The proceedings of the Convention were marked with wisdom, moderation and patriot-, ism, and I believe express the feeling of the great mass of those who sustained the country through ita recent trials.

If elected to the office of President of the United States, it wiU be my endeavor to ad? minister all the laWB in good faith, with econo? my, and with a viewTo giving peace, quiet and; protection everywhere. At times.like the present it is impossible, or at least eminently improper, to lay down a policy to be adhered to right or wrong, through an administration of thur years. New political issues, not foreseen, are constantly arising; the views of the public on old ones are constantly changing, and a purely administrative officer should always be left free to execute the will of the-, people,, I have always respected that will and always shan.

To the Editor of the Daily News : I find in your issue of to-day part of a letter written by, I snppoBe, Mr. D. H. Chamberlain, Attorney General elect, to* the New York Tri? bune, which contains a defence of Mr. C. C. Bowen, and a bitter attack upon " this latest reverend slanderer." Now.-s?r^?have o.canfaOYersy with either of these, mah, and can have no mo-ive which would lead nie to slander any one. Mr. Cham? berlain is ??own by his 'fruits, and Mr. Bowen, by his blocwoms; they are both redoubtable knights, anxious to serve the State and the United States. Neither has, as yet, shown the slightest ability for anything more difficult than loafing upon the skirts of the communi? ty, but being both in. the "slippery paths of youth," if they keep their feet, we may hope to hear from them in future. One word on the main question. Mr. Chamber Iain says that Mr. Bowen's record is good, and that he~is gr ossly and vilely slan? dered by the correspondent of the New York Times...Very. well. Mr. Bowen knows, and BO doe3 the "correspondent" of the Timee. IF ftfw. BOWEN HAD SLANDERED HE, AS rr IS AN? NOUNCED I HAVE SLANDERED HTM, I WOULD GIVE HTW THE BEST POSSIBLE AND F.ART .TEST OPPORTU? NITY. TO TROVE EOS CHARGES. Does this beautiful team of embryo statesmen understand? Mr. Bowen's man Friday is a lawyer (?) and-he can soon arrange the legal business. It is easy to write a denial, and as? sume the martyr role; but I am hopeful that in this case-' the, tears of: thc crocodile will not melt the heart of Congress, and that after all h " s tribulations, poor slandered Bowen will not be permitted to;?Cdown in the ancient Beat of South Carotin* at Washington. It is very proper for these men to begin, at this early oky, to manufactur?: pnhlio opinion in the Nortlu especially at^aahmgton. But, for their iiifpimation, let'"rae say, that Mr. Bowen's character arid past conduct will be cared forland exarnined "bjta. Congressional coramittee/fche moment he presenta himself at the door of Congress for admission. This immaculate ' D. H. 0." goes on in the letter,'from which you quote, to deny that the colored people opposed Mr. Bowen's nomina? tion. Mr. Greeley, in any answer to such an opponent, would say, "you he." "D. H. C." ' knows that the colored part (the majority) did oppose Mr. Bowen's nomination, and for Bil hours, by all kinds of efforts, sought the with? drawal of hi s aame. And. no w, Messrs. Editors, I have been in your city nearly six weeks, and have observed the movements oi these men. For the most part, they are as devoid of public spirit as they are of personal culture. A colored man (Cardoza) is the only educated man on the State ticket elect, and I suppose "D. H. C." may be said to rank next. - On the whole; probably they are more to be pitied than .blamed. _ I have only to wish them and you well, and record the. earnest hope that the day is not far distant that shall witness your deliverance from such inexperienced and partisan rulers; when the government will know the truth of these men .and come to yon? rescue. I have been charged with being a "copperhead," a "slanderer," a "carpet-bag? ger," Ac. 8uch euphonious epithets will pro? voke- a' smile* in -the communit y where I am known. I have always b;en, and am now, a member of the Republican patty, and the record of my name and family during the war cannot he gainsaid hy the Tribune's correspondent,' or by the Tribune itself. If I were a resi? dent of Charleston, I should steadily, pub holy, and with all the power I could command, . oppose such men as those I have characterized; and I am of the opinion that the contest would be very short and decisive, since they do not find it quite 60 convenient now, as formerly, to send their opponents to the forte for safeseep ng. W. W. H--, :. ., Correspondent New York Times. POLITICAL SUMMARY. THE REAS0N8 WHY MB. STANTON ABANDONED TEE WAB DEPARTMENT. We suspect' that the following, from the Philadelphia North American, is of Mr. Stan? ton's inspiring: Secretary Stanton's connection with the War Department has at last ended in his voluntary with drawing, and notifying the President of the fact. He construes the action of the sena? tors in refusing to sustain impeachment as an endorsement of the course of the President, which it undoubtedly is. The withdrawal takes many by surprise; but we do not see why it should, since Mr. Stanton only retained his po? sition upon the distinct assurance of the Re? publican senators that they would sustain him ii doing so. Had he not been given that ?naran tee he would have retired long since, he recusant senators were as ready