[SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE NEWS.] COLOMBIA, April 29.-The Convention met this morning. President Hagood in the chair, Mr. Lawton submitted a report from the Com? mittee on Manufactures, on the communication of Colonel Palmer, relative to the importance of a general system of manufacturing and pi onie, to be derived from investments in cot? ton lAlle. The committee recommend its publication and tbat it be recorded on the minutes of the association. The committee fluter themselves from the spirit manifested in this assembly, of the practical ii telligenco of the State, that the views and facts set forth by Colonel Palmer will attract tho earnest attention of the people of South Carolina, and they regard thc establish? ment of manufactories in every section of the South as vitally associated with agriculture, and to redound to the public welfare and pros? perity. To grow our own cotton, the best in staple and quality, and to convert that same into yarns aid fabrics for export, certain ly ap? pear J tc be the policy and the hope of the South, if lessons of wisdom are to be taken from the past. The report was adopted. On motion of Colonel Thomas, Colonel Palmer was requested to lay his comtnunica tion before the Commercial Convention, to meet in Memphis. Mr. Boniest submitted the report of the Committee on Emigration and Labor. The committee say that there can be no con coalment of the fact that we are living under new and altered condition of affairs, and though there be an honest difference of opin ion among enr oitizeus as to whether this new system be to the advantage of, or prejudicial to, the in tcrests of the country and the devel opment of the resources of the State, interest and duty alike demand that we face the facts in cc>jpformity with their stern demands. No question is perhaps of more importance to all the material interests of the State than that of labor, for without it of what avail will be all the improvements in the mechanical arts and agriculture. Under that ancient re? gime, when the old Palmetto State enjoyed flood-tide of prosperity, there was an organi zation and an efficiency which crowned our agricultural efforts with assured success; but oar altered circumstances demand an altered basia of operations. That labor is new in large measure disorganized and unreliable may be in part attributed to the mistakes of the agriculturists themselves in making the laborer a partner io thc retmls of his labor, as well as to his sadden altered condition, and the miserable infinenco of wily politicians What remains to ns must be made available to the greatest possible extent, and what is then wanting io supply tho demand must be brought to ns from the crowded domains of Europe whose hands are always now extended to g?nerons and hospitable America, ask ing among as a fiiome and a coan try. The committee deem it important to to tho availability and organization of the present class of laborers, upon whom we are in the main now dependent, that there should be as far os possible a nm form i ty of wages in the matter of compensation to the laborer, and an equitable and just fulfillment of all con? tracts. Thi committee having adverted to the fact that the present supply of labor is inad?? quat to the demand, the query arises how this difficulty is to bo met, and the answer is, by the introduction of emigrants from abroad The practical success of this remedy is fully established by reference to what has been already accomplished by tho Emi? gration Society of Newberry, which, with a capital of a tew hundred dollars, after twelve months' existence, and without a State appro? priation to back her, hos already introduced neariy three hundred emigrants into her own and surrounding countios. and is now arrang? ing for a much more extensive introduction of laborers during the ensuing season. The la? borers introduced are, with very few exceptions, giving universal satisfaction to their em? ployees. The committee hope this will be tho nucleus to gather to an indefinite extent an industrious and honest chus of laborers. The report was adopted, and on motton the committee was requested to report a plan whereby the varions aectious of tbe State may avail themselves of the benefits of the New be. ry Immigration Society. Mr. Pope submitted a report from tho Com? mittee on the Constitution. The report was taken np, the sectious lonaidored and sepa? rately agreed to, and the constitution was adopted as a whole. On motion of Mr. Gilbert, a committee of firmas appointed to kcopnp a correspondence with influential persons in Get many, France, England and other countries of Europe, on tho subject ot immigration. Mr. Thomas offered a roso'ution, which was adopted, that the first annual fair bo held in Columbia on the second Monday in November, aud the Executive Committee be requested to make all tho necessary arrangements. The following were elected members of the Executive Committee: Hon. John Townsend, o? Kt. John's Colloton; A. Griffin, of Abbeville; W. 8. Honerey, ol' Charleston; Edward Mackin? tosh, of Society Hdl; J. B. Paluer, of Saluda; J. P. Thomas, of Columbia. Tho following wcro appointed delegates to the Memphis Convention: Geo. A.

MADRID, April 29.-The President of the Cortes checked a Republican member who spoke scandalously of the Christion religion.

