Mr. Mikell, of Berkley, moved that a Commit tee of Five be appointed to nom?nalo a President, five Vioe-Fresidonta, and two Secretaries, as per manent officers, wbioh waa adopted; when the following gentlemen were appointed on tbe Com mittee, vis : Messrs. Mikell, Robertson, Gibbes, Campbell, and Harrison. These gentlemen, after a few moment's d?lib? ration, reported as their nomination : Hon. J. L. Omi for President; Messrs. W. Haupton, E. H. Brown, O. W. Dudlet, and Gabbiel Cannon, as Vice-Presidents; Messrs. F. J. Moses and W. L. DePass, as Secretaries. The nominations of the Committee were unanimously adopted. Hon. J. L. Orb, after taking his eeat as Presi dent of the Convontion, aroBO and said : Gentlemen of the Convention : I thank you for the distinguished honor nonferred in aelectingtme to-presido over the deliberations of this body. Your familiarity with the amenities and courteeios of debate will, I am satisfied, make tho duties of the office by no means onerous or severe; and allow me to add, it is extremely gratifying to see so largo a representation from the various seotions of South Carolina on the preaent occasion. It is indicative of the lively in terest which our constituents feel in the great movement about to be inaugurated-a movement whoso oonseqnouocs, in any nucubie judgment,aro destinad to be vast and important. It may be un successful, and the hope it, generates, like many of the brightest anticipations wo have oherished, ?"*j- _ ___"_*.__*d? ,hn_,.ii-1? r>_i?ti?r wise nor philosophic to ccr.v. r-buforo tho c_;_t_iii"a. h which we are overtaken. It should ntihn- hn nn. duty to strivo to repair the wrong; and hence I have felt, whatever may be its resalta, now unfore seen, that we oannot take too deep an interest in the assemblage that is to convene in Philadelphia on the l-i h of the present mooth. The objeot of that Convention is to solidify all the conservative elements of the North and West in one organization, bo that when the FaU and Spring elections ensue, the vote oast by the people of those sections will be for conservative men and measures, and thereby defeat the Radioal party who have now control of the legislative dopartmeut of the Government. The issue has been fairly made between the President on his policy of reoonstrutiou-so generous in many of its essential features-and that extreme, bitter and persecuting policy wbioh it is proposed to adopt towards those States reoently engagod in war with the Nortn. As has been stated, tho Radicals have now control of the legislative department oftUe Gov ernment. . By their legislation they also con template a speedy seizure of the control of the judicial department. In one of their recent en aotmouts reorganizing the Supreme Court, they have provided that vacancies, on the Bench shall not be filled until the number ia reduced to seven ; and in view of the fact that tho conserva tive are the oldest members of that Court, they have anticipated that, in the course of human events, thsse will soonest pass away from the stage of life thus leaving the custody of the judi cial a? well as legislative department of the Gov ernment in tuoir hund?. But will they bo content to stop th_ e ? In my opinion, if, tue elections of tue North do not ouange i ho face of political affairs, and the Radi cals are successful in maintaining their ground through these elections, they will, before the first day of January next, not only possess the power, but they will uad the power to impeath the Presi dent, turn him out or ofBoe, and substitute a lead er of their own; so that the Executive department will likewise pass into their control. They have already two-thirds of Congress; and althongh it may bo that we cannot destroy the full effect of their majority, the North and Northwest may, if the Philadelphia Convention prove a success, so far ohange the political complexion of the Senate and Honee of Representatives as to enable the President to defeat obnoxious legislation by the veto power. ' It therefore behooves us to go' cordially and heariily iuto this movement and to sustain, as far as we properly oan do. the men and measures adopted. The call for the Convention is, In my ju igment, . almost entirely unexceptionable; so much