Mr. W. 8. Hastie, of South Carolina, sub? mitted the following : Whereas, The disasters of war have destroy? ed the banking capital of the South, and a? the high rates of interest paid by the planters of J the Souih and Southwest for loans of foreign capital for the last three years h is swept away the profit of those wn > bave made partial crops, and almost ruined the planters on the seacoast, whose crops have failed tor three successive years; and as it ie an acknowledged fact that no agriculturist can safely pay mere than seven per cent per annum for loans de? pendent upon tho chances of the products of the eoil ; and wb?reas, in view ot oor large national debt, if it is of vital importance to tbo interests of the Cotted States that the produc? tion of cotton tobacco, rice and sugar should be stimulate 1, therefore, be it Resolved, 1 hat the Finan oe Committee of the convention prepai e a memorial to tbe Con&rress of the United States for relief, and to submit said memorial to this convention for its ap? proval. The basia of the relief asked for to be founded upon the hypothecation of tbe bonds of the several Southern and Southwestern States with tbe United States; said bonds of the States bavmg twenty years to run and bear? ing au interest of six per cent, per annum, payable semi-annually, and receiving in lien thereof the bonds of the United States bearing six per cent, interest per annum, payable semi? annually, and the bonds maturing at even time with the State booda (twenty years.) Tbe tunda realized from the sale of the United States bends tc be invested in a Na? tional Bank to be located ia each State, with snob checks and balances as the wisdom of | Congress may direct. The amount asked for in no event to excoed DUO fifth of the banking capital possessed by aaoh State on the 1st ot January. I860. Referred to the Committee OB Finance. IMMIGRATION FROM Ar STRIA. Mr. Hastie presented a long communication [rou John A. Wagoner, Commissioner of Im nigration for South Carolina, ia which that rentleman expresses his belief that Baron 3eust, the enlightened Austrian Minister, rould readily enter into arrangements to pro note trade relations between that empire and he southern States. He also recommends the ?tabliahment of a direct steamship lino be ween Charleston and Trieste, the Austrian jori on the Adriatic. A communication from Commodore Ingra itm was also referred to the saine committee, a which that officer expresses bis opinion that tJthoogh the distance between Charleston and [Tieste would be greater tuan upon the North? um route from firemen, fha advantage of feather would, especially ia winter, be in its 'aver. THE IX8S0N OF LABOR. To tbe committee ou other business and igrioataire was referred a lona: communication rom Senator F. A. Sawyer, of Ch J rios to 3, re rrett-ng bis inability tobe pr?sent at tbe con ?enhon, and expressing too hope that irrita ing topics would be avoided, 'foe writer fears bax too large a proportion of the people, of nore tuan one ' race, are noo-producere. Let be manly work from industry and thereat be hamed into it by their neighbors, ..jd our xoapenty is solved. Providence has supplied ricoless gifts; let us use them by our labor bat?s, mike capital, build railroads and levee ivers. If the convention can teach this lesson f labor to our neople, it will have done more bau pohtitiaaa'aDd projects of all kinds. THE PACIFIC RAILROAD. Tbe following ie the report made on Thurs? ley by the Committee on the Southern Pacific lailroai which was unanimously adopted amid treat enthusibsm. Resolved, That ia the opinion of this con? entton the interests of the whole country, es? pecially by taoee of tbe Southern St atoa, could *e served* by a main trunk railroad line Crom lao Diego, California, through Junction River, tolerado, and along the Valley of the Gila, oath of that river, to ?1 PASO, on thc Rio fraude, and thence to a convenient central oint near the thirty-second parallel of lati ? de east of the Brazos River, Texas, from rhich feeder-roads ehonld lead from St. Louie, 'arro, Memphis, Vicksburg, New Orleans and thar points, aU of which feeder-roads should ave equal rights of connection with the maia rank, with similar feeder-roads from San "ran cisco aud other points on the Pacific coast, ritb like equal rights of connection. Resolved, That the President of thia conven- U iou be requested to forward a copy of this re? ola.ion to the President of the united States nd to the vice-President and Speaker of the I louse ot Repr?sentatives, with a request that 1 bey present the same to the two nouses of /ongress. The committee, which was composed of re ireaentativea from seventeen States, including 11 bree members ot Congress, give the following eaaonafor the report: First. It is the shortest. ?ne connecting the Gulf of Mexico and the 1 Talley of tbe Mississippi with the Pacific coast. 