The Presbyterian Convention-Adoption of
a Das i s of Union.
"PHILADELPHIA, November 9.-The Presbyterian
Convention adjourned to-day, after recommending
the holding of similar Conventions each year, and
adopting the following basis ot' union :
First. An acknowledgment of tho Scriptures
of the Old and New Testament to be the inspired
Word of God-the only infallible rule of faith and
practice.
Second. Tnat in the United Church the West- 1
minster Confession of Faith shall be received and ,
adopted as containing tho system of doctrines
taught in the Holy Scriptures.
Whilst the committee recommend the foregoing :
basis of doctrine, they lo not wish to be under- i
stood as impugning .the orthodoxy of the Heide]- ,
berg Catechism aud the Canons' of the Synod of
Dort.
Third. That the United Church shall receive ,
and adopt the Presby:erian form of Church gov- i
ernment. !
Four h. The Book of Tualms, which is of Divine ?
inspiration, is well adapted to the state of tho
Church, in all ages and circumstances, and should
be used in social worship. But as various collec?
tions of Psalmody aro used in the different
churches, a change in this respect shall not be re?
quired.
Fifth. That the session of each church shall havo
the right to determine who shall join in commu?
nion in the particular church committed to their
care.
The committee recommend the adoption of the
following rtsolutions, vir:

churches, in their supremo judicatories, to appoint
a committse of ->vo eaoh, .which ehall constitute a
joint committee, whoso duty it shall bc to meet at
a time and place to be agreed upon, and procoed
with all convenient dispatch in an attempt to form
a bat 's of union according to the principles of this
report; which basia they shall submit to the
churches for their consideration and adoption, it
being understood that this i? not designed to in?
terfere with the pending negotiations for reunion
between two of the larger bodies represented in
this convention.
Second. As there is so much agreement among
all the Caurches here represented, in all essential
matters cf faith, discipline and order, it is recom?
mended that friendly and fraternal intercourse be
cultivated by interchanjo of pulpits, by fellowship
with one another m social religions meetings, and
by communion with each other at the Lord's table,
subject to the regulations of each particular
branch of the Church.
Third. That in ca^e the above paper should bc
adopted, a Committeo be appointed to lay this ac?
tion of tho Convention bet'o^e the highest judica?
tures of tho various branches of the Church here

CHABLFSTO.V, S. C.", November 3.
The ball has opened. Thc ncgroos have carried
Louisiana, Alabama. Georgia and Virginia, and
they will certainly carry South Carolina. There ie
eoino chance, thc*papers tell us, of a fuir fight for
thc supremacy in North Carolina, but I doubt it.
Thero is, I behove, a greater apathy on the sub?
ject of reconstruction arnon*? tho white people of
the Second Military District than anywhere ehe.
?When the Congressional Act paased, last March,
there was apprehension and dismay, especially
when the Act was read with tho President's veto
message as a commentary. Still, the people (I
mean the white people) were genei ally disposed to
"accept the situation," to "organize under tie
Act." They set to work to study out its complex
mechanism, to calculate how many were disfran?
chised by its provisions; end many of the foremost
citizens,'either in public meetin gs or through the
vehicle of the press, sigrfified their acquiescence,
and exhorted their fellow citizens to conciliate the
"colored element," and thus oudeavor to work a
peacetul restoration ot tho Stato. Many there were
whe had been in favor of the adoption of the How?
ard Amendment, but who, not finding public
opinion ripe for it, refrained from nuking known
their views rn this subject. Thoso and others fa?
vored organization under tho Reconstruction Acts.
Active measures were, of course, expected on the
part of the Radical negroplulists hero and else?
where and the most zealous endeavors to preju?
dice the negroes against the Southern whites ; ont
still we thought that the militan- power would in?
terpret the acts ot Congress not to the advantage
ot the whites, but at least fairly and witlio.it pre?
judice. In this, howover, wo were much mistaken,
and so likewise were we also in the expectation of
a conserva ivo middle party. Tho failure of the
latter, however, is perhaps due to the former.