so that it is neithor wmo nor politic for na to raise a point concerning it. The majority of the committee wore members Of the Republican partv, and it is to consolidate with it the war and anti-war Dem?crata that oonatitutes on o of the objects of the Convention. Let us hope that its deliberations will prove harmonious, and that the conduct and deportment of the representatives of the North and South towards each other will be basedupon the same principles that actuate.two friends who have quarrelled and become recuu ciled. Let them ignore the past and go forward mutually intent upon healing the breach' ?hat ha6 been made, and again strive in unison to make the o vin try happy, prosperous and contented. I invoke upon your deliberations all tbo wisdom tli-?t can come from on High, and trust that South Carolina will have Cause to congratul?t o you in coming herd for the purposes of* this Convention. After taking bis seat the Convontion proceeded to business. Mr. W. Robertson, of Fairfield, offered tho fol lowing resolution, to wit: "That the same parua* menta-y rules whioh governed the Senate and House of Representatives of this Blata should govern this body." Adopted. A resolution also offered by Mr. Robertson was so modified thai the yoes io this Oouvention be regardod as taken by a majority, bnt that any member might oatl for a vu-o by ?lia trio te, eaoh dlstriot voting .tho number of votes it might be entitled to, as in the Legislator^. ) iii ' ? ,- , j j. t ' Mr. E. S. Keitt, of Newberry, presented the following reaolutions, vis: That the delegates from o_ch dis trio t be empowered to nominate two dologatos to reprcaont the State at large, and four delegates to ropresont oaoh Congressional district in the Convention to bo hold at tbo City of Philadelphia on tho 14th instant, and that these nominations bo submitted to tho Conven tion, at its next sitting, for their action. Thia gavo riao to quite a spirited but friendly disouesion, in wbioh.Mosars. Hampton, Dudley, McQowan, Townes, Robebtson, Tbescot, Simons, Cannon and Byan participated ; which rosulted in the laying on the table tho resolutions originally offered by Mr. Keitt, and the adoption of others, na amendments, offered by Moanru. Tbescot and McGowan. which aro as follows : Resolved, That this Convention approves the reetoration policy of President Johnson, as oppos ed to tho radical policy of Congress, and that we accept the invitation to imito with tho Democrats of the country in the National Convention to be held at Philadelphia on the 14th mat. Resolved, That this Convention proceed forth with to eloct four delegatea from the auto at large. Resolved, That the dolegates from oaoh Con-, greasional Diatriot atin.ll elect two delegates from their reapeotivo districts, and report the soleotion to an adjourned mooting of thia Convention. Mr. Cannon, of Spartanharg, moved that the Convention bave a rocosa until 3} P. M. Mr. Simons, of Charleston, proposed an amend ment, to postpone tho hour of mooting until G P. M., which was unanimously adopted. EVENING SESSION. Six o'clock P. M.-The Convention assembled at 6 P. M. The cara having arrived, Beaufort and WiUiamBbnrg were represented by delegates; also Beveral gentlemen from Charleston arrived, all of whom reportod and registered their names. The nnmbor waa now swelled to 127. The following gentlemen were nominated te represent the State at large, viz : Hon. J. L. On?, John J. Manning, B. F. Pebbt, W. H. Tb.es oot, D. L. Wabdlaw, 0. W. Dooley, S. MoAlilei, J. B. Oastpbell, T. N. Dawkins, and James Chebndt. On motion of Hon. A. C. Gabungton, of New berry, the vote waa ordered to bo taken by Distriots, viva voce. The Convention proceeded to vote. On the first ballot, Hon. J. L. Orb, having received 141 votos, B. F. Pbbby 89, and J. B. Campbell 98, were declared duly elected. Seventy-two votes was declared neoeasary for an election. No other candidato having re coivod that number, the Convention proceeded to another eleotion for the fourth delegate, when the Hon. J. L. Manning, receiving seventy-one votes, waa declared elected. Having disposed of the Dolegates for the State at large, the members of the Convention proceed ed, as per resolution, to eleot two Delegates from eaoh.

