The Grant Radical Convention. Never in the course of our lite have we ever seen anything so shameless and disgraceful as tho proceedings of the Radical Nominating Convention, in Columbia. Wo did not suppose that ono hundred and twenty-four men, in any civilised community, could be assembled, so utterly lost to all solf-respcct and so regardless of publio opinion, as the delegates to this convention seemed to bo. They not only charged each other with being, thioves, rogues, and swindlers, but they actually confessed that they were rogues, thieves and swindlers! Ail that they attempted to say in extenuation of their roguery and swindling, was that their accusers had stolen more than they had ! The friends of Franklin J. Moses, Jr., who received the regular nomination for Govornor of tho State of South Carolina, said that if ho did steal tho publio money whilst Speaker, he did it for tho benefit of poor negroes, who bad been run out of the State ; whilst his own accusers bad stolen millions, by issuing fraudulent bonds, to enrich themselves and their confederates. In other words, his Excellency that is to be, was only a petty rogue, stealing a half million, whilst Chamberlain hit opponent, was a magnificent thief, embezzling seven or eight millions of dollars belonging to the State! But Chamberlain's friends repliod that Moses stole only to bribo delegates to nominate him for Governor! And that he did not in any single case bestow his stealings on tho poor and unfortunate. Let it be remembered that Moses was Speaker of the House of Representatives, and Chamberlain Attorney General of tho StAtc, when all of this roguery took place! IIow low has the character of South Carolina sunk under Radical rule, and Grant's administration !! Twenty or thirty bolters, under the lend of Judge Our, left the convention after the nomination of the petty rogue, and organized a separate convention. They raid, however, that il the Democrats attempted to take advantage of the split in the Radical ranks, they would instantly unite with the thieves and rogues, and bid defiance to the white folks! Was anything ever so shameless and audacious as this threat? It showed that there was not the semblance of honesty in those who made the threat.? This bolting convention nominated Reuben Tomlinson for Governor. Julge Mackey asserted in the oonvention that Tomlinson had received a bribe of lorty thousand dollars to pass (he Phosphate Bill, besides other smaller bribes in little matters 1 We are delighted at this exposure and counter exposure on the part of General Grant's 1 friends in South Carolina. Il will show the ' Northern people who are supporting Grant ' in South Carolina. If there is an honest man in this party he ought to quit them in- ' stantly. We do not say there is not. It is 1 tc be hoped that there are some. But the ' aigne of the time* are that if all Graol's fiieudsin South Carolina are not thievei 1 nod plunderers, at least all the thieves and 1 plunderers are his fiiends and supporters, ^ as well as friends and supporters of the Radical party I 1 But It seems, after all these charges and ^ confessions, that some one in Columbia ' ought to take immediate stops to elect all these high officials who hare been making these charges and confessions, to the State Penitentiary. It is strange, passing strange, that, no one will take out a warrant and 1 have them arrested. If a poor negro steals a chicken or a pig, he is prosecuted for it. But if Mr. Speaker Moses steals five hun 8 dred thousand dollars, or Governor Soott, * Chamberlain, Parker and Neagle steal ?ev. a on millions, no prosecution is instituted '' against them When ! I ^ cned, eighty thousand dollars of the public c funds are stolen to hribe members to drop ' it. The tax-payers had better have aooth- 1 er convention and appoint another commit- P tee to bring these offenders to justice.

