August 1.-In tho Surratt trial to? day, Mr. Merrick resumed and concluded his ar? gument for the defence. Tho following wcro his closing remarks : There has been blood enough shed in the country, and it was now time that it should oe ase. No man had greater horror of tho crime that had resulted in tho murder of Abra? ham Lincoln than himself. Already four have been hung, and others are suffering. Three yearB there was in this city a happy household sit? ting beside a bright household Aro. There eat a mother, and a sister just budding into woman? hood, and beside them a young man just reaching manhood. He would havo the jury rom : ru ber the changes that have come over that scene. The bright fire is extinguished, the mother sleeps in a felon's grave; the daughter, burdened and broken-hearted, drags out a wretched lifo; and the son is here before you on trial for his life. May Almighty God so guido your judgment and epfightea your conviction that the remembrance of the day and of your verdict may hereafter and forever be a sweet and pleasant recollection. ' Mr. Bradly will make a short address to th? jun? to-morr?n-. A delegation of Alabamians waited on the Presi? dent last evening, and urged the removal of Gen. Pope, on the ground that his administration ot affairs in District No. 3 was equally as obnoxious as Sheridan's. The President merely stated that he would make a note of the grievances. Admiral Farragut officially reports to the Navy Department his arrival at Cherbourg on the 14th ult., at which date ho assumed the command of the European squadron._ R? pabilo n Convention ox* Virginia. RICHMOND, August 1.-This morning, at an early hour, the neighborhood of the African Church was filled by about 3000 blacks, awaiting tho opening . of the doors, and the streets were alive with others coming to the place appointed for tho meo ting of the Convention. The Republican headquarters and the hotels look hvely with politicians arranging matters for tho day. At ll o'clock the doors of the church wero opened, and the building was instantly filled, still leaving about 2000 blacks outside. Up to this timo very few Of the white Republicans, recen My ap? pointed by County Conventions, had made their appearance. The whites present, about fifty in number, being chiefly delegates who had attended *? tho April Convention. A motion was made inside to adjourn to the Capitol Square, and the crowd outside, mistaking it to be earned, hurried up to that point. Mr. J. W. Hnnnioutt made a short address to those inside in favor of adjourning to the Square. Ho counseled harmony in the deliberations of the body; for they wore this day looked to by tho whole country, and by hundreds of thousands of blacks, whose fathers had looked prayerfully for? ward to such a day as this. The rebels of Rich? mond and their press were looking joyfully for a disturbar co in the Convention, and no wanted them di "appointed. This was a mass Conven? , ti on, and ho wanted all Republicans represented in iL Thoaa who could not endorse the Republican' platform adopted by the Convention "or April, might g(> home, as they wero not wanted here. Any man who came here to break up the Republi? can party in Virginia was a scoundrel and a nypo- ? cri to, and would meet the odium he merited. Mr. Tuttle, of Alexandria, moved the appoint? ment of f itv able bodied men to clear the ground and keep order for the Convention at tho Capital Square, which motion being earned, the Conven? tion adjourned. Those who first arrived at tho Square found a Conservativo delegate , addressing, about one thousand blicks; he protested against three or four men ruling the Convention, or the overawing of the Interior delegations by snob an immense -crowd from Richmond. The delegations would cederse tho April platform if they could only hear it. A voice-' 'You would have heard it if yon. had boen here in April." An announcement was then made thal the Con? vention was assembling on the other side of tho Capital, and some of the audience left. Another Conservativo rose and commenced pro? testing against prescribing any man now for nis past political opinions. ? The Republican party was not, he said, strong enough in the State to throw away, such aid. itt waa not"strong enough in the North either. Look at General Butler who did more than any other man at the Charleston Con? vention to bring on this war. A voice here cut the speaker shoit by announcing that the crowd must walk around to tho other side, and they left en masse, jeering tho speaker as they loft. On the other aide was present the largest as? semblage ever seen in Bichmond, with a consid? erable sprinkling of whites. Amid, a good deal of confusion, caused by the immense crowd, Mr. John Hauxhurst, of Alexandria, was chosen .temporary Chairman, and Charles Whittlesley temporary Sec? retary. A recess of two hours was had to give time foi-tba Committo, formed of one from each delegation. The diff?rent delegations met under tho trees in the Square. ?Jn the meantime the other wing had printed and distributed the following band-bill: "REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION. "The delegates to the State Convention of un? conditional Union men, called to meet in the Afri? can Church, of this city, at 12 