Charles.Clinton has boen appointed Trea? surer of the Branch Mint? and Assistant Treasurer of the United States at New Or? leans. NBW Om.BANS, May 19.-Until last night the adjoining city of Jefferson, though in? cluded in the metropolitan police district, has refused to accept the metropolitan force, offering armed resistance. Tho metropolitans of this city mustered 300 men, who were deta?cd, to take charge of Jefferson precinct. They ruade a movement about 10 o'clock on the municipal buildings of Jefferson, which woro filled with armed citizens. A small battle ensued, when twelve or. fourteen metropolitans were wounded, two thought dangerously. The poli?t?.retired. Gov. Warmouth called upon General Mower for troops. One company, which was furnished this morning, marched quickly to the municipal buildings, meeting with, no opposition, and installed tho metro? politans in possession. Tho citizens of Jef? ferson are considerably excited. No de? monstration was made ' against the troops, though tho police force driven off was four times as large as the body of soldiers. None of the citizens are believed to be hurt, being protected by the market house. The elec? tion was quietly progressing to-day. The Jeffersonian authorities, in resisting tho metropolitan police, wereentirely wrong, in vipw of the fact that the Supreme Court had decided that the metropolitan organi? sations were legal. It is stated, however, that the metropolitans commenced firing on the Jeffersonians, last night, without stating their business or who they were. It appears, from all accounts, that the number of Jef? fersonians engaged in tho melee last night were only eight or ten. A largo number of citizens wore assembled this morning, but on the approach of tho military quietly dis? persed. Accompanying tho infautry were two howitzers, all under the command of Gen. Mower in person, accompanied by Gov. Warmouth and Police Superintendent Cain. After tho metropolitaus obtained possession, they proceeded to avenge their defeat of last night upon unoffending by? stander?, numbers of whom were badly beaten with policemen's clubs. Citizens wore arrested indiscriminately. Among those beaten were an old gray-headed spec? tator and a butcher standing quietly at his market stall. Considerable excitement is still existing in Jefferson, and ono company of troops remains there. CHABLEBTON, May 19.-Arrived-Steamer Prometheus, Philadelphia; schooner D. Talbot, Rockport.

A strenuous effort was made iu the Anti Slavery Convention, on Wednesday, to re? vive expiring prejudices concerning the con? dition of society in the South, with especial reference to the rights and interests of co? lored citizens and Northern "loyalists." Ono of the expelled Georgia legislators was asked whether he considered his life safe in that State, and he responded that no mau's life, who stands on the loyal side, is safe in Georgia, outside of tho largo cities. Tho question was pressed iu other forms, and always with a somewhat similar result; tho ovideut aim being to produce an impression that Ku Klux and rebels still dominate in the South, and that the staunch Republi? can, white or black, is all the time in jeo? pardy. Mr. Wendell Phillips likened the white Southerner to "tho bull-dog that, having boen taught for twenty years to spring at every passer-by, could not chango his nature in a day." The ladies were equally ferocious; a colored Mrs. Harper declaring that "there is no civilized country in tho world whero there has been so much mur? dering as has been going on receutly at the South." For the object of these represen? tations wc have not far to seek. A case against Georgia and the unreconstructed States is desired HS an excuse for harsh action, and thc story of murder for political causes is the best that can be coucocted for the purpose. We aro more than skeptical ou this sub? ject. We do not behove these tales of whole? sale murder and oppression, nor do we give credence to thc allegation that "loyalists' aro systematically persecuted and huutec down. There was a time, undoubtedly when in some localities a hostile spirit rai high, and wheu tho assertion of Republie?i opiuiou involved moro or less peril; bu trustworthy evideuco seems to show tba this state of things no longer exists. So fa: as we can judge, life and property are quiti as secure at the South as at the North Taking population into account, we are cou viuced that tho per ccntago of criuio is ni greater any whero in the South, and certaiul; not in Georgia, than in tho North or West For every murder committed there, wo wi! undertake to find a murder hero. For ever; outrage that admits of verification in Geor gia, we will trace a parallel outrage in lu diana or New York. Nay, we uro persuadei that, all things considered, there is les crime in Virginia, in South Carolina, i Alabama, and oven in Georgia, than in thi State, or in other parts of the North. Thi city could easily supply a chapter of borr?n of recent date, which.* by a party of reasor. ing Southern observers, might cite as prool of savagery"and demoralization. Such a application of l'acte would be nu warran tee but if woiild bc not less legitimate than th endeavor of the Auti-Slav?ry 'Society ? natics to arraign the'whole'South' forth acts of its criminal class. It is absurd t look for a greater average of virtue, e greater immunity from crime there than ^ are contented with here' What Georg: and its neighbors may fairly plead is, thi in respect of offences against person au property, they have nothing to fear froi comparison with Massachusetts or Michigai And this is all wo are entitled to expect. But, we are told, the South does not wc come loud-tongueel loyalists as cordially i they think they should be welcomed. M Forney, who has boon spying out tho nake ness of tho land in company with a par like unto himself, publicly complains th they went about without being worshippe He does not allege that they were insulte He does not pretend that they had any a prehension as to their personal safety. I does not deny that homes await all who sei them with a decent respect for the feel in and opinious of tho present populatio But ho objects that tho entire South d not take him and his friends at their ov valuation, and that it receives coldly tho who go there as professional politicians, who insist, when settling, that they shall esteemed us tho only loyal, tho only rigl eons, members of tho community. The objections and complaints are very foolis In the first place, Southern citizens have good a right as Northern citizens to choc their company and friends, and may as pi perly discriminate in their welcome to no comers. In the next placo, tho men who South expecting to make a business of po tics, aud who denounce o very ouo who ; fuses to vote their ticket, are a nuisance any locality, and are not entitled any wh< to courtesy or consideration. Tho South should be judged, not by feeling toward demagogues and adventure but by its treatmont of strangers of a ? nationality who go there in good faith, p pared to settle down and become uso citizens. In regard to this class, wo see reason to doubt that they are gladly ceived, or that they sharo the protection good laws, administered impartially and fectively. There may bo exceptional loci ties, but so there are in tho West. Indei the conditions of welcomo in Virginia Georgia do not essentially differ from thi which obtain in Kansas or Minnesota.

Tho Branch Office ia designed to give us tho full benefits of an cn tiroly HOME COMPANY, by investing in the State all tho funds received in it. In fact, it is better than a now company, because thc PIEDMONT is a BUCCOSS already established, with ample capital and assets. So far, Edgefield hoads the list, FOUR HUN? DRED persons having insured in this favorite Southern Companv in tho last six months. Abbe? ville numbers little lesa than TWO HUNDRED. Will not the people of Columbia, and other sec? tions of thc State, emulate the example of these two Districts, hy coming forward, without delay, and take out policies in this Companv, and secure to themselves tho benefits of the BRANCH OF? FICE, by having it located at Columbia? Tho Piedmont has declared a DIVIDEND OF FORTY PER CENT. The dividend could have safely been larger, but with tho prudence and cau? tion which has over guided this Company, it has doomed it propor, hoing tho first dividend, to hold a surplus beyond tho reservo fuud. In short, tho Piedmont has no superior, and with a BRANCH OFFICE in our midst, there can surely bo no possible excuse to justify a Southern mau to commence, or continue, to send his money oil" for Lifo Insurance.
