VOLUME IX.-NUMBER 1982. CHARLESTON, SATURDAY MOURNING, MAY 18, 1872. EIGHT DOLLARS A YEAR. t THE SUNDAY-SCHOOL AHMT IIRD DAT OF THE STATE CON? TENTION. ternal Greeting* lo Virginia and ' Kc^v York-Cond 11 lon and Progress of | tn? Sunday-School Cause In Charles? ton. The State Sunday-School Convention reas sembled yesterday morning, in Trinity Church and, after devotional exercises, which in eluded prayers by Rev. Messrs. Mood and Bar? nard, the singing o? two hymns and tbe read lng of the twelfth chapter of Ecclesiastes, President Carlisle called the convention to order, and reqo-ie ?? the additional delegates who had arrived since the previous day to re port their names to the secretaries. The special order for the morning hour was then announced as the hearing of reports from the Sunday-schools in tbe various conn ties regarding the progress and condition of the work, and, upon the roil of counties being called, brief written or verbal reports were made by the delegates, as lollows: Abbeville ^yCawmty, Ber. Mr. Wood; Anderson County, Mr B. Towers; Barnwell County, Bev. Mr. Buist; Beaufort County, Mr. Breland. The report from Charleston County was M*inade by Bev. Mr. W. H. Adams, and is as fol lows: The Sabbath-school may be styled the favor? ite institution of Charleston. Its ever grow? ing interest requires no extraneous stimulus. The church, the officers and teachers, are heartily enlisted, either by prayer or personal co-operation. In its objects. Every Sunday nearly t wen tv-ti ve hundred are gathered with? in its walls to impart or receive the Instruc? tion wiiich makes wise unto salvation. Its superintendents are men specially endowed by nature and Grace for their momentous cull? ing, and an able corps of consecrated teachers faithfully labor under their wise supervision. As the result, many dear children, each sacra? mental season, are gathered into the commu? nion of the churcb, hopefully converted. Since the last convention, special attention has been directed to the establishment of mis? sion Sabbath-schools, with gratifying results. One of three of these offshoots Jijpm one stock rivals In numbers its parent school, em? bracing more tban two hundred scholars. Nor are the colored children unregarded lu this earnest work. One school of two bun dred colored members ls officered and taught by white persons, whose labors are deeply ap? preciated by that race. The Interest bi pastors is evinced by their presence, during a portion ol the exercises, generally, o? each Sabbath. A spirit of benefi? cence characterizes the several schools, and In some Instances the children are organized in societies ior doing good, at home or IQ for eign lands, with marked success. For all which there is occasion for gratitude to the great Head o? the church. Farther reports were received, as lollows : Chester County, Mr. Bucbauan; Chesterfield County, General W. L. T. Prince; Clarendon County, Mr. J. B. Carragan; Collet on County, Mr. Clark; Darlington County, Mr. J. W. Par? rot; Edgefleld County, Mr. Wright. At this' point the reception ol reports was interrupted hythe special order for half-past 10 A. M., which was the discussion of "The benefit of a pars Sunday-school literature and hy mnology. " The subject was introduced by a carelully prepared essay by Rev. Mr. Buist. Another essay on the same subject, by Mr. J. L. R. Tennet, was read by Mr. J. M. Johnson, one of the secretaries. Prof. Carlisle Impress? ed upon the convention the importance of this subject, and called attention especially to the \ Ottiastion--o<-inoiicinii -pnp??"""!" promptly SF F turn books taken from tho Sunday-school f library. He said that the Anglo-Saxon mind of the nineteenth century seemed lo consider it an inalienable right to keep a borrowed book as long as one pleases, but this feeling caused a serious difficulty In the way of keep* lng a Sunday-school library together. Rev. Dr. Whitefoord Smith, Captain De Pass, Mr. Scott, from Richland, Rev. Mr. Mood and Rev. Dr. Meynardle continued *tbe discussion, the latter urging that all such books o? an historical character as are filled with mendacious and injurious epithets &nd innuendoes of a political and partisan nature if books are to be political at all, (audit was tobe hoped that they should not be so,) let them at !