Kinard, Newberry. Samuel Drouthitt, Greenville C. H. Wm. Mooro, Abbeville C. H. Julius Poppe, Anderson C. H. Comments of thc Press. Tho New York Herald concludes its comments on tho action of the Convention as follows: The endorsement of tho course of President Johnson and the measures of his administration, is emphatic and without equivocation. The finan? cial legislation and the jobs of Con? gress aro not shown up with the strength and earnestness that they should have been, nor are the dangers to the financial interest of tho coun? try, which will follow a continuance of their financial policy, pointed out .with sufficient force and clearness. A much stronger case could have been made on this subject, for it is one of tho weakest points of . the ra? dicals, and is equal in importance to their efforts to prevent the restoration of the country. It is a question that the people of the North will realize quicker than any other, for it is being brought home to them every hour in tho day. Nothing would suit tho ra? dicals better than to divert the issue from this point. But tho public have the records of Congress and their ef? forts at usurpation and civil war be? fore them. They now are presented with the proceedings, tho address and the resolves of this first gather? ing, growing out of the uprising of the people in support o? the Union and the Constitution. To them these records are submitted as tho great jury of the republic, for their deci? sion at tho approaching Congressional elections. Let the movement, which has so auspiciously commenced, be followed up with a vigorous cam? paign, and we have no fears of the result. It will work out a revolution, peaceful, yet effective and lasting. No person can longer doubt that the central States, commencing with Pennsylvania, in October, will over? whelmingly repudiate tho radical usurpers of tho present Congress. The Now York News says: They declare distinctly in favor of the right of the South to bo repre? sented in Congress, and make that the main issue of the fall campaign. . We wish that they had made a more explicit declaration against the en? forcement of tho test oath, but that could hnrdly have been expected under all tho circumstances. We think they acted wisely in adopting tho resolutions touching slavery, tho national debt, and tho Confederate debt; tho South will thus have an opportunity to put at rest the absurd suspicions that they desire to re-establish shivery and to repudiate the national debt. Whilo they feel a natural sensitiveness about contribut? ing to the payment of a debt which was contracted for their overthrow and ruin, the Southern people feel and know that tho honor and faith of the nation oro pledged to its pay? ment, and not ono of them would vote to repudiato it. As to tho debt contracted by the Confederacy, there is not a mau in all tho South who has over thought for an instant of its be? ing assumed by the United States. The World concludes its article as follows: Probably a majority of tho poople of the North, and certuiuly the great body of tho people of tho South, have met, through their delegates, and have made a public renewal of friend? ship, with mutual attestations of con? fidence and esteem. Thu two great sections are no longer at variance; but a party of malignant disunionists assume to rulo and dismember tho country against the sense of a majo? rity of tho citizens. Including the whole country, tho friends of tho Union outnumber its enemies by at least two to ono, as tho ensuing elec? tions will demonstrate. Tho ques? tion) therefore, is now rapidly assum? ing the shape, whether tho majority shall rule; or, in other words, whe? ther republican government is to be continued in the United Shite?.. There can be no^doubt whatever that a large majority ?f our voting citizens are opposed to the disunion policy of the radicals. Tho Convention has disentangled and simplified the politics of tho im? m?diate future. It has constructed a bridge for tho President, which en? ables him to act efficiently and boldly with tho friends of his policy,? and has united them in a compact, organ? ized, indomitable mass. Doubtful voters can no longer bo deceived. Nobody can again be mado to believe that ho is supporting the President while voting for tho candidates of radicals. Hereafter, every man who is not with tho President is against him. It is now a contest in which there can bo no neutrality, and in which every man who opposes the President will bo branded as a dis unionist. The Now York Sun says: Of tho principles which tho Con I vention announces ns their platform, I there can be but ono opinion, in the minds of men whoso opinions aro not warped by partisan feeling. It is strictly loyal throughout, true to the Union, true to the Constitution, and true to liberty. It declares emphati? cally that the Union is indissoluble; that 'no State or Convention of States has tho right to withdraw from the Union. ' There is not a word in the platform that can bo construed into a palliation of tho rebellion, and, in endorsing ibis leaturo of it, the Southern delegates renounced the right of secession, now and forever. I The seventh section of the platform, I which relates to tho question of slavery, gives the radicals no ground for fault-finding upon that point. It declares that 'slavery is abolished and forever prohibited, and there ia neither design nor pnrpose on the part of the Southern Stiftes that it should over be re-established xipou the soil or within, tho jurisdiction ol the Southern States.' This language puts the South upon an unmistaka? ble record with regard to slavery, and leaves no foundation for cavil on thc part of-Northern men. The status of tho