Nsw YOBS, July 6.-The vicinity of Tam? many Hall waa the scene of intense excitement this morning. The police arrangements which liad befe made proved wholly madequate to keep back the Barging cxoird which blocked ap the way in front of the building to so great an extent that the delegates found the utmost difficulty it forcing an entrance. By half-past ten o'clock, however, the delegates were gene? rally in their seats, and the Convention was ??died to order at a quarter of eleven o'clock A. M. After prayer by the Ber. William -Quinn, the reading of the journal bf Saturday's .proceedings was dispensed with. A delegation from the Working Men:s Con? vention wpre invited to ? seat. - The committee on permanent organization reported the name of the Hon. Horatio Bey* .moor, of New York, for President oi the Con? vention'. (Groat cheering.) The report also .named a Vice-president and Secretary from each State, and closed with the recommenda? tion that the Convention should adopt for its government the rale? of the Democratic Con? vention of 1951. The -report was adopted and the committee was discharged. The committee appointed t) frame a plat? form of resole ti ona for the Convention, asked permission to sit daring the sessions of the .body, which was agreed to.' ' I Lessra. Bigelow, of Pennsylvania, and Hamp? ton, of Souih.CaroLlna, were appointed a com? mittee to conduct the permanent President to the chair. ? Governor Seymour, escorted by those gen? tlemen, then proceeded to the platform amid j -great and long continued cheering. He briefly j ..returned thanks for the honor conferred, and .counselled moderation, toleration and harmo? ny on the part of the Convention. The moat important questions, he said, would be forced apon the consideration of this Convention, .gome oTthese were forced opon it by the reso * lotions of the . late Chicago Convention. He then discussed th? Republican platform, and accus:3 that party of violating its own declara? tions against repudiation and unequal taxa? tion; ho expressed solicitude for the widows ind orphans of soldiers and sailors, and charg -ed the now dominant party with the extra va? grant wasting oj tho public money, the tainting j - of the national credit, the impeding of immi . gration by overburdening labor with taxation, .andthe breaking down all the constitutional .guarantees of republican liberty. In denying the -assertion of the Republican Convention / that the principies of the Declaration of lader penden ce are now sacred on every inch of Aaerican soil he called attention to the fact that insten States of the Union" oivirjaw^waa even now at the feet of military power. - A large number of resolutions were offered ..f.''"???r?farred without debate. Besolutions endorsing President Johnson and applauding the course of Judge Cbaaeton .on impeachment created applause. Resolution.? irking universal amnesty with? out any exceptions, were unanimously adopted, when the Convention took a recess to four O'lDCk. V. Massachusetts and Rhode Island will vote fox Chase on the first ballot. Pendleton*? friends claim one hundred and eighty votes -on the unit ballot; and it is. generally behoved that a nomination will require twenty or thirty " -' ?allotrnga. . Chase's letter is pabliabed. 'After expressing 4 himself in favor of eocording suffrage to all -citizens, be sayo : "On this question I adhere to my old State rights doctrines. ? In the event of nomination and success, I trust I should ao act that neither the -great party which makes the nomination, nor the great body of patriot? ic- citizens whose co-operation would ensure success, weald have cause to regret their, ac- j tion. Itia an intense desire with me to seethe Democratic party meeting the questions of the : day in the spirit of- the day,' and assuring to itself Along duration of ascendency, lt can do ec if it w^U." The. Convention reassembled at 4 P. M., whenthe Soldiers' and Sailors' Convention pre? sented an address expressing no preference for any candidate, bat breathing harmony and -confidence in the result. The effort to overturn the two-thirds role .failed.' - The Convention adjourned at 6 o'clock with? out a ballot on the platform. From ?he State Capl aL 03Cuinz?no? os THE GENEBAL - ABSKMBLV .

