It is evident that the postponement
.ot the proposed tuiiff nutil hov* De-1
member was tho rvsult <>! un ?ppm- ?
?ifension, on tho part of tho radicals,
that, if they wont before the people
with this bill of abominations, they
would be beaten in tho West, North?
west, and in tho middle Stetes. They
now go into tho canvass without
. shouldering this heavy responsibility,
:oid, while they say to New Euglaud,
your interests will be protected by
the passage of the bill, next winter,
while, in electioneering throughout
the West and North-west, they will
declaim against its most odious fea?
tures, and point to this vote for jKist
ponoment as evidence <>f their hos?
tility to the measnre.
v We rather think this game of the
political tricksters will fail. The tariff
programme has been extensively pub?
lished and thoroughly canvassed
throughout the producing regions of
the country, whose interests its pro?
visions were designed to crush, for
tho benefit of New Eugland manu?
facturers und Pennsylvania iron?
mongers. The radicals may try theil
best to keep the tariff out of view
and ignore it us one of their men?
sures, but tho masses ol' tho people
will not be so easily deceived, and th?
faction will have to meet this ?pies
tion squarely at the ballot-box, where,
wa have no doubt, it will contribute
to their overthrow. The tricksters o
tho Star Chamber have overleapec
the mark.
The New York World exposes tin
leaders in getting up this prohibitory
tariff. Thad. Stevens owns iron work;
in Gettysburg, and wants to plunde
the people to make them more profit
able. Morrill owns marble quarrie.
in Vermont. Griswold, from Troy
manufactures railroad iron, nud there
fore the people must not buy tim
article cheaper than he is disposed U
sell it. W. E. Dodge is a wire-workc
in Connecticut, and has a large stool
on hand. And so throughout th?
whole list of these suffering proteo
tionists. As to tiie tariff, whethe
its postponement helps the radical
?ir not in tho coming elections, th
people will be ghid that it has no
become a law.
To thc People uf meilland.
We hope that tho people of thi
District will respond generally am
promptly to the call issued by th
Mayor of this city for a public meet
ing, on next Monday. We hivv
already noticed thc importance of th.
South being represented in the Con
vention to be held in Philadelphia
in August, and have extracted froi
our exchanges, North and South, re?
tons and arguments to KIIOW th:
..very instinct of patriotism and dut
to ourselves, as a portion ol' the pe<
plo of tho United States, should ii
duce us to give our aid and count*
nanoo to this national effort to ove
throw radicalism, and prevent un
further evils to our distracted countr;
The proposed Convention will rn
bind tho people of the South wi
may attend it to any existing politic)
party of the North. I's object
simply to take such meas uros UK wi
best sustain President Jolin.sc
against the nefarious designs of tl
Jacobina, in Congress. It is not on
.lue to the President, but to nil,
other sections, who are deteriuim
to maintain the Constitution, that >
-dionld co-operate with them in t1
great work. If we have sinc?re
accepted thc situation, and thc co
ditions embraced in thc Presiden
policy-as we profess to have done
then it is clearly our duty to acce
the invitation to meet our frient
And for what purpose? To the c:
that all the States shall at once
restored to their political relations
the Union, the Constitution be mai
fained and peace bless thc win
country.
This is tho object of the Convt
lion, to be represented in which t
people ol' tho State are now called

