The Philadelphia Convention
Has dissolved into thin air and left nothing
.. but an ill odor behind. The whole affair is
a transparent swindle. VALLANDIGHAM and
Woon were bought off from taking seats in
the assembly, while scores of delegates of
precisely the same record, but of obscurer
names, took their seats without a question-
The‘gag was applied to all discussion. and
an appearance of unanimity secured by
choking Ofl debate. It is perfectly evidept
from the proceedings, that the managers did
not dare to seller anybody to speak. The
Convention, like the ostrich, buried its head
in the sand, forgetting that it thus only left
its nether extremities more conspicuously
exposed.
The Resolutions are made up of common-
places which nobody disputes, and the for-
mal assertion of the doctrine that a Rebel,
as soon as he stops fighting, has a right to be
a member Of Congress, and the Government
of the United States has no power to pre-
vent it. The omission of any recognition of
the rights of the emancipated citizen is as
conspicuous as the above doctrine is start-
ling.
The address is eminently worthy oi its
author. After floundering through four col-
umns of platitudes it intimates pretty broad-
ly that the Rebels are fully justified in be-
ginning another Rebellion iorthwith, and to
prevent their doing it, resolves its members
and their followers into a grand organization
of political swindling and treachery. They
don't propose to form a new party, 0, no !
The members are to go home, the Copper-
heads to attend Democratic Conventions
and the Johnsonites to attend Republican
Conventions to secure candidates by both
acceptable to both. This cannot hurt the
Copperheads for their Conventions will do
this thing any how. But the Republicans
are of different material, and in their Con-
ventions the Johnsonites are to present
themselves as still good Republicans, secure
the Committees and organization and Reso-
lutions if possible, at all events, the Candi-
dates. If successful in this, they are to sup-
’port'the candidates in the election and the
copperheads are to support their own, so
thatno-matter which wins, the person elect-
ed shall be a. Philadelphia Convention fol-
lower. But if the Republicans are so un-
grateful as to refuse thus to be led by the
nose, but actually nominate a Republican
instead of a J ohnsonite, then the whole rag-
tag-and-bobtail of J ohnsonites are to betray
their Republican associates and cast their
votes for the copperhead candidate. In this
way it is hoped to secure Governors and Con-
gressmen who will follow the Philadelphia
Convention. A meaner, more despicable
scheme of political tricker was never con-
cocted by the potolfousc politicians of the
sixth ward. ’
But, gentlemen, this won’t do I You have
chosen to go to bed with this copperhead
gang, and, till you do better things, you must
bet content to stay there. The Godfreys,
freys, Babcocks, Goulds, Minors, Prentisses,
Hollisters, Winchesters and the like, who
cuddled into this conspiracy at New Haven
with Bishop, Burr, Fairman, Gallagher,
Rogers, and the rest of the copperhead
crew, must stay out of Republican Conven-
tion's till, as openly as they have betrayed
their,party,or suffered themselves to be placed
in the attitude of betraying it, they repudiate
all connection and sympathy with this mon-
grel organization. The Philadelphia Con-
vention is in as deadly hostility to the Re-
publicansas was the Convention that nomi-
na'wd McClellan. Those who adhere to the
former have no more right to participate in
the» nomination Of Republican candidates
than Ihad those who adhered to the latter:
and neither hereafter will be permitted to do
so in Connecticut.
This, indeed, is one happy result of the
Philadelphia Convention. The Republican
decks will be cleared of much rubbish. The
“Hessians” havejumped overboard, and the
ship with the rattlesnake flag, that is labor-
ing behind, will pick them up. They go to
their own place, and the places which have
known them will know 'them no more. De-
livered from these incumbrances, the UNION
REPUBLICAN PARTY, strong in the righteous-
ness of its principles, in the justice of its
policy, in the popular confidence, and in
faith in the right, will maintain the suprema-
cy, which it now possesses in every truly
loyal state, until it shall pervade the entire
Republic with its beneficent spirit, and win
even the hearts of its enemies by the pOWer
of its truth. .

It was only yesterday that our splendid
steamer Schuyler, beat the old Continental a
distance of about jive miles, on the trip up
fromNew-York. New Haveners own up,
that since the Schuyler commenced to run
from this port, the Continental makes quick-
e'rtrips than formerly—owing, of course, to
her attempts to keep up wnh the Schuy-
ler.—Bridgqport Standard.
wJust so. And the reason the Schuy-
ler makes such good time and burns so much
coal, is on account of her efforts to keep up
with our beautiful steamer “Neversink.”

