Many of the audience fainted during the ex? citement. -The president of the '-National Labor Union" Las Issued a call for a session of this as? sociation to be held in" Cincinnati, Ohio, on August l'An. Delegates will be present from All trade unions, co-operative associations, and labor organisations of every kind. Interna .t'.otLil o * national organizations are entitled each to three representatives, State organiza? tions to ?wo, and-trade unions and all other .unious to one. The call invites to member ??h*?> of the labor union of every person who . lives by mechanical or intellectual labor. -Tee State department has received official advices that the long-pending naturalization treaty between England and the United States nos at lasi besn ,-igned by the two govern? ments, and will noon be laid before the Sen? ate fer ratification. By this the British Gov ernxent recognizes .the citizenship of an adopted citizen of thc United Stales the same as a citizen born on the soil, and thus yields the doctrine main mi ned for so many years that no citizen of Great Britain can transfer ?his allegiance. Should an occasion arise, it will have an Important bearing on all future arrests of citizens of the United States on Bri? tish soil charged with Fenlanlsm, and may yet apply to those now in prison. -Old Jesse Grant, the father ot the admlnis , tratlon and the postmaster at Covington, Ky., who ts also father-in-law of one Kramer, who is now United States Consul to Leipsic, came oa to Washington some three months ago to effect the advancement of the latter. He re . portee!, his Ineffectual effort in ?his wise: "I told :Lysses that he must appoint Kramer to one of them seventy-live hundred dollar mis sIi"?ns,I)ut'Lys3es he told me he didn't like to do 1<Vbecause the papers made so much talk about bis 'pintlng his relations to office. Then I'vips and tells 'Lysses," said the venerable P. M., "I've got about $25,000 salted down, ?which I expect to leave behind me, and if you ?don't give Kramer one of thenv seventy-live .hundred dollar missions, I'll leave the .whole .of lt to Kramer's wife, and won't leave you Aay.'t.. -In London and New York.both, special ar rangementi are being secured for the advan? tage of the masses of working people in going to and from their employments morning aud evening.. Lately the first two miles and a half of a street railway was opened in London, be? tween Whitechapel and Bow Churches, creat? ing quite a sensation. According to the char? ter of the company workmen are to be con? veyed at the fare ol one penny on particular Journeys, morning and evening, and it was of this class of passengers that the first load .'.ns ! composed. At other times the fare is two ?pennies. In New York the commissioners have Just renewed thc leases of the Union Perry Company, which controls ali the promi? nent ferries to Brooklyn, at the nominal sum of one dollar Instead of fifty thousand dollars per annum, on condition that they will run boats between the hours of 5 and half-past 7 morning and evening, at a fare of one cent instead of two, as at present charged. This will be a public blessing to the working class? es, as lt will permit them lo .escape from the slums of the city to the less crow ded outskirts of Brooklyn. -Thc Presbyterian General Assembly, in session at Philadelphia, has settled lite groat features of reconstruction as far as ir proposes to settle them. Its action determines tho fol? lowing points : "There will be thirty-two synods in this country under its care, and two in its foreign missionary fields. These synods will all meet before July 15th, and readjust thc Presbyteries There will bo, at leas?; for an? other year, no chaoge of the rates or form of representation. Hereafter it proposes that no Presbytery shall contain less than five minis? ters, and that no judicial cases except ir. rela? tion to questions of constitutional law or here? sy in ministers, shall go higher than the synod. Several of these changes raust.be submitted to to the Presbyteries before they can be of force, but it is not now designed to hold an adjourn? ed meeting of the assembly in September to receive their reports. Il still remains to pass an act legally constituting the synods. All that has been done in reference to them has been to define their geographical bounds. The consolidation ot "the missionary boards also still remains to be done." Tlie Problem for thc Convention. The problem to be solved by the State lie form Convention is this: How may South Carolina most surely obtain an able, upright and economical Slate governmer.t, which shall protect both labor and capital, and give equal and exact justice to all classes of citizens? A Bing of unscrupulous politi? cians hus squandered the public treasure, and piled tax rifler tax upon the bended backs of the people. The victory of Radi? calism is the triumph of Hitit Ring, and the day which sees its members installed, for a a new term, in the high places of the Stale, will he the beginning of another era of pub? lic extravagance and private shame. This the convention must know; and it will bo its duty lo declare, after full discussion, whether we should take up arms against our myriad troubles, or wait till Providence, in Hts own good time, sond death or deliver? ance to the State. The convention, as the representative body of the State, should be untrammelled by party claims, and unbiassed by personal preference. No line of action has been chalked out for its members. They, in their wisdom, will 'decide what shall, and shall not, be done. And yet, it may safely be said that the deliberations of the convention will direct themselves towards two main points: a determination, or a refusal, to nominate candidates for Governor and Lieu tenant-Governor against the nominees of the Scott Ring; and, secondly, the charac? ter of the address, or declaration, to be adopted by the convention as an expression of its plan and principles. It has been urged that the convention pledge the Reform party, not only to the re? peal of certain obnoxious and injurious laws, but to the enactment, if successful, of well-considered measures looking to the de? velopment of trade and the encouragement of thrift aud enterprise. And it seems to us that the great questions of popular