General ZtlcClclIan's Acccntntice

I Gen. MeClcllan, in Iiis letter of aceepti mice, lias deprived the Lincoln party ot J their capital. All their efforts since Iiis nomination have been directed to prove that he was committed bv the platform to j an unconditional peace. So does not he understand it.

' - ., 1 me oj-jOMiet)i wnai nicy anege. n e append the clause: "Justice, humanity, liberty and thc public welfare demand that immediate efforts be made for a cessation of hostilities, with a view to an ultimate convention I of the .States, or other peaceable means, i to the end that at the earliest practicable moment peace may be restored on thc basis of the union of the Federal States." A Convention of thc .States is demanded, for what purpose? That at the earliest practicable moment peace may be icstored. ( )n what terms? The b isis of the Federal States. Docs a demand bv one or two litj igant -parties for a settlement upon specific terms, it rejected, commit the party making the demand to a disuiisival of hs claim?

So has he vindicated himself. So is our cause made. good. The comprehensive prescience which enabled him to realize tho magnitude of the contest, and the measures proper for its conduct was )- id'H-ranj. e had rat, not at thc feet of (amalilel. but of patriarch nnd law givers as pure and with perceptions as far reaching and accurate as those of the venerahle Hebrew. From these he drew the inspiration gunling his judgment. The national Convention saw in his correct appreciation of Democracy, aud his capacity practicably to apply its princi jles, 0110 worthy to bear its standard. He accepts thc trust, and with all the condition named, mid all the restrictions imposed ly the er 1 in nl principles of the parly, and which have hitherto so righteously guarded, under Democratic administrations, the bounds of Authority and the liberties of the e1ti7.cn.

Anotlirr Xuilosinl Convention,

Frni Wilke'a Spirit of the Times. A call is out, and is already largely signed by influential men who have always been sincere supporters of the government summoning a mass convention to meet at ! 'Cincinnati on the 2Sth of the present! month, to eondd?r the state of the conn- ' iry, aim make anew nomim;uon snouni ; l , r . i . ii such course be thought p advisable. J lie. - . . . object of that convention will be frie:nl?y ( and loyal consultation; and if it be deemed upon due deliberation, that the nomination of Mr. Lincoln ought to be adhered to, it ! will receive an acceleration and support which will render his re-election sure. If, however, it should seem to the convention under the liirht of the then late events. that Mr. Lincoln should give place to(en. Grant, the former will be expected to show patriotism sufficient to withdraw. "What will thc democracy do if they hall come into power?" say the abolitionists. Do? why dj just what the deinoc-

To settle our present troubles, we will call a convention of the States, invite thc south to participate hear v.hati she has to say for herself examine into her grievances remedy them demand thc repeal of all laws iu the north and south that are in opposition to the constitution all conic back to first principles ;n the government, start the thing anew on thc old plan, just as it was before thc abclitionists got hold of it and twisted it out of shape, demand that every section of the country .shall live up to the requirements of the constitution recognize the rights of thc States. confine the general government to its plainly written powers alone. and if there shall be any traitor- j

In the ' , address issued by the Conlederate ' - gress last winter, and approved by Mr. delTcrson Davis, the following language is used, which is Miflieicnt evidence to us that thv south will meet us halfway if not more : 'Let them forbear aggressions against us and the war is at an end. If there be nuestiimx which require adjustment by negotiations, wc have erer be. -t willing and are still willing to enter into communication with our adversaries in a .spirit of peace, of equality and of manly frankness. Strong in the persuasion of the justness of our cause, i i the manly devotion of our citizen s ddiers, and of theVhole body of ourneoole. and above all iu the graeious protection of Heaven, we are not afraid to, avow a sincere desire for peace on terms I consistent with our honor and the permanent security of our right-V'tiid earnest aspiration to see the world once more restored to the beneficent pursuits of industrv and of mutual intercourse and exchanges, so essential to its well being, and which have been so gravely interrupted by the persistence of this unnatural war in America." What more do you want than this? Is your way of fighting the south, to compel them to abandon slavery, denying them the rights of States, overturning thc constitution and enforcing b.ws that even the north herself won't stand without revolution,:! better way to bring b-mt peace and save the Union ' Wc think i.ot. Common sense will teach you the pr .position of thc democracy is the only one to settle our difficulties, and save us from national ruin. V. W'inne Thitc. Atlanta IHirliiff Slrse.

our life-sands shall dribble through the glass; for the government cannot keep its word if it would. Against what does it assure us? "Sorvice for three years or the war!"' Uut only for this war. A foreign trouble Would toss the remnant of our lives, en tn'tsf. into the living stream which rolls our pale race forward to extinction. If we accept the precedent of this conscription by reelecting the Administration which establishes it. we can never complain when the provost guard arrives at our doors in our turn, and marches us away to the long contention. At the pace of our proceeding all our population must soon dwindle to one class that of office holders; for none are really secure of life until they ate bound to the Executive. All our bodies are at his disposal now. All human Concerns contract to the one ijuestion of life. We stand at a fearful point in our history, when thus Death is in the service of one man, and he our Master, asking for four additional years to finish his experiment.

Thi.s matter, then, of State r;ghts is n thing f the first importance to thc people of this country. The Federal (lovcrumcnt may be said to be supreme, but it is a great mistake to suppose that it is possessed of I "ncontrohihle i.owers. powers Li dependent of and anterior to the settlement of the Colonics; and all the governmental powers porfiessed by the people of the Colonies, seems to have com2 by and through the English Government. While on thc other hand, the States are older than the General Government, anl did possess sovereign powers before the Constitution and Federal Government had an existence; and all thc powers possessed by our National Government were derived from and through the States. To make the matter plain, it should be borne iu mind, that the Declaration of independence declared that the Colonies were of right and Anight to be free and Independent States;" and hiibs2fcntly, England, iu the treaty of peace, did recognize each State, naming them sereally, to be independent States. Now the question arises, were thee Colonies, or States, possessed of sovereignty at thc time of the signing of the Treaty of Peace? The' surely were; aud it should be borne in mind that the treaty of peace took place before the adoption of our prc.-ent Constitution and I'nion. The States made the Union, and not thc Union the States. It docs seem to the writer that there i.i no fact iu history better estahl'udicd than that all the rights and powers possessed by the Federal Government were derived from and through the States.

The above was Republican doctrine iu 1 "tJ:.. but not now. The sooner the people understand thc great truth tli t the States possess original and inherent powers, which have never been delegated to the Federal Oovernment, the better it will be for them. The writer would not have the reader believe that thc States possess uncontrollable powers. J'arlromit. The State are forbidden, by the Constitution, from exercising any of those rights and owcrs which have been delegated the Federal (lovcrnment. and which are Fpwcitied iu the Constitution. Nor, on the other hand, should the national ( Jovernineut encroach on any id the risen od rights and power of States. There need be no conflict. Peace and harmony would be the result of the Federal and State governments, eael and all keeping .ithin their due and proper sphere of action. All laws passed by Congress, in pursuance of the Constitution should be respected and obeyed by the States and people and all the rights of the people and of the State should be respected and protected by Federal authority!
