We have not seen a single Southern journal which ?MOMr^ir pt><4nr>*'9 the Dlatfornl udop UUKOVHWi ^ ^ ted by the cod vebtion. The Richmond papers condemn the Cowan resolves wit a a spirit and tone of unanimity be?t show n, npon the whole, in the following from the Despatch: In so far us.the address assumes ftat the people of the Souih ure responsible lor thefwart that the wur was a rebellion; tnat they are disposed to acknowledge cuipabili y and contrition; that the Federal government actdd in sell-defense, and under jbe Constitution, d.c , it assumes what the people of the Sooth do not ! f! to be true ami wlr^t, therefore, they .have no thought of aduiittiu;. Tinit is to say, in short, that there is nothing whatever iu the resolves to which the South can subscribe except the inevitable and incontrovertible facts that? first, the war is ended and the South beaten; 2nd, that it is impracticable, and, therefore, impossible to pay the Confede< rate debt; 3d, that the National debt must * _ ' - *. m - ? be peid, perforce; em, IDftl Oiavcrjr 15 deed, in name, beyond reca.1; otb, that Mr. Johnson's course deserves approval because he is the enemy of the Radical*. The Richmond Enqtmrr is astonished to hear the declaration of Mr. Cowan, that the-resolves were passed by a unanimous vote. It say*, we protest in the nams of our pe?ple that t..ey be considered m unanimous vote." The tern (tmintr denies more boldly that the plat' i - i-* ? Vmfinni'l ?* foma is in "wj juvd kuov >- ...? ?ue,"and regrets that the.'?ri*bt kinder delegated" were notsentto the Convention, arid " that tbe South he* once moi e been ttfl on/ tn the cd!rL*~ Th? Hi-iiniv nl T mes says that '' tbe delegate* were requested to swallow res* oiutio s that must h ive tasteda \ lensa / m a mixture of gall, senna and wormwood." The Petersburg Express says that tbe resolves were "permitted to pass by default of the bouthrn members." The Wdmtngto i Dispatch, professes its con - * ' n i tempt for t&e war i/eiuwtiuo ?w t?? the Convention, and calls Mr. Itiymond * " trimmer. " Tltt Jtick.nond Enquirei again blames the Southern delegates foi 'sanctioning the constitutionality of the _ coercion of a State." The Raleigh Progress continues-: "The most Gov. Graham and others from'this State'could dc was to protest against the introduction o. the subject" The Charlottesville Chronic'a < ironically says tb-**-Virginia is willing^ ' hob-imb with Mr. Kaudallor Mr. Browning," "to thank Northern soldiers fo? shooting her children and striking her to che pound." The News, of NewYoik declares tint the South obtained too little.iu the Convention: that it " was the . slave of expediencyand that the South, J furthermore, " should have sent' its wo men wfioso courage never wrereii. ~"Wliat doi-s it meat*?
