Tha Convention and its Result*-
Th* platform ami address of the National
Union Contention, recently held in Philadelphia,
hate been long enough before the public to ena
ble oa to judge of the effieet which ita proceed
inge will have upon the politic* of the (uoutry.
At might hate been expected from the opposi
tion which the movement met with at ita Incep
tion, great objection* are urged to the principle*
enunciated. Many, with touch appearance of
justice, cavil at certain expression* used iu the
adjress, but if the movement retail* in only par
tial conciliation and harmony between the two
■Motion! lately arrayed in arms against each oth
er, it will afford satisfaction to every patriot and
lover of pence.
We think it ie unnecessary to de*igaaia th*
point* to which objection has been made; they
ore »officiently obvioue to every one who ha* *lo
died the proceeding*, . It always happen* in auch
cases that much is said which bad better havo
been left unsaid, and we have to tbahk the ad
mirable management of the leadcra of the Con

gtvt offence to either of the two section# hetween

through the narrow channel between Bcylla and

baric su'fely through with
admirable feoft, • A wet* woe pat on all «rat >-ry
within the walls of the ‘'wigwam”—had they*
suffered the discordant and fiery elements, of
which there were abundance in the Convention,
to blase up into eloquence, the w hole would have
ended la a disastrous failure. At it was, many
an orator who went to PhikdelpLls pregnMif
with a speech which could have done nothing
but harm, was compelled to abort. The Whole
time actually consumed in the regions of the
Ccwreution Is said to have been not qajte six

when tiis company retreated. Tlie citixens at

that unless lie was rvgutarty aid well fed, he
would shoot every one who passed in tbe street*