If Senator 8pragno has any laney for blood? letting he still has an opportunity to indulge it, despite the pacificsettlemont of his imbrog? lio with Senator Abbott. Francia W. God? dard, formerly a captain in the First Rhode Island Regiment, is out in tho following card in the Providence Journal : PEOVIDENOE, April 2G, 1869. To the Hon. William Spraaue, United Slates Senator from Rhode Island : Availing yourself of your position in the United States Senate, and abusing its privi? leges in a base and cowardly spirit, you havo, m your speech of the 8th rn taut, charged me with having deserted my poet iu tho nour of danger, while a member of the First Rhode Islaud Regiment. General Burnside having, over his own signature, denied the truth of your alertions, it remains forme to pronounce you before the world, and with a full appre? hension of the words I uso, a liar, calumniator and paltroon. I am, &c, FRANOIS W. GODDARD, Late Captain Carbineers, F?rst Rhode Island Regiment. Captain Goddard is one ot "tho million" re? ferred to in the speech of Senator Sprague, and was charged by that gentlemau with having left bis post of duty in tho hour of danger at the first battle, of Bull Rao. Wo should like to hear of some of the'"boys in blue" who didn't leave their "post of duty" on tho occasion re? ferred to. A FAMILY FEUD. The Quarrels of the New York Democ? racy-BrlcK Pomeroy and the World. There is a prospect tor warm timos ahead within the Democratio parly of Now York. Taking as a text the recent endorsement of the World by Governor Hoffman and other leaders ofthop;rty, Brick Pomeroy comes out ina charact ristic style, promising to make the whole couoern see stare. The following is a sample extract from his letter on the subject : If buying and se ling, if fraud and corrup? tion, il "double-dealing and trickery, dishonesty and nothing but a love for g.iiu is to mark the course of the leadiug Democrats of New York, I just ask God to spare my life for the next two tears. I shall not go into thc buying and sell? ing business, but if tho Democratic office? holders, elected by tho people, who stand by me as they do, ignore the ono who bas stood by them and insult the peoplo by urging them to support an orean in the pay and interest ul tho people's enemies, then may I rot m the earth, be damned in the hereafter, if I don't warm it to tho oues who thus by their own signatures, and by autograph letters, indorse corruption. * * ? If forced to lt. lean sit down at my desk, mix sarcasm, s?tiro, potash, iuvective. thunder and lightuiug, with a linio argument and illus.ration iu such maimer as to make the Democrat in tor eating, if not pro? fitable. Aud so on. Brick evidently means bnsinesH, but wo Buspjot tho guus his opponent carnes are too heavy for him. THOM TUE STATE CAPITAL. I Tuc Attempt to Force an Election-How lt was Managed-The Joe Crews Mani? festo-How to make Policies Fay-The GreenvHle Hoad-The Ladies' Fair. [FBOM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.] COLUMBIA, S. C.. April28,1869.-The attempt of the Radicals on Tuesday to carry the town? ship election, of which you have alieady been advised, came very near being successful, so artfully had the plot beon contrived. Under the law it is necessary to give fifteen days' no? tice of tho holding of thc elections, aud this was done-by posting four handbills, one in the city ind throe in out of the way places, where they would only be seen by the buzzards 'ind, perhaps, a passing locomotive. The handbill posted in the city was lorn down as soon as it was put up-of course, by accident and the first intimation that the citizens had of the elections was the opening of the poils. Doe notice had been given in the Uoion League meetings, and in a few minutes one hundred rotes were polled. Of the one hundred, ninety-five were black and five white. S. L. Hose, member of Congress, so-called, was one of the five. Some of the most prominent and influential citizens at once entered a protest against the holding of the elections, lhere was some demur, but the whole thing was at last knocked in the head. The ticket proposed by the Radicals was as follows: Town Clerk, J. L. Barnfield. Se? lectmen, Jos. Taylor, P. B. Nowell and Alex. Wilhams. Constable, H. Slims. Surveyor, Jos. Winsor. All of these are ne groes but Winsor, and their character may be judged by the fact that Taylor, one of their number, declared that he;could not as a decent colored man sit with them if he were elected. Winsor is neither a negio, an Indian, nor a coohe. Tho citizens will have fair notice when the elections do come off, and will rout the enemy as they were routed in Marion the other day. Joe Crews, who had an altercation with "the Governor " because Leslie, of Barnwell, was appointed Land Commissioner, was offered an office worth $2500 & year, if he would only shut np. In reply he said that ho had already been offered a place in Charleston " worth $3500 a year and stealings," but even this was no com? pensation for the loss of the land commission? er-ship, which would have been worth to him, he said, at least $20.000. Under tho new county offices system it will cost about ten thousand dollars to collect thc taxes in Richland. Under the old regime it cost about twenty-fivo hundred dollars. The meeting ot tho Greenville and Columbia Railroad Company, to be held to-morrow, is likely to te a stormy ono. Charleston must watch the Greenville Road. The ladies' fair opened to-night. It was a bewildering confusion of protty laces and mi? raculous floral decorations. The tables were well arranged and coverod with good things innumerable, lt ia hoped that the fa ir will bc all that it deserves to bo-a triumphant sue coss.

