WEDNESDAY JULY 4, 1866. No Paper To-MoRRow.?In order to enable our employes to have a holiday, we shall issue no paper from this office tomorrow. The Proposed National Union Convention. There is some difference of opinion among the editors of the Virginia papers as to the propriety of sending delegates from the Confederate States to the National Union Convention in Philadelphia. We have expressed a wish to see the South represented in the Philadelphia Convention. We desired to see the Radical party rebuked by the convocation and assemblage of a council of wise men from every State in the Union. To refuse to send delegates would be to strip the Convention of its national character, and make it a by-word among the enemies of our people. Indeed, we can imagine no good object that could he accomplished by a convention of men from only the same States which are already represented in Congress. It would be merely a counterpart of Thad. Stevens's Congress, and would not present that contrast which should he brought prominently before the eyes of the people. The spectacle of a large body of statesmen coming from every part ot the Union,and representing the interests of the southern as well as of the northern division, must exercise a wonderful influence in removing the veil of prejudice which now obstructs the vision of the people of the latter section. Objection has been made to the terms of the call. The language assumes that the Union is indissoluble for any cause, and that the uationai laws are of perpetual and binding obligation. We like this sort oi l doctrine as little as* any other paper or j jK'rson: and we have no more idea now than we had before the war that the 1 trainers of the Constitution intended to ' establish a consolidated, national govern. J incut. But what they did not do, the war | A'W done : and, whether we like or dislike ? the fact, it is none the less true that this is now, to all intents and purposes, a eon- I solidated nation, with a central head of 1 unlimited powers?unlimited, we say, be- , cause constitutional limitations are not ? worth the paper upon which thev arc written. It is impossible that it can be otherwise ; for either the States must themselves judge of the "modeand measure of rcdrc#* ' for violations of tho Constitu- \ lion?which light involves that of soces- . -ion?or else the Federal Government is t the sole judge, and, being the judge, will ' ot course never decide its ovvii acts to he ' unconstitutional, or its own usurpations to ' be anything more than the legitimate ex- J ercisc of powers conferred by the Constitution. Now, we all know that t'-e * ! o.-uuv cntldren practicing ? .UVHUtU "? ?-* I ? I vocal exercises and exultant^w,\t/?jAe of the "loiTt'ieiTiStates constitute a large majority of the population of the United Slates. We also know that even the Democrats in those States, with an exception here and there, deny the light of secession ; and that the strong arm of military power has decided that there is no such right left to any State. What then shall we wait for as a condition precedent to a union between ourselves and the conservatives of the North ? Shall we demand an acknowledgment of the right of secession ? Why, this would be the 44 very error of the moon." No one will pretend to sty that we can reasonably expect a dead issue to be thus > revivified. ' And if wo cannot, and ought not to, demand this concession, what other condition precedent, less than this, would mean anything? Shall we ask the conservatives to declare that the Federal Government is one of limited power ? Why, the northern Democrats did that in County Conventions, and State Conventions, and National Conventions, for years and years before the commencement of the late war, and yet when the time of trial came they all went over to the con--olidatiouists, ami with money and men md speeches and votes, and in all manner of ways, swallowed all their fine words, au<l declared by their acts that the powers of the Federal Government are unlimited. And so it would l?e again, whatever their previous professions might have been. There is no middle ground possible between consolidation ami the right of secession : and it is idle to seek such a foundation for our politiea! future fabrics. For, we repeat, if the Stutescannot rightfully secede, they are helpless. They cannot defend themselves within the Union when they are in. a minority; and when they are not in n minority they of course have nothing to complain of, since minorities