<>ut be Southern in sentiment Rev. Mr. Oliver offered the following reso? lution: Resolved, That lt is tbe sense of this con ventlon that no book should be Introduced I ' Into a Sunday-school library which does not, '1 in some way or other, recommend the religion of Jesus. This resolution was discussed at some length by several of the delegates. Rev. Mr. Mood I i said he could not vote ior the resolution as lt |1 stood. Mr. Gilbert also opposed the r?solu tien. Rev. Mr. Jacobs said that he believed | j In the sentiment of the r?solu1 in, but could not vote for Its adoption, because he did not lleve lt was the prerogative of the conven on to decide such peints. The resolution was finally withdrawn by the mover. j t Ou motion o? the Rev. Dr. Meynardle, lt was resolved to Bend the following dispatch to the Genera! Assembly of the Presbyterian Church now in session at Richmond, Va., andi asimi? lar dispatch to the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Churcb, now sitting at Brooklyn: CHARLESTON, S. C., May 17. I i The South Carolina State Sunday-school ?J Convention, now in session In this city, to. tho General Assembly of the Presbyterian |1 Church, at Richmod, Ya., send greeting. God speed the combined work of leedihg the sheep and feeding the lam bs. He shall see the travail of His soul and be satisfied. [Signed] J. H. CARLISLE, President. WM. C. POWER, Secretary. After the Binging of another hymn the next I ] regular topic for discussion was announced as | j "The best method o? instructing children ?" and)Rev. Dr. Meynardle read the opening ad? dress. The subject then being thrown open for general discussion, brief addresses were made by Mr. A. A. Gilbert, Rev. L. Wood, Rev Mr. Legare, Rev. W. P. Jacobs and others. This was followed by the'opening of the "question boxes," and the discussion and an swen to the various suggestive and pertinent questions that were found therein, and this proved again to be a most interesting and in? structive exercise. The question which elicit? ed the most discussion was as to the best method of raising the necessary funds for the support of the Sunday-school, and many in? teresting experiences and valuable sugges? tions were given by several o? the delegates. WLen the questions were all answered, the I ? doxology was sung and a benediction pro-1 \ nounced, and the convention adjourned until eight P. M. ? EVENING SESSION. j The convention reassembled at 8 P. M., ' Colonel W. L. DePass, presiding, and after j prayer by Rev. W. F. Jacobs, and the singing I ol the hymn "Nearer my God to Thee," Rev. j I. S. E. Legare, agent of the American Sun- i day-School Union, was announced to speak ] upon the "Grounds of encouragement to ex? pect a blessing upon Sunday-school instruc? tion." He said that,.in the first place, the dis? tinct promises of the Scripture should afford ?, sufficient grounds ol encouragement, but in | ( *<?dltion to that lt was a fact that most of the conversions in the present day came from the j Sunday-school. He gave a number of remi? niscences Jrom bis experience of over a half a century of connection with Sunday-schools, some of them amusing and some pathetic, but all of them interesting, and all tending to show what could be done by earnest Sunday school labor, even under the most* unpromis? ing circumstances. After another hymn had been sung an in? teresting essay upon the same subject, by Prof. J. P. Smellzer, D. D., was read by Jno. P. FickeD, Esq. General W. L. T. Prince, of Camden, then addressed the convention, referring to the great number of revivalp which could be traced directly to the agency of the Sunday g ch cols, and deducing from that fact an argu? ment for the encouragement of Sunday-school worker?, and after the doxology and a bene? diction the congregation was dismissed.

