March 27.-Noon.-Stevens' universal suffrage amendment applies to all the States; but the penalty for its infringe? ment applies only to Alabama. Its defeat is considered certain, as it would give Alabama to the Democrats. But the passage of the bill, as reported, making valid, tho new constitu? tions and inaugurating the State officials, is apprehended. Violent cross purposes exist, however, and the proceedings of this afternoon are speculated upon at every corner. Im? peachment speculations are rife, but the actors in the play are reticent, and no reliable indica? tion or suggestion bas transpired. THOMAS STELL IN THE CABINET-A FUTILE AT? TEMPT TO BRING UP THE GEORGIA IN JUNCTION? THE ARKANSAS CONSTITUTION-THE WHISKEY BUSINESS. WASHINGTON, March 27.-Evening.-There was a prolonged Cabinet session to-day. All the members, including Thomas, were present. In the Supreme Court, Judge Black moved to take up the preliminary injunction in the Georgia case, but the Court declined the pro? cess, it only having been sei ved upon parties within immediate reach. The further hearing of the case this term is considered improbable. The Alabama bill waff crowded out in the House t>day. It will come up to-morrow in regular order. Thc Badi cal Committee have advices from Little Bock indicating the success ol' thc Ar? kansas Constatation. Internal Bevenue to-day $589,000. The Conference Committee on the tax bill, have agreed to retain the whiskey clause, in? flicting penalties for selling below the rate of taxation. This is the point on which the Sen? ate hitched. Congressional. WASHINGTON, March 27.- -IN THE HOUSE, the Supreme Court bill was passed over the veto by a strict party vote, and is now a law. The report of the Conference Committee op the Tax bill was adopted. A resolution de? claring that the House would do no business until the impeachment trial was over was offer? ed, causing great confusion. It was then withdrawn. IN THE SENATE, the bill forbidding national banks from paying interest on balances due to other banks was discussed. The debate on the report of the Tax Bill Committee was post? poned. The Georgia Democracy. MACON, March 27.-The Democratic Central Committee adjourned this morning. They adopted resolutions urging the people to op? pose, by all lawful means, the ratification of the new constitution, and stating that whereas that constitution may be imposed upon the ? people, notwithstanding their opposition, it will, in that event, be of vital importance to have good and sound men to administer the j State government. They, therefore, in view of the refusal of the Hon. Augustus Beeves to be a candidate for Governor, and in view of ; the want of time to hold a nominating conven- '? tion, and the embarrassments growing out of ; disfranchisement and other causes, malting 1 impiacticable a strict party nomination, do ' advise the Democrats and Conservatives of the ( State to cast their votes as a unit for the Hon. I David Irwin, the independent candidate now j in the field. They express confidence in Mr. j Irwin's integrity, ability and devotion to the < State, and believe that he will atlminister the ? government solely in the interest of the , people. 1 The committee urge their friends through j out the State to bring into the field in every dis j tri? good and true men tor the legislature) y selecting in all cases those who are registered 1 voters.

Our correspondent in Greenville informs us that, at the adjournment of the Court of Gen? eral Sessions on Tuesday last, a Democratic meeting was held pursuant to notice. Governor Perry made a speech of great force, denouncing the Radical constitution and Rad? ical measures, and insisted on the importance of organizing th? country to co-operate with our friends in the North and everywhere else in overthrowing them. Rev. A. C. Stepp also addressed tho meeting, in a clear and pointed speech, in favor of a combined and strenuous effort to save the country from negro domination, for our own and their gcod as well. This gentleman is a man of pure character, no politician or mere office-seeker, and is destined to do goodin these troublous t imeB, by exerting his abilities and talents as a -oublie speaker, in opening the eyes of the people to the dangers of their sit? uation. The resolutions for the formation of a Dem? ocratic Club, submitted by Governor Perry, were adopted, and a committee appointed to organize it, and to submit nominations of can? didates for the legislature, and, at a future time, for other officers for the district. The following resolutions, submitted by Gov? ernor Perry, were adopted with enthusiasm and with the most decided demonstrations of approval. Resolved, That we put in nomination the following gentlemen : For Governor-General Wade