> I >?i ss no :a>\ s. If, then, there are no conditions precedent >vhich wo can reasonably require at the hand* ol' the northern Conservatives before entering into party relations with them?none, we Aean, which can possibly have auy value in protecting us iu the fu-ture?-why should we not make the best ol .1 bad bargain, and unite with the opponents of Radicalism in their efforts to put down the pestilent faction which now bangs like an incubus upon the nation? Shall wc prate about dead abstractions? Shidl we waste our breath advocating the i ights of the States, when wc know that we thereby merely play into the hands of our cncuiics ? The mere proclamation of sound Statesi ights doctrines by men who set no high ? stiuiaic upon them, and who either do not understand them or arc too selfish to stand 1 by them in their time of trial, cannot be an object upon which the South should insist. We realty, in the fullest sense that this is a consolidated empire. There is uo sort of reason at present for hoping that we shall ever see it restored to its original character. Perhaps it would be well for ua to teach the same lease u to New England. Those six States have twelve Seua. tors representing a smaller constituency than do the two New York Senators. They were accorded to them as a protection from J'ederal oppression, and as an evidence und a guarantee that the Federal Government was to be but the agent of sovereign States, whose equality in rights and dignity was thus set up as a beaeou-light to warn our statesmen front the perils of centralization. Cmanlt rutioiu, c>ss<*t iptrn ft (w. The reason having ceased, the law should cease also. The six New England States should have at the outside uo more than six Sena. '??rs. Vow York should have six?and the

If the Statea, as kef England teaches, stand in the nmc relation to tlu Federal Government as counties do to tlu State Governments, then rcprescnta tives in Congress should be ap|>ortioncd to the States as in the States they are apportioned to the counties?namely, according to population. A little practi. cat consolidation of this sort would improve the Yankees more than the soundest fxilitical platform, however glittering it? generalities. The Radicals arc said to be greatly alarmed at the proapect of a truly National Convention. They denounce its orlgi. uators and its objects in unmeasured terms. Tlds is a good sign, and seems to indicate that the South ought to respond to the call. The Charleston AVir? calls upon South Carolina to Ik? the first State to appoint delegates, as she was the first to secede from the Uniou. Jt strongly approves ot the movement. The Memphis Awrianehe, the most intensely southern of journals, announces the call as follow s: " At Last ! At Last ! Light is beaming once more?light from the rising sun of liberty! The people?the people of (ill the States?north, south, east, and west, are soon to he heard in an old-fashioned pro. pit's eom tnUon. The people are now about moving, and the idea will become iin nicnscly popular. Well, we can but rejoice at it. Thank Heaven, the people nrr moving. We have anxiously waited for this "moving of the deep,*'and it has come at last. Now, let all row together for a common end as a common good." The Democratic members of Cougress have drawu up and igned an address fully endorsing the Convention, and urging Democrats all over the country to elect delegales who may take part in the proceedings. The New York Titiits says: " Union Democrats as well as Union Republican* may meet upon the terms profited. We are disposed to look upon this circumstance as evidence at once of the desirableness of such a meeting, and uf the liberal spirit in which the movement has originated. In the present position of the country, it were neither pritlent nor seemly to quarrel about names. The great need of the time is a national, patriotic, constitutional union party; and to construct this ire arc prepuml to /vrc/n netiohol Mholdh.s nuil lo bury the prejudices that would keej) Union men asnnler." The Radical Ti'ib'i,?c of the same city says: "Our advices from Washington import j that a Democratic pronunaamentu is soon i to he issued foreshadowing the coming t 'fusion,' and giving at least the wink to all the semi-rebels and negro-haters to help the bolters to the utmost, with a plain ' view of ultimate amalgamation. Messrs. [Jutbrie, of Kentucky, and Niblnck, of In-} liana, lead this movement; but it is cx- [ ?eetcd to take in the entire Sham Dcnto?racy." We have written so much rath*" | -how that i" < '??<???

