Wednesday Morning, Oct. 30. THE CONTENTION?HOW SHALL WE VOTE 1 To prevent any misapprehension of the position assumed by us last week, vre recur to this subject again, in order to show clearly the requirements of the Reconstruction measures in relation to the majorities necessary to authorize the holding of a State Convention There are two great errors, iuto one or both of ?which many have fallen.. First, that tEe Supple? mental Bill requires a majority of the registered votes to be cast in favor of a Convention. This is not the case. The requirements of the law arc that a majority of the registered votes shall be cast on the question of holding a Convention?cither for or against. We will illustrate- this point by re? ference to the registration returns. It is stated that tho total number registered in South Carolina is estimated to be 125,000, of which 45,000 are ?whites and 80,000 are blacks. The law requires that a majority of these registered voters shall cast their billots cither for or against a Convention? in the language of the act itself, "upon the ques? tion of holding a Convention." A majority of one hundred tend twenty-five thousand would be sixty two thousand five hundred and one. Now, if 81,251 votes be cast for a Convention, and 31,250 votes be cast against a Convention, un? der the terms of the act, the Convention will be held. Thus we perceive that a few votes over one fourth of the whole number registered can call a Convention, provided one-fourth of the registered voters shall cast their ballots for or against it, making, when both those for and against are added together, a majority of the registered voters. This simple illustration will show that every "voter casting his ballot "against a Convention" only increases the majority requisite to convene that body. Asit is impossible to defeat the Con? vention by voting against it, evei'y ballot thus cast will assist the Radicals in securing its convocation.. And if those who oppose the Convention refuse to make any endorsement upon their ballots, cither for or against a Convention, the Radicals will have to poll 62,501 votes, or a majority of the whole number registered, in order to secure the call of of that body. We do not believe it probable that this majority wiR not be secured out of the 80,000 negro voters, bat the only possible chanco to defeat the Conven? tion is in the manner here proposed. The other error to which we have reference is that the Convention order requires all voters to decide u;Don this question, for or against. Such as-order wonH be in contravention of the law, and could not b? issued. The first section of General Casbt's order declares that "all registered voters may vote 'For a Convention' or 'Against a Conven? tion.' and for delegates to constitute the Conven? tion." This is in exact accordance with the law, and leaves the voter untrammelcd in his choice. In conclusion, we wonld again earnestly urge upon the opponents of reconstruction to refrain from voting upon this question, and leave its de? cision to the newly enfranchised voters and their Radical confreres. . -9 NEWSPAPERS AND PERIODICALS. The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, one of the oldest and ablest papers in Georgia, has been en? larged! This gratifying evidence of prosperity is well deserved by our venerable cotemporary. The Greenville Mountaineer of last week an? nounces the temporary withdrawal of G. E. Elfoed, Esq., from its business management. He is suc? ceeded by Capt. F.'J. Bostick, to whom we extend a cordial "welcome. We have received the third number of the Sou?i trn Society, published at Baltimore. It is a hand? some eight page weekly, and contains a choice ?variety of reading matter- Among the contribu? tors we notice the names of W. Gillmobe Simms, Jobs-Esiex Cookb, Pauj* If. Hayxe, D. B. Lucas, and others of equal reputation. Address the pub? lishers, 2:26 W. Baltimore Street, Baltimore, Md. Terms $4.00 per annum. We have observed the prospectus of the Native Virginian, a first class literary and humorous pa? per, published at Orange C. IL, Ya. The editor. Dr. G. W. Bacbv, is one of the finest whs this country has ever produced, and his racy pen will be actively employed in making this new candidate popular among the masses. The first number will ? contain "John M. Daniel's Latch-Key," an original sketch of one of the most remarkable men Virginia ever claimed for her own. The Native Virginian is published by Bagby & Stofeb, at $3.00 per year. Tho Banner of Liberty, "an independent weekly newspaper, advocating Constitutional government, civil and religious freedom, and opposing Puri? tanism and its political progeny," has been entered upon our exchange list. It is the best and cheapest Democratic paper in the United States. Terms, $2.00 per year,, ot two copies for ?3.00. Address, Gilbeut J. Bbebe, New York City. The Little Corporal for November contains its nsoal variety of original and interesting matter. All new subscribers for 