Congress, as is well KUOWD, passed thre^ sepa?
rate acts of reconstruction, and tho provisions ol'
each successive enactment are more stringent, so
far aa thc ''late rebels" are concerned, than tho
one preceding. Nor is this all. The private inter?
pretation given to these laws of Congress by tho
soveral military conimaudrs iu every instance went
beyond the law itself. As there has been consider?
able method in thoso strained interpretations, and
moro concert than coull be expected from accident
we are lcd to inquire wlicnco tho inspiration came.
Who construed the acts ? Was it General Grant
or some Congressional junta?-Mr. Schenck's com?
mittee, for instunce -or the Judiciary Committee,
or individual SeDato?s ; or did thc five command?
ers borrow from each other'.' Whoever ia respon?
sible for tho consiructbu of tho Reconstruction
Acts, they were in no single instance that I know
of "construed liberally."
Il were easy to substantiate this statement by
giving a list of "general orders," but this is not
the tune to review thc administration of our late
commander. General Sickles has passed from the
stage of action. No interest attaches to his name
or his deeds. I may, however, give you, ore long,
for the truth of history, an examination into his
public acts, as well as an inquiry into some of the
reasons why he was so signally unpopular daring
the entire period of his sojourn with us.
o this unequal and illiberal construction of tho
acts is due, m . large measure, the present unhap?
py and altogether abnormal state of affairs in the
South. All of us who calculated the number of
disfranchised last Spring soon found that we had
reckoned without our host-the District Comman?
der being tho said host. Citizens were refused
registration on every conceivable kind of puerile
pretext, for which no shadow could be found in tho
acts of Congress. Thus I know of a case of a staunch
Union mau in ono of .he upper Districts of th is State,
who had been loyal all through tho war, refused reg?
istration because ho had a son in the Confederate
army. There were many cases of jpjis kind. So law
vers were excluded, magistrates, notaries public.
A mau who forty-five years ago was a commis?
sioner ot cross roads or of tho poor, or of a
public school board, could not bo allowed to
register. More flagrant injustico than all of these,
however, was tho ruling of General Sickles that no
foreigner could register who, after having beoome
naturalized, volunteered into tho Confederate ser?
vice, unless he was naturalized over again. In
sh rt, ever}' pretext was resorted to to throw ob?
stacles in the way of the white citizens, and every
facility afforded tho negroes at the registration
boards. Great in monee was exerted through the
Union Leaguo to impress tho negroes with the im?
portance of registration. At these secret meetings
designing agitators had the whole field to them?
selves. The ignorant, credulous, and excitable
negro here was the subject ol' promibe, cajolory
and threat. "If you go to the registration board
and tho polls you'will ?et your forty acres; if you
do not, imprisonment, fine," and what not. Thore
waa no one to gainsay all this, and the negroes had
tho additional incentive of an assured immunity
from all tho conactiueuco J ul tho idleness Incident
to his new found political career. Geueral Orders
No. 65, of General Sickles, assured him that any
one who attempted to "discourage" him from re?
gistration should te punished scverelv by tho mi?
litan- power. With such a clause a? a text, we cnn
readily see what a liberal construction tho zoalots
and designing partizans who manage thc puppet
work of the League would be likely :o put upon
it. The consequence has been that negroes every?
where lott tho plantations and haunted tho regis?
tration precincts by days and weeks, carrying
wrns, creating disturbances, Jind neglecting all
their allotted tasks, to tho dotrimont of tho inter?
ests ot their employers, and all this they did with
perfect impunity, encouraged, therefore, to pro?
ceed to greater lengths next time. That the wire?
pullers caused many of these negroes to register
several times at different precincts, so as effectual?
ly to kill off any possible waite majority, there can
Be no doubt. And this was comparatively oaey of
ac omplishment. Few of thc negroes had names;
in largo cities but few of them were known to the
"challengers"'-supposing any such had been
posted to preserve the purity of the ballot. It was
not so. The negroes were raroly challenged,
whether thoy wore fifteen oi twenty-one; whether
they lived in tho election district or not; whether
Mhad registered elsowlinro or not. AU these
questions on which tho registrars thought
not to bo too curious. We, consequently,
have a larger number of negroes registered boro
over 5000-than ever resided in the city, even
when its population waa much larger than it is at
present. And all these oxp-dieuts would now ap?
pear to have been iu vain, for thero is uo opposi?
tion. The white nag is not entered, and the sable
coll runs over tho course and carries oil' the stakes,
Serliaps. Our Radical friends havo slightly over
one their work. They have killed off tho "rebel
element" so effectually that they are beginning to
get alaimed at their :oo easy victory.