Hampton, known to and loved by the whole State. For Lieutenant-Governor-General James Conner, admired by ah for his gallantry, patri? otism and ability. For Adjutant and Inspector General-Gene? ral M. C. Butler, distinguished for his gallan? try and public services. For Secretary of State-General Ellison Capers, the pure, gallant, Christian gentle? man, and present incumbent of the office. For Treasurer-William Hood, Esq., who has filled the office for years past with distin? guished ability. For Complrcller General-Captain S. L. Leaphirt, the present incumbent, who has discharged all the duties of his high office to the entire satisfaction of the public. For Congress, in this Congressional Dis? trict-Colonel Samuel McAliley, of Chester, well known to the State as an ablo and learned lawyer, a wise statesman and pure senator, ever faithful found amongst the faithless, in all emergencies. At night the Radical Union League party held a meeting in front of the postofficc. It was attended by a large number of negroes and a few white. Radicals. Speeches were made by J. M. Aflen, by a North Carolinian named Tracy, and by a colored man named Wilson Cook. No general attention was paid to the meeting, and it adjourned about eleven o'clock with a great deal of yelling and hoot? ing on the part of the negroes. The following are the officers of the Green? ville Democratic Club: President-W. H. Campbell. vice-President-Dr. James Harrison. Executive Committee-Governor B. F. Perry, Gen. W. K. Eusley, J. W. Stokes, Esq., Dr. S. S. Marshall. Dr. J. M. Westmoreland, Col. G. F. Townss, Hamlin Beattie, Esq. MARLBORO'. A meeting of the Republican Union Nomi? nating Convention was held in Bennettsville on Monday last. It was convened ty circular, and is supposed to have had its origin in the collateral labors of the late Chariest: n Con? vention. At eleven o'clock A.M., the delegates from the various election precincts as well as others, principally persons of color, proceeded to the schoolhouse, half mile from the courthouse, and at the hour of twelve, meridian, returned in good order, and occupiedttbe court room. After a few introductory remarks by H. J. Max? well, stating the object of the meeting, Mr. A. H. Knight was called upon to preside, after which Mr. James T. Grant and H. J. Maxwell, p. c., were appointed secretaries. The meet? ing, after organization and prayer, proceeded to nominate their candidates for the House and Senate; whereupon Mr. H. J. Maxwell was nominated for the Senate, and Messrs. John G Grant and J. P. Stubbs for the House, After which thev, the candidates, were unanimously declared to be the choice of the convention. Graut and Stubbs re? served their wind. Maxwell, however, spoke at length, endorsing the new made con? stitution, and painting in an unpleasant light and with opprobious epithets the constitutions of 1790 and 1865, reminding the assembly that the convention of 1865 had brought about universal suffrage, asserting that had partial suffrage been allowed, that the Reconstruction acts of the 39th and 40th Congress would have been silent in tho tomb. He prc fessed to have been bern a Souih Carolinian, but educated in a Northern clime; that he buckled on his ar? mor for the freedom of his color; now that they were free, he and his party would defend his inalienable rights, if necessary, at the point of the bayonet, but this course would only be the last resort; that he thought the remaining vestige of battle could only be nurtured hy those safely en ?consed from perd during the late strug? gle; that he counselled all persons of bis color to be polite and respectful; when insulted not to return evil for evil, but lisregard unproved insults from any one-that Democracy had brought oui- troubles upon us; iud he here cautioned his friends to beware of that damnable party-it is fraught with their ruin. The name of South Carolina, John 2. Calhoun and Toombs, were the special ob ects of abuse and complaint. He intended to ;ee that corporeal punishment and hanging .vere done away with-they smacked of bttr oarism, and in this enlightened age we should je more tender of human fife. He wanted the :ountry to be represented by honest and deter? mined men-those that did not fear to do igh t - that there was intelligence under colored ?kins-and he here alluded to Fred Douglass, he former slave of a Maryland planter, as well is others, who had become prominent m th ? iterary world. Some portions of his remarks, f true, might well have been omitted. He ex? pressed bis regret to see so lew white persons Cresent-that ili3 invitation was to all - for here really were but a very few whites in the .oom-for a long time but one from Benuetts rille, which will give some idea of the utter in liflerence telt. The couree