as any of the others to give the required promise, be? cause it was tue belief of all that the Presi? dent's action was an open defiance of the Ten ure-of-cr??e law. Nullification is thus rendered '. triumphant.. The Tenure-of-office act is disre? garded with safety by the President, and the : attempt to vindicate the prerogatives of the : Senate against the lawless usurpations of the '. Executive is a failure. i We have said that the seven recreant sena? tors mean to desert the party, and we repeat . it. Already one of the leaders among them, Trumbull, has declared his opposition to the . bill for the admission of Alabama and other States. Fessenden has made haste to avow himself favorable to the election of Grant, but ? if he and his fellows manage to exclude the . Southern States so ab ?, loee us their electoral votes in the presidential canvass, bis support of Grant will be rather-equivocal. By the ac- , Hon of these seven renegades the 1 resident is . allowed impunity in violating the Tenure-of- , office law, and now he may, if bo desiros, go on ? to violate in like manner the Reconstruction \ laws. So impartial suffrage will go overboard, and caste be re-established at the South. Five . thousand dollars apiece for six senators to , achieve such results! How stupendously - cheap 1 AB a question of law, Stanton bad to submit to the ruling and give up his office, the law be? ing thus abandoned by tue Senate that made it. ? We behove that at least a part of the recusants . have got the price of their votes in money. , They ought now to be made responsible for the great evils flowing from their treacherous con- - THE WOOLLEY INVESTIGATION-MR. BROOKS' SUP? PRESSED STATEMENT-GENERAL BUTLER'S I CONDUCT TN THE COMMTTTFE BOOM-ABUSE AND rNTZMTDATrON -TEST III OM Y OF THE RE? CUSANT. Oar re&uers have as yet had no clear and ? corrected statement of the cbvumstances of "contumacy" of Mr. Woolley, the recusant : witness, now imprisoned in the capitol dun? geons. The following is the statement which Mr. Brooks desired to make part of bis speech in the House of Bepresentatives on the Woolley corruption case, but whioh was ruled out ol { order: On Tuesday the 19th May, Mr. Woolley at? tended m obedience to a summons. Mr. But? ler was the only manager in the room, and he assumed to administer an oath and examine the witness. Ho was rude, abusive and in? sulting, and when, in the course of the exami- : nation, the witness declined to answer eome questions pat to him. Mr. Butler ordered him n custody of the assistant sergeant-at-arms, giving him directiotiB not to permit the witness to speak to any one. Mr. Butler then called in some ot. the other managers, wben the wit? ness was.a gain brought before them. ?""Mt^Butler continued the examination in the same abusive and insulting manner, at one lime saying to the witnesa that he lied. To this the witness replied that he would not per? mit s ..ch an insult, and claimed the protection of che managers whilst in the committee room, and if such language was repeated out of the room he would claim protection from no one. Some little confusion ensued, when Mr. fintier replied that he had been hasty, and retracted what hod been said. On Wednesday, the 21st, the same insulting and abusive course was pursued by Mr. Sutler, and the testimony of the witness was not taken down as he gave it from bis own month, bnt his answers when given were modified, altered and changed by Butler, and taken down as he (Butler) directed timm to be written. At the same time witness was denied any opportunity to explain, except on one or two occasions, vftien such privilege was extended to him by Mr. Bontwell. On the morning of Wednesday, the 27th, witness sent a written request to the mana? gers, asking that he might be allowed to have a copy of bis testimony and a copy of the re? port of the managers, that he might compare them and see whether errors which were mani? fest in the published report-.arose from tbe mistake of the stenographer who took down the testimony or the manager by whom the report was made. This was denied him; that is, they gave him a copy of the report of the managers, bnt refused to allow him to Bee bis evidence, and required him to go on and testify. The witness then requested to be allowed fifteen minutes within which to . send for his counsel, with whom he might consult. Mr. Butler thereupon moved that the witness bs not allowed the privilege of counsel, and the motion -was submitted and adopted. They then put to the witness the folio wing question: "Bid you 8end a telegram as follows to Sheri? dan Shook, New York :" "My business is ad-. justed. Place ten to my credit to-day with Gillis, Harney & Co., No. 24 Broad-street. An? swer. HOOKES." To this witness replied : " Thia is a private and confidential communication passing be? tween counsel and client. It has reference to business in that relation and nothing else, and no reference whatever to the trial of ' the President, and the articles of impeachment preferred against him ; nor to the conduct or result of the trial ; nor tbe votes of any person on the trial ; nor any allusion thereto whatever." They then inquired if that waa all the wit? ness had to reply to the question, and he an? swered that it was, and requested that if his answer was not sufficiently explicit and full, he might be taken to the bar of the House to receive its orders in the premises. The following question waa thou propounded to