VIOOB0U8 PROTESTS AOAD?8T THE BUPRESTE OO?F.T BILE-THE STANTON MUDDLE-A PICK? WICKIAN QUARREL-UNEASINESS ABOUT OUR ISQLISH RELATIONS. The correspondent of the Bait) moro Sun, under date of the 27th instant, writes : There have been received here by RepuMi oan members of Congress sucli vigorous pro? tests of Republican constituents against the last Reconstruction bill adopted by the Recon? struction Committee, forbidding adjudication by the Supreme Court in causes arising under the Reconstruction acts, that it is not believed the Committee will urge the bill on the Houso, and. from authentic sources, il is learned that the proposed measure will be reconsidered by the Committee and ignored. Democratic members say they prefer to have the bill test? ed bv a vote in the House, and let the result gi tb the people in the coming contest for eaident. The correspondent of the New York Herald, under date of the 26th inst., writes : The case of Mr. Stanton, it seems, is at last settled comfortably. The correspondente have proved tfp their statements touching General Grant's agency in reinvesting the suspended Secretary with his portfolio, and the cabinet is reconstructed bv and with the consent of the Senate. The President has made np his mind to tolerate the arrangement, tor the excellent reas on that he has no alternative. His only hopo is in the resignation of the obnoxious minister, and of this there is not enough prospect to ele? vate the executive thermometer even to the Mark Tapio v temperature ol cheerfulness. The men who placed Mr. s-tanton back in tho War Department designed that he should remain there. It was as much a part of the new pro? gramme of reconstruction as that wbieh con? templates invalidating the civil governments of tue Southern States, interfering with tho jurisdiction of the Supreme Court and swallow? ing np the whole power of the government in General Grant. The men who coincide with this view make daily pilgrimages to the War Department, ate in constant and confidential intercourse with its head, and he and they have a perfect understanding as to the relative obligations of each to the other. That it is contrary to the notions of honor and delicacy of Generals Graut and Sh orman for Stanton to remain is not only inferable, but has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of many; but the fluctuations of modern politics have wrought a change in the old fashioned code of honor and dignity, and office has be? come valuable for its emoluments and its coa venienoas as an aid to partisan schemes. When Mr. Stanton resigns it will be from a sugges? tive impulse that will not brook resistance, end In tho meantime he will continue to AU -.he place in the solitary capacity of clerk, with a cabinet officer's salary. The question as to who was the coward in the Chanler-Juhan quarrel has not yet been accu? rately settled. Mr. Chauler intimated 'that Mr. Julian was troubled with Mie malady of coward? ice, but then Mr. Julian retoi\ >d with a challenge for tux. Chanler to test the question tor lum? eah* at any time, and Mr. Chanler promised to indulge himself in that luxury without delay. When the House adjourned Mr. Julian hurried off nuder the protection of his wife in one direc? tion, and Mr. Chanler retired in good order by? an other. By this little escapade we oro remind- j j ed of the prowess of Dowler and Winkle, in the "Pickwick Papers," and from pr ed en t appear? ances an adjustment no less amicable than that which ?B recorded by the historian of the Pick wickians is likely to ensue in the case of our belligerent reconstrnctors. The correspondent of the Baltimore Gazette, under date of the 27th inst,, writes : There is undoubtedly some uneasiness ex? hibited in high quartets in respect to our rela? tions with Lngland. I have no doubt that if the domestic condition of either nation were undisturbed, collision would grow out ot the present complications. But England cannot afford to wage a mara time war at this time and in what sort of a situation is this country to grapple with a power like that, aided, as she probably would in the end be, by France, if not by other European governments. Still, it seems to be admitted that tho claims Bet up by this nation for the spoliation of tho Ala? bama, are not to be listened to-nor are our just complaints of maltreatment of our citizens to be regarded. The Carolinas. iricnsmr or LOT AND PROPERTY-DECBEASE OF CREME-FALSE REPOSTS AND UNFOUNDED STATEMENTS. The following is the full text of Colonel Wil? lard's letter in relation to the condition of affairs in North and South Carolina, ref err od to in THE NEVI : < f yesterday. Colonel Willard is now in char*,-, jf the Bureau of Civil .Iflairs of the Second Military District, and was on the staff of General Sickles dunns the. lime that he was in command of this department. Such letters as that which we now publish are the beet proofs that can be had of the great fact that, in this State at least, life and property are as safo as they were in the halcyon days before the war HEADQUARTERS SECOND Mn rr AB Y DISTRICT, ) BUREAU OF CIVIL AFFAIRS, [ | 1 CHARLESTON, S. C., January 22,1868. j -Messrs. <?. H. Benedict <fc Co., Ito. 31 Pine? street, New York: GSKTLESIEN : Referring to your communica? tion of the 4th