IRON AND BR^JPTTVof the j, Convention, as we understand them, we 11 wore doing ouly what has been done by a ' large majority of the editors of southern ' journals. \\ o are by no means anxious to ' see our views adopted. Above all things, we deprecate division among our own people. Jt the Convention is to be an ironclad alfair, "we'll none of it." And that there are two opinions upon this point we are bound to confess. It seems that even the rerritotalizers in this city have had an idea of appointing delegates, as we learn from the Richmond correspondent of the New York Times, who writes as follows : "The call for the National Union Convention to meet at Philadelphia out he 14th of August, and tho consequent intended act ion of the secession Democracy of Yir-1 gjnia, have brought a crisis upon our , I nionists, and 1 am naturally not a little I curious, and much more anxious, to see how it will be met. The call was only published in lull in the Richmond papers for ' the first time this morning, and yet the!, Uispukh and LVanwie*' accompanied it j with such editorial comments as inculcated : the belief that the Convention, like a scrub I j race, is open for all comers. Both these ' | papers call upon Virginia to send her best J men to the Convention, and their idea of . Virginia's best men can be filled only by | j Lee <t at. These developments make it 11 entirely plain that Virginia Democracy in- J, tends to send a set of delegates of their !! own to the Convention, to the utter igno- I ring of the Union element of the State. It 1 can safely be asserted that John B. Baldwin and A. II. II. Stuart, the most turbulent, vindictive, an! intolerant of their present leaders, will be of the number, and it is equally certain that no such men as Barbour and Chandler will be sent. "Of course if our Unionists go to work | and elect a delegation of true men, these , bogus delegates will not be admitted to the i Convention, and this adroit and unscrupulous move on the part of our Democracy i will be foiled. But will our Unionists do j anything of the sort ? Judging from their past achievements and recent expressions, they arc in danger of allowing this last outrage upon them to pass unchallenged, and simply for want of a little energy and a little cohesion. It is well, however, to j lemaik that efforts have already been inaugurateil to wake up the Unionists in the 1 various sections of the State to tho vast I importance of the crisis that is now upon 1 them, and it is within the range of the possible that tbc I uiouistsmay send delegates based upon a very respectable popular vote. If this extremely desirable event shall happen, I shall hasten to give the information to the public, in order that the status of the two delegations that will in that event apply for admission to the Con-! .?iition inay bo fully understood." i What sort of a programme would these ; " Unionists lay down t And how do our people liko the idea of being represented 1 in a National Conservative Convention by j the men who held the recent Alexandria Convention ? And is it not certain that if we do not send delegates, they will ? And will uot their presence do us incalculable injury ? j 'Forney is Ft Riots.?The Ciwo aide of yesterday contains a long epistle addressed to the President, and sigucd by Jou.v "W. j Forney, in which tho latter attempts to' explain away tho Jetter published by Mr.' ?

Grattax, Esq, From the Memphis Bulletin, June M. > I Frlahirnl Tragedy In Arhanttas-Da-i. ring Robbery nod Murder?five Men Shot Down In Cold Illood?A Plantation l?eva*late<l. Information has just reached Memphis of a dreadful tragedy which was enacted ' on the Tecumseh plantation, Mfhted in '! Chico county, Arkansas, a few nights ago, which resulted in the death of five men, ' who were shot down in cold blood by a : band of marauders. The plantation is i situated on the Mississippi about seven | miles nltove Grand I.ake, and is owned by Mr. E. P. Johnson, and is fanned by llrii gadier-Gcneral Adams, formerly of the 1 Eighty.first Ohio Infantry, and Messrs. Van Pelt and Jenks, under the firm of Adams, 1 Van Pelt & Co. About 1 o'clock on the j morning of Tuesday week, while the rain 1 was descending in torrents, and when General Adams, Captain Johnson, Captain Van Pelt, and Captain Jenks, the ? owners, were asleep in a small dwelling on the plantation, the door sud- ' donly opened, and four stalwart men, ! with blackened faces and otherwise i disguised, rushed into the room, seized j the sleeping men as they lay in their beds, and, with pistols pointed at their heads, I demanded their money. The inmates of the house w ere powerless in the grasp of ! thc.se night marauders, for in an instant ' they had secured the pistols of their victims, which had been placed under their j pillows. Threats of instant death were made if any resistance was offered, and General Adams was compelled to rise from J his bed and point out the trunk in which : the money