o'clock M. tc.day, will meet in the Ball of the House of Delegates, thia evening, to perfect the organization of the Republican party of Virginia. Every delegate is requested to be prompt in attendance. None other than regularly appointed delegates will be admitted into the Hall. (Signed) THE COMMITTEE OF ARRANGEMENTS. RICHMOND, August 1, 1867. During the recess several short addresses were made, all of them relating to Botts and his dique and tho proposed Convention called by the hand? bill. Botts was denounced as desiring to make the Republican party of the State subservient to bis parity or break. There were loud cries for Botts, and a proposition was made to send a com? mittee to invite him to explain his position, bnt it failed. The Ber. Mr. Gcrens then made an ad? dress, and the Convention formally reassembled about 5 P. M. The Committee on Permanent Officers reported in favor of appointing all the old officers of the April Convention, and recommended that tho plat? form of that Convention be adopted without alter? ation. The report aa to the officers waa adopted, and Mr. JohAHauxljurst was declared permanent Chairman. The recommendation as to the' plat? form gave rise toan excited debate. Mr. Butts, of Norfolk, said if this Convention, wh ich was terme-1 a mass meeting, adopted the platform, it would have nothing to do but go home, and if they dil that, the meeting held by the other wing to-night, calling itself a convention, would remain in se? si?n two or three days, adopt a platform, appoint an Executive Committee, and the Republicans would go into tho campaign with two parties, which would oe ruinous. He was followed by the Rev. J: W. Hunnicutt, who urged the propriety of adjourning until to? morrow, at 10 A. M., in order to gi vesiko other wing, who had not attended this meeting, time to come in. If then they would not come tho blame would be upon themselves. Several motions were made to adjourn and failed. Great confusion pro. railed around the Speaker's stand. Messrs, Baker and Sterling, both white- at? tempted to address the body. Baker declaring that he would speak as the meeting had adjourn? ed, and Sterling taking tho opposite. A oolorcd Sergeant-at-Arms seized Baker to put him out, and a row seemed imminent. Tho platform waa adopted without a dissenting voico, and tho moot? ing was declared to bo adjourned until 10 A. M. to? morrow. To-night the appointed mooting of tho Repub? lican Convention at the Capitol did not take place. In its stead a number of the members of to-day *? Convention appeared, and organized a Convention in tho halla of the House of Delegates, with Fields Cook, colored, in the Chair. Several made speeches complaining of the action of the Convention to? day as horrid and unfair. Mr. Orenshaw, white, of Henrico, complained that Franklin Stearns, who had been appointed by that county delegation to represent them on the committee on organiza? tion, had been rejected. R. D. Berkley (colored), Radical, of Alexandria, denounced the way the Convention was conducted and the country delegations crowded out by the Richmond crowd. It was. bo said, a premeditated affair, as the State Central Committee stood in tho back door and arranged matters, while the right? ful delegates from other parts of the State were kept locked out until all was ready. , He protested against the mooting to-day; it was no Convention, and should not bo colled so. He wanted all classes and evorybody represented at a Convention, and hoped the colored men would see. that such a one was held. He wanter) to hear what Mr. Botts had to say. Ho did not intend, nor did the colored peoplo intend to be lod by Mr. Hunnicutt or Mr. Botta or any one clso who want? ed to use them for the purpose of getting office. A committee was appointed to wait upon 3lr. Botts and see if he would address tho raoetin" to? night, an invitation which Mr. Bott3 deolinod, though it is understood be will aotlresa tho meet? ing to-morrow morning. It is stated by influen? tial Republicans that the meeting called for to? night did not take placo becauso nogotiations aro in progress which will avert a split in tho party. Caucuses are being held to-night to arran go f?r to-morrow. The platform drawn up by Mr. Botts, and which was unanimously approved by the Couservntive wing of the party last night, asserts that seces? sion is treason and treason is a crime; advocates free speech without licentiousness; tho payment of tho public debt and repudiation of tho Con? federate debt; a liberal system of internal im? provement. Tho following is the last paragraph; "General amnesty, and restoration to all civil and political rights of the rank and file ot the army, and to tue great body, of the peoplo, who were misled and. seduced into tho war by more artful and wicked mon, or who were forced by the conscripci?n or otherwise; exclusion froin all political power hereafter to those who wero instru? mental, either by speaking, writing or acting, in brillging on the war, by which this State was rc duced to division, humiliation, ponury and ruin, as unfit custodians of the public honor and general prosperity of the State. This is nothing, and nothing less than they would do to all opposed to them wno have committed no crime if they had j Northern News.