inst., in which ycu stato that there are many persons who would gladly pur- | J chase and become permanent resiuents of this State, could they prudently do so; but tue statements so frequently published in the daily press of outrages, on the part of both whites 11 and blacks, have occasionod throughout the North a general belief that property and life are in constant jeopardy everywhere iii the unre? constructed States, and especially so in South Carolina, and in which you inquire a9 to the truth of these statements. I have the bonof testate that my acquaint? ance with the condition of South Carolina ex? tends back to the cdijpgicncemoul of the period of its occupation by our anny, although dur? ing that period I .was absent a tew months at the North, lu regard to both North and South Carolina, since the first ot Joly last, my chief sources of information are, the facts officially reported, and known at the30 headquarters. As to the general question of the securitv of lite .and property in the State of South Carolina, the best evidence that can bc adduced is to bo derived from the conduct of the people them? selves. They move about the cities uud coun? try in the pursuit ol business or pleasure with- I i out any marks of apprehension, and without any unusual precautions. There have been a few exceptions to the universal application ol' the statement, but I am not aware ol any such i exceptions at the present time. Tho* cities t are remarkably free from that descrip- 1 Lion of violence that is regarded as i most hostilo to the security of lile and I 1 property. Tho streets aro considered eaf? at all hours, and people ero about them with less apprehension than they would experience in traversing under the samo circumstances the atro.ta of anv of thc largo Northern cities. There has b'ccn a marked deoreise in the amount of crime committed within this State since the lirst year aftor its occupation. "On? line; 1SG5 tho preponderance was on tho side of outrages committed by whites against blacKs. During 1866 the numb?rof crimes committed by blacks against whites preponderated. Hu ring tho laut year tho class of crimeB that sprung, in 1865 aud 186;!, out of tho disturbed political relations of tho country have decreas? ed to such on extent that tho military tribu? nals, which have usually adjudicated cases of that character, have had comparatively little to do. Tho crimes and disorders occurring at pre? sent in tho two States of North and South Caro? lina aro such as thc ordinary administration of justico can take care of. If tho courts of the two States had the confidence of all classes, and tho requisite material and means for the detection and punisliment of offenders, tba | community would speedily bo raduoed to ex? cellent order by those meaus alouo. In this connection it is perhaps interesting to you to know that from the first occupation of tho State tho mildest means of preserving order have always been sufficient. As far as my information "goes, and it is believed to be accurate, since tho military occupation of those States the maintenance of* order hts not occa? sioned tho expenditure of a single cartridge. Capitalists wilf doubtless desire to know if | there is any indication of a war of races in th-s section of the country. There never has been any indication of such a catastrophe in eithor of these States. '1 he blacks, as a people, aie universally admitted to Le peaceable, good na? tured and law abiding. No motivo exists for such a collision, nor can anything ehort of class legislation and a partial administration of jus? tice bring about8UCh a result. Under tho gov? ernments that are in progress of formation no such results need be feared. The feolmg of all who are in a position to influence public action is satisfactory on this point. Borne assume that the te idoney ^f tho general dasire among the blacks for it J possession oi land, is found sufficient for a division of race interest, but this apprehension will not sustain examination. The cry for land is uot raised in Italy, France, or England, where even1 rood of available soil is occupied and placed, as a general thing, be? yond the reach of the laboring eli ss; but in a sparsely settled country, where there is abun? dant means of gratifying it without injury to vested rights. The muneuse tracts of wild land throughout theso Statos, on which the owners cannot afford to pay taxes, are a conclusive ai.s wer to this fear. The desire for land is an indication that the blacks look to industry for support, and is a cry for tho culture of domestic- life in har? mony with that for schools and education. Benanee cannot be placod on the newspaper accounts of outrages floating through the coun? try. The motive for suoh publications is mainly political, and the information is gene? rally obtained from rumor or private sources, anet is seldom verifi ed by any moans adopted by the Press to determine ito correctness. 