conntry
on the other. Not only have the Radicals
nasnmed a national authority to enter the
States and control their local affairs, but they
have in addition assumed the power of de
priving the people of the inalienable right of
representation by refuting to admit membars
of Congress. This is another step ln r tiife di
rection of consolidation, and this new conaer-
vative party mast meet the issue and decide
upon it at the ballot box.

Picayune, tbe Citizen’s authority for tbe con
tradiction, but we.do know, on good author
ity, that Mr. Davis was annoyed at some of
ttw possagw in tbe narrative. A gentleman,
one of the m'ost intimate friends he possesses,
has so stated. He is said to have remarked
tfiat "some of the conversations reported
therein were of a nature which should not

which they, with the Conservative* here, have bat *

was in hell.'' Another “colored gentleman”
addressed the audience—a Dr. P. T. B. Ran

President Johnson in behalf of negro educa

his ravings:

The city is full of returned Conventionista. The
President - * frieeds tree jubilant over She Convention.
They are ne ver done talking about its enthusiasm and
its harmony qM. it#Matf«to>*f principles. They pro.
fess to think they will carry everything before them
in the coming elections. Some of the Southern era
think the aodt h.wse rsqntiofl ta eat a little more dirt
than wtisirloiy rMtoarf, and the famous grand
try of South Carolina and kfaaaachusetta is laughed at
as a slight step from the su blime to the ridiculous
But sure it is, the getters up of the Convention con
sider it a perfect success. The President is sanguine
of awraplng.;etofy*i«gtoA>a» hfeft in the North,

the rub.

Some of the Presi dent’s friends have for aome time-been
urgent toe him to cons down upon Maximilian ass
political movement. They my the people of the United
States are wedded to the Monroe doctrine, and the
exhibition ef decision in its anfbroement would be re
ceived with great satisfaction by the American people,
and that the way to get peace at home was to keep up
a tones abroad. It U eritild the people, “don’t have
some foreign cause of quarrel, they will pick a home
cause among themselves.” They refer to the exam
ple of France, and my Louis Phillipe lost his throne
by being too anxious to preserve peace, and that Louis
only keeps, his by giving the Siting ele-
tfe every now and
then. The importance of this proclamation of the
President about Matamoraa, ia owing to Its being aa
indication of a policy to hart somebody abroad, if ne
cessary to keep the peace at home. This ia an old
trick. Lord Bacon says a foreign war, ft a necessary

i Departed this life on the 27th of June, Dr. JOHN
GOB DON HOWARD, aged forty-eight—a faithful and
devoted husband, a tender father, a steadfast friend,
a limdhi sad consistent Christian.'
Suddenly called away from a successful career of
uaefulneiB and benevolence—suddenly torn from all
the endearments of home and life and love—he waa
found ready ; and yielding, without a murmur, to the
high behest of the God whom he had served all bis
lifelong, he calmly resigned his spirit unto “Him
who gave it”
Eminently qualified for the noble profession of his
choice, he hae left a void in his peculiar department
which will be long and severely felt Graceful, fluent
and clear, bis earneat and skilful delineations aa a lec
turer happily blended pleasure with profitable instruc
tion, and made the pathway to science bright end
alluring.
Bat it was more particularly in his social relations,
and within the sacred precincts of home, that the
light of hia happy heart shone brightest His genial
and kindly temperament diffused itself on all around
him, comforting the sorrowing and, amid his own
sore bereavement*, teaching that with the Christian
all ia well. And though the light has faded from that
happy home, and the voice of the weeper ia heard
where once aU was gladness, there are sweet memo
ries clustering there to remind us that, *-Blessed are
the dead who die in the Lord,*’ and lilt our hearts to
the hope of a joyful resurrection.