1868, sent before the close of next month, will receive the November and De? cember numbers free. Terms, one dollar a year. This lively companion will make all the children happier and better. Address, Alfred L. Si:well Chicago, 111. Oodey's Lady's Booh.?The November number has been received, and its contents are fully up to the-standard of a perfect magazine. This is a most favorable time to make up clubs, and we propose to open a list at this office. Persons who desire to secure the Book at a low price had better enter their names at once. Wc will continue to furnish the Intdligencer and Godey at S5.00 per annum. Frank Leslie's Magazine.?The November issue is also received, but has been in such demand among our friends that we have not had a chance to ex? amine its contents. We furnish this Magazine at $3.00 per annum, or fifty cents less than tho pub? lisher's price to our regular subscribers. Demoresi's Monthly.?The current number main? tains the exalted reputation of this favorise, for latest fashions and novelties. A full size pattern of a.winter cfoak accompanies this issue. Price, $3.00 per annum, or sent with the Intelligencer for $2J30 each. We would earnestly advise every household in the District to subscribe for at least oue of the above named magazines. Tho small amount ex? pended will be returned ten-fold in useful receipts, perfect patterns, or sensible nints. Besides, if every family will secure one, the Editor's copies may sometimes escape being "borrowed." Beg pardon, if we tramp on anybody's toes. -4?-. Tee Kestjlt.?One man took a paper and bis wife was happier than a king's ; his chil? dren all could read and write and talk of men and things. Another took no paper ; and while stroll? ing through the wood, a tree fell down upon his crown and killed him?as it should. Had he been reading of the news like brother Jim, we'll bet a cent that accident would not have happened him. LOCAL AND STATE NEWS. Editorial Delight.?To have your friends come in and read your old exchanges aloud to you. We've tided it. So says the Yazoo Ban? ner, and the sentiment is re-echoed by the press from Dan to Bcersheba. This sanctum is an ex ccption to the general rule, however, for all such improprieties are strictly prohibited. Ahem! Thanksgiving Day.?The President has proclaimed the 2Sth of November as a day of national thanksgiving. If we get back into the Uuion on or before that lime, we will take pleasure in observing the day ; otherwise, it will be mani? festly improper, since we are not included either in the roll of States or Territories. Heavy "Sell,"?The Darlington South? erner contains a four column advertisement from the Sherilf of that District. "By virtue of sundry tax executions" there are 377 tracts of land order? ed for sale on next Monday. The Market being overstocked, these lands will undoubtedly sell "cheap a3 dirt." Final Revision. ? The Registration Boards in this District will meet on Tuesday next, 5th day of November, in pursuance of General Orders, at the following places, and will continue in session five days-: Anderson C. H., William? ston and Dr. W. J. Millford's. Persons who have not registered should embrace this opportunity Important.?A circular from General Canby, in reference to the approaching election, declares that when a .Registrar is a candidate at the election ordered to take place on the 10th and 20th of November, he shall give notice thereof to the Post Commander, nnd his office will be deemed vacant. Change.?We ask attention to the change in the advertisement of FisitEn & Low rance, iu another column. They are agents for the sale of an improved Washing Machine, of South Carolina manufacture, which is highly re? commended. Die Ciiarlestoner Zietung.?The first number of a paper bearing this title has been received, but we have not read a word of it. The paper is good looking enough, but awfully Dutch. Our German friends are respectfully invited to ex? amine this copy. Gen. Jon.v A. Wageser is the editor, nnd C. G. Eeckmann & Co., proprietors. Inquest.?An inquest was held by John Wilson, Esq., Magistrate and acting Cor? oner, on Wednesday last, on the dead body of a col? ored infant, found that morning in the swamp on the premises of Capt. E. L. Pauker, of thisvillage. After patient investigation and the examination of a number of witnesses, the jury returned a verdict "that the said infant came to its death by strangu? lation, by the hands of its mother, Clary Williams, a frecdwoman, at sometime between tho fir?t and seventeenth days of the present month." The wo? man has been committed to jail upon the charge of infanticide. Mammoth Dry Goods Store.?The captivating advertisement of V. Ricn.