As he is one of the leaders cf public opinion in thc Union, and one of the high priests of the* party that rules the coun? try, a degree of significance attaches to his utterances far beyond their intrinsic merit. Ile began by stating that he takes a hopeful view of public affairs ; that he had always done so. "We are to have a united country, com? prehending more than is now within the bounds of the country. We have carried the flag up to the North Pole on one Bide of the continent, and mo ny years will not pass away before it will also go there on the other side." Mr. W. certainly is hopeful, though we are not quite sure that we understand his geographical prophecy. Does he mean that we shall arrive at the North Pole by sailing in a due southerly course? If so, it will be a feat, we helicvc, hitherto untried. Mr., WILSON then, In brief and general out? line, adverted to the struggle through which the nation has passed ; said that it was inevi? table-that it was one of God's wars; he accepts it as such, and accepts its results. He thcu continued: "It has recently been my for? tune to travel for four qr five weeks through thc rebel states, and as they invited me to speak to them, 1 said just what I thought. I held them responsible before man and God for every drop of blood shed in this country, for every life lost, for eyery dollar expended. I spoke to them plainer than I ever spoke even to the people of Massachusetts ; but I tried to do it in a spirit of kindness that 1 really felt. I pitied their misfortunes, They were more severely conquered than 1 dreamed of. I tell you here to-night that thc people of that sec? tion of the country put intq the contest all they had of blood and of treasure, and they were defeated, utterly annihilated, their powers gone. *, * * I trust that the nieu of the North, who can afford to be generous as well as just, while they have resolved that treason shall never more away the councils of thc country, will bo kind and generous, and forgive thc faults of their erring countrymen, *...*{* * I make the prediction that eight or nine, and I think nine, of those teu States will not only comply with tho terms and conditions Congress has laid down, hut will elect men who can take the iron-clad oath, and will send men to thc Congress of the United States who will think, speak, and act. * * * Old Virginia, this very autumn, within ninety days from this time, will put herself alongside of Vermont, Massachusetts and Ohio, as a strong, liberty-loving, progressive, Badioal State of the Union. South Carolina wiH fol? low. Other States will do the same." Next he indulged in a philippic against thc Democratic party; how they lcd the South into the war, then abandoned it in thc hour of its trial. Then, coming back to the South and her people, he says: "l'or one \ have it not in my heart to pursue the system of confiscation, or any other systems that shall bear harder than those that have alrendy been adopted to bring them into the country and make them a part of the country, 1 don't want an Ireland or Po? land in America. [Applause.] But I want Free States, where every man is the peer of every other man-where ovory man, no matter what blood may course through his veins, no matter where he may have been born, is a man whom God made and for whom Christ diod, nnd who shall possess equal rights with every? body." There is a great deal more about the strength of the Republican party, the invinci? bility of Congress, thc impotence of ANDREW JOHNSON, freely interlaided with figures, known SUMMARY OF EUROPEAN NEWS. BY STEAMSHIP TO JULY 17. Tho City of Boston, which left Liverpool at 5 P. M. on tho 17th and Queenstown on the 18th of July, arrived in Now York on Monday morning. The steamer England was to have sailed simul? taneously with the City of Boston, but owing to tho storm which prevailed, she mot with somo damage os she was leaving bor dock, and would probably be detained. Tho Sultan, tho Viceroy of Egypt and tho Belgian volunteers continued to be much "lionized" in London. On Monday tho Sultan, accompanied by thc Prince of Wales.and a brilliant suite, paid a Btate visit to tho Boyal Italian Opera, and afterword wore present at ? splendid feto given by the Duke of Sutherland, at Stafford House, at which tho Viceroy was also present. On Tuesday the distinguished party visited the Military Departments at Woolwich, and in tho evening were present at a grand musical and pyro? technic festival at the Crystal palace. On Wednesday (the day tho steamer sailed) tho grand naval roview at Spithead was to take place m the presence of tho Queen, the Sultan, and a host of distinguished guests and functionaries. Including sixteen gunboats of two guns each, the number of vessels of war to take part in the re? view was fifty-one, carrying 1089 guns. The combined military and volunteer roview at Wimbledon Common, on Saturday, was to