[rani ons own EEPOETEB.] CoLtTKBIA, MohUAY NIGHT, July 6.-In per? cance of the call of General Scott, tbe Gover? nor elect, the two Houses of the new -General Assembly of South Carolina met at Janey's Hall at noon to-day. in the House of Representatives, J. H. jenks was' called to the chair, and Alderman Adams ?offered a payer. The roll was called and the members were sworn by counties, the chair? man being first sworn by Dr. Mackey. The question was address :-d to every number whe? ther he waa disqualified under the Constitu tiooal Amendment-, and Mr. Nixon, of Barn well, was tile only one who answered yes. The number of members pr?sent was one honored and ava.- Several Democrats were absent, and the.fact was announced that the seats for An? derson and Lancaster were contested. Of th?'senatora, nineteen appeared in their seats. In the absence of-Mr. Boozer, Mr. -Corbin was chosen president pro tem, and a prayer was offered by Parson Cain. Mr. Woodruff, of the Courier, was chosen secret arv. ??ter the appointment of other officers and a Committee on Credentials, the senators were sworn in hy Dr. Mackey as President of the SUfe Convention. It was announced that the elections - wooli be untested flor tbe counties of Anderson, Marion ard Lancaster. Governor Orr waa-invited to send in bis message, and Trill do so to-morrow. -After' some debate on minor topics, the Senate adjourned. "W. J. Whippa denied the power of the body to prevent any man from qualifying who had in his pocket General Cunby's certificate of --w-election. He said that they were not yet a Legislature, and could exercise no power over gentlemen daly elected and endorsed. The point, was overruled. The House then pro? ceeded to effect a permanent organization, F. J. Moses and J. H. Jenks were nominated * for the speakership. W. J. 'Whipper rose, and said that he bad a disagreeable duty to perform, but he would do it bofdly. The time had passed for farther concessions from the colored man to party, and he now claimed for his race the speaker? ship. The course pursued by the Republican party had not been hostile to the black man until the -issue of color had been made, and upon tite white members must rest the conse? quences. His race must no lODgor be ignored, .. They had tho power. ' They had filled offices with ignorant, irresponsible white men, always yielding to the cry of expediency, hat they would be deceived no longer. Men like De Large might be used for a while by designing whiles to carry ont their purposes, but the whole race could not and should not be politi? cally outraged by any party. He demanded aa a right that the.colored man should be sup? plied with offices, and if the party could not stand the weight of the black man in doing him justice, the party had better go to pieces. He concluded by nominating for Speaker E. B. Elliott (colored), of Edgefield. The House then took a recess until 5 P. M. On reassembling, they proceeded to the elec? tion of Speaker, which resulted in the choice of F. J. Moses, Jr., who received 63 v?tesf against 87 for Elliott. After some other business of an informal character, the House adjourned. The organization will probably be perfected to-morrow. General Scott bas arrived. It is expected that the Legislature will take a recess from Thursday next until the following Tuesday. Oar Washingtou Dispatches. WASHINGTON, July 6.-Its THE HOUSE the Committee on Commerce were directed to in? quire into the expediency of repealing the law requiring locked safety-valves OB steamers. A bill was introduced forbidding the erection of bridges over the OHio River of less than Ar? ty feet above high w/ter and dve hundred feet span, excepting the* bridge at Louisville. North Carolina's adoption of the fourteenth article, and the credentials of her representa? tives, were referred. The representatives from I that State, named French, Dewees and Jones, were sworn in, after which the House ad? journed. _ THE SEN-ATE, after unimpoitant business, considered the Tax bill until the adjournment. The amendments of the Finance Committee were adopted, and when about half through with the bill, a night session was'ordered, after which the Senate adjourned. The Senatei confirmed Gea. lidford as Col? lector at Richmond. - .-.