\nDS & Bros., of Augusta, Gco., will not fail to receive a large share of attention. Ilaving recently inspected their large stock, we can speak knowingly as to its merits, and do not hesitate to declare that their fa? cilities are equal to any house within our knowl? edge. The partners arc originally from the Old Dominion, and are an honor to that noble and ven? erable State. Their place is designated as the "Fredcricksburg Store," and is adjacent to the far famed Planter's Hotel. We take pleasure in re ?commending the Richards Dr.os. to the people of this section, and hopo that none will neglect to give them a call when visiting Augusta. Pickens Court.?"Wo arc indebted to F. G. DeFo.ntaine, Esq., for the particulars con? cerning the important murder trial last week: The trial of Alexander Bryce and nine negroes, on the charge of the murder of Mji.es M. N. Hun nicett, took place at Pickens C. H. on Thursday, before his Honor Judge Dawkins. The State was represented by the Solicitor, Hon. J. P. Reku; the prisoners by Generals McGowax and Easlky, Messrs. Norton and Adams. The evidence and arguments occupied two days, and the jury, after an absence of half an hour, brought in a verdict of Guilty with reference to December Gadsden, Nat. Frazier, John Keith, Jack Walker, Green sTlevo iand, jr., and Jackson Henderson?all colored. Not Guilty with reference to Alex. Bryce, (white,) and Captain Deane, Bob. Breckenridgc and Mark Adams, colored. The testimony of the President of the Union League proved that all of the parties named con? stituted the guard sent out to arrest Bou Smith, J the white man who had fired a pistol in the neigh? borhood of the League ; that a portion of this guard were armed with guns and pistols, and un? der the direction of Jackson Henderson as Ser? geant; that December Gadsden, the Vice-Presi? dent of the League, from the description of his size and his bearing on the occasion, was the one who fired the fatal shot which took the life of young Ucnnicltt, the others being accessory to the crime. It also appeared in evidence given by both white and black, that the negroes used the most violent threats and language, imprisoned the white men present, in the Academy, and evinced a desire to prolong: the disturbance and resort to arms. The case was ably presented to the jury on the part of the State, and Generals E'asley and Mc Gowa.n defended the prisoners with more than usu? al eloquence and power. The Judge charged the jury on the law clearly, and both law and fact was then snbmittcd to their consideration, with the re? sult above stated. The sentence of the Court was that the pnrtics convicted should be executed at Pickens on the 0th of December next. the riot case. On Saturday, tho negroes indicted for riot on the 13th day of October, the day following tho murder, together with Alexander Bryce, white man, were tried?the same counsel, with the addi? tion of James II. Whjtxeb, Esq., representing the parties. Eighteen out of the thirty tried were convicted and sentenced as follows : Elias Kennedy, (indicted for complicity in the riot of Saturday night,) eleven months in the Pen? itentiary, with the privilege of paying $300 iu thirty days and being released. Isaac Drown, same sentence. Greene Clevelaud, Clarke Cleve? land, Gen. Sappho Bradley, James Keith, Thomns Orr and David Singleton, fourteen months in the Penitentiary ; John Butler, Doctor Franklin, Cap? tain Deane, John Reed, Robt. Breckcnridge, George Wright, Toncy Grant, Alex. Robinson, Amos Cum? in ings and Lewis Young, twelve months in the Penitentiary. The Court adjourned on Saturday evening. About Town.?We propose, dear reader, to saunter around the square this morning, and take a peep into the cstablishmants that hare hon? ored themselves and profited us by advertising this season. Of course-, people who don't value prin? ter's ink, enough to pay for its use, will scarcely expect to receive a call from the "local" to-day. "We have no quarrel with them on this account. Every man knows his own business best, but then somehow we have a peculiar liking for that class of men who are constantly keeping their business before the people, and as a general rule, we have always found them right in other respects. The starting point is an old-established printing office about the centre of Granite Row, up stairs, from whence issues the Intelligencer, a hebdomadal of respectable size, and one of the cheapest papers in the land. After receiving your money for the next year's subscription, we will introduce to you one of the cleverest merchants in all Christendom. This individual is Capt. W. S. Sharpe, of the en? terprising and reliable firm of Siiarpe & Past, lo? cated immediately underneath this office. The Captain and his obliging clerks are ready to show us the entire stock, from which a selection may easily be made rha> will please the "gudc wife" and little ones, provided you are the fortunate pos? sessor of such inestimable blessings. If not, and you rank among the dingy and crusty bachelor fraternity, here is a good chance to secure an out? fit wherewith to- kneel before some fair damsel, preparatory to joining the Benedictine line. Mar? ried man, eh 1 So much the better. Just look at those beautiful merinos, poplins, alpacas, prints, Empress cloths, and other elegant