Delegates from about forty Counties met to confer with them. Ex-Governor Moore was made Presi? dent of the meeting. A Committee on Resolutions reported, at 7 p. m., a series of resolutions endorsing the Democratic nomination and plat? form, urging the people to vote at the November election, and to take the laws as they find them, and de? nouncing the attempt of the Legisla? ture to cast the electoral vote of the State. The resolutions were adopted. NASHVILLE, August 19.-A party of men in masks approached a fur? nace in Wayne County, where the employees were armed and drilling. A compromise was effected, whereby the furnace men cease drilling and surrender their arms to the State authorities. The maskers on their return were fired on by the sheriff's posse from an ambuscade, and after returning the fire, dispersed. Three citizens were wounded-one serious? ly; several horses were killed. ATLANTA, August 19.-Tho Repub 1 i ca ii celebration, yesterday, closed with a torch-light procession, com? posed of some 300 negroes. Between 10 and ll P. M. some drunk and un? ruly negroes were arrested by two policemen, in front of the National Hotel. The police were proceeding to the guard h mise with the prison? ers, when a mob of negroes pursued and attempted a rescue. The police resisted, when #the negroes com? menced using clubs. Tho policemen were knocked down and the prisoners escaped. At this time some person in tho mob gave word to "fire." The negroes fired, wounding one of tho police. Tho tire was returned by the police and discharges followed in rapid succession. One negro was killed and two wounded. Tho negroes fled, but rallied near tho guard house, and moved forward to attack the police. By this timo the whole police force and a largo num? ber of citizens were on tho ground, prepared for a conflict. Tho negioes saw tho determination to protect the lawful authorities nnd rapidly dis? persed. At one time n serious riot was apprehended. The Republicans have chosen H. P. Farrow and Amos T. Akerman electors for the State at large. BOSTON, August 19.-George H. Peudleton, responding to a serenade at the Parker House, said ho was going to Maine to speak.

Affair* In Washington. WASHINGTON, August 19.-Experi? enced hits demonstrated that mixed races in the fire department is a mis? take. The negroes have been dis c'iji?ged and white men re-employed. BPJS stated that during the recent trial of mixed firemen, tho displaced whites havo been patient and uncom? plaining, and in no instance have they threatened or used violence. The Chairman of the Committee of Five appointed by tho recent Mis? sissippi Convention, writes that there is an evident intention on the part of tho Democrats of the exclud? ed Statos to voto at the coming Pre? sidential election; if the least encou? ragement is given by Johnson, they will undoubtedly vote. The Chair? man adds, that he fears tho bill passed by Congress is not sufficiently explioitin all respects; and concludes that the Republicans of Mississippi aro anxiously expecting a September session. Their very existence as a partiy and ns individuals depend? upon Congressional measures of relief. Tno property of the Alexandria and, Georgetown RaUro-vd-office, engines, cars, Sec.-at Alexandria, was seized to-day, under an order of ?he eirouit court of Alexandria County, by Wm. H. Marbury, Receiver. Later advices indicate Indian out? rages exaggerated. Adjutant-Gene? ral McAfee reports eight buried and three missing, five wounded on Solo? mon's River.