educa? tion, and a limitation of the hours of ?abor in a legal day's work, might be discussed and with advantage be embodied in the fie form plutform. But to one thing thc con? vention is bound by the terms of the call under which the different counties elected their delegates, and that is (1) the allirma tion or recognition of the civil and politicul equality of all citizens of the State, and (2) the affirmation or recognition of the equal right of all citizens, who are properly quali? fied, to hold public office. These points must, as we understand it, be included in whatever declaration of principles the con. vention may put forth. They are, in truth, 1 the foundation of the whole great movement. As such, and a3 a recognition of palpable existing facts, they are already accepted and" agreed to by the large majority of thc while people of the State. This is, in our judg? ment, a common sense and a patriotic view : of the political situation. There is no won? derful generosity, or marvellous charity, in admitting that all citizens of .South Carolina are politically equal. The law of the State declares it. The Constitution of the United States declares it. The fact stands the sajne, whether we shut our eyes or not. And yet. a small knot of highly respectable citi? zens, who live, tinder the lair, ami make ail the money they can, under the law, anil take all the protection they can get, under the late, refuse to admit, what they see every i day, that the colored man, ranier thc late, is just as much r?. citizen of the State as the whitest white man that ever drew the breath of liie. The malcontents, if few in number, are earnest and sincere. They declare that to acknowledge the political equality of the colored mau is a desertion of principle; and, worse still, they warn their fellow-citizens that political equality will bring in its train that terrible "social equality " which is the bugbear of the times. ? It is upon the first ground that the Augusta Constitutionalist, with less force than Huon- i c}', bills South Carolina beware lest she ; swap "a devil for a witch," and declares . that " no triumph is worth the winning at the virtual surrender of principle." We, j on the other hand, believe that it is an ad- ! herence to principle to acknowledge that the j colored mau does enjoy the rights which the i laws give him. Our acknowledgment does 1 not add one tittle to thc security of the co!- . ored citizen. The law gave him the ballot. ? We did not bestow it, and, if we would, can? not take it away. Wc seek the colored vote. We petition our colored legislators. We ? count on thc colored man to side with us in the coutest forgood government. And after \ this has gone on for two years ami moro, we - are expected to deny that the colored man does vote and does hold office ? This is too j absurd. It is even unprincipled, for it is as much as to say: "Cuffec! wo, the Irrecon- ' " cilables, would like to use your votes until ? " we get, by your help, the upper hand, and : " then we will strip you of the ballot, and " let you shift for yourselves." This is the j meaning, we presume, of "goingbuck lo ; " original Jeffersonian principles.-' Such a [ policy may suit the Augusta Constitution- '? ulist, but it is not frank enough, or honest \ enough, for old-fashioned South Carolina. f The talk about "social equality" may ?J to ?righten babes, bul it is not worthy o: Hie J consideration of mon of mature mind. The ) rights at this moment that he will have when thc Reform convention closes its session, and there will be no more danger- of social equality then than there is now. The law does not say who shall be seated at the family table, or sleep in the sumptuous guest cham? ber. If auy white man likes to lake a col? ored man to his heart and his fireside, there is no law. haman or divine, to prevent it. This is a matter that every citizen must reg? ulate for himself. And, if the Irreconcila? bles argue that they must, of necessity, give a seat at their board and the cosiest chair in the drawing-rooms, to the man with whom they vote, or by whose side they sit in the legislative chamber, they propose to do now a great deal more than they ever thought of doing in the ancient days when none but white men were the rulers anti law-makers of the land. These good people need not fear that any unsavory political supporter will come betwixt the wind and their nobili? ty. Unless they do not know their' own minds; unless they have not the control of their own households; unless all their talk? ing is a mockery and a sham:-their soci' : relations, and social intercourse, will be mst as entirely controlled by their own likings and dislikings two%ear3 hence as they are this blessed day. We take it for granted, then, that what? ever declaration of policy may be made i>y the convention, must include the recognition of the public equality of all citizens, and thc equal right of all qualified persons to hold public office. " Constitutional Dfinot racy." The Augusta Constitutionalist is confident -tho Lord knows why!-that South Caro? lina could be "bettersaved-byhoisting Hie " banner of Constitutional Democracy and (: nailing it to the mast,*'than by "wool " gathering" after Reform. We should like to know from our red-hot neighbor whether a recognition of the civil and political equal? ity of all. citizens of the State (the working platform of the New York Democracy,) is inconsistent with the " Constitutional Do " mocracy " of which it speaks so fondly. Such a n&OgnitiOB of hard- facts, together with a proposition forMhc union of all honest men, with the view of Reforming the STATE GOVERNMENT, is the only "surrender of " principle," if surrender it lie, of which this people is guilty. Our Bear Giinltn. The last session of the City Council was even more disgraceful anti disorderly than these gatherings usually are. An alderman abused the eily sheriff. The sheriff swore al the alderman. His Honor thc Mayor rapped recusants to order, and increased the confusion. At last Alderman Collins sahl that " if it could bc truly stated by the " opposition press that this Council wanted " to throw a mantle over Hie black deeds of " its appointees, he desired to vacate his "seal." We think that tho alderman may safely "vacate'' without morcado. Marlon'? Men.
