Tuesday. Any speculation aa to tho probable nom inees would be useless, as before this issue I reaches many of our readers the news of tho.action of tho Convention will have j bees received by them. lt ia evident that the delegates bare met with the determination to present for tho s?ffrngo of the poople a good tick et ; one that will command the confidence and support of all who desire an honest and constitutional government of the country, and ono too that by virtue of its merits will defeat, the Chicago nominar tion. - Wp regard tho Cincinnati -Con vention os naming the next President of | tho United State?. .As wp go to press? telegrams are pour ing -in giving the proceedings of tho Convention.

Instant, Mr. R. W. Peckham, on? of the delegates, presented Mr. Tilden's letter doc?iri?ng tho nomination for the Presidency.. Thia letter manifesta a noble abd. patriotic spirit. It presents a distinct issue for the ensuing1 political, contest, wbich ls para mount to nil other, issues : whether the people shall elect their rulers, or bribed t:nd *XHTupt returning boards. Mr/ Tilden heida' that to con?ono tho frauds 'thai placed the Republicans in power nt tho laat election is to constitute bribery, fraud, corruption and force superior to the will of the people, and to destroy free and represeahiUvo, govprnnient. It may be said that Mr. Tilden'* declination of a renomination ia owing tb a tense of inability to Becpre lt; this may be so, and if so, ?hows that Mr. Tilden, although defrauded by. tho most' nefarious means of the highest honor a free people could bestow, was willing for the sake of the harmony and success of bis party, to retire from tho political contest, and leave history to do him justice. If Mr. Tilden ?hould c=c:i his power And influence toi the ?lection of the nominees of tho Convention, ho witt de monstrate hts patriotism, and pfove that he ia more devoted to principio and the establishment and perpetuation of free government than to Ute advancement of his personal ambition. If Mr. Tilden >hnd continued his candidacy, it would have very much embarrassed the Con vention, and might haye led to the defeat of the nominee. :Mr. Tilden's with drawal w?a evidently to secure the har mony and peace cf the party, and thus Insure success, and for thia he mutt receive the commendation of bia party. i n.iT>r<fiAT.

Tho .correspondent presumed very much on the ignorance and credulity of bis far off readers, when be asserted that another caus? of complaint anio jg the dp-coantry leaders is that counties which bavo actual Democratic majorities are not represent ed on the State ticket .nor among the Presidential Electors, tile delegates to Cincinnati, or the Executive Committee. Was there ever a more reckless statement made? The Presidential Electors wera nominated from different parts of the State, ono : from each; Congressional Dis trict, and one was nominated from An derson County, which gives a large actual Democratic majority ; and Anderson baa one of the representatives to Cincinnati, and also a member of tho State Exccu tttive Committee. The Democracy of Anderson are mi ted and identified with the Democracy of tho State and of the United States, contend ing for an honest, economical asd upright administration of the State and Federal governments, and the perpetuation of free government, and are opposed to Re publicanism under any guise it may as sume, not even excepting that of in dipendontiam. * TUB CORRUPT CANDIDATE. The honest, intelligent voters of the United States will never place in tho seal of Washington, Jefferson, Madison and Jackson one whose moral character and political integrity arcas vulnerable as as the following resolutions, adopted by a large body of General Garfield's con stituents, September 7, 1876, correctly MpMunt that of the Chicago semises to be: : Resohd, That we arraign and denounce Jemes A.