be on a largo scale, and the Sultan was to be present. The Lord Mayor and the Corporation of London had presented, in a gold casket, a complimentary address to tho Viceroy of Egypt, recognizing the facilities given to trade and traders by the Vice? roy, who made a suitable reply, and pledged him? self to encourage to the utmost the commercial relations of the two countries. The Orango anniversary did not pass over en? tirely without disturbance. A demonstration took place at St. Helens, Lancashire, on tho 15th, and much rioting and bloodshed ensued. For a time thore was a complete reign of terror in the town, but quiet was soon restored. A capturo was made in London on tho 13th of another Fenian leader, known as Gon. Foriola. Ha is an Italian by birth, and was lately a General in the Federal army. Since then he has been ono of the principal loaders in the Fenian movement, and is an intimate friend of Stephens. He is also inti? mate with G .ii. Halpin, Col. Kelly, and other lead? ing Fenians. Ho was captured on a warrant issued by the Irish government, and would be sent to Dublin to be tried beforo the special commis? sion. Ho had been on tho Continent keeping out of tho way for three months. Interesting debates had taken placo in the Corps L?gislatif on the policy of tho government. . Tho Moniteur do l'Armoe publishes a report from Marshal Niel to the Emperor, followed by an Iinpeiial decreo re-establishing tho twenty-three batteries of artillery suppressed in November, I860. Tho same paper denies a rumor that it was proposed to hold an investigation into the conduct of Marshal Bazaine while in Mexico. Signor Ratazzi is expected to visit Paris at tho end of July, to arrange lor a loan of $24,000,000 on the church properties, which, it is believed, is to bc raised by redeemable bonds, and not in the form of rentos. In the Austrian Lower House the Finance Min? ister m&do a detailed report on the financial situa ation of the Empire. He reviewed the unhappy situation of the last few years, recapitulating the financial measures that had been executed, and stated that tho present debt of Austria was 3,046, 000,000 florins. Tho Minister then passed to an examination of tha Budget of 1867, and de? clared that tho Hungarian Ministry bod both tho power and the will to meet tho por? tion of tho financial contributions falling upon Hungary. He regarded the prosent financial situation, takon as a whole, as unfavorable, but novortheless hoped it would improve. Tho settlement of the Hungarian question, although difficult, would yet be carried out, since the neces? sity of it was recognized. Its basis was justice and an equal division of burdens. Economy alone was of no use if self-government was not carried out. The taxes could not bo increasod, but must bo equally distributed. Reforms in overy department of tho State were urgently required. Austria had begun to effect the alterations by strengthening herself in her relations, and would quickly recover from her difficulties. The Nicolai Railroad bas been sold. The pur? chase money will be raised by the issue of G00.000 obligations of 125 silvor roubles each, bearing four per cent, interest, and repayable in eighty-four years. Tho issue price will be sixty-one por cont. The London Star publishes tho following: "Im Sortant intelligence from Crete has just ro?uujd ie Greek Consul-General in London. It is con? tained in a dispatch dated ?thens, July ll, which states that Omar Pasha, having disembarked at Castlo Franco, advanced toward tho insurgent camp in the mountains. He found tho insurgents at a placo called Khama, evidently well provided with arms, ammunition and provisions; a battle ensued, whioh resulted in tho precipitate retreat of tho Turks. Their loss amounted to 500 killed and wounded. A Russian frigate brought tho news to Athens." ^ The vino disease is appearing in tho north and south of Portugal. Tho question which was pending between tho American Legation and the- Portuguese Govern? ment, respecting tho capture of Joaquin Silverta, an American citizen, residing in Paris, on the charge of compliciiy in tho recent forgery of Bank of Portugal notes, has boon amicably settled. Sil veria returns immediately to French territory in a Portuguese war ship, fA terrible earthquake has occurred at Bjokja, Java. Numerous lives wore lost, Conversation of a Party of New Torie La? dles with Mrs. Brigham Young, Jr. A lady correspondent of tho Now York World reports a conversation between a party af ladies and Mrs. BRIGHAM YOUNG, JR., at tho St. Nicholas Hotel. Tho letter ?B piquant and interesting, and, without vouching for its truthfulness, wo copy the following paragraphs: Now, this wife question being the ODO we are particularly interested in, in fact tho ono object of our visit, we mado the best of our opportunity af putting questions. "Now, Mrs. Young, did you ever Bee a wife really, truly, unmistakably