James ' Farrow, in complianov with notice previously ' given, addressed the people of this District, in < the Court House by way of a report of tho proceedings of the Philadelphia Convention. < Having previously addressed a very large assemblage of our citizens in fhvor of sending 1 delegates, Col. Farrow's remarks on Monday i last were mostly in the nature of a narrative of incidents illustrative of the spirit which animated the Convention?the earnestness of the Northern deletrnlna in ll.A An.if A -f _.T e-..vw >u ??V Vitucu VI iVOlVlilllUU ] and pacification?the gratification evinced by the Northern members at the presence of dele, gations from all tlie Southern States, and the gratification of the Southern members at the manner in which they were met And treated by the members from tho North. Col. Fauow attempted, with some warmth, to repoll tho imputation by certain palmers, that the Southern delegates had behaved obsequiously in the Convention,or in any way inconsistent with the character of Southern gentlemen j or the representatives of Southern people. lie j said no such opinion would have been enter- 1 tained by any ono who was present ?t the ' Convention and saw the elevated courtesy ( "which was universally admitted by Southern ( members to havo characterized the bearing of 1 all the members, North, South, East nud West, ( that for the Southern members to have rcpell- ' ed the proffer of civilities from Northern members would not only have been inconsistent with the character of Southern gentlemen, but would have merited the severest condemnation of the Southern people. He remarked that those points in tho "Declaration of Principles," which were considered by some as objectionable, viz: the indissoluble character of the Union, payment of the national debt, and recognition of the services of the U. S. soldiers?being duties inseparably con- j nectcd with the support of the Government, and were virtually part of the terms upon ' which wo accepted rc-orgauization and rcstora- ' tion ; that instead of these points having been surrendered in the Convention, they were aurrenderod, in fact, by the people of the South 1 when the armies oNho late Coufederaey were ' surrendered, and he said tlint upon those points ' left open by the result of tho war (such as the * right of the Southern States to representation * in Congress, and the right of every State to 1 decide for herself who should bo voters within 1 her limits) the platform of tho Convention was 1 fall, explicit, end satisfactory to tho South. lie contended, that if the United States government is henceforth to be centralized and ' consolidated, to the absorption of tho Slates, instead of there being, tn thit, any reason why ( the people of the South should cease to feci no 1 interest in national politics, it was the strong- ' est possible reason why, since we nro to continue part and parcel of the United States, we ' should seek, by all reasonable means, to cooperate with aud strengthen the hands of that ' party at the North most favorable to our in- ' tercets. 1 Ho said, that after attending the Convention ' he was more than ever convinced that the Southern States acted widely in sending dele- 1 gates, that while it is impossible to foresee the result of the coming elections for Congress in the North, he was convinced that the l'hila- ' dclphia Convention had brought about that 1 condition of things iu Northern politics which was absolutely indispensiblc to the success of ' President Johnson's wise and patriotic policy, ' to wit : the bringing together into one grand and National Party, conservative men of all 1 shades of opinion, nud that he fell much en. ' cournged to hope that the coming elections 1 would bring tho success of the President's policy and justice to tho South. In refereuce to that portion of Col. Farrow's remarks, alluding to the imputation ofobsequiousness on the part of Southern members of the Convention, we would say that their conduct was just such as might have been expected from any who represented the South upon such principles as were contained in (lie invitation-to representation. They wore bcund to agree to all measures (hat did not exceed tiic platform upon which tin- South was invited and upon which sin sent her delegates. This pint form was couched in no dubious terms; they were too explicit to be misconstrued. If obsequiousness is chargeable to any it is to the people who consented to bo represented upon such term* as were contained in the invitation given them. There is nothin" contained in the "Declaration of Principles," or in any of > the proceedings of the Convention, which could not consistently be subscribed to by j those who advocated the sending of delegates to Philadelphia upon the terms allowed in the "Official Call." If that Convention had impu- | ted to Hon. JEFrr.usok Davis and his co-adju , tors a felon's guilt, we would not have boon deceived. It would have been in harmony with the platform which foreshadowed such action. Wc think it an inconsistency in any one to object, now, to the action of the delegates which no more imperils the honor of the South than did their own act of sending them to the Convention. It is here this obsequiousness commenced. It is chargcol le to those, as 1 much as to the delegates, who were well advised of the part their representatives would have to play when they sent them to tho Convention. rolicy sent delegatos to Philadelphia and policy guided them in their actions. % We ore indebted to the generosity of our friend, W. D. Mxlster, for n handsome spcciineu of the skill and workmanship for which he has becomeliotcd.