the witness: '-Did von send a telegram to Sheridan Shook, dated 12th May, aa follows ; - The 5 should be had; may be absolutely ne? cessary.'" To which witness gave the same reply which ia set forth in full to first question above quot? ed; repeating the request then made, and sub? mitting to answer further if the House requir? ed.' General Butler thereupon Yemarkod that he would offer a resolution to place the witness in solitary confinement until the 44h of March, 1869, and witness was thereupon remanded to the custody of the sergeant-at-arms. . The witness considers that he cannot divulge matters that came to him under the protec? tion and sanction of the relation of client and counsel, and if he should make such dis? closures, under any circumstances, they can be made only when demanded by competent authority which possesses the power to pupiah for a refusal to disclose. When the authority which can punish for a refusal to disclose re? quires it to be done at the peril of incurring a penalty, the disclosure is not voluntary, but coerced, and the witness ia protected. The committee cannot punish, and it is their duty in an issue between them and witness to sub? mit the matter to the House, and lot it take action in regard thereto. Tbe Season stud tuc Crops. The reports that reach na from the sea isl? ands represent that the cotton crop, though somewhat backward owing to tho late season, is m a vigorous and healthy condition. The general testimony is that the steadiness and efficiency of the labor is gradually improving, as the negroes begin to comprehend the neces? sity of Organized labor to avert starvation. From the upper section of the State we learn that in very many settlements the yield of .wheat per acre has been materially out off by recent storms, but the area sown being much larger than ever before, the crops is more likely to be in excess than below that of last year. The rust has affected the crop more or loss throughout this whole region, hut so tar is confined chiefly to the blades; m some localities, however, the appearance of the stalks and ears threatens continued progress. It is to be hoped that we are now to have more favor? able weather, which experience teaches will effectually check thia disease and save the crops from further damage. A shrewd, intel? ligent farmer notes that the crops of some Pennsylvania and Virginia farmers, who have recently settled among us, look better and suf? fer less than the best average crops, and re? ports their mode of cultivation to be as fol? lows : The land was sown in cow peas last June ; these were suffered to grow until tho middle of September, then pastured for a month ; then broken up with a two horse turn? ing plough as deep as possible, leaving water furrows every ten feet. A top dressing of ma? nure is then applied, and wheat sown and ploughed in transversely with light gang ploughs, tho whole work being finished by the middle of November. Lu Barnwell the crops, though somewhat backward, are exceedingly fine, and promise well. Gardens are looking fine also. Tbe fruit crop in the vicinity of Aiken promises tabea very large one. It is estimated that the "Der? by farm will ship eight or ten thousand bush? els of peaches, and large quantities of necta? rines, apples, etc. Messrs. Purvis, Tilton, Schriener, Walker, and large growers, report their fruit in excellent condition. GEORGIA. The Atlanta Opinion says that corn and cot? ton in that county looks promising, though a little backward. Farmers are busily at work "catching up" from their backset by the late rains. Wheat is heading ont finely, though the rust has made its appearance on tbe blade. Hopes are entertained that it will not reach the stalk. The Elberton (Ga.) Gazette says that the prospect of the wheat crop in that section ' seems to be good with the exception of rust appearing on the blades in some localities, which is not supposed to result in much injury if it does not extend to the stem. The "stand" of cotton is unprecedented. The young corn looks flourishing. nanua. The Tallahassee Floridian says that the sea? son for crops in thal section has not been very good. The corn, however, is looking well, and an abundant yield is anticipated. A large crop bas been planted, and with good management a sufficient quantity can be gathered to pro vent anything like distress for want of bread. The cotton crop promises a good yield. The orops on the St. Mary's, Sa tilla and Crooked ? Rivers are in splendid condition. MISSISSIPPI. The Penola (Miss.) Star reports that the weather for the past two weeks hos been ver unfavorable to the growing crops, as frequent rains and very cool mornings and evenings are unfavorable to a rapid growth. At the time of writing, however, the weather was more pro? pitious ' LOUISIANA. Advices from Louisiana represent the whole Bale destruction of the cotton crop by the army worm, the fore unner of the caterpillar. Far? mers are ploughing up their cotton fields and planting corn. The worm has nppearsd al? ready in different aud widely separated parts of Louisiana; in the Felicianas, some dist nco to the east of the Mississippi Eiv-r, in St. Landry, far west or it, and ia Rapides, o.i Red River. TEXAS. The grasshoppers have entirely destroyed the ?heat crop in th') Texas counties of Bell. Williamson, Cornell and McLennan. The pests are all over Northern Texas, ai d it is feared that the .vheat crop will be destroyed through? out the entire region.