It is estimated that over two thousand visitors are at the State capital. The streets are throngod with lively crowds, and the city h is a a metropolitan appearance. AU the hotels arc put to their eevereat tost for accommodations. Both Nickorson'8 and tho new hotel look this evonrng as if illuminated. Over four hundred Bat down at the tables to-day at Nickerson's. It has also been somewhat of a reunion of the substantial and venerable men of the ?State mon of historical reputation. Among them are ex-Governors Bonham, Perry and Orr, Qeneral James Chesnnt, formerly United States senator, and many others whose fami? liar feat urea remind us of glorious old South Carol.na. Their presenoo brings up recollec? tions, th a-, can never be forgotten, of men who for years, .is representatives of a onoe happier people, adorned our legislative balls and were the recognized leaders of the people. Tho movement that brought them together has been a most auspicious one, and successful beyond the mo.4 sanguino expectations. A little before eleven o'clock this morning the delegates to the State Agricultural Con? vention commenced to pour into Carolina Hall, and by tho time the meeting was called to or? der almost every seat was occupied.

C. Bellinger, of Soath Carolin vember 19,1833. From this derided Si South Carolina, which, it is said elset had no industry and no inventive i emanated that extraordinary implement was creating such a revolution in agricu So closely connected now are all the open of mechanism with agriculture, that lt di cd their attention, and he thought this cot as well as England, and particularly che fl ern country in its agricultural progress, i tined to embark largely hereafter in enc chinery. From some cause this invent: Mr. Bellinger's bad never been brough notice here. Mr. Reed also directed attention to tb that in the same report it would be forme the latest machinery of thia kind in usc Mr. Bellinger's, notwithstanding the ni oas inventions of others. They were a obliged to come back upon that and acta edge that no better bad been invented. Lawtou said in his interviews with Mr. Fo the manufacturer in England, that gontli bad admitted this, and he had introducei same thing into New York and other Nor! States. After the election ot permanent ofS General Hagood, on being conducted tc chair; was received with warm applause at tho conclusion ot his address Rev. Dr. ] Buist offered up the folio wieg invocation : "Oh, thou great and eternal God, Fat h our spirits, former of our bodies ! we a and praise and bless 'Thy great and holy ni We pray Thee tobe with us in this enterp Take, caro, guide, direct and influence minds. God Almighty bless the State, f per it and bless its agriculture and all th forts of tboso engaged in this work. ; great good and wise results bo brought ab and unto tho Father, Son aad Holy Spirit t be tue praise now and henceforth and fore Amen." As an indication ot the foaling and sympi of the Convention, the motion ot Mr.*Wall ot Richland, to adopt as tho rules to go the body those existing in the House of ] reBeutatives, in I860, wa1? greeted with ali unanimous applause, but on motion of Reed, tho rules of 1866 were adopted. In reply to thc preamble and resolut introduced by Mr. Wallace, relative to the scrupulo as adven turora now in coi fro 1 of Slate, and for the appointment of a comm' to prepa o an address, urging the introduc of a reliable and efficient elisa of laborers, A. A. Gilbert, of Sumter, spoko as follows : Afr. President and G-ntitmen of tOe ton "Hon-Iris?, with a great deal of hesitation, make a remark which comes spontaneous! my mind, touching this matter. It occur me that, however true may be the langu therein and however mue* we mav feel in hearts, it is true yet, at this period," this pu mar juncture and crisis in our affairs, it is politic tobring that subject prominently i forcibly forward in connection with the acti and doings of the Agricultural Conven ti When we are gradually coming up to the w -I throw it out - I havo no doubt t tho intelligence of this body will rea? discover other