MURDER WILL OUT! Remarkable Discovery of a Manier Seven Years After the Date ot the Crime. (From the And rson Intelligencer.] In the month of June, 18G5, a man named fohn W. Meeka, living in the neighborhood of Etreazeale's mills, in this county, disappeared rom home quite suddenly, and many supposed >h?t limn w??-ftml play connected With his un? expected disappearance. Others conjectured ;hat be had gone away cf his own accord tor -easons of a domestic character. The cl ream - nances had entirely passed out ot the public mind until a short time ago, when it w.-s whis? pered around lu the neighborhood that lhere was positive proof In existence that the missing nan was aciuahy murdered. His friends be? gan an Investigation of these rumors, and the result was the arrest or a colored man named Wm. Brock, who was supposed to know the facts connected with the murder ol Meeks. His llsclosures led lo an examination of a certain locality, where he alleged the body was In? terred. The remains were found at (he point leslgnated uv Brock, aud au inquest was held a "ew days ago by vlarren D. Wilkes. E-q., trial ustice and acting coroner, resulting in a ver? dict to the effect that Meeks had neeu mur? dered on the-day of June. 18C5, aud that Wm M. Davenport and D. K. Bieuzeale, Jr., were the principals, and Mr. Earvin Vandlver tnd his son Robert Vandiver, with the colored mao Brock, aforesaid, wore accessories to the homicide. Upon tho evidence elicited at the coroner's inquest and the verdict reudercd ts above stated, warrants were issued for he suspected parties, and on Monday last Wm. M. Davenport and Wm. Brock were arrested aud lodged in jail to answer the charge against them respectively. It ls understood that the Vundlvers have receut.y ?ed the country, and Breazeala moved away from this section five or six pears ago.' The story,oi the murder presents , t shocking and brutal a?pect, us we ure tn- . ormvd I hat the testimony sets forth that 1 Meeks was shot by one ot tne parties, and In i ittemptlog to make his escape in this wound id condition he was overtaken by another, ,vho dealt him such heavy blows with the gun is to take his life: In justice to Mr. Daven- ; lort we will state that ne declares his entire i nnocence of the murder, and although oppor- , ^unities to make his escape have not been wanting since the grounds of suspicion were 1 made public against him, there has been DO I tttempt on his part lo elude the officers ot i he j aw. Since the above was put In type, Mr. Marvin Vandlver has been arrested by the au- 1 .horities and lodged In the jail at this place. ?

GREELEY AN EDITOR Progress of the "Woodhull Movement Headquarters Established and Bon Issued-Breaking Ground for the So tcrranean Rall?ray-The F n t n Heart of the Metropolis-New Thea tres Projected. [FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. 1 NEW YORK, May 15 "The Tribune ls not and will never more a parti organ'* Is the announcement which ap pears in to-day's Issue of Mr. Greeley's paper in which also appears his card announcing formal withdrawal from the editorship, definite change In the character of the Tribune ls an event in American journalism. For thirty years this able paper has been the pronounced of party organs, indeed it has been the organ of the Republican party since that was formed and until a late period. Quite as much, in the past, to the unswerving sup port of Republican readers as to its excellence as a newspaper has Its great pecuniary success been due. It hos been evident that since Us chief abandoned the regular Republican or ganlzallon the paper could no longer expect maintenance on party grounds. Its declara? tion of independence was inevitable. Though the New York Times has stepped Into the place so long occupied by the Tri bune, lt does not appear likely now that the latter will suffer from the change. It has an established position among American journal and the loss of partisan support cannot weaken the reputation lt has won of being a model newspaper. Its relation to the press is now analogous to that of the London Times or that claimed by the New York Herald. It will be amore Influential Journal than the Herald Tor lt has a life-long reputation for editorial iblllty, which the Herald has not, and appeals to an educated and substantial clasB, which [he Herald does not. The retirement of Mr Sreeley from the editorial charge is noticed willi Kindly remarks by most of the contem poraneous local press, notably by the World which is the most pronounced la its opposl Lion to Mr. Greeley's Presidential claims The Times indulges in bitter and most unjust comments, evidences of the strong personal hatred of Mr. Greeley which mles the editorial breasts In the Time", office If is true, however, I hat, as long as Mr. Grce ley continues to live In this city, many of his opponents will insist upon attributing tho Tri bune leaders to his inspiration, and hold him responsible therefor, and he could best serve the purpose he had In view in casting off the harness by taking the advice of his amiable personal friends and political opponents of the World, and making a visit to Europe or the Par West during the Presidential campaign it ls not yet intimated by those who know his mind best whether he will mount the stump [or Greeley and Brown this fall. He would un Jointedly prove a most