S. C. July 9. aMUesrs. Bruner 4f James :-1 have just ereturued from Winnsboro' twelve -miles of south of this place, where the State Teat. perauco Convention of South Carolina, m was holding its semi-annual meeting. Its ts sittings continued through two days, and ;h closed at a very late hour last night. About .one hundred delegates were in attendance from dil'erent portions of the State. The ri. body contained many men of talent and ,-, influence; and the debates were able, exci Stiug and interesting, yet characterized by great kindness, and unnttimuity of senti ment. The annual address was delivered b by Mr. Bowman, Editor of the Tempe rance Advocate, and wias replete with P eloquence and sound argument.. The prinical object of the speaker was to ex e9 hibit the evils of the vending of ardent y spirits; and the rumsellers suffered not a on little. ie On the evening of the first day, the it. audience were addressed by Rev. Dr. Hazelius, of Lexington. Lie-.t. Duryee. U. S. N. and Rev Mr. Barnwell, of Cbar al leston. The next day at eleven. addresses y, were heard from Rev. Mr. M'Cain, of Edgfield, and the Hon. J. B. O'Neall, the )> President of the Convention.-The latter h gentleman explained at some length the ,. present existing license laws of the State. tOn the L.ast evening the speakers were e .ev.- -, af N. C., Rev. Mr. Freeman, o. of Charleston, and Lieut. Duryee. All the speeches were excellent, abounding in t- argument, illustration, and interesting inci te dent. The effects were most happy: about one hundred individuals signed the > pledge, among whom were not a few of great influence,-(Ladies of course.) The most important subject discussed in the Convention was the License System, s or the Aiken Resclutions- Twelve months id ago, at the Aiken Convention, resolutions, were passed to petition the Legislature for k the privilege being given to each District 1 to withhold or grant license to retailers, e by a popular vote of the . District. Some e petitions w--re sent up to the Legislature. . at its last session, but they. were' regarded Be like the petitions of our fore-fathers to-the s British Parliament. The subject was s. brought before the recent Convention, and k after an able and lengthy debate the Aiken er Resolutions were sustained without a dis ie senting voice. The Legislature will be 1e again petitioned by thousands ; and the th prospect is, that South Carolina, like New as York, will soon stand "redeemed, regene a rated and disenthralled, from the curses of er liquor selling. se The effects of this meeting were happy as in a high degree, and the influence will 7e long be felt, and the scenes 'Of the Conven as tion remembered with pleasure by those 30 present. ,r- A Committee was appointed, of whom id Rev.

There can be no..dubit but at the time that Commodore Stockton declared all the ports of the west coast of Mexico in a state of blockade, he was satisfied that the troubles in California were at an end.

On inquiry we have learned that though some fifteen persons were injured, mostly blacks, only three (one white and two black men) were considered in a dangerous state when the last passenger train left. It appears that the first up train of yesterday come in collision with the second dawn train, which contained a number of workmen employ ed on the Camden branch ; and that the accident occurred at the 108 miles station, three miles from Gadsden.

After he had got sent ed in the cars about leaving for Lockport, between twenty and thirty colored persons, as had been previously arranged among themselves, rushed to the cars and attempt ed to tak'e by force the object of their sym pathies-some throwing .obstructions on the track while others mounted the cars. They were resisted by the conductor, en gineer and others. A general melee ensued-stones and brickbate were freely used. by which a number were'severely injured, when the train finally got under way. There was a good deal of excitement during the after noon but no open outbreak. In the eve ning a demonstrarion was made by some of the baser sort upon a building occupied by a number of blacks who dicharged two pistols at the assailants without material in jury, and then made their escape. After this the attack upon the building was re newed with redoubled fury and it was im mediately razed to the ground. The affair was to uudergo a legal investigation to day. OBIT UARY.