C.) paper says the following reply was made by nu in? telligent negro to a carpet-bagger, who had lectured him on his Demo? cratic proclivities, and had become a member of tho Democratic party: "Under your teaching, wo have alienated from us tho mass of thc white people North, as well as South; you have got the offices and emolu? ments, while wo have dono tho work and stand out in tho cold. For one, I am done with you." INCENDIARY.-An unsuccessful at? tempt was made, last Saturday night, to burn tho residence of E. J. bloody, Esq. Au old house partially torn down, within eight or ten feet of bis diuiug-room, was sot on fire about 3 o'clock at night, and after the fire was discovered, it was only by the manly exertions of the freed? men on tho premises that tho resi? dence was saved.-Marion Star. Tho Petersburg Index says: On board a train going from Weldon to Raleigh, N. C., two or three days ago', was a largo number of whites and negroes. Wo are informed by a friend, that on a count of the latter, nearly 200 were found to be Demo? cratic in principle. Wo ulso under? stand that many of tho leaders in tho loil leagues in tho vicinity of Gaston aro coming out all right politically. Thad. Stevens, a day or two before he died, was told of tho recent acci dont to Ben. Butler, in Worcester, when ho wus thrown from his car? riage. "It gives me great paiu," said tho dying commoner; "great Eain." Then closing his eyes, ns waB is habit in meditation, he murmured between bis thin lips, "Great pain. His d-n neck wasn't broke, you say?"-New York World. . RATTLESNAKE.-On Monday night last, Gen. Elly Godbold hud a rattle? snake killed in his yard, measuring five feet five inohes in length, and eight inohes round, with eight rat? tles. One of tho General's little grand-daughters discovered this rep? tile when she was within six inches of its head.-Marion Crescent. Tim Fri:?.?l?Mcy-Tlic Probabilities of , f - ? . .*.?. CanyjMut^ . . Kentucky has doubled bor Demo? cratic majority in one year, aud that is a revolutionary fact. Majorities do not vary at such a rate, ordinari? ly. Hitherto, the home of Henry Clay has given Democratic majori? ties, but not such aa are given this year. Other parties have had a very respectable bearing in that State. She was ono of the two Southern Slates that gave Lincoln a vote, in 1860, and, in the some year, only Virginia and Tennessee, of tho Southern States, out-voted her on the Bell and Everett ticket. Even in 1864, McClellan's mojoritv "was only 36,000. Nothing like so in? tensely Democratic, in tho past, as Southern States, generally, she gives the Democratic candidate this year a majority of 90,000-a vote that indi? cates a movement of tho people scarcely less than a stampede. Ne? gro suffrage is held responsible, for this chango, by tho local chroniclers, and the chroniclers are, in all proba? bility, right. Negro suffrage, sc avowedly the policy of tho Republi? can party that its orators can nc longer make any denial, bas nppliec a tremendous process of "attrition' to the Republican vote in Kentucky and worked it down to a worthies! qnautity. It will clo thc same, elsewhere Throughout the South, we shall sci this one definite result of negro suf frage-that there will no longer bi any practicable division of tho whit vote, but tho people that have hith crto given a respectable vote to ead of two parties, will now all go to getber, by instinctive agglomeration against the negro suffrage party. Ii Kentucky, the result is clearly seen because there is no negro vote t give respectable proportions to tb other side; but the Democratic ma jority is so great that even the natu ral negro vote of that State-whie would bo about 25,000-could nc have changed the result, if cost. I those States, therefore, in whic negro suffrage is in force, the vote c the negro will not come as a balanc of power between parties-it will nc swell tho weaker side, as that sid appeared in the former political div sions of the people; but, if cast fe the radicals, it will stand alon against the whole white vote. Ht man nature can nover be reduced 1 mathematics, exactly; but, if there . a point in its history very near! capable of positive demonstration, is the force with which tho varioi otherwise hostile elements of a pei pie combine in presence of a cou mon danger. There is no point ? difference between tho people th? will not dwindle to insignificance, t comparison with tho difference b tween black and white. The cons quenco in the Sonth will be that tl Democrats will carry every Soutbei State except South Carolina. R garding tho statistics of elections i to 1860, as well as the recent regi tration, wo should have except? Mississippi, also, but the recent vo on the Constitution indicates th the Democracy rulo there also. 1860, elbven Southern States ga 583,000 votes for tho Democrai candidate and 407,000 for tho Bi and Everett ticket. Doubtless, t Bell and Everett vote represents t proportion of Southern sentime that might have favored tho poli of a reconstructing party of patrio purposes and holding rational vie of politics and of human nature; L against a party to whoso policy neg suffrage is only the preface, t whole white Southern vote of I860 sure to go together, and will make total sufficient to neutralizo t negro vote, and, in addition, balar tho Republican majority of 1864, the popular vote of tho whole coi try. In tho North, tho vote against t Republicans will bo very heavy. ]\1 kuow bow far Democratic misr would go, and what direction it woi take, ami they do not know the Iii of radical madness. Judging it tho past, they find it difficult to ci ceive that tho Republican fury I auy defiuito limit. Hitherto, it ! hesitated at nothing, bas