effective champion Tor that ticket if he should .go before the peo? ple, for he ls one of the most attractive speak ers In America; but possibly he has some ecru pies about the propriety of personally solicit? ing their votes. The "odds and ends" party, bearing a ban uer with the strange device, "Woodhull and Douglass," has got itself into visible shape by airing a house up-town and opening a "hoad auarters." Mesdames Woodhull and Clafflin dave abandoned their broker's office in Broad street, and gone into the new business of President making. The "National Executive Committee'" have adopted the old Fenian plan 3f raising the wind for campaign purposes and have begun the issuing of bonds, of de nominations varying from ten to one hundred Jollars, payable when Woodhull gets to be President. Aay one would suppose that sub scribers would regard the purchase of these bonds as a permanent Investment, and yet there are lunatics outside the asylums who really bel'cve the Yankee Victoria will have the opportunity to redeem them from the steps of the White House. ' it should be re membered that there are several millions of Spiritualists in the United Stales, and out of that hu-?e number it is possible that there may se some far enough gone towards frenzy to aelleve Mrs. Woodhull's claim that she is run oy the spirit of Demosthenes, backed by all the Bages and statesmen of the old Hellenic republic. If lt is true, how Impotent will Grant and Greeley be against the invisible powers of the air, the witches, demons, gob Ins, ghosts, vampires and sorcerers who are ibout to rally for Woodhull and the Black Douglass. An underground railway for New York now ippears to be a fixed fact. The company char? tered by the Legislature five years ago, with the right to bore the luland for a railway, aever got to work because capitalists refused to furnish the funds. The new project au? thorized by the present Legislature will have no such trouble, as the tuan with millions, Cornelius Vanderbilt, ls its father. Already the surveyors are busy, and in a few weeks not less than three thousand men will be en? gaged in excavating along the line. Mr. Van? derbilt pramises that trains will be running to Forty-eighth "tceet inside of two years. The town-town depot will be in the City Hall Park, oetween the City Hall and the new postoffice, ind the route will be under the line of Centre street and the Third avenue, with stations svery half mlle. The Central Underground Railroad Company contemplates a resumption of its t Hort s to raise money. It Is authorized to bore under Broadway and Eighth avenue, In the direction of Yonkers. Printing House Square will be the heart of the city In a few years. Surrounded on one side by the great newspaper offices and banks, an the other by the municipal buildings, the postoffice and the courthouses, on the east side tipening to the Brooklyn Bridge, and In the sentre to the Underground Raliway depots, it will be the point from which business ol all kinda will radiate to every part ol the Island ind surrounding country. Niblo's is to be rebuilt, and still another theatre, or rather an opera-house, Is pro ected up-town. The latter will probably be ;rected on the lots at the corner of Madison avenue and Ea9t Twenty-sixth street, oppo ilte the Union League Club Building, and in the immediate neighborhood of the Filth avenue Hotel and the New Haven Railroad lepot. It ls said that all the money is sub icrlbed. The great German theatre and )peru-house is also a certainty. Among the managerial changes of next season is I he easing of the late Jim Fisk's Grand Opera ?ouse by Mr. Augustin Daly, manager of the Fifth Avenue Theatr?. He will run both louses in the future, the first for spectacle, the latter for comedy. For the Grand Opera Elouse he wi l import tho Paris sensation, .King Carrot."

The President's RIe??age and the Propos? ed Supplemental Article. The (ollowing ls the text of, the President's message on the Indirect damage question sent to the United States Senate on Monday: To the Senate of Gie United States: I transmit herewith the correspondence re? cently taken place-ret-pectlng the divisions of opinion which have arisen betweeu'thts gov? ernment and Great Britain with regard to the powers of the tribunal of arbitrai iou created under the treaty signed ut. Washington May 8, 1871. I respectfully invite, me attention of the Senate to the proposed article submitted by tne British Government with tho object ol removing the differences which seem to threaten the prosecution of the arbitration, and request an expression by the Senate ot their disposition' In regard to advising and consenting lo the formal adoption of an arti? cle such as ls proposed by the British Govern? ment. The Senate ls aware that the consul? tation wlih that body ia advance of cuterlng into agreements wiib foreign Si au-s has many precedents. lu the early part of the republic, General Washington repeatedly usked their advice upon pending questions willi such powers. Th? most Impart mt precedent ls that ol tho Oregon boundary treaty, In 184C. The Importance of the results hanging upon the present state ol the treaty with Great Britain leads me to follow these lormer pre? cedents, and to dct-lre the counsel of the Sen? ate in advance of agreeing to the proposition ol Great Brliain. U. 8. GRANT. Washington, May 