11 ;econd. 'It is the line, of all those now unoocu >ied, of the most easy grades, and permitting I , >r the cheapest coostructiou. Third. It passes 11 brough a less inhospitable and barreo :o in i y, an J u ver more fertile and Hospitable lands han any other unoccupied route proposed. I 1 'ourtb. The line ia touched by water trauspor ation at three points, afford tn g the greatest fi? xities for construction, consequently hastening nd cbeapeaing euch construction. Fifth. The j ne will open to the world the groat mineral rc - ources o! Arizona and Sonora, and render * lore valuable the stock-raising districts of .exas, New Mexico and Nortuero Mexico, and hus enjoy an unrivalled traffic-. Sixth. It I rould inevitably attract numerous feeders 1 rom Mexico, and thus not only stimulate en erprise there, but draw to our shipping ports F greater portion of the bullion which now seeks c lurope by hazardous conductas aod smug- \ ling vessels. Seventh. It would open a new otton-growing area in Texas, New Moxie J ai d arizona, in the lands ot the cotton-growin; elt now useless tor the lack of facilities for rausportatioo. Eighth. Some of the roads | t rhich would be the feeders referred to have ot only been projected, but arc already io ac? ive course of construction without waiting for | I overument subsidy or encouragement. Ninth nd last thou ch not least. The construction of I i bis lino more than all else beside would cu- | ' aurage what we feel to be the greatest necc-s ity of the honr-emigration and direct trade ith Europe. THE BLUE RIDGE RAILROAD. Mr. G. H. Walter, of South Carolina, 6 ab? utted the following, which was referred to the ommittee 00 Railroads : Whereas, The Blue Ridge Railroad, to con eot Knox vine, Tennessee, with a point on the freenvillo and Colombia Railroad, in the ??tate j r South Carolina, by acts recently ratified, has rovided for the endorsement of the booda of t ae said company to the extent of four mi! 1 iona j f dol?an; and whereas, by the completion of ais road and the connection of Knoxville with in:innati by rail, a continuous linc of railway .om the great West to a Soutuern port on the | j .tlantic, will thus be opened by tho shortest, lost desirable and practicable route. .Rejoiced, That in the opinion of this con- I, eution it is eminently to the interest of1 outhern aod Southwestern States that the ? , Hue Ridge Railroad should be fit once i ompleted, and wo cordially cominead this ntorpriee ta tho people of thc Southwest. POBT BOXAT. Mr. Millett, of South Carolina, submitted be following resolutions : Whereas, This convention has aasf mbled to evise means for developing the resources of j ie South rn building the Southern Pacific iailroad, in leveeing the Mississippi River, and miking available the mineral treasures of the Mississippi valley; and whereas, to ac? complish these ends it is essential to increase our labor; and to increase our labor immi? gration from Europe must be had by means of steamer5 of heavy draught and large ca? pacity, plying directly between Southern ports and Europe; be it therefore Resolved, That in the opinion of thia Con? vention the great harbor ot Port Boyal, on the thirty-second parallel of latitude, is one of the greatest ports of the South Atlantic coast, and that the railroad lrom thai point to Augusta, Georgia, should be completed as speedily as possible. Mr. Millett, in offering his ievolution, said that in the Southern States they must have immigration, and must put forth all their efforts to procure it. In regard to direct trade it had boen sf.id.lbat they ha 1 no Southern port to compete witn New York where immi? grants could land. Within thc past tif teen years a great change had taken place in regard to tuc vessels carry? ing passengere across the Atlantic. Fifteen years ago they had wooden ships, then they got side-wheel steamers, but now there were iron propellers. And out of ninety-five vessels engaged in the ocean trade ta and from New York, only two were side-wheels. The average tonnage of the propellers was 2500, and few were below that, and all or nearly all drew nine? teen feet of water, and south of Cape Hatteras they had no port tbat had over sixteen feet at the bar. lu the State which be represented, they had a port whero tho water was twenty feet deep. He bad only to remark that in South Carolina they had a harbor equal to New York, and that harbor was Port Royal. [Ap? plause.] Tho resolution was referred to the Commit mittee on Immigration. THE IMPOST TRADE. Mr. William S. Hastie, of