Thero was in this city ample material for a res
Eectable Con^enativo party of both whites and
lucks. But by the manoeuvring of the extremists
these have been paraiyzod or disgusted, and now,
as by general concert,' all desist from any further
participation in tho matter. Mr. Epping, the
United States .Marshal of this State, one of the
first who was actually engaged to organize the Re?
publican party in this citv and State, has long
vainly dreamed of a conciliatory policy that is to
unite whites and blacks and carry tho State for tho
C mservatives. At a recent Convention held in
Columbia-what furl know not-some Conserva?
tive resolutions of Mr. Epping were voted down:
and since then I believe even he is disoiichanted
of his hallucination about thc immense influence
he was going to exert, b db at tho head and tito
tail of his party, among the magnates in Washing?
ton and with Pompey, Quash anti Ctesar on the
plantations.
lhere aro very few white peoplo in this Radical
ring. Tho negroes have learned to distrust them,
as they well might, when thoy could not but see
what stuft' thoy were made of. There is scaroely
a single respectable whito man, of cither past or
present, respectability, belonging tj tho Leaguo in
this Stale, orto tho Republican party. Tho Freed?
men's Bureau agents --Whittouioro, Pillsbury,
and one or two others-ar-) tho leaders of this
business. Colloctor A. G. Mackey und Mr. Fred?
erick A. Sawyer, Collector ol' Internal Revenue,
both aspirants for office, are understood to oo
operate with the party, but have touched thu un?
clean thing but daintily thus far, and many ot
their colored brethren entertain gravo doubts in
regard to them, "Are thoy sound on tho goose V"
If so, whv did ' thoy not identify themselves with
us from the first ?
Now, as to the colored leaders hereabout. Fore?
most ia F. L. Cardozo, A brown nm lotto, a Presby?
terian preacher, since the close of the war a teach?
er of freedmen in this cit>. Ho is a native of
Charleston-born free, however-obtaiued tho ele?
ments of his education in a school kept by two
young gentlemen of this oily, at a time when your
F.adicalfriends insist on believing it was a capital
offence to teach a negro to read. He went North
about the aga of seventeen, r.nrt subsequently to
Europe, where he flushed bis education at Glas?
gow. At least SO goes the story. 1 cannot say
whether it is true or not. Ho is certainly a man of
some cleverness; but, as the king among < ho poets,
his faculties ?tad attainments receive ? locutions
appreciation by reason of his being ft colored man.
A white man of the same talent and education
would attract no attention whatever, lint by
virtue of his color he will certainly yo to Con?
gress- i. e., "if reconstruct iou goes through."
There are several other negroes hero, native and
Northern, more or less glib of tongue, and moro
or less looked up to ia consequence. The nomi?
nations for tue Convention h p. r> beeii made in
caucus, and five out of the nin.' nominees aro col?
ored. To the credit of General Scott, Assistant
Commissioner of tho Freedmen's Bureau, be it
said that he has. as far as 1 can seo, carefully ab?
stained from all interference with politics,' not
oven countenancing these meetings with his pres?
ence. He hts, moreover, decapitated Wbittemorc
and Randolph, a white and a colored .Methodist
preacner. who wee officers of the Bureau, for
being politicians over zealous.
There ha- been uo organization, nor even e ffort
at such, anywhere in tho State, among the whites.
I see, however, by tho papers that a Conservative
Convention is to meet in Columbia, on the Gili in?
stant; whether or not anything will come of lt,
however. H would not be easy to say. I fear it is
too late for anything else save the utterance of a
solemn protest to the whole scheme of Congres?
sional rccodstraction, and st ill more to the unequal
method in which it has bien camed out.
The Radicals have no organ in South Carolina.