-. Affairs in Louisiana. NEW ORLEANS, July 6. -The " Senate to-day dropped their joint resolution, ratifying the fourteenth amendment, which was engrossed for the third reading, and took up the House resolution for the same purpose, for concur? rence and passage to the second reading. The Senate Committee on Elections is com? posed of five - Republicans and two Democrats. Several passages at arms occurred to-day. A bill has been introduced in the House by Mc? Millan, oreating the. office of State printer, to whom shall be given the entire Slate and municipal printing. The bili has been denounc? ed as a tremendous swindle, and provides that this official shall hold office for four years, .two years longer than the legislative term of office. ? Chief Justice Chat? and the Democratic Nomination. - The following is the extract fr Dm the recent letter of Chief .Justice Chase, referred to in yesterday's NEWS, in which he formally gives in his adhesion to the Democratic party organ? ization: i While I would be gratified to receive the nomination, I do not desire to have my name used without a positive assurance of success. I desire to put on record, in advance'ot the meeting of- thc Convention. that I will 8upp*rt the nominee. . - -. ? The Washington correspondent of the New "York Tribune, writing on the 3d instant, says: A large number of gentlemen called on Mr. Chase tooday, hut he refuses to be led into any discusi?n on the subject of his nomination. In reference to the amnesty proclamation which the President has issued to-day, extending Sarc ?-. to ali ..who participated in the late re elli. 2 -?2 ^pt those who are under indictment in couria 4 may be said that the friends of Mr. Chase do not exactly approve , the measure, and hold that the pardon should be general in its terms, and not except any one. They argue that the President has a right to pardon any, one even after conviction, and they cannot see why be has not the same right to pardon be? fore conviction or pending trial. In defining Mr. Chase's political position they point to his old record in the Senate, and quote his own words on a memorable occasion. "lama Democrat, by the graoe of God, free and independent." ! Mr.' Chase does not believe .in making plat? forms for parties, but he has written one letter to John J. Cisco, of New York, in reply to cer? tain queries concerning the platform which would oe acceptable to him. In this letter Mr. Chase takes the ground that the subject of universal suffrage should be left where, iir bis opinion, the Costitution of the United States leaves it, and that the General Government bas nothing to do with it. He is in favor of universal amnesty, and the removal of all disa? bilities on accou it. of participation in the late rebellion; and believes it essentially neces siry to the adm.niatration of good govern? ment in the late rebellious States, and to ihe. full and satisfactory re-establiahmeni of the. practical relations of these States with the o:her States of the Union. He strongly condemns military governments in time of peace as incompatible with the principles of civd lib rey, and believes that a free people will never sanction them. He desiree that the taxes should be as light as possible, and that they should beso distributed as to bear on the rich rather than qn the poor. He holds (hat, while al! the national obligations should be honestly filled, no privileges should be gran? ted to any classes of individuals or corpora? tions. Mr. Chas always believed and now believes in the fundamental doctrines of Democracy, and this paragraph very faithfully defines his present position. He seems tran? quil and unmoved, and pleasantly chats with ail who call on him. In in a few days he leaves here for Minnesota. THE LOXTJON. TESTES os THE DISRAELI M a OTBT.-The Thunderer i3 by no means com plimentaryin speaking of the Disraeli minis? try. In referring to the progress made with the Scotch and Irish Reform bills, it says: The conservative ministry, having abandon? ed every part ot their cargo piecemeal, and at last cut away their-masts, are getting into har? bor, where their crazy vessel may be broken up. Everything has been lost, not excepting honor. It is impossible not to feel some re? lief that the end is so near. The Chancellor of the Exchequer declared the other day that the position. of the occupants of the treasury bench was not pleasant to themselves, and as this bas been acknowledged, we may ask to whom is it pleasant ? Has any ministry ever held a similar position ? The most charitable observer can discover no bond of union be? tween them, except that they entered office at the same time ana are content to draw their salaries together. This is a spectacle of unity which is instructive,' but it is purchased at a very high price. It is an awful dispensation that the constitutional party should be repre? sented by a body of gentlemen who build up principles only to abandon them, and who re? pudiate