happy who had to aharo nor husband's affections with another woman or other women?" wo asked, iu a tone of great eagerness. She playfully said some? thing about real, true, unalloyed, unmitigated happiness being a rare and unexceptional thing. Was ahe a diplomatist? was.that the way of turning our attention from tho subject in hand ? Farther conversation proved not, Site asked : "Aro all the married gentlemen of your acquaint? ance blind to all the beauty lying about them, or are they proof against it, and do they all live beau? tiful, exclusive lives ?" Of course, we admitted tho little polygamie tendencies of gentlemen in socie? ty-bow could we do otherwise, when it is well known? She asked: "Do their wives know it?" "YOB, sometimes it comes to bght; often they sus? pect it when it is never proved ? but thoa what they don't know don't hurt thom." "Do you think that '.'-wp think that everything that hurts the husband hui is a true wiio, and none of you will Burely maintain that it does not injure a man mor? ally to bo guilty of dec cit-of systematic and s us t ain od falsehood. *<Yo think that it would affect oven his children's children, and his furthest neighbors, for not only hos overy act its rays of influence, but Ids moral attitude is affecting others for good or ovil, Whether ho sleeps or whether ho ploughs. Now, inasmuch as a mas is not exclusive in his tastes and it is for wiso reasons that he is not so-we must not try to make him confor~n to our idoa of his neods or his destiny at tho risk " making him so weak as to give in to us, qr so can aa to de? ceive us." "But man mustn't make * conform to his id jus of our needs and our desti \" said tho pretty little Miss whom wo roforr'v to beforo. "Man does not do it my dear," repl'ou 9, Yoting. "Woman's sphere is dostined, hy n. ro, Tho civilizations of tho world arc unanin? on that point, no nmttor on what else Ihey may i ir; hor uphero is power; her destiny to replci.. h tho earth. This, if women would only realize it, is a high and noble destiny. It is the ono ambition of the Mormon wifo to bo a mothor in Israel. Our children aro all pledges of love to our husbands, and jewels in our crowns of honor an wives. "But, aro not the W?VCB of one mau "oft.n jeal? ous ul each other ?" asks tho irrepressible young Miss. "Sometimos; but it is not a feature of our domestic life," Madame replies. VTho wives of each household aro as sisters-sisters in tinnily and in faith. They sometimos indulge in little playful rivalrios as to who will get the first kiss, or who can pull j?m or coax him away from the otil? ara; but as a rulo they always givo prccodenco to the first wifo. Tho ladies of every gentleman's household aro not only affectionate ono to another, but they are courteous to a point of etiqueto not often witnessed among the ladies of tho best so? ciety hoie," Ono of tho ladies asked if their politeness was not thc result of despair-if they worouotso "sub? dued" that acquiescence to oven*thing or anything waB natural. Sho replied that they all entered tho state ol' matrimony'knowingly; that no force or persuasion, beyond'what lovers wore wont to em? ploy all tho world over, was cvor brought to bear on any one; that tho demeanor of women was about tho samo alter that it was before nmrrhgo; if it was subdued first, it, as a rulo, continued so, if tho woman remained without children; if she be? come a mother, she was very likely to assort her? self. That life in a community of industry liko their's was not just tho ono calculated for senti? mental moodiness and saint-like subdued airs. They were too practical for that; and besides tho only women who might at all feel themselves injur? ed were the first wives of convorl s, to whom the thing was strange, and who, preparatory to leav? ing tneir own country, made theil- husbands prom? ise ihat they would never tako unto themselves any other wives. These men, under increased, light, and sustained by public eontimcnt, and led on by pubiic example, often insisted on their rights, and so convinced their wives as to make them W'Ming ; but it was but natural to suppose that among such diversity ol people and of nation s some of them, not so well grounded in tho faith, would afterwards regret naviug given their consont-but oven their regret wore off in time. On the whole, take tho Mormon settle? ments through and through they presented a greater amount of happiness than did Gentile settlements of equal or greater advantages. The cause of thia was doubtless three-fold first, that tho people were united religiously; secondly, the households were individually so united; thirdly, the publio opportunities for amusement, recreation and exercise are so great, and aro made so prominent. Tho theatre ?B a placo of nightly resort. The schools occupy a good deal of the time and attention of tho people, for children aro a 'feature' of the place.