ht/KL in tho -V?//ional intelligencer, of
Satm-diiy. from which we mako the
following extract :
"Tho policy initiated hy President
Lincolu, to restore national unity,
was adopted and curried forward liv
President Johnson; thc States whieij
lind been in rebellion were, under
this benign policy-, resuming their
legitimate luuctions; the people had
hun down their arius, and those who
had been in insurrection wore return?
ing to their allegiance; the Constitu?
tion had been vindicated and the
Union was supposed to bo restored,
when a check was pat apon thc pro?
gress to national harmony nm! pros?
perity thus dawning upon tho coun?
try. On tho assembling of Congress,
all efforts towards I nion and nation?
ality became suddenly paralyzed; tho
measures of reconciliation which the
President lind, from thc time he en?
tered upon his duties, pursued with
eminent success, were assailed, and
their beneficent purpose, to a great
extent, defeated; attempts were, made
to impose conditions precedent upon
States before permitting them to ex?
ercise their Constitutional rights:
loyal Senators ami Representatives
from tile States which had been in
rebellion were refused admittance
into Congress-the people were de?
nied rightful Constitutional represen?
tation-and eleven States were and
are excluded from all participation in
tho Uovernmont. These proceed?
ings, which conflict with the funda?
mental principles on which on;
whole governmental system is found
ed, are iceneiaiing and consolidating
seclionnl animosity, and. ii" long per?
sisted in, must eventuate in penna
nent alienation, [rejoice, therefore,
in a movement which has for it
object thc Union in one bond of lov<
fd' the people of our common conn
try. and which invites to council atti
to political action the citizens o
every Stab"1 mid Territory, from tin
Atlantic to tho Pacific, and from tin
Lakes to the Golf. The centralizing
theory that the loyal and qualifi?e
Senators and Representatives fron
eleven States shall be excluded fron
Congress, and that those States nm
the people of those States^, shall not
participate in the Government, i
scarcely less repugnant than that o
secession itself.'"
The Secretary has very correct!;
traced the destructive course of tin
dominant faction in Congress. The;
and they alone, without the shadov
of pretext ns io the success ol' an;
statesmanlike measure, or the ad
vocacy of any hdtv national policy
have kept the country, for tho las
seven mouths, in a heat and ferment
wasting the people's money, and eon
tinually engaged in thwarting au
measure likely to give pence to th
country.
The writer truthfully exposes th
almost certain tendency of these prc
ceedings-generating and consolidai
ing sectional animosity, and wilie
"mast eventuate in permanent aliei
ation"-a result which nil good, nie
must deplore, and to prevent whic
should be the highest aim ol' over
patriot in the land. Surely, thu pei
pie of the North cannot lie deaf to a
these solemn words ol' warning fror
some of the ablest men of the prcsei
?lay and generation.

"Druid, " the special correspondent
ol the Xe.. York. J&ttt, wrote Friday:
I lt.- Cabinet ia at last dissolved.
It is understood, thia evening, that
Stanton, Harlan, Speed and Denni?
son waited upon the President, this
morning, and severally tendered their
resignations, which were promptly
accepted. Several months ago, when
thc: President became convinced that
Stanton, Harlan and Speed would
not support his restoration policy, ho
conveyed to each ono of them the
plain ' intimation that their resigna?
tions would bo acceptable and were
desired, and ho has been waiting ever
since for them to resign. The indeli?
cacy which they manifested by re?
maining in a Cabinet where they
wore not wanted is only equaled by
their impudeuce now in resigning
Ivcause the President will not yield
his i-herished convictions und aban?
don his policy.
Mr. Randall will probably become
Postmaster-General; Mr. Johnson,
Mr. Cowan and Mr. Doolittle would
be called to thc Cabinet if their pre?
sence iu the Senate was not so vitally
necessary, den. Dix will probably
become Secretary of War. Mr. Se?
ward and Mr. McCnlloch will cer?
tainly retain their places in the new
Cabinet.
Thc Washington Wm; ?d' Saturday
evening, say* :
"It has been quite generally re?
ported to-day that Attorney-General
Speed has sent in, or at least has
written, his resignation. We cannot
learn that it hus been received nt the
White House, though parties have
stated within the last forty-eight
bonis that they have seen it in mann- |
script. The previous rn ni o rs to the
same effect were evidently without !
foundation, as the Attorney-General
was present at the session of thc
Cabinet yesterday, while Governor
Dennison, whose resignation had been
tendered previous to the Cabinet !
meeting of yesterday, was not.'"
V telegram, dated Washington,
liiili instant, says:
'.Attorney-General Speed bas re?
signed. Judge Stanburry, of Ohio, j
or [frowning, of Illinois, will be lus !
successor. The resignation ol* Harlan
is an event t?> be daily expected."
lt was rumored in Washington yes?
terday that the President, has notified
Secretary Stanton that his resignation
would be accepted, and that he. as
well as Mr. Speed, will send in their
letters of withdrawal to-day. Mr.
Harlan will not resign until compell?
ed to. (?ov. Han dal I i.-. popularly be?
lieved to l?e tlu' successor of Mr.
Dennison. General Grant will take
charge of th? War Office, and Judge
Browning will have thc Interior De?

