We regret to say to our readers this morning that just at a time when all are anxious to hear from the great Union Convention at Philadelphia, our dispatches are very meager. The, telegraph line was down last night, and we are without any late dispatches. No definite action, however, was had yesterday. The indications for harmonious action to-day are very de-ided-The First Gun. It will be seen by our dispatches that Vermont sends her greeting to Andrew Johnson and all rebels in tones not to be misunderstood. The election shows Republican gains over the last election, when there was perfect harmony in the party. Now, with the desertion of the President, ehe rolls up a greater majority still. And so it will be all over the North. The people will vindicate their loyalty at the ballot-box. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher has been admitted into full fellowship with the Johnsonites, since his late letter indorsing the policy of the President. We hope we may hear no more from our neighbor, or the rest of the organs of that party, about political preachers. North Carolina The rebels of North Carolina have refused by a majority of two thousand votes, to ratify the Constitution framed by the recent Convention of that State. This is a correct indication of the manner in which the whole of the rebel States would vote were the Constitutions submitted to the people. PERSONAL. The Courier of yesterday copies an article frOm the Henderson, (Kentucky,) Newt, attacking one of the proprietors of this paper. When we remind our readers that the editor of that paper is a convict from the Nashville Penitentiary, they will exeuse us from a further notice of the article. The shot we fired at the bogus soldier's Convention appears to have struck some where. It evidently hit Whittlesey in a tender place. Others may have taken offense, where it was entirely unnecessary. There are many brave soldiers on tha Call, and we expressly so stated in our article. We did not arraign them. We would not tarnish their fair fame.f We could only regret that they could lend themselves to any sueh movement, when the great mass of their companions in inns sjtood aloof from and scorned it.

THE EVAtfSVILLE DAILY JOURNAL, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER G. 1866.

A. T. Whittlesey. In an article which appeared in the Journal of the 4th inBt., headed The Bogus Soldiers' Convention," the following language was used: Our people were taken somewhat by surprise by the appearance on Sunday morning ol a Call for a Soldier's Convention to appoint delegates to the Cleveland meeting of Johnsonites soon to be held. But when the names of the signers of the call were examined the surprtoe was changed Into laughter and derision. As briefly as possible we desire to notice some of the marked features of the Call. The only person we have beard of as having circulated It is A. T. Whittlesey, whose political history is so well known in thlB community, it would be unnecessary to refer to it, except for the Information of our readers abroad. He is the leader ot a small-fry brood of politicians of the late Democratic party of this city. He never was in the army, and never wis known to do anything to encourage the soldiers in the field ; but, on the coritTary, was during the four years contest the most loud-mouthed opponent of the war and the policy of the Government In this country. He it is who conceives tlie movement and circulates the Call. He Is an applicant for the Postoffice of this city, and is anxious to do what he can to merit the appointment. In reply to the above. Mr, A. T. Whittlesey published a Card in yesterday's Courier from which we make the following cWce extracts : " I wish to brand the writer of the above as an infernal liar. " I never saw the call for a soldiers' meeting, alluded to above, till I saw It W print, in the columns of the Courier. The man who says I circulated the call or had auythingtodowithit oreverwas consulted about it, directly or iudirectly, states a villainous falsehood and dare not make the statement to my face. "The assertion that I was 'during the late four years' contest the most loudmouthed opponent of the war,' is a dam-, nable lie. On the contrary, I was a supporter of the war, and, though never in the war myself, I assisted to uphold the cause of our country, using my limited means, and what little talent I possessed, to sustain my country at all times and under all circumstances." "A short horse is soon curried." In reply to Mr. Whittlesey's statement, that "he never saw the call al luded to, or had anything to do with it, directly or indirectly," we present the following certificate: This Is to certify that on or about the 30th day of August, 1866, Messrs. A. T. Whittlesey, George Hill and the Local Editor of the Cwirier, called at the Edge Tool Factory where I was at work, and presented the call for a Soldiers' meet'ng at Mozart Hall, which was afterwards published in the Courier, and it was signed by one of the men hi tbe shop. Daring the conversation that ensued, Mr. Whittlesey said to me: "You had better sign the paper; the Johnson men are yonr best friends." I indignantly responded that " he was a liar, and that Johnson was a traitor." Other words passed, when he left me without securing my signature. C. L. Scott, Late Capt. Co. F, 143d Ind. VoL Inf. Evansville, Sept. 5th, 1866. I certify that A. T. Whittlesey, George Hill, and another gentleman, with whom I was unacquainted, passed my place of business, on the opposite side of the street, on or about the date above given, and went directly to the Edge Tool Factory of J. C. 4 J. G. Smith, where they engaged in a conversation with the employees, the purport of which I did not bear. John F. Glovkk. Evassville, Sept. Sth, 1866 At the time we made our statement, Mr. Whittlesey was the only individual we heard mentioned in connection with the Call. It seems, however, that others were engaged in circulating it, of whom we had not previously heard, one of whom is not a resident of this city. As to Mr. Whittlesey s war" record, or his record as Clerk of the Indiana State Senate, it is not necessary to enlarge upon now. His war record, including his effort to deride and depreciate greenbacks is well known to our people. His record as clerk is not so well understood and may require ventilation at some more convenient season. We feel sorry for poor Whit. His impetuosity certainly got the better both of his discretion and judgment when he rushed in to print in yesterday's Courier, or his memory is uo longer reliable, and should not be depended on. Short of Speakers. It appears there was some indignation expressed at the Reconst ruction -ist s meeting on Tuesday night, because the Journal published a fact which had appeared in a dozen papers in Ohio and Indiana that Voorhees was dangerously sick. A gentleman, who left Terre. Haute, this week, made the same statement in this cityIf Voorhees is at the meeting on Saturday, he will have very rapidly recovered. It has already been announced that two of their " big guns," Hendricks and Rousseau cannot be here. It is only claimed iu the posters that KoWNSON, of Illinois, and General Mansos "are earpected." We see by he, Ivockport Democrat that Judge Nfctr 4CK is advertised for a speech Friday .-, tiie upper end of Spencer county, adj.;ning Dubois. So they only have one it 0f those announced, Judge Pitcher atuBe nas not been