thought j. Our system of la aa it now exista in this country aDd in t State, however crippled, howoverdemoraliz however under bad infiueuce, is yet, at le foi the time being, all the labor that we ho separate and apart from that which cor bom tho bone and sinew of our arms, lt curs to me that anything introduced hero toi ing to disturb or distract that labor, or to cite ttioae who control that element, might ii ute that clement in an agricultural sense, s du us a serious injury. Thc colorea mau, to some extent, wo ho is etuergiug from those baneful iuflueni which so demoialized and rendered him ui for tho duties of a laborer, it seems to i If?ivoTOJOTTOo o? Ahja. sort .wouJ&iwLtc still greater influence. We must uso this c meut until wo can suppply . better. Wo n look abroad and sec thousands and millions men who might be brought to our region, a might effectually occupy tho places of t colored laborers; but they are not here; tl are yet tu be brought lure. Those applianc and influence-s which aro necessary aro yet bo put m operation. It is yet a qneati whether, with all the vigor we may be enabl to put forth iu that direction, wo can, tn a short period of timo, obtain a force from abre that would be adequate lor the wants of t country. Mr. l\ W. Woodward, ot Fairfield,thought tl discussion premature, and moved that t proamble and resolutions be referred to t Committee on Resolutions, together with other kindred resolutions and memorial Thc motion was agreed to. Mr. D. Wyatt Aiken said it seemed to b that the next step for this organization waa secure for its ell a constitution and by-lav He did not understand how they were to t what this body ls, whether it was an orga iZAtion or not. They should have a hst members. It WOB questionable whetjer th would get citizens to sign any list unless th knew tho organiz tuon. It was necessary thor fore to draft a constitution and by-laws f the government of the Agricultural Socie of the State. How were they to tei its permanency or to proceed to mal the most of it? They had commence by electing officers of a society, call it by -vh. name they pleased. It is meant to inclue every practicable ioterost of South Carolin not only agricultural, but mechanics, an i em gration, aud labor, and every possible art ar science by whish tho interests of South Can lina may be benefltted. Evety possible seien? that would tend to develope the resources i the State should havo the legitimate consider; tion of the sojiety. It ?aa necessary to pr? ceed to draft a constitution and by-laws. Some further discussion ensued as to th object and intent of ibo call for a convention t form an agricultural society, which was partie pated in by Goneral Gary. Maj jr J. P. Thom <ta and Mr. T. W. Woodward. General Gary said he did not believe th 8'ate ot South Carolina bsd been destroyed b tho war, but thought she had roiained her ir togrity as a State. Nor did be believe that th misfortunes which had unhappily befalle South Carolina iii tho last fonr years, althone; they nay have swept away a great many of be political tenets, had dr-stroyed the State Agri cultural Society. He be.ieved that societ Btill in existence. Ho bad never heard o? it dissolution. It was simply necessary to ?viv and bring to lite the operation of the society It was. bo understood, a chartered societ; thit held personal aud real estate, and if the; did not moot under that society it was wei enough to know it. The position they ha? always takou was, that tbs State of Soutl Carolina ia South Carolina yet. They ma; have been overruu by war and the operation! ot t he society were suspended, but he did no think it become thom to say, it ha8 been anni hilaled. For that re ism be thought all thej had eai 1 and done waa not only logically bul loga Hy correct. The resolutions of Mr. Aiken and Mr. Boin cat, relativo to a constitution and by-laws, were then referred to tho Commttteo on Reso? lutions. Mr. Lawton staled that bc had recently boen exploring I he immense phosphate bede ou the Ashlev Uiver, upon which money was being txpetidou by Northern ca litsiists.