UHUltlkUy H follows: "An HMcit retailer of liquor, KM time ago toppod on kls plantation and waa selling It' qaor promiscuously to bis freedmen, and U pat a stop to tho same, CoL MoCullough applied to a trial justioe for a warrant to arrest tho offoudar, and to get rid of him. The warrant, however, was not formally issued, but is low of the well-established feet as to thi aforesaid offenoe having boon oaouaitosd, and of divest depredations having bean perpetsa< ted by the offender upon property of the eons, plainest, the offender begged U be let off, t? wbiob the Colonel very readily oonsented, with the understanding that sgid offcndei should leave the premises and neighborhood forthwith, which was agreed to. Before leaving, however, the said tapster voluntarily gave, by way of a sort of compromise, a ktnal! keg of liquor to a party of persons who had been watehing bis maaoeuvering while selling the liquor. Yho liquor was accepted and dealt out among the party, but with which Col. MoCullough had nothing whatever to do, his only objeot in applying for a warrant being to get rid of the nuisanoo upon his promises and the consequent doprcdations upon the property of the same. Tho unerateful tanntnr though consenting to leavo the premises, (the procoadings against him having been wltb.< drawn on those express conditions,) goes to the government authorities and made ohargos Which led to the airost referred to * * " Arrests have been of snoh frequent occurrence in our County for the past few months that they are by no means new ; and wo alludo to the instance in quostion thus in detail more to show the malignant spirit still kept up than otherwise?to show that our oppressors still ' nurse their wrath to keep it warm.' Col. McCullough is a prominent citizen of Greenville County ; had been recently urged td accept a nomination by tho Conservative or Greeley party as a candidate to represent tbe County in the next Legislature. In view of this, and the probability that ho will accept the proffered nomination, and the dread of his well-known popularity by the opposite party, it was doubtless determined to arrest him, anJ at least annoy and humiliate him, if nothing else. He had been at Greenville both Monday and Tuesday previous, when opportunity whs ample to have arrested him, but that would not have been in accordance with the satrap's progrummo. It was delayed until Colonel McCullough had quietly and unsuspectingly established himself upon the camp-ground as a tent-holder, with his friends around him, as is his annual custom ; then he is pounced upon by a Deputy Marshal, who attempts to drag him forthwith to Greenville. Tho Colonel, however, protested against leaving at tjiat particular juncture, as ho could not possibly havo reached Greenville until late Saturday night, but intimated that be would be iu attendance on Monday, to which proposition tbe gallant Deputy most graciously (?) consented, and Col. McC. remained at his temporary lodging place, while the Deputy returned to his chief, only partially successful. "To be placed under arrest was something new to the Colonel, having never before had his liberties thus circumscribed.? lis had passed through the late four year's war, nnn tun mo narrow gauntie* incident to military life in regard to arrests, unscathed in that particular ; noi had he ever before had his freedom curtailed in the least by a warrant of arre t, either civil or military ; so as a matter of course the ' little affair' would have been anything else than pleasant under more favored circumstances, but under those alluded to, it was especially annoying."

Those liquids, j bought in Charleston from merchants who im [ on mom irom ?ew xotk and oiner places, are sent beta without being gauged iu Charleston, so that the leaking or tapping between those places and Charleston, being not asoerlained by sworn gangers in Charleston, are of sourso the loss of the merohants o( Greenville ind other place* to which said liquids are shipped from Charleston.

Mr. Editor : An appeal waa made aotnt f time ago, that the young men of the State ahonld oone forward and take hold of the reint of the government We believe thia to be the proper eourse. We believe, aleo, j that the colored men bave prejudleea againat f their old maetera that they cannot have againat the youog men. We would like to assist in reforming the colored people, but we cannot do an till the old politicians give way, except now and then we may put a , little article in the press, read by perhape a j few, but never reaching the point for which it is intended. Now, I think a Tax-Payers' Convention should be promptly celled, composed of ^ m^n from every County in the State, to ooo- ^ aider our desperate situation. Wc must e not wail on the slow movements of either . Conservative. Moses, Orr, or any other facs lion. Let us meet in convention, and peli- | tion universally to the United States Gov- i ornment, through the Executive head, or ' the proper legal authorities, to stay ?11 B State proceedings, stop the whole machinery of State, until a Federal examination before the higher oourls of the United States can be made. If the convicts of the Penis tenliary are to be turned loose upon the community, nod the doors of the asylum \ thrown open, and the insane allowed to go h about in their mad condition, what is to | become of us? The above convention is the only remedy I see. Think of it. ^ O K. Trr North Carolina Election.?
