Mr.~Dunn, on behalf of the re beir formi par-ty, made some remarks in the riot mor-ning as a prelude to w~hat he wished iem to say at night. In the evening the and Court House being lighted, a number roum of white and colored citizens attended, and addresses wer-e niade by Dunn. aw. Thomias and Cain. which were marked with calm and dlispassionate reasoning. ). It was regr-etted by the speakers and my- audience that the attendance was not mnk gi-eater, but the fact that Judge Green ent- w-as absent, and also that the regular pa- repubican party were in nominating ;our convention elsewhere, accounted for to the slini attendance. Whatever the ess, cause, it is to be regr-etted that the ad bas dresses were not beard by a larger iind nube of people, for it is only fair nthat both sides of the question should be heard. It was announced at the ocondusion of the niceting that the peo liti. pIe of Newberry would be fur-ther ad is of dressed, and that sudh time would be pa- selected and arrangements made as ,by would insure a greater attention. eart ~ - domu Ok the road to the wedding of Miss ank heran,October 1, tile horses at a.tached to the P'resident's carriage be b e anie frightened and ran off, near Seventh street and New York avenue The carriage contained the Pre-sident pro- iand 31rs.

The wisLom of this ourse is not to be questioned. 'he 1clegates from Newberry were Messrs. Jo. S Hair, Wil. Ray and Joseph 'aldwell. The following embodies the ition of the Convention: The Convention adopted, without a issentiug voice, the followigu pream Ale and resolutious Whereas. the Republican party be nUg in the majority iU this State, is re pousible for its government, and the 2onservatives of the State having de -lared that if the Republican party ould nininate for Governor and Lieu lenant-Goveuer men of their own par ty of honesty and character, entitled to confidence, the Conservatives would refrain from opposition to them; and whereas the reg,ular nominating con veution of the Republican party have 1ominated for Governor and Lieutenant Governor men whose antecedents show them to be unwerthy of confi 3eoce. and whose success will insure the continuance of the corruptiou. :ishonesty and party tyranny, which have prostrated the State; and where s the indepeudent wing of the Re publican party has declared its inten iou to reform the government of the State and in pursuance of this in tentiou have made nominations of men whose antecedents entitle theu to confidence in their integrity and honesty, for which nominations they have asked the support of the conserv ative voters of the State ; and whereas we recognize that in the present codition of the State thte necessity of cheking corruption and procuring honest ofiials is paramount to all juestions of party politics of affiliation; and believing that the only opportunti t afforded o.f securing such reform ill be in the success of the nonminees f the.
