A. Sargent, Esq., who spoke as follows = -. Gentlemen of the Convention : It givew me sure to witness so generala response to the call for this Conventiou notwithstanding the inclemency. of the weather. As members of this body you have important duties to perform: upon the sigs performance of which may depend the suceese of correct principles, aud the defeat of that cliss of men who cry union while at heart disunionists, whose sympathies and purposes are antago__histic to the government, thinly concealed by catchwords about compromise und peaceful solution of the national difficulties. These are the men Wha ery ** peace, , when _ there is no. peace.” In the tena of Henry; they would have the Gerernment “lie supinely upon its back while its enemies are binding it hand and foot.” When insult after insult is heaped upon the Government, its treasures rifled, its forts as-sailed, its brave soldiera sltin, when vast urmies are assembled to annihilate the Gevernment and overthrow the hopes of humanity ‘forever, a political party rears its head in this loyal State, to. carp, at all measures of defense, to question our right to dash the haud of the robber and murderer from the _ national throat, to counsel ignominieus sub: uiission to traitors by ucceeding to their demands for a dismemberment of the national territory or a yielling up to armed enemies the dictation of the terms of peace. All this they would do under the preteace of‘ Union.’ The Union’ they woula have would be as much worse than the deapotism of Austria as many tyrants are werse than one. They are tories, hanging on the skirts of the patriot army. apparently swelling the mass) but reallyweakening its efforts. Their counsels are ag.false as their hearts. In the south they WOuld be secessionistsin name and fact, here they are such only in fret. They are as much mere dangerous as a concealed is than an open foe. These men are our only real ” avtagonists in this State, and let not their . .C numerical strength be undervalued. I am firmly convineed, by the signs of the times that the next officers jof this State will be either Republican or Secession. The efforts now being made to erect a third “ Union party” in this State must tend to distract and divide the Union vote, and I firmly beheve that such is its object. I do honor to the motives of some few of the men who have been entrapped into the support of that movement, but from its inevitable results, and the fact that_ite chief promoters are wen"whe have hitherto relentlessly persecuted Republicans, and bivterly"denounced the men now constituting the government, I.can but believ8 that the patent. fact, that the Repadlican party was tast growing from a plurality to a majority party in this State, and that it was destined thix Fall to sweep the State, has led to this effort to call off votes from this teue Union party, and paralyze us at the polis. Such efforts are in the interest ofthe Breekinridge' Democratic party, «nd designed to be so; for the more the Union vote is scattered, the better fchance for the concentrated secé=sionists. Such tactics are not new in our political history, and we have lived our political lives in vain if we can not yet see through such maneuvers. I do not look ‘upon the masses of the Douglas party as political enemies. They are with us in sentiment, and are divided from us but by name. Many of them have joined our ranks since the last election, and many are LOW coming over. Many more will do so ; Jt we.atand firm to our organization, and convince them that we are able, with their help, to beat ‘the Secessioniets. We wel‘ come all such, and I recommend that they have their fair share of the honors aud. rewards of victory, as well as the toils of coufict, I sincerely desire an union of all true men in support of the Government party, irrespective of opinions upon past issues. What party has prouder claims to the name of Union purty thon the Republican party ? Say a man is a Republican, let him be from ‘Worth or South, and you at once proclaim him to be for the Union. As much can be said for the members of no other party. Even now it is declared by politicians that a “holy alliance,” based upon spoils, and designed tu defeat the true Union men of this county; whether Republicans or Douglas, has been formed between Douglas leaders rnd leaders of the Secession Democracy. But tas people will smite down any such is, Whoever creates them. They are determived that no Secessionist. or Uniot man with av.“ if” shall be elected in this county. Gentlemen, I trust this Convention will Place upow record its adbesion tu the Goverament, and the principl-s of American Constitutions! liberty. I turther trust you Will deb-g te youkbeat men to Sacrameuto, where the ienporteut duty is to be performed of selecting the next officers of this State. We ar: divided by no quarrel tor spvuils, or xed by bie candidates, caring more siicviviueement then the good of the ry.