SOME HORE RADICAL LIES. Tho Varietal Htrtcto-Fotcn, of, PoUtlcal Odds and Katta. Latoly Promulgated. Cvrreijmuleilce of The New York Times, 'jj CHARLESTON, S. C., Juno ll. Much has been said in tho South Caro lina newspapers about restored harmony in tho Democratic party, and the v narai acquiescence in the result of thu /ccent Democratic State Convention. These aa BuranccB loo'.; well on paper, and sound well in tito ears of the Hampton men, but there is not the slightest particle of truth iu them. A brief visit to the upper counties wilt convince the most obtuse observer that the discomfiture of the Gary faction by tho State House ring hos Wid ened the breach between the two factions. While tho counsel of tho moro prudent of Gary's friends may carry some weight and prevent the nomination of another ticket, it is safe tb predict that Ibo Gary men, or "atraightouts," will not Bupport tho ticket forced upon them by the Ha Scod men. In. Edgefield, Abbovillo, An orson, Ocr.nce, Pfckoiis and Greenville Counties tho feeling is most bitter, and the prospects of an independent move ment are freely discussed. Tho chief grievances aro the intolerable arrogance of tho aristocratic " bull-dozers" control ling the Hampton or, erroneously termed, '.'Fusion" wing of the Sooth Carolina Democracy, who look upon tho State as their property, and the working and mid dle classes na tneir vassals ; high taxation, which amounts to.slow confiscation of tho property owned by the agricultural classes; the obnoxious fence law, which protects the. rich and prevents the poor from rais ing or owning cattle. Tue hardship of the latter ia most seriously felt in tho mountain di Griots. Undor tho old cattle law were allowed to roam at largo, which enabled the poor to raiao their annual Bupply of moat without much cost. Tho new law compela a " fenc'ng-in " of stock and enforces the expense of Teeding cattle on all who own no grasslands. Nine-tenths of the Inhabitants of the districts above named own only a fow acres of cultivated land, in a corner of which their hogs and cows are peuned up,. slowly, starving to death. Men who have grown gray in the Democratic party openly assert that thev will never vote another Democratic tickot. Another cause of complaint among the up-country leaders is that tho counties which havo actual Democratic mhjoritica are not represented on the State ticket nor among tho J?resldcntia? ?lectora, the delegates to Cincinnati, or tho Executive Committee. " Tho truth Is," said a prom inent Edgefield politician a fow days ago, " we aro tired ot our aristocratic masters, and want ft chango. lu tho Columbia Convention they started out with a Gen eral and wound np witb a Colonel, and ?ven tent so far aa to provide for us an other mauler to mle ofter Hagood. lam alluding to General Brstton, wh?m they elected chairman of the Executive Com mittee. Anticipating a national triumph, they have already fixed up a slate for the Federal appointments in this State: Col onel Simunton to succeed United States District Judge Bryan ; Major Barker for United States District Attorney ; Colonel Miles for Collector of Customs; Chancel lor Lessens for Postmaster at Charlest?n ; Hampton's son-in-law, Haskell, for Col lector cf Internal Revenue.

Field Sunday Mg ut. gjKcial Vbpa?ehrt to the Newt and Courier. CINCINNATI, Juno 20. The political situation baa' some sali ent points, tho most noteworthy of which are the chaotic condition of the New York delegation and the attitude of the Indiana delegation. It is asserted and not denied that a letter of ex-Gover nor Tilden is in possession of his brother here, to be produced nt the proper time, in which le'.ter the recluse of Gramery Park declines to allow his name to be placed io nomination for president. Tho belief is that he bas a faint hope that in a spasm of remorseful gencroaity thc Convention will then nom/nato him in spite of himself. Of this there is no possible chance, and Lhere is a bard fight for the Tilden delegates. Speaker Ran dall was promised tucse delegates by Tilden in return for the work Randall has done in the House of Representa tives, it ia said. But Payne, of Ohio, is the happy possessor of a similar pledge for a different consideration, and tu him Tilden will Uiru overas many delegates as be cac control. Randolph's friends are indignant that tho breach of faith ahould be against their favorite, and will give Payne no quv.ter. There is no telling where the Nev York delegation will now go; and it ie quite likely that Randall and Payne wiil cut each other'? throats. Neither hts any chance of getting tho first place on the tickot os thirka stand, but until they were thrown iuto antagonism by Tilden';; duplicity they bad some strength, and Randall even now is spo ken of for Vier President if a Western man takes tho nomination for President. It is conceded that tbs Democrats must nominate a ticket that will carry New York and Indiana and make Con necticut and New Jersey safe. No man hos yet been named unless it be Randall, to whom the two 'actions in New York would have glv?.-r their wholo votes. Thia, at least, is the Now York view of it. It is urged also that no Western man can parry New York, but tho Indi ana delegation tell me that they cannot undertake to carry their Stato unless Hendricks be nominated for President, and further that Hendrick, will take no other nomination, nor will Indiana bo holpcd by the nomination of McDonald ana English for Vice-president. To insure Indiana in October and November Hendricks must bo tho standard-bearer. Between the two stools, New York and indiana, the Democrats aro inn precari ous position; but I am confident that some means of accommodation will bo rnnnhed. Nothing can be said definitely of the actual voting Btrength of tho loading candidates! Field bas by far tho best workers and a complete organization, and claims 168 votes on tho first ballot. The Field movement has neither confidence ia nor affection for tho candidate as ita foundation. It ?B machino made and 1 expect it to fall to pieces. Jowett's frienda aro active and hope ful and as a railroad magnate coming from Ohio and living in New York if supposed to bb peculiarly available. Il ia too early to say more.