An Inside View.
The period for the long prepared, long
talked Of Convention came and has gone.
Havmg been “a locker on” at the “Wigwam”
we propose a brief review. First ; in
all its detail of prearrangemcnt, it was most
admirably planned; in point of numbers, and
representative character of its delegates, it
was large and imposing; in its discipline,
conduct and management, its leaders exhibit-
ed the most consumate skill and worldly
wisdom; taking it from their own stand
point, the Convention in its entirety, must
have been an unexpected success. All this,
it is due to truth aud’fairness to concede, and
yet no man, we opine, who reviews its sub-
stance and action, can refrain from the ln-
quiry “who composed it 1’” why did it con-
vene‘? what is expected to result from it?
The first inquiry'is best answered by scan-
ning its delegates. From the South, as was
to have beeen expected, the prominent char-
acters were such as were first and foremost
in precipitating the rebellion, and many, like
Gen. Dick Taylor, having borne arms against
the government. As greatly as we must ab'
hor their treason, there is nevertheless an
innate feeling of respect for men who have
the moral and physical courage to peril their
lives in defence Of the errors they may es-
pouse, and were this class of men to express
or exhibit any genuine contrition for past
wrongs, or pledge future fidelity, there
would be an end of controversy and the un-
ion might indeed be restored. From the
loyal states, however, a large majority oi the
delegates were composed of leading, pro'mt';
neat, and most obnoxious “00pperlwads.’
Men who throughout all the war discouraged
enlistments, refused the ballot to the soldier,
did anything and everything to encourage
the rebels in arms and discourage and embar-
rass the government in its efforts to crush
treason. - The Pendletons, the Seymours, the
Woods, the Guthries, the Davises, and Val-
landighams, are but fair and honest ' repre-
sentatives of the great majority of Northern
delegates. Of the J ohnson-republicans, pres-
ent, an omnibus would have held all who
were not directly or indirectly interested in
some Federal office. '
' Their interest in the convention is suffi-
ciently explained by the fact that the con-
vention was the pet child of Andrew John-
son, and his desire that it should receive the
support of his Ofilce holders was industrious-
ly announced. Indeed the convention was
most remarkable in that sofew ofice holding
Johnson men were of the number. It was
evident too, that many of this latter class who
were present, evinced no interest in the af-
fair and very plainly desired to have done
with it, and return to their more comfortable
duties at home. Thus nulch for the personal
of the Convention. With the exception oi
Thurlow Weed, Who long since took formal
leave of the Republican party and Henry J.
Raymond, who are both as intent upon break-
ing up the old Republican organization as
their new allies were in destroying the Union,
and who with ,Mr. Seward, it is notorious,
have never forgiven our party for nominating
Mr Lincoln at Chicago—with the bare excep-
tion of these malignants, there were scarce a
score of delegates who ever were Republicans,
of prominence sufiicient to challenge even
a. passing notice. The numbers, the ability
the celebrity, were with the old, disloyal, treas'
on loving, Union Hating'democracy, and it is
no exaggeration to charge upon them the
leading interest in the convention.
an WAs THE CoNVENTION CALLED ?
If it was to congregate a motley crowd of
jolly spirits fora “good'time,” there can be
no question of its complete success. Every
man, no matter what his party affiliations or
opinions, seemed to have attained the pinacle
of soclal happiness. We observed our whil-
Ome consistent friend Babcock in company
with E. S. Cleveland, Jas. E. English, Galla-
ger and Eaton, as hilarious as a boy at school.
It is true, the uttermost caution was taken to
estop free speech in the Convention, yet eve-
ry member seemed moved by a common im-
pulse to the most jocular moods. If the Con-
vention were called for the transfer of the
few Johnson men, of Republican extraction
over to the democracy, it may have mensur-
ably,though it did not largely consummate its
purpose. If to launch anew party were the
purpose, that also failed. If thccabinet Min-
ister who chiefly inaugurated the Convention
for the pleasure of the President expected
that the old, knarled “war horses of the den
mocracy” were to abandon their name and
organization; then P. M. General Randall
was the most disappointed man in America.
WHAT Is IT Eerc'rED 'ro Accompnrsn?
This is even more diflicultly to satisfacto-
rily solve than aught else about the assem-
blage. That it is hoped to defeat Republican
Congressmen and elect democrats by a union
of all anti-radical elements, was fully conce-
ded and publicly stated in conversations
among the members. But can the people be
deceived. Vallandigham and Wood iwere
upon urgent pressure induced to decline ta.
king part in the Convention. But rebel offi-
cers'and soldiers were there and very active
too. A sheet was thrown over the heads of
these most obnoxious ,delegates, but they still
are in the same bed and as solicitous as An-
drew Johnson himself about the workings of
the new “policy.” '
If a full restoration of the rebellious states
is the honest purpose of these men, can they
hope the PEOPLE, who have given their blood
and treasure to conquer rebels, will be satis-
fied with any less stringent conditions than
those required by Congress ‘1’ When men
who defied the usages of honorable warfare,
bayonetted our captives in their hands, deli?»
srately starved and froze them for months
and committed every every other barbarity
the most attrocious savages were ever known
to commit, when such men seek to come
back into full power and authority again, will
not a peOple which liasendui'ed so much,
standjustified before the enlightened judg-
ment of the world, when it requires as n. pen~
preliminary condition to their forgiveness
and restoration that they execute a bond for-
ever foregoing the possibility of a repetition
of such a carnival of butcliery and horrors.
Henry J. Raymond may write and read
his platitudes as to what would be “llllllllllzt
ting" and “unworthy" for these men to do,
but a people that will not guard against the
repetition of another such rebellion, when
they have the-power, certainly deserve not
to have it. We shall see.

