Rhigh'the movers of this Convention
give to that plan or policy. The dele.
gates of the South will find it - out, we
f.ear, before they are long in Philadel
phii. ' It is useless to say that upon
the Notth will rest the blie for -the

Now *e ask the Palri;t what will
be the positln of a gogtheru delegate,
tothe Convention, even supposing hib
adision ? We will refer to the 6f'

An one of the promin(nb objects of
that narfare is the poor old captive in
Fortress Monroe.

Can it charge ,us with extremism 7
We soleugly avor that when we first
road the annouhecment that a Nation
al Union Club had been organized at
Washington, and our distinguished
Governor Was made Vice-President of
it, our heart, beat with joy anld hopo
that at last we were to have light and
,peUe. .But.wheu the sequel showed
that we were only invited to endorse
and * satqton the ' dreadful charge
agauint our late President, that he is
ia traiti:'Ad .ought to be punished, we
could not yield our assent, and never
shall.
What boots' it to say "never inind
"that, let'us o into the Uonvention,
"for good 'will como out of it." To
demand of the South to do so great an
evil th4v gbad. way possibly grow out
of it, is to ack her to commit herself to
a step that may oue day,. wring her
very heart with remorse.:
With the deepest sing-ority to do all
we 9an for the maintenance of the' Con.
stitution and the Union 'threundcer, ae
cording to the demands of our oath,
we still resetva;the right."nOne 1ut ty
rants extort not to coknIlu ourselves
by our own testimony.
While therefore JEFFERSON DAVIS
lies in a fortress, let us of the South
not commit ourse'ves to any policy
which even remotely is condenm,atory
of -him. Let us await the issue of his
trial, and in the. ucQUntim%, if the
North,.or any portion of the North, or
if the Coovention which is to meet in
Philadolphia, adopt any line of policy
w1kichior any part of which, will for.
ward our interests, let us by all means
ettend'every'ssistance we can to that
degree.. We. ean dotis without coin
nitting ourselves. We have not lost
every thing. We have some self-re
spect loft.
The EDITOR of the I%tri(d knows
well our conservative viows, and tlaat
no one would sooealyt ad tcallfo
the comnplete restoration upon the Lasis
of the ' Constitution including all its.
ratified amnendlnient..
Ai'e theso, not arguments against
our going into the' Convention i-and
thoy are drawn from the recordl.