Mr. Cohen, of Charleston, moved that tue Con vention adjourn sine clio. Unanimously adopted. So closed tho Oonvention. The business was rapidly diapatobed, and no man seemed dis posed to bore the pitionoo of his brother mem bers with windy apoeohea. Action was the motto. The greatest degree of unanimity prevailed. Tho proceedings of the Convention wero charac terized throughout by moderation of expression and the strongest conservative views. The only desire of evory one, and wo oonveraed with many, was for reconstruction and the early admission of the State into the Federal Union. As ono who waa present and* of strong oonaervatire vie we, wo invoke the N irtbern people of every party to give no oredence to the itlK-, misohievoua falsehoods whioh are oiroulated agaioet our peoplo by preju diced, crack-brained letter writers, and whioh are only calculated to mislead them to wrong us, to promote dissensions, and prolong sectional ill fooling. Au revoir. S. The correspondent of The Daily News returns his thanks to Mr. F. G. DeFontaine, of tbo Caro linian, for bia kindness in furnishing him with a oopy of the speeoh of the Hon. J. L. Omi before the Convention. State Items. The editor of the Marion Star has taken a ride into the country as far as Moody'? Mills, and has returned home cheered by tho prospects of the crop be saw on the way. The cotton, though smaller* than uaual at this season of the year, looks green and vigorous. Wherovor there was an evidence of the amount of labor essential for a successful crop, he thinks our farmers may look for a fair yield, .but whoro the grass has not been masterod, but little or nothing may be expeoted. Ho dooe not hesitate to say that Mr. 0, B. Hahel den has some corn as promising as he has ever eeen on sandy soil. The cotton crops of Captain Stanly, General Evans and Asa Godbold, Esq., givo evidence of a bandsomo yield of fruit-in fact, he is informed that the ootton plant in this section generally, though email, is remarkably well ulled with squares. Mr. E. J. Mooox's crop, to whioh he referred last wook, it is thought by gentlemen competent to judge, will average 1500 pounds to the aore. On one stalk in his' field was oountod 165 squares and bolls. He also says that tbo Rev. J. B. Platt informs him that he closed on the 22d inat., at Ebenezer Church, on Oonwayboro circuit, a protracted meeting whioh commenced on the 14th. There were 89 acecaaiona; 65 baptized; 70 reoeived in full connection, and quite a largo number of conver sions. The editor also makes a heavy complaint against the Postmaster of Marion, Mr. 0. W. McMillan, who refuses to receive or deliver bis papers. Wo learn that A. s.

At Winnsboro' there was a Aro on Tuosday af ternoon last on the promises of Mr. Charlee Cath cart. Not much damage done. Tho Nowborry Herald of the 1st Bays that an attempt wau rando last Saturday night, botweon 11 and 12 o'clock, to ure Capt. W. H. Webb's pre mises, on Caldwell street, but owing to tho salu tary effect of a copious Bhower of rain during the early part of tho night, and tho timely assistance of -ovoral neighbors, it was happily frustrated. From the Anderson Appeal wo loam that on laat Friday two horse thieves, a white man and negro, wero committed to Jail for' tho too frequent oiimo of horse stealiug. Tho evidonco or thoir guilt was conclusive. They wore followed from nearLoundesville, in Abbevillo District, into North Carolina, to Cleveland count?., whero they were overtaken and >ouud in possession of the stol.ui animals. Wo beliove tho white man confesses to his guilt. Tlie Georgetown Times mentions tho death of Dr. A. Hasoll, an eatoemed and timo-honorod gentloman, after a long and exhauatin . illness. Ho "fell asleep" Friday nis-'ht and, was buried Saturday aftornoon. Dr. H. had obtained the 8ummi honores not only of his profession, but sorvod his parish for many years in the Legisla ture as Senator. The New Orlconn Riots. riot at lofez's saloon bs a portion of the radical mod. > [From the N. O. Time* of the _9'A.) As the Radical mob dispersed from their gather ing and proceeded up Canal stroet, wo are sorry to say that a retort came from a group of gentle men who vere standing on the neutral ground whero Burgundy street