pursued by the convention, says AV correspondent, will bring about opposition, 'or all the nominees are from members of the .ociety known as the Union League, two whites iud one black. Had they adopted the best policy and gone beyond their political circle, the parties militant, would have been some? what, reconciled, that they really entertained the good of the country, &?. The meeting adjourned -after Mr. Maxwell's address, perfect order and apparent good feel? ing pr wailing. ABBEVILLE. The Cokesbury Democratic Club has been organized by the adoption of a platform of principles and the election of officers. F. A. Connor, Esq., is President. The following resolutions were adopted: Resolved, That it is in the opinion of this club that all white persons should avail them? selves of the opportunity to register, and that the Democratic or constitutional party should vote at the approaching election ordered bv General Canby. It was also Resolved, That the Democratic organizations in the district be requested to send delegates to meet at Abbeville, Saturday. March 28tb, for the purpose of making suitable nomina? tions for State and district officers. Tin- President's Counsel. PEN AND ENE SKETCHES OF THE HEN WHO ABE TO 3TEET THE TUP HACHEES BEFOSE THE SAR OF THE SENATE. The Washington Star gives the following brief and interesting sketches of the great lawyers who are to conduct the President's case during the impeachment trial: Mr. Stanbery, who resigned his office as At? torney-General to appear for the President in this trial, sits at the head of the table. Should the President be acquitted, Mr. Stanbery will be re-appointed to the Attorney-Generalship, the office being kept vacant meantime; but should the President be convicted, why then Mr. Wade will have something to say in the matter, and somebody else will be mace Attor? ney-General, quite likely Mr. Matthew H. Car? penter, of Wisconsin. Mr. Stanbery is the most distinguished looking of the array of counsel for the defence-tall, graceful in bear? ing, and with a countenance indicative of thought and sagacity. His features are of the eagle order. Mr. Stanbery was formerly a Whig in politics, but for the last half dozen years has beou a Conservative, though never a partisan in any sense of the word. The proper spelling of his name is the bother ot all com? positors. Our foreman finds it necessary to placard the Star composing-room as follows: "Spell Stanbery with one S, one T, one A, one N, one B, one E, one R and one Y." Next at the table is B. R. Curtis, of Boston, presenting in his short, compact figure and rather bull doggish expression of face, a mark? ed contrast to Mr. Stanbery. In personal ap? pearance he somewhat resembles President Johnson, from which fact aroBe the report so irenerally circulated on the day of the com? mencement of the impeachment proceedings rhat the President bad appeared at the Senate n person. Mr. Curtis maintains a leading .nnk in New England for ability and learning. Be was for a tune a Justice of the Supreme Court during Mr. Fillmore's administration, out resigned that place to return to the prac :ico of his profession. Like Hr. Stanbery, he ?ommence? a Whig, and is now a sort of Con ?ervative Democrat. Mr. W. M. Evarts, of New York, is a lawyer ike looking personage, thin, small of size, and vith features giving the idea of quickness and icuteness of thought. Mr. Evarts is a decided Republican in politics, and one of the foremast nombers of the New York bar, Mr. Evarts was i leading Republican candidate for the Senate o succeed Mr. Seward in 1861, and was warmly urged upon Mr. Lincoln by many distinguished itizens for the office of Chief Justice when it jecame vacant by the death of Judge Taney. The fourth of the President's defenders is Ir. J. S. Black, of Pennsylvania, a Democrat rf the strictest school, who was Mr. Buchan n's Attorney-fJeneral, and afterwards, on the esiguation of General Cass, his Secretary of ?tate. His abilities have long been recognized t the White House, and popular report has ssigned to him the authorship of many of the blest State papers of President Johnson, and specially of those veto messages of the Prcsi lent that have been more successful in seizing ipon weak points in acts vetoed. It i-? probable, lowever, that Mr. Black has had much less lo [o with tho preparation of these papers than as been supposed; but undoubtedly his ad ice and suggestions have had great weight rith the executive. In person Mr. Black is ill, raw-boned, angular in feature, and is said 0 bear no little resemblance to Lord Brough m. As a lawyer he stands in the first-class, nd be is noted for that audacity and fertility f resources which serves a lawyer better in aany instancee than all hiB learning and ex