There arc two negro papers published here, it is
true, the Leader, a poor, miserable rag, edited
(sic) by a preacher of the African Methodist
Church, Mr. Cain, all the work done on it bv ne?
groes. Tho other ia tho Advocate, tho organ of
the Methodist Episcopal Church mission here.
The latter recently obtained ollicial recognition
from Mr. Macpherson, and had thc printing of tho
United States laws awarded to it, even though it
C., MONDAY MORNING-,
is only a weekly paper, and of very small circula?
tion. The other paper is not yet nominated; nono
'.loyal" euough. Either the rads have been un?
able lo get tho money necoseary for a paper, or
oise they havo concluded (and not without reason)
that it was unnecessary-that the colored majoritv
was too secure here to need such aid.

GRANT'S RADICALISM-WENDELL PHILLIPS TO BE
PROPITIATED-NEGBO MILITAI? ORGANIZATIONS
THE FE ABS OF THE SOUTH-?JO CHANGE IN THE
CA! INET-THE REA80N8 WHY.
A telegram daied Washington, November 7, to
tho Baltimore Gazette saya :
Weeks ago I wrote that the Radicals upon the
heel of their defeatB would pince Grant's "gnat
name" in tho foreground as an onset. Tho very
mon I mentioned as those having him in leading
strings have authorized a publication which ap?
pears in this morning's Chronicle, verifying oven1
material fact I then stated. W ashburn, the veri?
table "man Friday" of Grant, Ilawlings, his Chief
of Staff, Logan, his prospective War S?crotarv, au?
thorize Forney's public declaration of the General's
perfect acquiescence in the Radical programme
w hatever it may be. When I upoke of this move?
ment my statement was mado upon specific infor?
mation from a reliable source, and I now sav, upon
the same authority, that Grant has authorized thc
military Junto which has him in charge to go a
great aeal farther, even to the extent of getting
tho vote of Wendall Phillips I It is tho veriest
humbug that evor was attempted to be practiced
this pretence of doubting his real position. Tho
trick is a counterfeit, clumsily copied from the
plate used in 1848-with this difference, that old
Zack was in moro honest hands than those DOW
manipulating General Grant.
The official order of the President directing tho
general of the army to disband (not disarm) un?
authorized military organizations, is construed
hero as referring exclusively to the District of
Columbia, and to include white as well as negro
companies. No action has been taken in respoct
to similar combinations at the South, where it was
manifestly most required. I know, personally,
that numberless applications have been made to
tho Government to increase tho military torco
there to prevent imminent outbreaks. Tho neces?
sity of immediate action has been made plain as
day, but tho excuse is ever ready that no troops
can be spared.
At the very moment (Monday night) when tho
President was issuing his order to Grant to sup?
press lawless military combinations, there waa
passing inside of his own portals a procession of
negroes aimed to the teeth, with arms and fifes,
defiantly vociferating in his cars their exultation
at his prospective despotism.
1 haye excellent authority for Haying that tho
Vresident has definitely abandoned the idea of
changing his Cabinet, and lt is very much doubted
in intelligent Democratic quarters whether any
change at all, at this late day, would Borve any
valuable purpose. I learn, however, that this
chango of purpose ou the part of the Executive
cannot be attributed to more capriciousness on
his part. On the contrary, the difficulty seems to
be thin: If the President should replace his pres?
ent advisers with men of the same political and
moral stamp, it would only be a repetition of the
fable of the fox and the flies, and lead to no good
result, political or otherwise. On the other hand,
if he should seek in the Democratic and Conserva?
tive ranks sounder material, the difficulty would
arise as to the matter of acceptance. Since the
elections of Ootober-to say nothing of those
more recent-the "outs" seem to prefer remaining
whoie they aro for the present, being suddenly
impressed with the necessitv of a "searching
operation" in the way of "reform" hereafter, lt
is very clear, in short, that the general opinion
here is that it would be next to impossible for the
President to get a suitable Cabinet from the ranks
of the Democratic Conservatives.
THE NEGRO MILITIA COMPANIES IN THE DISTRICT
POSSIBLE REJECTION OF THE NEGE O CONSTITUTIONS
OF THE SOUTHERN STATES-JTKAT IT IB SAID THE
RADICALS WILL DO-SENATOR TRUMBULL DISGUST?