freedmen, as declared by thh platform, also disarms criticism 'The enfranchised slaves, in all tl? States of tho Union, should receive in common with all their inhabitants equal protection in every right o person und property.' What mon than equality with tho whites, in re spoct to the rights of person and pro perty, can thc freedmen expect They must have tho ballot, it may b said. Tho platform makes no obj ec tion to that, but it declares that al tho States have the constitutions right to prescribe tho qualification for the elective franchise-a righ which hus never, Until recently, beei disputed. The platform also declare that tho Government is under no obii gation to and never will assume th rebel debt; tho national debt, how ever, must bo held sacred and invic labio; and that 'it is the duty of th National Government to recogniz the services of tho Federal soldiei and sailors in tho conflict just ended Tho Richmond Times, after objec ing to ono or two of the declarado of principles, adds: After a long civil war, which wt waged with unusual ferocity and vii dictiveness, wo could not have e: pocted grouter unanimity of sent I mont than that which marked tl late Convention. We must submit 1 some difference of opinion with or friends, or become tho sport of tl revolutionists and the vassals of tl freedmen. If tho principles of tho conserv; tive party aro acceptable to tl Northern people, wo shall very soc bo restored to all of our politic I rights. In spito, therefore, of the charact of some of the resolutions, tho pe pie of tho South havo every reason congratulate themselves upon tl complete success of the first Nation Convention which hos been held f six years. Tho position of our de' gates was a most embarrassing on but tho policy of reticence and ca tion was so obvious that wo rejoi they did nothing which was calcul; ed to produce dissension. Au officer who greatly distinguish I himself in tho wars upon our fro ! tiers was once asked to sum up t duty of a soldier. His reply wi "To fight Indians." Until ihcirgrn upon our throat is relaxed, wo shot regard all conventions, platforms a addresses merely as weapons for t demolition of radicalism. When tl party is routed und put to the swo: wo will hang up our bruised ara and greatly improve and liberal our platforms of principles. Tho military .tuthoritics in N 1 Orleans havo published a statemi j placing tho total number killed the recent riot at thirty-eight, s tho wounded atf one hundred n j forty-six. Judge Howell, tho Pr< ?lent of the Convention, publishes address to tho loyal people of Lou ana, showing tho legality of tho bo but saving nothing about its assembling. \ SPECIAL J^OTICES.

I iBBESr-ONSEBLE CoUNTERFEITHHS.- One of j tho most serious annoyances which the proprietors bf an article in unusual de? mand havo to encounter is the piratical imitation of it by parties equally unscru lous and irresponsible. If an individual or a firm with means engages in this nefari? ous business, tho damages awarded by a ??court of justice for the offence are collect ; able, and it is some satisfaction to the I party wronged that the wronger ia made to suffer; but in most cases the pirates are I men of straw, who cannot respond iu dol? lars to the law's award. HOSTEITEE'S STOMACH BITTEUS being a standard tonic, marketable everywhere, and representing tho value affixed to it as accurately as a national bank bill repre? sents the amount expressed on its face, has been extensively counterfeited and simu? lated. The proprietors havo apunt many thousand dollars in hunting up and hunt down irresponsible individuals and firma who havo given their minds to this dirty work. These parties-some of them, at least-have a way of changi; g their base, though they never change the:." base? ness. When an injunction is laid upon them in ono part of tho country, tin y some? times "vamoose" to another, and try the trick again. In somo cases.it ia necessary to kill them two or three times over. Per? haps tho best thing that can bc done under these circumstances ia to "lay au injunc? tion" upon all who use the Bitters to buy only of dealers whom they can trust. In every city, town and village of the United States and British America, this famous tonic, alterative and protective medicine may bo procured of reliable men of busi? ness. _ Aug 10 b> A NEW AND GUANO EPOCH IN MEDICINE. Dr. Maggiel is the fouuder of a now medi? cal system! Tho quantitariana, whose vast internal doses enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must givo precedence to tho man who restores health and appe? tite, wi"b from ono to two of bia extraordi- j nary Pills, and cures tho moat virulent j sores with a box or so of his wonderful and all-healing Salve. Theao two great speci? fies of tho Doctor aro fast superseding all tho stereotyped nostrums of the day. Ex? traordinary eurea by Maggiel's Pilla and Salvo havo opened tho eyes of the public to tho inefficiency of tho (so-called) remedies of others, and upon which people havo so long blindly depended. Maggiel'a Pills arc not of the class that aro swallowed by tho dozen, and of which overy box full taken creates an absoluto necessity for another. Ono or two of Maggiel's Pills suffices to placo the bowels in perfect order, tono the stomach, create an appetite and render the spirits light and buoyant. There is no griping and no reaction in tho form of con? stipation. If thc liver is affected, ita func? tions aro restored; and if tho nervous Sys? tran is foible, it is invigorated. This last quality makes the medici nos very desirable tor the wants of delicate females. Ulcerous and eruptivo diaoaseg aro literally extin? guished by tho disinfectant power of Mag? giel'a Salvo.