erienee. Mr. Black was not present at the pening of the proceedings to-day. Hon. S. Groesback, ot Ohio, who appeared o-day for the first time as one of the counsel or the President, is a lawyer of fine stand ?g in the West. He was in the Thirty evonth Congress from Ohio, and in politics is , war Democrat. His appearance indicates orce and self-possession. Lastly, there is Mr. T. A. R. Nelson, of Ten lessee. Mr. Nelson was in tho early part of be war an earnest Union man, and was elect- . d to the United States Congress as such, rom his district in East Tennessee, in August, 1 861; but being taken captive by the rebels on ' tis way to attend the following session of Con- ; ress, ne recanted his allegiance to the Union, nd threw the weight of his influence thence orward in favor of tho rebellion until the nd. As Military Governor of Tennessee, Mr. ohnson was pretty severe in his denuncia- ' ions of the political course of Mr. Nelson, and : 1 is noted now as a curious reverse of circum- ? tances, that Mr. Nelson should now appear : efore the Senate as one of Mr. Johnson's ad ocates. The conceded* ability of Mr. Nelson mong those by whom he is best known, has 1 oubtiess caused hie retention by the Presi- i lent as one of his counsel. In appearance : Lr. Nelson is rather solid than brilliant, and ie peculiar deliberate manner in which he annotates his words, while drawing upon his ; ead the blessings of the reporters, tends to . lake his speaking monotonous and tiresome. ; Judging from externals, Messrs. Stanbery nd Evarts will do the scalpel work of the trial, : od Messrs. Curtis, Black and Nelson, the edge-hammer business. MR. DICKENS' RELATIVES TN CHICAGO.-It '. jems, after all, that the statement that bar?es Dickens had sent $5000 to hie needy ster-in-law in Chicago is without foundation, he Chicago Tribune says: Mr. Augustus Dickens married the daugh ir of a Mr. Phillips, an English merchant, [e came tvith his wife to this country, and en aged in meicantile business at Amboy, in us State. The venture proved unfortunate, ti3, with little means left. Mr. Dickens, with is family, removed to this citv, and entered ie land office of the Illinois Central Railroad ompany. He erected a house on a piece of :ased ground on Noith Clark street, and when e died, last year, left hie family little or noth ig beside the house in which they still live, or a considerable period previous to his death, is stated that Mr. Dickens' relations with his istioguished brother were not intimate, lough not positively unfriendly. Augustus earu from his brother very seldom, though ho ivited correspondence by frequent letters. Thc death of her husbanef left Mrs. A. N. 'ickens, as has been shown, iu an embarrassed indiiion. Her lather dying soon after, and elay ensuing in the settlement of his estate, bien was by no means large, she, with three nail children, had before her a future dreary QOUgh. When Mr. Charles Dickens visited this coun? ty she wrote him, tendering him the hospital y she had to ofter, in case he should visit lis city. His reply is stated to have been ex .emely formal. He replied that he did not now what arrangements his atrent (Mr. Dol y)Tiad made, and that his coming to Chicago as uncertain. Since then it has been learned lat Mr. Dickens will not visit this city. Mrs. Dickens lives in a small cottage, on ?nted ground, on North Clark-street. With er live Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence, the former a ook-keeper on a small salary, and Mrs. Law? ence, an own cousin of Mr. Charles Dickens, ?id his only blood relation in this country, ex ?pt the children of bis now dead brother, [rs. Dickens is now in poor health, and is rostrate upon a bed of sickness. 8ho has not een concerned, directly or indirectly in the ublication ot the facts here recited. s>he has lade no appeal to any person for aid, nor will lie do so. -The Memphis Avalanche says that through he result of the recent elections, the State of 'ennessee has passed out ot the control of the nglo-Saxon race in that State, and under the ontrol of that of the African. There aro in ennessee 140,000 white voters and about 100, )0 colored voters, and yet under the infamous iws and the system of terrorism enacted and stablished under the Brownlow rule, this egro minority is enabled to control nearly rery office in nearly all the counties of the tale. ??TN OT1CE.-FOR THE ACCOMMODATION t Correspondents, an authorized Postoffice messen? er, will, until further notice, be found daily (except undays) at the hours given below, at the office of the ity Railroad, corner of East Hay and Rroad Streets, ) receive and convey to the Postoffice letters and pe? ers inte^Csd for the mails, viz : For the South Carolina Railroad Mails-Augusta, avannah, and Western, from 8 A.