goods, marked down to the very lowest figures. They arc fit for royalty itself! Then there are the hats, bonnets, ribbous, and the like, nil in great profusion ! In glancing around tho store, the eye takes in vast piles of men's goods, women's goods, children's goods, and goods for all classes aud colors of peo? ple. But we have not time to examine the stock leisurely, and must hasten on. One word, how? ever, before going any farther. This firm is in the cotton market, at all times, and will pay the highest price for cotton and other produce, and then dispose of their goods at correspondingly low prices. Next we will drop in upon Messrs. Clawc & WniTr., dealers in Ready-Made Clothing. The senior is in the back room, superintending the tail? oring establishment, and giving all mankind "fits." He is a worthy, estimable gentleman, and although we once called him "noisy," it was only one of our funny goaks, as poor Artcmus Ward would say. Well, hero are broad cloths, beaver cloths, cassi mcres, and everything suitable to make a suit of any description, and at prices to cuit the low price of cotton, or the low condition of your pocket-book, either! Mr. White will also offer you a ready, made suit of business clothes, Sunday-go-to-mcct ing clothes, or wedding clothes, and if none of these meet your requirements, he is prepared to furnish anything in the Marble line to commemo? rate your virtues, when, having shnfHcd off this mortai coil, it will become necessary to tell the people that such a man once lived in this busy world. One door beyond is par excellence the place to visit, in order to keep peace in the family. House? keeping articles and provisions of every descrip? tion arc kept in abundance by Towers & Burriss, and these gentlemen understand the secrets of bu? siness. Quick sales, small profits, and liberal ad? vertising, constitute their mercantile creed. Staple and fancy groceries, crockery, glassware, wooden ware, and a thousand other things, are on their shelves or neatly packed away. One cannot resist the temptation to examine (heir fine assortment of cooking stoves?an indispensable article, accord? ing to the ladies. Besides offering an endless va? riety of goods in this line, Mr. Towers is the agent for several Insurance Companies, and will make out n policy either for your life or property?both are requisite in these "evil days." This brings us to the "corner" where wc recog? nize a new firm of pleasant (old) gentlemen, Evi.ss & Bi.ecki.ey. Their stock is now complete, ami they arc determined lo secure a large share of prtronnge from the people. Everything has been arranged with scrupulous taste, and the goods were carefully selected to meet the want? of this sec? tion. "A new broom sweeps clean," and we are confident that this new firm will make a clean sweep of your money, if they arc allowed a chance to dis? play goods and recapitulate prices. Wiihout en? tering into ditail.it is easily observed that this stock embraces sufficient variety to satisfy the de? mands of the public in every respect. Across the square, at No. 1 Brick Range, there arc a couple of clever fellows, and wc will not fail pay theui a visit. This store is occupied by C A Rked & Uountxs, and has lately been refitted iu good style. One of the firm recently visited Charleston, and there purchased n capital stock of goods after the dcclino in prices. This enables them to offer bargains to customers. Never fail to give them a call, and expeet an honest, hearty welcome, and the best of treatment. At the other end of Brick Range, wc will meet with an old familiar face, pehaps n couple of them. An ex-Clerk and ex-Sheriff hold forth there. The store is in the name of E. Wedd, Agent, and that well-known gentleman is assisted by "Hunkidora" Joe McGkk. The stock is not among the largest in town, but embraces every variety of goods usually kept in retail houses, and at prices equally favorable to the buyer. Our attention is next attracted by a newly white-washed building onMcCully's Corner, whsrc J. E. Harper & Co. hold forth. The unsightly ap? pearance of this building, a few years ago, is easily 1 remembered, but it has been reconstructed on the white basis, and we take pleasure in acknowledg? ing the fact. The business partner, J. E. II., is an experienced merchant, and quite fortunate in making selections to please the fair creation JIc is consequently popular among the ladies, being withal a good-lo.oking and affable fellow. When the belter-half employs a dny in one of those de? lightful shopping excursions, remember IIaki'Er, and she will thank you for the suggestion. Be? sides, there is every accommodation for the male fraternity, from a pocket knife to an elegant chapeau. A few steps further on is Ihe well-known house of Bkwley, Kkesr & Co. These gentlemen arc advertising iu a small way this Heaeon, but their stock ranks among the heaviest in town, as usual. It is unnecessary to particularize the men ; they have earned a business reputation long