ED.
WASHINGTON Novomber 8.
It seems to be conceded that the President's
order to "disband" the negro military organiza?
tions in this city will not bo executed. I learn,
reliably, that tho negro captains haye only been
requested to pesist from public parades. A cor?
respondent of Forney's Philadelphia Press, wri?
ting from Washinglon on tho 7th, says truly
enough, that "several of these companies met
to-night as usual at their drill rooms, and were
drilled as though nothing bad occurred," Ho fur?
ther states, no doubt, with equal truth, that "it is
certain that thc freedmen will not submit quietly
to the enforcement- of tho order," as they intend
to resort to the courts; and adds with unblushing
impudence that "it ia also certain that th?
freedmen will not allow their organizations to be
broken np unless the white organizatiens of the
same character, of which then.- are a number in
Hie Diatriot, are also disbanded." In addition to
this I have that General Emery, the commander
here, threatens, if forced to execute the order of
the President, he will disband all companies in the
District beating arms, such as the hheutzenfest,
Fenian Circles, fcc Ac.
In reply to an official inquiry of the Executive,
General Grant reports that the whole number of
troops, white and black, stationed within tho De?
partment of Washington (embracing Maryland,
Delaware, tho District of Columbia and two Vir?
ginia counties), amonnts to nineteon hundred and
a bastion over. Of these forces the principal part
aro stationod in and around Washington.
Prominent ROBtlernen from various parts of the
Sou h now hore are sanguine that tho State Con?
stitutions (so called), when presented to the voto
of tho people will, as a general thing, be rejected.
Particularly. I am assured, this will be tho case in
Virginia. What course Congress will adopt in that
contingency cannot be definitely known; but there
are many leading Radical* here who predict that
stato Governments will be authorized under them
by another "supplemental" law, notwithstanding
this rejection.
Senator Trumbull, who is now here, has, in con?
nection with different individuals, so expressed
himself as to create the impression that ho has at
last in reality become disgusted with the doings
and threatening of the rotten and fallen party
with which he has heretofore b?en acting, un?
doubtedly against his better judgment.
MEETING OF CONGRESS-PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE-DIF?
FICULTIES OF THE ADJOURNED SESSION-LF.OAL IN?
CONSISTENCIES FOR CABINET CONSIDERATION-THE
TROOPS IN THE DEPARTMENT OF WASHINGTON.
A Washington dispatch to the Baltimore Sun,
dated November 7th, says :
It has been btincuuced that the President is on
gaged upon a message to Congress, to be present?
ed upon an early day of the adjourned session
that convenes on the 21st instant. This announce?
ment does not appear to have any valid founda?
tion. There is, in fact, good reason for saying
Mr. Johnson has not commensed tho preparation
of any sue i message, and that it is not weil settled
that he will communicate to Congress the infor
malion of thc stato of tho Union, at all ovents
until some time during the regular or December
session. It should bo borne in mind that tho No?
vember session can last but eleven days, including
Sundays, and that thore will be but nine working
days before tho regular constitutional December
sossi n must commence. The Constitution pro?
vides that Congress shall assemblo at; least once in
every year, and such meeting shall bo on the
first" Monday in Docember, unless they shall by
law appoint a different day. Congress has not ap?
point Jd a different day, but has enacted "that m
addition to tho prosont rogular times of meeting,
there shall be a meeting," etc., etc. Tho coming
November session must therefore adjourn by noon
of Monday, Docomber 2d, and commence a rogular
session at that hour. If tho President shall have
any moaauxo that ho deems necossary and
expedient to reoommend to Congress for then
consideration, they will be communicated al
about the usual period, probably m December.
Under the existing provisions of the laws thoro
aro several difficulties presented. If Congress
shall pass an Act even as early as tho 21st
dav of November, tho Prosidont cannot hold tho
bill for tho constitutional term of ten days, during
tho November session, because after excluding
Sundays, there can bo but nine days left; so, like?
wise, in the tenure of office law, which provides
that tho President shall report the suspensions of
officers and appointments of their successors
wit in twenty days after the first dav of tho next
meeting of the Senate. By tho time that half of
these twenty days shall have expired, the Novem?
ber session must cease by limitation of law. S ich
aro some of the legal inconsistencies which, it is
argued, havo resulted from the recent congres?
sional legislation, and which, it is understood, are
to be considered in Cabinet to-morrow, with the
view of determining, if possible, what course tho
Executive shall adopt to best meet tho require?
ments of tho Constitution and the purposo of late
Acts of Congress.