with unruffled composure any profes? sion, however loudly advanced, which may happen to become inconvenient. The part icular action which inspired these words was the adoption by the ministry of the very principle which they fought in Mr. Glad? stone's Reform bili, and defeating which gave them the offices they now hold. By a curious coincidence the last surrender of Mr. Disraeli took place on the anniversary of the introduc? tion of Lord Dunkellin'a amendment, whose success led to the resignation of the Russell Gladstone government. In this matter of re? form they have little by little abandoned the "essential" principles, first, of opposition to reform itself; next, that "no centre of repre? sentation shall be extinguished;" third, the principle of rating; and, finally, that the en? largement of suffrage and the redistribution of seats ought to go together. Th we. never was a more conspicuous example of abandonment of prinpiple for the sake of retaining office, THE NEW STATE GOVERNMENT.

A COMMERCIAL VIEW or THE CROPS.-The Cincinnati Pries Current of the lat instant thus speaks of the wheat harvest and other crops : Wheat has been harvested prettv generally, ic all the States south of the Ohio river, ana also in the southern portion ol Illinois. The yield is not very heavy, but the quality is pretty generally highly spoken of. In portions of Indiana the weevil has been doing considera? ble damage, but tbis does not extend over a large district. The accounts from the entire Umon, with an exception here and there, as regards the crops are generally favorable, more generally so than Las been tie case for many years. The indications of an abundant corn crop die quite favorable, and should this be the case, a larre increase in the pork cropmav be looked for the coming seaton, because the supply of stock hogs will ba unusually large; for not only was the supply left over from last season larsre, fanners not having fatted them because of the high price of cora and the comparative low price ot pork, but the increase since then has be.n liberal, so that the num? ber now in the Western States, it will be seeu, must be unusually large. -George Alfred Townsend describeth Sena? tor Hendricks for the Cleveland Leader : "Sen? ator Hendricks is a composed, discreet, ortho? dox, vigilant man. His mouth is full of honey, and you cannot hear the bees buzz when he speaks. He has beautiful auburn hair, and will be presumed to get the full red-headed vote of the country. His exterior is Band-papered to lid him of any idosyncrasies, and he can construct a syllogysm upon ^hree falsehoods, out of whose moral lessons he will mike you weep."_ The retail news-dealers of New York com? plain that the chief uetvs agency houses of the eily, having lately amalgamated, have charged them an increased price for newspapers, and will not sell them weekly papers on Sundays. The retailers, holding that this is a monopoly from which they suffer, have resolved to deal di? rectly with the publishers, and thus obtain their supplies at the old rates. To enable thsm to do this they have established a co-operative association, to keep the profits of their busi? ness in their own circle, I THF. 'NATIONAL StHUTZEKFKST. . A very anima'ted scene waa presented at the New York Sch?tzenfest on" Wednesday, when the shooting commenced. In the front rank taking aim at the targets, 600 feet away, were the sharpshooters who wore in the act of fir? ing, while in the rear were seen others engaged in carefully loading their pieces. The' bine smoke curled up bet ween the sharpshooters and tire unresisting adversary, and an odor of vil lanons saltpetre filled the air. In the distance the targets were seen, the old one3 replaced by new as soon as each shot was fired. The sharp? shooters, in diversified uniforms, standing in picturesque attitudes, with a background of blue smoke, some firing and falling back, some loading and advancing, seemed engaged in a skirmish with some unseen foe f.hat was get? ting decidedly the worst, of it. More than $7000 were received for admission to Jones' Wood, each* ticket being twenty-five cents. A New York paper, in its comments upon the Sch?tzenfest, has the following just and inter esting remarks: It has been so often said tlia* the Germans know how to enjoy themselves rationally better than any other people, that some ore wont to laugh or yawn at the repetition: but the asser? tion is so true, and so deservedly complimen? tary, that it resembles old