They muet look to something beyond cotton, aod change their front. To get emigration they must give genial employment to laborers, give them good food, the potatoes, wheat flour, &c. to which they bad been accustomed. Tho Euiopeaas are not accustomed to corn bread. Mr. Wallace said he did not wish to revivo the old agricultural society. His opinion was against it. There is an act of the Legislature which imposes certain obligations upon all as? sociations chartered by Hie State. He thought it would he injurious to thom. On motion of Governor Orr. Colonel John B. Palmor, President of tho Vaucluse Manufac? turing Company, was invited to give his views, which he had prepared, relative to tho man u lacture of cotton and cotton fabrics. At the conclusion of tbe reading of thia paper, the convention, after returning thanks to Colonel Palmer for his able document, took a recess to four o'clock. AFTERNOON SESSION. Tho Convention reassembled al 4 P. M., President Hagood in the cnair. General Gary submittod his report on the resolutions of Messrs. Aiken and Boinest, and stated that tho committee ascertained that the charter of the old society expires in 1870. and that on inquiry whether the society owned any real estate, they found that it only exorcised a permissive right from tho City Council of Columbia so long as they used the ground set apart to them for agricultural purposes. Mr. Aiken read from the acts of 1855 and 1856, to show that tho charter of the old socie? ty expires in August, 1869. The report of the committee was then adopted. I should heve announced that the Standing Committee on Education was appointed on motion of Mr. donison, of Pendleton, son-in law of John C. Calhoun. He made a brief but very eloquent speech on tho subject, saying theie could bc no prosperity, no advance, no civilization without education, and ho would make a scientific education gradual bat obli? gatory. Mr. Heneroy, of Charleston, also accompa? nied his report with on earnest aud able speech. He urged that tho people of tho State do not fully appreciate the importance ot having their work done at home. Tho habit of going abroad is so strong that the planter seldom takes tho troubla to inquire whether what he wants can be done in charleston or any ocher part of the State. As a consequence the me? chanics are almost starving, and the money spent amongst our opponents abroad. Lot our people try them, and they will got tao best machines, and ii not satisfactory, cm always make the home manufacturer responsible. He hoped this movement would awaken oar people to the importance ot their mechanical imple? ments being manufactured at home. Mr. Henerey's remarks were loudly applaud? ed. He was followed by Mr. Lawton, who spoke in high terms of the service rendered by the preceding speaker during the war, and his manufacture of percussion caps, Ac. THE CUBAN REVOLT. Chances of Its Success-Contradictory Reports. The news in regard to the prospects of tu j Cuhau insurrection continues very conflicting. From New York wa learn that the Cubans thero aro in in high glee ovor tho news that tho Mexican Congress has authorized President Juarez to recognizo tho insurgents as bolJigo reuts whenever ho may deem it judicious to do so; also, that Mexican ports are to bo open to the Caban flag. The immediate result of this action, they say, will be the placing of several privateers in commission to look after Spanish morck .atmen in tho West Indies. On the other hand, tho correspondent of the tialily for the Spanish cause7*teTr^^pb^*7r?m Washington under date of Monday night as follows: Thero is authority for stating that the Span? ish envoy to this country esteems the rebellion in Cuba as substantially at an end That this is too s?ngame an anni uncement is generally believed here, bul that serious reverses have been suffered by the insurgents is admitted and known. Mr. Roberts deel ires that within sixty days there will not be a man in arms against tho authorities, and that General Prim will find the situation pacific on his arrival. It seems that the Captain-Qenerol has bad about thirty thousand men under arms, an i they aro steadily advancing and repossessing the inte? rior country. Tho legation here view the insur? rection as concluded, and anticipate a proclama? tion of clemency in a few days, whioh will se? cure ?he adhesion of those who yet feebly hold ont. On tho other band, tbe ogents of toe in? surgents, while they are depressed, are cot hopeless, and they give oat that substantial rea? son exists to believe that the rebellion may yet moro vigorously revive than ever, owing to the tact that the conceded occupation ot the interior ais trie ts by tho authorities will con c ntrate the insurgent torces more effectively. It ls now competent to state that an expedi? tion has been in process of organization for some time; that it bas offices in Philadelphia, this city, and New York; that several hundred men in the first and last cities have been en? rolled, and that a regular regimental classifi? cation bas been agreed apon-at least on pa per-one of tho fighting McCook family being stated to bo in command, that expedition will or waa to depart from Charleston. What complexion the present nowa will cast upon tho enterprise cannot bo foretold. It is behoved, ho .??ever, that it will delay it, and most proba? bly disband it altogether. The great difficulty the insurgents have experienced bas arisen from three causes: Tho proporty men have been a sainst them; they cannot bay arms, hav? ing neither money Dor a market, and their ?mancipation burst has failed, the negroes pre? ferring to romain at labor tuan muster into regiments.