South Carolina, in? troduced the following which was referred : Wltereas, By act of Congress, passed March 28,1854, certain cities of the West and South? west aro allowed to import goods in bond through the Cities of Boston, New York, Phila? delphia, Baltimore and New Orleans, entirely ignoring Norfolk, Virginia, and Wilmington. North Carolina, and limning Charleston ana Savannah to three points-Knoxville, Nash? ville and Memphis; and whereas, since the passage of that law the Southern Atlantic cities have ma Je extensive railroad connec? tions with the West and Southwest. Rejoiced, That the Committee on Direct Im? portation be requested to frame a petition to Congres-, asking that all ports of entry in the United Stales be placed upon the same footing as to the importation of goods in bond by in? terior cities. DIRECT TRADE. The Committee on Direct Trade with Europe reported in favor of the formation of steam? ship linea from South ern ports, which should be encouraged by subscription. The eaid lines should be patronized by planters and mer? chants of the South, and approving the scheme inaugurated between Norfolk and Liverpool at the Norfolk Convention. Dr. Linsey, of Alabama, presented a minori? ty report, setting forth tho claims of Charles? ton, New Orleans. Savannah aud Mobile, which elicited along debate. Hon. Mr. Buist, ol South Carolina, said he behoved that they b td met for the purpose ot disoussing tho beat means for developing the groat interest of the country and building up direct trade with Europe. He was satiadcd with the two first resolutions, but the third discriminated against Charleston and Mobile and other pla 'ea. He wanted to know whetbe r there was any use in this discrimination ? One speaker said that the selection of Norfolk was made at Norfolk and Bristol, when Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina were not represented. Mr. Byrd, of Alabama. North Carolina was represented. Mr. Buist said be stood corrected, but they of South Carolina had not one word to say against Virginia, the birthplace of Washing? ton. Madison, Monroe, and more recently the birthplace of Stonewall, Jar.ksnp_[Land ?? h oar? ing. J We will do nothing to injure her pros? perity, but in this matter there ls great dis? crimination-but one place is named. If thc City of Charleston suffered much during the war, she was now ready to take part in tbe Seat work of renewing the South and bring g back her old prosperity. They wanted to Eet a farr chance. They bad already a line to iverpool, which brought emigrants to all parts of tho South, and with tbe Savannah line would rapidly fill up South Carolina and Seorgia. It was, therefore, unfair for the committee and the convention to pass on the resolution as it now stood. THE NEXT CONVENTION. A report in favor of holding another conven? tion at Loenville, on the 12th of October next, also tor a committee of one from each State, to prepare a constitution a jd by-laws for the con? vention, to be reported at the next meeting, waa adopted. THREATENING TONE OF THE ENG? LISH COMMENTS UPON SUMNERS SPEECH. The London papers are still harping upon Vir. Sumner's speech. Tb9 Timos says it is Ame that Americans should understand that England will resist such demands to the last extremity. It says that "unless there be a ect ;led design to pick a quarrel with us, Mr. Sut? ler's policy is too preposterous to be cnter ained. The attempt to reawaken buried aui nosUies is, indeed, little short of criminal; but he extravagant misrepresentations found ne? cessary for thc purpose afford us slight assur tnces of the destined failure of the attempt, : The Saturday Review warns the people of he United States against the probable re? mit of putting Mr. Sumner's views into action, or "they will then understand that there is a unit to the patience of Englishmen." Thc Telegraph drains a cup of cold oomfort from he fact that "American Alabamas are almost >penly fitting out for Cuba at tho preciso mo nent when tho Americans are demanding from England damages to be counted by scores of nilhons sterling for the depredations of a iruiser which we perhaps even strained the aw in. endeavoring to detain." Intelligent ?nglishmen are becoming seriously alarmed it the condition of affairs between the two un? ions. The Beehive publishes the following ettcr : Sm-The information respecting the proe >ects of Luglish omigratiou, which I was re? tested to procure, had neen collected to the jest of my ability, and I was about to send it or publication myour columns, but the speech if Mr. Sumner bas bad so great an effect in re riving American hostility to Euglaud, and thc lontiuuance of friendly relations between the wo countries appears