wine, and appears to grow sweeter with age. Here, for instance, in the height of the day's festivities, ore, say 10,000 people, nearly all Germans, as innocent and ingenuous as children in their pursuit of recreation from the toils and cares of every day existence. The admission fee is merely nominal, twenty five cents, and hundreds of husbands and fa til? ers are enabled to furnish themselves and their families ten or twelve hours of good, solid, wholesome enjoyment, accompanied, too, by accessories which are just as much luxu? ries to them as ore the costly wines and other expensive vices to the wealthiest Sybarite, at a pecuniary expenditure which would hardly serve to start one of pur young Americas of the present day upon the tamest spree. Others, in better circumstances; and with broader de? sires, may seek the dining hall of the grand pavilion in preferenc? to the little booth where sandwiches, pretzels and lager are the cheap and wholesome entertainment; but most cf them will wring from each penny its sum total of enjoyment ere it enriches tue till of the vendor; and with all a careful and practical study, of economy rn the pleasures as well as the necessities of life hu schooled them into enjoying themselves more cheaply than almost any other nationality on the globe. ilusic may be had for nothing, and the ex? ercise, exhilaration, and joy of dancing is as naturally andas freely a consequence os the glad leaping of the waters when the musical south wind sweeps them up in merry waves. Many a German laborer or mechanic goes to a festival of this-kind accompanied by bis wife, a daughter or two, and the inevitable baby (therealways isa baby somehow), and the sum of his Axr&nsesat the close of a long day of pleasure, if computed, will foot up some? thing as follows: ' Four admission fees (foe girls half price, and no? thing for the baby).".. 75 Eight glasses laser-beer iBiy two apiece, with a sip from each tumbler for the baby). 48 Dinner, brought ia a lunch-basket.;... 00. Pretzel for baby, who isn't use to the crush and > gets a little cross. 02 Music. 00 Dancing. 00 Charming river view. 00 Fresh air. 00 Hobby-horse exercise.". 00 Stringing exercise. 00 View of tight-tope peiiotoianre. 00 Screot-car ride home....j. 24 Katrina's wa te mil netting] lort in the dance.... 15 Total.].ilw The above estimate is made within a gene? rous margin, considering the thrift, economy, -gua uli??U -imtl.PH nt ifrn i-'l" if ufa??U ? i treat. ,But, compared with a day's family recreation of tbe same class of other nationali? ties, it would certainly not make a very spe? cious display of extravagance. At the conclu? sion of a day so innocently spent, the family party, with the "old man'' most probably car? rying that inspiring germ of future feats and bunds, the baby, aud. the wife and mother bringing up the rear with the girls in tow. re? turn wearily but happily to a home which, however humble, wm look bright through many a long term of laborious routine from the recollection of that merry day by the river, in the midst of green leaves, music, and a multitude of sympathetic hearts. And this is merely on instance out of hundreds, and even thousands. Surgical Separation of the Siamese Twin?, Chang and Eng. The scientific world, and especially that por? tion of it who have made the study of medi? cine and surgery their profession, cannot fail to be intensely interested in the fact which has recently come to our knowledge, of the deter? mination ;. of Chang and Eng, the Siamese twins, to submit to a surgical operation for the purpose of dissevering the wonderful link that has so long bound them together. Some forty years ago these twios were introduced to the notioe of the civilized world, having been brought to England from Siam in the year 1827 or 1828. by Captain Bunker, at pre? sent living m New York, and for a series of yeats they were exhibited to the public at all the great centres of civilization. Having visited America, they determined to make this land their home. They boueht a valuable tract of land in North Carolina, married two sisters, and settled down in the ordinary routine of a farmer's dally life. Eac' ^f them is now the father of nine children, ?ne reason for their determi? nation, at thia late day, to call in the art of surgery to produce an entire physical separa? tion, is, that having reached such an ad? vanced age (fifty-nine years) they aro fearful that one may become tbe subject of disease, which may prove fatal to both. The