RATIFICATION MEETING IN GREEN WOOD. Editor Abbeville Press and Banner : An unusually large assembly of both white aud colored met on the Campus Grounds in Greenwood Monday night last to ratify the nominations of the Cincinnati Convention. The impatient crowd manifested so much feeling and eagerness on the subject that it was al most impossible to eali the meeting to order. Mr. James Butler, colored, however, &t the top of his voice finally succeeded in arresting the attentiou of the ail s' r?r v. ilience, auu upon iucuuu R. Calhoun t.o the Chair. The Doctor was conducted to the ros trum by a special committee of excellent gentlemen. By motion, Mr. S. P. liooxer was requested to act as Secretary ?accompanied by two assistants. Perhaps more enthusiasm was never manifested by so large a mixed conclave of white and colored. Our esteemed Chairman made the happiest effort of his whole life. His stirring address will; forever ring in the ears, and settle on j the brains of those who heard him. He .reviewed the life of the Hon. Horace Greeley to the delight of the whole au dience. After discussing his merits as a1 Sreat, consisteut, and truly loyal man, I e presented the abolition doctrines of ithe Hon. Horace Greeley. He claimed ifor Mr. Greeley that emancipation of,1 the slave was due him, si mi that he or-! ganized the Emancipationists before' Grant tvas known; whereupon theim-j n,?"ao "?? of men shouted with up-| /oarious applause, and the Doctor took mis seat amid deafening yells of Greeley ;iUid 3rown. Several other gentleman were called uoon, who did themselves no ordinary ^credit, but time forbids delineation. One of the colored speakers however , claimed tljiat Mr. Greeley, unlike Cieu. ^Jraut, the warrior, would, if elected, .carry his sword loose in its sheath. 'The Amendments he considered a suffi cient guaranty to civil ayd religious lib erty?and that no man was more ready; ito enforce them than the Hon. Horace | Greeley. Shouts and cheery Mr. Da vid Owens, colored, ottered the follow ing preamble and resolutions, which passed? Whereas, Mr. Greeley, from boy hood to old age1 has been "the unreleni ing champion of emancipation, the bestower of civil and religious liberty upon all mankind, and the impartial ad vocate of justice without regard to race or color, Therefore, be it Tiint we heartilv endorse the nominations of the Cincinnati Con vention, will do all that in us lies to sustain the platforms adopted, and in extending general amnesty will receive the provisions of the late Amendments. Passed by the majority. Jtesolvcd, That we extend our thanks to the Cbairmau and Secretary of this meeting, and the proceedings be p:ib. Jished in the Abbeville and Columbia jwpers. JJpon motion the meeting adjourned. E. R* CALHOUN, Chm'n. S. P. Boozkk, Sec'y, assisted. -CINCINNATI CONVENTION. The following is the telegrapic sum mary of the last day's proceedings of the great Conveutiou of the Liberal Reformers at Convention, which has nominated, we trust, the next President and Vice-President of the United States, jin the persons of Horace Greeley and <Uratz Brown: P.vnTWi ATov 3?Pocoino T\f Plnv J and Judge Matthews addressed the Con vention last night. The proposition to nominate caused confusion, several de siring to speak. The Convention disre garded the gavel. The Convention was divided?one party desiring the plat form, the other the candidate, to have [the precedence. Parliamentary tactics ^prevented business, and after'a vehe ment discussion, the Convention ad journed to 10 o'clock to-day. Greeley's tariff platform?leaving the people to speak tnrongh their representatives re garding the tariff?dominates. The Union and Reform Convention is fully organized. They want to secure State rights. They want a man for President who can be a soldier in war and a citizen in peace. This movement is for Trumbull for President and a Southern man for Vice-President. The Irish-American Reform League is in session here, sitting with closed doors, it is sum tne league opposes Adams and favors Greeley. * The Liberal Convention adjourned at JO o'clock. A resolution tliat when the Convention ballots, there shall be no formal nominations, passed. The plat form was nanimously adopted, amid gr&ttchipering. The resolutions declare the'Equality of all men before the law; The Union of the States; no re-opening iit the questions settled by the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments; the removal of disabilities incurred in the rebellion; general amnesty; local self government; ^supremacy of civil over military authority; respect for habeas corpua; a return ?9 methods of peace, maintenance of a constitutional limita tion of power; civil service reform; a tingle term for the Presidency; a system of Federal taxation'which shall not un necessarily interfere with the industry of the people; and,as there#re honest, irreconcilable difference^ qf opinion as to the merits, respectively, of the sys tems of protection and free trade, that that question be. remitted to the people .in the Congressional District*?, [wild cheering,] and the decision of Congress thereon left wholly free of executive interference or dictation ; the mainte nance of the public credit against repu diation in every form; a speedy return to specie payments; recognition of the services and sacrifices of soldiers and| sailors; against further grants of land to railroads or other corporations; in I foreign friendship, demanding nothing not right, submitting to nothing wrong. [A TO] ce?"Three cheers for the second declaration of Independence!^] Amid great crie3 of "Question," overwhelm ing a few who tried to get the 11 oor to fp^ak, the chair put the question ; when the report was adopted, with loud and continued cheering.