Journalistic Enterprise: .
We have a keen relish for enterprise wherever we
find it, and very naturally journalistic enterprise of.
fords us a greater delight than in any other depart-’
ment. We have long known the New Your; TRIB-
UN]! to be invariably ahead in all that pertains to
newspaper energy and enterprise. In short, what- .
ever opinions may prevail as to its political tenets,as
a newspaper we believe it to be systematically
ahead of all rivals either in America or Europe. Du-
ring the war it repeatedly furnished the government
its first information Of battles fought, and the pub-
lic also 'their first news of most important army
movements. At Gettysburg its correspondents gave
the public details of the first days terrifiic struggle
six hours before any other, journal, and to 'the. gov-
ernment twelve hours in advance Of its official cour-
iers . At Mine Run comedy, Francis 0. Long, of
Wilton. then a Tribune messenger, got through
with the particulars of that fiasco two days in ad
vance of all other sources. At the later battle Of the
Wilderness, Henry E. Wing of Norwalk, brought
through full particulars of the first and principal
day's fight, which were furnished the War Depart-
ment on Friday night, and published in the Tribune
on Saturday morning, while no other journal
throughout the country had a word until the follow-
ing Monday. The Tribune was equally ahead in
the results of the Cavalry raids by Duhlgreen and
Kilpatrick, and of Sheriden about Richmond.
Despite this record, which is now historical, we
think every reader of the Tribune will admit that
since its managing Editorship has passed into the
hands of James Russell Young, in matters of gen-
eral intelligence, the Tribune has vastly improved.
The opportunities do not now occur to make those
startling triumphs over other journals, yet its genu-
ine and systematic enterprise is all the more appa-
rent to every intelligent reader. The Tribune was
the first and only journal to publisha special dis-
patch sent through the Atlantic Cable, despite the
clumsy hypocrisy of the Herald. .
A fresher evidence of laborious enterprise is ex-
hibited in the Tribune‘s reports of the Philadelphia
Convention. On Tuesday morning it appeared
with an entire page devoted to brief personal and po-'
litical portraitures of every delegate chosen from all
the states. During the progress of the Convention,
the Tribune had from four to seven columns of tele
I graphed reports—one day a column more than the
Herald, Times, World and News combined-and
daily, from three to five columns more matter than
any one of the local Philadelphia journals; and this
at acost in tclcgraphing and for correspondents of
not less than one thousand dollars per day! How
few readers realize the enormous aggregate cost, in
cash and labor, at which their Tribune is served
them each morning.

with children and adults, attributed to other causes ‘
is occasioned by worms. The “VBRMIFUGE Con-
FITS,” althouglicfl'cctuitl ill destroying worms. can
do no possible injury to the most delicate child. 3
This valuable combination has been successfully ‘
used by physicians, and found to be safe and sure in i
eradicating worms, so hurtful to children.

tention, as neglect Of the trouble often causes pro-
longed sickness. ,
Smrrorrs on Worms IN CHILDREN are Often over-
looked. Worms in the stomach and bowels cause
irritation,which can be rcmoved only by the use of
a sure remedy. The combination of ingredients
used in making Brown’s “ Vermifuge Com/its” is
such as to give the best possible effect with safety.

Take Time by the Forelock.
The miasma which generates epidemic fevers is
now rising in clouds under the blazing beams Of
the dog-day sun. Every living body, as well as
refuse animal and vegetable matter. emits uriWholc
some vapors. and in crowded cities and the dense
assemblages which business and plcusure call to-
gether the elements of disease are evolved. The
pressure upon every vital organ is never so great as
in the second and third months of summer, and
common sense teaches us that. these Orflans require
to be reinforced to meet it.
We hold our life, so to speak, on n. repairing lease
nnv this is the season when the process of dilapi-
dation is most' rapid and rcpai rs are most ,requircd.
Therefore build up. prop and sustain. the powers of
nature with that mighty vegetablc recuperont,
HOSTETTER’S BITTERS. He who takesit may
be said to clothe himself in sanitary mail, against
which cpidcmic disease will hurl its poisoned shasts
in vain. This is no gratuitous nsssertion, but a
great medlcal fact attested by twelve years' expe-
rience in every climate of the habitable globe. Ex-
tremes of temperature always disturb the functions
of the stomach, the bowels, and the skin. It is
through these that the most dangerous maladies
assnil us. Tone them in advance with HOSTET-
TERS BITTERS, and defy heat and malaria. . 3-2