13, 1872. The following is the proposal referred to. It ls in tbe form o? u telegram from General Schenck to Secretary Fish, and is dated Lon? don, May 10, 1872 : Lord Granville, a few moments since, sub? mitted to me, In person, the following draft ot an article which. If the Government ol' the United States think fit to adopt, will be accepted by her Majesty's government. I made no comment on lt, but said I would tele? graph lt to you immediately: "Whereasthe Government ol lier Britannic Mnjesiy has contended, lu recent correspon? dence wilb the Government of the Lionel Stales, us follows, viz: That such indirect claims as those lor the national lusses, stated in the case presented on the part ol thc Gov? ernment of the United States to the tribunal ot arbitration at Geneva to have bceu sus? tained by the loss In the transfer of the American commercial marine to the British flag, the enhanced payments of insurance, the prolongation of ihe war, and the addition ol a large sum to the cost ul the war and the suppression ot the rebellion-firstly, were not Included lu the Treal y ol Washington; and further and secondly, should not be admitted In principle aa growing out ot the acts com? mitted by particular vessels alleged to have been enabled to commit depredations on the shipping of a b'lllgi-reul by reason of such want ut due diligence ia lhe performance ol the neutral obligations asiliat which Is Imput? en by the United states io Great Britain; und "Whereas, the President of the United Stales, while adhering to his contention ihat the said claims were included In the treuty, adopts for the futuro the principle contained In the second of the said contentions os lar as to declare that it will herealter cuide the con? duct of the Government of the United States, aud the two countries are, therefore, agreed in this respect.

[From the Chicago TrlouDe.] The campaign ls fast drifting' beyond the control of the party managers on all sides. It widens and deepens, like a crevasse in the Mississippi. Yesterday ten men might have stopped ii; now ten thousand could not. It will overwhelm the conventions that meet to oppose it. And it will bear onward Into the Presidential chair the largest-hearted, klndpst souled, and most Democratic of American statesmen, Horace Greeley. A Great Democrutlc Authority Gives Advice to Democrats. [From the Mosoor! Republican ] It ls next to certain that no Democrat will be presented for the Presidency lo this con? test. We cannot think of one eminent Demo? crat who would ark for, or even accepta nomi? nation at Baltimore. The act would make him responsible tor the Inevitable re-election of Grant and the continued ascendancy of Radi? calism; and the most popular and trusted man in the party may well quail bet?re the stern reckoning that would follow such an event. The Cincinnati ticket offers to us all the con? ditions That any possible subdivision of the con? test can be made to yield, and. Indeed, all that we can reasonably ask for. It offers to us the certainty ot a Liberal President and a Demo? cratic House, while a third ticket offers us nothing more Than a continuation ot tho evils which we are now enduring. Voice of the Democratic Prem. The Ut. Louis Republican or the 8th Instant, after a careful examination ot the Democratic newspapers on its exchange Hst, in order to as? certain the manner lu which they viewed the nominations of the Cincinnati Convention, ar? rived at tue following result: Ot D-mocrutic papers which favor astralgh-out nomination by the Democratic Convention lhere, were eleven; of those which spoke well of the ticket, but await the action of the Democratic Convention before committing themselves positively, there were twenty-five; and ol those which unhesitatingly commend (he ticket to the support of ihn Democratic party there were sixty-four. The names of all these papers were given, and include the most in? fluential Democratic Journals In all parts of the country. Since this list was published several of the eleven mentioned in ike first class, as lu favor of a Democratic nomination, have greatly modified their vlewp, while some of those In the second close have become en? thusiastic workers for Greeley. 1 he Repub? lican itself ls the most influential and widely circulated Democratic paper In the Southwest, and is an ardent and effective supporter of the Cincinnail ticket. Obsolete Reasoning. (From the New Y..rk San.] The strongest arguments yet presented against the support ot Horace Greeley by the democracy are-thal twenty years ago be wrote against that party, and wrot? strongly. More recent facts of the same sort-mlghl have been adduced. For instance, lt Is not yet len years since Greeley wrote very strongly against slavery; and yet the vast majority cf the people who were then arrayed on the Bide of that institution are now-the earnest advo? cates ot Horace Greeley's election as Presi? dent. The real questions are whether there ls any vital principle set lorth In the Cincinnati platform wi<h which the Democrats who will vote next November are not in accord, and whether Horace Greeley's acceptance of that plulform ls sincere and earnest. It may do for toBsils to go back a quarter ot a* century to as? certain whether a set of principles and a can? didate are worthy ot support; but the living men ot this day are not of that son.