All the ladies in Utah ride; tho woalthior ones sport on tho avenue with four in hand; somo even manage a tandem team.

Concerning herself, tho lady said-an 1 she was so modest wo could not got her to Bpoak of herself half onough-but she did say that she was just on her way home aftor a five yoars' slay in Europe, durin? which time her tlvo youngest children wcro born, and whero she hid her husband all to her Bolf-but she counted tho days that must elapse beforo she could got to her beautiful homo beyond tho mountains. Yet on her very arrival, other wives would run to her husband for lovo, would clumor playfully but pertinaciously and eagerly for attention, and that bo could not bc a bit more glad to see them than sho will bc. Arrest of thc Hon. J. P. M. Kp ping. United States Marshal. At 10 o'clock last night Magistrate KANAPAUX arrested United States Marshal J. P. M. EPPING, from information roceived that a hostile meeting was contemplated between C. C. BOWEN and him? self. It was rumored during thc day that a duel would result from tho communication in the Mer? cury, and tho civil authorities felt justified in mak? ing tho arrest. Officer LEVY .arrosted Mr. EPPINO at the corner of Broad and Meeting streets, and he was immediately taken to tho De? tective Office. At first ho indignantly pro? tested against this action, asserting that it was unlawful, but finally wroto to Genoral CLITZ who immediately answered tho note in per? son, and stood security for Mr. EPPING, who was then released from arrest. Tho dotectivos woro searching for C. C. BOWEN to a late hour, but had not succeeded in capturing him whon wo wont to prose. As duelling is strictly forbidden both by tho laws of tho State and of the United States, the at? tempt to break the pooca was cloarly unlawful, and tho action of tho Magistrate on the premises justifiable.

C., July 13,1867. J SENOR MONOADA : Lear Sir.-Alter duly considering your cause of complaint against Mr. Lan cu, submitted by you to us, we havo concluded that it would bo best for you to address him a note, which is tho surest and shortest way of satisfying your mind as to his intentions. It should be conched in such lan? guage as to avoid, as much as possibly every ap? pearance of feeling or hostility on your part, at tho same time that your object cannot bo mis? understood, and, if Mr. Lanen ia unconscious of having done yon wrong, it can do him no harm to say so. If, on the contrary, he has done you in? justice, intentionally, it is proper that you should know it, and no ono has as good a right to inter? pret his own actions aa himself. Such a course as the foregoing should be gratifying to him, for, a gentleman is, or should be, always pleased to havo an opportunity to mako amends whero he has dono wrong, or to satisfy the party whon ho has in? jured. Besides, it will be the moans of preventing future altercations, whioh might lead to unpleasant results. Havo tho kindness to show this to Mr. Arthur P. Lining, and if he concurs with our view, he oan preparo tho note. Very truly and respectfully, M. C. BUTLER. W. P. SHINGLER. . ^ B. H. RUTLEDGE. CHARLESTON, July 24,18G7.