nite than these telegrams bebo.- wc

A despatch to the Now York Tri?
bune says:
In the Republican caucus, lost
night, General Banks took thc chair,
and stated that the object of the
meeting was cither t<> tlx thc. date of
adjournment of both Houses, or to
agree upon a recess.
7ilv. Ashley favored a recess. Se?
nators, he said, could stay in Execu?
tive session, to prevent removals from
office. He was sure that lour mem?
bers of the Cabinet would [go ont
j after the Philadelphia Convention.
A member from Wisconsin, whose
I name the Tribune reporter could not
; hear distinctly, offered a resolution
j binding each member of the caucus
; to abide by its action, and to main?
tain secrecy as to its proceedings.
Messrs. Hale and Bingham opposed
I this.
While Mr. Bingham was speaking,
i a member jumped up and remarked
I that he did not sec thu use of pledg?
ing to secrecy, us there was nu au?
dience present. Several members
inquired where the audience was, and
I it was soon found that a colored man
had found his way into the gallery,
I and was listening very attentively tc
j what was being said. Tho door
' keeper was immediately sent aftei
j him. and he was arrested.. On being
. interrogated, hu said he had come tc
! soo Congress. He was asked how lu
j had got into a caucus meetiug, am
; he replied that lie found a door open.
\ and went in, not knowing that visit
i ors were denied admittance.
The resolution of the Wiscousii
member was amended so as to relate
only to secrecy.
Here followed an animated discus
I sion on a resolution condemning tin
Philadelphia Convention, which wa
\ offered hy Thaddeus Stevens.
Mr. Raymond discoursed, as state?
in yesterday's Tribut**, asserting tba
when he favored th? call ir was hi
understanding that it was to he
Union Convention. Mr. Hale, o
New York, ?aid the New York Kern
ing Past, one ot the best Rep?blica
papers in the country, endorsed th
Convention. Mr. Wilson, of Mass
ehusetts, said he differed from Mi
Hale in his estimate of the Past. I
wa-, trn if -wis nu able paper, and li
had great respect for its editor, br
one ot its proprietors had been coi
victed of an infamous crime, an
only escaped punishment by tech rr
ealities. Mr. Hale said bc was io
quitted on the merits of the eas.
Mr. Wilson denied this. He wi
acquitted ou a inert quibble, an
there were two ot lier charges pendit
against him.
"Mr. Wilson then referred to tl
President and bis coins,-, bitterly d
uounciug both. He knew now. wht
he had been unwilling to belier
heretofore, that the President wi
about to sell the country out to tl
Denn ?eratic party.
? Mr. Cook (Illinois') offered the ft
lowing resolution :
/'<.>.////?/-./. That Congress ought ii
to adjonrii itnlil it pusses some law

from office.
Mr. Shellubnrgo, offered the f?