at this moment to be in luch peril, that I lear thc promoters and or ;anizera of English emigration cannot for the >resent prudently turn their thong its in this iircction. Judging from what I know ot thc ;eneral temper ol the American people, and rom thc language respecting Mr. Sumner's i poe cn which I hoar held in conversation, I ibould say there would be no rupture; but, ut he samo time, I hold myself prepared tor a urn of affairs which would oblige English eaidents to leave this country. Yours, d c, GOLDWIN SirjXH. Boston, April 18. The Pall Mall Gazette, in its comments ipon this letter, says thc time has pas 3cd for guoriug or attempting to conciliate American lostility. "Mr. Sumner's charges ought not 0 bo pass?d over, for a great State cannot af? ford to lay asido its self-respect when dcabug vithits equals." The article conludes with idvising Lord Clarendon to use very firm lac ruage to Mr. Motley on his arrival. -Bishops Janos and Simpson, deputed by he bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church North, visited the meeting of bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, in St. Louis, on the 7th, aud proposed action with a .iew to reunion. Tbe latter body four days if ter made a written reply, stating that they lad no authority to negotiate for reuni?n, re niuding the deputation that proposals to that :nd had been mado bj the Church South some reara ago and rejected, and complaining t hat .he conduct if tbe Northern Church towards :be Southern had since the war been such as naturally to promote a state of feeling which nade reunion impossible. AEEAIES IX THE STAT?. Choler.

T ) Times says: "Another week of co weather has lu rt ber injured the cotton, ai on all sides planters are despondent.

Both the Barnwell newspapers, the Sentin and Journal, have been removed to Black viii the new county seat. A large outbuilding on the premises of Dr. j J.

The Orange burg News calls tbe rogular Radical candidat an ignoramus and a convicted horse thief, am is doing stout service in favor of the electioi of W. M. Mount, an "independent" candidate The Orange'ourg News says: "We have newi from nearly all parts of onr county, and Colle ton also, relative to tho crops, and the effect produced by the recent cold spells, and it ap pears from what we can gather, the cottoi plant has suffered more material damage thai anything else. The growth of the corn crop of course, was retarded to a certain extent but a few days of good weather and warm san shine oonnected with thc refreshing showell we have had this week, has set this prime staf of life in a healthy condition for growing again." * Spartannarg. Tbe Spartanburg Gazette prints a rathol discouraging recital from Major 3. C. Means a large and intelligent planter of that district of his labors and disappointments in trying tc obtain a "(rood s:and" of cotton. He has been planting and replanting from the commence? ment, and yet the plant dies almost as soon as it comes up. It is impossible, therefore, ae be believes ?ven with good seasons-to make more than a half crop in tnis section of coun? try. The Major, with hundreds of others, have bad to replant bis corn in low grounds twice. The samo paper publishes the follow? ing summary of crop accounts from Mr. G. W. Turner, a practical farmer, who has just made a trip through thc upper portion of the State: ' Wheat crops look linc generally, but may have been injured by rain and hail. Coin is yet small, bul looks pt et ty good. Of cotton, he saye, there is only about a half a stand, and many aie replanting. Oat crop looks thin au i meagre. Irish and sweet potatoes look fine. Bazley crop Kood, and farmers aro feeding their stock on it. Gardens are quite backward. Many old fields are hoing cleared up aud fenc? ed in, and new grounds are being cleared all around. There is a very general improvement in the system of tannins:, and fields and homes ore being placed in good condition. Large quantities ol fie fertilizers have b.'en used." York. On Wednesday nght last week, York County was visited by a severe storm of wind, ram and bail. Much damage was done, principally along a narrow belt of land, varying from half a mile to t AO miles in width, beginning in the southwestern portion of the caunty, and cross? ing the Catawba River near Aiken's ferry, which seems to have been the attack of the main storm. All three of the elements did their shaw ol' the injury. In some places thc heavy rains, amounting almost to a flood, washed away both crops and soil, leaving thc land ruined lor pr?sent cultivation. Some bot? tom lands bad thc iVcsbely ploughed soil swept off, and u heavy deposit or sand left in its place. Hill-side fiolds also suffered from this washing procead, and io some iustancjs a good deal of guano Was carried away with the soil. The water courses were trenerally swolleu, and bridges and mills sufl'.