[Washington Correspondence Boston Post ] Among the various rumors of movements by the administrai on men for combinations lo harmonize at Philadelphia for some one In place of Grant la one In which one thousand men of the Republican party offer to give one thousand dollars each to General Grant If he will withdraw rrom th* cuntest. A Now Eng? land man, well known, and one of the niore said band of one thousand, matte the offer to General (?rant. Such ls the story us your cor? respondent gets it from a respectable Repub? lican. Mr. On ?1? y's Alleged "Dictation." [From the Richmond Dispatch Everybody has lek anxious to know what Mr. Greeley wi 1 do in Ihe event of Hie nom? ination ot a Democratic ticket. Mr. Greeley very wisely and properly replies to the ques? tioning on this subject that he wjjl not remain in the 3eld after success is rendered hopeless by the idle nomination ol'a Democratic ticket. How could he, with a proper sell-pride, do BO? How could he, with a proper regard for the welfare of the country? He would not and could not be guilty of an act BO suicidal as lo continuo in the field with inevitable defeat to himself and the best interests of the country staring him In the face. Like Sterne when be met the ass In the narrow alley, ho will un? doubtedly give way and leave the whole pas? sage to his uncompromising antagonist. The South In the Canvass. [From the Richmond Whig.] There is certainly no reason why the peop!e of the South should allow themselves to be drawn away from the Liberal movement by a few men who have constituted themselves the leaders of the Northern Democracy. We have Interests at stake far exceeding In magnitude any they may havp. We are concerned about relieving ourselves from burdens they have never groaned uuder. They are concerned about the offices and honors. All their Inter? ests are personal and party interest?; ours rise above all such petty considerations. We must get relief. A magnanimous party see? ing that it can of itself, and? by ll self, accom? plish nothing, ought to * step forward and tender its sympathy and assistance to the Liberal movement; and magnanimous Democratic leaders ought to be foremost in the good work. They should remember that they have a country to save, as well as u party to serve. Let tnetn, if they so desire, preserve their organization, looking to the luture to reward them. Bi:t to our mind, th? only way in which the Northern Democratic party can have a future, is by helping on the Libe? ral movement. It they deieat that move? ment by running a separate ticket, they ntl) BO arouse public lurtlgnailon that (hey will never dare to appear on the arena berealter. They will (Ink to rise no more under the weight of odium that will be visited upon them. The Voice of thc German Press. The Westliche Post of St. Louis devotes a large poi Lion of its space to the expression which the nomination of Greeley and Brown at Cine nnatl has drawn from the German press ail over the country. It gives full ex? tracts Irom no fewer than tineen leading Ger mun newspapers upon the political situation, and the great question lt involves to Hie re? public. The Post ca ls attention lo this exhi? bition oi German feeling and impression as follows: "Public opinion changes as frequently and even as quickly as lt ls formed. The last im? portant change In thc political situation Justi des ns in devoting the large space which we give to-day to thc spirit ot Hie German-Ameri? can press. Although the selection ol Horace Greeley as the standard-bearer of ihe reiorm movement, which was chiefly inaugurated and supported by the Germans, was a great surprise io the Germans themselves, yet no sinule German paper which formerly advo? cated Ihe movement has deserted its colors. Here and there there are a few wavering be? tween feeling and reason, and are emerging from their predilections into a full under? standing of the situation,-and show symptoms of a rupid Improvement. The conviction ls everywhere lorcing itself upon them that as between Horace Greeley and U. 8. Grant there can be no question among the Germans, and that every vote Greeley loses Grant gains." SPARKS FROM THE WIRES. -It ls reported tho*, the Tripoli was totally wrecked on ihe Irish CouBt. The passengers were saved. -The Irish strikers and the German labor? ers had an extensive tight at the works of the Metropolitan Gas Company, In New York yes? terday. The sirlkers wore driven off.