Ursa! m/, Thal a committee of fi

lion the time of adjournment or i
cess, and what shall bf?done in rega
to keeping o\u- friends in office.
( hi motion, the committee w
made to consist of nine three Sen
tors iiinl si\ Representatives.
Mr. Boutwell [Massachusetts) th
took the dour, and in au exoit
manlier said that the battle had coi
menccd, and the President won

Mr. Garfield (Ohio) took simi]

Mr. Harding (Illinois) said he w

still he thought something ought
be done, as was suggested, in t
matter of appointments.
Mr. Ingersoll I illinois; said

As there seeins to he conflicting j
testimony. of ar otherwise trust-j
worthy character as to dUucviug tor j
want of f<?od in South Carolina, and, j
as Cen. Sickles has disapproved of
tho ration returns, upon your state-'
ment that tho want is very much ex?
aggerated, and as these returns have
been referred to nie for official notion,
I respectfully request from you some
statement that will justify me for
withholding supplies, for really it is j
not the purpose to give where there :
is not absolute want, and, in no case |
whatever, to encourage idleness, but j
the direct reverso.

Major-General, j
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, S. C., !
COLUMBIA, July!), 18(iC.
GENERAL: I have th? honor to ac
knowledge the receipt of your lotter j
of the ?td instant, informing me that
there wr.is trustworthy testimony as
to tho sntt'ering for want of food by I
the poor in South Carolina, of both
races, and that lien. Sickles had dis- ?
approved ol* the ration return upon j
my statement that the want is very
much exaggerated, hus j ?ist been re- ;
ceived; and 1 hasten tn reply, with ai
view ol* correct! ig any misapprehen?
sion on the subject, glowing ont of
my conversation with C?en. Sickles.
There is great need of distributing
rations, through the Freedmen's-Bu?
reau, in every District in the State.
In some, tho necessity i.s greater than j
in others, and what I intended to im- j
press upon f?en. Sickles was. that
applications were made by nuiny per
sons, whit** and colored, who were i
not lit subjects of relio! , mid that, if j
all the stories which were told of the !
officers of the Bureau, in different1
sections, wen' to be credited, the dis?
tribution would embrace t<??> wide a
range.
I regret that C?en. Sickles should
have understood from me that the,
necessity for issuing rations to very
many people, white and colored, bad
passed. As early as March last an I
estimate was m ule in the Chesterfield j
District, and it was found that there
were on ly seven bushels of corn ff?
each person in the District. With- !
out feeding any portion of thin to the |
stock, the supply was inadequate to i
bread the people. Other districts are ;
nearly us destitute. Ju Piekens, 1 i
am informed that some 600 families
aie without sufficient supplies ot
bread-stuffs. The scarcity is also
great in Barnwell, Beaufort, Colle?
r?n, Clarendon, Williamsburg, "Lex-1
ington, S partan burg, lancaster, Ker?
shaw. Richland and Fairfield, and
tho local authorities eaunot possibly .
furnish the needy. Tho tax levied
fi?r thc support of thc i?oor is a dis?
trict tax, audit happens th ? in those
sections where the scarcity i- most
fol? the general population ure lea
abb' to pay a local tax, and hence
there arc thousands in the State, j
white and colored, who must suffer I
for the commonest means of subsist?
ence, unless rations ali' issued from ;
your Bureau; and 1 regret extremely |
that any opinion ot mine should have |
been so understood ?us to justify or :
require the suspension ol' thc issue of
the rations which it was proposed to j
distribute in this State. My object I
and intention was simply to guard
against the issue to persons without
claim, and thereby increase idleness
and vagabondism. Doubtless 1 did
not sufficiently explain my views, and
(?en. Sickles was justified in reaching I
tho conclusion he did. A month ago i
it was generally believed that about!
the time ot* the wheat harvest an ave-;
rage ?Top would bo made, but sim e
the crop has been thrashed out it is I
found not to exceed half an average :
crop, and far less relief will be fur-!
nishod the needy fruin that source
than 1 liml anticipated. 1 therefore!
earnestly request that you will have
the rations issued as estimated for by j
your agents in thc State, and which '?
was disapproved by Gen. Sickles,
.^lop T instructions to distributing
agents may be, if tl y have not al?
ready b< en, given, to guard against
imposition from those who are not
proper subjects of relief. 1 have writ?
ten, to-day. to (icu. Sickles, and have
explained to him thc extent to which
I intended my conversation with him