pusl recklessly on wherever hounded ambitious leaders, and rather tl be dragged where such a party wo go, tho people will tako tho cha of revolution with tho Domocn Republicanism, in fact, ia driven i point at which it is desperate, two years, it has stood upon tho fousivo beforo the people. Had popular jealousy of its tendon* been less clearly shown, it wo havo pushed on to tho extremity confiscation and proscription; for leaders felt that these were necess paris of its policy, that these al could give it safe possession of w it had already won. Without c fiscatiou, the results of negro frag?! will slip through its fing Without proscription, the South States cannot bo kept from the toral leaders of the Southern peo Tho Republican party of tho fut therefore, will bo ready for any peration, convinced from its ] that the greatest danger is in ste ing still. There is, then, gre reason than ever why it ?boult kept from power, and this the ] pie evidently feel. Last year gains against the Republican p on Congressional votes had wi out its former majorities and es lished an equality, and, consta increasing, the gains will now a tho balance ou tho other aide: Snoh n change us wo have seen in.. Or?gop, and half snob majorities as Kentucky has given, will present a total to as? tonish and confound political philo? sophers.- flew York Herald. -? Encouraging Prospecta of the Pres IT ?initial Canvnn-Th? Democracy Everywhere at Work. THE CAMPAIGN IN MICHIGAN. The sigus of tho timos are auspi? cious. Never, in the history of po? litical contests, havo tho indications thus early bern so favorable to tho Democracy of the country as to-day. In whatever direction wo turn, the voice of hope and words of cheer greet us. Tho people already begin to tako courage for tho futuro. De? mocratic gatherings everywhere aro largo and enthusiastic, while radical ones are small and spiritless. Tho wholo part}' seem smitten with tho weight of guilt which is upon its leaders. INDIANA AND ILLINOIS. In Indiana and Illinois, our friends are at work nobly and energetically for the redomption of thoso States from tho stigma of radicalism. Hen? dricks nnd others are on the stump, and aro enthusiastically received in every part of tho former State; while Eden and a host of able speakors aro working with determination in Illi? nois, and are by no means without a hope of carrying tho State, notwith? standing the large majority against us two years ago. OHIO. lu Ohio, Peudleton, Ward, Thur mau and others, are all dealing heavy blows upon tho radical front, with every prospect of success. It is claimed that the chango in the Ger? man vote alone, in that State, will secure its electoral voto for Seymoui and Blair. THE NORTH-WESTERN STATES. In Iowa, Minnesota and Wiscon? sin, tho battle is being well fought, and our friends aro very enthusiastic in their efforts to placo these States in tho Democratic column. It is no! at all probable, viewing their condi tion from the present stand-point that wo may receive the victory in al these States, except Iowa-and ever in that our friends are not without hope. The popular changes hav< been largely in our favor, and wil continue to be so up to the election but whether sufficient to overcomi tho enormous radical majority o the past, tho result alone will tell. PENNSYLVANIA. From Pennsylvania, the key-stom in the old Democratic arch, the new: is not only good, but cheering. Ou friends are sanguine of success They are pressing the enemy back a every point along the wholo line, auc intend that their rout shall be fina and complete on the 3d of November NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY. New York and New Jersey an conceded as beyond radical hope The Democracy aro "carrying th war into Africa" in those States with a vengeance. In neither o them have tho disciples of the mun candidate been able to secure a rc spectable number for attendance a their public meetings. Tho tide c enthusiasm and popular feeliug is al on tho Democratic side. NEW ENGLAND. In all New England our friend aro doing battle most gallantly Thc nutmeg State (and whero wi you find a greater?) is going to full maintain its position in the Denic eratic fold; whilo in New Hnmpshk tho bardy Democracy are laborin ardently for tho success of the "fait that this is in them." That the maj* succeed, is by no means imprc bable. DELAWARE AND MARYLAND. Delaware, as usual, is suro for Democratic majority. Marylau stands side by side with her sistc State, and will roll up a large Demi eratic majority. THE SOUTHERN STATES. Throughout the South tho Unie sentiments of tho peopio aro gamin strength, and their supporters ai daily organizing meetings in nun hers. There is reason to bo enco raged with hope, that notwithstam ing tho schemes and villainies of tl Congressional Quirks, Gammons ar Snaps, in behalf of tho Titmou satraps, we shall have a good accoui of tho manner in which tho battlo the Uuiou and the Constitution h been once moro fought in that po tion of the country. THE WESTERN STATES. From tho far Western States con tho words of cheer and tho indie tions of success. Our friends California und Oregou promise "bo in at the death" of radicalist and mnko their shouts of victo heard East of tho mountains. MICHIGAN. In our own State, "tho work go bravely on." Wo havo cheering a counts from all sections. Our fricn are activo and determined, and if t! State is not redeemed from t' blight of radicalism which has long been upon it, it will not from the want of energy and want notion on tho part of our nob hearted Democ.acy. They are ma iug excellent local nominations, ai zealously working for their succe: Let them "fail not, falter not, wea not in well-doing." [Detroit Free Press.