1 have no hesitation in saying thal* there exists no foundation in fact for the str temen ts that the blacks are in an insubordine te condition. Such statements ought to bo regarded as misrepresentations, springing either from foes or from malicious moMves. Thoso who talk of a war of races cannot find out side of their own breasts either tho passions or Uiei purposes that would prompt such a stato of things. You may assure those persons at the North, who desire to seek homos in South Carolina, that they may rely on security and ample returns for all investments of a substantial and not merely speculative character in this State. I am, gentlemen, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, A. J. Wni/ARD, In charge of the Bureau of Cnil Affairs. Carl Benson and the Convention? 2LUB HOUSE ffwrnmrrtT.TTV-A KEW OSE FOB AN OLD BUILDING-APPEARANCE OF THE DELE? GATES-TBE OEQANIMATION-O 2EENNE8S NOT STUFLorrr-A SLAP AT THE BEPOHTEES. Mr. Bristed writes the folio win r letter to the Sew York Times under his usual nom-de-plume Dari Benson. It is evident that he is deter? mined to make the best of the convention; and it will do us no harm to know what is thought of us by those whose views are different from our own, but who havo no inter sst in wilful or intentional misrepresentation : CHARLESTON, S. U., Monday, January 20. To the Editor of the New York 3 .mea : I have not lately-indeed at (.ny time since the war-troubled the Times with many or long communications. But it his occurred to me that some of your readers might like to know the impression made by tho appcaranoo merely of a "mixed" cou ve uti ot apon any un? prejudiced man who went to i; with a strong reeling jf curiosity, and his eye s and ears im? partially open to all about him. An assembly of blacks and whites on equal terms, and in nearly equal nimbera, unmo? lested by Bully Rynders or any other outside barbarians, is no small novelty to an Ameri? can or indeed to any one. We have seen abroad a single man of color lionized by a fashionable audience, perhaps making tho best 3pee.cn in the room, as I onoe heard the Libe? rian Consol at thc Geographical Society in London. But the present was i very different occasion, and, more than anything which I ?lave seen at the South, illustrated tho im nenso changes which seven years have pro luoed. The oonvention is hold in the former Club Sonso. This sentimental grievance seemed to ie the worst aggravation of the whole proceed ng in the eyes of the natives; though, as the 31ub had, after mature deliberation, decided to tell its house, and had recoived its price for it, i do not exactly soe what special cause there vas for complaint. A strange . unacquainted iTith the circumstances ol the case, might sup? pose that the ohoico of locality was expressly ntended to humiliate the quondam "swells. ,'t is hardly necessary to say that there was no inch design; probably the Club House was the :heape3t building obtainable th it would answer he purpose. There is not, and never was, a lopious supply of euch places in Charleston. Dr course we should matie allowances for the itronger local attachments of the people. A ?ortherner, especially a oily-dweller, is usually jorn, wedded and buried in (or out of) three lifferent houses; here it is otherwise, and I ;an well fancy that to soo an old family man? sion occupied" by a "satrap" may reas jnablv irate on the townsmen's feeling's; but it it, rather a stretch of sentiment to attach it to a Jlub House. The large room of tho Club House having ao gallery, about a third of it was railed off for tho public. This space was almost entire? ly filled with negroes and mulattoes, onlv two jr three white faces being visible. These col ired persons were dressed in the fragmentary style common to the Charleston negroes, but /hey kept perfect order an i spat around as laterally as any white native. '1 he reporters were very literally accoramo lated within tho bar, on both sides of the President's platform, facing (he delegates. 1 )btaincd admis sion the secoud day (there was tomo delay about my credentials tho first j as i "constructive" gentleman oi the press. And ;ruly, though no stenographer, I have done a jood deal of reporting in my time, and where the races were concerned too(I) Being very ;arly I had full opportunity of watching the JclegatcB as thoy assombled. I don't know if ibero is anything significant in the fact, but the whites took the front seals, as if of right, so that, although numerically inferior to the' blacks, they made more shov/ to a casual ob? server. That many of the colored delegates were in? telligent and respectabJe-lc oking men was aotic2d by tho local papers. I can corroborate their assertion. But 1 cannot endorse their further assertion that tho white delegates wore i mean and inferior-lookiug set. On the con? trary, with only two exceptions, they struck mo as decidedly up to the average of political bodies at tho North or olsawhoro, so tar as mero looks are concerned. Indeed, tho "get? up" of the whole convention, whito and color? ed, waa so respectable that tho Charleston journals could not help remarking it; but they tried to diminish its effect by hinting that the delegates liad "got some clothes out of the Bureau. I have no reason to suppose this in? sinuation anything more than a bad joke While ou this great subject of dress, I may re? mark that the climax ol' local wrath was capped -as our popular phrase is-by the ap? pearance of a black delegute in a groy Confed? erate overcoat. This iudi-nation was of a pioco with tho Tribune's discovery last year that tho men at tho South were disaffected to '?? R?"ierDment, because eomo of them wore old Confederate uniforms. The simple fact is that these grey overcoats, though not so D?C turesque as our light blue ones, were very cosv md comely garments, and (especially when tho buttons were changed; there was no rea? son for not wearing them out, aa several of their original owners are doing, without at :acaing any political signhicance to tho act ?vlule others found their way into the market is second-hand clothes will, and were natural y purchased by any man, v.hite or black, who vanted a good overcoat, and had tho money to ray it. To return from which digression, tho memb era having assembled pretty punctually, colored attendant pushed forward an earthen spittoon, weighing perhaps a quarter of a too. The production of this national institution seemed to be the signal for coming to ordor. Tho mooting was a little green in organizing, but the difficulty was greenuees, not stupidity; very much tho some that is experienced by collegians, or other young men, in like circum? stances. The ludicrous light in which some reporters persistently review the convention's proceedings appears to mo to be chiefly due to their own vivid imaginations. In fact, tho negro being an imitative auimal, it is highly probable that he will acquiro all tho forms ol political business quito soon enough. I wish there were no greater causes of anxiety. As to the antecedents of tho white members (about which the broadest stories are confi? dently asserted), or tho capacity of the oolorod ones for legislation to suit the crisis, I sholl not venture any remarks. The subject would lead me too far, and I might bo tompted into some very heterodox observations on the wis? dom of the conventions gouerally, ono quos tion, however, I may bo allowed to ask : Ir che whites of thiB State are not represented in con? vention, whose fault is it ? Ono easily under? stands why Democratic politicians and editors keep telling thom to "lie still and do nothing." As a party manoeuvre it is beautiful. But what is to become of the Carolinians meanwhilo ? [ Their own men, Governor Orr, for instance, tell them that ..-.-?dor no circumstances can tho congrc8sion.il 1 .fislation be revorsed in less than three yea: .; aud throe more years uko the last will starvo three-fouths of the popula? tion, "without distinction of sex or oolor. ' CARL BENSON. At the French Theatre on Friday afternoon there waB a tremendous panic among the immense audience gathered to witness the last performance of tho Grand Duchess. Soon alter the commencement of tho performance smoke was observed issuing from the rear of tho'?taco, whereupon a call of fire waa raised, The au di enc ? was composed mostly of ladies, and a general stampede ensued, many ladies throwing asido their mufi's, fans aud doaks and making a rush for the doors. Some woro badly bruised, many fainted and wore trodden upon in tile ptampeae, and the house was soon emptied. The alarm was occasioned by a small side scene or.tching fire which was Boon extinguished. Mr. Bateman and Mr. Bhgfoid statea'tho tacts, when a goodly portion of the audieuce returned, and the last performance ?ff the Duchess was concluded. The conclusion of the speech of Fernando Wood, which he was not permitted to deliver in the House of Representativos, is published in the New York Sunday News. In referenoe to that portion of his speech for which he was reprimanded by order of the House, he Bays. "This language may not be parliamentary, but the gi eat necessities of the country are higher than the rules of the House. I admit that while it may appear severe, it is no more so than the occasion requires. We are in the midst of a revolution, bloodless as yet. How long it may continue bloodless God in his infi? nite wisdom only knows. Whon such ants and propositions are thus precipitately thrust upon us by the party in power and Congress resolves itself into a mob of reckless usurpers, it is time that those who represent the people and who adhere to the sheet anchor of the constitu? tion should Bound the alarm and draw public attention to the danger which is upon us. I have declared that-This is one of the most infamous propositions of the many infamous acts of this infamous Congress,' and I have nothing to take baok. Whatever evils may follow mo personally, is of little consequence, if, to'the least extent, the words I hare uttered here, serve to reach the popular heart, and attract popular attention. My language, though severe, is fully justified by the facts. " Commercial. Exporta.

SHEFFIELD SCIENTIFIC SCHOOL, ) ECOUTEEP.INO DEPARTMENT, \ YALI .COLLEGS, November 16, 1866. ) I have always recommended the Faber Polygrade ; lead Pencils as the only pencils fitted for both or? num eu Ul and mathematical drawing; but, after a i borough trial of the American Poly grad e Lead Pen? dis, manufactured by tho American Lead Pencil Company, New York, I find them superior to any pencil In use, even to the Faber or the old English Cumberland Lead Pencil, being a superior pencil for iketching, ornamental and mechanical drawing, and til the ordinary uses of a lead pencil. These pencils are very finely graded and have a rory smooth lead; even the softest pencils hold the point well; they are all that can be desired In a pen :il.