long enough in the party for them to

have claims on him. It is possible they may induce Ben. Cissill to come over from Kentucky to supply a vacancy. The Cotton Crop. One of the leading topics of discussion among commercial men is the cotton crop, now about to be gathered in the Southern States. It assumes just now more importance than any other, for the reason that upon it depends the trade from the South the coming Fall and Winter, in which our merchants, as well as those of all other commercial cities of the country, have an interest. It and tobacco are now our chief articles of export, and these are the leading products with which wehope to lesson the drain of gold from the country which is constantly going on. The picking of the cotton crop is now being actively carried on in all the cotton States, and by the expiration of the present month the great bulk of it will be gathered. There is much difference of opinion as to the amount of the yield, as the reports are very conflicting, and different regions of country have been variously affected by injurious causes. We think the reports of damage are much exaggerated, us is usual with all growing crops, but in many places the plants hate been much injured. The quantity that came out last year after the close of the rebellion was greatly beyond the estimates that had been made of the quantity then in the Southern States, but whether there will be an agreeable disappointment of the same kind this year there are no means whatever of judging. But it is certain that there is no back stock of any consequence in the South, nearly all that was left by the rebellion having alreadly been brought out, and the entire amount on hand at the close of the season will be such as has been raised during the current year. We shall look forward with interest for the Southern cotton reports of the next few weeks. The President's Visit to Indianapolis. The Copperheads of Indianapolis have taken the reception of the President out of the hands of the City and State officials, and propose to manage it themselves. If the President, as announced, is making his grand tour in an official capacity, why should these partisans be so forward to forestall the action of the City and State officials? We find in the Herald the action of the Democratic State Central Committee, in appointing delegates from each Congressional District to receive His Excellency. Our fellow-citizen, Richard Raleigh, is appointed to represent the Democracy of the First District. The Indianapolis Journal is disposed to find fault with this action, but we think it eminently appropriate. The President conceived the tour he is making for purely political purposes, and at every place where he has made a speech of any length, he has taken special pains to laud his Policy in opposition to the course of Congress, and even has so Jar forgotten the dignity of his office as to apply the term traitors to the leaders of the Republican Union party. Wherever a loyal Mayor or Governor has met him, as the representative of the people, he has not omitted in some wayto insult them or tbe party to which they belong. His excursion is nothing more than a stumping canvass in the interest of the Copperhead party, and we think it entirely proper that the men of that party should bear the burdens and reap the honors of his receptions. Davis and the Philadelphia Convention. A correspondent to the Alexandria (Va.) Gazette has had an interview with Jeff. Davis, and intorrus the public that " the illustrious prisoner " fully indorses the CoucH-and-ORR Convention recently held in Philadelphia. Davis even goes so far as to pray that good may result from its action. This is certainly gratifying to his friends and the members of that body. To be endorsed by Davis ought to be sufficient, and it probably is. Is tbe arch -traitor on the stool of repentance? or does he consider that the Convention is desirous of carrying out his policy? The Bugle Call Sounded. We ftnd the following in the Courier's notice of the soldiers' meeting, gotten up under Whittlesey's auspices: Turn out, soldiers, and show the enemies ot an undivided Union that you are awake and will vote for what you shot a restoration of the Union. Let us show who are the bounty -jumpers, draft-sneaks, Ac. We have heard enough of this slang. Let us put ah end to it by turning out en masse.

Bounties to Soldiers.

The Chicago Evening Journal, of the 21st Inst., contains a letter from Hon. John Wentworth, in reference to the soldiers' bounty bill, in which he advises the soldiers to keep their papers in their own hands, and says : "I am not without hope that the Senate earlv in December, will take u p uie oiu passed dv assed bv the House for the equalization or bounties. This was the bill the soldiers asked for. It was a bill to give those wno entered the service upon the first call, from patriotic motives merely, tne same Doumy as those who entered at a later day. That bill gave eight dollars and a third per month, which was $300 to the three years' men, whereas the present gives but $100 to them, and but $50 to the two years' men." One half the time taken up in passing the bill which enables members of Congress to take from the Treasury, without warrant of justice, tbe $2,000 additional pay they voted themselves would have been more than sufficient to pass the bill which Mr. Wentworth thinks can be done at the next session. Cincinnati Union. Here is another Johnson organ abusing our Congressman, Mr. Niblack. It is too bad that he should be thus treated by his own friends. It will be remembered that Niblack boasted about his efforts to secure the passage of the Bounty Bill, and lamented the great iujury to his conscience in being compelled to take the $2,000 increased pay. And now we have one of his own party organs charging him with taking 12 : 000 -from the Treasury "without warrant of justice," and saying that the soldiers would have had a good Bounty Bill (the one passed by the House Schenk's) if he had given it half as much time and attention as he did the bill for his own pay. We have already proven that it was Schenk's bill jWhich Niblack allowed to be struck oft" the appropriation bill, and substituted one very meager in its provisions, which the Indianapolis Herald says was only intended as " a bait to catch votes. " We hardly think it will help Niblack much with the soldiers. Periodicals. The London Quarterly Review, for July, has been sent to us.