belonging; to the firm was do- : posited. In an instant the trunk was forced i open and three thousand dollars secured by the robbers. This, however, did not seem to satisfy them, us they immediately afterwards rifled the pockets of the gentleman above referred to, and took away whatever valuables they could lay their hands on. After making various threats in case they were interfered with, two left the cabin, the others remaining to prevent the owners of the plantation from quitting the cabin. Meanwhile a dreadful tragedy had been enacted at the quarters of the men, situated a short distance from the dwelling occupied by the owners. Another party ot the marauders, in the darkness of the night and in the midst of the storm of wind and rain, had made an attack on the quarters. Entering the stable in which the stock hud | been placed for shelter, they in the most | wanton manner commenced killing the poor animals by Corittd' iice to | their pist"K' " . _ rtl them with I

rnce, r*r ?>r i ?- t . .. .r . rdnrn e?ci??vj. l he Bring had the effect ol Housing the laborers on the plantation, nany of whom were old soldiers, who jiiickly armed themselves with muskets, j revolvers, and whatever arms they could j ay their hands on. The majority of them ; lid not take time to dress, but sallied out;; :iot knowing the meaning of the attack. As they were marching towards the stable, ! the marauders tired a volley, killing five ol ! the laborers and wounding nine. The 1 ?thers who had escaped, ten in number, j returned the tire, but in the darkness ol the night it was impossible to ascertain ' whether any of the marauders were killed ! >r wounded. Overpowered by numbers, the laborers retreated to their quarters. The uiarau- [ ilers, bent on destruction, then set the dable 011 fire, and the engine and cotton iin were completely destroyed. Having L-oiupleted their work of destruction, the marauders assembled their forces and left the place. When morning at length broke, the bo- ! lies of the five men who were killed were \ found lying about twenty yards from the | burnt stable, and arrangements were made j for their decent interment. As they had only arrived at the plantation a couple of days before from Cineinlati, our informant, Captain Jenks, could ! lot give their names. Alter the burial ol j heir comrades, the owners of the planta- i ion, accompanied by several of their hands, j ollowed the track of their assailants for j i considerable distance, and from the ! racks made in the mud it was computed ; hat the band was composed of thirty men t it least. The traces of blood were to be j <een all along the road which they tra- j relied, and it was quite evident that one I >r more had been woniuled by the volley j which the laborers fired in self-defence, j A consultation then took place, and as it , was considered that they would be unable to cope with the murderers even if they came up with them, the chase was given up. Fearful of a second attack when night came on, the men resolved to separate and make their way to the nearest canebrake for security, trusting they would be able to hail a steamer passing up the Mississippi. Captain Jcnks went out towards u small ; island in the river Ibr the purpose of wait-' ing the arrival of a steamer, but the watch ! was a long and weary one, and lie was almost famished for wuut of subsistence. le procured materials and lighted a lire, * " * i . it. i:_L* i.? ! ml a fawn being attracted by the light, he ucceedcd in killing it with a club, aud fter skinning the animal he roasted a ?ortion of it on the coals. This was' lis only subsistence for three long days ; ud nights. On the third day a steamer 1 iovc in sight, and although unable to make hose ou board observe the signals made, tc witnessed the embarkation of several of lis late comrades from the main land, a onsideiable distance above the island in | vhich he had taken up his quarters. As ; he water was beginning to rise, lie pro- ; Hired a log and floated towards the main aud, which he reached in safety. After vandering for a couple of days in the caneirake, getting a precarious subsistence by Ishing, ho met Messrs. Johnson and Van *elt, and tliev continued together for half i clay, wheu they resolved to separate, and Captain Jenks was again thrown on his ?wn resources. He was fortunate enough n securing several partridges and a few ish, and on these he lived till last Wedicsday, when he observed a steamer coning up the river. lie quickly made arangements for hailing her, and soon had he satisfaction of seeing that his signals vero observed. The steamer proved to be he Liberty No. 2, and he was soon on ?oard, and through tho kindness of the ifflcers he procured a passage to Memphis, There ho arrived at a late hour on Thurslay night. Captain Jenks lias several riends and acquaintances in this city. He :an give no reuson for the midnight attack >n the plantation except robbery and murler ou the part of the marauders.