oroaseB into Baroune. We aro pained to chronicle that fact, as such whito mon who were leading the mob were beneath the notice of men who bavo any respect for them selves. A negro advanced out of the ranks of the Eroc.BBion and oballenged one of the crowd to ght. Tho negro was knocked down. A scene enaued impossible to describe, Tho ranks of the procession wero thinned in a moment of two or three hundred men, who ruahed at the crowd of white men, attaoking with sticks and stones. Two of the white men ran to Lopez's saloon, ruahed through and bid themselves in the back part of one of tho upper stories. Tho crowd of negroes, agged on by white men, crossed Canal street, and in a boUomng mob ewarmod in front of Lopez's saloon. Directed by the white men of the mass, they seized a pile of flooring lumber across tho' ditch before tho store adjaoent to Lopez's saloon, and passing tho planks around, broke them into sticks, with which about twenty of the crowd found arma. Loud cries, yells, hootings and.curses sprung from tho negro mass, that every* moment grew stronger. The bar-tenders and waitera of the saloon gath ered in foroe around the front doors and barri oadod them from ti o approach of the negroes. "Tear down the house." "Sot it on fire." "Kill the rebels." "Rush in"-were some of the cries that arose from the mass. When they found out that the whito men bad escaped, the mob roformed in pro Cfssion aud left. Daring the course of all this, whiio men served as an index finger (o point out what tho rioters should do. was severely _i*_a?*_V'b?A_fcT-'-?_<i-_^In-?ie saloon timos while running for refuge. THE POLIOS. The main operations of the police on Friday night to Saturday mornine; were confined to the prevention of disorder at the assembly of the radio*, mob in and around the Mechanics' Insti tute. While the mob gathered in the locality, there was little disturbance, the nos roes bein*- quiet and orderly, putting to shame the incendiary efforts of the set of Jacobina who harangued tho mob with violent objurgations. As the moTp broke np and formed into line of procession, several disturbances occurred. In the Beloon of Lopez, corner of Canal and Dauphins streets, two nogroes were hurt by some whito men. After they had invited a quarrel they received ita result in a beating. No arrests were made, on account of the confusion which ensued, impossible to describe. Dr. Dostio haranguod the prooossion at a late hour from the steps of the City Hall. This man, who calls himself the "Bobespierre of New Or leans," advised the negroes, if molested by white men, to kill them. The conduot of onr citizens in this hour of their severest trial was commendable and orderly. Not one molestation was made at the meeting, the dis turbances ooourring in the procession. One of the drunken speakers, after Dostio had come to a lull stop on the steps of the City Hall, was pleased to throw his arms about the neok of a large sized negro and say, "This is my brother." Applause. About 12 o'clock, after tbe procession had gone up Camp-street, and as a party of nogroes wero passing down Perdido-street, some remark was made, which led the negros? to make an assault on tho party making it. The police interfered and the nogroes resisted with pistols and paving stones. Soma white soldiers assisted the police and suc ceeded in capturing eight of the negroes, but not until sixty or seventy shots bad been fired. A negro was wounded and taken to station. Whilo Officer White was attempting to quell the disturbance, he was severely out in the left arm by a colored man, name unknown. The negroes were arrested at the riot and are now in the Polioe Station. The Coroner has been notified to hold an In quost on tho body of a negro who dropped, down dead at the meeting. The ordinary casualties wbioh happened under the jurisdiction of the police are as follows : A boy by the name of Murphy, living on Wash ington-street, was severely burned on Friday whilo playing with gunpowder. The house of Judge Hiestand, on Chippiwa strout, botweon Jackson and Philip, narrowly escaped burning by tho hand of some dastard in cendiary, who sot ft on fire in three or fonr differ ent places. Luckily there was no damage done. Michael McDonald