-red in consequence. In other localities tbe wind was the principal agent of destruction, together willi bail, which wc hear frap in lumps as large as guinea eggs. Wc have heard of several houses being blown down or othcrwiso injured by tho gale, and have seen trees which were either torn up by tho roots or snapped in tivo a few feet lrom tho ground. Tho crops ?long the main truck Of thc eiorm were very seriously injured, wheat iu particular, teing almost literally ruined. Thc bridge over S.ony Fork, above Gordon's mill, was washed away; also the dam and tbe steps of tho mill-house, though tue house it Belt was uninjured. The dam of Miller's mill, on Allison Creek, was broken. 8anms' mill, at Clay Hill, bod inanv ol the glass in the win? dows broken, as did thc house ot Mrs. Watson, near by. Thc gin-bouse of B. F. Briggs, Esq., was blown down, and some two hundred DCundB of lint cotton was scattered for mile. David Turner a house, near town, was blown down, and some others, which we cannot now recall. The following farms were among those which stood the severest shock, and thc crops on thom will have to be almost entirely re? planted: W. B. Steel's, Wm. Choat's, A. D. Choat's, Hugh Tate's, Andrew Stewart's, W. H. Neely's, Mrs. Neely's, James Choat's, Mrs. M. J. Watpon's. David Watson's, J. W. Aiken's and J. B. Tate's. The storm was also very severe in Mecklenburg County, N. C., especial? ly in the Steel Creek neighborhood. Among the casualties reported there, Colonel Wm.

The Abbeville Banner says : "Jerry Hollins head, Lem. Guffin and two others, went a few days sinco to Colonel Patterson's plantation lor the purpes ) of arresting bis former over? seer- Richardson-on a charge of having been concerned ba whipping a negro last fall. Though Mr. Richardson is an old and feeble man, they actually pnt handcuffs on him 1 Being remonstrated with by some who met them, th ty removed thc handcuffs, tied the limbs of thc old man with a cord, and give bim in charge to a negro to drive him on to this place!-' Speaking of tho business before tho Circuit Court in Abbeville, tbe Press says: "The ju? ries, in spite of adverse agencies and anticipa? ted obstacles, aro fully up to the usual stand? ard of Abbeville jurors. Of thu eighteen grand juror** drawn, but twolvc wore served; the rest being negroes could not be identified by their registeren names. Hence there were no blacks on the grand jury. Of the thirty one petit ju? rors only ten wore served tor the same reason, and of these three were negroes. On each of the petit juries there was one negro. The grand jury, it will be recollected, serves for tbe whole year. Its foreman was Will iain A. Giles, Esq. Of the petit junee, Mr. F. A. Connor and J. R. Tarrant, Esq., were respectively elected foremen. The new bills found by the grand jury involved no cases of very aggrava? ted character. No bills were given out against those citizens of our district against whom charges had been preferred of complicity in tbe killing of Randolph. The Attorney-Gene? ral, Chamberlain, it is said, was expected up to attend to these cases, but did not come, and we have our doubla whether bo ever will come. Tho grand jury iguored the bill charging Dr. M. C. Taggart, A. B. Kennedy and John Brooks with the killing of a negro at White Hall at the election last fall."

JWIHE VITAL STATISllCS OF THE United States show that periodical fevers and acute and chronic disorders ot the stomach and bowels are among the most prominent and fatal diseases in thia country. Disobedience to the lawa of health, as regards die) ; the use of pernicious stimulants; and the wear and tear of business excitement, and of | "fast lifo" generally, hive much to do with the pre? valence of these maladies in our cities; while in the Weet, and especlallv in the newly opened districts, they are chiefly due to malaria, unwholesome wa? ter, and the exposure and pi ivation incident to life in new settlements. Now, lt is a fact that it is as possible ti protect the human system against these maladies as to guard life and property against tbe incursions of assassins and thieves. Strengthen the vital organizion with HOsTETTEB'S STOMACH BITTERS, and it be? comes aa capable of resisting the active principle of epidemic or endemic dUease as a fire-proof safe ls of res sting the action of combustion.

Within an area of a mile in diameter are some thirty mineral springs-no two of diem alike. lu rome of the waters, Chloride of Sodium predominates; in others, Iodine, Magnesia, Sulphur, Chalybeate, kc.