Before the vote was announced, Gratz Brown, by unan imous coil sent took the stand, and thanked his friends for their support of him, but withdrew his name, and asked his friends to support Horace Greeley. rGreat cneers, vim persisieni msses.j i The Chair arose to announce the vote,! when a Missouri delegate arose to a: question of privilege, gmel asked to change his vote. Considerable confusion ensued, various delegations asking to change their votes, and contention arising in some of them, notably Ken tucky, as to what the changes amofcg themselves really \yer$, jL'assius M. Clay announced Kentucky's vofe changed as follows: Five from Brown to Greeley, and one from Brown to Adams. ' New Jersey changed some of her votes. "The Chair announced the result as follows: Adams, 203; Trumbull, 110; Davis, kW; Greeley, 147; Brown, 95; Curtin, 62; Chastt, 2}. Whole number, 614; neces sary to a choice, 307. No choice was made. Missouri asked leave to retire for con sultation. Vice-President Julian took "the chair. Casey, from the District of Columbia, offered a resolution giving a vote to the Territories, which was tabled. $IcClurc withdrew Curtin's name, and, pjiked leave for the Pennsylvaniadelega-' tiou to retire, which was granted; Pro ceedings were suspended until a return of the absent delegations. Oil the second ballot, Greeley received 236; Adams, 243; Trumbull, 148.; Davis 81; Brown, 2; Chase, 1. Subsequently, California changed from Davis to Uree I ley.

Before the vote 1 |was formerly announced, Minnesota I changed 9 from Trumbull to Greeley, i ! Various States"changed their votes, but j | the scene was one of such confusion and v | noise, that it was impossible for the re [porte'rsto hear. Apparently Greeley is 1 nominated. McClure changed Pennsyl- c j vania to 30 for Greeley and 0 for Davis; ^ [great cheers;] Indiana changed to 27 3 for Adams. A stampede of changes to Greeley here occurred, but the noise j (and confusion rendered it impossible to 1 j hear details.

Goss, indicted for conspi racy, was declared forfeited, and execu tion was ordered to be issued, Cincinnati Nomination in Washington. Washington, May 4.?While the nomination excites mirth in all high political circles here, it seriously changes the probable programme. The Demo cratic leaders were virtually pledged to Ciucinnati, with Davis as a standard bearer, but now theshr.e\v.destpoliticians predict a square Democratic nomination. in view of the interest taken in the probab'e action of the Demo cratic party, the following from the World is telegraphed; It editorially expresses profound surprise at the result in Cincinnati. Adams, who proved bv far the strong est of all tho candidates who had been expected to be strung in the Convention, might have been cordial ly endorsed by the World, as he would have been cordially supported by the Democratic party. Greeley can re ceive no such endorsement, nor has be any right to expect any such sup port. The Convention has chosen to nom inate the most heated and conspicuous opponent of tho Democratic party iri the country. The countrjr called for r% rl 1 f koO C? /"II rt f i\i -J rGVUlJ UU I t*n;i HJ, auu It u.o the most zealous protectionists. This leaves the Democratic party en tirely free to await the developments of the immediate futuro, and opens the way for a possible Democratic victory. The World will reserve its judgment until the meeting of the National Convention to be called. Next week there will be National Committee meeting in this citj\ The World recommends an early dato for the assembling of the Convention. The Philadelphia Age suggests a straight Democratic ticket. The New York Ilerald editorially welcomes tfrecjey into the campaign us a man whom thopeople will always "Qonont. (infi honor. The Herald adds: Whether we shall support or oppose him must be decided by himself. He has received this nomination, and if he avoids certain fallacies thaf have embarrassed the usefulness of' |ais career, we shall support him. Cincinnati, May 3 ?The following telegram from Greeley was received here after he Lad been informed of his nomination: New York, May 3.?To Whitelaw Reid?Please tender my grateful ac knowledgements to the members of the Convention for the generous con fidence they have shown me, and as sure them 1 shall endeavor to deserve it; " fSi<rned>) IIoraco Greeley. (the address of the National Con vention of the Ij-}sb 4-tjiei-jcan league concludes: ' We take the liberty of suggesting the immediate organization of Greeley clubs or leagues in every ward, cily and county, and that an'efficient State committee be appointod for a more general direction of, and eo-operati< 11 the good work. Then organi ind let, cur watchword be Greeli md victory. Signed in behalf of the comniittei James J. Rogers, Chair., N. 1 John jIcCafferty, Sco , Missou: Georgia Sentiment.?The Augus Tonstitutionalist, alluding to Mr. Gre e3*'s nomination, says: Among the Democrats the predot narit sentiment seems to be that, tctwccn G*ant and Groeiey, the latt \*ould bo infinitely preferable. If r luced to the alternative of taking or >r tho other, the least nauseous do vould be Horace Greeley. In pc onal respectability and in mental c acity, lio towers above Grant as all tree above a distorted bush. But there is a thousand reasons wl lorace Greelej' would bo distaste! ,nd offensive to Democrats, It is impossible that they can fe ny pleasure in his nomination, < ontemplato his possible election e ept as an evil of less magnitude thn ho continuance of the present di [listing state of things. . "The platform is an immense ir rovement upon the theories ar iractices of the present aaminisir ion. There is nothing in it unaccep bio to the Southern Democracy, e: ept in reference to the Constitution: Lmendmcnts, and there will be 1 usuperable obstacle to a union of tV ntelligence and patriotism of tl louth upon it even on that poin Jut it is premature to speak of wh: he action of the Democratic part rill be. There must be time for r ection and interchange of views an ^r a deliberate survey of the fieli 'hat great party is uncommitted i o its course. It will not be true 1 8 traditions and to its duty if it ai astily, excitedly, or under the ii pi ration of past prejudice and pa ion.