IAN.--This is now admitted by the medical profes? sion as a fundamental principle of healing science. It is wisely provided by thc human economy that whenever anything is wrong in the physical system the natural forces of tho body ore bi ought to bear to expel the disease. The great oim, therefore, is to strengthen thc natural powers. This bas been kept In viow by the skilful compounders of HOSTbT TER'S STOMACH BITTERS, which operates to give fresh vitality to all the organs of the body. The elie ct of this medicine upon the stomach, the liver and the kidneys, is prompt and decisive. The patient, who is wise enough to quit drugging and try tbe BITTERS, soon feels as if he bad taken a new lease of life, and as he continues the use of thc article he is overjoyed to find the streams of health coursing through his frame. It is prepared with great care, and its component parts are entirely vegetable. It is free from thc objections so often urged against preparations of tbe kind. Ae a MEDI? CAL AGENT, it bas no equ i, while its pleasing flavor and healthful effects have made it a general favorite It is free from all ptopertieB calculated to impair the system, and its operations are at once mild, soothing and efficient All who have used HOSTETTER'.-j STOMACH BITTERS attest its vir? tues and commend it to use. Even those who are in the enjoyment of perfect health frequently have need to have recourse to tonics ae preventives ot disease. We are never too well armed against the assaults of "the ills that flesh ls heir to." In health or sickness this tonic cannot be taken regularly without giving vitality and elas? ticity to the Bys tern.

STANT.-In 1847, tho great grand principle-of stopping the most excruciating pain in an instant, without employing such dangerous agents as chloro? form, opium, morphine, acontine, ether, Ac, was first made known to RADWAY'S READY RELIEF. This remedy accomplished this wonderful and de- J Ughtful desideratum la aU cases of external and in? ternal pato. In an instant it afforded relief, the mo? ment it was applied to the parts of the body where inflammation or pain existed-it at once relieved the patient of the most violent and excruciating pangs and throbs of pato, and imparted the delightful sen? sation of ease and comfort Every kind of pam, whether Rheumatism, Neural? gia, Toothache, Patos in the Chest, Side, Lungs, Stomach, Bowels, Kidneys, Spine, Legs, Arms, Feet, one application was sufficient to kill and extermi? nate the pain. Taken internally, twenty drops to a teaspoonful would cure, and will cure, Asiatic Cholera, Fever and Ague, Chills and Fever, Bilious ChoUc, Inflam? mation of the Bowels, Cramps, Spasms, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, and every pato that may exist to the in? side of man, woman or cbUd; this wo* Rad way's Ready Relief of 1847, and it is Rad w .y ' -> Ready Re? lief, greatly improved, la 1668. We then started it m ita mission of relieving the In? firm, pain-stricken, sick, distressed and crippled of all nations throughout the world, and nnm today it is used, patronized and revered as a household ne? cessity, to the palaces of Sultans, Emperors, Kaimos, Kings, High Priests, Nobles, as weU as in the cot? tages of the laboring classes of every nation on the face of the earth. In every war that has taken place within the last twenty years, this remedy bas been used as a preventive of malarious and infectious diseases as weU as a cure for wounds, stiff joints, bruises, accideuts,*and to relieve the soldiers from p^in. Letters from Army Surgeons and distinguished Generals and soldiers in our late war are on file, certifying to the wonderful service of the RAD? WAY'S READY RELIEF. It wiU prevent an against attacks of the worst diseases that prevail, os plagues or epidemics, and to those who are seized will st once check the disease and cure the patients some? times with, and at others without remedial assist? ance. This is Radwty's Ready Relief. Persons afflicted with external pains, or rheumatism, neu? ralgia, toothache, cramps, spasms, etc., bathe the parts affected, either by rubbing with the hands or with a sponge dipped in the REUET, and pain will cease to exist The miserable stuffs scented with the Oil of Cassia or Peppermint, sold under thc names of paint, etc., are nothing but weak imitations of RADWAY'S BEAD Y RELIEF, sent forth to the world under our oldradvertisements of 1847, tts, They are but imita? tions, and wiU die out in a few months.

The doggere advertisements they pay hungry Bohemians to write for them. 1 he ex? istence of these miserable imita' ion s of the great and good Beady ReUef of Dr. Badway wfll be brief. Old patrons of Radway's Ready Relief are daily coming back, and so it wiU ever be. Radway's Ready Re? Uef will ever stand the first tue best, the cheapest an 1 quickest remedy for the instant cure of pam in the world.