Bayard has .mort real strength thau any other candidate bot it is allowed to remain latent, whili other candidates are strained to the ut most and their beet points harped upoi in and out of eoason. Al this writing it is' anybody's race mainly on account of the attitude of In diana, and tho scattering of ' tho vol amongst five or six candidates; but b to-morrow the mists may ' have riser All the South Carolina delegates, sav one, are hore, and will meet tor organ! cation to-morrow.

It is now pretty certain, nbtwithstam ing tho threatening attitude of the Ii diana delegation, that no Western ros as such will be nominated. New Yor wHh New Jersey and Connecticut, at the 138 votes from tho South, will ele the Democratic candidate, or Connect cut can be dispensed with, if Oregon I won. There ia no question, howevc that the present purpose is to give M Donald, of Indiana, tho second place c tho ticket, and it ia bolieved he can at will carry his State.

Cash, ono of the princi pals'in the attempted Cash-DeP?ss duel, makes the following observations in an article in the Carolina f>'un, published at Cheraw, on the Camden and Kershaw Anti-Duelling Association, which hos been organized at Camden since the diffi culty referred to occurred, ii ?rill be re membered that Coi. DePass is a citizen of Camden, and that Col. Cash is a citi zen of Chesterfield: "Wo are informed that this Camden association ls composed of men wbo will do their whole duty, aud put an end to the- "criminal" practice of duelling. Camden has grown pious, very slow, very! As long as ber man would fight, wo heard not one word ?bout the "crim inal practice of duelling." For years that section has been regarded as the Galway of the State, and only a abort time ago. Williams and Courtney were permitted to leave the town to fight duela -there was no bowling on tho ?o occa sions. Williams and Courtney were will ing fo ?ght and were not molested; but j?ct so soon as two of tho leading citizens of the town strike their colors * * ? * * up pops an anti-duelling society * * and I suppose with every braggart and bully in the town as members, ouch an association will bo a bomb-proof and God-send to all tho liars, slanderers and cowards of the place. Thoy can speak of their neighbors as they please, and when called to account, will "shirk" their responsibility by pleading membership of this association. What a pity this movement had not been inaugurated two weeks ago I It would have served as a coat of mail for on intimate friend and ulose connection of this pious Pr?sident, and saved a vast amount of white-wash ing rendered necessary by recent events. The urch-angols take lc upon themselves to denounce as "criminals" the acts of mon who are os far their superiors as the eagle is superior of tho buzzard, These poor creatures denounce aa "criminals" such men as Andrew Jackson, Henry C|ay, John Rutledge, Commodore Perry and thousands of others of. the best and purest men who inhabit the civilized portion of the world. In their agony, and for the present occasion, they would dpnounce as "criminals" nqr .own Perry, and Gist, and McDuffie, and Dunnoveut, Legare, and Bbett, and Taber, and Mar grath. "Will this army corps of seraphs and cherubs tell us poor deluded creatures what they proposo as a substitute for the duel? Will they bo BO kind as to sug gest some better and more humane plan by which the weak. can bo pat apon a footing with the,strong? Will they tell us how tb'j pigmy is to meot the (nant? Or, are they such .fools os to think tho Mylenium is at hand? or that from date of their first meeting all strife and conten tion wifi cease tbrougbout tho world ?" The Work of Congress.

The negro stopped, seized e. fence rail and showed fight, but dropped it and ran again. He then stopped and. drew a pis loi. By this time other white men, at ti neted by tho firing, appeared, and thc negro, still showing fignt, fired on him.