The report of Gcnernl Grant, in answer to the
inquiry of the President, what number of troops
are stationed within tho Department ot Washing?
ton, shows that the whole force amounts to but
little over 1900 men, all told, in the States of Ma?
ryland and Delaware, tho District of Columbia and
two counties in Virginia.
THE PRESIDENT'S RESOLVE.
Tho Washington correspondent of the Boston
Post says :
Developments during the past few dave show
that President Johnson ia perfecting bia plans for
the programme as stated in this correspondence
some wcoks since, and which at tho time attract?
ed tho attention ot tho wholo country. It is now
ascertained that the r^grn regiments "of the Grand
Armv of the Republic in this city are to bo dis?
banded by peremptory orders from the Govern?
ment. lt" was hinted in tho Radical organ here a
short time since that the service of these troops
might soon be needed, and, as tho President sus?
pects, to aid in thrusting him from tho Executive
chair. This he checkmates by requiring thone
dusfcv regiments to be disbanded. But Mr. John?
son does not stop herc. An order has been issued
requiring the Commanding General to report to the
President the number of United States troops now
garrisoning tho fortifications in and around Wash?
ington, thoir locality, and thc names of all their
officers. This is an impon ant move, and will enable
the President to lay Dolore General Sherman, upon
his arrival here early n ?xt week, the precise con?
dition of his new command, and the avail?bio force
he will havo with which to resist any attempt of
parti?* neting "outside of the Constitution' to sub?
vert the form of oui- government. Things are
cryetalizing rapidly, and the correctness of my
foi mer dispatches will be verified in every parti?
cular.
NOVEMBER ll, 1867.
Effect of thc Elections in New York.
Thc New York correspondent of the Philadelphia,
Ledgor, writing on Tuesday, say?:
Nothing is talked of to-day but tho results of
yesterday's elections. While I write this the un
terrified* aro firing salutes in the Park, Union
Squaro and other places, in honor of these
victories. The Woild and Eveniug Express
offices have the national colors displayed, and
altogether things thoic and thereabouts are
nothing if uot joli v. The Republicans are dis
,iOs-2d to take tupir bad fortune with as much
philosophy as they can muster. "Let the Demo?
crats laugh," aay\ thev, "it is so long since tho
poor fellows have had an opportunity to enjoy
themselves in that way that it would be a pity
to spoil their fun," &c. Down iu Wall street
the talk for tho momeut turns moro on "majori?
ties" than Harlem or Michigan Central. Tho De?
mocracy exultingly point to the fact that gold is
down and bonds up, as a practical proof of tho fa?
vorable influences the success of their principles
and their policy at the polls upon the material in?
terests of the country, but; of conrso, thc Repub?
licans don't see it in "that light.
There is reason to believe that o^ of tho very
first results of the defeat of tho Republicans in
this State will lie a serions split in their organiza?
tion. Raymond, Weed and Bryant, to-day, all de?
clare that thc party must become more conserva?
tive if it expect the'support of thc poople in future,
and that to that end it must not hesitate, if need
be, to cut loose from the Greoleys, the Wendell
Philhpses, and the Tiltons altogether. They in?
sist upon it, also, that Congress shall drop thc
impeachment business and pay less deference to
tim views and opinions of Mr. Thaddeus Stevens.
The Grooleyites, on the other hand, contend that
thc only salvation of the party lies in a more radi?
cal direction than the one which it is now pursu?
ing; also, it was the milk-and-water conservatism
or Raymond, Weed & Co. that produced the great
disasters of yesterday. The motto of the class
stdl is, no concession, no compromise, and no sur?
render.
The custom house peoplo don't know exactly
what to make of it all. They sav they aro all Con?
servatives now, hr.ve no sympathy with Radical?
ism, and would like to hold on to 'their offices, if
nobody has any objection.