' Tiie Chariest on Courier says : We were shown jresterdny, a handsome monument, just com plcted at White's Marble Yard. It is design- 1 sd as a tribute of affection by Col. T. J. Moore, ' ?f this district, to his brave brother who fell ?t the second battle of Manassas. The hero ( wlicsc memory this monument is intended to i commemorate, was a graduate of the South Carolina College, with honors, we think in the Class of 18<?7. The monument is thus describ- , cd in the Charleston Courier: 1 The base of the monument is of granite, with a second base of tnurble, above, four feet I 1 three inches square. Over the second base is I u massive marble, with inscriptions ami rep- < resent at ions of the service in which the deems- 1 el yielded np hig life. In front is the follow- ' ing inscription : < IS MF.MOXIV of 1 ANDREW CHARLES MOORE, , Rorn March 11th, ls;;8. 1 Killed on the Plains of Manassas, Virginia, 1 August COlh li>02. "The best of motives is our country's good.' 1 On the back is a broken I'aliuctto, divided in ! [lie middle, the upper portion falling to the ground, leaving the trunk only standing. On ! ihc left of the die is a piece of artillery limbered up ready for action, and on the right a 1 iUick ef arms. ' Above the die is a Corinthian column of purest Italian innrble, nineteen inches in diameter, with a beautifully chiseled wreath <>f ,lau- 1 rel encircling the Confederate and battle Hags ' crossed. The cap of the column is eurmouutsd with a richly carved urn. ?? i?i ? For the Carolina Spartan. Mr. Editor : Wo were pleased to see fiom j he nomination in your paper of last week, .hut the friends of sobriety and good order, I were making nn effort to put down the licen- 1 ting of retail lnpior shops?which has provcu tuch an unmitigated curse to our Village for 1 lie last twelve months. 1 That simple nomination lias doubtless elicit rd many an anxious, earnest prayer from the >r >V:?n hearts of wives and mothers whose msbands and sons have learned the way to ' he Village grocery. A few days ago a man was entrusted with j i small sunt of money, hard earned by the in- < lustry and economy of his wife, for the pur- 1 Jose of purchasing a tew necessary articles ^ or the family; but before lio hud nmilc the lurchases, he was induced to take ono dram vhicli prepared the way lor others, and instead >f making a happy household that oveniug, < here might have been seen a disappointed " vifc in tears, and children hiding from their uihcr. Such iustnnccs arc occurring daily, j ind will doubtless multiply as long as the ? present facilities for drinking arc afforded. 1 I5ui 1 do not propose to offer an a gumcnt >n this subject. The propriety cd' legalizing lie privilege of making men drtink, has long 1 tince ceased to be a question. Spartanburg lias for many years enjoyed , he reputation of being a sober and moral i tillage, but we certainly cannot boast that it 1 las been preserved untarnished for the past twelve months. Still we caunot believe that lie moral sentiment of the people has been i jhnngod. At the last municipal election the : ulvooates of the anti-license system allowed ( hcrasclves defeated by default. Several dry j tickets were nominated, and there being no concert of action, the votes were divided, ami i consequently all ttie tickets defeated. Another ) effort of tho same kind is being made now. ' i Personal objections are being urged again-1 j ] ilie ticket nominated, and another being circu [tiled, representing Mie same principle. This is done by the supporters of the boons system, for the purpose cl'dividing theanti-liccns voio ' Several ol"the gentlemen nominated in this now ticket have positively declined to serve if elc* ted. Of these 1 am authorised to mention the the names of Maj. Joiin A. Lee an 1 t'apt. J. \V. Carlisle. It is earnestly Imped tlifft all personal objections to the gentlemen of the regular uomin i- j lion will be laid aside, and that the Iriemls of the great principle at stake will tusn out on the day of election, and unanimously support (lie nominated ticket.