ago, and that of the most favorable character. Their present supply of goods is ample to meet the demands of an increasing trade. Tho next door wc find the Drug Store of Caters & Walters, and a very handsome affair, loo. The brorthers Cater nttend to the business, while the other partner fills the position of editor of the S. C. Baptist, nnd has no spare time to devote to Com? pounds and mixtures of vile drnga. The senior of the brothers has recently purchased the present stock in New York, and it will compare favorably with any similar stock in this region. Besides drugs, medicines, paints, oils, dye-stuffs, and "sich like," their assortment of fancy goods is un? surpassed, ? k In passing from thence to Granite How, we.will necessarily discover the convenient '-land slide," erected by our worthy Town Marshal, and which is really of the greatest service to pedestrians. Entering the first door, we are sure to meet with a kind reception. The firm is under the name and style of Sullivan, Mattison & Co., and contains another pair of brothers, full of frolic and well versed in business affaire- The Sullivans have been long known in the mercantile lice, and their reputation is beyond reproach. Their stock is fresh, ample and varied, and the propensity to sell cheap is one of their characteristics. We are now nearing the point of separation, as the printer's devil is after us for "more copy." But. we must drop in here to sec M. Lessee, one of the oldest merchants in town, and one of the shrewdest buyers within our knowledge. He has always an extensive stock, and sells remarkably low. "If you don't see what you want, call for it." Lesser has the article piled away somewhere, and will produce it instantly. A peculiar feature in this establishment is, that the "old man" replen? ishes his stock repeatedly during the season, and always conforms to the latest decline in prices. Nickerson.?Tin's- name is sufiiciently wcll known to the traveling public, and will in? voluntarily be connected by every reader with luxurious hotel accommodations and the polite at? tentions of "mine host." As the proprietor of the Mills House in days of yore, Col. Nickerson won an enviable reputation, while during the late war, in Columbia, his house was the popular resort for uhousands. Since the war, in Columbia nnd Au? gusta, the tide of travel has always sought the places bearing his name, and moreover, it will con? tinue to do so. We regret to know, however, that our excellent old friend, Kobert Hamilton, has bien forced to retire from the management of Nickcrson's Hotel in Columbia, in consequence of ill health. He will carry with him the best wishes of numerous friends and acquainlanees throughout the South, accustomed to bis genial hospitality and clever attentions. Mr. W?icnT, formerly of the American Hotel, Richmond, Va., succeeds him, nnd we cannot be more flattering than to wish for him the same uniform success of his predecessor. "Old Nick." will remain in Augusta, and continue to dispense the lavish hospitalities of the Planters' Hotel, which is one of the very best houses in the country. Resignation,?We inaclver&enSly doit ted to raeniioir last weck tliivt Maj. Ben. Sloan had resigned the position of Snperrnten-dent of the Greenville and Columbia Railroad. He has been an efficient officer, and serf cd the Company faith? fully. As an indication of his popularity with the employees, we are pleased to observe that they have presented him with a handsome .saddle, bridle and whip, it being known to them that he expected to take charge of a large plantation, which would necessarily require the services of a horse. A neat pair of spurs accompanied the other equipments. Personal.?YVc were pleased to greet in our sanctum, on Monday last, F. G. DeFox taine, Esq., Private Secretary to the Governor. This gentleman has been in attendance upon the Court at Pickens. and has made a full and com? plete report of the trial for murder, which has at? tracted such general attention. Our friend is enc of the best phonographers in this country, and wields a ready and vigorous pen, as an editor and correspondent. He is in good health, and lively as a cricket. -_ -<s^ BROWNLOW. The telegraph announces that this old reprobate has been elected United States Senator by twenty majority. The Louisville Courier, previous to the election,.gets off the following:. "Brownlow, in a message to the Tennessee Leg? islature, announces himself a candiilnlc for the United States Senate. He says that his health, though far from being good, is yet firmer than it was a year ago, and he hoj.es that by the time he will have to take his scat (18(i!l) he will have re? cuperated sufficiently to be able to discharge all the duties appertaining to the office. "Iu the meantime, he will discharge the duties of Governor of Tennessee, until the time arrives for him to take his seat in the United Stales Sen? ate. What a greedy old cormorant, lie is, to be sure. Brownlow, ThadL Stevens, and Ben. Wade!