interest? ing question arises, what are the probabili? ties of a successful operation being perform? ed? It will ba remembered in pursuing these inquiries that the twins are held to? gether bv quite a massive link of thoioughly normal and perfectly vitalized integument, sonia ten or twelve lnohesia circumference, situated near the vital organs, and in close proxinritv to the heart and lthiga; and the connection is so intimate that each seema to be thoroughly au organized por? tion ot the other, as much so as any of the ordinary members of a naturally constituted human body. Sensation, ner? vous impression, mental phenomena, morbid, physical, and nervo-niental conditions, all show a most perfect psychical unity ia this wonder? ful dual physical existence. Ihe question in regard to the result of an operation ia no new one, but soon after their first appearance in Loudon and Paria it excited the minds of the foremost intellects in the surgical world. If we remember rightly, the 'Twins" were exhib? ited before the Academy of Physicians and Surgeons in Paris at that time for'the purpose of ascertaining their opinion in regard to the probabilities of a successful opera non. The disagreement in regard thereto we believe led to the abandonment of the project. Has the science of surgery so rapidly advanced that to? day successful results can be promised when there was so much doubt a score or two of years ago ? We understand tbey contemplate visiting Paris for the purpose ?f having the operation performed.- Nm Yoik Tribune. Terrible Scene at an Execution. A horrible spectacle was presented in Salis? bury, North Carolina, on Friday, the 26th ult., at the execution of Rufus Ludwig, for the mur? der of his wife, after being reamed to her only eleven daye. He smoked a ci?ar on hiB way to the scaffold, and seemed not to care forthe tate that awaited bim. In the midst of the prayer he called or. one of the crowd for a chev of tobacco, which he took and put in his month. .After a hvmu bad been sung, Ludwig arose to make a speech, and rambled oe disconnectedly for several min? utes with the ?vident intention of gaining time. At length the sheriff forced him upon the plat? form, when a most extraordinary and exoiting scene ensued. He at once made a wild plunge forward, with the intention of leaping off the Slatform on the farther side, and with the evi eut purpose of making a break and a despe? rate endeavor to push his way through the crowd and escape his impending doom. Noth? ing could be more hopeless than such an effort. But Ludwig had ceased to reflect; he only felt the animal instinct of aelf-preserr* tion- J?? ^^ItevtiiroTrin- his feet a lepa off the platform^ssWItaito^ offioer3~lr" mg hold of his arms anfllrooisw^^ fav and'pulling him backward he feTT^^a^ der part of his back still on the platform;^ 1 egs and part of his body projecting over I edge. 8everal of the nearest officers of / guard at once rushed to the assistance of*t sheriff and laid hold of Ludwig's legs, ende" oring to shove him backward on the platfon But the prisoner struggled with almost supe human strength. With all the vigor of his po erful and muscular frame, nerved bv despa be wrestle i with fate. For a lon? tune ha \ tered no word, but with convulsive and rap movement of arms and less strove to wren himself from the grasp of the eight or ten m who now had hold of him. A thrill of awe ai horror ran through the immense assembla; and it swayed to and fro like a forest shaken a mighty wind. But those whose duty it w to act remained calm and cool. Thc noose w two feet above hie bead as he lay, and pow? ml efforts were ussd to push him up to it. . the end of more than five minutes be exclaim' that he would stand np and be quiet if tb would release their hold, but this was ei dent ly said only, for the purpose of inducii them to relax their efforts, for he showed r ?ort of disposition to relax his own exertion The officers persisted in placing the noose ov his head, and as be felt that inevitable toto nc bad bim, he is said to have mattered a curs which was overheard by some of those neare him. It took several minutes to pinion h hands and feet, he meanwhile lying on his sit and choking to death as fast as possible, fi the rope was stretched by his weight. By tl time bia arms and legs were tied he bad b come motionless, the cap was pat over his fae and the officers Sprang off and knocked ont tl prop. In fifteen minutes thereafter the spit of Ludwig was at the bar of God.