was taken to the hospital, fonnd in a sick and destitute condition. Another attempt at arson waa made, being an effort to fire Hasting's Row, near Ma. asine Mar ket. There was also no damage done in this par ticular. MYSTERIOUS RDU0RS. There are strange rumors afloat; and the in condiary langnage used by some of the speakers at the negro BUffrago and Rumo Convention meet ing in tho Mechanic?' In.titute, give oolor thereto in a most unmistakable manuor. It is wliisporod about the city that secret socie ties havo been organized, "irrespective >.f color," consisting of pomona who are determined to or?ate an armed rebellion against our legitimate and constitutional State authorities, and to maintain by violt-noe the revolutionary attempt of tbo vam furo faction lod by R. King Cutler Furthermore, t is rumored that this combination m-ken n?e of secret signs and pass-words, and that Mayor Mon roe and Judge Abell have been doomed. Wo trait that these rumors will prove to be exaggerations, yet it behooves the authorities, both olvll and militai y, to be upon their guard. We hsvo had enough of robollion; let no more of it be coun tenanced. The laws must be enforcod; the State most pre serva bor dignity, her loyalty and her indepen dence as a rnombor qt the Union. W? are certain that even tho disoreet among the Radicals must condemn the inflammatory appeals made by Dr. DoBtio in front of tho City Hall, wherein, if our informants bo not greatly mintakon, ho advised tho negroes to arm tliernselvoi- and kill without i-ompunction ant body who undertook to interfere with tho Convt'ution. Such .iiii'iiil'ary Unguago rhould not bo tolerated, mid any one who indulges in utterances of the kind should bo an en ted as a disturber of the peace. ---. ?.-? The Phllatlt Ipili? tonven' lort. Tho following timely article wo clip from the N. Y. Daily News. What should bo the great end and aim of this Convention ? What i- the uo'lest object to which it could devote ita labora ? Tho onlv true roply is -To cement together, with all p.iBh'ible harmony, all the States iti uuion undor tbo Federal Constitu tion. Who are the par tica must likely to consum mate this ill-sired end ? Aro they not, at the South, delofaatoa who would represent truly tho great wasa of the South, eo as to insure the representation of the real and gene ral eentiment? Nothing ia moro clear than that the people of tho South always considered the Federal Constitution aa tho beat rule of govern ment o.*er devised, and the subject of slavery being now excluded, tho ground of contest bad been removed, and tho moat violent during the war believe that a sacred adherence to the Con atitution ia the best guarantee >or the general wolfaro, and of course there can bo no fitter rep resentatives. Tho "Poaco men" at the North-those who urged peaceful measures, whi-jh would certainly have restored tho Union in closer bonds-ana who opposed coercion sa inconsistent with repub lican principio?, repudiated by the Constitution, und which could be resorted to only by the erec tion of a doapotism over the North, to accomplish (by tho sacrifice of liberty, of millions of lives, and thousands of millions of dol?ais, by untold suffering, d?vastation, and demoralization) that which could peacefully bo done without any sacri fice or danger to the Conetitntion. Surely these people wonld be aafo dolegatea to a convention honestly intending to restore and to uphold the Constitution in all ita integrity. The crimo of the poace men waa what no honest and candid mind can doubt waa practicable, to re unite the States by peaceful adjustment in a man ner immensely to strengthen tbe bonds of union, and knowing this to be practicable, to oppose coercion as a pandora's box. Now that, to aome extent, we can count the coat of coercion, is thora not tho beBt reason for ropentanco that the peace ful and bealing policy waa not adopted!? There oan bo no holier or botter men in tho Convention than "peace" delegates. A "graphio" New York reporter, who is ohasing Mr. Georgo Peabody over Ctnada, saya that that gentleman has gone to the Saguonay River pro vided with "all tho necessary articles wherewith to vex the lively and resistant salmon from bis chosen and aqueous home." -? ? ?
